Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1854
With that, Gerald sessfully made it past his third soul bamboo, and with a swift attack, he instantly
split it clean in half!
Walking up to Gerald, Torme then smiled as he said, “Congrattions for defeating your inner demon,
Gerald!”
Slightly stunned that Torme knew about his battle, Gerald was prompted to say, “Sir… You… Knew?”
“Indeed. I saw all that happened in each of the soul bamboos. I also know what each soul bamboo here
stands for. Regardless, had you failed to defeat your inner demon, you’d have ended up getting
swallowed by him.

If that came to be, I’m sure you’re aware that not only would your consciousness get sealed deep
within your heart forever, but that inner demon of yours?
He’d take your ce! Thankfully, you managed to defeat him! I must say, you haven’t disappointed me
at all!” dered Torme as he looked at Gerald with a satisfied expression.
Watching as Gerald nodded, Torme then added in a serious tone, “Inner demons are dark
manifestations that exist in everyone’s hearts. Sadly, not many are actually capable of truly vanquishing
them.
While I’vee across many people who’ve attempted to defeat their inner demons, they always
ended up getting swallowed by their inner demons, resulting in them bing their worst
nightmares… With that in mind, since you’ve managed to make it past your demons, I have to say I
greatly admire you, Gerald!”
“I appreciate thepliment, sir! Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ll proceed with the next soul bamboo!”
replied Gerald in a gratuitous tone before walking toward his fourth soul bamboo.
However, before he was able to touch it, Torme suddenly shouted, “Wait!”
Turning around, Gerald raised a slight brow as he asked, “Is… something the matter, sir…?”
“There’s no need to go through the fourth soul bamboo. You’ve passed the test!” replied Torme,
astonishing Gerald quite a bit.
Before Gerald could even reply, he watched as Torme waved his hand… and just like that, both of them
were back in the tower.
“Have… I really passed everything, sir?” asked the confused Gerald.
“Indeed! You’re the most outstanding cultivator I’ve ever met! With that in mind, you have every right to
head to the Phangrottom n’s territory! As promised, I’ll also be handing you the key to therge
entrance of that territory! While I’m sure you’re on some extraordinary mission, do remember that in the
end, whether you’ll be able to obtain what you want ultimately depends on fate…” said Torme.
Gerald himself was currently too pleasantly surprised and excited to feel down by that statement. To
think that he had managed to pass the test without needing to fullyplete it! Torme was even giving
him the key to therge entrance of the Phangrottom n’s territory!
The youth’s train of thought was cut short when Torme revealed a rectangr wooden box before
handing it to Gerald as he said, “The box contains the key I promised. It’s yours to take now!”
Taking the box, Gerald then slowly opened it… and inside, was an iron key with the Phangrottom Rune
on it.
d to have finally obtained it, Gerald immediately replied, “Thank you, sir!”
“You’re very wee, though honestly, you deserve the key. Regardless, a bit of advice before you
head off. The Phangrottoms are a spiritual n that rules over all souls… With that in mind, I’m sure
you can imagine that they’re not ones who are easy to persuade. What I’m saying is please make sure
that you’re mentally ready to face everything, and that includes quite a bit of pain. It’s not a stretch to
im that your real test will begin once you arrive there!” advised Torme.
“Got it. I’ll keep that in mind!” replied Gerald in a respectful tone.
“I’m sure you will. Now head off! The passing permit is already hanging on your waist!” said Torme as
he waved his hand at Gerald.
Upon hearing that, Gerald instantly looked at his waist area… as true to Torme’s words, a passing
permit was hanging there! When had Torme even done the deed…?
