âThis isâ¦â
âRashomon sanctuary!â
Artemis was imprisoned by the divine steel. She struggled desperately, using all her strength to blast
away the divine steel cage. Unfortunately, although sweeping everything in its way, her power had no
effect on these divine steel.
In fact, she also turned the water blue curved moon around her into a scimitar and slashed fiercely at
the divine steel. All her attacks seemed to hit the void, however. Not even a sound could be made, as
though this divine steel was non-existent.
However, it managed to imprison her body.
At this moment, Artemis finally understood. Her sister, Athena, pretended to lead her into the Sunset
Shrine. She wanted to stand in this position, to get the crystal key.
âDamn..! Damn, Athena, youâre still as cunning as a fox!â
Hence, she gave up on cutting the divine steel.
By this point, she knew very well that she was unable to open the Rashomon sanctuary with her ability.
It was a spatial cage between the real and the unreal. Unfortunately, Artemis was not good at the
spatial domain. Using brute force was simply ineffective.
Athena coughed a few times and vomited a mouthful of blood.
Holding her scepter, she stood up. âArtemis, you will understand me.â
âYou are crazy. You must be crazy,â screamed Artemis.
âYou actually destroyed the flesh of my father to capture me and put on a show? This body of a female
puppet immortal canât withstand your divine power. You wonât be living long.â
Athena laughed. âAs long as youâre safe, it doesnât matter what happens to me.â
âCrazy, insane, psycho!â Artemis shouted frantically.
Athena was known as the goddess of wisdom, and her methods were boundless. So, for the two
thousand years she was trapped in this infernal realm, Artemis was very careful with this sister. This
time, seeing that she was about to die, with her physical body destroyed and perished, the tight strings
in her heart finally loosened, and she picked up the crystal key.
Unexpectedly, it was actually still a checkmate, a situation laid by Athena at the cost of her own life.
âWhy canât you understand? Why canât you understand me?â
âThe previous world is doomed to perish. The undead queen is the future of the earth. The reopening of
the Sanctuary is just around the corner. Donât you want to save your brother?â
âAthena, let go of me. I have a way to make you live again.â
Athena merely shook her head. âAt a time like this, even reopening the sanctuary would be pointless.â
She took a deep breath. Slowly, she stood up.
Her purple hair danced gently. The cracked skin on her body quickly healed up, and her bloody
appearance suddenly turned to the original flawless purple haired beauty she was as if some self-
cleaning supernatural ability had been used.
âYou⦠Cheated again?!â
âAthena, you are but a drama queen. I really doubt anything real is left in that body of yours.â
After seeing this, Artemis was about to explode in a fury.
âLiar, big liar!â
With her intelligence, how could she never keep up with this sister?
Abominable, too abominable.
Athena laughed as she heaved the golden scepter in her hand. A wave of golden divine power swept
out, and she opened her mouth, screaming, âCome back my sacred earth!â
Outside the shrine was Alex, who was playing dead. He had long ago taken the Chaos Bell into the
mind palace, or rather, the Chaos Bell failed to Withstand the temptation of the Chaos Tree. It then ran
away to the mind palace itself.
As for the soul connection between Donovan and the Chaos Bell, it was automatically severed.
What?
As a magic weapon, how could one cut the connection with the master alone? Wasnât this a rebellion?
But, the Chaos Bell was a super powerful existence with self-awareness.
And Artemis was right about one thing, the Chaos Bell was indeed broken. There were several cracks
on it, and not only was it now less effective, but its lifespan was also failing.
