Qiao Liqun sighed and said, "You've got me. My God told me to go to the main hub with you. I can't go against the God's orders."
Bai Xiaowen waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Senior Qiao. You can go in and be the vanguard. If the God of Truth blames you, I'll take responsibility for you."
Bai Xiaowen really wanted to send Qiao Liqun away.
Qiao Liqun was a little tempted, but he shook his head in the end. Instead, he said rather heroically, "Fine, I'll stay here with you and meet the heroes from all sides."
Bai Xiaowen didn't say anything.
Although he didn't send Qiao Liqun away, it wouldn't affect Bai Xiaowen's plan.
It was just to let the God of Truth know a little earlier.
The two of them waited quietly in the square outside the main entrance of the Hub Temple.
The advantage of being one step ahead couldn't be wasted. Bai Xiaowen used the branch of immortal arts that he was already proficient in — Talisman Refining — to set up ten immortal formations in the Hub Temple. It was like weaving a giant net, waiting for the experts of the enemy forces to come.
Time passed day by day, and the Chosen arrived one after another.
To be able to find the Core Temple at this point in time, all of them were experts.
They were Level-20 Evolvers and stood at the peak of the Evolvers. In terms of combat power, the Chosen who had abilities bestowed by the God far surpassed ordinary people.
The first to arrive was the Sun God's Chosen. As a shooter, he carried a sniper rifle on his back and had a temperament as ethereal as the wind.
The Sun God's Chosen wasn't stupid. Seeing that there were only two people waiting in the square, and that they were from the enemy camp, he naturally wouldn't advance rashly. Instead, he floated in the universe not far away and quietly waited for the others to arrive.
Qiao Liqun suggested to strike first to gain the upper hand, but Bai Xiaowen rejected it.
Bai Xiaowen saw clearly that the Sun God's Chosen was very cautious and stood not far away. If he showed signs of approaching, the other party would definitely temporarily escape and wait for the right time to come back.
It was as troublesome as chasing away flies. There was no need for that. Besides, Bai Xiaowen didn't want to leave the range of the formation on the Hub Temple.
After a day, two more Chosen arrived.
The first to arrive was the Chosen of the God of Night. His figure was lean and capable. Two blood-colored scimitars were sheathed on his back, and he was filled with fierce killing intent.
Behind him was a man with a black demonic book in his hand. His temperament was as dark and gloomy as the abyss. Bai Xiaowen had seen this person before. He was the second son of Dayan Region's Lord, the Chosen of the Cursed True God, Xia Jinshi.
The current Xia Jinshi was not wearing the disguise she wore when they first met. Instead, she was wearing a different face. However, in Bai Xiaowen's eyes, these disguises did not exist.
It was worth mentioning that among the three new voters, the God of Night and the God of Curses were in the opposing camp of Bai Xiaowen, while the God of Sun was in the neutral camp.
Bai Xiaowen's eyes narrowed when he saw Xia Jinshi, the Chosen One of the Cursed Deity.
"What's the situation?" Xia Jinshi observed the situation and asked curiously.
The Sun God's Apostle said coldly, "As you can see, someone is blocking the main entrance of the hub."
"It's Lu Wang? No, I should call you Bai Xiaowen, "Xia Jinshi said with a smile. "A young man in his early twenties, a rookie who has only been on the path of transcendence for four or five years, dares to be so arrogant?"
The man with the blood-red machete said slowly, "Be careful, he's the successor of the God of Death."
"Judging from his aura, he hasn't taken the final step to become the God of Death." Xia Jinshi had already observed carefully and said with a smile, "It seems that he hasn't been able to collect all the Godhood fragments on the Death Omen Star."
Qiao Liqun's lips moved, but he did not say anything.
It was no wonder that Xia Jinshi and the others made such a guess. After all, obtaining the Godhood and immediately becoming a God was the best choice. They could not imagine that Bai Xiaowen would resist the temptation of becoming a God and continue to participate in this competition as a human.
The Sun God's Apostle with a sniper rifle on his back said, "Since he hasn't become the God of Death, he's just a powerful evolver who has part of the God of Death's inheritance."
"That's right." Xia Jinshi smiled and said, "After several generations of inheritance, the power of the God of Death's Godhood has weakened a lot. He's no longer one of the five strongest Gods. If that's not the case, what qualifications does he have to become the successor of the God of Death? "
"Let's join forces." The man with the blood-red machete said coldly, "Kill the successor of the God of Death. No matter what, he has the highest possibility of obtaining the treasures of the Land of Origin. "
The Sun God's Apostle nodded slightly. He did not make a move at the beginning because he was alone. Now that it was three against two, and both sides were top-notch Apostles, he was certainly not afraid to fight.
If Bai Xiaowen had already become the God of Death, this neutral Apostle would definitely turn around and leave without saying a word.
Even the Apostles of the God of Night and the God of Curses would have to give up on fighting openly and think of ways to obstruct him. This was the difference between a God and an Apostle. Even if the God of Death had been passed down for several generations and the power of the Godhood had weakened a lot, it was still impossible for an Evolver to fight against him head-on.
The conversation between the three of them was not deliberately blocked, so Bai Xiaowen and Qiao Liqun heard it clearly.
"What do we do? These three are much stronger than the ones on the Death Omen Star. I'm not confident in dealing with them, "Qiao Liqun said. He had dominated the Star Alliance and lived for so long without dying mainly because of his space travel ability. Of course, he had the ability to fight head-on, but the older he was, the more he cherished his life. It was Qiao Liqun's principle to avoid unnecessary fights.
In Qiao Liqun's opinion, there was no need to fight this fight now. Even if he won against these three, what about the other Apostles who would continuously rush to the Hub Temple? Could he drive them all away?
Bai Xiaowen said again, "Senior Qiao, you can retreat first."
"Tsk, am I that kind of person? I'll talk some sense into them first. "Qiao Liqun gritted his teeth. He had already secretly used mental interference and completed the preliminary steps.
However, the moment Qiao Liqun took out the Red Book, a black iron curtain descended and swallowed all of Qiao Liqun's mental power tendrils that extended over.
"Senior, you're really good at these kinds of little tricks. Fortunately, we're all from the Blue Planet, so I'm somewhat prepared," Xia Jinshi said with a smile.
Qiao Liqun's attack immediately made the three Apostles make up their minds.
The Sun God's Apostle was the first to make a move. He took off his sniper rifle and half-squatted on the ground, slowly adjusting the gun.
Strands of sunlight burst forth from behind him and gathered inch by inch on a long and narrow bullet.
In the end, this bullet could no longer be looked at directly. It was as dazzling as a miniature sun.
The Sun God's Apostle pressed the bullet into the gun and focused on aiming.
The Night God's Apostle pulled out two blood-red scimitars, and his body suddenly became illusory, like a bloody shadow.
Xia Jinshi flipped open the Black Demonic Book, and black spheres appeared one after another, like small black holes that swallowed all light.
"Attack!"
