“But, I’ve never heard of this sect…”
A few people beside him said excitedly, “That’s because the great god had slept and had just woken up… Just wait and see. Lord Zarok will answer all your questions.”
At this moment, the terrifying human spider-like creature stepped forward. It swept its gaze around, raised the Holy Black Book, and chanted softly.
“The Great God of the Ancient Tree of Darkness Sect has returned from eternity.”
All the black-feathered people knelt and chanted at the same time.
“The Great God of the Ancient Tree of Darkness Faction has returned from eternity…”
The voices echoed uniformly and sonorously on the dark hill. Solemnity and holiness brimmed their souls.
The terrifying cleric’s voice continued.
“He is the undying master, the controller of power, the embodiment of darkness, and everyone’s salvation.”
‘He is the master of my power? The controller of power? The embodiment of darkness? He is my salvation?!!’
“He is eternal. He stands in the past, appears in the present, and exists forever in the future. He is in the past, in the present, and forever!”
The cleric’s voice suddenly sounded louder.
The next moment, the black-feathered man on the hill immediately revealed excitement and fanaticism.
“He is eternal. He stands in the past, appears in the present, and exists forever in the future.!”
As soon as he said that, the great messenger prepared the Holy Black Book in his hand. Boundless energy surged out and quickly gathered in the sky.
At the same time, his voice suddenly sounded high-pitched.
“Great God of the Ancient Tree of Darkness Sect, your eternal and devout believer is willing to offer faith, soul, and eternal obedience. Great God, the God who controls the endless power of darkness and corruption, my humble believer begs for your mercy and attention!”
The moment the prayer fell.
The energy that surged from the Holy Black Book dispersed. That condensed into the shadow of a giant tree 50 meters tall.
They would recognize the life in the picture if the soldiers of Twilight City were here.
The god’s ancient tree.
The black-feathered man immediately went crazy when he saw the shadow.
They crossed their arms before their chests and began to pray most devoutly.
“Eternal Great God of the Ancient Tree of Darkness Sect, praise your strength, your grandeur…”
“O mighty Great God of Ancient Tree of Darkness Sect, lord of the ‘Holy Nimita,’ your humble believers offer everything to you…”
All answered with devotion.
The great messenger would name all the prayers to the Great God of the Ancient Tree of Darkness Sect.
That attitude was hard for Jake to accept.
Tuks had never believed in gods before. Such a humble bow still touched his sensitive nerves, although he was in awe of those who controlled supreme power.
‘Why have they settled their faith in this entity?’
That was the biggest question in his mind.
A figure lingered in the breeze.
The distorted dark figure looked at the blurry image.
Jake suddenly felt his soul freeze.
His thoughts suddenly stopped.
“I will grant you the power of the Ancient Tree of Darkness Sect.”
He finished speaking, and a majestic energy surged from the blurry image and directly poured into Jake’s body.
Jake felt something that had slept in his bloodline suddenly woke up.
‘Kacha!’
That severed one invisible shackle after another.
Jake released a low growl. And then his aura soared.
He regained his senses after ten breaths. He was shocked to find that his strength had risen to level 8.
He was one level higher than the Tuk Tribe Leader!!
He stared blankly at the scene in the sky. It was hard to imagine.
“Level 8, this was level 8!”
The Great God had bestowed a divine grace!!
The unacceptable emotions in his heart collapsed before a vast surprise.
Jake most humbly knelt without the slightest hesitation.
His tone sounded almost crazy.
“Oh, Almighty Ruler! Thank you for your gift, your humble believer. I will protect your glory with my life and soul!!”
Jake finished speaking. Only the great messenger could see a thin, white line that quietly merged into the illusory ancient tree from the top of his head.
“Listen to my oracle and follow the teachings. The Ancient Tree of Darkness Sect is your eternal support.”
“He came from the past, stands in the present, and exists in the future.”
The blurry figure slowly disappeared when he finished speaking.
The black-feathered people in the arena went exaggeratedly excited.
“Praise the Great God of the Ancient Tree of Darkness Sect!!”
The atmosphere reached its peak. The great messenger stood up and looked at everyone with its scarlet eyes.
“After the first Battle of the Gods, our god fell into a deep sleep. It was not until tonight that I sensed the rise of the Crimson Moon that he woke up.”
“The Great God is immortal. He is the only ruler who can protect you.
“Our god is recovering his strength, so we need you to pray most devoutly.
“When you are devout enough, you will feel the gaze of our god.
What had just happened replenished the black-feathered people on the hill.
They immediately knelt and worshipped.
The great messenger finished preaching and waved his hand.
Suddenly, solemn voices reverberated from all directions on the hill. It was like something had purified their souls.
“Great God of the Ancient Tree of Darkness Sect, you are the savior of our lives. We thank and praise you. We offer our loyalty and faith to you until eternity.”
