Chapter 446: 416 Divine Light arrived

Little Bowl really gave me a surprising piece of good news; she actually has a way to help me use power within the Void Realm?

"How are you going to help me?" I asked.

"This is related to my power of communicating with all things in nature... and Right Positioning Heavenly Phenomena." Little Bowl explained, "My power not only allows me to become very lucky, but it can also bring misfortune to my enemies.

"Also, although it was difficult to manifest because I was with Sister Mazao in the past, I also have the power to make the people around me become lucky and in excellent condition."

I nodded; this is what the skill of Right Positioning Heavenly Phenomena is supposed to do.

Those with the Power of Heaven and Earth can follow the heavens and receive great power from the void, and when the time comes, heaven and earth work together. As long as they grasp the principles of nature’s operation, they can do things with half the effort, and any complex problems can be solved at a glance. In ancient times, wise rulers governed the country, ensuring timely weather, and people lived in peace and prosperity. Talented people emerged in large numbers, showing that this power is not only narrowly applied to oneself but can extend to anything related to oneself.

Mere mortals find it difficult to master the Power of Heaven and Earth, but by following someone with this power, they can also follow the heavens and receive the great power from the void, thriving in any situation; otherwise, they will face the sanction of heavens and experience misfortune.

"However, I can also achieve this. Your power, when bestowed upon others, might be like adding wings to a tiger, but when bestowed upon me, it might bring negligible results," I said.

If Right Positioning Heavenly Phenomena is the "Heaven and Earth of the weak," then Great Impermanence Heavenly Earth is the "Heaven and Earth of the strong." It’s reasonable for the weak to help other weak individuals, but to use it to strengthen the strong seems unreasonable.

"Generally, that might be true, but my Right Positioning Heavenly Phenomena is enhanced by the Power of Divine Seal Fragments. In the past, Sister Mazao could only achieve Space Transfer, but with my prayer power, she could even transfer between different eras," Little Bowl said. "Therefore, I should also be able to cover Mr. No.3 with my Right Positioning Heavenly Phenomena to help him adapt to the environment of the Void Realm.

"Mr. No.3 already has the passive blessing of the Power of Divine Seal Fragments, and with my blessing, theoretically, he should be able to use power within the Void Realm."

"I see. Even things that were originally impossible might become possible with the blessing of the Power of Divine Seal Fragments..." I agreed with Little Bowl’s theory. "Then there’s no time to waste, let’s try it out."

"Okay," Little Bowl said earnestly, "Mr. No.3, I’m going to start now."

Finishing her words, she tightly grasped my right hand with her two hands and then lowered her head, pressing her forehead firmly against the back of my right hand, as if silently praying.

Ten seconds passed, twenty seconds passed... time ticked by, and nothing seemed to happen. However, Little Bowl did not give up, and I did not impatiently interrupt her. No matter how long she wanted to try, I would patiently accompany her to the end.

Under this little girl’s pious praying posture, I inexplicably calmed down too, so tranquil that it seemed I could hear the beating of my own heart. But within the Void Realm, we existed as shadow forms, with no sweat flowing, nor any heartbeat. The only thing perceivable was the faint flow of grey mist around us.

Flow? It was only at this point that I realized I could actually capture the flow of the grey mist. Originally, the grey mist could only be confirmed visually, but now it seemed I could feel it with my skin.

And truly, it was bizarre. Even though I was standing still, I felt as if my body was also following the flow of the grey mist. Initially, there was a bit of awkwardness, like moving horizontally in a river flowing longitudinally. Slowly, my body seemed to automatically adjust to the direction of the river, gradually moving in alignment with the flow.

Before long, the resistance of the "river" disappeared completely, transforming into momentum. I felt my movement sensation was far stronger than before, even to the point where I almost lost my balance and fell to the ground. But soon, that out-of-control feeling also disappeared. I regained my balance within the "flow," like turbulent river water turning into a calm lake where I could swim freely at will.

I tried to raise my left hand, and at that moment, I felt I could unleash flames within this Void Realm.

No, I had actually already unleashed them.

In this spiritual time-space, my body was transformed from my spirit; and my spirit was my flames. Clearly, this was a very logical thing, but it wasn’t until now that I once again felt I could sense this point, feel the intangible, burning vigor of my own body.

Little Bowl at this moment also slowly raised her head and asked tentatively through telepathy, "Mr. No.3, how do you feel?"

"It worked," I replied, "You did it, Little Bowl. Thank you for your help."

"You’re welcome, Mr. No.3!" Little Bowl seemed unable to hide her joyous emotion, "That’s wonderful, I finally repaid you a little. All along, it’s been Mr. No.3 fulfilling my wishes, yet I could never reciprocate."

"Haven’t you always been helping me? You advised me on actions in the real world and helped me confirm the connections with the Void Realm, among other things."

Her very existence had provided irreplaceable critical support in saving Mazao earlier on, once becoming my confidence to retain Mazao in the end—and these words, I kept to myself for now without saying them out loud.

Little Bowl seemed to be able to see through my thoughts as she stared at me for a few seconds, then said as if embarrassed, "Those were just trivial, simple tasks."

"In any case... I may still need to rely on your wisdom in the future, so no need to be so modest," I said.

Hearing this, Little Bowl pondered for a moment, "In the future..."

"Do you already have a suggestion for me now?" I was curious.

"Yes, Mr. No.3," Little Bowl said, "You are currently troubled by the investigation into the Doomsday issue in the real world, aren’t you?"

I first nodded, then said, "You must have seen it in the memories I transmitted. As you saw, the Human Bureau is already destroyed, and Ying Lingyun is dead. Originally I planned to target the connection between Ying Lingyun and the unknown Blessed Monk, attempting to investigate clues related to Doomsday from there, but now I’ve hit a dead end and can only search for new directions."

"No, Mr. No.3, let me explain. It’s too early to give up on investigating the Human Bureau," Little Bowl said.

"Why is that?" I wondered, "The Human Bureau doesn’t exist anymore, and yet we still have to continue investigating it?"

"Sister Mazao’s historical investigation skill can be used to investigate the remnants of the Human Bureau," Little Bowl pointed out, "According to the Human Bureau information you have, Ying Lingyun was in charge of two Human Bureau locations, namely the secret base with Dr. Silver Mask, and the recently destroyed Human Bureau main site.

"The secret site doesn’t have much investigation value. Based on many pieces of information, it can be seen that during the time Ying Lingyun was in charge of the secret site, he didn’t have enough power in the Human Bureau. Therefore, his dealings with the unknown Blessed Monk didn’t happen there, and inside the secret site, Ying Lingyun shouldn’t have kept deeply hidden information, otherwise, Mr. No.3 would have already collected them from the bookshelf in the director’s office.

"Therefore, our next investigation target should be the Human Bureau main site."

"I need to remind you of something..." I said, "The independent reality space where the Human Bureau main site was located, unlike the secret site, doesn’t release people, objects, and things back into the real world after destruction. Instead, it destroys everything inside the space together with its collapse. So, we can’t investigate the Human Bureau main site."

Little Bowl shook her head, "You’re not returning to the independent reality space of the Human Bureau main site, but its original location."

"Original location?" I was suddenly enlightened.

"Great Impermanence Fa Zheng once mentioned that he originally knew the address of the Human Bureau main site, but lost the location when Ying Lingyun recently moved it to an independent reality space," Little Bowl said, "and Ying Lingyun most likely moved all personnel, equipment, and information during his relocation before death. Therefore, to others, the original site of the Human Bureau main site seems to hold no investigation value.

"However, for Sister Mazao, who has historical investigation skills, just having such a location is enough to uncover loads of information. Even if the people and things at the original site are moved away, it doesn’t matter. It’s akin to how you guys investigated the ’clinic’ of the weird man manufacturer in the past.

"During Ying Lingyun’s tenure in charge of the Human Bureau main site, he must have gained considerable power to act with blatant disregard for consequences, to the point where you could say the Human Bureau was his one-man show. Where he acted most arbitrarily, hid most deeply, was most guarded, and had the most advanced equipment, there might well remain loads of crucial clues."

"Not just clues related to Doomsday..." My perspective broadened, "but also on how Ying Lingyun acquired the White Tiger Killing Power, and how he allied with the Taoyuan Village Master... these might also be investigable."

"The Human Bureau main site is the Human Bureau’s most secret place, Ying Lingyun also had the Power of Divine Seal Fragments in his life. Even with historical investigation skills, there might be significant obstacles. However, no matter what, investigating there is surely the right step," Little Bowl concluded.

As we wrapped up our conversation here, footsteps sounded again from the depths of the mist.

Meanwhile, the Master of Divine Seal seemed to slowly open their eyes.

Little Bowl and I looked over in that direction in unison.
