Though Gerald was pretty much at the level of a Chakra King now—meaning that favonovel.com was at the top of the world—there were still many things that surprised him. For one, it hadn’t occurred to favonovel.com that Mila would get so strong throughout favonovel.com absence.
Lifting his hand, favonovel.com stared at his burnt palm… To think that the searing aura from Mila’s body was actually able to breach his thunder essential qi with such ease…
As Gerald released a long sigh, over ten ghostly and strange-looking ships swiftly appeared before him, completely blocking his path in seconds…
Following that, it didn’t take long for Master Ghost, Carlos, and the others to notice their presence as well.
Walking over to stand behind Gerald—who was already staring at the ships with his arms against his back—everyone then watched rather curiously as a white-haired old man—alongside ten other middle-aged people—leaped off one of the ships before slowly descending toward the ship that Gerald and the others were all on.
Now that they had a good look at the old man, both Carlos and Julian’s eyes widened as they muttered in unison, “That… That’s the leading priests from the Ringmasters of Obliteration!”
“The Ringmasters of Obliteration?” asked Gerald who clearly wasn’t familiar with that name.
As the leading priest gently stepped onto Gerald’s boat, favonovel.com laughed before saying, “Indeed! As they said, I’m the leading priest! Regardless, it’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Crawford! If I recall correctly, you tested your power with the aid of the Sceolium a few days back, correct? Well, when the Ringmasters of Obliteration learned that there was yet another Chakra King in the world, they instantly grew excited!”
Watching as the leading priest laughed aloud again, Gerald then placed his palms together before replying, “You flatter me, sir. However, I do believe that your arrival here today isn’t just for the sake of congratulating me, correct?”
“Hahaha! You’re rather straightforward, Mr. Crawford! However, you are correct! I’m here in person with an important mission from the Ringmasters of Obliteration!” replied the leading priest, choosing not to beat around the bush either.
Looking into the polite elder’s clear eyes, Gerald couldn’t help but have a good impression of him.
Due to that, favonovel.com had no problem with inviting the elder into the cabin.
Once inside, the leading priest wasted no time and instantly said, “Since you’ve probably only heard snippets about the Ringmasters of Obliteration before, I wonder if you’d be willing to allow me to give a more detailed introduction about ourselves? Just to make things as clear as possible between us!”
Watching as the leading priest then took a sip of tea before smiling, Gerald casually replied, “I’m all ears.”
“Excellent! See, the Ringmasters of Obliteration is an organization that’s existed for thousands of years, and it’s responsible for coordinating all the unbalanced forces around the world, just to ensure that an objective balance is always maintained. As the name implies, the organization consists of representatives who are sent out by the most powerful people across the globe. A united nation, if you will! Hahaha!”
“Regardless, there are currently seven extremely powerful people leading the Ringmasters of Obliteration, and they were chosen for good reason. All seven of them have managed to enter the Rune Realm, you see, making them the cream of the crop. With that in mind, their common discussions together oftentimes influences the direction of how things happen within the cultivation realm. Also, while they each have their own regions, it should be noted that none of them ever interfere with what happens within the world’s secular society. It’s simply a limitation under the principles of the Ringmasters of Obliteration!”
“Moving on to its members, the seven powerful people include Murray Click, the King of Northern Europe, Petros Ambers, the King of the Northern Dessert, Yellowleaf Laelia, the King of Southern Island, Sergius Leuke, the King of East Asia, Odin Duras, the King of Northern America, Feit Foreswift, the King of the Ocean, and as for the last one… I’m sure you know favonovel.com well, Mr. Crawford! Hahaha! He’s Daryl Crawford, the King of South Asia!”
Upon hearing that last name, Gerlad found his eyelids twitching slightly.
As it turned out, Daryl had not only hidden himself well, but favonovel.com had also been busy to the point where favonovel.com eventually managed to become the ruler of South Asia… That explained why favonovel.com could do whatever favonovel.com pleased.
Noticing a hint of resentment in Gerald’s eyes at the mention of Daryl, the Priest Jenkins then added, “Each of the Chakra Kings owns magical powers and are pretty much omnipotent. Due to that, they each possess near-endless honor as well. With all that out of the way, I’m here to tell you that you’re now one of the eight most powerful people in the world! In relation to that, the Ringmasters of Obliteration naturally wish for you to send us a representative, just as the others have done. Do you agree to that?”
“Well, since all this is for the sake of keeping the cultivation realm stable, there’s no real reason for me to object. With that said, I agree!” replied Gerald.
“Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Crawford! Speaking of which, we learned that the Sacrasolis Palace—that you’re currently leading—is located North in Weston. With that in mind, the Ringmasters of Obliteration have given you the title of King of the North, a title of which they will be using to address you from now on!” said Priest Jenkin as favonovel.com took out a wooden token and placed it before Gerald…
On it, were the characters, ‘King of the North’!
