He stayed in God's Eye for a thousand years after all. Hahahaha!\" Aridam burst into a fit of laughter but no one laughed along with him. It didn't matter to the man, he laughed without any awkwardness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aphosis glanced at Equilius for a moment before turning his gaze back to the forbidden region in the form of a horizontal '8' — the symbol of infinity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though his gut feeling told him that something was off, his rationality suppressed the irrational message.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There's no logic in Equilius sabotaging Varian. And it's not like he could even if wanted under their perception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yami, on the other hand, had a big smile on her face. \"Don't worry about it. He's an adventurer at heart. His track record makes it clear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she was a normal person instead of a divine being, she'd be sweating due to the immense anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the divine rankers were having a small talk about topics that would alter the trajectory of the entire alliance, Varian was facing a tentacle rain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky cracked and the ground split. Everything in sight was enveloped by an infesting red mist, the mist of death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hurry! Hurry up!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The adults took the children and ran for it. Most of them were powerful celestials who would've wrecked kingdoms. But here, they were powerless to even survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the handful of divine rankers in the group did not take it all on themselves and ensured their safety, most people would have not survived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The divine rankers themselves were having a tough time warding off the parasitic tentacles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of them managed it but a few…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Arghhh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The orc who was laughing and chatting with Varian a few hours ago was pierced by the tentacle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body bulged as intense red energy flooded his being. The eyes of this orc who looked friendly changed. The curious and easy going light was gone, leaving a blank gaze. The gaze of a drone in the hive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Surrender to the truth!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His form expanded to touch the sky and he punched down, red mist covering his fist as it landed with tremendous force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A red shockwave swept the land, sending tremors that could be felt even in a long, long distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The physical destruction was less of a concern as the red mist began to corrupt and infest other Undead who were unlucky enough to be in the vicinity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian had already fled to a considerable distance and shouldn't have had a problem. But being a living being, these things affected him more than he'd like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even worse, the death energy that pervaded every inch of purgatory was still intensely trying to convert him into an Undead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing these two forces, he quickly fell into a bad infection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once more, the nightmare repeated. Parasites were borne out of his arms, legs and abdomen, tearing away his flesh and blood, sucking away his life force and draining his aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as scary as it was dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as the power range of these invading creatures was incredibly high, Varian struggled to find a way out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The attackers had either mid rank 1 or maybe even high rank 1…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Konstant!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An arm built out of aura grabbed him from behind and pulled him with an incredible force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The infesting energy inside him shook and tried to resist but Klynster forced his own power inside, neutralizing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian crashed to the ground, in the middle of the divine rankers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beams, spheres and seeds of death energy blasted the sky, inflicting on the tentacles a great deal of damage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, they were outnumbered badly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What to do…what to do…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did they even get our location? This rarely happened!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Argh, fuck! Fuck it all!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike the disturbed colleagues, Klynster remained incredibly calm, a thing that did not escape Varian's attention and it drew his appreciation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll distract them away. You lot can leave.\" The woman whose revealed her past life to be a scammer stepped forward and said with a resolute expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No! Juie, you're not going!\" An elven undead in the group shouted in despair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Someone has to go.\" Her expression did not waver in the slightest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew what was ahead. Once she took that step, her fate was sealed. She knew it, but was ready for it anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elf gritted his teeth and spoke words that would prick the most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about your dream? You wanted to repent for your sins! You scammed people, pushed them into poverty, even led to deaths! If you go die like this, you're just a coward who wants to give up!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman's back trembled and she lowered her head. With a desolate chuckle, she stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone in our camp dreamed of leaving this hell. But how many succeeded? Zero. It's a good dream to have, but this is our reality.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a kick to the ground, she shot into the sky and before Varian could even react, she exploded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The violent shockwaves swept away the parasitic creatures and a beam of red energy that emanated from her shot them into a distant land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The force was so intense that Varian was knocked out in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he came to his senses, he found himself in a cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking out, he saw they were now in a shelter similar to the one they previously were at.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Undead were arranging things in a hurry, strengthening stealth of the shelter as much as they could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian found at least 20% of the people were missing. Despite the best efforts of the divine rankers, a lot of them died.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haaa~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Klynster, seated on a small rock, sighed with a tired expression. The group of divine rankers gathered around, their terrible mood evident on their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian silently sat with the group and looked at them with a complicated expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was saved twice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will take you out of this place.\" His words caused every Undead in the shelter to freeze in their tracks and violently jerk their head toward his direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Klynster's eyes shook, his body trembling violently. The divine rankers looked at him with intense fear and hope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian sighed under his breath. \"I might have a way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1051,"2026-06-06T07:58:57.888Z",1,"novelbin.me","8790e8c6b94ef8ccc268aa6efcc0fb147833925b4ce430ff7d9cbd448b616845","divine-path-system-chapter-1632","divine-path-system-chapter-1630",1773,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdivine-path-system-cover.jpg"]
