"If I say we have not seen it, would you believe me?"
Gray stopped and turned around to look at the Sorcerer Temple Leader.
"I do not believe you."
The Lord of the Sorcerer Temple, who had been smiling a moment ago, now had a cold look in his eyes.
"The curse rule is the foundation of the Sorcerer Temple. No outsider is allowed to see it. So, I am sorry."
"Prison."
The Sorcerer Temple Leader's old voice had a strange rhythm to it. It was as if he was conducting an ancient ritual to communicate with the sky and earth.
A strange change suddenly appeared around Gray and the other four. Around them, a 30-foot-wide prison that looked like stone and metal appeared, trapping them in it.
"Curse rule!"
Gray and the other four looked at the Sorcerer Temple Leader with an ugly expression. Using words alone to trigger an unpredictable power, it was no doubt a skill of the curse rule.
"It looks like you have seen the rule book. Then, all the more I cannot let you go!"
The Sorcerer Temple Leader laughed coldly.
"I am very grateful to you. With the rule book, my chances of breaking through to rule class are at least 30% higher. However, no matter what, I cannot let anyone who has seen the rule book leave alive."
The rule book was too important to a Saint-class faction. It was not only the carrier of knowledge, but it was also the carrier of the experiences of past Saints. So, it could not be seen by outsiders, even if the rule book was sent back by outsiders.
"It has indeed turned out this way."
Blanca and the others felt their hearts sink. They had guessed this before they came, but they still had some hope. They hoped that the Sorcerer Temple Leader would not pursue the matter because they had sent the rule book back.
However, their hopes were dashed. The Sorcerer Temple would not allow them to see the rule book.
"Is this how you thank me?"
Gray looked coldly at the Sorcerer Temple Leader. In front of him, a black shadow tentacle extended.
"It is useless. Even an ordinary sixth level Annihilation class giant would not be able to break it. You should just accept your fate."
The Sorcerer Temple Leader laughed mockingly. He was very confident in the "prison" derived from the curse rule.
However, just as he finished speaking, the shadow tentacles wrapped around Sophia and the other three. Then, Gray, Sophia, and the other three disappeared.
"Teleportation?
He actually has the ability to teleport? "
His expression suddenly turned ugly. He had not expected that the other party would have the ability to teleport. After all, the other party's age clearly did not make him look like a big shot, and it was very rare to meet a Son of Saint. However, from the looks of it now, it was obvious that he had met a Son of Saint.
"Pass down the order. Arrest these five people in the name of the Sorcerer Saint Palace, regardless of whether they are dead or alive!"
With a gloomy expression and a thought flashing through his mind, he made a decision and ordered.
"Temple Master, the other party's identity is not ordinary. If we place a bounty on him, it is very likely that we will become enemies with the Spacetime Temple."
The woman asked worriedly.
"This is the Holy Sorcerer Territory, not the Spacetime Territory. Furthermore, the Book of Laws cannot be obtained by outsiders, not even if they see it."
The head of the Sorcerer Temple said with an unshakable will.
"Yes."
The woman replied and quickly left.
Tens of thousands of miles away from the Sorcerer Saint Hall, Gray and the other four appeared.
"I thought I was going to die!"
George's forehead was covered with cold sweat.
The pressure brought by a powerful figure was unimaginable. Furthermore, in a place like the Sorcerer Saint Hall, he thought that he was going to die. Fortunately, Gray used his teleportation ability to bring them out.
"I'm afraid that the Sorcerer Saint Hall will not let this matter rest."
Blanca wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and said with a worried expression on her beautiful face.
"Fortunately, the Book of Laws has been handed over to the head of the Sorcerer Saint Hall and the curse has been lifted."
Sophia said with a sigh. With the backing of the Spacetime Temple, she was not too worried about the threat of the Sorcerer Saint Hall. As long as they returned to the Spacetime Temple, the Sorcerer Saint Hall would not be able to do anything to her and Gray.
The five of them relaxed and subconsciously looked at the snake tattoo on their left wrists. The next moment, their faces turned ugly.
On their left wrists, the blood-colored snake tattoo was like a ferocious blood-colored snake. It was still wrapped around their wrists and did not lift the curse even though they had returned the Book of Laws to the current head of the Sorcerer Saint Hall.
"How can this be …?"
George's face was pale. They had taken such a huge risk to return the Book of Laws to the Sorcerer Saint Hall, but the curse had still not been lifted.
"We've been deceived. The person who left the curse had no intention of letting us, who had read the Book of Laws, live. Even if we returned the Book of Laws to the Sorcerer Saint Hall, it would not work."
Gray's face was ashen. They had followed the instructions in the letter and returned the Book of Laws to the current head of the Sorcerer Saint Hall. However, the curse had not been lifted. The only explanation was that the person who left the curse had no intention of lifting the curse.
"How ruthless. Even on the brink of death, they still schemed like this."
Landry's face turned ugly. The Saint from the Sorcerer Saint Hall was clearly a ruthless person. He knew that he was about to die and could not personally bring the Book of Laws back to the Sorcerer Saint Hall, so he used the curse to force the person who had obtained the Book of Laws to return it to the Sorcerer Saint Hall.
Furthermore, he did not want the contents of the Book of Laws to be leaked and had no intention of lifting the curse. Even if the five of them returned the Book of Laws, it would not work.
"What do we do now?"
Blanca's face turned ugly. No one wanted to die, let alone people like them who were talented and had a bright future. They were destined to become giants.
"The Sorcerer Saint Hall has controlled the Curse Law for so many years. They must know how to lift the curse."
Gray lowered his head and fell into deep thought. After a while, he looked up with a sharp gaze.
"But the Sorcerer Saint Hall wants to kill us. How can they lift the curse for us?"
Blanca smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Then we'll beat them until they hand over the method to lift the curse."
In this life and death crisis, Gray's mind was unexpectedly calm and clear.
"Even if the Saint from the Sorcerer Saint Hall was about to die, he still wanted to find a way to return the Book of Laws. The Book of Laws might not be as simple as just recording the Rule Blood Technique. Without the Book of Laws, the Sorcerer Saint Hall might not have a Rule powerhouse."
"That's indeed possible. I've heard that the Book of Laws contains the comprehension of a Rule powerhouse. It's very helpful for breaking through to the Rule Realm. With the Rule powerhouse killed and the Book of Laws missing, the Sorcerer Saint Hall might not have a Rule powerhouse."
Sophia nodded, confirming Gray's guess.
"Even if the Sorcerer Saint Hall doesn't have a Rule powerhouse, they're still a Saint-level organization. They have many giants. How can we force them to hand over the method to lift the curse?"
Blanca said without much hope.
"As long as there's no Rule powerhouse, we can try."
Gray's eyes were filled with confidence. He was not blind. He really had a certain level of confidence.
What he really feared about the Sorcerer Saint Hall was the Rule Realm powerhouse. The strength of a Rule Realm powerhouse was not something he could fight against now, even if he used all his means.
As long as there were no Law-level powerhouses, it would be easy to deal with. He had the time law ability and space law ability. Even a powerhouse would not be able to do anything to him. In addition, now that he had obtained the corpse of a Law-level blood beast, a Saint-level force without a Law-level powerhouse was not without a fighting chance.
Without further explanation, Gray let the four of them enter the realm to hide. His eyes flashed with determination as he teleported toward the Sorcerer Saint Hall.
Sou!
When he reappeared, he was already in the Shaman Saint Hall. Looking at the hall where the Lord of the Shaman Saint Hall was, a cold smile appeared on his lips. A beam of purple light swept towards the hall like a beam of apocalyptic light.
Katcha!
The purple light covered the palace. The surface of the palace flashed with many runes. They were strengthening patterns. With the existence of these strengthening patterns, even an Annihilation class would not be able to damage the palace.
It was a shame that the Time Law power was not an ordinary Annihilation class power. The way it was used was not purely to destroy. It used time to wear it down.
In an instant, the entire palace had experienced tens of thousands of years. The many strengthening patterns on the surface collapsed. Without the strengthening patterns, the palace was unable to withstand a single blow under the Time Law power.
Boom!
The palace was like a pile of sand that would break with a single touch. It collapsed. With a loud noise, dust filled the sky. It was like a yellow sandstorm. It spread toward the other palaces.
"Who is it?"
From the ruins of the palace, a few dozen people rushed out. They were all covered in dust.
In other places, there were many powerful shadows coming. As the Sorcerer Saint Hall was an important place, there were many elites there. Only Gray, who had the teleportation power, was able to avoid the elites and arrive there.
Gray's attack shocked all the elites in the palace. Not only that, but people from the other mountains were also flying over.
The people who were flying over had powerful presences. It was enough to make the heads of the most powerful families go numb. Even if they did not have any rule class elites, they were still a Saint-class faction. It was not something the most powerful families could compete with.
"It is you. How dare you come back?"
Among the dozens of people who rushed out from the ruins, there was an extremely skinny old man. He was the Temple Master of the Sorcerer Temple. He stared coldly at Gray, and the terrifying killing intent on his body blew away the dust in the air.
He had never thought that Fang Xingjian, who had already escaped, would be so bold as to turn back and destroy the main palace of the Sorcerer Saint Hall.
The Sorcerer Saint Hall had been established for over a hundred thousand years. Although it had encountered many dangers and had even fought against Saint-class factions, it had never suffered such a great loss. It had actually been attacked and even the main palace, which was very important to the Sorcerer Saint Hall, had been destroyed.
"Why wouldn't I dare? Do you think the Sorcerer Saint Hall is still the Sorcerer Saint Hall of the past?
Without a rule class elite, your Sorcerer Saint Hall is at most slightly stronger than the most powerful families. "
Gray looked at the Sorcerer Saint Hall leader fearlessly and sneered.
