Chapter 1389 The Arcane Church: It Does Not Feel Like a Loss, We Might Have Even Profited

Retracting his gaze from the attribute interface, Han Xiao turned around and saw Kasuyi looking like he wanted to test out his Transcendent strength personally. He smiled and waved.

“There’s no need for a spar. I’ve just stepped into the Transcendent Grade, so I’m not familiar with my strength yet. If I don’t control it well, I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold back and kill you. If that happens, I’ll have to revive you and give myself more trouble.”

Is this even human language?

Kasuyi tilted his head. Seeing that Han Xiao had no intention of showing it, Kasuyi did not insist and could only give up on this thought for the time being. After all, there was still a long way to go, he would see it sooner or later.

Glancing at the four of them, Han Xiao smiled and said,

“Everyone, I still need to familiarize myself with my strength, so I’ll take my leave first… By the way, Wuornos, just let me know when you’re ready to unseal the Ten Thousand Deity Scepter.” With that said, he nodded and left. He disappeared from everyone’s sight in a flash. The remaining four looked at each other. The atmosphere was a little strange. Black Star had shown them the way to become a Transcendent. This kind of secret was most valuable only if they held it alone. None of the four of them were willing to leak it out. If it was in the past, they might even have thought of killing each other. However, the times had changed. Black Star was above them, and the association had united the Beyond Grade As. There were still enemies outside, so they could only endure others sharing this secret.

“Don’t forget Black Star’s instructions. It’s enough for us to know his method of advancement. Don’t tell anyone else without his approval,” Sierron said with a deep voice.

“Heh, do I look like someone who would spout nonsense?” Milizaus snorted. “Black Star is the president, and we’re also members of the association. Of course, we won’t say anything, but the direct descendants of the civilization might .” Kasuyi narrowed his eyes and stared at Wuornos. Hearing this, Milizaus and Sierron also turned to look at Wuornos with subtle expressions.

None of them had the motive to leak the secret, but Wuornos was a direct member of the church. If the upper echelons of the civilization asked him for this method, would he keep it a secret? As a member of the association, the three of them considered it from the perspective of the faction. If the association was the only one who knew how to advance to the Beyond Grade, it would be a new bargaining chip to attract Supers, and they would be able to suppress the three Universal Civilizations in terms of individual strength.

Wuornos’ face was calm, and he did not give in verbally. He said casually, “I will also try to advance. Even if I don’t say it, they will know when the time comes.”

“Tsk.” Sierron snorted but did not retort.

Seeing that the three of them had nothing else to say, Wuornos did not stay any longer. He turned around and left in a hurry.

He only wanted to return to the Arcane Church as soon as possible, unable to wait to study Black Star’s advancement method. Kasuyi and the other two watched him leave without moving. “The Church’s National Treasure is in this guy’s hands. With Black Star’s successful case, the Arcane Church probably won’t lend it to outsiders anymore…” Milizaus smacked his lips.

“Hmm, in that case, only Wuornos and the direct members of the church will be able to replicate the method that Black Star used. We can forget about it.” Sierron nodded. “Black Star is a Mechanic and has reached a higher level. Maybe he can find a replacement. We’ll know when we ask.”

Kasuyi’s expression was calm.

Considering that the Arcane Church National Weapon was an indispensable tool for Black Star’s advancement method, the few of them had the thought of snatching it. However, after thinking about it, they decided not to. Wuornos was not easy to deal with, and the three of them represented the association. They were not willing to create trouble for Black Star.

Now that Black Star had opened a new level, his position as the association’s leader was even more stable. Originally, they were all on the same level, so even if they listened to his orders temporarily, they would not treat themselves as Black Star’s subordinates.

However, as Black Star entered a new realm, their relationship subtly changed. It was just that the three of them had yet to feel the subtle change in their subconscious. At this time, Milizaus suddenly thought of something and asked, “By the way, although the method of advancement has to be kept a secret, there’s no need to hide the fact that Black Star has become a Transcendent, right?”

Kasuyi shook his head and said, “Since Black Star did not give any special instructions, then there’s no need to. Furthermore, there’s no need to hide such a good thing. However, it’s only limited to the upper echelons of the association. As for the three Universal Civilizations, they will most likely know about the situation through Wuornos, but they won’t spread it around.”

On the other side, the Arcane Church.

“What did you say? Black Star actually succeeded?!” The Pope’s eyes widened in shock. Wuornos, who had come to report, nodded calmly and slowly continued. “That’s right. Black Star has already stepped into a higher level of individual strength. He named it the Transcendent Grade. I witnessed it with my own eyes.” “Didn’t you say that stepping into the new tier is very difficult? You said that lending out the Void Spirit Kingdom’s weapon would be no big deal, because how many times Black Star would fail?” The Pope stared at Wuornos, both shocked and furious.

“Oh, I miscalculated,” Wuornos said with an expressionless face.

“That’s it?! Do you think you can get away with it with just this sentence?!”

The Pope glared at him, getting even more furious.

If not for the fact that you kept emphasizing that this deal would definitely be profitable, why would we lend the Void Spirit National Treasure to help Black Star advance? Are you hooking up with Black Star and speaking for him to trick me?! I really don’t believe you! “Then what do you want?” Wuornos glanced at him.

The Pope closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm himself down. Only then did he speak. “No matter what, this has already happened. Think of a way to salvage the situation.”

Because of a wrong decision, he had helped Black Star reach a higher level of individual strength. He was filled with regret. If he had known, he would have rejected Black Star’s request! However, now was not the time to shift the blame. He was the one who had given the order, and he could not shirk the responsibility. The Pope quickly got rid of his anger, regret, and other emotions. “On the bright side, at least we got the Ten Thousand Deity Scepter back… provided Black Star doesn’t go back on his word.” The Pope shook his head. “There’s no need for him to go back on his word,” Wuornos said calmly. “This Universal Treasure is no longer a threat to him.”

“That’s true…”

Hearing this, the Pope felt even more upset. He only felt that the Ten Thousand Deity Scepter was no longer that tempting.

This deal was a huge loss!

However, at this moment, Wuornos slowly said,

“However, it’s not like I didn’t gain anything this time. I watched the entire process of Black Star’s advancement and have already grasped his method. I won’t be as clueless as before. I can replicate this successful case and reach a higher level.” The Pope sat in silence for a moment before his eyes lit up. Although the advancement of Black Star was beneficial to the war against the outside world, it would not be a good thing for the three Universal Civilizations in the long term. However, his direct descendant had now learned the method of Black Star’s advancement. As long as they succeeded, he would have another Transcendent Grade Super on his side to fight Black Star, forming a new balance without having to worry about Black Star losing control! More importantly, the ones who could use this method were the people of the Church. Even if the three Universal Civilizations were linked together right now, there were still segregated as civilizations. With this method, the Church could also suppress the other two civilizations in terms of individual strength! The Pope was in a good mood. “How confident are you of success?”

Wuornos thought for a moment and nodded, “There’s a seventy percent chance that I can reach the Transcendent Grade like Black Star.” “Okay!”

The Pope perked up. The 70% chance was quite high! When they were chatting in the past, Wuornos had said that he was not confident at all. Now, the chance had increased countless times.
