Tantric family to divine dynasty

Chapter 498: The Eighth Ladder "The Undertaker"

The Lorne Empire.

Inside the Imperial Parliament Hall, the towering chairs were arranged neatly, and each row was filled with Imperial parliamentarians in formal attire, each of them solemn and serious.

Above the hall, emblems and flags representing imperial power were hung, shining brightly under the lights.

In the center of the hall is a huge circular podium.

Prime Minister William, who still looked somewhat weak despite his semi-mechanized body, sat in a wheelchair with his eyes closed. Suddenly, he stood up from the wheelchair and slowly walked up to the podium.

"I have already reported to His Majesty the Emperor about the Fisher family. The information is basically correct. The Fisher family is indeed an evil existence."

"They serve a terrifying otherworldly god, and they could cause great turmoil and destruction at any time. I propose to send a hundred powerful monarchs to march to the east with all their strength to destroy the Fisher family."

As the Prime Minister finished his speech, MPs began to raise their questions and opinions.

"Really? Those news are actually true? The Fischer family and Prime Minister William are relatives, right? Don't you feel that you need to be responsible for this?"

"Mr. Prime Minister! What does His Majesty think? Mr. Prime Minister, you alone cannot make the final decision on such an important matter!"

"The great war with Qiyao in another continent caused heavy casualties among the monarch-level extraordinary people in our country, and we are still far from recovering. If we really send half of the monarch-level extraordinary people to the east, Qiyao may take the opportunity to attack us!"

They believed that this would be an important step in promoting the development of the country. The debate was extremely heated. Sometimes they argued loudly and sometimes they talked in low voices. Prime Minister William just stared at everyone coldly.

At this moment, the iron-blooded Marshal Horatio Wesley stood up.

As the strongest man in the Loen Empire, he just stood up slowly, and his powerful aura made it difficult for everyone to speak.

"Declaring war on the Fisher family and the three Siat countries is something that I, Prime Minister William, and His Majesty the Emperor all agree on. I don't think there is any need for any more objections!"

All the parliamentarians were shocked. For various reasons, Marshal Horatio and Prime Minister William's "Sword Bearers" were often in conflict with the "Sunbird" family. They did not expect that they could reach a consensus.

"In that case..."

There was no sadness or joy in Prime Minister William's eyes. He didn't think anything would happen to his children in the Fischer family because there were still many heirs in the family.

"The Fisher family is doomed!"

-

Inside the magnificent imperial palace of the Qiyao Empire, brilliant golden light poured down from the crystal chandeliers on the towering ceiling. In the center of the hall, the “God of War” calmly looked toward the southeast.

"Fischer again?"

On one side of the hall, a bishop of the Recast Church, dressed in a gorgeous red and white robe and holding a scepter, walked in slowly with a gentle and solemn smile on his face.

He is the highly respected Cardinal "Brass Gear" in the Church of Reforging. He came here to have an in-depth discussion with the Emperor of the Seven Stars about the affairs of the Fisher family.

"Your Majesty must have heard about Fischer's incident, right?"

"Yes."

The "God of War" Emperor showed an interested expression on his face, and then said: "The son of the sun god in the south has taken action, right? Fisher's secret is true, right?"

"That's all right. You're right."

The "Brass Gear" holds a distinguished position in the Church of Reforging, but in front of the strongest person in the world of Krad, it is still cautious and respectful.

"Hmm, so that's how it is..." Emperor Qiyao fell into deep thought.

The eyes of the "Brass Gear" Cardinal inadvertently revealed a trace of imperceptible shock. Staring at the emperor sitting on the throne, his heart was filled with unprecedented shock.

The aura of the "God of War" seemed particularly powerful at this moment, like a towering mountain, standing tall, or like a vast ocean, deep and boundless.

He could feel that the aura of the Seven Lights Emperor was constantly rising, as if it was about to break through some invisible boundary and reach an even more terrifying level.

Once he really breaks through to this level, he will reach the level of Apocalypse! At that time, in the world of Krad, this "strongest" will gradually move towards the point of "invincibility".

"Brass Gear" knew very well that the so-called strongest was insignificant to that person.

What he wanted was not to be slightly stronger than the second place, but to be strong enough to defeat everyone by himself. I am afraid that even reaching the top of Apocalypse would not satisfy that ambition.

However, in addition to being shocked, Cardinal "Brass Gear" also felt a little worried. Does such a huge momentum mean that it has reached a certain limit?

Is there some unknown force trying to stop him from moving forward?
It is said that the three quasi-gods who existed in the world ten thousand years ago were all the strongest in that era. However, they were all sealed...

Some people say that it was the gods who did it because they do not allow new gods to appear.

"What are you thinking?"

The voice of the Seven Lights Emperor suddenly woke up the Brass Gear.

The next sentence surprised him again.

"Do you think we should destroy Fischer?" Brass Gear was stunned for a moment, then nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course!"

The Seven Stars Emperor revealed a meaningful look.

Inside the ancient and magnificent Cathedral of the Church of Redemption, the towering spires point straight to the sky, and the afterglow of the setting sun shines through the stained glass windows, sprinkling on the ground to form colorful light and shadows.

In the central hall, several bishops in gorgeous robes sat around a long and wide wooden table, with serious expressions on their faces.

In the center of the table was a thick Code of the Church of Redemption, and next to it was a detailed report on the Fischer family and several related letters. These documents recorded in detail the Fischer family's recent behavior and the controversies it had caused.

One of the elder bishops, holding his staff, was the first to break the silence:
"The actions of the Fischer family have attracted our wide attention. They have not only seriously harmed the interests of the church, but also brought huge hidden dangers to the entire world!"

Another bishop added: “It is true that the Fischer family has risen in wealth and status in recent years, but they have actually lost their way from the beginning!”

Then a young bishop expressed his concerns: "We must act quickly..."

His Holiness the Pope of the Church of Redemption was not here, but the bishops present nodded in agreement and began to discuss specific countermeasures.

Finally, after some heated discussions, the bishops reached a consensus.

"Fischer's name must be wiped out of the world."

-

Nasir City.

At the dim and quiet evening, a man with silver hair slowly walked into the ancient cemetery of his family, his head full of silver hair was coated with a layer of faint golden glow.

All around are the resting places of successive generations of Fisher family members, both direct bloodline and those that aren’t, and each tombstone marks the end of a story.

"..."

He slowly walked towards a tombstone engraved with a familiar name, where his beloved wife was buried, the words on the tombstone whispering softly in the breeze.

Chris stopped and gently stroked the cold stone tablet with his hands, as if he could feel the breath of his wife Vanessa.

she……

I think I have seen the Lord of the Lost...

The world after death of a pious person will be different, right?

He stared at his wife's tombstone and fell into deep silence, his thoughts running wild like a wild horse.

In this moment of silence, Chris quickly reviewed his life - from his youth to the present, every achievement, every failure, every joy and sorrow flashed through his mind quickly.

No matter how glorious it was, no matter how much you loved or were loved, it will eventually return to dust.

Only death is the inevitable end for everyone.

This realization did not bring him fear or despair, but instead made his heart unusually calm.

"Goodbye."

Finally, Chris sighed softly, with a look of relief and reluctance in his eyes. He slowly turned around and left the cemetery, his steps more determined than when he came.

He knew that death was both the end and not the end. He would continue to write his own story for the rest of his life until he became a tombstone on this land.

Chris's figure was elongated, and his eyes were shining with an unprecedented light.

Suddenly, an indescribable energy wave filled the air, slowly spreading around, gently touching every inch of space like ripples.

The hustle and bustle of Nasir City gradually disappeared under the penetration of this force. Vehicles stopped roaring, pedestrians froze in place, even the breeze seemed to have forgotten to blow, the leaves were still, and the whole world seemed to be paused.

Time lost its meaning of flow at this moment, everything became extremely quiet, and Chris was left as the only living thing in this static world.

The Fisher family has not yet performed any sacrifices, however, the extraordinary materials needed to advance to the eighth level have disappeared.

"I finally got the satisfaction of saying goodbye to the most important thing in my heart."

At this moment, Carl also lit up a new star in the spiritual world.

In the center was an old man dressed in black and white with an expressionless face, standing near the tombstone as if he had no life at all.

The eighth step of the path to tranquility.

"The Undertaker".
