The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 2478

“I, for one, hadn’t expected it to fall into the hands of a commoner who would then start causing trouble with that devilish technique! Either way, I’m assuming that the forbidden book was guarded by your previous incarnation. If my guess is correct, he learned of the Herculean Primordial Spirit’s secrets while obtaining the book from your previous incarnation. Following that, he eventually managed to track you down.”

“If we’re going by this theory, then I can assure you that even though he was the one who raised your father to adulthood and founded the Crawford family, he isn’t your biological grandfather. It’s the only way for all of this to make sense!” explained Finnley.

“Sister Indigo and Second Uncle suggested this as well!” replied Gerald with a nod.

Chuckling in response, Finnley then said, “Regardless, I bet you must be interested in the Hellish Skynet technique now, right? If you are, don’t worry, many individuals from the Deitus Realm find that devilish technique irresistible. With that in mind, you can imagine how tempting it was for a commoner like Daryl to learn it!”

“I am. What kind of secret technique is it, exactly…?” asked Gerald in a curious tone.

“Well, when the world was formed, aside from righteous aura, masculine aura, and the holy spirit, another aura actually came to be. However, since it was unrelated to cultivation, people rarely mention it. I wonder if you know what that aura is called…” replied Finnley.

“Is it… the feculent aura?” asked Gerald after pondering for a bit.

“Bingo. Now, this devilish technique uses the three auras as its foundation. The three qi are the masculine auras that everyone possesses, and by stealing righteous aura, the devilish aura can be nurtured. However, in order to properly utilize the stolen righteous aura—and transform it into devilish aura—, feculent aura has to first be injected into the masculine aura. This technique generally requires a lot of feculent aura, and there’s really no escaping it.”

“That aside, from what I’ve gathered, Daryl has already accumulated the three auras and become a devil. With that said, don’t ever underestimate his cultivation level! Remember, he’s the one who stole the aura of heaven and earth for his personal gain!” added Finnley.

“Seriously…? With how high his cultivation level is, why did he kidnap my family and continuously threaten me instead of just capturing me straight off the bat?” asked Gerald. Had Daryl wanted to, that literal devil of a man could’ve easily captured the boy.

“Either way, regardless of his next move, the fact that he hasn’t picked a fight with us means he doesn’t dare face us yet. With that in mind, we need to hunt down his nest as soon as possible!”
