Chapter 595: Chapter 493 Reos

"So... Honorable old sir."

Fang Xing looked at the old man, a trace of a smile appearing on his face, as if the person’s appearance was unsurprising.

After all, besides the Divine of Darkness, a Secret History Worm had also fallen here, significantly affecting the Secret History Divine.

Moreover, being in the Ether Realm, the other party was sure to come!

Perhaps even other divines would cast their eyes here as well!

However, Fang Xing was not afraid at all: "What do you have to offer me?"

After all, he had solved a formidable enemy for the other party.

Just by observing the actions of the Shadow of Raven, one could tell it harbored ill intent towards the Secret History Divine.

Fang Xing did the work, so naturally, he deserved a reward.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t hesitate to take it himself.

"Naturally!"

The old man adjusted his glasses and suddenly snapped off one of his fingers, handing it to Fang Xing.

Fang Xing accepted it calmly, watching as the fingertip shimmered with light, instantly transforming into a crystal, with Secret History Worms burrowing inside.

If the previous piece was the Divine Crystal of the Angel of Darkness, then this piece was the Divine Crystal of a Divine!

In terms of value, how much more precious could it be?

Fang Qiong just glanced at it and felt a flood of secret historical insights drilling into her mind.

These included language, art from the Gulan era... as well as court secrets... even some secret spells and forbidden rituals...

A vast amount of historical knowledge rushed in, making her feel dizzy.

"Hmm. This item is exactly what I need, so I’ll accept it without hesitation."

Fang Xing calmly collected the worm crystal, appearing very satisfied.

In the future, he planned to ascend to the position of a supreme divine, which would undoubtedly require studying the essence of the Six Divines.

Now, with the Divine of Darkness confined by himself, the Divine of History had also divided a portion of essence for him.

The progress was already a third complete!

As for the remaining four, whether by intimidation or force... wielding the power of having imprisoned the Divine of Darkness, his chances of success were quite high!

’Next up, naturally, is to polish the Six Void Skill to Grandmaster Perfection... Then, I will absorb the essence of the Six Divines to become a true "Sun" of the Ether divine!’

’No matter where the creator is or what preparations they have... as long as I accomplish this, they are sure to die!’

Fang Xing felt his heart surge with emotion.

If he won this battle of life and faith, the benefits gained would be immeasurable!

...

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, decades passed.

Black Ring City.

Inside an ore factory.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The huge melter resembled the gaping maw of a monster, constantly devouring various fine ores.

Beside the boiler, several pitch-black figures were tirelessly swinging their shovels, constantly feeding large amounts of coal into the boiler.

From morning till night, there was almost no pause.

Not until the whistle blew and another shift came to replace them, did old Benson heave a long sigh and wiped his face with a towel.

On his face, coal dust and sweat mingled together, making it indistinguishable.

Even the towel was pitch black.

Dragging his tired body out of the factory, several nearby coworkers were either too exhausted to speak or managed to say a few words.

"Have you heard? John died..."

"So soon? He’d only been in the factory for two years..."

"They say he caught black lung..."

Old Benson didn’t even blink, carrying a paper bag with black bread back to his room.

"Cough, cough..."

The next moment, a violent tearing sensation arose from his lungs, causing him to cough uncontrollably, even spitting out blood.

"Am I... am I going to die too?"

Old Benson wasn’t actually old, not even forty, but he had worked in various factories for over twenty years.

In this era, that was quite remarkable, earning him the nickname "Undying Benson," though it was more of a teasing moniker from his coworkers.

Old Benson didn’t know why, but his life force was exceptionally vigorous. He had fallen ill several times, nearly dying, but ultimately survived.

But this time, was it finally the end of the road?

"Cough, cough... if this life is ending, then... no... I must live, I must survive!"

Old Benson didn’t know why his will to live was so strong.

He struggled to brace himself on the table, intending to retrieve the Medicine Powder hidden under his pillow—a concoction sold by a wandering Witch, said to be made from Crystal Sand of white bats mixed with special herbs, dried and crushed, capable of curing many ills.

However...

His body seemed truly at its limit, staggering and feeling the world spinning, he fell heavily.

Bam!

Old Benson hit the ground headfirst, and his vision went black.

In this border between life and death, an unusual light burst from his eyes.

"I... True Illusion..."

"Actually being dragged by an ant, entering the path struggle..."

"I am old Benson... No, I am Reos... Dharma Master’s Great Ability..."

"Damn... This reincarnation actually took so many years to awaken."

Old Benson slowly turned over and stood up, sitting on the chair, gasping heavily: "The mortal body... is too frail."

As for that pack of Witch Medicine Powder, he knew just by smelling it that it was a total fraud!

"No way! I haven’t won yet, which means that worm is still there, he’s still alive! I not only have to survive but also must gain power! This world, affected by my presence... must have Extraordinary Power!"

Old Benson—no, Reos’ face turned fierce.

Suddenly, his expression changed, and he flicked his right hand, tapping his forehead three times.

In Reos’ vision, a profound Blue Sea emerged before him, from which a bubble surfaced from the bottom of the sea.

After bursting open, a cluster of words appeared:

[Suffering torments my body, my inspiration leaps to the dream... I need a key, to pass through that invisible gate...]

[Cut open the skin of the real world, let the hidden things gush forth...]

...

"As expected... the extraordinary secrets, are they within this?"

Reos pondered deeply.

This Deep Sea and the bubble are the "Golden Finger" he crafted for himself.

Although the secret technique executed by that worm was far beyond his imagination, creating a world is inherently part of his authority.

He paid more to concoct some conveniences for himself, which he could manage.

’Given the difficulty of awakening in this world, that worm should not have awakened yet... After all, his level is far inferior to mine... But he can truly survive... Could he have reincarnated into a wealthy merchant or some noble family?’

With this thought, Reos felt anxious.

He must quickly obtain Extraordinary Power!

Fortunately, his "Golden Finger" had this capability.

This Deep Sea is actually the ocean of subconscious, within which the bubbles represent guidance.

Decipher the guidance, follow the instructions, and one might gain what they desire.

Moreover, the Deep Sea’s capabilities aren’t limited to this; more secrets will unfold once he steps into Transcendence!

"Beneath the real world, there’s an extraordinary world hidden... It seems that the transcendent of this realm is secretive, concealed by the authorities."

Reos, being the Thirteen Realms Heavenly Immortal Dharma Master’s Great Ability, comprehended quickly.

"To involve oneself in transcendence, one must go through dreams... In the dreams, through some gate?"

"Luckily, this threshold isn’t high."

Reos felt relieved, given that old Benson had no savings, had to rely on a weekly paycheck to barely sustain himself, and occasionally faced the landlord’s rent demands. If it required massive spending, he might have opted for hanging or the prospective Profession of robber.

"Dreams, eh? Although I haven’t touched upon transcendence yet, my mastery, subconscious are apex-level, in dreams even more can employ some specials..."

Reos forcefully endured the coarse taste of black bread, finishing his dinner and drinking a glass of water; this body was ill and needed nutrition, needed rest.

Moments later, he lay on the bed and entered slumber: "It’s a pity... ’Deep Sea’ can only provide a hint every once in a while."

...

In the dream.

Everything was bizarre and colorful.

Reos collected his mind, presenting his being within the dream: "Indeed... controlling the subconscious isn’t difficult for me."

He glanced around to find himself in the ruins of a deserted factory: "Next... is to search for the invisible gate, to access the extraordinary world."

Reos, being of Dharma Master class, had remarkable insight and knowledge.

Guided by instruction, it didn’t take much time to anchor into his dream and enter the Ether Realm, becoming a so-called ’wanderer’.

Boom!

In an instant, the world transformed.

In the Ether Realm, scenes even more peculiar than dreams were visible everywhere, with six pure lights ever enveloping the high sky.

Above the six pure lights, there was a pure white Celestial Body, appearing Immortal, silently standing.

"Ah... the taste of the extraordinary."

A hint of joy flashed in Reos’ eyes: "Just let me get familiar, I definitely can..."

"Illegal wanderer, you dared trespass into the Ether Realm without permission?"

At this moment, a female bald-headed descended flapping wings from the sky, fixing her gaze on Reos.

"Transcendent..."

Reos’ heart skipped, sensing this bald-headed woman’s danger: "What illegal wanderer?"

"Nowadays, the Ether Realm is occupied by our Esoteric Sect, it’s our sect’s territory... While roaming in our land, you are ’illegally wandering’..."

The bald-headed woman regarded Reos, suddenly showing sympathy: "Looks like... you know little about the secret realm, must have passively entered as an unlucky soul."

"Yes... yes..."

Reos’ heart stirred, feigning helplessness: "I... I’m just a coal miner, no idea how I got here."

"No worries, sometimes mortals arrive here via dreams, I’ll take you to meet our Heart Department’s Dharma King, once she verifies, it’s all good."

The bald-headed woman appeared somewhat kind.

"Heart Department... Dharma King?" Reos genuinely didn’t understand.

"Yes, our Esoteric Sect has six departments, each led by a Dharma King. In our Heart Department, everything is under ’Firefly Dharma King’s’ command. If she wants you alive, you live; if she wants you dead, you die!"

The bald-headed woman explained matter-of-factly.
