The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2498
Even after he got out of the water, however, Gerald wasn’t able to gauge how deep underground he was now. That
aside, the ocean he had fallen into almost seemed boundless! From a rough estimate, he’d say that the body of
water covered at least half of the northwest area…
“How strange for this underground ocean to even exist!” muttered Gerald to himself before starting to fly around to
see if there were any clues lying around.
It wasn’t all that long before Gerald heard something rushing past him beneath the waves! Since Gerald could see
perfectly well even in the dark, he was able to catch a glimpse of a massive shadow bolting off underwater.
Once it was out of sight, Gerald was prompted to mutter, “Could secrets lie at the bottom of the ocean?”

After surveying his surroundings once more and confirming that there was nothing unusual around him, Gerald
eventually added, “Well, I guess searching the bottom of the ocean is better than flying aimlessly up here!”
Since there weren’t even signs of the hole he had earlier leaped down from, Gerald ultimately dove into the ocean
again.
Now that he was more vigilant, Gerald quickly realized that the water quickly got colder and colder the deeper he
went.
He also sensed that the water was brimming with demonic spirits… Even so, Gerald simply braved through the
frigidness and began looking around.
Unfortunately, even after searching for the longest time, Gerald wasn’t able to find anything.
In fact, he hadn’t even been able to bump into the rapid shadow from earlier!
This prompted the frowning boy to think, ‘Even after using my Golden Blaze Somersault a few times, I’ve yet to find
a border. Does this place
even have one? If this goes on, I’ll be stuck here for the next thousand years!”
If this was a regular ocean, Gerald should’ve definitely found an edge to the ocean by now.
With that in mind, the sharp witted Gerald paused for a moment and shortly after, his eyes lit up!
Could all this be an illusion instead? I wonder if this is the divine ability of the Realm in the Sleeve, the highest realm
of formations as written in Saint Amorphous’ book of formations’
The way the book had described the divine ability was certainly similar to his current surroundings.
Essentially, upon being cast, the spell’s caster would be able to create a borderless illusionary world with just their
sleeve.
As for those trapped within such illusions, Gerald had read that they’d never be able to free themselves no matter
how powerful they were.
All that awaited them was eventual death.
With that in mind, this was pretty much less of a realm and more of a universe of its own and no matter how
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpowerful one was, they’d never be able to fly out of a universe!
They’d ultimately only be moving about in a tiny area within the universe’s vastness! Regardless, the more Gerald
thought about it, the more certain he was that all this was just an illusion.
As he continued pondering the situation, he wondered how many of the others had leaped down as well.
If they were down here, they should be nearby.
Well, under normal circumstances. Within this realm created through divine abilities, being just a millimeter apart
could feel like there was a universe between them.
With that in mind, he wouldn’t be able to see or even touch the others.
‘Still, all this simply confirms that this should be it. After all, since he was previously a powerful Zearl, it only makes
sense that he has access to such a divine ability.
Regardless, there’s no way I’d willingly remain trapped here forever!’ Gerald thought to himself with a frown..
Following that thought, Gerald was prompted to think of the only divine ability that he had truly mastered.
And that was the transformation technique! Back then, the ability had allowed him to pass through the Red River.
Since that was the case, Gerald wondered if it’d work in this situation as well.
In the end, the boy decided to give it a go.
