Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

Chapter 655 The Deity Council and the Guild Leader's True Form

Chapter 655 The Deity Council and the Guild Leader's True Form

??Time swiftly passed, and several days went by.

Under Henry's guidance, the followers of the Lord of Competition's religion had temporarily hidden away building materials and mystical items to avoid retaliation in a similar manner by the two deities upon their arrival.

After ensuring everyone was concealed, Henry, accompanied by his woman and Lune, made their way towards the most lavish area of Sinner Level 6.

This region was teeming with temples, with nearly 80% of deities having constructed their sanctuaries within a 100-kilometer radius.

"Are you sure about this? It sounds quite far-fetched. If you were to absorb the faith power of a 2-tier deity, they would surely be driven to madness!"

Lune expressed his hesitation as he looked at one of the buildings.

Henry had already discussed with him the previous day a plan to ambush the 2-tier deity.

The strategy involved Lune holding off the frontline battle while Henry, after determining the identity of the 2-tier deity, would infiltrate his temple to absorb his faith power.

This would serve as a warning to the members of the Deity Council: if they launched an attack on his forces, the faith power stored in the other deities' temples within the council could potentially be absorbed by him.

"I just hope I survive this time. Once the Lord of Competition is fully revived, I'll quickly advance to deity status. Otherwise, this constant feeling of being hunted is unbearable," Lune lamented.

He could have advanced to deity status long ago, but because reviving the Lord of Competition required him to complete certain tasks as a regular awakener, he had been waiting for thousands of years without making the transition.

As the two were conversing, suddenly a meteor appeared in the sky.

Lune's expression instantly tensed as he watched the two meteors and slowly said, "They're here."

In the Sinner Level 6 region, two deities arrived as planned.

Observing the numerous religious buildings around, the ancestor of the Monks family couldn't help but want to slap himself.

Why had he built his temple so remotely?

Had it been in this bustling core area, surrounded by so many temples, his own might have remained unscathed.

"Henry and Lune, I will tear you to pieces to vent the hatred in my heart."

Having lost his faith power, the ancestor of the Monks family temporarily lost the hope of advancing and had to continue living in the form of a 1-tier deity for thousands of years, only after accumulating a significant amount of faith power could he consider breaking through.

This thought left the ancestor of the Monks family in despair. Why had he sought out Henry for a treasure-hunting beast in the first place?

Not only did he not get it in the end, but he also lost all his faith power.

However, this time there was at least a chance for revenge.

The ancestor of the Monks family respectfully turned to the 2-tier deity behind him and bowed, speaking with great deference, "My lord, ahead lies the core area of Sinner Level 6. My scouts here have informed me that Henry and Lune recently instructed the ordinary followers of the Lord of Competition to hide. The two of them have infiltrated this area."

The 2-tier deity nodded, then said, "I'm quite familiar with this place too; my temple is built here."

"Although the guild leader of the Deity Council has asked you to support me, I have decided that it would be best for you to take command this time, and I will obediently follow," said the ancestor of the Monks family with utmost respect.

He was aware of the gap between himself and a 2-tier deity and did not want to provoke the latter.

Moreover, he was here to seek justice for himself.

It did not matter who took charge, as long as Henry and Lune could be eliminated in the end.

To his surprise, the 2-tier deity's lips curled into a thought-provoking smile, "No need to be so formal. The speaker said that you and I are like old friends who have served him well; there's no need to distinguish between higher and lower statuses. Let's just interact as friends."

This 2-tier deity, somewhat deliberately, revealed a black tattoo on his right arm.

The ancestor of the Monks family looked and saw that the tattoo was of a ferocious demon.

A demon force?

Someone from Mr. A's group?

The ancestor of the Monks family quickly looked up at the deity, somewhat surprised, "You are one of Mr. A's people, so that means the speaker is..."

The 2-tier deity nodded, slowly saying, "That's right, you guessed correctly. The speaker of the Deity Council is indeed Mr. A."

Although he had been prepared, hearing this news still shocked the ancestor of the Monks family.

The guild leader of the Deity Council, the highest ruler of the Sinners' Domain at present, was actually Mr. A.

"Perhaps you've also heard the news that thousands of years ago, Mr. A stole part of the Authority from the lord of demons, and then drove the dying lord from the abyss into the Sinners' Domain."

"Don't you find it strange? For a deity to infiltrate another plane, it usually requires a severe price to be paid, yet Mr. A and the lord of demons did it with ease," said the 2-tier deity, his smile deepening thoughtfully.

"But why?" the ancestor of the Monks family inquired with some confusion.

"That's because Mr. A and the demon lord discovered a dungeon passageway during their chase, a channel that primarily linked the Abyss to the realm of sinners as a secondary route.

Beings from the Abyss could directly enter the realm of sinners through this passageway!"

Thus, over time, Mr. A gradually took control of most of the realm of sinners, emerging as a mysterious figure among the many deities.

Leveraging his formidable power, he successfully claimed the position of the guild leader of the Deity Council.

My goodness, the worldview of the Monks family's ancestor felt like it was being turned upside down.

He had never felt such a mix of awe and fear before.

Although he had cooperated with Mr. A in the past, he had always thought Mr. A was in the Abyss and thus no threat to him, which gave him the confidence to make those deals.

But now, everything had changed. Mr. A was right by his side, having transformed into his superior leader.

No wonder Mr. A had reprimanded those deities close to the Lord of Competition in the Deity Council previously, while he had shown considerable regard for him, even assigning him to command a 2-tier deity.

It was all because Mr. A had already considered him as part of his faction.

At this moment, the ancestor of the Monks family didn't know what to feel.

"Rest assured, with Mr. A's true form in the realm of sinners, the Lord of Competition won't be able to cause much trouble. Mr. A himself will come to put an end to any attempts at resurrection by the Lord of Competition. After that, the realm of sinners will belong solely to Mr. A."

Filled with excitement, the ancestor of the Monks family bowed respectfully to the 2-tier deity and said, "Truly worthy of Mr. A, his strategies are unmatched in this world."

"Now, let's not forget the task Mr. A has entrusted us with. We still have a few ants to crush."

The 2-tier deity looked down coldly, using his authority to quickly locate Henry and Lune.

With that, he charged downwards, followed closely by the ancestor of the Monks family.

Soon, the deity appeared before Henry and Lune.

Realizing the situation, Henry quickly donned his Thunder Dragon glasses.

"Name: Rellpath"

"Rank: Deity 2-tier"

"Race: War Clan (marked with demon brands, serving demons)"

"Authority: War"

"Equipment: Darkmoon Battleaxe, Shock Scythe"

"Abilities: Rellpath is a defector from the War God's temple, having taken several of the War God's items with him. These items greatly augment his powers when in his possession. Furthermore, Rellpath inherits the War God's bloodline, possessing a unique battle charge that allows him to significantly boost his combat spirit in a short period."

"Weakness: Although Rellpath is a 2-tier deity, all his possessions are related to the War God. Having betrayed the War God, Rellpath is cursed. During combat, the War God steals a portion of his attack power (50-60 points) every 15 seconds."

Finally, your identity is revealed.

Henry smiled. He had already discovered Rellpath's temple during a previous investigation.

It was only 5 kilometers away.

If Henry could somehow infiltrate the temple and steal Rellpath's faith power, the latter would immediately plunge into chaos, giving Henry and Lune a significant advantage.

Worst case, Rellpath might go mad like the God of Tree, or even fall on the spot.

And the rewards for killing a deity...

Henry felt a surge of motivation.

However, all this depended on Lune, with his level 99 stature, holding off the assault of two deities.

Thinking this, Henry couldn't help but look sympathetically at Lune's emaciated form.

Seeing the calm and self-assured confidence on the other's face, Henry sighed.
