The same source...
After a long silence, Zhou Chen let out a breath. He wasn't overly shocked or flustered, but he wasn't exactly calm either.
To think he'd participate in a Sword Forging Competition only to end up with an extraordinary item that shared the same source of Power as the Wish Bottle. No matter how he looked at it, this was no coincidence. It was hard not to think of "destiny," as if everything had been fated from the start.
But in reality, this event wasn't that strange. At its core, it was simply the mutual attraction and completion between Powers of the same source. Many Ascenders and Crowned Kings who possessed Authority Objects had encountered similar situations. It was unavoidable.
The weight of an Authority was enough to influence not only one's own fate but the fate of others as well.
What truly unsettled Zhou Chen was the origin of this Santa Claus gem.
—It came from the Old Era.
