Apotheosis

While the warriors remained confused as to why they couldn't attack Rocher, the sword in Rocher's hand turned into a ray of light that headed straight for the three Demi-holy Beings in the front.

These were highly experienced Demi-holy Beings.

Although Rocher's power took them by surprise, they all managed to react quickly.

"Gentle Wind Twining!"

From the body of a Demi-holy Being emerged a gently breeze.

Although harmless at first, countless thin gusts began to quickly coil like invisible ropes around Rocher's Soaring Snake Sword.

"The breeze..."

Rocher's eyes widened. Despite the sharpness of his sword, it failed to inflict damage on the unshapely breeze.

"I've stopped him!" the Demi-holy Being bellowed.

"We must trap him before he can make another move!"

Seeing this, other Demi-holy Beings followed suit.

The burning flames evolved into long threads that headed straight for Rocher. Not long after, the Life Godly Way morphed into vines that ensnared him.

Rocher's eyes slightly narrowed as he looked at these wise individuals.

Rocher was a consummate True God. He would've been unable to deal with several Demi-holy Beings if he hadn't gone to the Abyss Demon Region.

However, he was different now.

Before the Demi-holy Beings' attacks could reach him, tiny ice flowers appeared in front of him.

Once the threads of flames reached the ice flowers, the flames immediately disappeared and were replaced by ice.

The vines headed towards Rocher turned to ice as well.

The chilly air that ran along the vines turned the fierce flames into frosty ice flowers.

Even the gentle breezes couldn't escape being turned into ice—their outlines now visible due to the ice flowers floating in the air.

"What energy is this?"

"Is this the Mysterious Ice Godly Way?"

"Impossible! The Mysterious Ice Godly Way isn't that frightening. Back off!"

The Demi-holy Beings looked terrified.

Although a warning was sent out, Rocher's ice flowers were too fast. The three Demi-holy Beings that tried to trap

Zen stared at Pascal and retorted with a smile, "Whether we die today or not isn't for you to decide. That will be answered when we're done fighting. But before that, I'll have to admit that I do feel sorry for you—being turned into a puppet by your father and all."

Upon hearing this, all the bystanders looked at each other in shock and confusion.

"Pascal? A...puppet?"

"By his...father?"

Alfredo's brows furrowed and then raised abruptly.

He was already aware of the changes that Pascal, Laquisha, and Aleyna had undergone even before entering the Abyss Demon Region. What he wasn't aware of was how cruel Samuel could be to do such a thing to his children.

Pascal—or rather, Samuel in Pascal's body—was clearly irritated with the fact that Zen had exposed him in front of all those witnesses.

Just as Pascal was about to attack, Zen revealed, "I've restored Laquisha's and Aleyna's memories. They're both disappointed in you, Aleyna especially. She never thought her own father would be capable of such cruelty."

Even when the two girls stayed within the fairy palace, Zen could sense that they still had certain feelings toward the Han Clan.

Their father's poor treatment of them was unacceptable.

"Stop!"

Pascal interrupted him.

A fierce light shot out of his eyes and his black wings trembled as he began charging towards Zen.
