The Secretly Rich Man

The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2499

After initiating his transformation technique, Gerald then turned himself into a faint beam of light that dove deep into the borderless ocean!

When he finally spread out his divine sense again, Gerald realized that he had managed to break free from the illusion.

Currently, he found himself in what appeared to be a mansion's storage space. As for how he made that guess, it was because there were several boxes of varying sizes lying all around him.

Though Gerald was left slightly confused, he was more relieved than anything as he thought, 'Thank god I knew how to transform...

Otherwise, I would've been trapped in there forever!

Shivering slightly to the thought of that outcome, Gerald quickly shook his head before starting to look around... Apart from the boxes, the only other thing within the room was a landscape painting scroll hanging on the wall.

The painting portrayed a huge, open space within a peach forest that was surrounded by high mountains and waterfalls.

There was even a picturesque river, and the pleasantries of the painting reminded Gerald of a fairyland there were also several cranes in it.

However, what caught his attention most was the amount of detail on the pavilion in the open space.

From the looks of it, there was an old man sitting there, and he seemed rather in tune with all the beauty surrounding him... Just above the pavilion, hovered a dragon and phoenix, both painted extremely lifelike.

While the painting was certainly breathtaking, Gerald quickly realized that there was nothing too special about it. With that, his attention turned to the boxes.

After a quick scan across the room, Gerald saw that there were eight small boxes, and a single huge one.

Unsure what to expect, he then walked over to a random box to open it and shortly after, he was greeted by the sight of a dark, red bead that was exuding a thick, feminine aura!

"The Yinblood pellet!" exclaimed the overjoyed boy.

After going through so much trouble to get it, he had finally found the pellet! Once he had safely stored the pellet on him, Gerald then began opening another box.

Realizing that this box also contained a few pellets, Gerald cautiously gave the pellets a sniff and shortly after, he deduced that they were angelic pellets. While he had no idea what they were used for, he was certain that they were useful, so he simply took them along.

It was when he finally opened the last box that he hesitated for a moment.

Compared to the previous boxes, this box didn't contain angelic pellets or elixirs.

Instead, there were gold beads inside that were clearly made of metal.

What were these even used for? Grabbing a handful of the beads, Gerald then began weighing them in his hand.

However, it didn't take long for the beads to suddenly begin glowing! Before Gerald could even react, the beads had flown out of his hand and dropped to the floor.

After bouncing on the floor for a bit, the beads flashed again and all of a sudden, there were eighteen vicious looking men in the room!

Each of them was clad in gold armor, and they had golden swords in their hands as well.

Understandably taken aback, Gerald eventually brought himself to mutter, "Um... Who are you, seniors...?."

Upon hearing that, the leader of the group instantly roared, "Trespasser! Finish him...!"

Following, the leader struck a lightblade toward Gerald!

Upon seeing that, Gerald quickly used his Cosmo-Amorphous Sword Technique to intercept the attack..

However, his aurablade ended up shattering to pieces. What's more, the excess power was so great that Gerald ended up slamming against the wall. Though a single of them was clearly capable enough of taking on Gerald, the boy instantly began panicking when he saw all eighteen of them charging toward him. 'Am I really going to die by the hands of these gold beads of all things...?!' Gerald thought to himself as he quickly began performing the Thordifussion Method! Within seconds, the roar of thunder could be heard, and terrifying bolts of lightning even began striking about!

To Gerald's dismay, when a lightning bolt struck one of the golden-clad warriors, the man looked completely unfazed! There wasn't even a scratch on him. "What tarrying levels of cultivation!" exclaimed the shocked boy...
