Chapter 779 (2/2)

“Strengthen abilities?” True Lord Qingshan revealed an displeased look. “He’s very arrogant.”

The Chaos Witch explained, “It’s not arrogance but that he doesn’t know how to interact with others. In order to pursue the power of the God of Universal Truth, he blinded himself at the age of ten, destroyed his ears at the age of 12, and plucked out his tongue at the age of 15. At the age of 18, he requested for the Guardian King to seal up his sense of smell and touch as well.

“He did all these so that he could better sense the existence of the God of Universal Truth.

“He is a complete lunatic. The amount of time he spends interacting with other people in a year can be counted in seconds.

“Using the tremors in the air to create a voice and say that one sentence earlier was already his limit.”

Hearing about what this Phenomenal Saint had experienced, True Lord Qingshan could not help but feel shocked. Although he refused to admit it, he knew he himself was a lunatic.

However, this Phenomenal Saint was over ten times crazier than him. To think that in a situation where his five senses were gone—where he had no sense of hearing, sight, smell, touch, and taste—this person could still cultivate and fight. What kind of willpower did the Phenomenal Saint have?

Just the thought of it alone made True Lord Qingshan feel a little terrified.

The Chaos Witch sighed and said, “It’s because of his strong focus that he’s able to obtain the great achievements he has today.

“Within the Church of Universal Truth, he’s the person who has mastered the most Universal Truth Divine Arts, or white magic as you call it.”

…

Three days later, in a small town located to the south of the Empire.

Charlot looked extremely bored as he sat on the streets. He watched the passing merchants, farmers, and Knights with helplessness reflected on his face. ‘To think that I haven’t been able to find them after all this while. Could it be that the two Guardian Kings rushed over here at light speed at the end when the ritual started?

‘But even if that’s the case, they would need to at least leave behind a clone or a subordinate to report the situation to them, right? Otherwise, how could they possibly have received such accurate information?’

However, a short moment later, he broke into a confident smile. ‘But they are Divine level experts after all. It’s already within my expectations that I’m unable to find them. What I’ve been doing over these few days should already have attracted their attention.’

Although he had not found any traces of the Guardian Kings, Charlot had relied on the experience from his previous life to leave behind the secret signs of the Church of Universal Truth in the town so as to lure them out.

In the memories from his previous life, he had been chased down by them and thus was very familiar with the many hidden signs of the Church of Universal Truth.

Just as Charlot was thinking about this, everything before him turned black, and he completely lost consciousness.

When he woke up, he was seated in a small dark room. A middle-aged man looked at him coldly and said, “Where did you learn these hidden signs and marks?”

Charlot smiled. “You guys should know that the Empire’s King Alexander is currently preparing for the evil god summoning ritual, right?”

The middle-aged man’s countenance changed as he asked, “Who are you?”

“My Master is Fang Xingjian. We’re trying to contact your side so that we can come together to stop the ritual.”

“Fang Xingjian? That Fang Xingjian who is evenly matched with Alexander?” The middle-aged man said with a frown.

Simultaneously, he started contemplating, “The Church is currently in a state of internal chaos, and we’re still fretting that we won’t have enough forces to dispatch and stop this ritual. If that Fang Xingjian is really as the rumors say and is able to go up against Alexander, then this will reduce our burdens.

‘With that, I’ll also be free to deal with the people from the Mage Association.’
