Apotheosis

There were nine pagodas, all built within ten feet of each other. Complicated, mysterious patterns were carved onto them which emitted an extremely powerful Time Law.

"These nine pagodas can be pieced together, it seems," Zen muttered.

Each pagoda had its own distinct pattern that seemed to be able to connect to another pagoda. If all nine were put together, it could form the complete picture.

The Sun Blind race currently worshipped these nine pagodas, so a solemn and peaceful environment hung over the area.

"Please wait here. Be quiet," a Sun Blind member told them in a low voice.

The True Gods all nodded and found a place to sit down.

Aleyna and Kelsey, who had been following Laquisha closely, took this as an opportunity to get closer to Zen.

The young man was looking at the pagodas when two girls suddenly appeared beside him. He was a little surprised but kept calm. "What is it?" he asked in a low voice.

"What did you do to my sister?" Aleyna asked in a low voice, but there was a hint of a smile in her eyes.

"Laquisha doesn't seem to look happy recently," Kelsey added.

Zen couldn't help but reveal a helpless smile with these two girls questioning him.

He didn't think he did anything wrong. Laquisha was a princess of the Han Clan while he was a desperado who had been walking in the dark. Agreeing to her proposal would only cause her more harm.

"Say it!" Aleyna snapped angrily at Zen.

Seeing this, Zen figured that she wouldn't give up that easily. He shook his head helplessly and used his chaotic energy to communicate with her. "I will be leaving soon. Your sister wanted to leave with me but I refused."

It might be a better choice to just tell her the truth since Aleyna might be able to change her sister's mind. It made Zen's heart ache to see such a sad expression on Laquisha's face.

Aleya tilted her head in thought and glanced at her sister carefully.

She then turned to Zen and raised an eyebrow. "Why did you refuse? Isn't my sister a good woman? She was even willing to elope with you! You're so heartless to refuse her like that. A man like you..."

Zen looked at her in a daze. He never expected Aleyna to rebuke him.

Kelsey looked at them in confusion. She just knew they were talking through telepathy. "What are you talking about?"

Zen ignored her and chose to reply to Aleyna verbally instead. "You know my background," he said and pointed t

Holy Emperor of the Zhao Clan, Hamlin Zhao. Outsiders call him Holy Hamlin."

Hamlin Zhao nodded in acknowledgment of the consummate True God's greeting before suddenly disappearing. The next moment, he suddenly appeared above the square.

As he appeared above the square, another ball of red light rolled over from the horizon and a burly man appeared out of thin air.

The consummate True God politely bowed at the newcomer. "Greetings, Holy Clark!"

Holy Clark's face was flushed red and he let out a loud laugh. "You're too polite!" he said, descending from the sky. He raised his fingers and gently rubbed them together. Wisps of flame appeared, weaving together and forming a huge flame throne for him to sit in.

Zen heard Holy Clark's voice before. Back in the Arena of Legends, Harold announced that he forbade the Tang Clan from entering the Everest Spirit Mountain and got into a fierce argument with Clark as a result.

The flame throne summoned by Holy Clark was peculiar, and Zen's heart skipped a beat when he took a closer look.

The flame was condensed from the Elementary Fire Godly Way and its internal momentum was astonishing. There was no doubt that the Holy Being had mastered the Godly Way with ease since no heat emanated from the throne despite it burning so brightly.

Judging from his behavior, Holy Clark most likely became a Holy Being through his reliance on the Elementary Fire Godly Way. Zen wasn't sure what stage it was in, but if he used the Infinity Ruler to get its internal momentum, then it would benefit him greatly.

He thought about it, but did not dare act rashly.
