Chapter 1405 The Unstoppable Destiny

The golden figure gleamed as it appeared. It was none other than the Holy Lord.

"Well, have you accomplished your task? Can you now return to the Star Divine Race and inherit the
rest of my power to become a true Holy Lord?" The golden figure didn't waste a second before he
spoke. His voice sounded firm, which reflected on the serious look on his face.

"Why the hurry? Subduing all the nine calamity beasts and sealing them in the Divine Land took me a
long time and great effort. I would appreciate it if you could allow me to take some rest first. Besides, it
hasn't been long since you came back to life. If you pass your power on to me so soon, you might die
again before you know it. Anyway, I've promised you that I would take over your position, remember? I
have even inherited some of your power. Do you really still have doubts that I'd run away?" Rocky
replied, his brows pushed into a frown.

He heaved a sigh after realizing he had already exhausted his strength after his battle with Wraith King
Sebastian's soul. His body felt weak and feeble. After he had through everything in the world, all he
wanted was some peace and serenity for the rest of his life. All that, however, had been interrupted by
something he did not expect. Not long ago, the calamity beasts had come back to reality and started
harming living creatures in the world.

In order to save the Wild Spirit Land one more time and protect everything he cherished there, Rocky
had reached an agreement with the Holy Lord—eventually, he had to become his successor. The test
Rocky faced to succeed him enabled him to inherit a part of the power of the Holy Lord so as to control
the Divine Spiritual Source again.

Through his inherited power and the Divine Spiritual Source, it came easy for him to suppress and
bring the nine calamity beasts that aggressed the entire Wild Spirit Land into the Divine Land and seal
them there. It was all thanks to his effort that the Wild Spirit Land could escape from quite a tragic
disaster yet again.



After saving them, Rocky was supposed to return to the Star Divine Race to inherit the divine power
from the Holy Lord. It was just as they had agreed on, so he reckoned there were no other options left
for him back then but to agree on it. However, now that the Wild Spirit Land was safe and free from the
calamity beasts, his relief caused irresolution in his mind. Suddenly, he felt unwilling to go back to the
Star Divine Race. To be more exact, it was the last thing he wanted. After all, once he became an
actual Holy Lord, he would need to treat everything and everyone in the world as mere an outsider—
including his beloved Wild Spirit Land. What seemed worse for him was the fact that under no
circumstances could he reunite with Marcia, Isis and other women.

Needless to say, he was having strong urges of entertaining his ambivalence. He decided to play the
waiting game, sincerely hoping he could delay going back with the Holy Lord.

"Listen. I made a big mistake in the past and had long lost the qualifications I need to be the Holy Lord.
I hope you understand. I just want to pass down the position as soon as possible so I can finally be
reincarnated to atone for my sins in my next life," the Holy Lord said. His soft voice sounded like a long
and heavy sigh.

"Oh, come on. Don't feel so despondent. You're a deity! Gather your courage and snap out of it. In less
than no time, I'm sure you'll recover and even regain your passion and composure. How about I return
the strength to you so you can continue being the Holy Lord? I'll just stay in the Divine Land. If one day
you get tired of being the Holy Lord, I will take over your position then." Rocky immediately grabbed the
opportunity to draw up a plan in his favor.

"Humph. I know you're trying to coax me. It's quite obvious that you just don't want to take my place
since you still have some attachment to the Wild Spirit Land..." The Holy Lord trailed off as he looked
away from Rocky. He had already seen through Rocky.

"Well, I'm not saying I'm not going to do it. It's just that they have now become so vulnerable that the
tiniest attacks could ruin them altogether. If I assume the responsibility as a Holy Lord now, there's



going to be an absolute reason for me to go out of my way and help the Wild Spirit Land if something
happens to them. I just can't do it right now. I can only become the Holy Lord when they've finally
regained their vitality," Rocky replied and shrugged.

"Young man, I told you that every land has its fate. The Wild Spirit Land will soon suffer another
catastrophe as fate has decided. No matter what you do to save it this time, it cannot escape the fate of
destruction in the end." The Holy Lord looked very solemn, and his voice was void of amusement when
he spoke.

Hearing what the Holy Lord said, Rocky fell out of sorts. "Another catastrophe? Soon? It's not going to
happen at least for another year, right? Or maybe several years after that?"

"Let me ask you this then. Do you think the calamity beasts suddenly reappeared for no reason? Call to
mind some recent incidences. Since the Divine Spiritual Source was gathered, you would think that the
calamity beasts would disappear. However, they didn't. Instead, they willfully reemerged. They were
taking advantage of the fact that the Wild Spirit Land had begun to collapse. Despite the support of the
Divine Spiritual Source, however, it's no longer capable of maintaining the balance of the land. This
collapse is the consequence of this looming catastrophe," the Holy Lord explained in detail.

"Can't you at least tell me what kind of catastrophe it is?" It seemed to Rocky that the Holy Lord was
tantalizing him, so he frowned with dissatisfaction.

"I'm afraid I cannot do that. If you find out, I'm convinced that you'll have second thoughts and change
your mind once more," the Holy Lord said in response. He already knew Rocky very well.

"You might be forgetting that I've inherited some of your power. Even though you refuse to tell me, I still
have a way to know," Rocky threatened, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Fine. I will tell you, but you have to promise me that you will never interfere this time. You must not do
anything that may disturb the fate of the Wild Spirit Land." After a moment of hesitation, the Holy Lord



gave in to Rocky's intimidation.

"All right. Just tell me what's going to happen so that I could at least warn Marcia and the others to find
a solution for themselves," Rocky said as he finally compromised. He knew that if the Holy Lord didn't
tell him directly, he would waste a lot of time just to figure out the catastrophe that was bound to
happen. Thus, even if he discovered it by himself, it might be a little too late for the creatures of the
Wild Spirit Land. Therefore, he decided to let the Holy Lord tell him the information so he could
immediately come up with a plan to prevent it.

"You better keep your promise!" Upon saying that, the Holy Lord waved his hand in the air and another
light shadow was suddenly projected in front of Rocky that spread out like a mirror. Soon enough, a
huge and ominous gate-shaped building emerged in it.

"What the hell is that?" As soon as Rocky saw the mysterious building, he instantly had a bad feeling
as if his guts were telling him that it was going to bring devastating trouble. After all, this was not
supposed to appear on the Wild Spirit Land.

"This is the special gate that could connect two different worlds!" the Holy Lord replied briefly.

"Why would this gate start to show itself in the Wild Spirit Land? Don't tell me—" Rocky wasn't able to
finish his sentence as a dreadful thought struck him which was actually a possible answer to his
question.

"This gate is opened from the other world by force so that it could open from this side. There are
usually only two cases when the gate appears and is opened. One is that one world is about to
collapse and the people there have no other choice but to escape to the other one to survive. The other
one is that the creatures from one world opened the gate by force to invade the other," the Holy Lord
explained further.



"So, which is the case for the Wild Spirit Land now?" Rocky asked hesitantly, vaguely knowing the
answer already.

"You know that the Wild Spirit Land is already fated to perish. Even though you managed to stop the
calamity beasts, you can't stop its original destiny. Now, the Wild Spirit Land is to be invaded by the
alien land from the other side of the gate. So, to answer your question, both of the reasons are
happening right now," the Holy Lord said straightforwardly.

"What kind of creatures are there in that alien land? Since they possess the power to forcibly open a
gate like this, I can't begin to imagine how powerful they are!" Rocky exclaimed as he was overcome by
anxiety.
