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

Chapter 647 Sinner Level 6

For millennia, Sarawood's family had been in charge of the finances in the realm of sinners.

During his youth, Sarawood was not yet a deity, and his family was merely another household within the realm of the sinners.

However, everything changed when the Lord of Competition recognized Sarawood's potential and bestowed upon him a mysterious item that could elevate him to the status of an Ascendant God, entrusting his family with the management of the realm's finances.

Thus, the Lord of Competition had shown great favor to Sarawood.

Recently, Sarawood's family had received intelligence that Henry was a crucial pawn in the resurrection of the Lord of Competition.

It was an unexpected encounter today.

While Sarawood was inclined to assist, other deities, siding with Mr. A, viewed the resurrection of the Lord of Competition with skepticism.

"Henry, the fate of the Lord of Competition's resurrection rests in your hands. I will try to offer some support," Sarawood silently vowed, before departing Sinner Level 6 with the three deities.

...

After a long journey, Henry and his companions finally arrived in the region of Sinner Level 6.

Lune, assuming the role of an elder, began to explain, "The industrial and commercial activities in Sinner Level 6 are not as developed, and mercenary organizations capable of earning merit points are nearly extinct. Yet, this place remains the most crucial reserve base in the entire realm of sinners."

"It is also known as a sacred religious site."

"Here, you can encounter followers of various deities. They live in communities, forming religious groups dedicated to their respective deities."

"The power of religion consolidates the faith in deities, creating organizations that can be likened to armies. While deities do not rely on such external forces for their strength, these religious groups play a significant role in spreading the faith."

"Therefore, this place also serves as a communication hub for numerous deities, with some even capable of teleporting directly here."

As Lune elaborated, Henry furrowed his brows, realizing the complexities of Sinner Level 6 surpassed his expectations.

After a moment of contemplation, Henry voiced his thoughts, "I've heard that thousands of years ago, Sinner Level 6 was the exclusive territory of the Lord of Competition, and other religious forces were minimal."

Lune nodded, his expression turning somewhat melancholic as he gazed towards the distant sky.

With a sigh, he said, "Yes, that was when the religion of the Lord of Competition was most vibrant."

"Now, with the Lord of Competition having vanished for thousands of years, his religion persists, but it has undoubtedly faced hardships over the years."

"The religion of the Lord of Competition is key to his resurrection. Religion can provide a wealth of faith, so we must first ensure that the religion flourishes."

With that, Lune gestured for everyone to follow and headed west, towards the religious sect of the Lord of Competition.

As they journeyed, Henry began to notice the diversity and complexity of Sinner Level 6.

It wasn't just deities who had followers here; even ordinary Ascendant Gods could garner disciples.

Henry passed by the grounds of over a dozen religious sects, some as small as having only two or three members.

The larger sects, on encountering strangers, were exceedingly enthusiastic, eagerly inviting the group to join their deity's fold.

However, upon being refused, their expressions turned notably sour. It seemed that the power of faith was of great importance to deities.

Observing these various religious gatherings, Henry reflected deeply on the significance and influence of faith in this realm.

Perhaps the power of faith provided by these religions plays a crucial role for deities.

Henry wondered if Mr. A had any religious sects here that could be destroyed to weaken him.

However, after some thought, Henry dismissed the idea as unlikely. Given that Mr. A was a deity of the Abyss, his religious influence was probably concentrated there, much like how deities such as the Lord of Mechanoid and Death established their religions within their own Divine Realms.

This not only allowed them to directly harness the power of faith but also enabled them to address any internal issues more swiftly.

Soon, the group arrived at the religious stronghold of the Lord of Competition, situated atop a desert.

The land was reddish-brown, and the inhabitants used white tents as their dwellings.

The conditions seemed harsh, occupying a less favorable part of Sinner Level 6.

Henry quickly gleaned this information as they surveyed the religious site.

They were about to delve deeper into the religious community to inquire about their leadership when they noticed a commotion at the camp's edge.

A group of people was tightly gathered, seemingly embroiled in an argument, and not all were dressed alike.

Only a third wore the white garments of the Lord of Competition's followers; the rest were adorned in various colors, representing different religions.

"Timing is often more crucial than planning; it seems we've arrived just as trouble is brewing," Lune commented with a light smile.

Henry nodded, then patted Lune's shoulder and called the woman from behind him forward, "Let's go take a closer look."

Approaching the edge of the crowd, they heard the followers of the Lord of Competition's religion in a heated argument with another group, adding to the tense atmosphere.

"You're pushing us too far. Our religion of the Lord of Competition has already relocated from bustling areas to this desolate desert, and yet you continue to press us relentlessly."

"Do you really think the followers of the God of Competition are pushovers? The Lord of Competition might not have fallen, and for all the wrongs you've done to his followers, he will surely repay you twofold."

The leader of the opposition, representing a colorful mix of other religious factions, burst into laughter, "Still pinning your hopes on your Lord of Competition? You followers have been deceived for thousands of years. Generations of your elders have perished, and yet you remain so deluded."

"I advise you to abandon your faith in the Lord of Competition. Join our deities' religions instead; you might even receive a response from a deity."

Hearing this provocation, the followers of the Lord of Competition's religion were instantly enraged, brandishing their weapons, ready to clash with their adversaries.

Henry and Lune quietly observed the entire confrontation from the outskirts.

Henry remarked, "The followers of the Lord of Competition's religion have indeed had a tough time these years. Had we arrived a few days later, these people might have become casualties under the blades of others."

"How outrageous! How dare they treat the followers of one of the greatest deities in such a manner!"

Lune, shaking with fury and as a loyal servant of the Lord of Competition, held deep affection for these followers.

Seeing them bullied in such a way was intolerable to him.

Pushing through the crowd that blocked his path, Lune made his way into the midst of the throng.

With a swift motion, he slapped the representative of the opposing religious force who had mocked them moments before.

"You little rascal, daring to bully the followers of the Lord of Competition, it seems you're in dire need of discipline."

The leader who was slapped covered his right cheek in anger, then pointed at Lune and demanded, "How dare you, old man! Are you seeking death? Do you even know which deity's follower I am?"

Lune spat a thick glob of spit onto the ground, then delivered another fierce slap across the other cheek of the man, snarling, "It doesn't matter if it's you or your deity standing here, I would treat you the same."

Lune had already assessed that the highest level among these adversaries was the leader at level 94, whose combat strength was inferior to his own.

With his intimidation, their willingness to fight significantly waned.

"To the followers of the Lord of Competition, do you still remember the faith you're sworn to defend? Strike back! Let out all the grievances you've been harboring!"

"From this day forward, I won't allow you to endure such humiliation!"

Lune's voice boomed with righteous fury.

Instantly, under Lune's lead, the followers of the Lord of Competition launched their counterattack, charging forward and engaging the followers of the other deities.

A chaotic brawl ensued between the two sides.

Seeing the unfolding scene, Henry didn't stand idle.

He directed his woman and Sarah to flank the enemy from the outskirts, trapping them in a pincer move.

With this formidable support, the disparate group of followers from other deities, who had only come together temporarily, quickly found themselves overpowered and beat a hasty retreat.

Standing triumphantly atop a vanquished foe, Lune bellowed with a commanding presence, "We have won!"

In Lune's mind, he envisioned the followers rushing towards him, jubilantly tossing him into the air to celebrate their victory.

However, contrary to his expectations, the followers seemed to pay him no heed, their gazes locked in astonishment on Henry instead.

Soon enough, someone knelt before Henry, proclaiming loudly, "A favored one of the gods has come to our rescue!"

"Thank you for your aid, favored one!"

Surrounded by the people, Henry found himself lifted and thrown into the air amidst cheers of joy and gratitude.

Lune, on the other hand, watched this scene unfold with a bewildered expression.

Wait, what's going on here?
