Chapter 563: Draw Your Sword!
The man in blue nodded slightly. "That\'s right."
"Then, we\'ve found the right person."
The man in blue blinked. "Has my grandson done something wrong?"
The Temple Master stared deeply at the man in blue. "Yes, and it was quite serious."
The man in blue laughed heartily. "Whatever my grandson has done, I\'ll take full responsibility for it."
"Do you know who we are?" asked the Temple Master.
Shaking his head, the man in blue admitted, "I don\'t."
Before the Temple Master could speak, the man in blue added, "But it doesn\'t matter who you are."
A cold glint flashed in the Temple Master\'s eyes narrowed eyes. "Such arrogance."
The Temple Master suddenly stepped forward and flipped his palm. A blazing divine light surged toward the man in blue.
"Is that all?" asked the man in blue with furrowed brows. Then, he flicked his sleeve, shattering the blazing divine light.
The Temple Master was stunned.
"Not bad," the Temple Master remarked after a while.
The man in blue was silent, and the Temple Master dared not underestimate him any longer. His figure trembled, and he took to the sky before chanting an ancient incantation in a low voice.
Boom!
A divine light erupted from within the Temple Master, piercing the deep void and opening a golden pathway. The golden pathway was emanating an ancient aura.
The elites of the Temple of the Gods knelt down before the ancient aura.
"We welcome the divine power."
Divine power!
The man in blue and the Unfettered Swordsman looked up at the sky. Streams of golden light rushed out of the golden pathway, and they converged at one point, transforming into a golden giant under everyone\'s gaze.
The golden giant stood hundreds of meters tall, and it was wielding a golden colossal sword. It emanated a devastating aura that was seemingly capable of destroying the vast expanse.
The Temple Master was thrilled to see the golden giant, and he bowed deeply toward it. Naturally, he genuinely respected the gods, as his current strength and status had all been bestowed upon him by the gods.
The kneeling members of the Temple of the Gods were thrilled as well. After many years, they were witnessing the legendary divine power once again. Although they had entered the Temple of the Gods long ago, they had never really seen a real god before; the gods were like vague concepts to them until now.
At times, they couldn\'t help but question: were there truly gods in this world?
Upon clapping their eyes on the golden giant, however, they knew without a doubt that gods did exist. The golden giant\'s appearance was a profound affirmation of their faith, and their belief had gotten even stronger than before.
From afar, the two men observed the towering figure in the sky with a mix of calmness and disappointment in their eyes. The Unfettered Swordsman also shook his head slightly in displeasure.
The golden giant lowered its gaze and swung its colossal sword downward.
Bam!
The starry skies split open, and the vast expanse trembled. The colossal sword carried with it an unstoppable force that rendered everything insignificant.
However, the man in blue remained composed, and he casually lifted his sword, thrusting it toward the oncoming colossal sword.
A resounding hum echoed, and the man in blue\'s sword shattered the giant\'s colossal sword—no, even the towering giant itself shattered into pieces. The divine giant was vanquished in just a single move.
The Temple Master and the members of the Temple of the Gods stood dumbfounded.
The giant died just like that? Didn\'t that giant contain the power of the gods? How come it died with a mere sword thrust?
Their bewilderment was so thick that it was palpable.
Meanwhile, the man in blue turned to the Temple Master and calmly asked, "Why not summon your \'god\' to face us?"
The Temple Master, shaken to his core, couldn\'t comprehend how the divine power he had invoked had been dispelled so effortlessly. Doubt and disbelief consumed him: were the gods truly omnipotent?
His faith wavered, and the inner conflict made him feel anguished. The man in blue glanced at the golden pathway before directing his attention to the temple behind them.
"Are your gods the same as those worshipped in this ruin?"
The Temple Master hesitated before responding, "Not exactly..."
Sensing the ambiguity, the man in blue robes pressed on. “So what are they?”
With a heavy sigh, the Temple Master confessed, "I\'m not well-versed in ancient history, but I know one thing for sure: there were once numerous gods being worshipped in the Temple of the Gods, and there were perhaps over a hundred of them.
"However, an internal strife among them led to the downfall of many. Our Temple of the Gods is worshiping the gods that had survived that."
The man in blue furrowed his brow in confusion. "Internal strife?"
The Temple Master nodded solemnly in response. "Yes."
The man in blue asked, "Do you know where to find those surviving gods?"
The Temple Master shook his head and replied, "No, we\'ve never had the means to reach out to the gods; it\'s always been the other way around."
The man in blue nodded in understanding.
"I see," the man in blue acknowledged before turning to the Unfettered Swordsman with a determined grin.
"Time to make a move," the man in blue declared.
The Unfettered Swordsman nodded. "Let\'s go."
The unique aura that they had sensed here had lured them to this place, and the divine power that the Temple Master had used not too long ago felt the same as that unique aura.
The gods of the ancient era!
The two were intrigued by the ancient era\'s gods.
Meanwhile, the Temple Master chose to flee. He turned around and ran away, entering a rift in spacetime in a hurry. However, the man in blue and the Unfettered Swordsman intercepted him in no time.
The Temple Master froze, and he realized that he had been cornered. The man in blue stared at the Temple Master with a wry smile. "I\'m not interested in you, but you\'re targeting my grandson, so I cannot let you—"
The man in blue stopped mid-sentence upon sensing a presence. He whipped around along with the Unfettered Swordsman. There was a spacetime rift in the distance, and a woman clad in white robes had walked out of it.
The woman was none other than Sifan Jing!
The man in blue and the Unfettered Swordsman were taken aback by her sudden appearance. Sifan Jing approached them slowly, and her gaze landed on the man in blue.
The man in blue smirked, asking, "Are you here to protect him?"
Sifan Jing glanced at the Temple Master, who hurriedly bowed.
"Clan Leader Jing," the Temple Master said.
Sifan Jing then turned to the man in blue and commanded, "Draw your sword!"
