This person, naturally, was Ethan.
After subduing everyone with a single move, he felt sothing calling out to him.
It was the seven-color crown placed on the altar.
To be precise, it was his ’True God’s Na’ being attracted to the crown.
The ’True God’s Na’ longed to completely devour that crown.
So Ethan stepped onto the stairs, gradually closing the distance, drawing its aura into the ’True God’s Na’ bit by bit.
Finally, he donned the crown.
In the instant he put it on, countless pieces of information flooded in.
He nearly had his brain burst apart by the deluge of information.
But fortunately, the ’True God’s Na’ absorbed it all flawlessly.
The only thing left for Ethan were so residual fragnts to gradually ponder over.
The only things he could truly feel were the unprecedented sensation of the seawater and wind, and a complex true na flowing like water in green hue.
It was outlined by streams of green, with faint scales that seed to ripple; just one glance made it feel as if the roaring sea breeze and tides could be heard.
The true aning was hard to grasp because it was entirely composed of ancient languages.
Through the ’True God’s Na’, Ethan could only understand one aning:
King of the Beihai.
This was precisely the origin of the na he answered to Heisenberg.
As he donned the crown,
a vine extended toward this true na in the swirling air, tightly coiling around the ’True God’s Na.’
The vine resembled an infusion tube, gradually drawing nutrients from it.
Transformation through essence was only a matter of ti.
Withdrawing his attention from this true na, Ethan once again heard Saint Kuanti’s prayers.
Only then did he understand that he hadn’t resurrected Saint Kuanti.
Saint Kuanti had long vanished into the snow and wind over a century ago.
What was left now was rely an earth-bound spirit clinging to a certain obsession.
He had adhered to the vow he made back then.
He stood guard at this place, accompanied by the ice, snow, and ocean, walking the path, watching over the spirit, until death ceased him.
Even in death, he still thought of this land, guarded this land.
The Sun God Sect had once bestowed upon him the title of a saint only to later try to retract it. However, regardless of what he believed in, he was already a true saint.
So Ethan gently patted his shoulder and responded to his prayers once more.
"I promise you."
Saint Kuanti finally stopped his prayers, a faint satisfied smile appeared on his face.
The next mont,
the entire space began to shatter.
This was sothing Ethan did not foresee.
He had initially intended to finish responding to Saint Kuanti and then deal with the three troubleso individuals.
But by then, they had already fled in all directions.
As the space disintegrated completely, Vincent, Klei, and Anya found themselves engulfed in danger.
He could only relinquish chasing down those three and use his remaining strength to save Vincent, Anya, and the others.
By the ti he gathered everyone together,
the entire space had thoroughly fractured open.
The next mont,
those images from history beca void.
Only the cold snow fell before them once again.
It was snowing again.
They had returned.
From the layers of history.
This adventure finally ca to an end.
Though it was freezing, everyone’s reaction was first one of relief.
For at last, they had escaped the crisis.
They returned to the present Saint Kuanti.
Except the previous feeling of dead silence enveloping the city had entirely dissipated.
Even the black ice, visible everywhere, had lted away.
This ant that the pollution was also eliminated.
The seven-color crown was most likely the source of the pollution.
Now, it was resting atop Ethan’s head.
At this mont, Vincent seed to have recognized Ethan’s identity and wanted to speak, but Ethan gestured for him not to.
Because he was sensing the presence of Saint Kuanti.
If he could still use Saint Kuanti’s power, he could instantly track down those three who fled and eliminate them.
Alas,
after exiting the historical layers, Saint Kuanti’s power had dispersed.
The only thing Ethan could feel was a faint trace of power slowly sinking into Saint Kuanti’s long-dead ground.
It seed as though it had vanished completely, or perhaps fallen into slumber.
Yet, all of Saint Kuanti suddenly beca warr.
"Do you have another robe and mask?"
After perceiving the environnt, Ethan looked toward Huoyan.
Huoyan was startled for a mont, then quickly nodded, hurriedly pulling out a robe and mask from his pocket to hand to Ethan.
After receiving them, Ethan avoided everyone and changed, then packed away his own before reappearing.
The group looked at him, but a peculiar silence fell.
They couldn’t help but remain silent.
After all, everyone had witnessed his coronation mont.
Originally, Huoyan and Shadow thought Ethan to be rely a formidable expert, but now, it was clear he was no ordinary master.
Saint Kuanti had overpowered both Wenster, who was at least a level four, possibly five, true nar, and the equally matched Heisenberg.
Not to ntion another mysterious, definitely not weak, figure in black robes.
Saint Kuanti’s strength was undeniable.
And yet this powerful figure had prayed to Ethan.
Moreover, Ethan had obtained that ultimate crown and eradicated the pollution.
What sort of figure must he be...?
"I can retake the contract, I promise to say nothing," Shadow took the initiative.
Huoyan could only vigorously nod in agreent.
However, Ethan didn’t look at them, instead turning to Vincent and Klei.
"I’m so glad you’re still alive."
Vincent embraced him tightly.
"You rascal, how could you co alone? Don’t you know your status? What would happen to the family if you died?"
"I’m still alive, aren’t I?"
"Hey, what about ? I’m alive too!" Klei shouted hurriedly.
The dust finally settled.
Though they hadn’t managed to eliminate those three,
they should have already fled and won’t return.
After all, the absolute dominance Ethan had shown before was a narrow escape for them.
Even with their strong abilities, they wouldn’t dare co back to court death.
At least, Ethan and the rest were safe now.
"Let’s eat sothing first, take a rest, and then talk about other things,"
Huoyan was now completely obedient to Ethan. Hearing his proposal, he quickly took out food, water, and cooking utensils.
Shadow helped lay everything out.
Yet in the end, they signed a soul contract.
By then, it was already nearing sunset.
Ti had passed ambiguously for Ethan and the others while inside; they couldn’t tell how many days had gone by.
After eating clean food and drinking hot soup, no ancient people suddenly attacked from outside anymore.
Finally, everyone could take a proper rest.
Watching the last of the twilight on the horizon, the first peaceful night had finally co.
