I've Been AFK for Ten Million Years-Chapter 455: Invitation of the Temple

"Retreat!"

The man turned to flee, but Ren Changsheng’s pointing finger gathered its force completely. Although the finger bore no sense of imminent danger, it struck unspeakable terror in the man’s heart.

That finger, it carried the breath of death.

How many years had it been?

Ever since he advanced to the half-step of Chaotic Power, hardly anyone could pose a threat to his life. Today, he felt the urgent proximity of death once again.

"Trying to leave? Do you think you can escape?"

Ren Changsheng’s icy voice echoed in the man’s mind. Hearing this voice, the man’s face drastically changed. In that moment, he felt that finger had completely locked onto him.

He wanted to back away, yet he found there was nowhere to retreat to. No matter where he tried to flee, that finger could land upon him at any time, and he could not escape Ren Changsheng’s pointed finger.

"Who is he? How can he be so powerful!"

The man was incredibly shocked. He had not expected that Ren Changsheng, with only the cultivation of mid-stage Heavenly Dao, could be this formidable. There was no way for him to dodge the finger that had locked onto him.

"Phut!"

At a crucial moment, just as Ren Changsheng’s finger was about to descend, the man’s body forcibly shifted a step aside, and as a result, Ren Changsheng’s finger did not hit the man’s glabella.

Instead, it landed on the man’s left hand.

"Boom!"

A dull sound burst out, and the man’s arm exploded.

"Ah!"

A scream rang out, and the man’s body retreated repeatedly, falling back hundreds of yards before finally stopping. Looking at his left hand, now a bloody mess, the man’s face was ashen.

Looking back at Ren Changsheng, his eyes were different now.

Who was Ren Changsheng standing before him? How could he be so terrifying? The man was, after all, a half-step Chaotic being with three innate sources unlocked, his physique on par with the finest of Innate treasures.

Yet now, it too was easily shattered by a simple flick of Ren Changsheng’s finger.

"Who exactly are you?"

The man asked, his face pale.

"Who am I? You come to my Human Emperor’s Palace and still do not know who I am?"

Ren Changsheng spoke mockingly.

"You’re the Human Emperor!"

The man took a deep breath. Was Ren Changsheng really the Human Emperor? But he couldn’t believe it—how could a Saint in the mid-stage of Heavenly Dao be so terrifying?

"Human Emperor, I am from the Divine Temple, and what’s more, I’m a disciple of the Yellow Priest. Dare you harm me?"

As if recalling something, the man said sharply.

In the man’s eyes, fierce light surged. Ren Changsheng’s finger, charged with terrible Chaotic Power, had shattered his left hand. To fully recover would require an unknown amount of time.

Moreover, he felt that his inner world had also suffered substantial impact—an important matter for him.

The inner world represented his foundation. Any damage was troublesome to heal and could even affect his future advancement.

"Divine Temple? The Yellow Priest?"

A flash of coldness appeared in Ren Changsheng’s eyes. So what if it was the Divine Temple? Even though the Divine Temple housed Chaotic Saints, should they provoke Ren Changsheng, he, Zhao Yang, would blow up the Divine Temple. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

As for the Yellow Priest, merely a half-step Chaotic being, Ren Changsheng did not take him seriously at all.

"Did the Yellow Priest send you here to use the Divine Temple’s name to intimidate my Human Emperor’s Palace?"

Ren Changsheng’s tone was cold and indifferent.

"This..."

The man’s eyes flickered. From his arrival at the Human Emperor’s Palace to the clash with Ren Changsheng that caused his injury, it was all his own doing.

Ren Changsheng certainly didn’t initiate an attack against him!

Speaking of which, the Yellow Priest probably had no justification, and now, with Ren Changsheng so strong, the man’s pride from the start had vanished.

"This is a top-tier Jade Talisman from the Human Emperor Hall!"

The man took a deep breath and then handed a purple Jade Talisman to Ren Changsheng, which was flashing with mysterious patterns.

The purple Jade Talisman represents one’s status.

In all of Heavenly Bull City, there were only nine of these talismans. Of course, now with Ren Changsheng’s, there were ten. From today on, the Human Emperor Hall would advance to a top-tier power.

"Take it!"

Ren Changsheng said indifferently to Ba Di.

"Yes, Master!"

Ba Di stepped forward and took the Jade Talisman, looking disdainfully at the man while doing so. Was this strength sufficient to challenge the Master?

Dare to threaten the Master?

Now, in front of the master, the man had to behave. Had he known it would come to this, it would have been better to simply hand over the Jade Talisman without having to suffer that finger.

"Boss, what do you call this?"

Di Sha asked with a giggle.

"According to the Master, such Saints are cheap. The more polite you are to them, the more they want. Look how much quieter it is now!"

Di Sha said with a cold arrogance.

"Boss is right!"

Jincheng looked up at Di Sha with admiration. It was no wonder Di Sha had followed the Master the longest; many profound truths were beyond his own reach. There was so much for him to learn in the future.

"Cheap?"

The man’s face changed slightly, but in a moment, he could only lower his head. If he continued to make moves now, he had no confidence that he could stop Ren Changsheng’s next finger.

Moreover, he felt the Chaotic Power emanating from Ba Di and the others.

Although Ba Di and the others were all at the peak of the ninth layer of Heavenly Dao, their combat strength was on par with semi-Chaotic Power beings.

"What kind of monsters are these?"

The man wondered secretly, as each person in front of him had the cultivation of the ninth layer of Heavenly Dao, yet their combat power was comparable to that of semi-Chaotic beings.

What kind of people were they?

"Master, the Jade Talisman!"

Ba Di handed the Jade Talisman to Ren Changsheng.

"Doesn’t the Yellow Priest have any other messages?"

Ren Changsheng fiddled with the Jade Talisman, which was made of special material, possibly from Chaos, but even Ren Changsheng couldn’t identify the material of the talisman.

"Other messages?"

The man paused for a moment, then took a deep breath and said, "The Master also mentioned, please meet at the temple in three days. Of course, there’s also the matter of the battle of the Heaven’s Chosen. The Human Emperor Hall, having advanced to a top-tier force, according to the rules, now possesses a spot for direct entry into the Chaos Secret Realm!"

"Moreover, in the upcoming battle of the Heaven’s Chosen, the Human Emperor Hall can also dispatch nine people to participate!"

The man said gravely.

"Understood!"

Ren Changsheng waved his hand slightly; he had already known about these matters. Even the invitation from the Yellow Priest was within Ren Changsheng’s calculations.

After the death of the ninth elder of the Meizu, the Yellow Priest had said that once the Human Emperor Hall advanced to a top-tier force, it could be known that now was the time to meet, as the Human Emperor Hall had already reached that status.

"Human Emperor, I have delivered the message and the object. I will take my leave now!"

The man turned around and left directly – as a joke, the man didn’t even want to stay for another quarter of an hour. Who knew if Ren Changsheng would attack again?

The man was sure that Ren Changsheng’s last finger was meant to kill him.
