Apotheosis

The soul crystal was so precious, and one had to pay a huge price to get their hands on one.

Zen didn't answer the question. Instead, he asked, "What kind of an opportunity are you talking about?"

Konnor smiled as he said, "The Seven Mountains Meeting."

"The Seven Mountains Meeting?"

"Yes," said Konnor. "The Seven Mountains Meeting is held every three years. The elites of the seven mountains: the Oneness Mountain, Vastness Mountain, Bright Mountain, Azure Mountain, Ivory Mountain, Origin Mountain, and the Golden Mountain, will gather together in the event."

After the Oneness Sky Palace had been established, there had been the famous "Seven Mountains Assembly" that had laid the foundation for the Oneness Sky Palace.

As the Oneness Sky Palace prospered, the elite disciples of the seven mountains began to imitate their predecessors and held a Seven Mountains Meeting. The meeting was originally meant for the most outstanding talents of the Oneness Sky Palace to gather together and communicate with each other.

But as time passed, the content of the meetings became more diversified. The Seven Mountains Meeting later became an occasion for the outstanding talents to compete with each other.

It was slowly but steadily garnering more and more attention from the leaders of the Oneness Sky Palace, who began to fully support the event every time it was held. The rewards were substantial.

The Oneness Sky Palace also took the Seven Mountains Meeting as an opportunity to distribute resources since a competition of this level could motivate the elites of each mountain.

'They said so much just to persuade me to take part in the competition?' Zen thought.

"You have already reached the eighth or ninth stage of the Other Shore Realm and are stronger than me. I'm afraid I won't be able to help if I participate in the Seven Mountains Meeting," Zen said. He was sure that speaking his mind would be for the best.

Zen didn't have a low opinion of himself, but there were indeed some powerful warriors among these elites.

"Zen, listen to me. You don't know that event. The Seven Mountains Meeting is not a competition that's based merely on physical strength. It's a carefully designed game. If one wants to win, what's most important is one's mastery of the Truth of Godly Way," Konnor said.

"The mastery of the Truth of Godly Way?" Zen said, his eye

mined to get the Shade Phoenix Sword!'

But the Oneness Sky Palace was not a place that the small Sword Light Palace could compare to.

A powerful warrior like Milo existed in a sect like the Flow Sword Sect. Zen was afraid that the other mountains had warriors who were superior to Milo.

At this thought, Zen waved his hands and condensed a layer of enchanted barrier. He then opened his palms and a piece of paper spread out before him.

On the paper was the content that had been deciphered from the Sanskrit words on the yellow paper.

He hadn't studied it after Geoffrey had deciphered the two Sanskrit words. On the one hand, he had been focused on practicing Flow Strike, and on the other hand, the content was too difficult to comprehend.

Zen must be prepared, since he was determined to get the Shade Phoenix Sword.

His gaze was focused on the paper before he started to recite according to the rule he found within the paper's content.

Similar to what Geoffrey had encountered when he had recited the words, Zen felt a beam of sharp sword radiance forming in his mind when he began to recite. The sword radiance surged up and rushed to penetrate his soul and skull.

But Zen's Soul of Light was many times stronger than Geoffrey's.

He managed to suppress the sharp sword radiance in his mind.

"Did this sword radiance appear because of the thought in my mind?"

When he studied the content that had been deciphered from the Sanskrit words, Zen suddenly found that it was similar to the Heart Slaughtering Strike that was recorded in the Flow Swordsmanship.
