chapter-1013
Damien wasn't a stranger to the rumors about Prismatic Sun Holy Land.
Many experts he devoured had memories related to this place, making it clear just how much of an unsolved mystery its existence was in the universe.
The Laws they studied were mysterious, and while most of the time the disciples used Fire Laws, their specific version of the Law was far more complex than one would expect from a basic element.
On the other hand, their most powerful disciples and the majority of their elders wielded a different Law that nobody in the universe had been able to decipher yet.
Damien, as someone who'd never had contact with the Holy Land, was one of these people.However, he knew a bit more about them than ordinary people.
Because the Prismatic Sun Holy Land had a connection with the universe's Primal Sovereigns.
The Fifth Primal Sovereign's memories had several moments where he had contact with the Holy Land, but he was an independent thinker and set his sights on the Void early, so the amount of available information wasn't much.
'All I know is that the higher Primal Sovereigns are much more in touch with them than he was, and their Holy Master is…'
Damien couldn't put his finger on what it was about that woman, but she gave off an extremely dangerous scent.
And her contact with the Primal Sovereigns was incredibly significant, as these beings were quite literally some of the oldest entities in the universe.
The secrets they held were unimaginable.When Damien realized that the Holy Land group he came in contact with was actually from Prismatic Sun Holy Land, his mind whirred.
It simply couldn't be a coincidence, right?
Many hours had passed since they first "saved" him, and with the help of their miraculous pill, the grievous wounds on his body had long since recovered.
'It's about time.'
Damien scanned with his awareness first to prevent a situation like the last time he was saved from a crater before allowing his eyes to flutter open, revealing the dry rocky ceiling of the cave to his gaze.
"Mmgh…"
He moaned lightly and hazily sat up, rubbing his head groggily.
"Hm?"
A voice came from the side.
"Senior sister, he's awake!"
Damien immediately shot up and made distance, flaring his mana warily.
"Who are you, and where the hell am I?" He growled at the veiled woman a few meters in front of him.
"E-eh?! Why are you panicking? We saved your life, you know!" The girl exclaimed angrily.
"My life is my own to control. Who told you to save me?" He responded with an arrogant expression on his face.
"You…you…!" The girl pointed at him angrily, clearly fuming, but before she could make any hasty moves, another woman walked into the cave.
"Dalia, relax. Leave here, you can't deal with him," the woman said, staring at Damien.
"Do not be wary. We are disciples of Prismatic Sun Holy Land. I'm sure you've heard of us?" She continued after her junior sister exited the room.
"Prismatic Sun Holy Land…?" Damien echoed.
"I see, so that mysterious force has come here too. Since you're such an esteemed character, there must be a reason you saved me, right?"
"Straight to the point, I see. Indeed, there is a reason we saved you. There are some people we're looking for, and I was hoping you could help."
"Why me?"
"Anyone who can survive an impact like that is not normal. I'm sure you have been in this realm for quite some time and seen most there is to be seen."
"Your flattery skill is higher than expected."
"I practiced it well."
The woman flicked her sleeve and sent two scrolls at Damien, which he caught and opened.
His eyes didn't change, but his mind went alert.
There were many individuals on the list, all of which were the most prominent geniuses of the universe.
Naturally, Su Ren's face was much larger than the rest and placed at the top of the first scroll, but what Damien didn't expect…
…was that his own face held the same position on the second one!
'I should've been unknown to most of the universe before I showed up here. Why are they putting me on the same level as Su Ren?'
"Most of these geniuses are from Holy Lands, and there isn't anybody in the universe who doesn't know of the Blade God, but who is this man?" He asked, gesturing to his own face while inwardly praising his disguise.
The woman nodded in understanding. "It's normal if you haven't seen him. He is one of the most elusive geniuses in our Grand Heavens Boundary, but our Prismatic Sun Holy Land has been following his movements for a long time. If you have seen him or the others, please tell us their locations. We will be sure to reward you."
"Why are you looking for them?"
The woman's eyes abruptly sharpened. A highly contained yet extremely sharp aura surrounded her body, giving Damien a feeling like his throat was on the edge of countless blades.
"There is no need for you to know this, yes?"
"Hmm, feisty…I do know where quite a few of them are, but I have a condition if you want me to tell you," Damien responded, putting his hands up innocently.
"And that is?" The woman questioned coldly.
Damien grinned without care.
"Let me come with you."
The woman's eyes slightly widened at his request.
"For what reason should I grant your request?"
Damien shrugged. "I don't know. You want information and I want entertainment. Won't we both win if we do it this way?"
"Hmm…"
The woman glanced him up and down and even scanned him with her awareness.
From their interaction, she could tell that he was strong, but he wasn't stronger than her.
'I am confident I can protect my junior sisters if this man turns out to be a pervert, but is it truly worth the effort…?'
Preferably, such a thing wouldn't be done. However, they were currently in need of this man's help.
'It would be far easier to find someone else to procure information from, but this man is strange. Disregarding his strength, his aura almost reminds me of…'
"Fine. We will do as you say," she finally said, making her decision.
The people on the list were important targets, but they weren't the only targets. If she had stumbled upon a hidden gem in this man, she couldn't waste the opportunity.
"Then, it's a pleasure working with you," Damien responded with a smile.
"Ah, by the way, my name is Long Chen, and you?"
The woman glanced at him indifferently and turned around.
"Pandora. We will leave when the sun rises tomorrow. Please prepare your information before then."
"Mm, no problem."
Damien watched as the woman left, and when her figure finally vanished from his sight…
"Oh, by the way, pay attention to your stamina in the coming days."
He muttered some words of advice.
In the distance, Pandora's head turned in his direction, a frown forming on her face as she turned around and continued walking.
As for Damien, he laid back on the rocky floor and placed his hands behind his head.
'This should be fun…'
