Apotheosis

Amber and the world lords from Prison Island were also watching this scene unfold from the other side of the Inauguration Altar.

Only Prison Island's guards, Fannie and Sammy had fought with Zen before.

Fannie and Sammy finally understood now why they weren't able to shake Zen in the slightest, forget defeating him, even when they used their full strength. They had definitely underestimated his strength…

As for Amber, she was abnormally calm in this situation.

This youth who had killed his way around the Sea God Continent was already on par with a Supreme Lord in the blink of an eye.

Supreme Lord Shadow was extremely excited right now.

He had suffered a great loss just now due to his carelessness.

Ambushing and assassinating people from the back was his forte. He had never in his wildest dreams expected Zen to predict his move and counterattack first!

As a result, Supreme Lord Shadow was pretty much defenseless against Zen's counterattack.

It would have been fine if it was an ordinary counterattack, but Supreme Lord Shadow was overwhelmed with the power that Zen had unleashed at this moment. The seemingly casual strike contained enough power to cause his internal organs to be damaged as it surged through him. He spat out a mouthful of blood.

It was a humiliating defeat for someone of this stature!

Supreme Lord Shadow was baffled with this turn of events. What method had Zen used? How did he know beforehand that he would attack him from behind?

Supreme Lord Shadow's Heavenly Destiny was Shadow Dance. If he hid himself, in theory, no one would be able to find him in the universe. In some sense, this Heavenly Destiny wasn't so impressive, but it could prove to be very lethal. He could sneakily approach anyone. Even a Supreme Lord would worry about being assassinated!

He naturally did not know that everything within the range of the will of worlds was transparent to Zen.

In fact, when Zen and Leroy were facing Faith Trial, he was already aware of the existence of Supreme Lord Korbin and Supreme Lord Shadow. Zen would have not taken any action if those Supreme Lords had chosen to leave him be. However, now that they had started the battle, he would not be lenient! Every strike he made was resolute and forceful.

Supreme Lord Shadow reached out to feel the trace of blood on the corner of his mouth. His eyes were like poisonous scorpions as they bore into Zen. "How did you know?"

Zen turned around and asked, "Why should I tell you?"

"If you don't, you're dead for sure!" Supreme Lord Shadow threatened.

Zen's smile grew wider. "Are you trying to tell me that you will spare my life if I tell you?"

"Hah! In your dreams!"

Supreme Lord Shadow lost his patience at this point.

Fighting with a world-lord-level kid would be a waste of time. Now that he had been humiliated, he just wanted to kill Zen as soon as possible!

Swoosh!

Supreme Lord Shadow suddenly split into two black shadows, vanishing on the spot!

He was about to execute a second assassination…

Leroy'

the body of Supreme Lord Korbin reformed. The "Substitute Fire Emissary" was Supreme Lord Korbin's self-enlightened flame theurgy. It had helped him to ward off disasters countless times!

Supreme Lord Korbin's plan was that once Supreme Lord Shadow took down Zen, he could work together with him, and then dealing with Leroy would be a breeze. Thus, Korbin thought that Leroy should be the one to be most anxious right now, and not him!

Clearly, the five arrows didn't work, so Leroy turned to Zen, who was standing on the other side.

He was worried. 'Supreme Lord Shadow appears and disappears like a ghost. Will Zen be able to avoid getting assassinated?'

The only thing that gave Leroy some comfort was that Zen's reflexes were astonishing. This kid had even broken through Leroy's Fixed Vision Theurgy.

Leroy was puzzled by this, because breaking the Law of Causality was a violation of common sense.

Zen had refused to tell him how he did it, but he had been trying to figure it out. In the end, he had only come up with one possibility: that Zen might have a kind of theurgy, which allowed him to see through people's soul. That was how he knew where he was going to shoot his arrow, and had snapped it into two so easily.

If his guess was correct, then it would be very difficult for Supreme Lord Shadow to defeat Zen …

Supreme Lord Leroy had stopped fighting and Supreme Lord Korbin regarded Zen.

Zen was still floating in the air, but he was turning in a certain direction. A mocking smile was plastered on his face as he stared into the void, giving no clue as to what he was going to do.

After activating the Shadow Dance, it was theoretically impossible to detect Supreme Lord Shadow's location. With this Law of Causality, he could get close to anyone without being detected!

But that kid Zen was staring right at him!

Looking at Zen's smiling face, Supreme Lord Shadow felt that he had been very foolish in his tactics. He had never felt so aggrieved before. It was as if he had swallowed a rat!
