I Want a Divorce by Abigail Quinn

Chapter 91

“What substance could the bridge pier be made of? It must not be ordinary as it can even scare the fierce and enormous Nubia Python,” Oliver wondered.

Oliver originally wanted to identify it, but the bridge pier was under the Alpar River. He needed to stare at the object he wanted to identify for three seconds before his eyes’ identification skills could be triggered.

Since he couldn’t see the bridge pier at all, there was no way to trigger his identification skills.

Among the nine people, only Oliver knew where the Nubia Python was and that they weren’t in danger. The other eight all shuddered with fear.

If the Nubia Python suddenly emerged from the water, then all the people on the river would probably be dead. The creature was not something that humans could confront.

Fortunately, everyone dauntingly crossed the dangerous river without mishap. After they climbed up to the shore, they all breathed long sighs of relief.

Delight overtook Gunther’s withered face as he realized that bringing Oliver here was his greatest blessing.

From escaping the Enchanting Fog to unintentionally scaring off the Great Wolf and even avoiding the Nubia Python and crossing the Alpar River, these fatal difficulties that everyone thought could not be solved were all resolved by Oliver. Whether he was really capable or just too lucky, he always managed to solve the problems.

If it weren’t for Oliver, they would still be waiting for their deaths in Enchanting Fog!

Just then, Gunther noticed that everyone was happy, except for Oliver, who was staring at the river blankly. He patted Oliver on the shoulder and said, “Oliver, thank you. But… the bridge piers are under the river, so no one can really see them. How did you know they’re here?”

Oliver pondered for a while before answering, “Mr. Fox, I roughly studied this river from where we came in until where we are now. It surrounds Mount Rockenan ahead and forms a circle around it. Moreover, the river is not running water but standing water. The water level of the whole circle is the same, and there is no upstream or downstream. I observed it throughout the long journey and found that its shape resembles the essence of the Eight Doors Formation, namely Beginning, Tranquility, Life, Misfortune, Obstacle, Perturbation, Destruction, and Death. The Door of Life from the Eight Doors Formation is located at the bridge pier here. Actually, all things in this world correspond to each other. There’s life and death, up and down, and sky and earth. There is an effective antidote for every acute poison out there, so naturally, there would be a Door of Life in a rare, dangerous spot like the Alpar River.””
