Chapter 237: An Unattainable Wish

For Donald, this opportunity seemed dangerous, yet it had a high chance of success—after all, he had a high-level device to back him up.
According to that bottom-dwelling demon fish, there appeared to be a dead end between the Storm Sea and that new continent realm, but there was also a passage through it.
The original deep-sea giant had arrived in the main world through that very passage.
This passage was located in a violent storm zone where the Storm Sea met the Falling Star Sea. Going there under normal circumstances would be suicide even for a semi-divine powerhouse, as the intense spatial storms were beyond the capacity of even the strongest creatures in the main world to withstand.
However, once every year, during the high tides caused by the Silver Moon being closest to the main world, the area was affected by tidal forces, creating a period of reduced storm intensity. Over these three days, the spatial storms would slightly shift upward, forming a safe zone about a hundred feet in diameter and hundreds of kilometers long beneath the sea surface, leading directly to the seas of another overlapping realm.
Otherwise, in the spatial storms resulting from the fusion of the two worlds, even hiding at the bottom of the sea would not save one from destruction.
This safe passage was not stable either; it could change at any time due to external forces. Stepping just an inch outside the passage could result in being instantly reduced to dust by the fierce storms caused by spatial debris. Yet within its bounds, it was as safe as ordinary sea areas. As long as one could cross the long passage within the time limit without any accidents, even an ordinary person could use it to reach the other world. Of course, it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to reach this deep-sea location at the junction of the two seas—many would likely perish at the hands of sea beasts long before reaching it.
This passage was the result of thousands of years of observation and experimentation by the deep-sea giant after he arrived in the main world. Without personally trying it, no one could detect the passage even if it were visible, as everything in sight were terrifying spatial debris. Aside from that deep-sea giant—whose intelligence was limited but strength was immense, along with his infinitely regenerative tentacles—no one would dare to explore it.
Donald had the Book of Truth simulate that environment and concluded that, with his combined strength as a Golden Archmage and Demon Hunter, along with his divine shield as a backup, he had an 80% chance of successfully crossing the safe passage and reaching the realm where the deep-sea giant originated from.

There’s still half a month left until the start of the annual high tides. Calculating from that date, it has been exactly two years since he arrived in this world. His parents passed away early in his past life, and he has few remaining relatives with whom he hasn’t been in touch for a long time, so he doesn’t have many ties. Yet, after all, it is the world where he was born—the bustling city filled with humans with yellow skin and black eyes—everything about it feels so familiar to him. Even his small apartment of just dozens of square meters and the old computer he bought years ago are deeply missed. Now, he longs to return to that familiar world at once. Even if he can’t return to his original world, it would be good to get some news!

But then he thought of his relatives and friends in this world—people he couldn’t bear to leave behind. Donald became even more determined to grow stronger.

According to the information in the Book of Truth, in his own world, the Supreme God, who is also the main god of this world, can traverse the river of time and space to reach any place in the multiverse. Those who haven’t reached that level, even powerful higher gods, cannot exist independently outside their own divine kingdoms and the believers of their main world. Once they enter the endless tunnel of time and space, they will get lost in the river of time and space, with an unknown fate.

“If I can become as powerful as the Supreme God, then whether I return to Earth or bring my teacher, Catherine, and others here to live, I can choose as I wish!”

With this thought in mind, Donald’s desire to grow stronger had never been so strong!

When he first arrived in this world, he was too weak to even compare to an ordinary farmer, so he didn’t dare to think about such things. He only wanted to gain some strength and status to live a comfortable life as a noble. But now, a path with a success rate of one in a billion has appeared before him, though it’s not entirely impossible. Donald decided to take this path and strive for his goal, so as not to regret it in the future.

With this in mind, Donald gathered all his trusted followers in his domain and announced his plan to go on a journey of experience.

“This time, I don’t plan to go too far. I’ll return to the domain in either a year or two to three years. So during this time, I leave the affairs of the domain in your hands!” The old mage Messele nodded. “It’s good to go out and gain experience. Only by going through hardships can one truly strengthen their abilities. I was able to reach the Silver rank by going to the central continent. The domain is now on track, with a mage tower in place. Even ordinary Gold-rank strongmen won’t come here to waste their time. Who knows? By the time Donald returns, he might already be a legendary figure!”

Since learning that his only disciple possessed divine bloodline, the old mage knew he was no longer confined to the path of an ordinary mage, so he had high expectations for him.
Katherine asked anxiously, filled with reluctance, “Donald, where are you going? Is it dangerous?”
Donald gave her a reassuring smile.
“Don’t worry. This time I’m not going alone. Besides Uther, I plan to take two Golden Masters with me. Although the place is dangerous, the rewards are enormous. If everything goes well, reaching the legendary realm mentioned by the master shouldn’t be a problem!”
Everyone present was deeply shocked. In their eyes, legendary masters were mythical beings—only ancient heroes in history or those legendary creatures could possess such strength, like the Bronze Dragon King of Nozdormu.
To them, Golden Masters were already unbeatable beings beyond reach. It was astonishing that Donald, this young lord, had silently become a Golden Master and now sought even higher heights. They were so stunned they felt numb.
“As for the master and Kelthas, you stay in the realm. There’s Nozdormu in Emerald Dream, and there’s also a mage tower in Dalaran. I can basically rest easy!”
“Have you decided on the two candidates for Golden Masters you mentioned?”
“Actually, it should be three. I just realized—we also have a Golden Sword Saint in our realm, right?”
Hearing Donald’s words, Maelis felt much more at ease. He could roughly guess the identities of the other two Golden Masters.
After informing the people of the realm, Donald sent someone to pilot a airship, carrying his letters to invite the other two Golden Masters to Dalaran for a meeting.
Knowing he was about to embark on a long journey, Donald comforted the worried Katherine that very night until noon the next day, when the guests arrived and the countess finally had the strength to get up.
The three guests gathered in the reception room of the lord’s manor. Two of them were the only two Sword Saint masters publicly recognized—Marquis Ansel, the Storm Sword Saint, and Abel, the Female Sword Saint.
Among the Golden Masters Donald knew, these two were his closest friends, which was why he thought of them first. As for the third best Golden Master, it was Calair, the Demon Sword, leader of the Blood Battle Mercenary Group, who had come to Dalaran from the underground world.

The reason for choosing these three instead of the Agricultural Goddess Church, which could offer greater strength, was that although these three were strong, the gap between them and himself wasn’t that large. Storm Sword Saint Vincent and Female Sword Saint Abel even had a good relationship with him. As for Sword Sharper Carlisle, after Donald ordered accommodations to be arranged for him and his companions, this Golden Sword Saint remained inactive, seemingly enjoying life in the surface world, and could occasionally be seen strolling around the streets like an ordinary person. Donald didn’t know much about him, but he highly valued his bold and unrestrained personality. Since they had fought side by side against foes like the Queen of Hua Shu’s avatar, he was also included in their group. “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting!” Donald said with a smile to the three Golden Powerhouses after appearing. His unhidden aura as a Golden Powerhouse shocked Marquis Ansel greatly; the other two had already seen Donald after his promotion and were already astonished. Only Marquis Ansel, though he had always been aware of Donald’s situation, was unaware of this news. At first sight, he was deeply shocked that Donald had risen to the rank of Golden Powerhouse in just two years.
