Yes, I became a god just by exercising.

Chapter 266 Dickedus visits again, the secret of the eternal certificate? (Part 1)

The platinum-colored ticket looked extremely durable, seemingly impossible to damage by any means.

At this moment, Xia Fa and the other two stared at the words on it, somewhat stunned.

The Dream Come True sea train is about to set sail again after fifty years.
This is an event on the Barron's Ocean that is even more significant than whale watching.

Those who didn't get to see the Dream Come True Sea Train at sea—those without tickets—naturally felt envious, discussed, and speculated.

As for the 100 lucky winners who received train tickets, they are also making as many preparations as possible.

After all, this is an extremely precious opportunity that only comes once every fifty years, and once missed, it's hard to come across it again!

In particular, the Dream Come True sea train can appear anywhere in the universe, and it's uncertain which planet it will be on next, just like the Fog Carnival, you might not even be able to catch it if you want to participate.

While the Fog Carnival welcomes all, the Dream Come True Sea Train is limited to only one hundred passengers.

Not to mention the irresistible reward of the Dream Come True Sea Train – fulfilling the dreams of every winner!

As long as you can complete the 24-hour survival challenge!
Therefore, seeing that the Dream Come True sea train would set sail shortly after midnight, Xia Fa, the Father of Ten Thousand Stars, and Princess Shark all inexplicably felt a sense of urgency.

Locke, however, could only look on with envy at the three platinum tickets in the sky. Even though he was an angel, he didn't have that privilege.

The next moment, the three platinum tickets flew back into the bags of Xia Fa and the other two.

This was the first time Xia Fa had encountered something flying out of the black bag on its own, which gave him a deeper understanding of the Dream Come True Sea Train.

At the same time, a faint hope began to stir in my heart.

After all, the more powerful and unpredictable the Dream Come True sea train is, the greater the probability that it can provide the reward that I need most, namely the overlord-level secret contract [Miracle Fantasy] that must be signed to become a true god!
These past few days, Xia Fa has been bored, especially while wandering around the night market in the City of Ten Thousand Stars. He has also tried to subtly inquire about clues regarding the overlord-level secret contract, "Miracle Fantasy".

As a result, they gained absolutely nothing.

Even the vast majority of people, including Tefal and the Laughing Clown, were unaware of the existence of this supreme-level secret contract.

This shows just how difficult it is to obtain the [Miracle Fantasy].

Let's see if it's on the Dream Come True sea train...

Even if there is none, Xia Fa would accept any clue that can be found.

"Will it set sail from the bay outside the City of Ten Thousand Stars right after midnight...?"

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars' eyes flickered as he murmured:

"I didn't expect it to be so fast. I just wonder what this 24-hour survival challenge will be like..."

Xia Fa had inquired about it beforehand and even communicated with Tefal and others, and understood that each 24-hour survival challenge of the Dream Come True Sea Train was completely different and never repeated.

The only information available is that, unlike the Golden Beacon Scroll, there is no restriction on entry to those below a certain rank on the Dream Come True sea train.

In other words, this is an unfair competition. From the Great Emperor of Mystery to the superhuman of the Fungus level, anyone can become one of the hundred passengers, depending entirely on their own abilities.

Princess Shark's gaze also became distant:

"Back then, I actually obtained this incomplete 'Dance King Mask' from the Dream Come True sea train..."

Xia Fa had always been very curious about her identity, especially the fact that she and Auf seemed to be the same person.

However, it wasn't a good time to ask too many questions, so I just smiled and said:
"Hopefully, we can all survive this time. After all, I heard that only one in six people who enter the Dream Come True sea train ever come out."

Princess Shark seemed to recall something, and said with an even more wistful tone:

"Yes, if there are a hundred people, only sixteen will survive..."

The father of all stars jokingly remarked:
"Compared to others, I believe you are definitely much safer, cousin. After all, even the Roaring Emperor is no match for you."

Locke had long been curious about how his brother and cousin had managed to kill the Roaring Emperor so quickly, and upon hearing this, he was utterly astonished:
"The Roaring Emperor... died at his cousin's hands?"

Although He had long guessed that his cousin, as the future Emperor of Mystery, must be quite powerful, He never expected him to be so terrifying!
The Roaring Emperor... that's a transcendent monarch who signed fifteen secret contracts! Moreover, he's been at sea for hundreds of years, experiencing countless battles, big and small, making him extremely fierce and cunning!

Xia Fa smiled faintly:
"While that is true, the Roaring Emperor was not only severely injured at the time, but he also detonated so many supernatural creatures and monsters that he had devoured and absorbed. I was actually lucky to be able to kill him."

He wasn't being modest; it was true that the Roaring Emperor was seriously injured from the very beginning due to the combined sneak attack of the three of them.

Moreover, at the last moment, the Roaring Emperor used a trump card that was almost a Pyrrhic victory, detonating the heads of so many monsters in his belly in an attempt to kill the Father of Ten Thousand Stars.

Otherwise, Xia Fa understood that he really wasn't so capable of instantly killing the Roaring Emperor.

He does indeed possess the strength to confront a transcendent monarch who has signed fifteen secret contracts head-on, but being able to confront them head-on and being able to kill them completely are two different things.

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars sighed:
"I guess His first thought was to escape, but He was afraid that you and I would join forces to hunt Him down, since we are both signatories of the Stargate. So He decided to take a gamble, kill me first, and then escape, which would greatly reduce the chances of being caught. I just didn't expect..."

At this point, the Father of Ten Thousand Stars suddenly remembered something and asked with great curiosity:

"By the way, cousin, what happened to that three-headed, six-winged silver dragon you transformed into?"

Although, throughout the history of the extraordinary world, there have only been a handful of signatories to the Silver Throne, resulting in a limited number of records.

However, as a signatory to the Silver Throne, Xia Fa's ability for the Silver Throne to transform from a human form into a dragon form was somewhat beyond the imagination of the Father of All Stars.

In particular, after Xiafa transformed into the three-headed, six-winged Star Silver Dragon form, it seemed that its speed, strength, and destructive power all increased dramatically, leaving the Roaring Emperor completely powerless to fight back.

The Shark Princess, floating in the air, also looked at Xia Fa. Beneath the Dancer King's mask, her wine-red pupils also showed curiosity, and she seemed quite puzzled.

Xia Fa laughed:
"Would you believe me if I said I didn't even know what happened?"

He wasn't lying. The form of these three six-winged silver dragons was formed when his eyes underwent a transformation during his physical training, and the strange power emanating from them combined with Rhine silver mercury.

Moreover, aside from the first time, it seems that in subsequent battles, one needs to slowly mobilize the strange power of the eyeballs to complete the second transformation.

Xia Fa even suspected that the first time was because there was too much strange power accumulated in his eyeballs, which caused him to directly transform into the form of the Star Silver Dragon.

However, regardless of the circumstances, the form of this Star Silver Dragon is indeed much stronger than its human form, strictly adhering to the rule that "the larger the size of the Silver Throne form of the Silver Throne signatory, the stronger it is."

How can you compare six meters and over 170 meters?

Since Xia Fa has become increasingly mysterious, both the Father of Ten Thousand Stars and Princess Shark chose to believe him when he said this.

"By the way, with you becoming like that, isn't there a risk of you getting out of control? You'd better be careful, cousin."

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars recalled the scene in the underwater cave, especially the image of Xia Fa after he transformed into a Star Silver Dragon, his body pitch black and covered with tentacles and eyeballs. He couldn't help but feel a little worried and made an extra mention of it.

Xia Fa laughed and said:

"Are you referring to the tentacles and eyeballs that grew after I was covered in dark energy? Those have nothing to do with my Silver Throne's secret bond ability; they're a kind of..."

He paused slightly before continuing:
"...a forbidden secret technique that was jointly prohibited by the nine great gods."

Seeing that the Crimson Agents had become so powerful, having signed a total of twenty-five secret contracts, Xia Fa made his decision in that instant.

That is, he had already passed on the forbidden secret technique of critical loss of control to his little brother Alexander, and had also discussed it with Tefal and the Laughing Clown.

So, it seems... it can also be passed on to Cousin Hercules and Cousin Locke.

As for Princess Shark, after going through life and death together, we're practically family now, so it's okay to share this.

In this situation, if Cousin Hercules and Princess Shark could learn it, their ability to escape would be greatly enhanced if they were to encounter the Crimson Agent, which Shafa would naturally be happy to see.

"A forbidden secret technique that was jointly prohibited by the nine righteous gods?"

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars gasped, his previous composure and majesty completely gone.

After all, in a world where everyone believes in the nine righteous gods, this news is nothing short of a bombshell, enough to stir up a huge wave in everyone's heart!
Princess Shark's pupils trembled:

"So, that small patch of dark aura that appeared above the Roaring Emperor's head at that time..."

Xia Fa noticed this at the time and laughed:

"Yes, He also mastered this forbidden secret technique, but His mastery was very incomplete. I don't know if it was because the Crimson Agent deliberately didn't teach Him the whole thing, or for some other reason."

He had initially wanted to suggest that perhaps the Roaring Emperor himself hadn't mastered it, but after some thought, he decided against saying it for the time being.

Because I'm about to teach this forbidden secret technique to my three cousins, it would be difficult for them if I told them in advance. It might create psychological barriers for them and hinder their mastery of it.

The father of ten thousand stars remarked with emotion:
"Cousin, what have you been through these past few days? You've actually mastered a forbidden technique of this level, one that even the nine great gods have joined forces to ban..."

Locke was completely unable to get a word in edgewise and could only listen from the sidelines, but his expression naturally showed astonishment.

Xia Fa's tone suddenly turned serious:

"In any case, the boost to strength from near-uncontrolled loss of control is undeniable, and the risks are actually manageable. Therefore, I'm prepared to teach you this forbidden secret technique, as long as you promise not to reveal it..."

His gaze slowly swept over the Father of Ten Thousand Stars, the Shark Princess, and Locke's cousin, and he asked solemnly:
"...Are you willing?"

The Father of All Stars almost without hesitation:
"Yes! Of course I'm willing! I didn't know before, but now that I do, it would be a lifelong regret not to learn it."

Princess Shark also said seriously:
"If you're willing to teach me this forbidden secret technique, then I'll owe you a huge favor, Xia Fa. I'll do anything you ask of me from now on."

Locke pointed incredulously to his face:

"Cousin, I...I got a share too?"

Xia Fa laughed:

"Everyone gets a share, as long as you don't leak it out. It doesn't matter who learns it."

As for whether the three of them would learn it and then pass it on to others in private, Xia Fa wasn't worried about that. Just like how the Clown of Surprise couldn't directly teach him this forbidden secret technique, it seemed that only those who had perused the Golden Beacon Scroll, or rather, those who had received the complete infusion of the Critical Loss of Control method from the Golden Beacon Scroll, had the ability to teach it to others.

Those who have learned it cannot completely pass it on to others; it is extremely difficult, filled with various coincidences or forbidden methods unknown to Xia Fa himself.

After all, the process of imparting knowledge itself required him to condense those little black lines and various complex and obscure secret texts, which gives a glimpse into the extent of his abilities.

Seeing that Xia Fa was really going to teach them, the three of them were overjoyed and were almost ready to become Xia Fa's disciples on the spot.

Xia Fa cautiously condensed the red-silver star shell again, sprinkled the shadow gold powder, and then began to teach.

……

Several hours passed in the blink of an eye.

pat!

In the subspace resembling an emperor's suite, the red and silver star shell shattered.

Xia Fa stood among them, facing the three, but his face was full of a bitter smile:
"Is it really impossible to learn?"

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars shook his head and sighed:
"No wonder the Roaring Emperor was on the verge of death, but could only cover his scalp with the area on the verge of going out of control. This forbidden secret technique is too difficult to master. I feel that I probably won't be able to learn it in my entire life."

Locke, on the other hand, looked ashen-faced.

"Sigh, since I started listening to your instructions, cousin, I've tried it a full thirty-one times. It's too difficult, it's just too difficult."

A hint of sadness flickered in Princess Shark's wine-red eyes as she lowered her head.

"As expected, even those who can sign a hegemon-level secret pact can't learn it, let alone someone like me who is a ruler..."

Xia Fa hadn't expected that the Father of Ten Thousand Stars, the Princess of the Sharks, and Locke's cousin... all three of them combined couldn't learn it.

He had previously held onto a sliver of hope, thinking that his younger brother Alexander might simply be physically unsuitable, and that it wasn't entirely dependent on talent.

On the other hand, the talent required to become a ruler or an extraordinary monarch far surpasses that required to become an angelic overlord.

In other words, even if talent is required, the Father of a Thousand Stars and the Princess of the Sharks are actually far more talented than Alexander, and it is possible for them to learn it.

However, Xia Fa never expected things to turn out this way...

The Father of All Stars sighed:
"Perhaps this is talent. This forbidden secret technique, since it can greatly enhance strength, has not spread widely. I had never even heard of it before. One reason is that the nine great gods joined forces to prohibit it, but another reason is that many people simply cannot learn it due to a lack of talent."

Princess Shark sighed softly:

“I think so too, Xia Fa. Since you can master the Divine Battle Technique and sign two Overlord-level secret contracts at the same time, it’s normal for you to learn it. What’s easy for you is something that others might not be able to do at all. That’s the difference in talent.”

Locke laughed and said:
"No matter what, we are very grateful that you shared this forbidden secret technique with us, cousin. Anyway, I will practice it whenever I have time. Who knows, maybe one day I will master it?"

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars immediately said:
"Yes, if I don't have the talent, I'll make up for it with hard work. I'll spend a few hours every day exploring and practicing, and maybe I'll be able to master it. That would be a huge win, haha."

Princess Shark also spoke with a firm tone:

“I will not give up either. Moreover, Xia Fa, since you have passed on this forbidden secret technique to me, my previous promise still stands.”

Seeing that the three were not only very good at comforting themselves, but also had a strong will, Xia Fa felt relieved.

All I can say is, he's a man who's been at sea for a long time; his mindset has been tempered and refined through countless trials and tribulations, and he's just different...

As for the issue of talent... well, there's really nothing that can be done about that.

At this moment, Xia Fa realized more and more deeply that in this extraordinary world, talent not only exists, but it is also more important the higher one's position and level.

Whether it's divine battle tactics, near-loss of control, or signing more secret agreements... they are all closely related to each person's talent.

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars suddenly thought of something and said:
"Now that everything's settled, I need to contact my old subordinates before the Dream Come True sea train sets sail and distribute these treasures and sealed artifacts to them. Cousin, is there anything else I can help you with?"

Xia Fa smiled slightly:
"That's all, cousin. You can go about your business. See you at midnight."

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars nodded quite solemnly:

"Okay, see you tonight."

With a flash, it transformed into starlight and entered the newly appeared rift in the Star Spirit Realm.

Princess Shark then added:

“Xia Fa, I also need to talk to the people on the Shark Swarm about some things, especially now that the Crimson Agent has become a minor rank stronger than the old-school transcendent monarchs. From now on, our Shark Swarm pirate crew will probably have to go into hiding.”

Xia Fa could only smile and say:
"Go ahead, go ahead, there's nothing much going on here for now anyway."

Actually, given the status of these two pirate emperors, there's absolutely no need to ask him...

Princess Shark said seriously:

"Okay, see you tonight, Xia Fa."

Her petite figure, floating in the air, flashed and disappeared directly into this subspace.

Inside the subspace set up in the Emperor's Suite, only Locke and Shafa remained.

Locke immediately came over excitedly:

"Cousin, quick, tell me, how did you fight the Roaring Emperor, and how did you kill him?"

Seeing his cousin's curious and excited expression, Xia Fa couldn't help but feel a little sentimental, just like when he was a little kid more than ten years ago, following him around to the beach to catch small fish and shrimp.

The beautiful memories of my childhood flooded back, one after another, and I couldn't stop them from coming back to mind.

"Okay, go get a few bottles of wine, I'll have a good talk with you."

……

After half an hour.

With a creak, Xia Fa opened the door to his bedroom in the Emperor's Suite.

Since his cousin's subspace was set up similarly to the Emperor Suite at the Lushurui Grand Hotel, but was infinitely safer and more secluded, Xia Fa naturally decided to stay there.

As for the Emperor Suite at the Lushuri Hotel, he plans to cancel it tonight.

Although I already have 150 million gold pounds in cash, I still need to save where I can, and that's not contradictory.

"Although the battle with the Roaring Emperor was short, I actually killed Him. That should have increased my understanding of the Mystic Singularity quite a bit, right?"

In order to smoothly advance the understanding of the Mystic Singularity, a supreme-level secret treaty, and in order to seize the Eternal Certificate from Dionysius before its emergence in ten days,
During this period, Xia Fa has been doing his best to improve his strength.

After all, becoming the only free-moving god in the real world... the temptation is just too great, and it's hard for anyone not to be tempted.

If I really succeed, then not only will I have the ability to protect myself and anyone I want to protect, but I will also be able to explore many secrets about this world, and even secrets about myself.

Thinking this, Xia Fa was about to close his eyes and enter the boundary between his mental body and his astral body.

But at that moment, the luxuriously decorated bedroom suddenly shifted.

Click! Click! Click!

Not far in front of the bed, cracks like shattered glass filled the air, and then pieces fell down one by one, emanating the aura of the Celestial Spirit Realm.

Xia Fa felt a chill run down his spine and immediately considered all possible scenarios.

Is this yet another attempt by gods or unknown beings to approach the real world?
Or did the Crimson Executors find their hiding place and hunt them down in such a short time?
Is it even possible that Dionysius, the Emperor of Mysteries, knew of his future identity as the Emperor of Mysteries and came to personally eliminate him in order to eliminate all risks?
Almost instantly, Xia Fa prepared to exile himself to the Protoss Realm to avoid disaster.

Suddenly, the space completely cracked open, and a... traveling whale emerged from it, its massive body swaying.

The traveling whale was entirely black, but its round body was covered with the heads of all sorts of monsters, including many human and demi-human heads, making it extremely bizarre and grotesque.

Normally, anyone who sees such a monstrous, alien traveling whale would be on high alert, wary of a possible attack.

But Xiafa immediately relaxed, and even a relieved smile appeared on her face.

"Dick Tudor?"

He tentatively asked a question in return, while casually scattering a handful of gold dust into the bedroom.

Almost instantly, a familiar spiritual intuition, one that Xia Fa recognized, was transmitted from inside the belly of the monster traveling whale.

"It's me, Xia Fa. You have no idea how much you've done me, hahaha!"

Xia Fa was taken aback:
"What's the big favor?"

Dickinson's spiritual intuition, filled with joy, immediately conveyed itself:

"Did you steal a Plunder Orb from that Crimson Agent guy?"

Xia Fa was genuinely surprised this time:

"You, how did you know?"

Dick's spiritual intuition came again, but it delivered an extremely bombshell message:

"Of course I know, because this plundering of the Holy Orb is closely related to one of the [Eternal Tokens], namely [Eternal Plunder]!"
