Ch. 2446..2450: The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 2446-2450

The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2446

His eyelids now twitching, Gerald couldn’t help but add, “Those siblings are in trouble…”

Though Gerald hadn’t really wanted to get too involved with them, now that he knew that this evil priestess was out to kill, he couldn’t just let her do as she pleased! With his mind made up, Gerald then began chasing after Master Trilight…!

Speaking of Master Trilight, it wasn’t long before she arrived at her first destination… That being the siblings’ home!

At the time, the brother was experiencing a high fever that simply wouldn’t subside. With even their bedridden mother terribly ill, the sister naturally grew increasingly desperate. Eventually, the sister headed out to fetch some water and it was then when Master Trilight snuck into the house!

Staring at the sick child, Master Trilight couldn’t help but scoff, “Ah, my beloved disciple, you truly are getting better and better… To think that you’d actually manage to gather seven children who were born at noon this time! Not only will this aid your cultivation, but mine as well!”

Following that, her eyes turned as red as burning charcoal, and two distinct fangs protruded out of her mouth! Leaning closer to the brother’s face, she then took a great sniff before coughing multiple times!

Somehow, she had breathed in the ashes at the bottom of the pot on the stove nearby! Understandably shocked, Master Trilight then muttered between gags, “H-how could such a thing even happen..?!”

“Why don’t you sniff one more time to find out? I can make you suck in toilet water, if that’s to your fancy,” scoffed Gerald’s voice from out of the blue.

“What?! Show yourself, you b*stard! ” roared the now vigilant Master Trilight as she bolted out of the house!

At the time, the sister was just returning home, and upon seeing the priestess’s demonic form, she instantly let out a scream! Even so, Master Trilight didn’t really care about her, and she simply flew off toward the forest where she had last heard that taunt!

Once she was there, she immediately yelled, “Who the hell are you?! How dare you taunt me, the Divine Master?! Are you that keen on dying?!”

“Divine Master? I suggest you change your title to Great Monster instead! After all, you probably don’t even remember how many people you’ve killed over the years!” scoffed Gerald as he leaped out of the bushes to reveal himself.

“A young man? That aside, your aura seems to be even purer than that of children! Though you weren’t born at noon, I’m sure you’ll still be a great sacrifice!” retorted Master Trilight as she greedily stuck her tongue out.

“Whatever you say. Speaking of which, what kind of demon even are you? A wolf?” asked Gerald as be scanned the woman from head to toe.

“You’ll find out once you’re in my stomach!” retorted the evil woman as she smirked before pouncing on Gerald!

“Aww… You won’t tell me? Guess I’ll just have to beat you up till you reveal your true form!” replied Gerald as he began making his own move as well!

Shortly after, they slammed their palms toward each other, causing their immense auras- one made of true essential qi and the other, demonic essential qi to collide! Upon collision, the gold and black auras triggered a massive explosion that sent a shockwave flying all around them! What immense black magic and essential qi power!

Regardless, it didn’t take long for the two to each take three steps back, both of them looking rather surprised.

 

Chapter 2447

The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2447

“I’m surprised you were able to enter the Domiensch Realm at such a young age. I’m actually glad I went all out earlier. Otherwise, I’d surely be toast by now!” grumbled the priestess.

Though neither of them had gained the upper hand from their attacks, Master Trilight’s face had now gone slightly pale. Aside from that, her wavering irises that were now glowing in a tint of dark green confirmed that she was actually afraid.

What’s more, though she hadn’t suffered any heavy injuries, Gerald’s massive essential qi had forced her to reveal half of her true form!

Regardless, upon looking at her altered form, Gerald whose brows were now furrowed was prompted to say, “So I was right! You’re not a common demonic cultivator at all! Instead, you’re a big scorpion demon!”

Since this was his first time encountering such a demon after entering the cultivation realm, Gerald couldn’t help but feel slightly shocked. He was also surprised by the fact that demonic cultivators could actually get as powerful as cultivators who had entered the Deitus Realm. After all, the priestess’s power was far higher than Ryder’s and Darkwind’s.

It was a brief pause later when the priestess growled, “It isn’t easy to get to your level of cultivation. With that in mind, I advise you to mind your business. Otherwise, death awaits!”

“Mind my business? When I now know that you’re killing innocents? As if I could ever do that! If evil people like you are allowed to continue teaching demonic cultivation to people like Elaine, then the

world will be in chaos!” retorted Gerald as he began charging up the third sword style of the Cosmo- Amorphous Sword Technique, Mokinfinite.

“Then here’s your one way ticket to hell!” yelled Master Trilight as she released her full demonic spirit!

Following a loud explosion, a glowing shield of darkness formed before her.

“Venom palm!” howled the priestess as she slammed her palm in Gerald’s direction, causing the shield to turn into a giant palm that began shooting toward the boy! With how powerful the attack was, Gerald could already feel the palm’s power from where he stood.

‘What a deadly attack!’

Now fully vigilant, Gerald who had already readied the Mokinfinite fired his attack right back at her. Since the aurablade was formed through the condensation of heaven and earth’s aura as well as the surrounding Triton qi, the second it pierced through Master Trilight’s palm attack, a golden light momentarily flashed, followed by a massive explosion!

The explosion was so powerful that even the ground began to crack!

Upon realizing that her attack was nullified, the priestess who had already gone pale couldn’t help but exclaim, “That…! Isn’t that the legendary Cosmo-Amorphous Sword Technique…?!”

It was far too late to block the attack, and Master Trilight soon found herself getting stabbed right in the stomach..! This caused thick, black smoke to begin exiting her body as she flew backward before eventually crashing onto the ground!

After Spurting out a mouthful of blood, the terrified woman was prompted to ask, “Are… Are you a disciple of the pre-Angelord, Saint Amorphous..?!”

“Saint Amorphous? I have no master, and I’ve never heard of that person before!” replied Gerald with a slight frown, though he figured that she was referring to the senior back in Fyre Cave. So that senior had got to the level of a pre-Angelord…

Come to think of it, did he succeed in becoming an Angelord in the end? No wonder the martial arts and skills he left behind were so mystifying!

“But… If you’re not his heir, how would you even know how to use the Cosmo-Amorphous Sword Technique…?!” exclaimed the priestess as she took a few steps back, her eyes brimming with fear.

Chapter 2448

The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2448

“While you appear to know that senior and your black magic is quite strong, your power is at best only comparable to mine. You’re still lightyears away from getting to a pre-Angelord level!” said Gerald.

“I agree with that. While our power doesn’t differ too much, your martial arts are way too strong for me. While I don’t personally know Saint Amorphous, my master has been his rival for the longest time!” replied Master Trilight in an anxious tone.

“Who exactly is your master?” asked Gerald, wondering if this ‘master’ was the expert mentioned by that girl in the mirror. Maybe he was the true demon.

The fact that her master personally knew the senior in Fyre Cave also told Gerald that he needed to be careful around that person.

Either way, the priestess then replied, “He’s someone you aren’t qualified to know. Regardless, since you saved those siblings, I’m assuming you wish to become my enemy! However, since I’m a tolerant person, I’ll forgive you if you present me with a hundred individuals who were born at noon! With your ability, I believe that shouldn’t be heard at all. What more, since you’re much stronger than that foolish disciple of mine, you should be able to gather them within ten days!”

“As if I’d ever harm others for your sake!” retorted the furious Gerald as he formed another aurablade and aimed it toward Master Trilight!

Naturally, Master Trilight didn’t dare to take Gerald’s attacks head on anymore. With that, she quickly took a flute out and immediately began blowing it! An eerie melody soon filled the air and shortly after,

an air wave shot out toward Gerald…!

Seeing that, Gerald tossed his aurablade toward the air wave but when the two attacks collided, the aurablade dissipated! What more, the air wave continued flying toward Gerald!

“An angelic artifact…?!” exclaimed Gerald as the air wave hit him, causing his mind to suddenly ache!

It didn’t take long for him to realize that it was now much more difficult to use his martial arts. All he could do was use the calming incantations of the Velement Method to counter the effects of the air wave!

Regardless, Master Trilight simply smirked as she said, “Good eye. As you said, it’s an angelic artifact!”

Following that, Master Trilight blew an even more bizarre tune that instantly caused the essential qi in Gerald’s body to go haywire…!

Gerald had learned about angelic artifacts from one of Walter’s books. Basically, aside from magic and divine artifacts, there also existed angelic artifacts, though there were few records of such artifacts since so few cultivators were even able to enter the Deitus Realm. It didn’t help that many existing records were lost to time.

That aside, Gerald had correctly guessed that it was an angelic artifact since such artifacts utilized angelic power. Upon being released, angelic power could make its victims feel powerless which was what Gerald was experiencing now!

Using the sound transmission technique, Master Trilight then laughed mockingly in Gerald’s mind before scoffing, “Nobody has ever escaped the ancient angelic flute’s power! You’ll be melted alive!”

“I may not be able to kill you, but you won’t kill me that easily either!” retorted Gerald as he began performing the Thordifussion Method while resisting the incoming sound waves!

Among the supreme heavenly techniques left behind by Saint Amorphous, there were two that allowed people to avoid heavenly tribulations. The first way was by using the Velement Method to transform oneself into a baby. The other was to use the Thordifussion Method.

Since becoming a pre-Angelord required one to face heavenly tribulations, these two techniques were perfect for the job and if they could help one overcome heavenly tribulations, why couldn’t they overcome the power of the ancient angelic flute?

With that in mind, Gerald closed his eyes and fiercely began mobilizing his essential qi…!

Seconds later, the rumble of thunder filled the initially clear sky, and lightning began striking as well! As if that wasn’t already strange enough, something odd was now happening on Gerald’s forehead! Essentially, multiple bolts of lightning were now converging toward his third eye as his surroundings kept changing!

 

Chapter 2449

The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2449

Watching as immensely powerful lightning bolts filled the sky, Master Trilight who was still playing the flute couldn’t help but widen her eyes in shock.

‘Was this heavenly tribulation…?! How was he actually able to trigger a heavenly tribulation at his level of cultivation…?!’

Though she was now terrified, she quickly snapped out of it. If she lost focus now, things would truly be over. With that in mind, she quickly began playing the angelic flute again, making sure to maximize its power!

To her shock, a deafening roar of thunder suddenly filled the sky and shortly after, five lightning bolts broke the ancient angelic flute’s seal! To make matters worse, the lightning bolts then converged before flying toward her!

With how powerful the lightning bolt now was, her purlicues were torn even before the attack got to her…!

Completely frozen in fear, Master Trilight could only yell, “N-no…!”

Right before the attack hit her, however, a wisp of black smoke suddenly appeared and blocked the giant bolt of lightning. Following that, it wrapped around Master Trilight before disappearing without a trace.

Sensing that, Gerald quickly wobbled to his feet again before looking in the direction of the black smoke. However, it had completely vanished.

Gerald, for one, knew that the demonic spirit that had saved the woman was far stronger than that demonic scorpion. After all, this unknown individual was not only able to block his fully powered up Thordifussion Method, but he had even been able to save Master Trilight! With that in mind, it was evident that this black magic user possessed power that was way beyond his as well.

‘Could that person have been master…? Even if that wasn’t, I may as well head back to discuss things with the others. We’ll surely get to know who he really is soon enough!’ Gerald thought to himself before transforming into a beam of golden light and disappearing without a trace.

As for pale faced Master Trilight, she soon found herself lying on the floor of Trilight Church. Once she was done Spurting out blood, she eventually managed to exclaim in horror, “W-what a powerful lightning bolt..! Not only his attack was able to break my ancient angelic flute, but it also injured my primordial spirit..!”

Though she hadn’t suffered the worst possible scenario, at least ten years’ worth of her cultivation had been scraped off by that attack! With that in mind, had that attack managed to directly hit her, she would’ve surely been completely eradicated!

Her train of thought was cut short when she heard an angry yell coming from beside her, stating, “You absolute fool…! Why didn’t you flee when you saw him readying the Thordifussion Method?! To think you’d actually try to deal with that attack, head-on…! Had I not sensed it in time, not even your soul would have remained!”

Immediately sitting up, she then turned to look at the very center of the church where a stone statue stood. Though the statue’s appearance was hideous, there were many offerings surrounding it.

The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2450

Regardless, Master Trilight quickly replied in a respectful tone, “Y-you’re absolutely right, Master… I was truly reckless this time, and had it not been for you, I’d be dead by now!”

Sighing in response, the statue then said, “Well, I don’t fully blame you… After all, you were late to start cultivating under my guidance. With that in mind, you lack the knowledge that your three seniors possess. That aside, know that the Thordifussion Method carries the purest form of heaven and earth’s thunder. Not only can it overcome heavenly tribulations, but it can kill demons, devils, and even deities! With that said, if you ever encounter the attack again, just run!”

“I shall remember that, Master…! Thank you for imparting your knowledge…!” declared Master Trilight as she kowtowed toward the statue.

“Well said. Still, how interesting… It’s been a thousand years since I’ve last come across such an interesting opponent… That man seems to have a deep connection with Saint Amorphous if he was imparted with all that old man’s knowledge! Not that I’m complaining. After all, after waiting for ages, I’ve finally found a man who can compete with me…! Speaking of which, I sensed that his essential qi grew rather strange at the end of the first round. There seems to be another force aiding him… Who exactly is he?” asked the statue with a chuckle.

“I’m not too sure either, though he appears to know Elain, my disciple. Worry not, I’ll look further into this once I recover!” declared the priestess.

“That would be for the best. Regardless, make sure not to let him disrupt our plans. The same applies to that foolish Freyr. How dare he break into the tomb so hastily!” grumbled the statue in a dissatisfied tone.

“I’ll give Freyr another warning. That aside… They’re still our pawns, so isn’t it a bit too early to be removing them…?” asked Master Trilight.

“It’s definitely earlier than expected, but we mustn’t allow them to ruin our big plans, especially regarding the secret in the general’s tomb. If the secret is leaked, many other demons will surely start competing with us! By that point, all our painstaking effort would be in vain! I’m worried about that strong, young man as well. He appears to have a goal in Peaceton.” growled the statue.

“Should I invite the Eldest, Second, and Third Seniors over then…? I don’t think I can approach him with my power!” suggested Master Trilight.

“You may. If necessary, I’ll eventually take action as well and personally meet that young man!” declared the statue. Following that statement, the stone’s luster slowly faded.

Moving back to Gerald, after updating Darkwind and Lyndon on all that had happened, Darkwind couldn’t help but frown as he said, “So… You’re saying that there’s a big demon who’s as strong as you in Peaceton..?”

“Bingo! Even his subordinate is no amateur. She even had an angelic artifact! With that said, you may not even be able to defeat that scorpion demon, let alone the big demon…” muttered Gerald in a slightly worried tone.

It appeared that his goal of obtaining Yinblood pellets for Marcel and Phoebe wasn’t going to be easy. Thankfully, Gerald had been cautious enough not to expose his identity back at the Zandt family’s

residence. If he had, not only would he have to deal with exploring the general’s tomb, but possibly the big demon as well!

Gerald’s train of thought was cut short when he heard Darkwind say, “I’ve heard many stories of demons, devils, and ghosts throughout the years, but this is the first time I’ve ever heard of someone bumping into a big demon… After all, the more powerful a demon is, the harder it is to detect! Regardless, when a big demon cultivates, the demon actively goes against heaven to change their fate, which is why they will be bombarded by heaven’s wrath. With that in mind, before they have enough power to confront the power of heaven, they’ll normally hide themselves. According to my master, demons who manage to confront heaven’s wrath can end up becoming as powerful as lords in the Deitus Realm!”

“My master more or less said the same thing. Either way, as Darkwind said, it won’t be easy for us to identify this big demon,” replied Lyndon as he shook his head.

Looking at the trio who seemed to be at a complete loss , Professor Boyle then adjusted his glasses while saying, “I wonder if the museum will have any of the information we need. Even if it doesn’t, we can still try to scour for clues from ancient books about legends in Peaceton…”
