Only then did he suddenly realize that he had just been tricked by this kid.

Looking at the kid's confident and composed demeanor, he had assumed that the kid really possessed some secret information.

"Good lad,"

He sighed, stirred his coffee, and said with a sigh, "I'm increasingly wanting you to join us."

Then he looked at He Ao with interest, "So how were you sure I would come here today? Was it just a guess?"

"Not entirely,"

He looked back at the window behind him.

"Standing by the window in this room, you can see the 'trading location' you've chosen, can't you? Just look at a holographic projection and you'll know everything."

"You chose that position because you wanted to monitor the transaction process, so you could get there immediately if anything went wrong, right?"

"and,"

He Ao turned around and looked at the old man in front of him.

“That wooden plaque is very important to you, isn’t it? You don’t trust your so-called ‘church companions,’ so you chose this spot to come here and see for yourself whether the wooden plaque might have been ‘lost’ in this room.”

His gaze remained calmly fixed on the old man before him, on the old man's attire as a wilderness wanderer, and on the fervent 'eagerness' deep within his orange-glowing eyes.

"Now, I'm sitting right in front of you. Is your 'eagerness' to pull me into the church the same as when you sold the wooden sign to my father in the wilderness?"

His voice was calm and slow, emphasizing each word: "What you crave is not 'talented individuals' who can help you revitalize the church, but 'pawns' who can help you achieve your goals."

"My child, your keenness and intelligence have amazed me,"

The old man lowered his head and blew away the steam from his coffee cup.

"To be honest, I didn't expect you to be so perfectly 'fitting' with the Hidden Observer talent sequence, and to survive the simple and brutal inheritance from the ancient wizards."

"If you were born during the Great Cataclysm, you might have become the most powerful wizard."

He brought the coffee cup to his lips and took a slow sip. "But sometimes, it's better to be a little oblivious. At least an oblivious person is happy until they die."

"So what do you want to do with this 'Hidden Observer' talent sequence?"

He Ao held his coffee, gazing into the old man's light brown pupils, which were covered in an orange glow. "Or rather, what do you want the 'Truth Monster,' which is extremely sensitive to truth and was created due to the failure of the Hidden Observer's talent sequence fusion, to help you find?"

The old man slowly finished his coffee, then placed the empty cup on the table. He looked at He Ao and asked with a smile,

Do you know about the Eternal Divine Kingdom?

Chapter 805 The Divine Kingdom on Earth (Long Chapter, Requesting Monthly Tickets)

"Is what you're looking for using the Truth Monster created by the 'Hidden Observer' related to the Eternal Kingdom?"

He Ao held the coffee cup and gazed at the old man in front of him.

At that moment, he understood something.

"I think you've heard of the Tantric teachings about the 'Eternal Kingdom,' which they believe is an afterlife where believers of eternal light go, a perfect realm created by eternal light, free from hunger and suffering."

The old man smiled slowly and said, "They preach that as long as one believes in the eternal light, one can enter the eternal kingdom of God after death, which is one of the reasons why their missionary ability is so strong."

His tone was calm, without the anger that He had shown when other members of the Old Church spoke of 'heresy' in the past.

"sound,"

He Ao slowly said, "Does the Old Church have a different view on this 'Eternal Kingdom'?"

"A very insightful question,"

The old man leaned back on the sofa, pondering as he spoke.

Before the emergence of Tantric Buddhism, the concept of "Eternal Kingdom" was not a concept of a kingdom after death, but rather a concept of an "end kingdom".

"Since the beginning of the Great Cataclysm, all believers in the Eternal Light have unanimously believed that the existence of the entire world is irrational and that one day the universe will inevitably face its end."

"At that time, the Eternal Light will restart the entire universe, establishing a completely new, orderly universe, which will also be the 'Eternal Kingdom' belonging to the Eternal Light."

"All believers in the eternal light who have died will be resurrected in this kingdom, becoming the first life in the new universe, and gaining eternal years and power."

“A doctrine that sounds very appealing,”

Heo took a sip of coffee. "But the resurrection after the end is far less appealing than the immediate 'resurrection' in the eternal kingdom of God after death."

"yes,"

The old man smiled and looked at He Ao. “In a sense, the ‘Eternal Kingdom’ doctrine of Tantric Buddhism is actually a variation and extension of the original ‘Eternal Kingdom’ doctrine, making the ‘Eternal Kingdom’ more relevant to ordinary people’s lives, making it easier for them to understand the doctrine, and making them more willing to accept the ‘guidance’ of the eternal light.”

"

He Ao put down his coffee cup and looked at the old man as well. "You are not averse to the doctrines of the Eternal Tantric School."

"The gods have already made their choice,"

The old man's gaze was calm. "And we servants can only follow in His footsteps."

He Ao looked at the calm and gentle old man in front of him.

As the 'leader' of the old church, the old man knew exactly what had happened.

The fact that the Eternal Secret Sect's heretical ideas did not result in divine punishment, but instead allowed them to still use the blessing of the Eternal Light, in a sense, also illustrates a certain attitude of the Eternal Light.

Whether the Eternal Light disregards these 'believers' interpretations of the Eternal Kingdom or prefers the Eternal Secret Cult's version of the 'Eternal Kingdom,' the final result is obvious:

Without the coercive intervention of a deity, the potential for development of Tantric Buddhism, with its new version of doctrine, is far greater than that of the old religions.

It was only a matter of time before the old religion was destroyed and swallowed up by the esoteric religion.

The old man in front of me

People are well aware of this and have long seen it, so what he is arguing about now is not a matter of doctrine at all.

"What you seek is power in the future 'Eternal Church'?"

He Ao looked at the old man's expressionless face. "You don't care about the so-called struggle between the old religion and the esoteric religion. You just want to continue to be the leader of the new sect that will be born in the future?"

"A servant of the great and eternal light."

The old man corrected him softly.

God only needs loyal servants; who that servant is sometimes not important.

He Ao's thoughts returned completely. He released his grip on the coffee cup, looked at the old man, and calmly said,

"You want to use the Hidden Observers to pursue the so-called 'Eternal Kingdom' of Tantric Buddhism? But even with the Hidden Observers' ability to seek the truth, they cannot find the 'Eternal Kingdom' that exists only in doctrine,"

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Unless, this 'divine kingdom' truly exists, and is located near Winter City."

The image of the light he had seen on his way back to Winter City, a light that seemed to conceal all sorts of beautiful scenery and delicious food, flashed through his mind. After he noticed that light, it seemed to hide itself away.

The light seemed to carry some kind of intense divine pollution, but it lacked the terrifying oppressive feeling one would expect from a deity.

It was not an extension of the true gods, but rather a high-level object created using the power of the gods.

He looked up at the old man. "So the Eternal Secret Sect is using some method to 'create' an 'Eternal Divine Kingdom' that didn't originally exist, according to its doctrines?"

The purpose of everything this old cult 'leader' is now very clear: he wants to find the 'artificial divine kingdom' hidden by the Eternal Secret Cult, then control that divine kingdom, and in turn control the entire Eternal Secret Cult.

At this moment, the old man, upon hearing He Ao's guess, looked at He Ao with surprise and smiled, "Little guy, you are really smart."

He reached out and placed the ceramic spoon, which was on the saucer, into the cup.

"Since you've already guessed this, you should know what I want to do. If you're willing to cooperate with me and help me find the 'divine kingdom' of Tantric Buddhism, then I can find a way to preserve your soul and let you enjoy eternal life in the divine kingdom."

Under normal circumstances, even the 'hidden observer' would not be able to find the 'eternal divine kingdom' hidden deep within the world through the chaotic and distorted patterns.

There is only one way to do this: fully accept the call of truth and become a monster that distorts truth.

Therefore, the old man's 'promise' was to preserve Ho's soul in the eternal kingdom of God, not a 'reward' in the mortal realm.

“A suggestion that sounds really good,”

He Ao downed his coffee in one gulp and, like the old man, placed the cup on the table. “It seems that my father is very compatible with the ‘Hidden Observer’.”

"certainly,"

Seemingly sensing He Ao's 'intention,' the old man smiled and said, 'Your father is one of the people I've ever met with the highest compatibility with the 'Hidden Cards.' If it were him, he should be able to become the most perceptive monster of truth.'

His gaze swept over He Ao, a fleeting orange glint in his eyes.

"

However, I truly did not expect that you could completely control the power of the Hidden Observer and retain your sanity. You must have been born with an extremely powerful soul, and your constitution may even be more special than your father's.”

At this point, he added with a hint of regret, "However, this rationality has also affected your sensitivity to the truth."

"Was it actually Locke who discovered my father's special physical condition?"

He Ao's voice maintained a certain calm and steady quality.

"He gave you his discovery report, so you seized the opportunity when my father left Winter City to 'sell' the 'Hidden Card' to him?"

"After that, you learned through Lockwell that the Eternal Cult was trying to control the Security Federation, and then you had Lockwell put Kate in charge of this incident, trying to use the Eternal Cult to force my father to merge with the Hidden Card?"

Based on Ilo's experience, it is highly likely that when someone is injured and on the verge of death, some kind of 'inheritance' within the Hidden Card will be activated, forcibly fusing the Hidden Observer talent sequence within with the wearer.

Therefore, in a certain sense, this wooden plaque can indeed 'protect peace'.

At this point, He Ao took a deep breath.

“If my father is driven to the point of family ruin and death by the Eternal Cult, and you and the Eternal Old Cult reappear as ‘saviors,’ you can completely control him and make him willingly become your ‘truth monster.’”

"However, to your surprise, even in the end, my father did not become the Truth Monster as you expected, and the Eternal Cult took away my parents' remains even faster."

"That's why you arranged for someone else to search for my father's remains and try to bring back the 'Hidden Card' to carry out the next step of your plan."

“Your father is indeed an ‘interesting’ person,”

The old man looked at He Ao, his fingers resting on the table, a faint golden light tracing across his fingertips. He sighed softly.

"Until I saw you, I was actually wondering why, given his affinity, he couldn't merge with the Hidden Cards."

"Now it seems that your father should have given you the Secret Card back then, which 'saved' your life."

"To be honest, given his affability, the pain he would have to endure to willingly hand over the Secret Card would probably be like cutting off his own limbs."

"It is indeed beyond my expectations that an ordinary person with no extraordinary abilities could do such a thing."
