Chapter 218: Shocking fact

Derik shared his findings with Lucien dumbfounded and since Lucien already knew about the invasion he wasn't too shocked, he was only stunned by the reason for the sudden invasion! Thinking about this, he knew the gods of the new continent will end up using the god's descent ritual to allow themselves to get involved in the war and boost their chances of victory. They were gonna go against gods in the body of mortals! And this explained why the creed leader kept emphasizing the defeat of the continent and how everyone should submit to him if they wish to survive. With the power of the seer on his side, he can gain the tactical advantage in the war, and even after the war, when everyone directs his power of faith to him, his strength will rise at an alarming speed, allowing him to far surpass the level of gods and enter the level of realm protectors! In that realm, the creed leader is sure he will be able to take on the gods of the other world alone.

"If we follow his plan, he definitely won't share power...He will kill us and consume us to gain his powers and he will most likely kill the weakened gods, consume their powers and elevate their strength to reach the same level as the celestial beings... A nice plan but I don't trust him... I won't put the fate of my family in the hand of a psychopath" Derik said and Lucien nodded in agreement.

While Derik may not have said it, he believed the god descent statue they just fought us nothing compared to the real thing. He strongly believed that the Creed can see more than the future! His power as a seeker is so overpowered, that's why he believes he should be the sole god in this world and realm!

Thinking about this, Derik entertained the thoughts of consuming this man and gaining the power of this man. He could further improve his abilities and reach a level where he can truly be invincible! While they walked down the stairs Derik considered his next sort of actions and what kind of martial technique to develop and follow. He knew a lot about the various martial techniques in this world and honestly, he didn't find any of them interesting or special. He knew something about the world right now and he couldn't help but say that the current pathways are nothing special. The God of death in this world Dakar is just a mage with shadow magic and his combat technique allowed him to solidify his shadow! Just like that, other combat techniques improve one's abilities by little means, like that one that returns a man to his peak condition and this martial technique is only useful when you and your opponent are old!

He currently had enough souls stored in his body to force a direct breakthrough into the spirit realm, where he can form his Martina technique.

"I think, at the point, Blake can be used as the best example" Derik muttered to himself as he shut his eyes tight while walking down the crystal stairs.

He slowly opened his eyes to see the bottom of the stairs and three figures standing there. While one was dressed in a golden sleeveless robe the other two were dressed in white robes.

"We have visitors" The golden-robed man said with a smile as he looked towards the stairs.

He had bright gray hair with a perfect set of white teeth and slightly pale skin. Judging based on his demeanor one would assume he is a nice person but Derik could see his rotting soul concealing his evil intentions. The other two behind him wore white masks and gloves, preventing people from seeing any part of their bodies.

"CREED" Derik called out calmly as they reached the foot of the stairs but he wasn't on guard like Lucien, he looked rather calm.

"I know the Emperor of Fotia... He killed my brother... But you I do not know" The man in the golden robe laughed lightly as he spoke making Lucien frown but Derik showed no emotions.

He just glanced around and yawned before walking past them. Ignoring their questions Derik walked past them and towards the massive door at the other end of the room. He touched the door calmly and patiently gazed at the pictures on the door.

Meanwhile, Lucien stood with the azure blue dragon spear in his hands and with a tightened grip his leaned forward as if he was about to pounce on the enemy.

"You killed my brother... I am curious to know how he lost within his anomaly to a warrior realm child?" The creed pillar said with a kind smile on his face, making Lucien hiss at the enemy.

Hearing this Lucien frowned! The fact that this Creed pillar didn't know how his brother died meant that the Creed leader is not open about everything. If this person knew the Creed leader is the one responsible for his brother's death, would he still fight for the Creed?

"Don't be stupid... What makes you think a warrior realm child can defeat a champion realm master in his anomaly?" Lucien said and the man in golden robes stopped smiling. His face twisted a bit in unnatural ways as he considered what Lucien said and found it reasonable.

A champion realm master is not someone that can be killed by a kid, especially one at the warrior realm.

"Tell me what happened" The man was no longer smiling and he asked coldly.

Meanwhile, Derik was paying attention to the massive wall and he couldn't help but frown. He ignored Lucien who narrated the story of how he was defeated by the champion realm master and how he managed to survive due to the Creed leader's intervention. He told the creed pillar about the offer made to him by the leader of the creed organization and what happened when he escaped the illusion and how he finished off the enemy in a bid to escape the crumbling anomaly.
