"Death?"

Even in the Mysterious Side, this word still holds immense deterrent power.

The spectators all grew serious.

They all looked towards Klyas solemnly, as the Half-Sheepman girl quickly provided the real reason, hugging Jason anxiously, saying: "This is a prophecy from Grandpa Charley, he said Brother Jason is about to encounter Misfortune, the only way to save him is to return to the Secret Realm."

"Grandpa Charley is currently the most powerful Divination Master in our Tilosi Clan, but he is a bit eccentric at times, sometimes immensely wise and sometimes a bit mentally disordered, his prophecies are hard to distinguish between true and false."

"Especially since Grandpa Charley's favorite junior is Brother Jason, it might be just like before, tricking him to come back to keep him company."

"But auntie's orders have come down, Brother Jason, you better not resist, go back first and keep auntie company, I will also come back to see you in a few days."

Klyas's reasoning was undoubtedly very sufficient.

On one side, Rafael directly said: "Jason, since it is a prophecy from the respected Charley, it deserves attention, you should head back to the Tilos Secret Realm for now, the work pertaining to you in the Ancient Castle Bureau can be temporarily handed over to another agent."

"Agreed!"

"Seconded!"

Old Coulson and Jennifer successively concurred.

Tang Qi, Savoy, and Courtney, those who do not belong to the Ancient Castle Bureau, also nodded in agreement.

"It seems I don't have much of a choice, even though now is the most fun time, one exciting event after another, I really don't want to go back."

Jason lamented a few times, then redirected the topic towards the current big event being discussed by nearly all the Transcendents in the bar.

A few people directly looked towards Tang Qi and Rafael.

Clearly, among them, those two were the ones most knowledgeable about the information.

Indeed, this was the case.

Because Rafael is a well-known scholar of the Federation, slightly less influential than "Mrs. Loring", yet he also knew many secrets by virtue of being directly positioned within the official Camp.

As for Tang Qi, he had experienced it firsthand.

Resigned, the two picked some unimportant information and shared as secret gossip to satisfy everyone's curiosity.

The gathering ended swiftly.

Although Jason wanted to use an excuse for "one last blowout", everyone worried and sent him directly back.

The prophecy indeed sounded quite serious.

However, given the "respected Charley's" history and considering it was just a vacation for some time, people didn't pay much attention; most Transcendents had extended lifespans, and a few months passed by in a blink.

When Tang Qi returned to the Library Tower, it was still deep night.

Without further disturbances, he directly entered the Meditation Room, adjusted his State, and entered another highly risky "meditation."

Hu!

When the Book of Nothing flipped, grains of spores spilled out and fluttering tentacles were released, an unimaginable barrier appeared inside the Meditation Room, guarding outside were the Night Beast and Vilnas Fairy, both of which seemed to sense the horrifying aura and tremor in their bodies, the urge to flee dominating their minds.

This wasn't the first time, but they still needed time to adapt.

However, Gluttony took the opportunity to come before them, showing off its "fearlessness."

Inside the room, Tang Qi's mind was wrapped by the Divine Tentacles, and after a "boom", he found himself in a familiar world.

Once again, he was falling.

Below was a vast and boundless land, and that familiar, terrifying Mist giant.

It was still like a baby, asleep.

What was different was that its snoring was even more terrifying.

Tang Qi proficiently entered the rhythm of "bubble stepping," but his concentration was intense; the originally dreamlike and peaceful world began to exhibit thunder, lightning, and storms—these noisy and destructive Heavenly Disasters posed considerable threats to Tang Qi.

But clearly, it was still not enough to wake up the giant, as these Heavenly Disasters were merely phenomena stemming from the giant's snores.

"Compared to the last bubble stepping game, this seems to have leveled up in difficulty; perhaps the reward after clearing it will be greater too?"

"Pop."

As this thought emerged in his heart, the first bubble under his feet burst, a giant Monster with a thick head and many tentacles darted out, instantly spraying a large blob of black ink at Tang Qi and then its tentacles wrapped around him.

...

November 10th, fourth floor Meditation Room of the Library Tower.

Tang Qi once again awakened from meditation, directly looking at the Book of Nothing in front of him, containing Chaos Spores and Pure Divinity, two slightly smaller, terribly polluted mushrooms slowly withered, and the purified Divine Power released, merging into the Book of Nothing.

"Indeed, I acquired more Divinity than last time, not wasting the dangers I've gone through."

As the thought passed, the images of his adventures in the "giant bubble world" during meditation popped into Tang Qi's mind.

A dangerous, terrifying bubble stepping game!

Compared to his initial entry into this world, not only did he have to withstand attacks from more real, cunning Monsters, but he also had to be wary of unexpected Heavenly Disasters.

Although not yet reaching a perilously dangerous level, it indeed hid the risk of failure.

"If the next meditation is still in this world, I'm afraid that the giant won't just be snorting and blowing bubbles anymore, he might start sleep talking; if the difficulty continues to increase, he may start dream hitting, have bad sleep posture, or even sleepwalk... In any case, once he shows signs of awakening, immediately eliminate him from the 'extraction' targets."
