275: The key to the ancient resurrection ruins, the dumbfounded messenger of God.

“You have obtained Golden Equipment [Demon-Breaking Holy Sword]!”

“You have obtained Special Item [Ancient Revival Ruin Key]!”

The Demon-Breaking Holy Sword had the same attributes as the standard longsword that dropped earlier, so he quickly scanned its stats and threw it into his backpack.

His gaze shifted to the other item, and Chen Beixuan’s eyebrows slightly raised.

This was an old-fashioned key made of golden ore, looking quite ancient.

[Ancient Revival Ruin Key]: Special Item

Description: The key to unlock the Ancient Revival Ruin. To use it, you must first know the location of the Revival Ruin. This key contains rule energy and is guaranteed to drop upon death.

— — — — — —

He guessed that this should be a prerequisite item to open a certain dungeon, similar to the Demon Realm’s Ruin Dungeon from before. He could find time to clear it.

As for the location...

Since it dropped from Pasier, the next time they met, he would bring him into the Underworld and simply ask.

He weighed the key in his hand a couple of times before putting it into his backpack.

Then, with a thought, Xiao Lu appeared before him.

“Grandpa...”

Seeing him again, Xiao Lu still looked sullen.

Chen Beixuan sighed slightly. This child had been heavy-hearted since childhood. She never cried or made a fuss when she suffered, always remaining strong.

But once others were implicated because of her, Xiao Lu would fall into self-blame and internal struggle.

She always liked to find fault with herself.

He took off his smiling mask, squatted down, and earnestly promised her.

“Be good, Xiao Lu, you don’t need to blame yourself. With Grandpa here, I promise no one will ever capture you again.”

“If you feel you’ve implicated Uncle Night Owl and the others, just help them level up and compensate them! What do you say, Xiao Lu?”

Xiao Lu pouted her lower lip, her eyes teary, and she spoke in a small, soft voice: “...They really won’t capture me again...?”

“No, I promise!”

Chen Beixuan extended his pinky finger, smiling as he gestured.

“If you don’t believe me, let’s pinky swear!”

“Okay!”

Xiao Lu wiped away her tears with her sleeve, extended her small finger, and linked it with his.

“Pinky swear... one hundred years no change! Stamp it!”

The large hand and small hand completed the ritual of agreement, and Xiao Lu finally smiled.

“Alright, you go into the Back World first. Grandpa is going to fulfill our promise!”

Chen Beixuan rubbed her little head and then sent her into his small world.

After doing all this, he slowly put away his smile.

He looked around, recalling the scenes from entering the God Realm today, and made a decision in his heart.

...“You like to be arrogant?”

...“Then I’ll make sure you can never be arrogant again.”

The black smiling mask in his hand once again covered his weathered face. At the same moment, the endless Chaos Envoys behind him spread their wings and soared into the sky...

......

God Realm, Reincarnation God Pool.

Immortal mist swirled, moist and ethereal.

Splash, splash —

Pasier stood up from the water, droplets forming lines, flowing down his hair, chin, and into the God Pool, creating ripples on the surface.

Opening his eyes, his expression was uncertain.

He hadn’t been resurrected in a thousand years. Returning here today added a stain to his divine life; it was a complete humiliation!

But...

...What could he do?

Recalling that terrifying, world-shaking divine lightning, he involuntarily held his breath, his heart pounding.

He couldn’t help but feel a surge of lingering fear...

If it weren’t for resurrection, he would have died several times already.

Pasier’s face was grim, cold sweat subtly beaded on his forehead, and he couldn’t help but murmur to himself.

“That guy... is too strong...”

......

Outside the God Pool.

Sandra and the other five divine envoys who had died earlier were silently putting on their equipment. Without exception, all of them looked extremely grim.

“To ambush us in the God Realm, could it be the True Sight Sect?” The Sixth Divine Envoy couldn’t help but guess.

“Oh, please. The True Sight Sect is good at running, but they’re not strong enough.”

The Fourth Divine Envoy held up his longsword, examining and stroking the blade against the light, and continued,

“The opponent could kill us in an instant; it’s definitely not that simple. It’s a pity that it happened so suddenly, and we couldn’t see any information.”

He sharply sheathed his sword, fully equipped, and said casually,

“But it doesn’t matter. Lord Pasier is invincible. The opponent will surely die by his sword, to uphold divine might!”

The other divine envoys deeply agreed, quickening their movements to get dressed, preparing to return and report.

But just then, Sandra, who had been preoccupied, suddenly stood up!

“I remember!”

“It was the Chaos Mage! He ambushed us!”

She had always felt that the sword qi was familiar, and only just now did she finally remember, her emotions stirred, gritting her teeth.

Today’s sword qi seemed several times stronger than yesterday’s, she almost didn’t recognize it!

“...Chaos Mage?”

The other divine envoys were stunned, then scoffed.

“That’s perfect then. Lord Pasier will get what he wanted, and it counts as revenge for us. You died by his hand twice, so you can settle the score all at once.”

“Hmph! How can I be appeased without seeing that old fellow’s death with my own eyes? You simply... er...”

Sandra was about to say that they didn’t understand how much she hated dying twice.

But as soon as she turned her head, she saw a tall figure slowly walking out of the God Pool exit!

Staring at that familiar figure, Sandra’s eyes widened, her heart filled with indescribable shock!

The other divine envoys noticed her abnormality and subconsciously looked back...

The next second.

They all froze!

The air around them seemed to solidify, and the sound of a needle dropping would have been audible.

This lasted for more than ten seconds, until finally, someone managed to squeeze out a trembling voice from their throat.

“Par...sil... Lord...”

Pasier slightly furrowed his brow, walked past them, not looking sideways, and not wanting to explain anything.

He walked expressionlessly to the equipment rack, quickly dressed himself, grabbed his longsword, and strode away...

Throughout the entire process, not one of the other divine envoys dared to make a sound, only watching in silence.

It wasn’t until his figure disappeared at the main entrance that Sandra and the others suddenly snapped back to reality, their faces filled with horror!

Lord Pasier... resurrected?!

Then... that means...

The Chaos Mage is stronger than Lord Pasier?

“Hiss —”

The five of them gasped, feeling chills run down their spines.

If even the mighty Lord Pasier was defeated by the Chaos Mage, who else in the entire God Realm could stop him? Could it be... they needed to ask the Light God to act?

They exchanged glances, looking at each other in dismay.

The Light God’s whereabouts were unpredictable, appearing and disappearing like a ghost.

First, let’s talk about whether he could even be found. Even if he was found, he most likely wouldn’t openly avenge them.

They had vaguely heard about the Five Realms Agreement.

The World Gods kept an eye on each other. Even if the Light God was powerful, he couldn’t fight one against four and ignore the agreement.

“Lord Pasier will definitely go to find the God Lord now. Let’s quickly follow to see what he says. If the God Lord is willing to act, and he and Lord Pasier can fight two against one, perhaps this grudge can still be avenged!”

The Fourth Divine Envoy was the first to stand up and speak, then grabbed his longsword and quickly walked outside.

“Okay!”

The others nodded and followed.

Other than this, they couldn’t think of any better solution; they could only take it one step at a time.
