Apotheosis

Zen could trace hints of doubts in the faces of Athemar, Goran and others when he told them about the Truth Enlightenment.

They also wanted to acquire all of the Truth Enlightenment, but they didn't want to force Zen by using the method of soul searching.

Since Zen said he only had one hundred and fifty words, they believed what he said.

But the Vastness Mountain people were different. The woman in red insisted on the complete version, and they didn't believe Zen when he said he had only deciphered one hundred and fifty words.

She had been preparing even before Zen's arrival.

"Have you made up your mind? Do you want to write the complete chapter down yourself or do you need us to use force?" She stared at Zen with ice cold eyes.

Zen's brows furrowed as he remarked, "I only have one hundred and fifty words. It will take me years before I could decipher the whole thing. Even if I do, I will only give it to Eastern Emperor Taiyi and he will be the one to share it with the whole Oneness Sky Palace. You don't think he won't give it to the Vastness Mountain, do you?"

He wondered why the woman was in such a hurry.

The woman ignored Zen. She swiftly turned to the man in black. "Arjun, do it!" she ordered.

The man ran straight to Zen, and the green hand above his head charged towards him too.

How could Zen agree?

He had plenty of secrets, not just the Truth Enlightenment.

His secrets included the Chaos Ancient God, the divine land, Geoffrey's talent in deciphering the Sanskrit words, the Nine Li race and so on.

He would bring these secrets with him to his grave.

Bang!

Zen kicked the floor and abruptly flew backward.

When he moved less than ten feet, the woman waved her hand gently. Suddenly, Zen was back where he had been.

Bang!

Zen attempted to flee again.

The trick repeated itself. Zen would barely reach ten feet before he found himself back on the floor.

Zen felt like there was an invisible force aroun

assed out and collapsed to the floor.

Zen recovered to his normal state. When he saw Arjun lying on the floor, he let out a genuine gasp. "No. 9527, what did you do?" he asked in his mind.

Arjun's soul was much stronger than Zen's. Even if No. 9527 was a wisp of Chaos Ancient God's soul, it would take a whole lot of effort to cause Arjun to suffer that much.

"I didn't do anything special. He likes searching people's souls, right? So I simply overwhelmed him with countless memories. His soul wasn't able to handle so many," No. 9527 said with a chuckle.

At first, it resembled the Chaos Ancient God in character. Now, since it had been with Zen for a long time, its own self-consciousness had evolved. It started to gain unique character traits. The Chaos Ancient God himself would never use such a little trick.

The memory fragments were a trap arranged by No. 9527 on purpose. It wanted to fool Arjun into thinking there was important information in the fragments.

The memory fragments covered a long timeline. No. 9527 made sure to include memories of the birth of chaos. Apart from the overwhelming quantity, the memories were also useless for humans as they did not have the ability to interpret them anyway.

A human's feeble attempt to interpret them would cause immense pain to their soul.
