269: Ekhor is such a great leader!

“What’s going on?!”

“Is space about to collapse?!”

“Did the Ignorance Faction discover our location?!”

“Look, everyone! Something’s happening over there!”

“Brothers, grab your weapons! Let’s go!”

The collision of lightning and spatial energy caused spatial tremors, throwing the entire town into chaos. People grabbed their weapons and rushed towards the explosion.

When they arrived and saw the situation, everyone’s eyes widened, their mouths agape as if they could fit an egg, standing dumbfounded on the spot.

Two strangers stood there, while their leader, Eckhart, lay on the ground, charred black, smoking, and motionless.

“Leader… he’s dead?”

Someone spoke sorrowfully, the words like the final straw that broke the camel’s back. Swords clattered to the ground one after another, making crisp sounds.

Eckhart could be said to be their spiritual leader.

Only his spatial magic could lead them to move around, evading the pursuit of the World God and the Ignorance Faction, making him the core figure of the entire True Sight Sect.

With him dead, the True Sight Sect had no more ability to resist or contend!

All talk of seeking the truth and changing the outcome turned into empty words!

At this moment, they didn't even have thoughts of revenge, only utter despair.

There is no greater sorrow than a dead heart.

For a moment, whimpers and sobs faintly emerged from the crowd, who then turned and left disconsolately...

The crowd dispersed, leaving only Sabei standing there in a daze.

He had thought that Elder Chen and Laji would agree to join the True Sight Sect; it seemed he had been overthinking.

Waddling over to Chen Beixuan and Laji, he glanced at the charred corpse on the ground, then silently retreated to the side, not daring to make a sound.

“Hoo—”

Suddenly!

Eckhart’s corpse suddenly opened its mouth wide, taking deep gasps as if he had just experienced suffocation, and actually revived!

Laji and Sabei were startled, but Chen Beixuan’s expression remained normal.

Annihilation Divine Lightning could destroy one's soul, but it could not ignore health lock or invincibility. Eckhart had health lock, which he had known through his Heavenly Eye Technique.

The lightning plasma on the ground flowed slowly, violent yet contained. The words 'Health Lock' kept appearing above Eckhart’s head.

Chen Beixuan stepped forward and kicked him out of the lightning plasma area, then walked over and looked down at him.

Eckhart groaned in pain, his mind clearing considerably. Feeling the shadow looming over him, his eyes filled with terror.

It was too terrifying!

He had never felt death so closely before!

Just one bolt of lightning had brought him to the brink of death. It was unimaginable how strong the other party truly was!

At this moment, he even suspected that the old man in front of him was the Light God in disguise!

“Hoo… hoo…”

Words seemed stuck in his throat, unable to come out, only hoarse gasps.

Chen Beixuan was expressionless, waiting for his health lock duration to end, and spoke calmly.

“To be honest, I admire your courage in fighting against fate, but you were unlucky to meet me. This has nothing to do with hatred; I simply need your ability.”

“Don’t worry, you will live, and I will fulfill your wish for you.”

With that, the health lock duration ended.

Chen Beixuan activated Descent, sent Eckhart away with a punch, and absorbed his soul!

[Ding! You have overleveled and killed a Diamond-level BOSS [Space Controller · Eckhart Lv170], gaining 384,750 (4.5x) experience points!]

“Spirit Resurrection!”

He deactivated Descent, then used the skill to summon Eckhart!

Chaos energy quickly gathered, and the figure gradually became clear.

“My Lord, please command!”

A blue-haired Eckhart respectfully knelt before him.

Laji and Sabei behind him were stunned by this scene. Was this even possible?

How was this any different from a Creator God!

“Take us out and go to the temple.”

“Yes.”

Eckhart rose, about to cast a spell, but then he saw the distant town and the church members within it, like walking corpses.

He decisively knelt down again and pleaded.

“My Lord, your humble subordinate wishes to ask you to save the True Sight Sect church members, just as you saved me, and bring them liberation.”

“Hmm… I agree.”

Free experience soldiers, why not take them? Chen Beixuan did not refuse.

It was nothing more than a little time.

It had to be said, Eckhart was truly a good leader; even as a spirit, he still thought of his subordinates.

He summoned the Myriad Realms Kun and said to Laji and Sabei, “You two go in first, lest you get hurt.”

The two, not bothering with their shock, obediently entered the Back World.

Putting away the Myriad Realms Kun, Chen Beixuan looked at the town, his eyes flickering, and summoned the God-Fiend Record.

“Reincarnation - Black Flame Nether Domain!”

The God-Fiend Record shone brightly, and the Black Flame Underworld Domain instantly unfolded. Black Flame enveloped the town, and large amounts of damage floated up!

-702,169,776, -702,169,776, ......

After the God-Fiend Record’s skill effect was doubled, while the damage was high, the range also doubled.

The church members in the town were all instantly killed, almost without pain, their grayish souls being absorbed into the Underworld Domain.

Kill notifications rang frequently, but the experience gained was very little.

Most were civilians below level 100.

Thinking about it, it was quite normal. God Race Warriors were high and mighty, enjoying power, and would not easily betray.

Even if they knew the world was about to end, they would likely choose to live for the moment rather than fight against fate.

Conversely, it was the lower-level God Race who believed in the Light God who, upon learning the truth, would feel their faith collapse and be more likely to join the rebels.

He couldn’t waste the experience, so he directly summoned the Violet Firmament Divine Dragon and the Eternal Black Tortoise to absorb the experience.

There were many such strongholds.

After dealing with the town, Eckhart immediately took him to the next space without stopping, continuing to save the lost souls.

......

At the same time.

Thousands of miles away, at the highest levels of the temple.

A figure shrouded in holy light, whose face could not be seen, suddenly appeared in the room of the God Lord.

And the God Lord, Suolunsi Shiwo, was half-kneeling on the ground, head bowed, awaiting orders.

“How is the matter of genesis progressing?”

A vast, holy voice, as if drifting through the cosmic starry sky, echoed in the room, causing one’s mind to instinctively waver.

Sorens slightly composed himself and replied, “Reporting to the Light God, genesis seems to have fallen into the hands of the new Chaos Mage’s relatives, and its exact location cannot be found for now, so…”

“Hmph, useless!”

The Light God snorted, his tone displeased.

“You can’t even handle a small matter. What use are you? Do I have to go myself?”

“And the True Sight Sect, you still haven’t dealt with them. I think you are truly regressing!”

Sorens remained silent, enduring it, not daring to speak.

After cursing a bit, the Light God’s anger subsided somewhat, and he thought for a moment before saying.

“I will make an exception this time and tell you the location of genesis. Pasier has gone to the Human Realm, so let him retrieve it. There must be no more mistakes!”

Upon hearing this, Sorens hesitated for a moment, then looked up and tentatively said.

“But… what if the Chaos Mage comes looking for it…”

The Light God let out an 'hmm,' his voice cold, “Are you questioning my decision?”

“…I wouldn’t dare.”

Sorens lowered his head.

“Mind your status. If there’s a next time…”

The Light God snorted, full of warning, and disappeared from the room along with the holy light.

The location information of genesis automatically entered his mind.

Sorens let out a long breath and stood up.

After a while, he summoned his God Race Warrior guards.

“Initiate cross-realm transmission and notify Pasier.”

“genesis’s location is the northern suburbs of Winter Holy City. The target is a girl. He must bring her back!”

“Yes!”
