It looked like the grotto was pondering Jin Rou's words. The emperor and Athena didn't dare to breathe loudly. This was a conversation between top beings and they had no place to interfere here.

After a long issue of silence, the grotto finally spoke, "Tell me child, you're pursuing greater power while you already have enough to rule and dominate the world and the realms. Why do you want to do this?"

"Because I want to slay an existence that has been threatening Fate World since the start of time. You know that existence for sure." Jin Rou answered. He didn't lie and was truly aiming to take that monster's life.

"I see. It makes sense now." The grotto was enlightened, "So it was like God King's main aim, then. Indeed, with your power level right now, you'll just be asking for death if you go there."

The grotto knew a thing or two about the monster. As a matter of fact, that monster visited it for a certain reason and almost broke into a fight. If the fight truly ensued, the grotto would have been gone now and became history that wouldn't be recorded in the official annals of this world.

So it was true. Jin Rou thought. He was right, being a dual law wasn't still enough to kill that monster. He might be able to seal it, but that's just it. The monster would be alive even after so many years of being sealed. It could come back anytime and hunt the world down to its last entity.

"However, child, I must warn you that you should think again of merging another legacy with you. The two laws have already taken a toll on your body during the merging process, you're already very lucky that you have succeeded. Don't think that luck can come by twice in a row no matter how lucky or provident you are." The grotto gave a sincere warning and an advice at the same time. After all, not even God King would dare do this.

"I understand your concern. However, I must do this." Jin Rou shook his head, "I heard that the seal is weakening and anytime from now, that monster will be freed and it can wreak havoc in this world. Since my late master failed to kill it, I will do it in his stead."

"Child, it seems I still have underestimated you." A soft chuckle could be heard from the grotto, "Then tell me, how sure are you to successfully merge the third legacy with you? Take note, God King's legacy is as strong as your Master Feng Lin. And since their main elements are different, the two legacies might fight it out."

What the grotto said was true. Jin Rou's plan to merge the third legacy was very dangerous and he might be killed during the process. Feng Lin's grand dao was about flames while God King's grand dao was about Buddhist light. There was an immense contradiction between the two and it would be difficult to merge them unlike with Beline's legacy.

"Indeed, it is very dangerous. However, remember that I have all the important treasures God King has which he accumulated in his lifetime. And that includes a certain treasure which would save me from an extreme danger." Jin Rou smiled.

God King was a very cautious person. He wouldn't do something that might endanger his life during a process to gain power. Of course, he would set up some insurances and safety nets in case things went awry, and out of his expectations.

The grotto was silenced for a while and suddenly laughed, "Boy, I like you. You might be young but you already know how to scheme through. In the grand scheme of things, your brain is what the world needs to persevere."

It paused for a moment and continued, "Very well, since I have taken a liking to you, I will give you permission to take God King brat's legacy. And not just that, I can also give you a vital information regarding the Heavenly World Tree, which might help you during your merging process."

The emperor widened his eyes in shock when he heard this. Jin Rou was just given a blissful opportunity of a lifetime! He knew very well the abilities of the Heavenly World Tree and indeed, it might help Jin Rou increase his chances of succeeding!

This grotto was surely generous.

"Then I'll gladly take it." Jin Rou smiled, "If I don't, I might become a sinner and be cursed for the rest of my life."

"Haha, that's true!" the grotto laughed. Everyone was seeking for the Heavenly World Tree due its outstanding capabilities. It could heal any type of wounds and even help a person take a step forward towards cultivation. However, the tree only appeared once in a very long while. Perhaps once in every one million years only.

There were several records of where it appeared and it became a tourist spot and place for cultivators to seek guidance.

So how could Jin Rou turn this down? It was the Heavenly World Tree they were talking about!

"Alright, since you accepted it, I will impart to you the information where the Heavenly World Tree will appear." The grotto said. Then, a small light entered Jin Rou's mind which made the latter restless for a second, "Now that you have received it, here is the God King's blood bottle. It contains his legacy, dao laws, and grand dao."

A small bottle floated from the grotto and it slowly approached Jin Rou. The blood in it was darker red and it was emitting Buddhist light. If a monk took this legacy, they had a low chance of becoming a Buddha himself.

Jin Rou accepted the bottle and looked at the grotto. He then bowed sincerely and said, "Pardon my arrogance a while ago, and thank you for this."

"No need to mention it. I'm the one who pushed you to almost half my territory. So it's nothing." The grotto grumbled.. If the grotto didn't show up during that time, it was sure that Jin Rou would destroy the place. Sigh, what a hateful guy!
