Chapter 339 The Key To The Divine Sea
From the start, Jesse quietly listened to the conversation between Ethan and Asura Bloodhand, but the sweat on his forehead kept increasing.
"So what? Even if I can't use the Sun and Moon Beads to enhance my power, I still have to get them! Are you trying to make me give up by saying all this?" Asura Bloodhand asked.
To Ethan's surprise, Asura Bloodhand didn't seem to care whether he could use the Sun and Moon Beads and burst into laughter.
"You are so stubborn. If Francis finds out the Sun and Moon Beads are in your hands, what do you think he'll do? You don't want a master-level person hunting you down, right?" Ethan was helpless. He had to bring up Francis at this point!
Only when facing Asura Bloodhand directly did Ethan feel his unfathomable strength. At least for now, he had no chance of winning, not even escaping!
"Is Francis really your friend? No wonder both the Sun and Moon Beads ended up in your hands! Francis really trusts you to give you something so important! But didn't he tell you that besides enhancing your power, the Sun and Moon Beads have another use?" Asura Bloodhand sneered.
"Ethan, don't listen to his nonsense!" Hearing this, Jesse, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up to remind Ethan.
"Nonsense? Your reaction seems a bit much. You must be one of those trained by the Celestia Vale." Asura Bloodhand chuckled.
"Yes, I am indeed from Celestia Vale!" Jesse nodded slowly.
"No wonder you don't want me to reveal the other use of the Sun and Moon Beads. You people from Celestia Vale are always so hypocritical! Since you don't want me to say it, I will!" Asura Bloodhand's tone contained a hint of disdain and anger, clearly provoked by Jesse's identity.
"What are you talking about? What other use do the Sun and Moon Beads have?" Ethan noticed Jesse's agitated reaction and immediately understood the trickery. Evidently, both Celestia Vale and Francis had kept something from him regarding the Sun and Moon Beads!
"If you want to know, I'll tell you! Besides enhancing your power, the Sun and Moon Beads are also the key to opening the Divine Sea!" Asura Bloodhand laughed and revealed the so-called secret.
"Ethan, don't listen to him. The Divine Sea is just a legend; no one knows if it really exists! No one has ever seen it!" Jesse quickly reminded Ethan.
"Am I talking nonsense, or are you? The existence of the Divine Sea is undeniable, which is the only passage to the divine realm. The location to open the Divine Sea is at the top of Tiger Mount in the ZF Guild. Thousands of years ago, countless cultivators witnessed Celestial Master Taylor using the Sun and Moon Beads to open the gate to the Divine Sea. Whether it's true or not, you can verify it yourself!" Asura Bloodhand said indifferently.
Jesse's face turned sullen. He was unable to refute Asura Bloodhand's words!
"The reason you followed me here, besides worrying about the Sun and Moon Beads falling into his hands, is also because you were afraid I'd learn this secret from him, right?" Ethan squinted his eyes and questioned Jesse.
"I did it for your good. The Sun and Moon Beads are forbidden. Maybe now you can understand why I wanted to keep them for you!" Jesse knew it was impossible to deny it at this point, so he stopped arguing.
"I don't doubt you, but can you really guarantee that if the Sun and Moon Beads fall into the hands of Celestia Vale, they will truly keep them safe for me? If the Sun and Moon Beads are the key to opening the Divine Sea, even the most powerful figures in Celestia Vale would be tempted." Ethan sneered.
Jesse was speechless, clearly agreeing with Ethan's words.
"He can't and won't answer that question because the people of Celestia Vale are just a bunch of hypocrites. Do you really think they wouldn't have any ill intentions towards your Sun and Moon Beads?" Asura Bloodhand laughed wildly.
"I've actually suspected this for a long time because Francis told me that only the unique techniques of the ZF Guild can activate the Sun and Moon Beads. In other words, the only person who can use these two beads is the head of the ZF Guild, which is me! Ronald might not know this and fantasizes about gaining power from the Sun and Moon Beads, but there are definitely people in Celestia Vale who know the other use of these two beads!" Ethan sneered.
"I've said everything that needs to be said, and you know the secret now. So, are you going to hand over the beads?" Asura Bloodhand asked calmly.
"Do you think I would hand them over? If you want the Sun and Moon Beads, come and get them yourself!" Ethan shook his head without hesitation.
"Are you mocking me?" Asura Bloodhand was instantly furious!
"I said, if you have the ability, these two beads are yours. Do you dare to take them? It is the first time I've heard the beads are the key to opening the Divine Sea. If it's true, I don't believe Francis would watch you take them!" Ethan sneered.
He finally understood why no one from Celestia Vale dared to openly snatch the Sun and Moon Beads from him, whether in the capital or Novaria.
Phoenix and Francis were definitely keeping an eye on his movements, ready to intervene at any sign of trouble!
"You forced me to act. You're right; I do fear Francis, which is why I brought you to Silvermist Peak. Do you think Francis can save you in time after I make my move? Even if he is incredibly powerful, it would still take him a few minutes to cover hundreds of miles!" Asura Bloodhand said.
He laughed sinisterly, and then a large mass of demonic energy enveloped him, which surged and rushed towards Ethan.
Ethan's face changed instantly. He didn't expect this demon to be so fast, and the large mass of demonic energy almost completely covered his head, leaving him no place to hide!
