While Gerald could already tell that Peter was trying to hint something to him, favonovel.com just couldn’t get what it was.
Of course he’d be overjoyed if his grandfather was still alive! Was there even a need to ask such a thing?
The fact that his grandfather’s token of the holy water suddenly made its appearance here only made favonovel.com feel even more certain that something had happened to him. In relation to that, favonovel.com hoped even more now that his grandfather was still among the living.
All this made Gerald wonder whether his stalker had relations with the pledge of the holy water this entire time.
From what the Mackusion had shown them, could it be that the mysterious person had attended the pledge of the holy water first before killing off everyone else there? Following that, favonovel.com must have headed to the underground palace in the desert before killing off the giant anaconda and taking Liemis’s body away. With that done, the stalker then dealt with the rest of Gerald’s family not too long before he, Zyla, and Peter had arrived…
Since favonovel.com couldn’t spot his grandfather’s body, Gerald had a gut feeling that favonovel.com wasn’t dead, but rather captured like the rest of his family.
Needless to say, Gerald also knew for a fact that the stalker’s end goal had something to do with him.
From breaking spiritual artifacts apart to killing the massive anaconda, the mysterious master coming after favonovel.com seemed extremely capable. With that in mind, Gerald had been thinking about the possibilities of dealing with favonovel.com throughout his way back from Mayberry.
“…It’s nothing. Anyway, you shouldn’t be thinking about all this at the moment. It’s better to have peace of mind while you restore your Dehlere Foundation. Once you’ve recovered it, we’ll be depending entirely on you, so focus on the task at hand first!” replied Peter as favonovel.com patted Gerald on the shoulder, simultaneously refraining from going any further with what favonovel.com had wanted to say.
Hearing that, Gerald chose not to think too much into it. After all, after so many things had happened, Gerald was now extremely anxious to restore his Dehlere Foundation as soon as possible. Once favonovel.com succeeded, he’d use it to better inherit the powers from the first stage of his awakening. With that done, there’d be no need for favonovel.com to remain so passive and uncertain anymore.
With that in mind, Gerald headed off to help Zyla.
According to Zyla, the Mackusion was a spiritual artifact that had been condensed from a stream of energy from heaven and earth. After a long time, it eventually turned into a stone with great transformative energy.
Emitting great energy and having distinct formation patterns all over the body, the Mackusion had the ability to predict the future.
However, if Gerald wished to travel through time and space, the Mackusion would have to be broken open. In doing so, all of its energy would be fully released. With the help of the dragon blood jade pendant’s immense ability to control, Gerald would surely be able to achieve time and space travel without a hitch.
Even so, Gerald could only do all of this once before the Mackusion would be rendered useless.
Regardless, with Gerald’s help, Zyla was naturally able to speed up the refining process of the Mackusion. By the time the Mackusion was completely refined, midnight wasn’t too far off.
“Alright, Gerald, I’ll be standing guard over you later so that you can enter the Mackusion’s teleportation circle with peace of mind. Before that, however, I cannot stress enough that you have to remember all the requirements that I’ve told you before this. Each and every one of them! Do I have myself clear?” said Zyla.
“Loud and clear! Speaking of which, will I still be able to access all my training and skills once I’m in the past?” asked Gerald.
“You should be able to. Just be careful not to change the end results of things you already know will happen. For example, while it should technically be fine if you teach someone—who’s been hostile to you in the past—a lesson, just be careful not to end up killing them!” replied Zyla.
“Got it!” said Gerald with a firm nod.
“Remember, you’ll be remaining in the past for seven days, no more, no less. With that in mind, you’ll have to undergo the baptism of heaven right after that time frame! Also, do not allow anyone to casually approach you. After all, you have no idea who, or when your Dehlere Foundation was destroyed. Because of that, you’ll need to be extra wary with whoever you come across with!” reminded Zyla.
After nodding, Gerald then walked into the teleportation circle, prompting Zyla to begin activating the power of the dragon blood jade pendant.
Shortly after, the circle began glowing a faint blue… before completely enveloping Gerald’s entire body!
His body now engulfed in light, Gerald found himself spinning endlessly as favonovel.com felt an immense force gushing onto him!
“Remember to hold your breath! And just endure it for a bit longer! Concentrate!” shouted Zyla.
