With a starting talent that's practically top-tier, even an old man can go against the heavens!

Clang!

The Divine Sword fell to the ground, and Sorens knelt down with a thud, slowly collapsing as if relieved. An object fell from his arms, radiating a dazzling light.

[Ding! You have defeated [Lord of the Temple of Light, Sorens Schwarz (lv195)], gaining experience...]

Upon seeing this, Chen Beixuan quickly unleashed his Netherworld Domain, burning the corpse while simultaneously absorbing its soul.

Only then did he leisurely step forward to pick up the fallen items.

[You have obtained the golden equipment [Divine Sword]!]

[You have obtained the Brilliant-grade item [Mysterious Compass Fragment]!]

More fragments?

Including this one, he now possesses a total of four, acquired from the human realm, the demon realm, the dark realm, and the divine realm.

The remaining two pieces... if nothing unexpected happens, should be in the Demon Realm and the Elf Realm.

Looks like I'll have to make some time to go and look for it.

Take back your thoughts,

He was about to put it in his backpack when he suddenly noticed that this piece of fragment was different from the previous ones.

Turn it over and take a closer look.

To my surprise, I found a rough crayon drawing pasted on the back of the fragment.

The drawing has a kindergarten-level line drawing style. There is a half sun in the upper right corner, and below it, a family of three is holding hands and standing on the grass. The smiles drawn by the lines are on the three round heads. The whole picture is warm and touching.

The yellowed paper... the edges gleaming black from years of handling indicates the item is quite old, and that its owner cherished it greatly, frequently taking it out to touch and reminisce...

Chen Beixuan was deeply moved.

It fell from Sorens's body...that means...

The drawing above depicts... Raki's family of three, and it is highly likely that it was drawn by Raki when he was a child.

"hiss..."

He gasped, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

what is this.

Is Sorens actually a good person?

But since the killing has already happened, it's too late to regret it now.

Life is unpredictable; who could have foreseen it?

Fortunately, he absorbed Sorens's soul in time, so he wasn't truly dead yet.

Apart from his loyalty to him, the heroic spirit retains all his previous behaviors and habits, including his memories and emotions.

Why he doesn't acknowledge Raki, and what unspeakable reason he has, will be clear once you ask.

Thinking of this,

Chen Beixuan immediately cast a spell to revive the heroic spirit and bring back Sorens!

In an instant.

Countless chaotic energies converged from all directions, gradually forming a human figure. After a while, Sorens slowly opened his eyes, looking around somewhat blankly.

Upon seeing Chen Beixuan, he immediately knelt down.

He said respectfully, "My lord."

Seeing his posture, Chen Beixuan felt a headache coming on and gave an order.

"From now on, you don't need to bow to me or call me 'Lord,' especially in front of Raki."

"clear."

Upon hearing the word 'Raki,' Sorens' eyes flickered slightly, and he obediently stood up.

"I ask, you answer."

Chen Beixuan stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and then asked the first question.

"Why did you sever ties with Raki? Is there some unspeakable reason?"

Upon hearing this, Sorens instinctively prepared to reply, but suddenly hesitated, his expression twitching.

The instinct to obey and one's own thoughts are engaged in a fierce battle, just like in Soul 11 ​​back then.

A few seconds later, he respectfully lowered his head and spoke.

"It's...to protect him."

"I don't want him to become the next god-king; I only hope he can live happily forever..."

Before Chen Beixuan could ask, Sorens took the initiative to explain the reason.

“Becoming a god means obeying the destiny brought by prophecy, and that destiny is death, perhaps tomorrow, perhaps ten thousand years later. So I want to cut off the possibility of Raki inheriting the throne from the root, and I don’t want him to bear this heavy shackle.”

"The prophecy... is it the one related to the Divine Demon Sword?" Chen Beixuan raised an eyebrow.

Sorens was indeed a good man with his own reasons, but was this prophecy really that important? Did it have to be obeyed?

"That's right. When the Divine Demon Sword is drawn, the Divine Realm perishes, and everything will come to an end. This is a prophecy that has existed since the birth of the Divine Realm, passed down by successive Light..."

boom--

Before Sorens could finish speaking, a beam of golden light suddenly pierced through the top of the room!

Undeterred, it struck Sorens, who was speaking, in an instant, penetrating him from top to bottom!

True damage - 37512420009!

The massive damage of 375 billion instantly emptied his health bar, and Sorens exploded with a bang, turning into chaotic energy that drifted away.

The moment Chen Beixuan exploded on the roof, he had already set off and appeared above the temple tower!

Above the sky, a golden spatial rift was rapidly shrinking.

Without hesitation, he hurled hundreds of exploding spears at the crack, sending them hurtling away!

There were no targets displayed within the attack range, nor were there any BOSS icons or health bars; the opponent's attack methods were very covert.

It can only fire a large number of spears, hoping to automatically lock onto the target.

Unfortunately, the spear was ultimately a step too slow.

0.03 seconds before they were about to enter the crevice, the crevice completely disappeared, the spears missed their target and scattered, automatically searching for the nearest monster.

Without even thinking, he knew that the person who made the move must be a World God, and most likely a World God of Light.

A 15-star Heroic Spirit is resurrected, providing a 150% bonus to all attributes.

Sorens' strength is similar to that of Pasil, and with the added boost, his health exceeds 300 billion.

The only person besides him who could instantly kill Sorens, who has 300 billion HP, is probably a World God.

The last sentence was clearly related to the word "light" and must have touched a taboo, so I had to intervene and stop Sorens from continuing.

But this behavior only made him more curious.

Chen Beixuan withdrew his gaze, returned to the ground, and used his mana to summon Sorens again.

"You go on."

"Yes."

As Chen Beixuan listened to Sorens's account, he kept a watchful eye on his surroundings.

The attack was sudden, and I was a step too slow to react.

Now that we're on guard, if they dare to make another move... that's like going to the toilet with a lantern – courting death!

......

A place of nothingness.

Three figures gathered together.

A demon god surrounded by blood mist, a dark god shrouded in deathly aura, and finally, a god of light enveloped in golden light!

At this moment, the demon god couldn't help but say in a deep voice, "You shouldn't have made that move."

The God of Light remained unconcerned and sneered, "If we don't make a move, are we just going to let that fool keep talking?"

"Hehehe... This matter couldn't be kept secret for long anyway. The Chaos Mage would find out one day. If you don't want him to talk about it, why not eliminate the people in the know beforehand? Don't think we don't know what you're up to."

The Dark God chimed in menacingly, his laughter grating and unpleasant.

Seeing that his thoughts had been exposed, the God of Light readily admitted it.

"Hehe, the strange thing about human nature is that the more you forbid someone from doing something, the more curious they become and the more they want to do it."

"That fool has limited information, but he will lure the Chaos Mage to explore like honey. Only in this way can our plan proceed smoothly."

There was a moment of silence when the plan was brought up.

"Without the Elf God and the Demon God, are you confident in your ability to fight back with just the three of us?" the Demon God asked with slight concern.

The God of Light turned around, glanced at him lightly, and said calmly, "As long as the Chaos Mage doesn't become a god, I have absolute confidence that you know how big the difference is between gods and humans."

He snapped out of his daze, looked at the monitoring screen, where Chen Beixuan's image was displayed, and earnestly assured it.

"Don't worry, once the plan succeeds, I won't treat you two unfairly."

"Then... what about the Wanderer? What will happen to him?" the Dark God suddenly asked.

......
