Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple



In the pitch-black void, John used a skill to illuminate his surroundings. 

He was deeply perplexed by the current situation. 

He had just launched a potentially fatal blow at Mystery Vanguard, and even if it couldn't eliminate Mystery Vanguard entirely, it should have inflicted significant damage. 

However, just as his attack was about to take effect, he found himself in this entirely dark space.

Within this pitch-black void, John couldn't perceive the presence of anything else. 

It seemed that even the concept of time had vanished within this space.

Instinctively, John opened his communication channel, and as before, any information within his channel was shielded from the knowledge of other players.

John also instinctively checked the envelope given to him by Duke Arsena. 

The envelope ensured that every letter he wrote would be swiftly delivered to Duke Arsena. 

Likewise, Duke Arsena could promptly respond using the same envelope.

John detailed his current situation in writing and placed the paper in the envelope. 

However, after waiting for five minutes, he still hadn't received any response.

This also meant that the envelope given to him by Duke Arsena was ineffective within this dark space. 

Faced with this situation, John didn't panic. 

He took a few deep breaths to calm himself. 

In such circumstances, he needed to analyze calmly to find a way out of this predicament.

John didn't stay in one place; instead, he chose to continue moving forward to explore his surroundings. 

After a while, he suddenly noticed a distant speck of light. 

Upon spotting it, he hastened in the direction of the light at the fastest pace possible. 

Soon, he arrived at the location of the light, which turned out to be a small house.

Clearly, the house was inhabited. John used a Detection spell, but it had no effect on this particular house. 

After some hesitation, John decided to check the area around the house. 

However, apart from some planted vegetation, there was nothing particularly unusual in the vicinity.

In the end, John returned to the front door of the house. 

After some contemplation, he knocked on the door. Soon, a voice from inside, elderly and hoarse, responded.

"You shouldn't waste any more time; there's simply no way out of here for you!" 

The voice filled John with relief. 

Although the information provided was quite negative, at least the person seemed willing to share some insights.

"Why would you say that? Do you even know where we are? I ended up here while battling Mystery Vanguard. How did you end up here?" John fired several questions in rapid succession. 

The elderly, hoarse voice inside the house didn't immediately respond but instead let out a sigh.

After a short while, the door to the house opened, and an elderly man wearing a tattered white magus robe stepped out. 

His hair and beard had turned completely white, and he appeared to be well over 100 years old.

"I too was trapped here while battling Mystery Vanguard, but I can indeed answer the questions you asked earlier. When I say there's no way out, it's because I've tried many methods. I can see that your strength is top-notch, but I must remind you that my power is also quite formidable. Have you ever heard of the name Nald, the Legendary Magus?"

"If you've heard that name, then you'd know that Nald is the Legendary Magus renowned for his mastery of spatial teleportation, and I am that very Nald," he stated in a subdued tone. 

Despite his low tone, it was evident that Nald was genuinely pleased with John's presence. 

After all, Nald had likely been stuck in this illusion for a very long time.

John had indeed come across books related to Nald in the Great Library of Storm City. 

The descriptions of Nald in those books were incredibly reverent. Nald was hailed as the most powerful among the Legendary Magi, and he even held the title of Space Lord. 

Nald could escape from any sealed space, and as a Legendary Magus specializing in spatial magic, he possessed a formidable authority over space seals. 

The Great Library's books even documented how Nald had sealed a Devil from the Dark Realm into an unknown plane.

For such a master of spatial magic, it was astonishing to learn that Nald had been trapped in the Abyssal Illusion, or as he preferred to call it, the Mystery Illusion, for at least 400 years. 

John had gathered from the books in the Great Library that it had been 400 years since Nald was last seen by people.

"I've definitely heard of your illustrious name! If you truly are that Legendary Magus, haven't you been trapped here for over 400 years? During these 400 years, haven't you found any way to escape?" John inquired.

Nald, upon hearing John's words, managed to produce a hint of a smile on his wrinkled face. 

He responded somewhat mockingly, "I haven't been trapped here for just 400 years; it's been over 700 years since my confinement began. Everything you've learned about Nald in the last 300 years has all been orchestrated by the Mystery Prophet! He trapped me here and assumed my identity, using it to interact directly with the Naga Tribe and other Order Faction members. I'm sure the Mystery Prophet has gathered a wealth of information from the Order Faction. The Mystery Saint appears to be on the verge of resurrection, and Mystery forces are about to launch an assault on the Order Faction!"

Regarding your question about whether I've tried other methods to escape, I can only tell you that I've exhausted every idea I could think of. There's simply no way to escape from here using any form of spatial magic."

The information provided by Nald was extremely valuable to John. 

If what he said was true, then John had to find a way to escape this illusion without relying on spatial magic.

John's first thought was, of course, his powerful Sea God's Blessing. 

In most cases, Sea God's Blessing was effective only for water-element-related spells. 

However, Sea God also held a certain authority over space. 

Perhaps by using the power of the Sea God, he could successfully escape with Nald's cooperation.

"Lord Nald, I need your cooperation. Perhaps with our combined efforts, we can find a way to escape successfully. The reason you couldn't escape from here is that you rely solely on spatial magic. Maybe this place is designed to restrict the use of spatial magic. With my assistance, you should be able to come up with new escape methods, right?" John suggested.

Nald gave John a slight glance. 

In Nald's view, John had not fully grasped his words, and he found John a bit too confident. 

However, Nald had been trapped here for 700 years, and since John was willing to cooperate and try alternative escape methods, Nald naturally didn't choose to refuse. 

After all, he had been extremely bored during those 700 years.

"You're not entirely wrong, and I'll cooperate with your plan. But let me warn you in advance, it's best not to use dark power or Holy Light abilities. They will only attract the Mystery creatures within the illusion. While I can use spatial magic to fend off their attacks temporarily, I won't be able to assist you further. The Mystery Saint must have a strong aversion to entities from the Dark Realm and Holy Light incarnations; otherwise, why would the Mystery creatures always prioritize attacking members of the Dark Faction and Order Faction with Holy Light attributes?" Nald cautioned.

Nald had revealed more information related to the Mystery Saint, and John made sure to remember all of it. 

However, he didn't have the time to continue with more questions. 

John wanted to escape from the illusion as soon as possible because he had a strong suspicion that the Mystery Saint had trapped him here to prevent him from aiding others.

The people of the Naga Tribe were undoubtedly facing even greater dangers. 

John needed to escape quickly and provide assistance to them. 

He even suspected that Mystery Vanguard's sudden appearance in the Naga Tribe was meant to trap him within this illusion.
