Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1362
Aside from that, there were also several depictions of massive birds and beasts, and nobody could tell
whether they were drawn that way deliberately.
Continuing to scan through, Gerald soon saw a rather familiar image of a massive bat-like creature.
Looking at it for a while, Gerald found himself thinking, ‘…I met something simr to that back in the
mine where I saved Yume and obtained the water repellent stone, right…? Arge bat with the head of
a human… While I had first assumed that it was some bat demon that had undergone immense
training, since it’s on this mural, it wouldn’t be out of the question for it to actually be some kind of
ancient creature that survived till today… But… How could that even be possible…? There are simply
too many peculiar things at y…’
Turning to look at Queena—who had been utterly fascinated by all the things in the cave for a while
now—Gerald asked, “…Say, what kind of world is being depicted on the walls…? Could it actually be
earth?”
Hearing Gerald’s question, she then replied, “Indeed. More specifically, it seems to be the legendary
earth that existed millions of years ago! I learned about its existence from the data I got back when I
was still in Jaetra. Regardless, the paintings seem to depict a prehistoric civilization that once
roamed the earth. If I had to name the exact civilization, I have a feeling that the murals are showing us
what happened during the short-lived, but extremely glorious Shunzuog Civilization!”
After hearing what Queena had to say, Rosie’s jaw instantly dropped. Nobody could me her. After
all, what Queena had just said was naturally preposterous to a normal person. Gerald himself would’ve
had the same reaction as Rosie had he not already experienced so much by this point.
Regardless, Gerald already knew that Earth had already seen plenty of civilizationse and go by
this point. From what he had found out, there was once a civilization of peculiar and unique humans
that predated the appearance of even the dinosaurs! While dragons existed during that age as well,
that civilization was rather short-lived.
“…Could it be that this mural had been here ever since the age of the Shunzuog Civilization…?”
muttered Gerald curiously.
“No ordinary mural could have remained intact for that long, that’s for sure. With that in mind, why not
try using your Thunder essential qi. I wonder if anything will change…” suggested Queena, her eyes
still locked on the paintings.

Knowing that Queena probably knew the most about all this, Gerald simply obeyed. Activating his
Thunder essential qi, he slowly skimmed it across the painted walls…
Instantly gasping in surprise, Queena found herself eximing, “It… It’s changed! It really has
changed! Look, Gerald! There are many more people and a lot more information on the mural now!”
Gerald had seen the changes too, and he assumed that his actions had forced the entire mural to
completely reveal itself.
“Since you had to use essential qi to reveal the rest of the mural, it’s safe to say that the artisans who
drew this weren’t ordinary people. After all, from the looks of it, they had used the power of thought to
hide the rest of the mural from those incapable of manipting their essential qi, a feat that couldn’t
possibly have been achieved by those without great strength. As for how I figured this would work in
the first ce, certain sects in Jaetra used this method to store other forms of information as well,
prompting me to ask you to try it!”
“Whatever the case is, from what I’ve been able to tell, therge snake was no ordinary creature. After
all, I have a feeling that it relied on essential qi to nourish parts of it,” exined Queena.
“…I see. As it turned out, the rumors about the peculiar civilization really were true…” replied Gerald
with a nod.
Moving closer to the wall to have a better look at all the new information that had just been revealed, it
wasn’t long before Gerald added, “…After looking at it for a bit, everyone—including the beasts—in the
mural appears to be performing some sort of… sacrificial activity? From what I can tell, both humans
and beasts didn’t seem to live in harmony before. However, it’s seen here that all of themter rushed
over—regardless of where they came from—and began worshiping somerge stone statue…”
“…I think I get it now. From what I could gather, the murals are apparently depicting the lives of those
living within some small area during that era of civilization. For both the beasts and humans to unite, I
have a feeling that only someone legendary could’ve possibly gotten them to do so in such a devout
manner…” replied Queena solemnly.
“Do you have any idea who it could’ve been?” asked Gerald, d that he had decided to bring her
along. After all, she knew quite a lot of things.
“Well, I’ve read about that legendary person before in an ancient book I found back when I was still in
Jaetra… Since Jaetra is a ce that highly resembles the prehistoric Shunzuog Civilization, it’s no
surprise to me that the legend lives on there. However, while Jaetra is simr to that civilization, it is
by far a lot weakerpared to it. Hell, it wouldn’t be a stretch to im that anyone from the Shunzuog
Civilization could dominate Jaetra with ease! With that said, they’d barely need to lift a finger to take
over earth!”
“Regardless, I went off-topic for a bit… Moving back to the legend, the legendary person was
apparently the first person from the Shunzuog Civilization who was able to enter the realm of the
Immortal Body. Due to that, he was pretty much invincible! With that in mind, it was no wonder why
everyone—regardless of status or age—back then worshiped him to the highest degree!”
“…The realm of the Immortal Body?”
