Chapter 56 Becoming a God
Under such circumstances, how could these nobles dare to go to the Cathedral of the Temple of Light to hold the sacrificial ceremony?
I'm afraid they just achieved sanctuary in the sacrificial ceremony held by the Pope of Light in the morning, and went to the Sea of the Dead in the underworld with their families in the evening.
At the very least, these nobles would not seek death before the Pope of Light figured out how the people of the Frost and Snow Empire killed his own sanctuaries right under his nose.
To be honest, everyone suspected that the person who killed Gasike was the Emperor of the Frost Empire.
Even the Pope of Light of the Temple of Light had such doubts in his heart.
After all, the Pope of Light was also confident that in the entire Wakanda plane, except Ceres, no one could kill his people under his nose without being discovered.
The reason why Ceres did this was very simple.
According to the agreement between the Pope of Light and Ceres, the struggle for power between the Temple of Light and the Frost and Snow Empire is mainly about the battles between the legions formed by the newly promoted holy domains.
In the first three years, the strong men in the Holy Land were not allowed to take action, and their respective legions had to fight.
If one side can defeat the other side's legion within three years to determine the winner, then the Holy Land will have secured victory without having to take any action.
Three years later, the sanctuaries of both sides intervened in the battlefield.
However, they are basically battles between sanctuaries, and between legions and knight groups.
If one side's sanctuary is defeated, it all depends on whether the other side's sanctuary will show mercy to the other side's legion.
When Gaske sacrificed himself, he established a sanctuary and formed a knighthood. However, the Frost Empire did not have a new sanctuary to form a legion.
Once Gaske chooses to attack a territory in the Frost and Snow Empire that is not guarded by a holy land, the Temple of Light can be said to have already secured victory.
Judging from the current territories of the Temple of Light and the Frost and Snow Empire, once the Temple of Light occupies one or two more duchies, the territory of the Temple of Light will almost be comparable to that of the Frost and Snow Empire.
The proud Ceres could never accept such a result.
The Pope of Light is just a lower-level god. What qualifications does he have to be on par with him?
Even a tie in territory is not acceptable!
If Locke had failed to kill Gaske, Ceres would have definitely taken action against Gaske.
What is now in front of everyone is that unless a new sanctuary appears in the Frost and Snow Empire first, His Majesty Ceres may not continue to take action against the nobles who have surrendered to the Temple of Light and become sanctuaries.
Under such circumstances, the learning atmosphere in the major warrior academies and magic academies within the Frost and Snow Empire is truly unprecedented.
As long as you are a genius, there will be many nobles who will spend a lot of resources to support you.
It's not that these nobles are loyal to the Frost and Snow Empire, but that they eagerly hope that a new sanctuary can be born in the Frost and Snow Empire as soon as possible.
In this way, they can continue to look for sacrifices, go to the Temple of Light to offer sacrifices, break through, and enter a higher realm.
It would be a lie for Ceres to say that he didn't know what the nobles in his country were doing.
However, Ceres' needs are no different from those of these nobles.
He also hopes that a new sanctuary will be born in his country as soon as possible.
As for those who surrendered to the Temple of Light?
To be honest, he really didn't take those guys seriously. One side relied on his own talent to comprehend the mysteries of the laws and broke through to the Holy Land, while the other side took the wrong path and relied on sacrifice to obtain the help of the Lord God to break through to the Holy Land. The two were not at the same level at all.
In the battle that Locke participated in, if the Temple of Light had not concealed a Sanctuary warrior from the beginning, even if it was one against two, the commander of the Fifth Legion might have been at a disadvantage, but he would not have been killed so easily.
It can be said that in Ceres' eyes, the holy realms achieved through sacrifice and the divine realms achieved through refining the godhead are not worthy of Ceres's attention.
……
On this day, Locke, who was practicing, suddenly understood a profound secret of the Mystery of the Fog.
When Locke understood the mystery of the law, he suddenly found that, guided by this mystery, the mystery of the law of "The Mystery of the Fog" that he had comprehended instantly became one, and a feeling of "perfection" floated in Locke's heart.
"My Mystery of the Mist Illusion Law is profound and has been perfected!"
When this thought emerged from Locke's heart, he suddenly felt that the whole world became quiet.
It was as if space was still and time stood still, and a huge force descended upon Locke Territory.
This is the arrival of the rules of heaven and earth!
The fluctuations of the laws of heaven and earth could not be sensed by the strong ones in the Holy Domain, but for the strong ones at the God level, this kind of fluctuation was too obvious.
Therefore, when the rules of heaven and earth came into being, the only two god-level powerful beings in the Wakanda plane both set their sights on Lord Locke.
"Hahahaha, it really is him!"
There was no need for his spiritual consciousness to radiate over there. When Ceres saw the direction where the rules of heaven and earth were descending, he knew that the person who caused the rules of heaven and earth to descend and become a god this time must be Locke.
Temple of Light, inside the Cathedral.
When the rules of heaven and earth came into being, the Pope of Light had already turned his gaze over.
"Sure enough, the one who became a god was the Holy Land of the Frost and Snow Empire..."
The Pope of Light sighed, his expression somewhat solemn.
During the time in Wakanda, the main reason why the Temple of Light maintained a certain tacit understanding with the Frost Empire was that he knew how to be humble and did not really annoy Ceres.
Moreover, because of the war launched by the Temple of Light, the people of the Frost Empire contributed a lot more power of faith to Ceres than before, which prevented Ceres from taking actions that "bully the weak with the strong".
Now, the Frost Empire has one more God Realm, and the Pope of Light doesn't know whether Ceres will let this God Realm fight against him.
If this new god doesn't like the Temple of Light and wants to have a real fight with me, I might have to give up the Wakanda plane.
"Forget it. After this new God Realm master completes his promotion, I will go meet him in person!"
Having made up his mind, the Pope of Light no longer hesitated. He walked out of the Holy See of Light, turned into a ray of white light, and flew towards the place where the rules of heaven and earth descended.
Since it was a visit, he naturally had to go in person.
Sometimes, it is wise to appropriately expose some of your strength so that your opponent will give up.
The Pope of Light believed that as long as the new God knew the gap between him and himself, he would make the right choice.
He spent so much time in the Wakanda plane and finally developed into what he is now. As long as there is a glimmer of opportunity, the Pope of Light would want to fight for it again.
