Chapter 2479

"That's honestly the main reason why I finally

decided to show up again. You aren't a match for

Daryl, so charging straight into his lair is pretty much

just suicide. While it's true that I could save you if

things go awry a t the last moment, I'm a bit worried

about having to show up before—and potentially

fight—Daryl and Sanchez!" added Finnley.

"Is this a worry regarding the Soluna Deus Sect...?"

asked Gerald who more or less saw where Finnley

was coming from.

"Indeed. Though the Soluna Deus Sect has already

learned about me, they still haven't pinpointed where

I am. With that in mind, until you get stronger, my

best bet would be t o remain hidden as long as

possible!" replied Finnley with a nod.

"Stronger... Are you suggesting that I can enter the

Deitus Realm and potentially become an Angelord?

But I don't think I have an angelic root..." muttered

Gerald.

"You don't. However, not only do you possess the

Herculean Primordial Spirit, but you were born with

it! In other words, you bear an incomparable

advantage against other cultivators, and it's also the

reason why you're progressing so rapidly! With that

said, if you work hard enough, you'll surely b e able

to enter the Deitus Realm without an angelic root

within five hundred years," explained Finnley.

"...Five... hundred...?! That's way too long!" exclaimed

Gerald. While he had initially thought that getting to

the Deitus Realm was unachievable for him, the fact

that it'd take him five hundred years to achieve that

now-possible goal was still shocking!

"I agree, and I'm worried that both of us would've

been exterminated by the Soluna Deus Sect by that

point. With that in mind, i n order to further hasten

that process, I'm thinking of planting an angelic root

inside you! Mind you, however, that the odds of

successfully doing that is abysmal..." replied Finnley.

"Planting... An angelic root?" asked Gerald who hadn't

heard of such a method before.

"Yep. Though you're knowledgeable regarding the

cultivation realm, you still know little about the

Deitus Realm. I guess now's as good a time as any for

you to tell you a bit more about this realm. Basically,

in order to enter the Deitus Realm and become an

Angelord, you need to fulfill three basic

requirements."

"Firstly, you need to be part of a group that possesses

innate angelic roots. For the second requirement,

once your angelic root i s further developed, you'll

have to withstand the calcination of spiritual fire to

transform your holy body into an Immortal Body! If

you can't attain an Immortal Body, you won't be able

to withstand the angelic power in your body. With

that in mind, if someone who doesn't have an

Immortal Body attempts to forcefully enter the Deitus

Realm, they'll straight up explode! Speaking of which,

your second uncle and disciple failed at the second

requirement," explained Finnley.

This left Gerald slightly dumbfounded by how

difficult it was to enter the Deitus Realm. No wonder

so many people hadn't heard of it before... After all,

very rarely did cultivators—like him and Darkwind—

possess angelic roots, and regular people who

possessed it never had the chance to cultivate!

Whatever the case was, Gerald then quickly asked,

"What's the third requirement?"

"Well, you'll need to receive the inheritance from a

Zearl as the final requirement. Only after you find a

compatible Zearl's spirit—called a deus spirit—and

you form a mutual connection with that spirit, will

you be granted the inheritance to become a true

Angelord. Following that, when you'll be able to

become a Zearl yourself will depend o n fate..."

"Either way, you should know that not only are Zearls

few and far between, but they almost never perish.

With that in mind, it's exceedingly difficult to locate a

deus spirit. However, not all is lost. I'm sure you've

heard about the disaster of the Dietus Realm. The

thing is, many Zearls fell during that time, so our odds

of finding one have actually increased! But yes, that's

the journey of becoming an Angelord... Just so you

know, many Angelords aren't even aware that there's

a fourth step to all this..." explained Finnley.

"I see... Either way, we need to plant the angelic root

within me first, right?" asked Gerald...
