Chapter 822 Secrets of the Golden Key ( 2 )

At this point, Vale's Avatar knew that the original body was still in danger of being completely taken over by the Death God.

It was only with the help of the Dragons and with Vale's permission at the last moment that they were able to stop the corruption or possession from being completed.

However, according to the two Time Manipulators, the possession of the Death God may be unavoidable, but it was possible to trick it by transferring the possession attempt to a different vessel.

Indeed, aside from delaying the possession like what the Dragons had done, it was also possible to avoid the possession by finding a different vessel to replace the target, which was Vale in this case.

Needless to say, the vessel that could do this could only be found in the Celestial Prison Realm.

As a matter of fact, it was also one of the reasons why the Time Manipulators like them wanted to acquire the Golden Key.

There was a huge flaw in being a Time Manipulator. It was the fact that they could not manipulate the age of their physique!

Although they possess a god-like ability to control time, they had to, unfortunately, use it with a physique that was just barely above average Arcanists.

However, after learning that they could get a vessel or body that could help them achieve the apex, they all wanted to obtain this Golden Key!

As a matter of fact, Vale was already guessing that Mennena also wanted this vessel...

'We're not sure how many perfect vessels or apex bodies we could get in that realm... If it's only one, I have to use it to save my original body...' Vale thought.

Nonetheless, he didn't react too much after hearing Arch Fey's words.

His facial expression remained inscrutable beneath the shifting shadows that cloaked his form. Nonetheless, he decided to act in the end.

With a final nod of dismissal, Vale released Mennena from her temporal confinement...

As the Time Manipulators dismantled the complex Temporal Formation Art that had ensnared the Arch Fey, a sense of liberation filled the room...

With Mennena's departure, Vale turned his attention to Aersus, a familiar Dragon that he had killed in the Mystic Soul Tower before.

To his surprise, however, he realized that Orden had already defeated Aersus!

Meanwhile, as Mennena returned to her Realm, a transformation unlike any other began to take hold of her once-majestic form.

The essence of her being felt like it had been tainted by the shadows of resentment. There was like a physical metamorphosis that twisted her once-lovely features into a visage of malevolence and darkness!

Her once-ethereal beauty was now marred by a sinister touch!

Her eyes, once pools of knowledge, now gleamed with a chilling intensity that hinted at the depths of her wrath.

The delicate curves of her face contorted into a sneer of contempt, while her once-flowing locks of iridescent light now coiled like serpents of shadow around her twisted form!

Her previous benevolent grace was gone. She no longer appears like a true Arch Fey of the Mirror Realm!

Instead, in its place stood a being of corruption and deceit...

As she surveyed her altered reflection in the mirror, a cruel smirk played upon her lips...

"That Shadow Immortal dares to spurn my generosity, does he?" Mennena's voice echoed...

"His arrogance shall be his downfall..."
