Chapter 261: Chapter261-The Shadow of the Myriad Races, Returning to the Third Floor of the Holy Grail
"Teacher, please speak," Jaeger replied respectfully.
The elder said in a deep voice, "The one who killed your junior brother is an existence who understands how to use the Law of Causality.
"After he killed Shilamo, the causal thread was quickly severed.
"That is why even I cannot use that layer of causality to pursue and kill him.
"This time, I can only have you personally go and hunt him down."
Hearing this, shock appeared on Jaeger’s face.
"Do you mean that person possesses the strength to control the Law of Causality?"
The Divine Race had extremely deep research into the level of causality.
As the most outstanding student of the elder before him, Jaeger naturally understood better than anyone just how heavy the causality of murder was.
Generally speaking, no matter who killed his junior brother Shilamo, they would definitely leave behind a causal trace.
And his teacher would be able to use that layer of causality to retaliate.
But now, his teacher had personally said that the causality had disappeared.
This could only prove one thing.
The other party’s control over causality had reached an extremely heaven-defying level.
After all, only someone truly skilled in controlling causality could so easily sever a causal thread.
The elder shook his head.
"That being said, although that person severed the causality, it also allowed me to start from the trajectory of fate and successfully detect his general location.
"However, this person’s fate trajectory is extremely complete. He does not seem like someone easy to deal with.
"Even though I can see his fate trajectory clearly, I still cannot determine his current exact strength.
"The only information I have for now is that he has most likely already reached the quasi-god realm.
"As for how he killed Shilamo back then, perhaps he used some higher-level method.
"Even I do not know how he did it."
After listening to the elder’s explanation, Jaeger laughed.
He had thought this person was extremely terrifying.
So it turned out he was merely quasi-god level.
With Jaeger’s current demigod-grade strength, wouldn’t he be able to crush the other party casually?
Whoosh!
A flash of white light appeared as the elder tossed a token in front of Jaeger.
Jaeger respectfully caught it.
"This is a Myriad Race Pass Permit. It will allow you to travel to the domain of any race," the elder said in a deep voice.
"However, I do not know the true name of the person who killed your junior brother.
"So I must trouble you to make a trip to the Beyondworld Trial Space. Perhaps you can find clues about the killer there."
Jaeger put away the token and nodded.
"Student understands. Rest assured, Teacher. This time, I will definitely kill the murderer and avenge Junior Brother."
The elder nodded in satisfaction.
"I believe in your strength. Once you return, I can arrange a new advancement path for you.
"When the time comes, if a Divine Tribulation appears, I can personally protect you.
"If you can successfully pass that tribulation, you should not be far from becoming a god."
Hearing this, Jaeger’s expression remained unchanged.
If there was one greatest dream of the Divine Race, it was undoubtedly becoming a god.
After all, the Divine Race had always been famous for its high godhood success rate.
Although Jaeger was confident in his own talent, becoming a god often required enduring many Divine Tribulations.
The danger of those Divine Tribulations was something even he did not dare claim he could safely overcome.
If he could obtain his teacher’s protection, then becoming a god would be almost certain.
With this thought, a confident look appeared on Jaeger’s face.
"Rest assured, Teacher. Leave this matter to me!"
As a powerhouse who had been invincible all the way to the demigod stage, he believed that dealing with John would not require much of his strength at all.
In the next instant, his figure disappeared from where he stood, swiftly heading toward the Beyondworld Trial Space.
...
At the same time, the powerhouses of the other myriad races were also communicating with one another through divine sense.
"Say it, then. When do we move against the human race? I want to flay that John alive and devour him."
"Do we still need to wait much longer? I estimate we’ll be able to act very soon!"
"That John probably only has quasi-god-level strength right now. His power is likely about to catch up to ours."
"What are you afraid of? The accumulated army of our myriad races is almost a hundred million strong. Every one of them is a powerhouse close to quasi-god or even demigod grade. Wouldn’t dealing with him be effortless?"
"Exactly. I really want to see how this so-called leader of humanity will deal with us when the time comes."
...
Human universe.
Inside Overlord City.

[Description]: A talent once possessed by a legend who relied on luck to attain godhood at the beginning of the universe. After becoming a god, he felt this talent was a shackle, stripped it from himself, and cast it into the boundless sea of stars, where it would wait for the next Chosen of Destiny to unlock it.
...
"Chosen of Destiny, huh? Forget it. I’ll just let fate take its course."
After reading the talent description, John sighed.
To him, this talent was only so-so.
After all, his current strength was already so powerful that he did not need to rely on luck to improve himself.
"Forget it. First, let me test my strength after breaking through Level 400."
With a thought, John entered the Holy Grail space in the next instant.
...
The third floor of the Holy Grail space.
John’s figure appeared here once again.
Last time, he had challenged a projection left behind by another parallel universe player here and successfully left his own projection in this place.
He had even changed the rules of this floor.
As John appeared here, the projection he had left behind instantly reacted.
The information panel of that projection immediately appeared before his eyes.
