Chapter 588: Let's Hold a Grand Funeral as Compensation

~7 min read 1,327 words

"The density is off? Oh right, how did I not think of that? You have the Ring of the Balance, you can directly measure the ratio of mass to volume. If the density is off, then either it's hollow inside, or it's not rock." Lord Nai Ge slapped his waist muscle and said, somewhat surprised.

"Besides that one rock being off, are there any others?" Lord Nai Ge asked again.

Seeing Ange pointed at a rock not far away and said: "That one's off, mass XX, volume XX, it's not stone."

Lord Nai Ge quickly calculated the density and said: "This density is very close to magic crystal, it's definitely not rock. Duroken, go over and check, see if it's hollow inside."

Duroken went out past the Stairway to Heaven, then with a whoosh turned into smoke, and when he reappeared, he was already at the edge of that rock. His Midas Touch Staff tapped the rock once, and his eyes lit up almost immediately.

Soon Duroken returned, and said to everyone: "You'll never guess what this is."

Lord Nai Ge curled his lip: "What's there to guess? If it's not hollow, then it's ice. Ice has a higher density than magic crystal, mixed with some air pockets, it should reach this value. It can't possibly be all magic crystal, right?"

"Uh... Lord Nai Ge, you guessed right... it's all magic crystal." Duroken said dejectedly.

He had wanted to give everyone a fright, but although Lord Nai Ge hadn't guessed magic crystal, he had already said the word magic crystal, so the shock value wouldn't be high.

"Pfft—all magic crystal?" Lord Nai Ge said in disbelief. According to this density value, if the inside was magic crystal, then the whole thing was magic crystal. What an enormous figure that would be?

"Thirty thousand five hundred tons." Seeing Ange measured it with the Ring of the Balance.

"Ten thousand tons... how many magic crystals is that? I know why the Sorcerer Alliance never lacks magic crystals now. If we took a rock like this back, it'd be tens of thousands of tons. Hand me a magic crystal." Lord Nai Ge said.

Duroken took out a magic crystal and handed it to him. Lord Nai Ge held it up in front of Seeing Ange and asked: "How heavy?"

"Five grams." Seeing Ange said.

"Alright, thirty thousand five hundred tons equals six point one billion." Lord Nai Ge calculated instantly, then stuck out his tongue and said: "We'll never lack magic crystals from now on."

Such a huge rock couldn't even fit in Seeing Ange's Divine Domain, so in the end they could only tie it up with the Lifesaving Rope, bind it to the back of the Sorcerer Stairway to Heaven, and drag it forward slowly.

"Thanks to the Lifesaving Rope, otherwise there'd be nothing to tie it with." It was the first time Lord Nai Ge felt the Goddess of Redemption was actually somewhat useful—at least her divine artifact was quite practical.

Moving forward all the way, Ange saw several more small rocks with unusual densities. Because the volume was too small, there couldn't be much space inside, so he couldn't be bothered to explore and headed straight for that last big one.

After approaching, Duroken scouted ahead, confirmed there was space inside, then turned back and nodded to everyone.

Everyone landed on the rock. Just as Feti was about to start work, Lord Nai Ge stopped him: "Let the little angel do it, keep the noise down. Little angel, Earth Sacred Hammer."

"Oh?!" The little angel's eyes lit up, and he excitedly whipped out the Earth Sacred Hammer, smashing the ground with a thunderous boom. The surface of the rock immediately shattered into a big pit. Because of the Earth Sacred Hammer's properties, the noise of the shattering didn't spread outward—standing outside, one couldn't even feel the tremor.

Just like that, with a series of clanging smashes, a big hole was smashed open. When everyone rushed in, a withered plant slowly stretched itself out, and a powerful consciousness swept over.

"Who are you?" The voice of the God Ancestor rang out in the space.

Anthony said loudly: "We are the ones who erased Radiyad's memories."

"So it was you. How did you find this place?" the God Ancestor asked, puzzled.

The Goddess of Life poked out from Seeing Ange's shoulder, stretched out her legs—the long legs twisted from roots—and landed on the ground, "walking" down like that.

The God Ancestor's consciousness swept over the Goddess of Life: "It's you, that powerful life. You're called the Goddess of Life, yes?"

"That's what they call me. I'm just a tree." The Goddess of Life said slowly.

"Oh, a tree? A long, long time ago, I also saw a powerful tree. It even bestowed upon me the Seed of God. By that reckoning, I too count as a tree, I suppose." The God Ancestor murmured.

Everyone's mind immediately flashed to the Divine Wood Continent where the giant dragons stayed. Anthony hurriedly asked: "What about that tree? Where did it go? You look already very powerful. I sense boundless, endless power on you. Was that tree even more powerful than you? Then where did it go?"

"It died. One day, suddenly, it withered to death." The God Ancestor said.

"Impossible? A tree more powerful than you would suddenly wither and die? You're not trying to trick us, are you?" Anthony said with an expression of utter disbelief.

Seeing his expression and tone, everyone knew he had started provoking again—using words and expressions to irritate the other party, thereby drawing out more information.

But the God Ancestor was not affected, and said unhurriedly: "All things will ultimately return to chaos. No matter how powerful a life is, the moment its power begins to fall into chaos, death will arrive."

Then its consciousness swept over Duroken, Feti, and the little zombie, and it said unhurriedly: "Including those beings that claim to be immortal. The 'immortality' of these beings is relative to ordinary beings—their souls too will ultimately return to chaos. But their king has attempted to challenge this law of the void."

Everyone's heart stirred. Hearing this description, there was no doubt—this 'king' who challenged the laws of the void was definitely Your Majesty.

Anthony asked: "Oh? Then where did this king go?"

The God Ancestor said: "I don't know. He beat me into this state and then ran off. Later Radiyad said that the Lord of Annihilation trapped him within the Annihilation Boundary."

"Pfft..." Lord Nai Ge nearly laughed out loud. So this clump of divine light in its current state was also beaten up by the Undying Monarch?

After asking a few more questions, the God Ancestor answered very cooperatively. Finally, Anthony asked curiously: "Thank you very much for answering our questions. I'd like to know—why are you willing to answer so many of our questions?"

The God Ancestor was silent for a moment, then asked hesitantly: "I only obliterated a few of its pollen grains, and so many of you came looking for me. If I don't answer, will you hit me?"

Now it was Seeing Ange and the others' turn to exchange glances. Would they? Of course they would! Not only would they hit it, they'd beat it to death—otherwise, once it reincarnated as an Annihilation Sorcerer, they might not be able to beat it then.

One Annihilation Sorcerer trapped Locke, so if two Annihilation Sorcerers joined forces...

But now that the reasoning was laid out like this, it did seem rather excessive. The thing hadn't actually done anything—it had only obliterated a few pollen grains attached to Radiyad, and they had come to kill it.

"Put this way, it really does seem quite excessive. But letting it go like this isn't good either—leaving a hidden danger behind. How about we beat it to death, and then hold a grand funeral for it as compensation?" Anthony suggested guiltily.
