Chapter 1714: Chapter 1275: Want to See the God of Tree, Must Get Its Permission

The group moved in the shadows, passing by those tall, slender Star Descendants without being noticed at all.

It was only when they reached the depths of the crevice that Kadiz smiled and said, “It’s hard for ordinary people to notice shadows in strong light. I’ve been in and out, and they never noticed. But you are direct descendants of the God Star, so your powers are similar, and that’s why you discovered me.”

“Oh, I see, similar powers, no wonder I felt so familiar when I saw you,” Anthony quickly replied.

It’s best if it thinks this way. No wonder it showed itself so easily and invited them over so politely. It thought it was discovered because the powers were similar? Couldn’t it be that someone else has the ability to discover it?

If it remains this arrogant, it would be so easy to deal with. Anthony loved such ’friends’ the most.

As they talked, they arrived at the deepest part of the crevice. Ahead, Kadiz slowly shrank to the ground, getting shorter and shorter until it merged into the ground, forming a ’shadow.’

Immediately after, a shadow emerged from this ’shadow,’ and as it appeared, the entire world was filled with light and heat, switching the domain.

Ange and the others were switched out of the domain and immediately felt the temperature. The temperature here was much higher than in the shadow side; if the shadow side maintained around one thousand degrees, then here it was at least fifteen hundred degrees.

Remember, this was already the depth of the crevice, where sunlight couldn’t directly shine. If it were outside in direct sunlight, how high would the temperature be?

Anthony couldn’t help but say in the Soul Network, “This is truly a hidden sanctuary, where light and heat obscure all senses; you can’t see the crevice from the bright side at all. Its shadow domain can easily avoid strong light for entry and exit. Even if others knew there was a crevice here, it would be difficult to withstand the intense light and heat to find it. Hiding here is very safe.”

Realizing this, Anthony immediately wanted to notify Silver Coin to change the location of the Commerce Guild headquarters.

“I wonder why the Shadow Lord invited us here; do you have any instructions for us?” Once everyone emerged from the shadow domain, Anthony politely asked.

“Pure curiosity. It’s too rare to see direct descendants of the God Star. I wanted to know more about you,” Kadiz replied.

As Kadiz spoke, it gestured, and four candle-shaped Star Descendants floated in from outside, each holding a little fireball in their hands, presenting them to everyone.

Anthony’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said in the Soul Network, “This is not good; he’s testing us. This should be a form of hospitality, but I don’t know if it’s meant to be drunk or used to wash hands.”

This scenario is a bit like visiting a noble’s house, and a maid presents a basin of water. If you gulp it down, people will know you’re not a noble; it’s for washing hands.

So, what is this little fireball for?

Ange looked at it, reached out, and pinched the fireball. As he squeezed, the fireball expanded instantly, enveloping Ange’s body and forming a semi-transparent fire sphere.

The surrounding temperature suddenly dropped significantly, from fifteen hundred degrees back to about a thousand degrees.

“Uh, so it’s a temperature regulator?” Anthony said in surprise.

The Wizards at Stellaris Academy invented a magical device that uses an Ice Magic Array to regulate temperature, keeping the indoor temperature comfortable, and this little fireball had a similar effect.

Anthony and Negriss quickly followed suit, pinching their little fireballs in hand. After staying on the shadow side for so long, they’d adapted to its temperature, but now they realized that, indeed, around a thousand degrees was more comfortable.

Thank goodness they didn’t consume it recklessly. Who would have thought the little fireball was for cooling?

Kadiz also held its own little fireball, forming a semi-transparent fire sphere, and then approached them.

Anthony noticed that it deliberately let its fire sphere touch Anthony’s fire sphere. Since Ange and the others were standing close, its approach connected the four fire spheres together.

“More comfortable, right? It’s too hot here, affecting the stability of our forms. So, tell me, how were you born? Why can your place produce direct descendants?” Kadiz asked curiously.

Anthony feigned ignorance, saying, “I don’t know either; we were already like this when we gained consciousness. If I hadn’t met you, I wouldn’t have known we were direct descendants. What about you? How were you born?”

“Uh, I wasn’t born; I coexist with the God Star. Where there’s light, there’s shadow; I am the shadow of the God Star,” Kadiz replied.

“Ah? Coexistence? Then don’t you have the powerful strength of the God Star?” Anthony ’exclaimed’ in shock.

“No, no, how could I? The God Star is the origin of all things; I’m just a small shadow, far inferior to the God Star,” Kadiz hurriedly explained.

“But even so, as a being of that level, the Shadow Lord must be very powerful. Nice to meet you, and in the future, I ask for your guidance here,” Anthony began to flatter.

Kadiz seemed a little dizzy from the flattery. While saying it didn’t dare accept, it started boasting about its strength, completely forgetting its original intention.

Anthony naturally took advantage, setting up many traps in the conversation and extracting a lot of information. Afterward, Anthony confirmed something: this Kadiz was definitely not the shadow of this God Star. If there truly were God Star shadows, it was more likely to be the shadow of the Gray Divine Star.

“What kind of birthing process should we make up to deceive it?” Anthony asked in the Soul Network.

Ange shook his head.

“Ah? Can’t make it up? Is it because the existence mode is too complex?” Negriss asked.

Ange nodded. Though it seemed easy for him to merge into the God Star and come out this way, the difficulty was akin to two God Stars colliding.

It was the Seven Forces Unification Origin colliding with the God Star that resulted in their form. There was no general method to birth such direct descendants of the God Star.

No choice, Anthony had to continue pretending, firmly insisting they had been this way since childhood, without knowing the reason for their birth.

“Why don’t you take me to see where you were born? There might be something crucial hidden there,” Kadiz suggested.

“We can do that, but we haven’t finished everything we need to do. Once we’ve completed our tasks, we’ll take you there,” Anthony replied.

“What do you need to do? How long will it take?” Kadiz inquired.

Anthony replied, “We need to purchase some supplies and slaves, establish the Commerce Guild’s framework, organize production, and sell the goods we’ve brought.”

“Just that?” Kadiz felt it was too simple and was about to offer its help when Anthony continued, “We also wish to visit the God of Tree, hoping to gain its permission for certain matters.”
