The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1350

“…Is she really that important…? Even Gerald is still looking for her… Honestly, had you not misled him with the Dead Annies back then, he would’ve already succeeded in finding her by this point!” said Yume rather curiously.

“Well of course he’s still looking for her! After all, this woman in white is one of Gerald’s women!” replied Yreth as she squinted her eyes.

“…She’s… Gerald’s what? But… She’s already been in that coffin for at least tens of thousands of years, hasn’t she?” asked Yume, shaking her head in disbelief.

“Well, to be more specific, her name is Zyla Lockland, and she was Gerald’s woman in his past life! Regardless, stop interrupting me and let me elaborate before you ask any more questions! You’ll understand everything once I’m done explaining!” replied Yreth as she rested her arms behind her back before starting to pace back and forth as she slowly told Yume the entire story…

With her ears perked, Yume listened as Yreth said, “While I’m sure you already know that our family is an ancient one, I don’t think I’ve ever told you about a sacred civilization that existed hundreds of thousands of years ago… It was known as the great civilization of antiquity!”

“Back then, ancient training sects were aplenty, so there were many who were able to train themselves to achieve spiritual enlightenment. With that in mind, plenty of great and powerful warriors were born, and they were capable of near-inhuman feats such as breaking mountains apart, working miracles, and even controlling the five elements! They truly were omnipotent beings!”

“However, among all of them, there was one person who trained himself to the point where not only did he achieve spiritual enlightenment, but he was also able to become immortal! From the day he managed to achieve immortality, he gained the ability to live both in heaven and on earth without needing to reincarnate!”

Yume found her eyes widening even more now, finding everything that her grandmother said to be both weird and mysterious…

“Even so, the brilliance of the great civilization of antiquity was just like a meteor. In other words, though it was both bright and dazzling, it was short-lived, and it didn’t go out slowly either. The entire civilization simply disappeared completely without a trace one night!”

Hearing that, Yume couldn’t help but ask, “But… If the great civilization of antiquity truly did exist—and the people back then were as powerful as you described—how could they have just disappeared or died out overnight, grandma?”

“It was due to the holy spirits!”
