Chapter 2443 - 2462: Blood Oath
"The Son of the Epoch is the Primordial Saint, but who is the Son of Immortality?" Yusuf Zuck was very curious. It seemed that a lot had happened in the past sixty years.
"Your good friend, Ayden Acme," Demi Garrett replied with a smile.
"Ayden is the Son of Immortality?" Yusuf raised an eyebrow; this was beyond his expectations.
"Yes, the Son of Immortality, Ayden Acme; the Son of the Epoch, Primordial Saint; the Son of Creation, Derrick Newman; the Son of the Maker, Fernando Graham; and lastly, the Son of Destiny, which is me," Demi Garrett said with a calm smile. "And you, it seems, have been forgotten over these sixty years."
"That is a good thing," Yusuf laughed heartily. He wasn’t really keen on being one of the Five Sons of Heaven’s Path because it was too troublesome. Moreover, if he truly were one of the Five Sons, how would he face Demi Garrett and Ayden Acme?
Would it end up in a mutual slaughter between them?
That was something he didn’t want, something he didn’t wish to see.
"Don’t start celebrating too early," Demi Garrett said. "Even though you are no longer one of the Five Sons of Heaven’s Path, there are still many who want to kill you - the Quanzhen Society, the Primordial Saint, Right Saint, and even some hidden figures who might trouble you eventually."
"Let’s not talk about them," Yusuf dismissed the topic with a wave. "You’ve waited three years for me; surely, there’s something important. What is it?"
Demi Garrett pondered for a while and said, "The other matters aren’t important. The important thing is, you need to help me once."
"How can I help you?" Yusuf nodded. Since there wouldn’t be any mutual slaughter between them, it was only right to help.
"We need to return to the Heavenly Gate Altar. Last time, I didn’t enter the second tier, but this time, I intend to reach the ninth tier."
"If I guess correctly, inside the ninth tier lies the greatest secret of this world."
"Alright, no problem, but can you tell me what realm you currently are in?" Yusuf asked curiously.
Demi Garrett shook his head: "What realm I’m in is unclear to me. Anyway, I haven’t reached the Creation Realm, but those in Creation Realm can’t defeat me. It’s just that simple."
"Is that simple?" Yusuf was flabbergasted: "You haven’t reached the Creation Realm, and yet those in the Creation Realm can’t defeat you?"
"Yes, even those at the ninth level of the Creation Realm can’t beat me."
Yusuf was instantly speechless. The highest level of the Creation Realm is nine, and hearing that the ninth level can’t beat him, to what extent had his strength grown?
"Since even the ninth level of the Creation Realm can’t defeat you, then... who else in this world can?" Yusuf was puzzled.
"The Creation World Realm," Demi Garrett replied with a smile. "You should know that the Creation World Realm exists in this world, right?"
"Is it the highest realm of cultivators?" Yusuf countered.
"Sort of." Demi Garrett nodded. "I told you before, we are about to reach the summit of the Pyramid, and the top of the Pyramid is the Creation World Realm."
"The so-called Creation World Realm is the realm where one can create worlds and life."
"That must be incredibly powerful." Yusuf took a deep breath. The Creation World Realm is the most powerful existence in this world.
Demi Garrett nodded: "It is indeed powerful, but..." Demi Garrett suddenly paused mid-sentence: "The Creation World Realm is at the summit of the Pyramid, but have you ever wondered who built the Pyramid?"
"Besides, the Creation World Realm cannot control the Heavenly Dao Laws. Although it can create life and worlds, these are irregular worlds."
"Do you mean there is a state beyond the Creation World Realm?" Yusuf was stunned. How could there be?
"There isn’t. The Creation World Realm is the highest; there will be no new realms beyond it."
"Then what do you mean?" Yusuf just couldn’t understand.
"I am also exploring, and based on my insights over the years, beyond the Creation World Realm lies the Heavenly Dao."
"Heavenly Dao? Is it a realm?" Yusuf still didn’t get it.
"Not a realm, but a set of rules. The rules change the world, and the rules control the world. Without rules, the world would be chaotic and unstable. The Heavenly Dao isn’t a person, nor is it a deity..."
"Then what is it?"
Demi Garrett shook his head: "That is why I need to reach the top tier of the Heavenly Gate Altar; there lies the answer."
"Then tell me, how many in the Creation World Realm exist in this world? Don’t suddenly say there are hundreds or thousands; that would be terrifying."
"Not that many, at most two or three. Perhaps there were many before, but when they created their own worlds and life, they should have perished."
"Why would they die?" Yusuf was puzzled.
"Because they created irregular worlds, and the current Heavenly Dao did not acknowledge them, so their worlds collapsed, and they naturally died. This is why there are Creation World Realm tombs in this world."
"Two or three? How do you know?" Yusuf found that Demi Garrett seemed to know everything, as if he knew everything under the heavens.
"Because our world doesn’t allow it according to the rules, so at most, there are two or three."
"Now the great era is arriving. The Son of the Epoch and Five Sons of Heaven’s Path have appeared, indicating that the Heavenly Dao will change hands..." Demi Garrett looked deeply at Yusuf as he said this, then continued, "After the Heavenly Dao changes hands, the world will become a new world, with a new set of rules. Perhaps many in the Creation World Realm will be born during this period, but in the end, only two or three can remain."
"Heavenly Dao changes hands?" An idea suddenly struck Yusuf. Demi Garrett’s gaze was odd, and if the Heavenly Dao changed hands... could he become the Heavenly Dao?
If so, wouldn’t Demi Garrett and Ayden Acme be his sons?
Of course, this was just Yusuf’s fantasy; he did not understand what the Heavenly Dao was. Besides, if the Heavenly Dao changed hands, wouldn’t it arise from the Five Sons?
"According to the rules, the change in Heavenly Dao will come from the Five Sons of Heaven’s Path." Sure enough, Demi Garrett said this.
"Then congratulations, you’re the strongest among the Five Sons of Heaven’s Path. You might become the Heavenly Dao, and if you become the Heavenly Dao, you have to look out for me, don’t make me kneel, don’t treat me like a little servant."
"Hahaha." Demi Garrett laughed heartily, pointing at Yusuf: "You, your mind is too complicated, but how about we make a pact?"
"What kind of pact?" Yusuf squinted his eyes.
Demi Garrett thought it over: "If I become the Heavenly Dao, we shall stand as equals, becoming sworn brothers with different surnames, and I promise to never betray or kill you."
"And if you become the Heavenly Dao, you must treat me the same way. How about it?"
"You said it, so it’s settled, a blood oath." Yusuf understood Demi Garrett was unfathomable, so it wouldn’t be surprising if he truly became the Heavenly Dao in the future. With that, he bit his finger.
Demi Garrett also bit his finger, and then their fingers touched, forming an unseen bond. This was their shared vow, never to betray.
From this moment on, they would harbor no suspicion or ill will toward each other. They would face life and death together, face future enemies together, and comfortably entrust their backs to one another.
