Chapter 76 The Appearance Of Percy
Scientific research showed that some humans’ unnatural superpowers were related to brain waves. Those people might be born unusual, and their brain waves were different from that of ordinary people. When the spiritual energy generated by the brain waves reached a certain level, the spiritual energy would be known as mana.
Mana possessed boundless power, but this is all theorized by scientists and required further research.
As of the present, no one had developed their brain cells to twenty percent, and no one had been able to convert spiritual energy into mana.
Right now, Gabriel was utilizing the power of both the Dragon Jade and the formation diagram in order to convert spiritual energy into mana.
He had now merged with the magnetic force in the alchemy room. All of the magnetic forces, molecules, and the mysterious Thread of Fate were all present in his mind, entwined like a complex network.
Gabriel began to prompt his spiritual energy to use molecules to establish a connection with Jonathan who was in the alchemy furnace.
The alchemy furnace could not protect the latter from the molecules’ connection. Soon, the magnetic field began to vibrate violently.
In the alchemy furnace, Jonathan was healing his injuries at full speed. However, he suddenly felt that he was not able to focus his spiritual energy no matter how hard he tried. It was a strange situation indeed.
Jonathan felt himself getting dizzier, and before long, he passed out.
Gabriel’s spiritual energy had invaded Jonathan’s brain waves. It was an invisible attack.
In his dazed state, Jonathan slowly regained his senses. He felt his soul had escaped from his body. At the same time, Jonathan caught a glimpse of a scene. The scene showed his birth, his parents’ abandonment, him being adopted by his master, his growth, his cultivation, and his bravery in Smealand. He even saw the moment when he was captured and thrown into the alchemy furnace.
Jonathan saw his life in pictures and was strongly affected by it. As he looked at himself in those scenes, a strange and inexplicable feeling rose within his heart.
At this point, what Gabriel said about the Curb of Kismet was tossed to the back of Jonathan’s mind. The latter merely felt that this was his destiny.
In the scene, Jonathan’s luck was completely extracted from him, and he was rendered utterly useless before meeting a cruel end at the hands of Gabriel. Jonathan trembled as fear and panic overwhelmed him.
His willpower was no longer firm.
That’s my destiny!
In the alchemy furnace, Jonathan sat cross-legged, eyes closed, as his expression changed drastically and his body trembled violently.
His willpower had been crushed by the Curb of Kismet, and he was about to accept his fate.
The luck in his body was slowly being extracted.
Gabriel, who was outside, had a plan in his mind. He wanted to extract Jonathan’s luck and pass it on to himself through the molecular passage.
By extracting one’s luck, he could change his own destiny.
Such method was simply ingenious.
Just as Jonathan’s luck was about to be taken away from him, a voice sounded in his mind.
“Open your eyes, the Chosen One!” The gentle voice belonged to an old man and gave Jonathan a sense of warmth.
Startled, Jonathan’s eyes immediately fluttered open.
However, he did not actually open his eyes. He had merely regained his consciousness. Jonathan remembered Gabriel and realized the predicament he was in was just a result of the Curb of Kismet. It was not reality at all. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“F*ck. The Curb of Kismet is so powerful. I almost lost my life.” Jonathan broke out in cold sweat. At the same time, he had a feeling that he had not woken up yet. He knew that his consciousness was still floating in his mind, and the darkness in front of him was actually his brain.
“Sir?” Jonathan remembered the old man who called out to him. It was he who saved Jonathan’s life. He said respectfully, “Sir, I’d like to meet you, please.”
As soon as his words fell, brain waves began combining together to form the figure of an old man.
The old man had white hair and a gentle-looking face. Jonathan had seen this old man who was standing in front of him. It was none other than Percy Yarrow, who had been burned to death.
“Are you Master Yarrow?” Jonathan asked.
Right now, the conversation between Jonathan and Percy was happening in the former’s brain. It resembled the communication between brain waves, which could not be heard from the outside.
Outside the furnace, Gabriel only felt that Jonathan’s luck was about to be extracted when something strange happened all of a sudden. It was as if a barrier had materialized out of thin air, rendering him unable to see what was going on inside.
Gabriel let out a sigh internally, knowing time waited for no one. Hence, he immediately activated the formation again to reinvade Jonathan’s brain waves. However, the process would take some time.
The period of time he needed was sufficient for Jonathan and Percy to communicate.
Percy smiled at Jonathan and said, “The Chosen One, you’re finally here.”
Jonathan was very fond of Percy for some inexplicable reason. He could not help but ask curiously, “Master Yarrow, what is going on?”
A slight smile appeared on Percy’s face as he explained, “This is my last shred of consciousness. It was injected into the Supreme Nascent Pill you ate earlier. I am able to communicate with you for now, but my time is running out. I will soon disappear.”
“Supreme Nascent Pill?” Jonathan was confused.
Percy replied, “I specially made the Supreme Nascent Pill for you. It contains thirty-six powerful medicinal effects, and the essence of various precious medicinal herbs were extracted by me. If you eat this, in the future, your blood, urine, and feces will become precious. It can detoxify all poisons. You will also be invulnerable to all poisons.”
Jonathan widened his eyes and asked, “Is there really such a miraculous thing?”
Percy smiled faintly and joked, “Supreme Nascent Pill is the biggest research I’ve ever done in my life. I’ve gifted it to you, so don’t be so shameless.”
“Thank you, Master Yarrow,” Jonathan said in a respectful tone.
Percy waved his hand. “You don’t have to thank me. I’m helping you for my own reasons.”
“What can I do for you, Master Yarrow?”
The old man let out a sigh before explaining, “Gabriel is the most outstanding disciple of Crimson Onyx Sect, but he doesn’t understand the Heavenly Law. That’s why he is so arrogant. If he takes over Crimson Onyx Sect, it will definitely be doomed. I hope you can bring Felicia back and let her take charge of the sect. In the future, I hope you will be able to look after the sect as well.”
When Jonathan heard that, he was awestruck. Even now he’s still worried about Crimson Onyx Sect.
He immediately replied, “I will definitely make every effort to protect Crimson Onyx Sect.”
With a contented smile on his face, Percy said, “I trust you.”
After that, Jonathan questioned again, “Master Yarrow, since you knew that Gabriel had set Felicia up, why didn’t you get rid of him earlier? Why did you keep him alive? In the end, he even murdered you.”
“Gabriel is the one who will bring about a great tribulation called the Great Tribulation. If I forcibly kill him, I will not be able to bear the consequences. Besides, this is not his fate. I can’t kill him even if I tried to, but I was killed by him because that was my destiny. Since the establishment of the Crimson Onyx Sect centuries ago, we have strictly abided by Heavenly Law. As the founder of the sect, I, naturally, will not go against it.”
Jonathan fell into a ponder before he asked, “I’ll kill Gabriel once I get out of here. What do you think?”
A faint smile spread across Percy’s face. “You’re the Chosen One, so you can kill him. However, you may not be successful because he’s not destined to die yet.”
Hearing that, Jonathan sighed. I can hardly believe this.
Just then, Percy’s figure became misty. He was about to disappear at any second.
Jonathan was stunned. He called out to the old man, “Master Yarrow?”
“Humans can’t fight against destiny. Illness and death are normal. My biggest regret in life was being too knowing. Hence, I was unable to live life to its fullest. I knew my destiny from the start, but I was unable to escape. It was pathetic and sad,” said Percy.
Jonathan could not find the right words to say, but he could feel how restricting the Heavenly Law was. Even if he knew everything, he could not escape destiny.
His heart ached for Percy. Although Jonathan had just met the man, he was still Jonathan’s savior. Thus, he could not help feeling sad for the old man.
“Do you have anything else to ask?” asked Percy.
Jonathan pondered for a moment before inquiring, “What exactly is the Great Tribulation?”
“The world is mysterious, but all beings are ignorant. This is Heavenly Law! However, over the years, many intelligent people understood the law and went against it. For instance, Crimson Onyx Sect, Gabriel, demons, and other unimaginable masters. The existence of these beings is a challenge to the Heavenly Law,” explained the old man.
He paused for a while and added, “Whether they are demons or masters, they dare not show themselves as the magnetic forces in their bodies are extremely strong, and they would be struck by lightning as a result, just like how dry weather could cause lightning strikes. This is the restriction the Heavenly Law has placed on them, and it is also the reason why demons rarely appeared over the years. However, when these beings are in hiding, the Heavenly Law is unable to punish them. The Heavenly Law denotes that it is about time for a purge to cleanse the world of these beings. The world
is becoming more and more technologically advanced, and the existence of these beings should not be allowed. Do you understand?”
Jonathan seemingly understood Percy’s explanation, but he could not help asking, “Do Gods and demons actually exist?”
Percy answered, “I’ve never seen one before. However, our world has existed for hundreds of millions of years. Isn’t it possible that all kinds of creatures exist or have existed? There are many legends and myths that have been passed through time. These stories must have originated from somewhere.”
Just as Jonathan was pondering Percy’s words, the old man’s figure appeared intangible and vague once more.
Seeing that, Jonathan was stunned. “Master Yarrow?”
A peaceful smile appeared across Percy’s face. “The Chosen One, you have to remember that you’re not the only Chosen One. You’re not destined to be the winner. Being the Chosen One is a calamity itself. You will have to fight countless people who are just like you, and there would only be a single Chosen One left at the end of the bloodbath. Perhaps, the Heavenly Law might even condemn all of you to death.”
