Apotheosis

It was not until he left the Other Shore that Zen discovered the Blood Spirit Tortoise had projected an illusion of their fight into the Bloom Divine Province.

When he awoke, Pearce and the others gathered around him. Some asked how it went, while others were more concerned about his injuries.

When these powerful warriors of the Oneness Sky Palace had faced Zen in the past, they looked at him as elders looked at the younger generations. But now, there was a reverence within them that only appeared when they looked upon a powerful warrior of the Eternal Realm.

Many disciples in the Land of Sword Grief had already flown over and landed in the Oneness Mountain.

Milo, Chaim and the others were among them, all watching from afar.

Those surrounding Zen were all core figures of the Oneness Sky Palace. The disciples of the Land of Sword Grief were not even permitted to approach him.

"It hasn't been long since Zen left Stage Fourteen of the Other Shore, has it?" Chaim asked as he sighed heartily. He had wondered when Zen would return to Stage Fourteen of the Other Shore, but it turned out he had already reached Stage Thirty-one.

The corners of Milo's mouth twitched slightly at Chaim's words and

his eyes unintentionally fell on Libby. After waking Zen from the Other Shore, Libby had taken a step back from the commotion.

Right now, even a genius like her could do little more than retreat to the side.

She had her back to Milo and her thick straight hair fell on her thin shoulders, looking a little dejected.

Milo was still a junior, but he followed a similar path to Libby.

If the Oneness Sky Palace continued to operate steadily, once Libby left the Land of Sword Grief, Milo would most likely be her replacement and the next promising talent in the land.

But any light they shone was not worth mentioning with Zen around. They were like fireflies competing with the sun, and so Milo understood how Libby felt.

To the southeast of the Dragon Cliff, the endless mountains and forests were shrouded in a poisonous miasma.

Ordinary people, and even powerful warriors of the Other Shore Realm, had no choice but to take necessary precautions when entering the mountains.

But the savage alien races that lived here had adapted to it and most of them were poisonous creatures themselves anyway.

you are!"

In the Oneness Sky Palace, she had already heard that Zen had managed to kill the Blood Spirit Tortoise, in large part due to the so-called Celestial Spear.

With it, he had quadrupled his own strength, meaning he now possessed five to six hundred thousand divine megatons of force.

This was an absolutely astronomical number for Libby.

It meant Zen himself needed to release more than a hundred thousand divine megatons of force. Libby wondered how his body was able to withstand such a terrifying amount.

"We have to fly through the star ring later. Please keep it for me for the time being," requested Zen.

Libby nodded obediently and put the Celestial Spear back into her Sumeru Space.

Before she came to the Other Shore, she had been told several times to try her best to assist Zen.

Deep down, she was unsure of how to feel about this.

She had once been the most promising prospect in the Oneness Sky Palace, and had become a powerful warrior of the Holy Soul Realm after passing through the Soul City. But now, she had become nothing more than Zen's follower and companion, having to serve him and obey his every command.

However, on second thought, she remembered that if it weren't for Zen, she wouldn't have been able to pass the Blooming Jade Stage, let alone the Sanskrit Light Stage.

After climbing to the top of the bone cave, they arrived at the exit.

Outside, on the huge round platform, were many neatly arranged star rings. Beside one of them, waited a powerful human warrior of the Holy Soul Realm.
