“Right, you are. In order to successfully get past the first step, we need to look no further than the general’s tomb!” replied Finnley.
“There’s an angelic root in there?” asked Gerald.
“Negative. Angelic roots can’t exist on their own. They either have to be innate or planted using a special ingredient, and it’s just our luck that such an ingredient exists in the general’s tomb. The ingredient is the dragon spirit pearl, more commonly known as the dragon internal pellet! After consuming it, your body will change, and your Herculean Primordial Spirit will behave like an angelic root has been planted within it. If things go well, you’ll have succeeded in your first step in entering the Deitus Realm!” replied Finnley.
“I wonder if Sanchez and his disciples are trying to obtain the dragon spirit pearl…” muttered Gerald.
“They are. After all, the object was formed in the body of a spiritual dragon who cultivated into the Deitus Realm after its death. The spiritual dragon itself is extremely powerful, and it’s even capable of remolding a person’s body! By consuming that pellet, not only will you gain access to an angelic root, but you’ll also be able to strengthen your holy body and power in general. It truly is a great treasure!”
“With all that said, it only makes sense why Sanchez wants the dragon spirit pearl so much. If you remember, I’ve told you that the Sanchez you met was only a split-self with greatly reduced cultivation. The reason is because his true body has been destroyed ages ago, and favonovel.com needs the dragon spirit pearl to rebuild his real body!” explained Finnley.
“No wonder the disciples let their guards down the second I told them I was only after the Yinblood pellets! They had a much bigger goal…! I have one final question, though… Since you’re not letting me spy on the Dark Moon Biological Group, I’m assuming they’re just that strong?” asked Gerald.
“That, and their background is extremely mysterious. I’ve been keeping watch over this group for the longest time, and similar to Daryl’s case, they’re invisible most of the time. That aside, I’ve gathered hints that there may be Angelords helping them, so it’s best that you refrain from offending them for now!” replied Finnley.
“To think such extraordinary people exist within the Dark Moon Biological Group..!” muttered Gerald with a nod.
“Well, they did inherit the Deitus Realm’s ability to use alchemy to create pellets and spirit tinctures. With so little holy spirits remaining in the secular world, you can only imagine just how tempting it is for cultivators and Angelords to serve them. After all, the lack of holy spirits is what prevents so many cultivators from entering the Deitus Realm! With all that said, I’m sure you’ll get killed by their experts before you can even properly begin investigating them!”
Laughing bitterly, Finnley then sighed before adding, “Honestly, I had only planned to meet up with you when you entered the general’s tomb… Try to snatch the dragon spirit pearl for you at the last minute, you know? Unfortunately, your presumptuous behavior tonight has forced me to have a change of plans!”
“True enough, had you not showed up, I would’ve surely attempted to spy 011 that eldest young mistress!” muttered Gerald as favonovel.com shivered slightly.
“Regardless, what should we do next, Finnley? Since Sanchez’s disciples have invited so many experts over and I now need to acquire the dragon spirit pearl, should we still join forces with them?” asked Gerald. “Of course! The journey into the general’s tomb is exceedingly dangerous, especially with that headless general roaming about. It has cultivated for over a thousand years, and possesses an emperor’s destiny until it becomes a devil!”
“A devil..? And yet it possesses an emperor’s destiny?” replied Gerald in surprise.
“Indeed. Don’t you know who the headless general is..?”
