After a while, the group reached the center of the continent.
They paused in their tracks when an alarmingly huge, ancient altar appeared in front of them.
The altar was engraved with various patterns, including mountains, rivers, animals, humans, gods, ghosts, different other creatures, and mysterious symbols they didn't know.
However, the thing that grasped their curiosity the most was the countless coffins that floated around it.
All at once, their eyes fell on a figure sitting cross-legged in the middle of the altar.
He was a Taoist priest.
A robe was draped over his shoulders, a fly whisk was clutched in his right hand, and he was sitting quietly with his eyes closed.
The Taoist priest's body was covered in a thick layer of dust. It appeared he hadn't moved in a very long time.
Chapman had walked onto the steps leading to altar, but he stopped too.
Turning around, he flashed them a triumphant smile.
"Hey, guys, how brave are you? This altar is a part of the road of reincarnation.
Any fights here will result in trouble,"
he said with a grin.
'Whoa. This altar is a part of the road of reincarnation,'
Austin repeated in his mind.
'I bet Chapman has entered the Land of Void before. That must be the reason why he recognizes this altar.'
Atticus' spiritual soul slowly climbed the steps to reach Chapman's level.
"Chapman, are you sure that they can't attack us?
We are surrounded by them again,"
Atticus asked, his voice trembling.
Normally, he was strong, but he had sustained serious injuries.
He couldn't rebuild his flesh because he only had a little energy left.
"Don't worry. They can't lay a hand on us here,"
Chapman reassured him with a calm look on his face.
Then he sat cross-legged on the step of the altar, took out a large number of top-grade natural resources, and swallowed them to begin healing himself.
"Chapman, don't try and scare us!
It's just an altar. There's nothing dangerous about it,"
a governing god snapped, rolling his eyes.
Over the years, mysterious legends regarding the road of reincarnation had spread throughout the Sea of Chaos.
These governing gods had heard the old saying too. "No one can stir up trouble on the road of reincarnation."
However, they were the top-notch masters in the Sea of Chaos.
They were convinced that everything was under their control.
They were smart enough not to take risks, but they didn't think that the road of reincarnation actually posed any threat.
After all, nothing terrible had happened yet.
Therefore, they thought that the legends had exaggerated the danger of the road of reincarnation.
"Chapman, I'm taking your life."
When the governing god spoke, he formed a large palm to hit Chapman.
The palm doubled and then tripled in size,
coming at Chapman while he sat there, looking like a tiny ant.
The hand released an overwhelming amount of energy and brilliant law powers.
"Chapman, we need to run now!"
Atticus' face turned pale with fear.
If he wanted to escape, he needed Chapman's help.
"Calm down.
As I said, they can't hurt us here," Chapman replied.
He remained motionless, not even bothering to open his eyes.
When they talked to each other,
the gigantic hand got closer to them.
Atticus was trembling like a leaf, but he still had faith in Chapman.
Out of the blue,
the Taoist priest who had been sitting cross-legged suddenly took action.
