Finally, the dazzling light tapered off and disappeared.
The semi-governing god was lying on the ground and moaning in pain.
Only one-tenth of his body was now still intact.
To everyone's surprise, there were Buddhist symbols on what was left of him, preventing him from regenerating.
'What the hell is going on?'
The scene caused everyone present to shudder.
A semi-governing god had almost gotten killed in one round.
He even didn't have the strength to fight back.
The dead monk was too powerful. His terrifying strength impressed everyone there.
So after they had recovered from shock, the masters activated their bodily movement skills and fled.
Fortunately, the dead monk didn't make a move.
With his head down, he sat cross-legged at the stone table, motionless.
"I don't think he wanted us to disturb the divine gods in the coffins,"
a master said in a panic.
"It seems that the legend is true.
We can't disturb the divine gods lying in the coffins, or bad luck will come,"
Stein said with a grim expression.
They all landed far away from the coffins and didn't dare to even look at them any longer.
"What should we do now?"
Everyone exchanged confused looks.
"I think we'd better leave.
Something is wrong with this world. I've had a bad feeling ever since we arrived,"
Stein said.
"But we are so close to unveiling the secrets of the Shore of Rebirth.
We won't get another chance like this,"
someone whispered.
"Life is more important than a secret,"
another person who cherished his life retorted.
"It looks like that we can't open the coffins on these mountains, but maybe we can start with the Millstone of Reincarnation.
If we enter the Millstone of Reincarnation, we might learn something about the Shore of Rebirth,"
someone suggested suddenly.
"That's a good idea. Let's go there and see if we can find something."
The other masters agreed on exploring the Millstone of Reincarnation because
they were unwilling to leave empty-handed.
Immediately, they made their way towards the Millstone of Reincarnation.
Stein unwillingly followed.
'What... What's going on?
It seems that my Reincarnation Token is moving on its own.'
Just as he was about to follow them, Austin noticed his Reincarnation Token acting up.
He turned to look at the monk's dead body that was perched on the altar.
It appeared to have its eyes on his token.
Painted with confusion, Austin watched speechlessly as the Reincarnation Token came out of his body and floated in the air.
"It is really the Reincarnation Token,"
a loud voice said.
Startled, Austin couldn't help but take a step back.
He realized that the owner of the voice was the dead monk.
After just having witnessed the dead monk
kill a semi-governing god within seconds, Austin knew that he was no match for the dead monk.
Wasting no time, he immediately communicated with the Reincarnation Token and tried to control it back to him.
However, much to his surprise, the Reincarnation Token wasn't under his control.
