Apotheosis

Zen chose to continue exploring the palace after jumping out of these rings.

Behind the main hall was another hall.

Zen pushed open the door and stepped inside, his expression shifting.

This hall was hundreds of times wider than the main hall with seven rings. It looked like it was anywhere between 30, 000 and 40, 000 feet high.

It was so huge that it could fit an ordinary-sized mountain within it!

In the middle of the hall stood a huge statue.

"Three heads and six arms?"

This three-headed statue almost reached the roof of the hall.

The three heads all had the same face, but with varied expressions. The one in the middle was angry, the one on the left was happy, and the one on the right was sad.

All six arms held different weapons:

a machete, a sword, an axe, a dagger, a hammer, and a crossbow.

"This is the Soaring Snake Sword!"

Zen's eyes widened at the realization.

The sword that the statue was holding was exactly the same as the one Rocher had used in the Illusion Battlefield.

"This must be Chiyou's statue!"

Zen understood now.

The figure of the man Zen had seen in the Divine Time Temple was that of Chiyou when he had created the divine land. He didn't have three heads or six arms.

This statue before him was perhaps another of Chiyou's incarnations.

Zen looked up at the statue for a while.

If what his mother had said was true, he was Chiyou's grandson.

A mighty warrior as Chiyou who had created the divine land had actually had to help his people escape! Just how powerful did his enemy have to be?

Zen shook his head.

He could hardly imagine such a confrontation.

It was also beyond Zen's imagination that the beast bones at the bottom of the chaos really existed outside the divine land.

After observing the statue for a while, Zen looked at the wall at the back of the hall.

The wall was about 40, 000 feet high and had words of a huge size inscribed on it.

"These words could only have been left by Chiyou," Zen concluded and then began to read the words on the wall.

His mother had told him that Chiyou himself didn't use Sanskrit words. The words en

f the band, but in the end, I could not. The divine land has stopped falling now but I just can't seem to get rid of the light band," Zen repeated what he had seen.

"You mean, the band of red light has bound the divine land?"

Harold asked, his eyebrows disappearing into his hairline.

Marsh and Gibson looked at each other, astonished.

As Holy Beings, they were well aware of the massive size of the divine land. Even the universes they had built were as tiny as ants on the surface of the divine land.

What kind of light band was strong enough to bind the entire divine land together?

How long was the band? What kind of powerful force could stop the divine land from falling?

It was unbelievable!

"Yes, absolutely. I had observed it for a long time. The band came from below the divine land, the bottom of the chaos," Zen said with certainty.

Harold's mouth dropped open in shock.

It was quite a sight to watch Harold drop out of his calm demeanor and look so shocked.

"Harold, do you have any idea about what's going on?" Marsh asked curiously.

Harold was silent for a while before he decided to speak. "My master told me many years ago that the legendary Source World isn't the only place where extraordinary creatures live. There are a large number of creatures at the bottom of the chaos that are despised by the Chaos Ancient God. They are known as the Out-of-Land Fiends in the Source World."
