Chapter 1887: Chapter 1887: Fall

Not even a second later, Zen looked down and gently tapped the side of a snowy mountain peak with the tip of his finger.

The snow on the peak disappeared in the blink of an eye, revealing the dark cyan rock wall hidden beneath.

Zen waved his hand, and the peak, which was already well over ten thousand feet high, began to float in the air. Under Zen's control, the enormous peak crackled in movement. For a moment, dust billowed all around and stones flew into the air...

As he watched this scene, the Evil God also secretly felt quite shocked.

With the Evil God's power, destroying an entire mountain with a height of ten thousand feet was a breeze. On the other hand, grabbing a mountain of this size and remolding it at will like what the Creator had done was impossible for him to achieve.

It didn't take long before the huge peak turned into enormous stones, each a hundred feet in size. At that very moment, Zen closed his eyes, and an invisible force spread out from his body. He was an omnipotent existence in this world, and thus, nothing could stop him.

As the invisible force swept over, the surfaces of all the giant stones turned into fine powder that blew away in the wind.

When all the powder was gone, the giant stones turned into giant statues of Zen's image that floated in the air.

“I will distribute these one hundred statues to every corner of this world, and you will complete the rest.” Once Zen had finished speaking, his figure once again weirdly disappeared into the air, along with the one hundred statues that had covered both the sky and the sun.

Moments later, Zen appeared in the Emerald Pine City, which was over a thousand miles away from the snow mountain.

As Zen floated strangely in the air, he didn't trigger any of the city's restrictions. He did however, attract the attention of many people. Several warriors looked at him and speculated about his identity.

As the onlookers watched him, Zen waved his hand.

Boom!

A huge statue landed in the open space of the Emerald Pine City. The entire city trembled as Zen disappeared in front of everyone, never even taking a second glance behind him.

As soon as Zen's statue landed, it seemed to have connected itself to the entire city, and at the same time, it exuded an irresistible majestic aura. It was as if this statue was above all living beings!

“This, this is the statue of God!” someone shouted.

“It's the Creator's statue...” someone else replied.

“This statue will be, from this moment on, the Emerald Pine City's sacred object. No one is allowed to offend it!”

Every warrior standing within the open space knelt down and worshiped Zen's statue. The statue itself also emitted a sacred and inviolable aura. Under the cover of this aura, no one could approach the statue. A single glance at it would make people feel irresistibly amazed, which was a creature's instinctive reaction.

Sky Luck City...

Boom!

Unexpectedly, Zen's statue fell on Sky Luck City's central square!

The Grace Sacred Place was next.

Bang!

One by one, Zen placed his statues in all the major cities and sacred places of this world.

After finishing the arrangement, Zen's avatar turned into a stream of chaotic energy and quietly disappeared somewhere in the world.

It was then that the Evil God gathered all the powerful warriors in the world and announced the secret sect's establishment.

The vast majority of the leaders of various sacred places generally didn't like the secret sect. After all, the leaders were the supreme rulers of the sacred places. Accepting this secret sect was equivalent to giving up on a certain amount of their power. R𝙖ℕ𝖔ꞖƐꞨ

However, despite the fact that the Evil God had gone into seclusion for countless years, he still had absolute power in this world. No one dared disobey him, not in the least.

Moreover, the Evil God worked for this world's “Creator”. Who could dare neglect his order?

Before long...

Countless branches of the secret sect were arranged across all the cities of this world.

Both mortals and warriors were to worship Zen's statue and contribute their faith.

Faith Energy continuously merged into Zen's Godly Tile, as well.

As soon as Laquisha had defeated the anonymous man and gained the additional points, people began spreading rumors, convinced that this anonymous man was from the Han Clan.

The Qin Clan, which ranked below the Han Clan, and the Tang Clan which ranked above the Han Clan, were both helpless. The result of the Floating Islands' rankings was about to be released, and nearly all the warriors of the Han Clan had participated in at least three matches this month. In other words, they had no chances of defeating the Han Clan.

As for Laquisha, after obtaining the high points from the anonymous man, she would not go back to the Arena of Legends again.

Two days later, the wind continued blowing.

Across the Time Sea, the gusts of wind became stronger and stronger. The magnificent seawater began to turmoil and turned into waves that rolled out on the sea.

Occasionally, a few strange fish popped out of the sea's surface. The creatures wandering in the time fragments had the magical power of protecting themselves from the Time Sea's tearing power.

The increasingly strong wind worked like a pair of chopsticks that got into the muddy water, continuously stirring the thick clouds. The thick clouds acted like huge spirals, circling in the sky above the entire Time Sea.

At the edge of the Purple Soul Hall stood a viewing deck where many female disciples gathered. Right now, they all looked somewhat gaunt.

Over the past few months, in order to obtain points, they had tried their best to fight in the Arena of Legends. However, their strength was limited, and so were the points they received.

Only a few days ago, the Purple Soul Hall had tallied all the points, but they failed to meet their master's requirements. Almost everyone was in despair. According to what Joy had said, most of them would be forced to leave the Han Clan's Floating Island.

Every woman in the Purple Soul Hall was considered the pride of their clan, having entered the center of the divine land and become a disciple of a powerful clan on the Floating Island.

Once expelled from the Floating Island, they could only expect to face an unimaginable nightmare.

What these women hadn't expected though, was that the day before yesterday, news had been received that the princess of the Han Clan, Laquisha, had defeated the anonymous man. This man had taken part in many battles against opponents of a higher level and lost to Laquisha. The princess had earned nearly two million points!

In other words, that was the equivalent to the Han Clan suddenly having one more consummate True God, out of nowhere.

It was this news that pulled the Purple Soul Hall disciples out from the abyss of desperation.

“Do you know who the anonymous man was? A proving godly warrior who could accumulate several million points... How unbelievable! It almost killed me just to accumulate two hundred points,” a woman sighed.

“Ha-Ha! What's important here is that the anonymous man was defeated by the princess, and he lost most of his points to her - points that he had earned through his hard work. I believe that the anonymous man must be very sad!” said another woman, with a smile.

“Think about it, all of you! Why exactly was this anonymous man defeated by the princess? It has been said that this anonymous man is from our Han Clan. He was surely defeated by the princess on purpose!”

“Do you really think that's true?” someone questioned.

“I don't believe it. The princess' strength is extraordinary. She was originally ranked third among the low-rank True Gods. I think it's normal for this anonymous man to be defeated by her!”

As they listened, many women widened their eyes in surprise.

The information that the True Gods and the proving godly warriors at the bottom of the clans could get was rather limited. Now, although the powerful clans were all sure that the anonymous man came from the Han Clan, or more precisely, from the Purple Soul Hall, most of the women in the Purple Soul Hall still weren't aware of the latter.

Zen sat on the edge of the viewing deck and stared out at the boundless Time Sea. As he listened to the various discussions and speculations that rose to his ears, a faint smile spread on his lips. At least, he had helped Joy in keeping the Purple Soul Hall, and he had also become a True God in a rather smooth manner.

Ever since condensing his Godly Tile, he felt that the Faith Energy within his body was becoming stronger and stronger, but he never had the chance to test its strength. Furthermore, he didn't dare enter the Arena of Legends again, especially not at such a sensitive time.

Joy had secretly told him not to act rashly during this period. After the rankings were decided, the Dongfang Clan was very likely to come to the Han Clan in order to take Zen away at any moment, and when that occurred, she too, would be placed under a lot of pressure.

'I wonder how Laquisha is doing these days.' Thinking about how Laquisha had looked that day, Zen felt as though a needle had pierced directly into the softest spot of his heart. Seconds later though, a cold glint flashed across his eyes. 'Forget it. All these distracting thoughts should go away once I enter the Everest Spirit Mountain...' he told himself.

Once the Floating Islands' rankings were decided, the forbidden areas were bound to be opened. As long as he entered the Everest Spirit Mountain, everything would be over, and the pressure from the Dongfang Clan would naturally disappear. Who cared if they ultimately discovered his true identity?

Despite having these thoughts, Zen still felt somewhat uneasy.

“Hey! Thad, you've only been here for a few months and yet you've already proven the Godly Way! You're improving incredibly fast! I'm impressed!” a pretty woman suddenly said.

Zen's admission to the Purple Soul Hall as a man was quite eye-catching and attention grabbing. More so, he broke through to become a True God not long after his admission here, which naturally drew even more interest from certain women.

“I have been staying at the proving godly warrior level for thousands of years now. It was only after I came to the Floating Island that I understood the subtleties of the Purple Soul Hall and overcame the bottleneck, which helped me in becoming a True God,” Zen said with a faint, shy smile.

“Ah, that explains it! You're lucky. Over thirty years have passed since I came to the Purple Soul Hall, but I haven't made any progress,” the woman said, shaking her head in despair.

“There will always be other opportunities. When it comes to cultivating a Godly Way, it's usually the smallest opportunities that make the biggest difference. Trust me, I'm speaking from experience,” Zen said.

“Yeah, you're right.” The woman nodded and suddenly pointed down. “Look,” she said. “The Floating Islands are moving. The ranking process has begun...”

Bang!

With a dull roar, Zen saw the two Floating Islands - one of the Xie Clan and the other of the Liu Clan, which were at the bottom, began to rise slowly. Simultaneously, the Floating Island of the Luo Clan began to descend slowly. So much so, in fact, that it was about to fall into the Time Sea!

“What happened? ”Harold has defeated Rachelle in the open battle and won many points for the Luo Clan, hasn't he? Why is the Floating Island of Luo Clan falling now? How is this possible?" Zen asked in disbelief. Zen's eyes were filled with anxiety and confusion. As the Luo Clan's Floating Island continued falling, his heart couldn't help but sink along with it.
