Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 486 Taoist

The riot in the "River of Eternal Darkness" was so unexpected that Klein was completely unprepared.

The consequence of the riot was that Klein was caught off guard and suddenly covered and submerged by the waters of the "River of Eternal Darkness".

"The Mysterious Realm"!

Suddenly, a world made of shadows appeared around Klein, which was the "prototype of the divine kingdom" belonging to the "mysterious servant".

Taking advantage of the nascent divine kingdom, Klein bought himself a moment. His main body within the "Source Castle" raised its cloak, and a thick gray mist tightly enveloped Klein's body, preventing the river water from polluting him.

"What's going on?" Klein held the phoenix ornament in his hand. The eye of the ornament contained a space filled with the river water he had collected.

The riots in the "River of Eternal Darkness" seem to be related to his collection of river water.

"I only collected this little bit of river water, is it really that big of a deal?" Klein blinked, feeling like he had been wronged.

He roughly guessed the reason: the "River of Eternal Darkness" at the end of the Fourth Era was much larger than it is now, but it was destroyed by Truman, who even took all the river water.

That's why the River of Eternal Darkness is now rioting because he's collecting this little bit of "River of Eternal Darkness" water.

"Hurry up, we can't stay here any longer." Klein was swimming upstream in the river, but the river was actually a collection of concepts such as death, eternal sleep, and decay.

"Where is this..." Klein sensed the outside world; the river water was almost tangible, deep and deathly still, and the gray mist around Klein was constantly fading away.

"I've ventured deep into the 'River of Eternal Darkness'?" Klein felt a chill run down his spine.

"The space here is extremely chaotic, probably a remnant of the 'River of Eternal Darkness' that was unleashed when the Phoenix Ancestor broke the seal. Taking one wrong step could lead you deeper into the darkness..."

Klein, empowered by the "Source Castle," can now use some of the powers of a "Planetary Planeswalker," and has now determined his situation through his perception of space.

"This is troublesome." Klein frowned, but before he could make up his mind, the waters of the "River of Eternal Darkness" outside the gray fog seemed to boil and rushed towards Klein.

"What kind of deep-seated grudge is this!" Klein's expression changed slightly.

"Dreamlike!" In a daze, Klein seemed to hear a faint roar.

Klein: ...

This is a case of mistaken identity! Klein had a sudden realization that it was because he had just used a large amount of the power of the Dream Phosphorescence to deal with the "Emperor of the Underworld" that some kind of will mistook him for Truman.

The moment he had that thought, he, as part of the dreamlike phosphorescence, immediately withdrew.

At this moment, the impact of the "River of Eternal Darkness" was indeed much less.

But in the next instant, an even more terrifying power and pollution surged from the depths of that "River of Eternal Darkness".

"Heavenly Venerable!" That will seemed to have gone even more insane, and with its outburst, it directly suppressed the gray mist to within a few centimeters of Klein.

Well... it seems that the "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun" who sealed the "Eternal Dark River" has a more ironic quality.

Klein inwardly scoffed, then dared not wait any longer. He shook the "Last Supper," summoning the power of one of the angel kings.

Salinger, the God of the Dead!

It wasn't the "Emperor of the Underworld," but the "God of the Dead" who participated in "Redemption of the Rose."

Salinger plunged directly into the "River of Eternal Darkness," using his status to guide Klein in a direction.

"I have no choice but to take the risk!" Klein took a step forward, using his Planeswalker abilities to delve deeper into the source of the River of Eternal Darkness.

The "River of Eternal Darkness" seeped out from the Gray Mist Seal, so its source must be the Gray Mist Seal. Klein wanted to use the Gray Mist to escape the "River of Eternal Darkness"!

This is somewhat risky, but it's not without the possibility of success.

Klein used the "Planets Walker" ability several times, gradually delving deeper, and sensed the presence of the gray mist.

He was about to use the power of the gray mist to escape, but suddenly his spirit sensed something and he looked in a certain direction.

There seemed to be layers of sounds piercing through the gray fog and reaching the ears of him, the master of the "Source Castle".

"...Blessed Heavenly Venerable..." Klein's eyes narrowed.

"Is that the Western Continent over there...?" Klein made a reasonable deduction.

The seal of the "Lord of Mysteries" was weakened here, allowing the "River of Eternal Darkness" to seep out, partly because this is probably one of the closest coordinates to the Western Continent.

"Let's go!" Klein withdrew his gaze, and his main body on the "Source Castle" and he simultaneously activated the power of the "Source Castle".

At the same time, Klein was also chanting the incantation for the fortune-changing ritual he had obtained.

"Fusheng Xuanhuang Immortal Lord;

Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianjun;

Fusheng Xuanhuang God;

Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun. "

As the last word fell, a grayish-white mist immediately filled the "River of Eternal Darkness".

The surging "River of Eternal Darkness" was instantly suppressed. Klein vaguely sensed something and looked up at the source of the tributary of the "River of Eternal Darkness".

There seemed to be something watching me from there.

Klein felt a chill run down his spine, his pupils contracted sharply, and a "door" quickly appeared behind him. This door was made of grayish-white mist and was also supported by the power of the "Source Castle".

He took a step back and disappeared into the light portal formed by the condensed mist.

—After reciting the corresponding honorific name and activating the gray-white mist, his connection with the "Source Castle" became unprecedentedly close. He used the gray-white mist to open a door directly behind him that led to the "Source Castle".

"Whoosh!" Klein's body dissipated directly, having been dispersed and disinfected by his own original body. He remained extremely vigilant towards the entity that was spying on him, and dared not relax.

He then took the phoenix ornament into his hand and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that it was correct.

"That thing just now..." Klein thought for a moment, then began to conjure paper and pen, sketching on the white paper.

A few minutes later, an old Taoist priest dressed in an ancient gray robe and wearing a yin-yang crown appeared on the paper.

Klein stared silently at the Taoist he had created.

"This art style is off..." Klein composed himself and muttered to himself.

This Taoist priest was the feedback from his spirit, the one watching him from the source of a tributary of the "River of Eternal Darkness".

He is most likely still located on the other side of the seal on the western continent, but he can extend his power through the "River of Eternal Darkness".

Those two previous roars probably also came from Him.

"This is a civilization from the Western Continent..." Klein made his judgment based on intuition, "An organization that worships 'Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun' and 'people' who can use the power of other source matter."

"The situation on the Western Continent should be quite interesting," Klein concluded, a very subjective conclusion, probably because the Taoist's attire made him feel a sense of familiarity.
