Apotheosis

These elites all came from rich clans and were particularly proud of their good conscience. They would never neglect to pay a debt of gratitude.

However, they were currently caught in an extremely precarious situation. Rushing out now would mean immediate death and their conscience wasn't enough for them to risk their lives.

"Jolyon... Do you have any more puppets?" a True God asked.

Jolyon had successfully lured a batch of Time Ghosts away with his puppets earlier. Unfortunately, that led to all of them getting cut into pieces.

"Yes but I don't think they'll be really useful," Jolyon said.

He did have several powerful puppets, even a special one that was even stronger than himself.

"These Time Ghosts are blocking the door. Puppets will be useless against them," Pascal pointed out.

Jolyon nodded in agreement.

Sending out the puppets would only result in them getting surrounded by the Time Ghosts. They would only end up getting cut up and destroyed.

"Help!"

Reginald was still in the air with a bunch of Time Ghosts hot at his tail. His life was currently on the line as he would be dead meat the moment his pursuer caught up with him.

The sight of Reginald literally running for his life gave the other True Gods bad anxiety.

Even Woodruff, who was outside the Time Sea Forbidden Land, frowned deeply when he saw this scene.

The War God Hall did not have many True Gods but each one of them was extremely talented and powerful. Reginald was one of Woodruff's own disciples and the master was certain his student could become a consummate True God in the future. He wouldn't want to see that go to waste if Reginald ended up dying here in the Time Sea.

It was at this time that Zen walked towards the door of the Divine Time Temple. As he approached, the Time Ghosts grew restless.

Laquisha gritted her teeth in concern. She wanted to stop him but ended up not saying anything.

"Thad! Don't get too close to them," Kelsey warned.

Zen was only two or three inches away from the Time Ghosts. "These Time Ghosts' attacks are simple. All they do is channel the power of the time cracks, surround their targets, and cut them into pieces..." he muttered.

"The problem is that no one can resist the cutting power of the time cracks," Pascal pointed out.

The young man smiled. "There's no need to block the cutting power. There are things that can't be cut into pieces."

All of the True Gods present stared at Zen in confusion. Even Nelly couldn't help but speak, "What kind of thing can't be cut into pieces?"

"Water, or any sort of

quickly sat down. "Thank you!" he said in a breathless voice.

Warriors of the War God Hall always had a fiery temper but good morals. Having escaped death, Reginald couldn't thank Zen enough. He was truly grateful from the bottom of his heart.

"You're welcome. I just did what I had to do. Besides, you got yourself in such a dangerous situation because you wanted to save everyone," Zen replied. Reginald could've definitely run away by relying on his own strength but he chose to lure the Time Ghosts instead. Not everyone had the courage to do such a thing.

Zen then looked at the Golden Beast Statue in the distance. He didn't know if the Divine Time Temple had any other points of exit or entry. If it only had this one door, then he would still need to use the Golden Beast Statue when they left later.

Woodruff witnessed all this outside the Time Sea Forbidden Land. "Good, good, good! Which clan is that boy from? He looks very promising! If he ever finds himself in our War God Hall in the future, I shall definitely reward him!"

"This little guy sure does have some abilities but there's also some luck at play here. I was afraid Reginald was about to die at some point," another Holy Being said.

Was it through skill or merely sheer luck that this boy managed to successfully save Reginald?

A faint smile made its way on Joy's face. Worry lingered in her heart despite Zen's heroic bravery. The more people paid attention to him, the more trouble he could potentially be in. She only hoped for the young man's safety and that he would safely leave the Time Sea Forbidden Land. Once the Astronomical Transit Day ended, she also hoped for his uneventful departure from the Han Clan's Floating Island.
