Byron naturally considered it as the cornerstone of his own Divine Kingdom early on.
Unlike Catherine’s [Pyramid], Violet’s [Golden Mist Palace] required a vast amount of ti, money, and resources to construct.
And then attract carefully selected followers to build the divine realm.
The [Flower Mountain Celestial Kingdom] had already been nurtured by the Taya People for over a thousand years, accumulated with abundant strength, saving him large amounts of ti and resources.
Byron did not hesitate; after confirming it was authentic, he raised his hand and collected the two skulls into the [Flower Mountain Celestial Kingdom].
Buzz—!
Suddenly, a white halo exploded above, its magnificent stream of light cascading upward like a river of light surging toward the heavens.
Everyone could see that within it a vast world seed to rise and fall.
The centerpiece was an enormous mountain range resembling a coiling giant dragon, with no visible end or beginning.
On and below the mountain were dense tropical rainforests, teeming with nurous Thunderbirds, feathered serpents, leopards, eagles, tigers, and other fierce beasts.
The Taino People, who revered blood sacrifices, never feared death, believing in the cycle of the soul and rebirth as the Corn God once obtained eternity.
No matter whether the lowest slaves, offerings, or noble kings, ultimately they would achieve eternity after death.
In Heaven, they transform into a bald cypress, golden wood, palm tree, mahogany, cocoa tree, cactus, dahlia... whether tree or flower or grass, all grow on the Divine Mountain, which is the mountain of origin [Flower Mountain].
Just like the heroic spirits among the Bayfolk, most of whom eternally sleep in the Valhalla Hall of Heroes.
After so ti, their self-awareness completely rges with the collective consciousness, indistinguishable from Flower Mountain.
The more undead sleeping within, the wider and more solid the "Flower Mountain Celestial Kingdom" becos.
In essence, it’s a continuous strengthening of the "collective subconscious sea," enhancing the national heritage.
The taller the trees on the mountain, the stronger their powers were in life.
Byron, as the [Lord of Heaven], can temporarily borrow the remaining spirituality from them, bestowing it to an appropriate Beast Spirit Warrior, enhancing the strength of the living.
However, just as the twelve Crystal Skulls that had grown individually for years reunited and sought to rge.
The halo above Byron’s head always retained a gap that couldn’t be bridged.
The problem lies precisely in the missing number nine skull [Death God] Ah-Puch.
Atahualpa tily reminded:
"Your Majesty, the Lord of Heaven, my people found that the last skull had fallen into the sphere of influence controlled by the Ancient God’s Chosen Races on the Southern Continent East Coast.
Half a month ago, when a team was sent to redeem it, the [Desire Compass] showed the skull was no longer on the Southern Continent, heading east across the Sea of Monsters to the Eastern Continent.
So we could only find these two."
Beside him, Catherine couldn’t help but feel disappointed upon hearing this:
"Missing one is not much different from missing three; even though we need to go to the Eastern Continent eventually, missing just one makes the whole treasure mountain a vain guard, which is terribly frustrating."
Byron had already predicted this situation upon receiving the news, calmly saying:
"Not necessarily.
If it were other Crystal Skulls missing, I might have a hard ti, but since it’s the [Death God] missing, I’ll have to give it a try."
[Death God’s] absence may seem irreparable to others but not for Byron.
With a wave of his hand, his own authority [Styx of the Nether River] swept up black torrents and surged into the [Flower Mountain Celestial Kingdom], forbidding any material from entering.
Snap!
Just a crisp sound, and the boundary between reality and illusion instantly shattered.
Adding a segnt of Nether River’s water flow to the halo above Byron’s head, it suddenly connected, seamlessly and perfectly.
"I am a handful of soil from the Netherworld, filling in wherever needed.
Holding the most complete [Underworld Authority] and a river penetrating all material worlds [Nether River], in this world there simply isn’t a Death God I... couldn’t substitute!"
Byron took Catherine’s hand, stepping forward, unobstructedly entering the Flower Mountain Celestial Kingdom.
