Apotheosis – Ascension to Godhood Chapter 1411: Summoning For A Gathering

In the past few days, whenever the malicious aura containing the poison exerted itself, Zen's actions beca more violent than before.

But gradually, he too ca to understand the thoughts of Sword Chen.

To cultivate the Emotion Closing Godly Way ant completely discarding one's emotions. However, there had been tis when even the Buddha got angry. It was simply unrealistic for a martial artist, who was nonetheless a living being, to completely discard all feelings.

The only other way for Zen was to be like a hard stone. Then, he would truly be ruthless and heartless.

There was almost no such thing as the absolute Emotion Closing Godly Way. Zen's talent was supre, and he had gradually approached the Emotion Closing Godly Way rely by relying on instinct, but there was still so way for him to go.

Sword Chen had helped Zen with a special technique to fill in the gap.

The special malicious aura had been created by Sword Chen himself. By using the malicious aura to fill one's body, one could turn themselves into a ruthless killer.

In this state, Zen completely withdrew all his emotions, his perception of external things dropping infinitely.

At this mont, he did not even know if he was human, ghost, or a different entity altogether.

This was why he had launched an attack on anyone he saw when the malicious aura exploded. Whether it was Rocher, Lucille, or even Lawson, whom he despised, he targeted all of them and attacked them undiscriminatingly.

When he was no longer influenced by the fluctuation of his emotions, he would close off his emotions. To put it bluntly, Zen would beco heartless like a stone. He would only know how to kill, uncaring of his reasons for killing, or the consequences of killing his opponents.

Master Feng should have expected this long back. He had thrown him into this scenario and let him do whatever he wanted. The other warriors were not so easy to ss with anyway, so nothing bad could happen to them.

However, at this stage, Zen was not familiar with the malicious aura enough to sever his emotions correctly. He could abandon his emotions when he was in a frenzied state, but he was unable to control himself.

As he went berserk ti and ti again, Zen's consciousness gradually grew independent.

At the beginning, he had been like a primal beast. After losing his consciousness, he charged toward Rocher and the others purely on instinct.

Now when Zen's eyes had beco bloodshot red, he could control his own actions to a certain extent.

As soon as Zen gained control on his emotions, he would step into the Emotion Closing Godly Way.

Zen was able to draw and wield his sword multiple tis in quick succession, but he was still unable to employ the Gods-intimidating Strike. Rocher and the rest had gotten used to Zen's madness in the past few days. They seed to be treating it as a form of practice. Whenever they sensed that Zen growing abnormal, they would step away and use different ans to control him.

However, today sothing unexpected happened.

Margaret was soone who only believed in what she saw and never thought of it too deeply. She seed to be unable to think straight, especially when Zen was involved.

A glimpse of the situation made Margaret believe that the other warriors were going up against Zen, who was all alone.

How could she stand to see it?

Her body trembled in anger. She endured the side effects of exchanging blood and manipulated four swords as they shot out, her pale pink sleeves fluttering in the air.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Margaret's strength had not been on full display in the Illusion Battlefield, and under this seemingly dire situation, she attacked without much thought of how much strength she employed. The four swords instantly reached Zen, spinning in a circle around him. They ford a defensive sword array, instantly creating distance between the others and Zen.

The sword array was so powerful that even Rocher and the rest of them grew wary of it. They could only retreat.

Margaret ca to stand firmly in front of Zen and shouted, her voice full of wrath, “Don't you dare ambush Zen! You're courting death!” Her tone was insolent. She had never taken these ace talents or Godly Geniuses too seriously.

Lucille pursed her lips, revealing traces of mischievousness and ridicule on her cold, gorgeous face.

Kurt and Karl did not utter a word.

Rocher knew of Margaret's personality. A look of helplessness flashed in his eyes as he reminded her, “Be careful now! Watch your back…”

“What?”

Margaret spluttered, sowhat stunned. Slowly, she felt the malicious aura surging from behind her.

She turned her head and saw a blue sword heading straight for her face!

Margaret would never have thought that Zen's sword would co at her. In fact, she had already summoned four swords, so with a raise of her hand, she should be successful in blocking the attack that was coming her way.

After all, in this state, Zen was not in complete control of himself. His attack was not that powerful.

However, Margaret's way of thinking was different. Or, it could be said that she was prone to be emotional, especially while facing Zen.

She did not try to dodge or block the strike, instead, she internally grieved over why Zen was attacking her.

'Will he tell why he's doing this before I die?' she wondered to herself, the disbelief obvious on her face.

The sword was not slow to co. In an instant, it was only an inch away from Margaret. As it charged straight at Margaret, about to pierce through her, Zen suddenly roared as his left hand clenched into a fist. He punched the hand holding the sword.

The Thunder Wind Divine Sword flew out of his hand under the great strength and the tip of the sword diverted from Margaret's face. But as the sword flew out, the sword edge spiraled back, cutting off a small section of the hair at the back of Margaret's ears. Her hair fluttered in the air. The sword had been so close to hacking her body to pieces!

Clang!

The long sword fell to the ground…

Zen gritted his teeth as he panted heavily. He cursed in anger. “Are you a fool?!”

Margaret looked at Zen blankly, her eyes full of confusion. She felt betrayed. She had almost been killed by Zen just now, and now he was calling her a fool…

In the Illusion Battlefield, she had not had many opportunities to be with Zen. Perhaps, she thought, she was truly unimportant to this man.

“You… What are you up to?” Margaret's eyes turned red. She and her master had traveled thousands of miles to co here. She had endured the pain of exchanging blood. Now that she had finally t Zen again, she did not expect him to treat her like this.

Every ti the poisonous malicious aura erupted, it lasted for so ti. Zen had gradually controlled his body in these past few days, but it was difficult to suppress his urges swiftly.

After all, Zen was trying to adapt to the malicious aura while controlling his own body, so that he could comprehend the Emotion Closing Godly Way. But now, to keep Margaret safe, he had to suppress the malicious aura. This was going in the opposite way he wanted.

Zen waved his hand and ignored the turmoil in his body. He gritted his teeth. “Can soone please take her away…”

Whoosh!

In a flash, Lucille gestured at Margaret to leave. She was amazed. Lucille had never encountered any woman as stupid as Margaret, who had failed to sense that Zen was troubled by the malicious aura in his body. Lucille did not even bother explaining it to Margaret.

As emotional as Margaret was, she finally realized what was truly going on. Her ears reddened and her face turned pale, making her look rather adorable.

After a long while, the malicious aura within Zen's body cald down. He finally returned to normal. Wearing an angry expression on his face, he strode towards Margaret. “Didn't you know that it was dangerous for you to act like that?”

Just now, he had almost killed Margaret with his sword. Zen himself was shocked.

A look of grievance appeared on Margaret's face, like she was a child being scolded for having done sothing wrong. She knew her fault, and she did not dare refute him. “I didn't see what you were doing…”

Seeing Margaret's pale face, Zen knew that she had gone through a blood exchange. His eyes softened. She had good intentions. There were too many people in this world who wished only to do good, but often could not help but do harm instead. So of them even lost what they had in the process.

Zen was about to reprimand her, but he bit back the words on his lips and reached out to touch her hair. “Next ti, don't act like this.”

“Okay…” Margaret pursed her lips and nodded. A bright smile made its way to her face. She stood on her tiptoes and wrapped her arms around Zen's waist, inhaling his scent.

Zen knew that Margaret's promise was only perfunctory. She never learned her lessons by heart. He heaved a sigh helplessly…

As Nathan and Lawson saw this scene before them, they both sneered at the sa ti.

Currently, except for Shania, all the top ten warriors of the Illusion Battlefield had arrived.

But there was no news yet from the Celestial Position.

Margaret wished that no one would co to disturb her. She felt strange about Zen's way of cultivating Emotion Closing Godly Way. She joined the others on the second day when Zen went out of control. However, she was more of a troublemaker and soon was asked to stay by the sidelines to watch.

Zen's control over his state was getting better and easier. It was only a matter of ti until he beca a Godly Genius.

Finally, the Celestial Position sent soone over. Master Feng summoned the nine warriors for a gathering.

In the past few days, the Celestial Position had been making plans, and now it was finally ti to see what they were up to.
