"I have consulted many of the divine gods, but none of them could explain what was going on.
Over the years I've become terribly worried about Julian.
Austin, you are at a higher level and your strength has grown by now. I know you've also been wandering around the Sea of Chaos and beyond for many years, and have seen and heard things beyond most others' comprehension. There must be something you could do to help us find out what's wrong with Julian!"
Caroline choked back tears as she spoke in a quavering voice. The deep concern for her son was plastered all over her worried face.
"I am truly sorry, Caroline. You have been taking care of Julian on your own for so many years. I know how tiring and stressful that is.
This is all my fault. I don't deserve to be called Julian's father, or your husband.
Don't worry about a thing. I'll definitely find out what's wrong with Julian.
All things aside, I think Julian is doing fine overall. He certainly has some abilities that go beyond that of ordinary people.
He's never cultivated any skills, but he was born with a natural knack for the law of space.
Haven't you noticed that whenever he wants to hide himself away, even the ordinary genuine divine gods can't seem to find him?
My gut is telling me that Julian's body was in a good state.
So, again, don't worry about it,"
Austin said, reassuringly.
"That's a relief,"
said Caroline with a smile. She gave a satisfied sigh as she wiped her eyes.
Caroline knew that Austin was much stronger than her, and that his insight was also far superior.
Whatever Austin said made perfect sense as he was a highly credible man.
"I think so too.
Stay steadfast. I truly feel that although Julian is drowsy and will fall asleep for more than one hundred years every once in a while, his body is in perfect health.
Moreover, his body contained a large amount of chaotic energy and all kinds of profound laws. It seems that he was born with these qualities.
It's actually quite impressive, but also very strange,"
said Ivy and Sue.
The two of them were also divine gods now.
"Yes, we think so too."
The three mermaids nodded in agreement.
These past years, they'd helped Caroline take care of Julian. They, more than anyone, were familiar with his situation.
"By the way, I must point out that there's another strange thing about Julian. He can swallow a lot of divine pills freely without suffering any negative side effects.
Even I woul
The surprises just kept coming. Austin was pushed farther and farther into shock. This was unbelievably fantastic news!
Even luckier for him, it was his own son.
"The growth of the Ultimate Divine Embryo also had another special condition.
That was, before he turned ten years old, his one hundred years would already be equivalent to one year for other kids.
His time would only keep up with everyone else's once he was one hundred years old.
Hence, there's really no need to fret about your son at all.
Anyway, you can't do anything about it.
Just let him grow up on his own,"
advised the statue master.
"In fact, I thought your talent and aptitude was a pretty occurrence, but I had never expected that your son would turn out to be so much more talented than you are.
I'll have to think this over and consider taking him in as my disciple in the future,"
noted the statue master in a suddenly serious tone.
"Master, are you serious?"
Austin was speechless.
"Believe me, Austin. The Ultimate Divine Embryo is too precious and rare not to hone.
Well, you can always bring Julian over here so we can hang out more in the future,"
said the statue master.
"Alright, I'll try to bring him over more often."
Austin absently nodded. His mind was a mess after the extreme shock in his heart. He didn't know whether he should be happy or surprised about the situation.
His son was an Ultimate Divine Embryo?
Could his son really become a governing god without cultivating?
Did his son really have a fifty-fifty chance of becoming a god of chaos?
His statue master's words echoed on repeatedly in Austin's mind.
