now.

Although it was still late at night in Japan, the full moon was high in the sky.

However, Mount Everest, which is tens of thousands of kilometers away from Japan, is still in daytime.

At the top of Mount Everest, there stands a majestic large palace.

Because of the special construction material, even the surrounding super-gravity environment and extremely cold temperature did not destroy this place at all, but only left a layer of frost on the surface that would not melt for thousands of years.

Its architectural style not only has the shadow of Western Greece, Persia..., but also the shadow of Eastern countries.

That is because from ancient times to the present, some awakened people would arrive here from time to time and regard this place as their own residence.

It is said that the early history of this palace can be traced back to the Atlantis period, but after countless destructions and reconstructions, it is now difficult to see the original shadow. At most, we can remember it through various ancient records.

The main structure of the current palace was built by a living Buddha five thousand years ago, which naturally resulted in the preservation of a large number of Buddha statues inside the palace.

The rest of the cultural features of various countries were all added slowly by later generations. Although they exist, they account for a small proportion.

In the last two hundred years.

This is a place where few awakened people would come on their own initiative.

And, to this day, in the extremely distant outer space, there are thousands of space satellites silently watching this place at any time.

The reason for this is simple.

There is a person living in this place now.

The most powerful person on the entire planet!

Today, that existence still did not do anything special.

Just sitting quietly on the edge of the mountain and looking at the scenery in the distance.

As the saying goes, the higher you stand, the farther you can see. Sitting at this height, he can naturally see extremely far away.

In short, he was a man with a very well-proportioned figure, about forty years old, with a look that could be described as handsome and mature. He was dressed in an old grey robe with a very simple color scheme, without any complicated combination.

The most striking feature of this person is that the look in his eyes is exceptionally calm, just like the surface of a lake that is extremely calm without even a ripple, without any surprise or joy.

It was not until the clouds rolled in the sky, covering the satellite in space, and another figure came behind him that he slowly stood up.

"Everything is almost ready."

This is what the visitor said.

Hear this.

The man who had just stood up did not look back, but just stood there and responded calmly: "Yeah."

Then he looked into the distance and said calmly:

"I should be there soon."

"Now, I plan to go out for a walk and see with my own eyes how the world has changed in the last two hundred years."

Hearing his answer, the visitor's expression was immediately stunned, and then turned into ecstasy:

"Are you almost there too?"

"you mean……"

The man replied calmly:

"I'm about to be promoted."

“I can feel that I have reached the limit of the [Sublimation Stage].”

"The next level is just around the corner!"

"This level that no one has ever reached in the hundreds of thousands of years of history of this planet is beckoning to me. Maybe in a year, or maybe in a few months, anyway, I will complete the promotion in about a year and a half."

The plain words made the visitor couldn't help but say excitedly:

"It seems that no one can stop our plan!"

For the awakened ones, their strength at each stage will be greatly improved compared to the previous stage.

And the span will become larger and larger.

For example, the gap between the [initial awakening stage] and the [mature stage] is far smaller than the gap between the [mature stage] and the [self stage], and the gap between the [self stage] and the [perfect stage] is even larger... and so on, it is like a round of evolution, which is not only a change in strength, but also a change in life level.

Therefore, the visitor knew very well that once the man really reached the level that no one had ever reached, he would immediately create a huge gap in strength between himself and all the awakened people on this planet!

That is a force that no one in the world can resist! !

It can easily crush all the awakened people recorded in history! !

However, after being happy, he became confused about the second half of the other party's words.

“Why do we have to go shopping now?”

"Wouldn't it be safer and more convenient to go after you advance?"

"It doesn't take long anyway."

In their eyes, a year or two is not much different from a week for ordinary people.

The man turned his back to the newcomer and shook his head.

"No need. Even now, no one can truly threaten me."

"And...how should I put it? In the past few months, I have always had a strange feeling in my heart, a feeling of being heartbroken."

"It's as if something strange happened in the distance."

"I think I need to go check it out."

"Maybe it will be interesting..."

Although the visitor didn't understand what the other party was saying, he still felt that the other party's desire to go out for a walk was not so easy to change, so he could only say:

"...Okay, I understand. Do you need me to sit here and pretend to be you?"

"After all, there are satellites in outer space watching here."

The visitor knew very well that as a dangerous element closely monitored by countries around the world, once the fact that the man in front of him had left Mount Everest was discovered, the whole world would be in turmoil and all kinds of spy agencies would have to step up their activities.

Therefore, in order to maintain superficial calm and not attract any attention, the visitor can sit here for a while on behalf of the other party and fool the observers.

However, this proposal was rejected:

"unnecessary."

"It's okay to be discovered."

"Just think of it as a warm-up to let everyone know that something big is about to happen."

"I want to see who is standing against us this time."

"Just in time to clean it up."

Hearing this.

After a long silence.

The visitor could only nod and say:

"Okay, I see."

As soon as he finished speaking, the visitor saw the man in front of him take a step forward and fall straight down the mountain.

In response, the visitor chose to turn around and leave after looking for a while.

As for the other party's safety?

Just as the other party said.

Even now, no one can do anything to the other party.

Due to the particularity of supernatural powers.

Even if the opponent is hit in the face by a nuclear bomb with a yield of tens of trillion tons, or is hit head-on by a nuclear explosion, there will be no damage at all.

Instead of worrying about the other person's safety, it would be better to seriously think about how to deal with it if the other person makes a big noise in the outside world...
