Chapter 415: Chapter415-Everything Goes Smoothly? Despair!
That Oracle-grade servant was also a second-stage Oracle-grade expert, and he had met Shar a few times before.
"Wait. Shar was actually killed by a Divine Sovereign?!"
He drew in a sharp breath.
A Divine Sovereign killing a second-stage Oracle-grade expert?
That was simply heaven-defying!
"But no matter how powerful he is, in the end, he is still only a Divine Sovereign. Before a fifth-stage master, he’s no different from an ant."
The Oracle-grade servant began calculating inwardly.
Shar was merely someone who had just entered the second stage. How could he possibly compare to his master?
As for that Divine Sovereign...
His master had a million ways to kill him without even letting him make a sound.
He immediately reported the news to Jevan. After hearing it, Jevan’s expression also changed slightly.
"Hm? A Divine Sovereign capable of killing a second-stage Oracle-grade expert?"
"Who exactly is such a strange expert? Does he have some great power backing him? What if there’s an extraordinary old monster standing behind him?"
Jevan had managed to reach the fifth stage on his own, so naturally, he was not someone easy to fool.
He did not underestimate Daniel in the slightest. His mind turned over the possible gains and losses again and again.
"No hurry. I’ll take a look first."
After thinking it over, Jevan still could not make up his mind. He was reluctant to give up on the ten-thousandfold sanctum, yet he could not determine Daniel’s background.
When in doubt, divine through astrology.
This was an old habit he had kept for many years.
He immediately took out an astrolabe and activated the Law of Fate to perform a divination.
"Hm?! Everything will go smoothly!"
Looking at the divination result, a smile instantly appeared on Jevan’s face.
He happened to have grasped a shallow understanding of the Law of Fate. However, this thing was far too profound. Even for him, he had only barely touched the threshold of low-grade.
Usually, he relied on this astrolabe to perform divination and avoid danger. This time, the result showed extreme smoothness, which meant there would be no real obstacles in carrying out his plan.
Thinking of this, Jevan immediately waved his hand toward the Oracle-grade servants and sage attendants beside him.
"Let’s go. We’ll take a look."
"As you command, Master."
The servants answered in unison. They all understood that their master was going to seize that sanctum.
...
Outside the sanctum occupied by Daniel.
Jevan descended with his many servants.
Just like Daniel had done before, he hovered at the edge of the arrays and restrictions, carefully examining the layered array barriers before him.
"Master, I am willing to scout the way for you."
One Oracle-grade servant was eager to earn merit and volunteered himself.
"Foolish!"
Jevan shouted coldly and stopped him.
"The arrays and restrictions here are extraordinary. If you enter, you’ll merely be throwing your life away."
"Ah?!"
Hearing Jevan’s rebuke, the Oracle-grade servant was shocked and could not help but take half a step back.
He did not doubt Jevan’s words at all. He simply had not expected this seemingly ordinary array to be so dangerous.
"Hmph!"
Jevan sneered.
"This array may look loose and ordinary, but it hides lethal killing intent. Even an ordinary fifth-stage Oracle-grade expert would not fare well after entering."
"Unfortunately for it, it has encountered me."
He believed he had already seen through the truth and weakness of this array.
"As it happens, I recently obtained a defensive treasure."
Jevan raised his hand and summoned a golden battle armor.
The golden armor instantly fitted itself over his body, emitting a hazy golden radiance.
"This is a Primordial-grade defensive treasure. Once activated by me, it can withstand the full-force strike of a fifth-stage Oracle-grade expert. The power of this array is at most at the fifth-stage Oracle-grade level. It cannot do anything to me."
Jevan silently pondered.
If those foolish servants charged in recklessly, they would likely lose their lives.
Although they were servants, they were also his assets. He could not afford to lose them casually.
"I’ll handle this myself."
With that thought, he turned to his servants and said, "Wait here. I’ll break through these arrays and restrictions first."
"Once the array is broken, that Divine Sovereign inside will be mine to handle as I please!"
"Congratulations in advance on your smooth victory, Master!"
The servants spoke in unison.
Jevan nodded faintly.
That Divine Sovereign inside had probably exhausted everything he had just to kill a second-stage Oracle-grade expert.
But Jevan was a fifth-stage Oracle-grade expert.
For him, crushing a second-stage Oracle-grade expert was easier than crushing an ant.
More importantly, his divination result showed great fortune and smooth success for this trip.
Swish!
Wearing the golden armor, Jevan calmly stepped into the arrays and restrictions.
None of the servants behind him were worried. A fifth-stage Oracle-grade expert was no random weakling.
Barring any accident, their master would surely return safely, just as he had in every past battle.
Buzz!
The instant Jevan stepped into the array, layers upon layers of restrictions were triggered.
Countless streams of law power surged like a tide, and the killing arrays activated.
"Hmph."
He remained unmoved and continued walking forward steadily.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, an extremely sharp aura erupted.
It was a fierce blade light, so fast that it was almost impossible to capture.
Jevan had no time to dodge. He could only rely on the golden armor to withstand it head-on.
Boom!
The blade light struck his body and sent him flying. The light on the golden armor instantly dimmed, then shattered into countless fragments.
"What kind of joke is this?!"
Jevan’s expression changed drastically.
That golden armor could withstand the full-force strike of a fifth-stage Oracle-grade expert.
In other words, the power of that blade light just now had already surpassed the limit of fifth-stage Oracle-grade.
Although the golden armor had blocked the fatal strike, it had also been completely destroyed.
"That attack... was at least the full-force strike of a Tier-6 Oracle-grade expert!"
Cold sweat covered Jevan’s forehead, and his heart was filled with horror.
"It’s an Oracle-grade treasure! A Tier-6 Oracle-grade treasure!"
"So that’s how it is. No wonder that Divine Sovereign could kill a second-stage Oracle-grade expert. He actually has such a supreme treasure on him!"
His mind was spinning rapidly, but he still did not forget to encourage himself.
"No need to worry... the divination result showed great fortune... nothing will happen to me!"
The golden armor had already shattered, and the attacks from the killing arrays surged toward him like a tide, bombarding him layer after layer.
However, he did not suffer any serious harm.
After all, no matter what, he was a genuine fifth-stage Oracle-grade expert.
Although this array possessed power at the fifth-stage Oracle-grade level, in the end, it was still only a dead object.
But at that moment—
Whoosh, whoosh!
Two arrows tore through the air, one after the other, accurately locking onto his vital points. Their speed was so terrifying that there was no way to evade them.
"Damn it! Why are there Oracle-grade treasures again?!"
Jevan was about to go mad.
Oracle-grade treasures, things of immense value, were being poured out here as if they cost nothing.
And every single one of them was absurdly powerful!
Boom!
He activated a law-based Sacred Art and forcefully withstood the arrow coming from the front. However, he could no longer block the arrow behind him.
Whoosh... splurt!
The arrow stabbed viciously into his back, then exploded with a roar.
Jevan’s back was blasted into a bloody mess. Even white bone could be seen exposed beneath the torn flesh.
But at that very moment—
Whoosh, whoosh!
Another two arrows shot toward him, again one from the front and one from behind.
"Damn it! How could my divination result be wrong? Where exactly did the problem come from?!"
An ominous feeling surged in Jevan’s heart.
He knew that he had already fallen into a desperate situation.
There was a very real chance that he would die here!
And the earlier divination result of everything going smoothly now seemed unbearably glaring.
"Is this some kind of joke?!"
Jevan roared in despair.
Whoosh, whoosh!
Boom, boom!
The arrows struck again, blasting him violently away. He was already on the verge of death.
At that moment, another blade light tore through the air.
It was the judgment of finality!
Jevan stared blankly at the blade light, knowing that death was certain.
"That Divine Sovereign... just who is he?"
"What kind of existence have I provoked? Could there be an Eternal Sage standing behind him?"
Unwillingness filled his heart as he closed his eyes.
Swish!
The blade light flashed past.
His head fell to the ground.
