The puppet immortals fell to the ground one after another. Many of them didnât even leave corpses
behind.
Often sporting an overbearing attack style, Athena would cause the puppetâs body to explode directly,
leaving behind only the Law Stone in its place.
Thus, more and more Law Stones started to accumulate on the ground. Countless puppet immortals
had already flooded into Sunset Shrine.
Inside the temple, sights of battle, as well as flesh and blood, could be seen everywhere.
***
âMy Lord!â
âWhat on earth is inside this shrine?!â
Outside Sunset Shrine, in a random tunnel, Donovan Orlando and his remaining men were hiding
quietly.
Densely packed, almost like a swarm of ants, there were simply far too many puppet immortals in front
of the shrine. They couldnât really see what was happening inside.
Donovan had lost his four shattered Chaos Beads, so of course, he refused to retreat just like that.
That would just be too big of a loss for him. They hid and adjusted and tended to their injuries to
recover. Then, they scoured the entire Infernal Realm to search for Alex and Neelaâs whereabouts.
The last thing they expected was to find an incredibly majestic shrine and the huge battle that had
broken out.
âIt doesnât matter. No matter whether they live or die inside there, itâs all a good thing. Weâre just here to
reap the benefits in the end. Once theyâre done, thatâs when weâll come out⦠Hmph! Just the amount
of Law Stones from these puppet immortals will rake in massive amounts of money.â
âIn additionâ¦â
Donovan paused and said, âDo you remember what Phaseless said before? The thing he wanted was
called the Jade of Six Paths, right? Hmph⦠He takes me for a fool. He thought I didnât know that the
Brahman Sect used to exist here in ancient times, where a great emperor from the Stoermer sect
sealed it away with three Jade of Six Paths fragments. Then, it became the place we know as the
Infernal Realm.â
âThe Six Eternities, the beginning of all heaven and earth and supreme spiritual tool of the prehistoric
period. Just the fragments alone are a powerful magic weapon.â
âIf I recall correctly, the fragment of the Six Eternities is inside this shrine.â
The face of the old lady who was beside him was filled with longing once she heard this.
Just then, a golden lance pierced through the bodies of countless puppets and broke through the air,
plunging viciously into the ground. It also happened to be right near where Donovan and the others
were hiding.
Clatter!
The bodies of the Puppet Immortals burst into pieces, and seven to eight pieces of different colored
Law Stones clattered to the ground.
The eyes of Donovan and the others were fixed on the golden lance.
âThis⦠This lance is swirling with divine light, and very strong divine powerâ¦â
âThis⦠Could it be a divine weapon?â
Envy instantly filled Donovanâs eyes. He was sure that this lance was not just any ordinary divine
weapon.
Looking around, he saw that no one was looking at this golden lance, and no one was coming to collect
it either. So he immediately jumped out of the pit and rushed over as fast as he could. He grabbed the
lance with one hand, intending to take it for himself.
Howeverâ¦
A voice rang out in Donovanâs heart. âFight, my Holy Saints. Burn your little universe. The gods need
you!â it said.
The compulsion of the goddess!
Donovan was instantly confused. There was a belief that he was willing to die for her, as well as the
courage that suddenly surged up within him. He held the golden lance in one hand and grabbed the
ancient bronze bell from his mind palace.
Ring!
The sound of the bell was vast and powerful, and the universe shone brilliantly. Heaven and earth
seem to pale in comparison, and the universe seemed to sway. Infinite numbers of puppet immortals
were suppressed by the sound of the bell.
As for Donovan, be rushed forward and handed back the golden lance to Athena.
âMy Lord!â
âMy Lord, whatâs wrong?!â
âHas be gone nuts? Why would he run there now and return the lance?!â
Just as the old woman and the others were drowning in anxiety, not knowing what to do, a loud thump
shook the ground.
Athenaâs lance had once again taken away the lives of a dozen puppet immortals and had plunged into
the ground by the old womanâs feet.
âThisâ¦â
âWhatâs going on?â
Some marveled at the sight, while some were at a loss for words. However, the old womanâs hand had
already reached out and grabbed the lance.
