Chapter 2421

“It appears that you do as well! ” replied the slightly surprised Gerald.

“Indeed… I accidentally learned of them while investigating the deaths of my heirs. Though I’ve been a Domiensch Master for the longest time and can even be considered to be a top master within the cultivation realm, to this very day, the Sun League has given me much more pressure than I’d like to admit. Regardless, from what I can guess, the Sun League appears to be an ancient sect that houses a plethora of experts!” replied Saint Darkwind.

“Well, they’re an extremely powerful organization, so you pretty much guessed correctly. Either way, the truth is, my lover was kidnapped by the Sun League. With that in mind, her kidnapping was the main reason I entered the cultivation realm. I still haven’t given up on unraveling that organization’s mysteries and saving her! That aside, I now get why you want my help so much. It seems we both have a bone to pick with the Sun League!”

“Truly so… While I don’t know much about them, I do know how strong they are… For one, just have a look at this part of my face. It looks kind of bruised, no? It’s an injury they inflicted on me when I first encountered them! At the time, the night was dark and I was distressed since I had yet to find a clue about my heirs’ deaths. While I was drinking by the sea, I suddenly heard a commotion out in the deep blue. Sensing a great power as well, I decided to fly over to have a closer look…” explained Saint Darkwind.

“It wasn’t long after when I saw a giant magic artifact covered in bronze sinking into the sea!

Unfortunately, I was a bit too depressed at the time, so I didn’t think much of it. Instead, I simply hit it with my palm to see what the artifact would do when all of a sudden, it began glowing! Though I quickly had to shield my eyes from the light, I did manage to see two vague figures who had white clothes on pointing at me and the next thing I knew, I was vomiting blood! While I passed out almost immediately after, I’ll never forget that terrifying level of essential qi.”

“It gave me the impression that they were deities who could give and take life away with the simplest gestures They were simply unwinnable against! Regardless, that was the incident that caused this long lasting bruise on my face. Because of those two, I had to recuperate for the longest time! Speaking of which, I did notice something strange after I was injured by them, Mr. Crawford… Essentially, after I got hurt, I soon discovered that I had attained another level of cultivation! It has mystified me to this day.”

“Oh? Are there any other strange things that happened?” asked Gerald, his interest now piqued.

“Well… When Ryder battled me by the Red River in Fyre Cave, he tricked me and managed to get some river water on me! At the time, I was horrified and thought I’d surely die there. To my shock, when I forcefully used the diffusion method, I came to realize that I was capable of diffusing the river water! It was something I hadn’t even dared to think about doing before!” replied Saint Darkwind.

“I see… The Sun League sounds more and more legendary every time I hear about it… Speaking of which, the name, ‘Sun League’ is only a popularized name within the secular world. That isn’t really the organization’s name! That aside, I’m certain that we can’t tackle the organization with just the two of us.

After all, I’m guessing that its members have already entered another cultivation realm, which means that they’re currently at a level we could never dream of attaining!” said Gerald with a slight frown.

While it was true that Gerald had the Herculean Primordial spirit, now that he knew a bit more about the cultivation realm, he had come to realize that attaining further levels of cultivation had nothing to do with one’s talent or primordial spirit.

With that in mind, until his cultivation level was raised, Gerald wasn’t even going to dream about being able to take on the members of the Sun League.

Whatever the case was, after hearing what Gerald had to say, the dumbfounded Saint Darkwind was prompted to mutter, “Are… You suggesting that they’ve entered the Deitus Realm…?!”
