Alan looked at the fat fetus, which appeared from nowhere and was trapped by Jacob. It was like an oriental version of Cupid.
He was stunned.
"Mr. Reyes, what is this?"
He was also curious.
The fat fetus was delicate and cute. More importantly, it gave out a strong sense of nourishing mana.
In fact, it looked like being made of nourishing mana.
Having reached an agreement with the fat fetus, Jacob put it into the Chaos Pearl.
Jacob had tried to put living creatures into the Chaos Pearl, but it didn't work. Only lifeless things could be placed in the Chaos Pearl.
The fat fetus was not really a living creature.
It was a kind of a spirit body.
And nothing happened after it was put into the Chaos Pearl.
Inside the Chaos Pearl, there was a lifeless chaos world. Jacob was wondering if such a spirit body as was born after absorbing pure nourishing mana from the earth and heaven would bring about any changes to the world.
The elixirs and precious medicine from Alan had played a key role in getting the fat fetus out.
Hence, hearing Alan's question, Jacob didn't hide anything, "The fat fetus is a spirit body. It absorbed the nourishing mana from the earth and heaven and was born from the spirit spring."
'Spirit body?'
Alan might have an answer, but hearing Jacob's words, he was still shocked.
He had only read about this kind of spirit body, which was born with the nourishing mana from the earth and heaven, in ancient books.
But today, he saw one in the real world.
'Jacob knew how to capture a spirit body?'
'Who was he?"
Alan was more puzzled.
He felt lucky that he didn't leave. He could feel that Jacob treated him as a real friend after he took out his precious medicine to help Jacob.
Jacob had been polite to him, but it was only because he was polite to Jacob, too.
"Mr. Dale, what happened today is between you and me. I hope you can keep the secret!"
Jacob said.
Spirit fetuses were rare even in the whole universe.
If this secret was spread out, Jacob would be in trouble.
He was not afraid of anyone including those who had reached the Divinity Phase. He could kill them all.
However, it was trouble after all. Even if no one came to steal the fetus when first hearing it, they might intend to do so someday.
Jacob was strong enough. He was reaching the late-stage Incarnation Phase.
However, as his strength was recovered, he sensed that there was something on the Earth that even he would feel terrified of it.
Jacob couldn't tell where this feeling came from.
But he knew that he wasn't invincible on the Earth until he stepped into the Divine Sea Realm.
He wouldn't be injured by ordinary bullets, bombs, etc., but he would be a dead man when facing nuclear weapons.
"I, Alan Dale, swear that I will never tell anyone about what happened today. If I do, I will never reach the Divinity Phase!"
Alan was decisive.
He went on to swear an oath.
It was the most solemn oath for geniuses like them who were expected to reach the Divinity Phase.
Jacob smiled and said, "You don't need to do that."
He began thinking highly of Alan.
"If Mr. Dale needs anything in the future, just tell me. I will help you whenever I can!"
Everyone knew that the current Emperor of the Dark Realm would take vengeance on anybody that had done something bad to him.
Also, Jacob was a man who discriminated between kindness and hatred. Regardless of the purpose, Alan had helped him today, and he would twice return the favor.
"It's my honor to get Mr. Reyes’ promise!" Alan laughed.
Then, he said, "Mr. Reyes, the Triangle Region is not a place to stay for long. Shall we return to China together?"
Jacob did not refuse.
He could ask Alan about the secluded families.
The ten great families in the capital city didn't know much about them.
The information they could provide for Jacob was limited.
Therefore, Jacob knew little about the secluded families.
Then, Jacob and Alan left the spirit spring cave together.
When they stood outside the cave, the last thing Alan wanted to see happened.
