Apotheosis

Four arrows shot from the darkness, three of which flew towards Emily and one aimed for Zen.

The exiles, however, were well-aware that the large races originally targeted Luther who was in the crowd, and not Emily.

Yet, Luther was surrounded by several Wild Gods who formed a barricade around him. He was tightly guarded, which left little room for the enemy to attack.

Therefore, the enemies had set their sights on Emily when they started to move.

Perhaps, the exiles from the small races did not harbor a deep hatred towards Emily. Maybe they simply wanted to eliminate the most powerful person in the world with their own hands when the chance came.

On the other hand, Tyler's target was Zen, who was next to Emily.

Not long ago, Zen, who had suddenly appeared when the Nine Li race and the Yellow Emperor race had competed for the Sky South Bone Tower, had made Tyler's disciple David suffer too much. He later returned to the Pyramid Bone Tower, never to rise again.

That was why Tyler deeply loathed Zen.

Then, Zen displayed his mighty strength after the Strength Equalizing Theurgy was performed, which caused Tyler to be more fearful of him. Thus, he obviously wouldn't let go of the opportunity to kill his enemy.

"Puff!"

Zen lifted his long sword and went straight for a Wight's neck. Then, he stepped on its back and jumped high into the air.

At that moment, he caught a glimpse of a few black rays of light from afar, and all of them flew at a high speed.

"Watch out! There are hidden arrows being shot!" he warned Emily.

He then reflexively twisted his body in the air and brandished his long sword at the same time. There was a crisp sound when the arrow that was aimed at him bounced away.

Meanwhile, Emily had also noticed the three sharp arrows that were aimed at her when Zen shouted.

Her sensibility had been greatly reduced when the Strength Equalizing Theurgy worked. Thus, she had only noticed the arrows when they were just about eight feet away from her.

Her face darkened. She knew that she couldn't dodge, so she stretched out her hand and grabbed the Wight nearest to her. She quickly pulled it and the Wight blocked her in front.

"Puff! Puff! Puff!"

There were three muffled sounds—two arrows had stabbed the Wight's body, and one pierced thr

ivation.

Mike could have forcefully raised Zen's cultivation base, but he didn't. Instead, he had created many training opportunities that pushed Zen to his limits in his inner world, and that made him who he was now.

No one was sure if Mike had foreseen it, but at that moment, the martial arts that Zen had been cultivating did play an important role.

Therefore, the Wild Gods and the exiles were so excited to see Zen in action. It greatly boosted their spirits.

"Everyone, stay in your formations. Don't panic," Emily ordered. She had already pulled out the arrow from her collarbone, but had to bear the sharp pain. Her eyes glowed strangely as she watched Zen's figure shuttle through the Wights.

She had always led her team, and even the powerful Timotheus listened to her command.

However, she didn't expect that Zen unconsciously played the dominant role now.

"Shoot again!" Tyler yelled with gritted teeth as he abruptly waved his hand.

Things had now gotten out of hand and it made him boil in anger.

According to the original plan, they would never lose as long as those Wights caught up with Emily and her companions, while they attacked them with sharp arrows.

He never thought that the inconspicuous youth called Zen would come to them alone!

"Poof! Poof! Poof! Poof!"

They shot four arrows simultaneously once more, but none of them even managed to hurt a hair of Zen.

"I'm going to kill him with my own hands," Tyler yelled with a murderous look, and then drew out a saber from his waist.
