"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 wouldn't dare try that,"
said Caroline with a bitter smile.
"He does what? Really?"
Austin couldn't help but exclaim in shock.
By this time, Julian had already fallen back to sleep.
Austin and Caroline both looked at their son in a moment of worried silence.
"In that case, please wait here. I'll be back soon."
The shock of the revelation caused a flash of inspiration to fly across Austin's mind as he mindlessly
blurted out his words.
"Oh, Austin, where on earth are you going?"
Everyone was stunned.
"I'm going to set out and get to the bottom of Julian's strange behavior.
Wait just a moment. I'll be back soon."
Austin quickly mobilized himself and disappeared.
In the blink of an eye, he'd arrived at where he intended to go.
Austin arrived at the square where his statue master lay in the depths of the Fallen Divine valley.
"Master, I have a question to ask you."
Austin stood in front of the statue and bowed his head respectfully as he made his request.
The more he knew about the strength of the god of chaos, the more respectful Austin was to his
master.
The god of chaos was the true ruler of all chaotic spaces. He practically held everything in the palm of
his hand.
Perhaps the statue master could tell him what was going on with Julian.
If he didn't know, then there would be no one else there that would know either.
"It's about my son, Julian."
Austin proceeded to tell him everything about Julian in detail.
"I see. Your son, I'd already noticed this before actually.
To be honest, he is quite a shock.
I didn't expect an Ultimate Divine Embryo to come from your direct bloodline."
The voice that rang out of the statue had surprised Austin.
"An Ultimate Divine Embryo?
What's going on? Master, I don't understand."
Austin was dumbfounded at the sudden revelation.
"The Ultimate Divine Embryo exists in a unique way.
It appears by chance, or pure coincidence.
Though, generally speaking, it has been said that the union of two divine gods could produce an
Ultimate Divine Embryo;
but even with that advantage, the odds are extremely low.
It should be nearly impossible, even.
This is my first time even hearing of the actual existence of the Ultimate Divine Embryo,"
the statue exclaimed.
"In order to give birth to an Ultimate Divine Embryo, the two divine gods who will birth it must be the
cream of the crop in talent. Both of them must be the rarest talents among all.
Moreover, the time, place, and the process of pregnancy are also key elements to bring it into the
world.
I never expected you'd manage to birth an Ultimate Divine Embryo.
You must be one extremely lucky fellow indeed."
The statue master could not help but give a bitter and envious smile as he spoke.
"Master, in your opinion, do you truly believe that Julian is an Ultimate Divine Embryo?"
Austin was still at a loss for words as he listened to his master's explanation. He didn't expect that his
son was an Ultimate Divine Embryo. It was like a dream.
"Okay, let me explain this whole Ultimate Divine Embryo thing in detail for you."
The statue master gave a calm smile.
"The Ultimate Divine Embryo is a very amazing and extraordinary existence.
After they're born, they have no need to do any cultivation. They naturally absorb all kinds of energy
and laws from heaven and earth directly into their bodies. They can refine and transform each one all
on their own.
They also fall into deep slumbers every once in a while. This actually means they've already absorbed
too much energy and too many laws.
So they need to sleep in order to digest the energy and laws.
Your son is exactly like this.
They need not cultivate, since the organic process of their growth was the process of his cultivation.
Eventually, every Ultimate Divine Embryo is destined to become a governing god.
There is even a fifty-fifty chance that he could even eventually become a god of chaos,"
explained the statue master to Austin.
"What?!
No way. This is unbelievable.
He doesn't need any cultivation at all? Then he'll become a governing god?"
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.
