Ch. 1086..1090: The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 1086-1090
Chapter 1086
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1086 They had initially been planning to bury it, but the dragon’s corpse caused a plague at this time.
Many people had died from the plague.
Just as the king was completely at a loss for what to do, the old beggar was mentioned again.
It seemed as though the old beggar had finally come back three years later.
However, when the old beggar came back this time, he no longer looked like an old beggar, but instead, he was dressed very formally.
The old beggar told the king that he had only been pretending to be an old beggar back then so that he could get things done easily, but he was not really a beggar.
The king was naturally overjoyed when he heard this, and he gave him the best and most luxurious treatment.
The king then asked him how he should deal with the dragon’s corpse.
The old beggar proposed that the dragon’s corpse should be immediately cremated without any further delay.
The mural also stated that the old beggar had excellent medical skills. He healed the people who had been infected by the plague at that time, and he also healed the prince, who had been infected because of the plague.
However, he also brought up one condition.
He wanted to go and take a look inside the underground palace.
Not only that, he wanted to go in and take a look at the underground palace on his own. He wanted all the craftsmen and workers who were responsible for carving the murals at that time to stay away.
The king was overjoyed, and he had agreed to these requests.
The old beggar had stayed in the underground palace for more than ten days. He even brought a bag with him when he went in.
After that, the people across the country knelt and worshipped him again as they welcomed him back, hoping that he would stay.
Yet, the old beggar turned down their request again.
The mural depicted that when night came, the old beggar was standing on the wall as he faced everyone in the city who was bowing before him. At this time, the old beggar pointed at the moon that had just been exposed.
Everyone had looked up at the moon, and when they finally reacted, the old beggar had already disappeared.
At that time, to commemorate him, the people had set up a temple to worship and admire him.
“Heavenly soldiers who fell from the sky, the sacred tree, the strange and mysterious old beggar, the dragon, and also that sky battleship!” Gerald murmured.
The more information Gerald got from the murals, the more he felt as though he could not understand it.
These murals and the events depicted in these murals seemed to feel so lifelike.
Was it really just the imagination of the people from ancient times?
Gerald could not help but felt a little doubtful and suspicious at this time.
Before this, he had still been doubtful, but at this point, Gerald was already ninety percent convinced that all of this could possibly be true!
Could an entirely different civilization truly have existed in this world ten thousand years ago, or even tens of thousands of years ago?!
Although the legend of the existence of dragons was already long history… were dragons truly just a legend?
Gerald was surprised.
He took a deep breath as he tried to look for the whereabouts of the woman dressed in white from the murals.
However, there was no mention of the woman in white at all.
Gerald could not help but feel a little disappointed.
‘This old beggar seems to have had the ability to understand ancient and modern times. Could there possibly be such an enchanting being and existence in this world?’ Gerald thought to himself again.
At this time, Gerald looked at the anaconda.
“By the way, when did you come here? I believe you were not so big when you first came here, right?” Gerald asked.
The anaconda hissed before it spat on one of the murals.
It was a mural of the scene when the old beggar had entered the underground palace with a bag in his hand.
Gerald was stunned for a moment as he thought to himself.
At this time, he could not help but tremble all over.
Gerald stared at the anaconda before he said, “Do you mean to say that the old beggar brought you into the underground palace in that bag back then?!”
Gerald felt as though he was running out of breath.
The anaconda nodded.
Oh, my God!
Gerald was in a state of shock and disbelief.
“You have already lived for tens of thousands of years?!”
Chapter 1087
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1087 The anaconda nodded again.
If this had not happened in front of him, Gerald would never have believed that this was true!
This anaconda was even older than his ancestors!
“Why didn’t you kill me? The old beggar brought you into the underground palace back then. Therefore, he must have wanted you to guard this ancient tomb. You would have to kill anyone who breaks into this ancient tomb, right?” Gerald could not help but ask curiously.
The anaconda hissed as it spat and pointed at the mural from earlier.
After that, the anaconda turned around as it glanced at the eternal coffin.
The mural that the anaconda had spat at was the one where the old man had stayed in the underground palace for ten days after bringing the anaconda in, and the anaconda was pointing at the eternal coffin at this time.
It seemed as though the ten days that the old man had spent in the underground palace had something to do with the eternal coffin.
There were no other clues on the mural, and it seemed as though the anaconda was trying to tell him that the answer lay within the eternal coffin.
“You want me to open the coffin?” Gerald asked tentatively.
The anaconda nodded.
Gerald took a deep breath before he walked toward the colorful platform.
The entire platform was made out of many colorful stones.
The eternal coffin made out of crystal jade was suspended in the air above the colorful stones.
It was like a beautiful work of art that made people wonder and marvel at it.
After walking up and observing the eternal coffin from a close range, Gerald could vaguely see a dark figure lying inside the coffin.
That should be the corpse of the deity from back then.
Although Gerald could not see the figure clearly, he could see the outline of the figure being reflected on the crystal coffin.
It was indeed the eternal coffin, and the corpse was not rotten even after being preserved for such a long time.
Could this deity indeed be a deity that had descended from heaven?
Gerald suppressed his curiosity as he slowly pushed the coffin board open.
Upon pushing it away, the corpse of the deity was unreservedly displayed in front of him for a moment.
Gerald was stunned as soon as he looked at the body properly.
He felt as though his heart had stopped beating at this point.
‘How can this be possible?!’
Gerald’s eyes widened in the next moment, and a trace of shock and terror filled his body in an instant.
He could not help but tremble uncontrollably.
This was because… the corpse lying inside the coffin was none other than himself?!
To be precise, the figure lying inside the coffin looked exactly like him.
He was wearing a golden armor with a white robe, and he had long hair.
However, his face was the exact copy of Gerald’s face!
‘How could this be possible?!’
Gerald could not help but exclaim in his heart again as he subconsciously took two steps backward.
At this time, Gerald looked at the anaconda, which was looking at him respectfully.
It was no wonder why the anaconda was treating him with such respect instead of killing him! It turned out that the anaconda was regarding him as the master of the underground palace!
The anaconda hissed before it motioned for Gerald to look beside the corpse.
Gerald looked in that direction.
It turned out that there was a scroll next to the corpse.
There was also a round jade pendant next to it.
The anaconda wanted Gerald to open up the scroll.
Gerald suppressed the horror that he was feeling as he picked up the scroll.
After opening the scroll, Gerald saw some ancient writing densely recorded on it.
Gerald had asked Professor Yale about these ancient writings just a few days ago.
Therefore, Gerald could understand the content of the scroll briefly.
‘This should be the life record of this corpse!’
‘His wife was mentioned in the scroll, and the words, Sun League, were also mentioned, followed by humans, and it seems as though the last few words are talking about destruction!’
Gerald could only effectively understand these words.
The deity’s wife and the Sun League were both mentioned. Could it be that the death of this deity could be directly related to the Sun League, then? What destruction could he be referring to? Would humanity be destroyed?
Gerald could not help but feel confused and frustrated.
“This is not a suicide note left behind by the corpse, right?” Gerald asked the anaconda.
The anaconda shook his head.
“I understand now. The old beggar who brought you in here was the one who placed this scroll inside the eternal coffin, right?” Gerald asked.
The anaconda nodded.
“Who is that old beggar? Why does he know so many secrets, and why does it seem as though he has supernatural powers?”
Gerald was truly surprised.
Chapter 1088
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1088 The anaconda shook its head again.
“What does this mean? What exactly is the Sun League?”
Gerald was already sweating profusely at this time, especially since he was seeing someone who looked just like him, lying inside the eternal coffin at this time.
Could it be possible that there was such a thing as reincarnation?
Everything was filled with doubts.
Moreover, it seemed as though the mysterious man who had led him here had probably known everything, then. Yet, who was he?
Gerald was filled with doubts, and he picked up the round jade pendant as he looked at it.
There were many complicated lines painted on it.
Gerald did not know if he was hallucinating or whether it was just an illusion, but he felt as though he saw those lines move.
At this moment, Gerald stared at those lines even more intently, and it seemed as though the lines were moving even faster.
This made Gerald feel giddy, and he became very dizzy at this time.
Gerald shook his head, and he suddenly felt everything turning black before his eyes as he passed out.
However, Gerald was still conscious.
He could feel that his hands and feet were cold, but he could not open his eyes at all.
Suddenly, a huge hole appeared in front of him.
There was a bright line coming out from the hole.
There was also a stream that was flowing out smoothly.
A black shadow was standing at the side of the stream with his hands behind his back.
“You’re finally here?” The dark figure asked with his back facing Gerald.
“What do you mean by that? Who are you?” Gerald asked in surprise.
“I have been waiting for you for such a long time!” The man said.
“Always remember that the greater your abilities, the more people you will need to protect. This is especially so for the person that you love so deeply. Make sure you do not let her down!” The black figure said again.
Gerald felt even more confused at this time as he said, “Sir, I do not know what you are talking about. I simply want to ask why the deity in the eternal coffin looks exactly like me. Also, are you that deity?”
“You will find out eventually!”
The voice of the black figure sounded very bleak.
“What is the Sun League? It seems as though my lover has been captured by the Sun League, and there is completely no news on her at all!” Gerald said.
“Everyone will die because of her. Everyone!” The black figure said.
“If you are not going to tell me anything, shouldn’t you at least tell me how I can protect the people that I love?” Gerald asked in surprise.
As soon as he was done speaking, he suddenly felt the giddy and dizzy feeling in his head again.
However, it felt completely different than it did before.
It seemed as though countless pieces of information were pouring into his brain at this time.
Gerald felt as though his brain was about to explode.
Too much information!
‘My head… it hurts! Ahhh!’
Gerald held tightly onto his head as he screamed and rolled on the ground in pain.
He could no longer tell the difference between north, south, east, and west at this point.
He felt as though his head was about to explode from the pain.
However, the black figure kept talking.
“From now on, you have to be even more careful, especially of the people around you! This is because I am you, and you are me!”
“I am dying! Hurry up and save me!”
Gerald was foaming at his mouth, and the whites of his eyes were showing as he continued struggling on the ground.
Boom!
Eventually, it felt as though the information in Gerald’s mind was forming a medium which suddenly exploded,
Gerald started spurting out blood as he stopped struggling before he fainted…
Drip, drip, drip…
Gerald did not know how long he was out for, but he gradually awoke when he heard the sound of dripping water.
When he stood up, Gerald discovered that he was still in the underground palace.
The anaconda was staring at him with a concerned look in its eyes.
“I’m not dead yet?”
Gerald was a little surprised.
However, his smile froze immediately afterward, because Gerald suddenly realized that there seemed to be something more in his mind as this time!
Chapter 1089
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1089 There was an extra memory in Gerald’s mind. It was a memory that did not belong to him.
There was simply too much information in his mind.
He had too many martial arts skills and powers. It was just way too much!
It felt as though Gerald had already mastered all of these skills and abilities thoroughly. This was especially so for the breathing technique.
When Gerald breathed now, he felt as though he could automatically activate this technique in an instant.
Gerald felt skeptical.
Moreover, it seemed as though there were many more memories in his mind, but these memories seemed vague.
No matter how much Gerald thought about it, he could not remember anything at all.
Was it because of that jade pendant?
That was not all.
Gerald also discovered that his strength and physique seemed to have improved greatly.
He stretched out his palms to activate his inner strength, and a rush of heat and energy was released through the palm of his hands.
“Inner strength and outer physique! The great master realm!” Gerald was overjoyed.
Moreover, his inner strength and breathing technique was growing at a spectacular speed! Furthermore, Gerald’s inner strength was unmistakably different as compared to before.
He was even more powerful and strong as compared to before.
Gerald drew out his Lightbane and performed a set of swordsmanship.
His aura blade was invincible.
Before his sword arrived, the edge of his aura blade had already arrived.
Gerald could split a large rock from more than ten meters away.
Moreover, the more he activated his inner strength, the faster it was growing within him.
‘Could this be the great master realm?!’
‘Why do I feel as though one of my random hits is several times stronger as compared to grandpa or even Christopher Moldell?’
‘If I were to use all of my strength to attack, it would certainly be difficult for Christopher to resist my attack even with the help of his mysterious mirror.’
It was not that Gerald was being arrogant.
However, he truly felt this way at this time.
‘Grandpa said that the most mysterious realm in this world is the great master realm! However, I have a feeling that I have already surpassed the realm of the great master!’ Gerald thought to himself.
Gerald took the jade pendant and looked at it.
The dark figure had told him a lot just now, but it was still not complete.
Furthermore, it seemed as though his tone had been particularly hesitant and desolate.
The dark figure had passed all of these onto him. So, it seemed as though there was something that he wanted him to do. Also, Gerald recalled that the last thing that he was shouting seemed to be “I am you, and you are me!”.
Could it be that Gerald was the reincarnation of this deity?
Gerald looked at the corpse lying inside the eternal coffin once again.
‘I will hold onto the jade pendant first. I still have too many doubts about the eternal coffin that I simply cannot resolve overnight. I will seal up this cave after I go out later, and I will come back again after getting all the answers that I need.’ Gerald thought to himself.
After that, he kept the jade pendant away.
After all, there was a person from tens of thousands of years ago who looked just like him lying inside the eternal coffin. This made Gerald feel completely at a loss, and he did not dare to act rashly.
At this moment, it seemed as though the anaconda had something to say to him.
It started hissing as it approached one of the murals.
After that, it pointed at the mural of the eve of the burial, where the old beggar had come out to block the deity from being buried together with the woman in white.
The anaconda was specifically pointing at the woman in white.
“What are you trying to say? Do you mean that you want me to find this woman in white?” Gerald asked.
The anaconda nodded.
After that, the anaconda looked at the eternal coffin and the jade pendant in Gerald’s hand.
“Is this what the dark figure wants me to do? He wants me to find her?” Gerald asked.
The anaconda nodded again.
Hm?
At this point, Gerald suddenly remembered the strange dream that Lyra had had before he came to the desert.
Chapter 1090
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1090 Warhill Mountain, the collapsed statue of the woman in white, and the prophecy of the picture of the sun. He thought of the woman in white that had appeared when he had died.
A woman in white again?
Could both of them be the same person?
‘This matter seems to be getting more and more troublesome. I will have to go back and see whether I can find some answers from the picture of the sun!’ Gerald thought to himself.
At this time, Gerald closed the coffin again.
At the same time, Gerald arranged a seal formation around the coffin following his memory.
It would be better for him to preserve and keep this body well.
“Thank you for your help. It will not take too long, I will come back as soon as I figure everything out!” Gerald said as he patted the anaconda’s head.
The anaconda nodded.
After that, Gerald left.
In truth, Gerald did not notice it himself, but even though he was still the same person as he was before, he was already portraying a completely different kind of temperament.
Gerald slowly went out, following the low and steady corridor.
Gerald also sealed up the corridor completely as he left.
Gerald stretched his body slightly and sighed as soon as he walked out along the corridor.
The black wind had already stopped outside.
‘I should move some boulders here!’ Gerald thought to himself.
Gerald walked to the side before he moved some rocks to seal up the entire corridor.
Suddenly, a whistling sound came from the sky.
“Hahaha! Stinky brat! It has already been ten days! You are finally willing to come out after I have waited for you for ten days!”
Immediately afterward, a figure jumped off a low cliff and landed directly in front of Gerald.
“Ten days! I initially thought that you had already died inside, but I felt a little hesitant and reluctant to leave. Fortunately, I decided to wait a little longer! Otherwise, you would have already slipped away just like that!” Christopher said as he laughed.
Gerald was startled as he said, “So, it turns out that I was unconscious for ten days inside the cave. I honestly thought that it had just been one night!”
“You must have been so scared and terrified inside the cave, right? Stinky brat, you are truly very fortunate! You actually did not get killed by that huge anaconda!”
“It seems as though this is surely God’s will! It is God’s will for me to get my hands on you and your physique!” Christopher sneered.
Gerald realized that Christopher looked even more haggard as compared to how he was when he had met him ten days ago.
It seemed as though Christopher had had a very difficult time waiting for him at this place where the black wind was howling.
“Hmm? Why did you block the entrance of the cave? Is there any big secret inside this cave?” Christopher queried.
“Well, it is full of mysteries. I cannot crack all of them at once, but I am not entirely without a clue. That is why I am going to seal up this cave first so that I can come back here again in the future!” Gerald replied frankly.
“What? If that is the case, does that mean you have already found the secret inside this cave? What is it?”
Christopher was very excited, and a trace of greed flashed through his eyes.
Immediately afterward, he turned around abruptly as he tried to move the boulder.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not move the boulder at all.
“How can it be so heavy?”
Christopher’s face had already turned purple.
“I have already blessed the boulder with some secret technique. Therefore, using strength alone is completely useless!” Gerald said as he smiled.
“Secret technique? What secret technique are you talking about?” Christopher asked in surprise.
“To put it simply, I am using some profound energy that exists in nature. Let’s put it this way, it is simply like the power of a magnetic forcefield. Can you oppose the power of a magnetic forcefield with your strength alone?” Gerald asked.
“What? You… how did you learn how to do that?! Inside the cave?” Christopher asked with his eyes wide opened.
“Yes!”
“Now I know why Daryl Crawford wanted you to come here even at the risk of your own life. It turns out that there was actually this kind of secret technique inside the cave! God is indeed blessing me! God is truly on my side!” Christopher said as he grinned.
After that, he stared coldly at Gerald.
“It is no wonder why I felt as though your breath and aura seemed to be so different as compared to before. It turns out that you have had such a fortunate encounter! Unfortunately for you, you have told me everything. It is such a pity that from now onward, I will be the only person in this world who will know of this secret! Gerald, no matter what it is, I will not allow you to keep your life today! Don’t blame me for being cruel and ruthless! Give me your life!”
As soon as his voice fell, Christopher flew toward Gerald as he tried to strike Gerald in the chest with his killing palm…
