Chapter 895: Divination
The next day, Ning pulled out Black Halo’s talisman and read it out loud.
“Goes to a town… healer… gives him books… goes to another town… tries delicacies… stays in a tavern for the night… leaves for a major city. Hmm, everything is here. Not bad, you really can divine quite accurately,” Ning said to Black Halo.
“Thank you for your praise, sage,” Black Halo said.
“Now that I know you’re good, I need your help,” Ning said.
“Anything,” Black Halo said.
“Good, let’s go then,” Ning said and grabbed Black Halo before disappearing from where they were. When they reappeared, they were inside the secret realm.
Black Halo looked at his changed surrounding with a wide eye. He couldn’t help but be shocked at what had just happened.
“How did we…?” he looked around, very much sure that they were not in the same space anymore.
Ning had teleported somehow, and he hadn’t used any skill, law, talisman, or formation to do so.
“Don’t mind that and follow me,” Ning said and walked away. Black Halo quickly followed him through a half-built tomb of some sort towards a massive hall that was the only thing that was built.
“What is this?” Black Halo asked.
“Try opening the door,” Ning said.
Black Halo nodded and pushed the door, but it didn’t work. “Can I use force?” he asked.
“Any method you can use,” Ning said.
Black Halo then attacked the door. With his cultivation base, any door should have crumbled in his might, and yet this one didn’t.
Various scripts and formations lit up, shocking the god as he had never seen anything like it before.
Then, he placed his palm on the door and looked for a future where he opened the door. There was none.
“I… I can’t open it,” he said.
“Good, that was my intention,” Ning said. “Behind this door is something that I have left behind for the people of this world. However, the door is set to open up for a single person based on a characteristic that I know would belong to their Qi.”
He turned to Black Halo and asked, “Now I want you to tell me when that person if ever, will open this door.”
“When will this door be open?” Black Halo looked back at the door. Divination between something that wasn’t living was virtually impossible. But it was possible to see who would interact with it.
So, he closed his eyes and began his divination.
Ning waited patiently as he understood that this was an incredibly difficult future to see. Not only would it possibly be forever in the future, but it could also just never happen.
“When the silver stone leads a way back home, the hands that open these doors will be born,” the Divination god said.
“What?” Ning asked with a confused look.
“I’m sorry,” the Divination god said. “I couldn’t see exactly what happens, so the best I could do was make a prophecy out of what I saw.”
“Oh, so that was a prophecy huh?” Ning said as he thought about the prophecy.
“Silver stone leads a way back home… that’s definitely talking about me leaving with the space stone. So… whoever is supposed to open this will only be born afterward huh?” Ning thought.
“I… suppose?” Black Halo said.
“Great, so I can spend as long as I need to make this place. I should go gather some reputation amongst the weaker folks who do not know about me,” Ning said.
Then, the two of them went back to Medicine Heaven where Black Halo split off from Ning.
“I will call you if I ever need you,” Ning said.
“Thank you, senior,” Black Halo said and left. He wasn’t worried about Ning not helping him with his curse. He had already seen how it was going to be fixed.
All he had to do now was live until the day Ning left this universe.
Ning went around with Saphandra, living a carefree life, attacking those he wanted to steal from. As long as the person had a divine realm of cultivation base, he would steal from them openly, letting them know about him.
It wasn’t just Medicine Heaven where he did so. He went through every world, becoming a menace.
Infernal Realm, Frozen Haven, Forest Moon Realm, Sun’s Talon, Mystic Demon Realm, Heavenly Fate realm, Fiend’s Sanctuary, Bloodhaven, Spring Water world, and many more such worlds were visited by him. By the time they left, even if they did not know the name Ning Ruogong, they knew of the Sage of Ten Thousand Treasures.
The higher-ups knew an even scarier name that made the rounds once the gods revealed the truth of how the Sky God had died.
The Godkiller.
Afterward, whenever Ning arrived at a place, the people would simply just invite him to their house as a guest and hand over every treasure they had.
Ning didn’t bother to check if they were handing over their best treasures or not as the only thing he was looking for was the quantity of treasures, and a reputation that he held a vast amount of treasures.
Ning did so for the next 300 thousand years. He spent a couple of hundred years stealing and a few years building his secret realm, and then the rest of the time he simply spent in the sky, close to the sun.
Ning’s body had grown so strong at this point that it was impossible for him to lose to anyone. Not just his body, but even his cultivation base was now strong enough to rival any gods.
After so many years, he was also finally done with fully creating a tomb that could run for generations. As for when it would start opening up for the public, he had a vague idea.
“Time to go get my last piece of reputation then,” Ning thought and teleported away. When he reappeared, he appeared in the Sky God’s palace.
Many gods were present here today, so it would be the best place for what he wanted to do.
