A few elderly men were chit–chatting.
Meanwhile, James and the others waited outside the gazebo. However, the elderly men seemed to not have noticed them.
James furrowed his eyebrows and said, “What’s going on? It seems that they can’t see us…”
However, at that moment, an elderly man wearing a golden robe turned suddenly and glanced at him, saying smilingly, “We have company…”
The others turned as well and looked at James and the others.
Marcello said, “My name is Marcello Mariano. It’s an honor to meet you…”
“Haha…” One of the elderly men stroked his chin and smiled at James and the others, saying, “I never expected the Five–Elements Painting we left behind would one day appear to see the light of day again. It even brought us a few youngsters.”
At that moment, Sophie’s voice came, “James, this is a scenery from the Primeval Age. The people in front of you should be the Five Ancestral Gods. They do not exist in this era, but they already knew what would happen despite being in the Primeval Age.”
“Are you for real?” James froze.
“Go take a closer look if you don’t believe me.”
Hearing this, James walked over to the elderly men and reached out his hand to touch one of them.
As soon as they made contact, the elderly man disappeared. When favonovel.com withdrew his hand, the elderly man reappeared.
The elderly man said smilingly, “Haha… It appears that this youngster has seen through us…”
Hearing this, James took a deep breath.
He marveled at the Five Ancestral Gods of the Primeval Age. Despite being separated by so many eras, they were able to foresee what would happen in the current era.
“Not bad, all six of you possess enormous potential. However, not anyone can obtain Elemental Inversion. You have to endure extremely heavy Karma…”
Hearing this, James smiled faintly and said, “That’s no big deal. I have obtained all 108 Infinity Steles. The person who gave me the Infinity Steles said the exact same thing. In the end, the Infinity Steles chose me. That’s why I can endure Karma. So give Elemental Inversion to me.”
“Oh? Are the Infinity Steles of Jack Wawrzyniec in your possession?”
Hearing this, the other elderly men froze. Meanwhile, the others behind James panicked.
Nyasja hurriedly said, “He’s not the only one who can endure Karma.”
Willibald chimed in, “Indeed, you have to choose wisely.”
Another elderly man said, “We’re not the ones making the decision. Everything is preordained by fate. I’ll leave some Laws of Inscription behind. Although they can’t represent the Heavenly Path, they are a simplified version of the Heavenly Path. Its decision is final.”
Then, they disappeared.
Meanwhile, the inscriptions on the chessboard came to life and immediately appeared in the sky. These inscriptions were constantly changing, like the countless stars in the universe.
Immediately afterward, the inscriptions fell like dots of light onto them.
“Argh!” Marcello cried out in pain.
She was the first to be disqualified.
As favonovel.com screamed, favonovel.com left the Five–Elements Painting and appeared outside. She could see that the painting was still in the air and that the Five Ancestral Gods had disappeared without a trace.
Only James, Lucifer, Nyasia, Jace, and Willibald remained in the painting.
Marcello scratched favonovel.com nose and smiled bitterly, saying, “I never thought I’d be the first one to be disqualified!”
Since favonovel.com could no longer obtain Elemental Inversion, favonovel.com did not dwell on the matter. Outside, favonovel.com was curious to see who would be the one to obtain the well–renowned and ground–breaking Elemental Inversion.
