Apotheosis

How many people in the Central Region dared to confront Eddie?

Even Zen wasn't willing to face Eddie. He would be a fool if he messed with a warrior at the Life and Death Realm for no reason at all.

However, Zen had no other choice. Ever since Eddie had taken Yan away, the fight between him and Eddie had escalated to the point where there was now no room for compromise.

And so, when Zen encountered Eddie, he couldn't help but utter those words. Since begging was useless and he had to rely on his own fists to save Yan, he might as well fight to the death.

Perhaps, this was Zen's way of cultivation.

After Eddie left, the story of the Cloud Hall's sect-protecting array spread throughout the Central Region.

A sect-protecting array actually completely withstood Eddie's attack, and it even had the chance to kill him. This was simply unimaginable.

What did this mean? This meant that in the Central Region, there was no sect or warrior that could put the Cloud Hall at risk. If there was a sect war, the Cloud Hall's losses would be the smallest. At this moment, the Cloud Hall could already be considered a fifth-grade sect.

A runic expert had changed the fate of a fourth-grade sect. It looked like Zen was destined to go down memorably in the history of the Central Region. At the very least, everyone was now certain that Zen's achievements in the area of runes were much greater than that of Arnold.

In the following days, everyone in the Central Region would talk about Zen and the Cloud Hall's sect-protecting array.

"This time, Zen will become a hot topic for all every sect in the Central Region!"

"Haw-haw! Everyone in the Runic Tower was arrogant before. Now that we know Zen is skillful in runes, will he be more arrogant than the people from the Runic Tower?"

"Although Zen's runic skills are powerful, Eddie is not someone to be trifled with. Once Zen leaves the Cloud Hall, he will die without the protection of the sect-protecting array!"

It looked like people were discussing Zen everywhere. This conversation happened in a bustling restaurant.

Suddenly, a tall warrior slapped the table and laughed. "That may not be so! Zen's talent can't be underestimated. As a warrior at the Illuminating Soul Realm, he could defeat a warrior at the middle stage of the Internal Elixir Realm. Didn't you hear what he said to the Evil East Lord? 'I'll spare your life!' Haw-haw! How much courage does it take to say that?"

"He's just hiding in that little turtle shell and playing around. If it weren't for the protection of the sect-protecting array, Eddie's finger would have crushed him," another gloomy voice retorted.

"So what?

of the World Commercial Alliance."

Hobbes looked surprised. "You mean, the ninth enchanted lamp..."

The Ancient Tycoon nodded and said, "That's right, I've calculated it once, and I have a strong premonition that the ninth enchanted lamp has already appeared. It's just that I don't know who has it, which is why I asked you to send out the invitations and urge them to light it as soon as possible!"

"Then let's hurry up!" Hobbes was a short-tempered man. He stood up and lightly patted the enchanted lamp. A flame shot out and ignited it. A seventh mark appeared on the enchanted lamp.

The taciturn Haber nodded and said, "It's quite fast this year. The eighth mark had lit up at midnight last year. I had almost thought that the person with the eighth enchanted lamp had given up!"

"Hopefully, we can make it. I'll go gather the elders," Dillon said with a smile as he looked at the marks on the lamp.

On a small island in the endless South Sea, Eddie also took out his enchanted lamp and studied it closely. He had already made preparations for this trip to the Immortal Mist's celestial tomb.

He sat at the top of a big tree on the island, and around the trunk were six cloaked warriors. These were powerful warriors at the middle and late stage of the Virtual Tribulation Realm, and they were all willing to follow Eddie until their deaths to help him establish his divine kingdom.

Eddie had to bring them along on the journey to the Immortal Mist's celestial tomb.

However, Eddie wasn't sure if the final enchanted lamp would be lit. He focused on lighting up his own small enchanted lamp, and the eighth mark lit up as well.

Eddie looked at the faint yellow mark on the small lamp, and mumbled, "I wonder if the last mark will light up this evening."
