“So, you meant to come to the Oracle Star,” the Second Elder suddenly said. Those who came here were those who were under the control of the Sacred Religion, while the rest had been forced to come. Xie Yuxin was not originally on the list, especially since his results in Elite Academy X were not outstanding. Furthermore, he was one of the earliest to arrive at the Oracle Star and had been lurking since.

“This disobedient brain can always perceive some troublesome and interesting things, and I am also interested in the Oracle,” Xie Yuxin said with a smile and pointing to his head

“Xie Yuxin, you are too arrogant! With your capabilities, how dare you talk about the Oracle!” Tan Yuyang finally could not contain himself.

“Yang, don’t let him provoke you. Xie Yuxin is a clever person. Since he is so honest, we should be honest too. Sit down.” said the Second Elder with a smile.

Xie Yuxin was not upset. “I think Elder should understand what I mean.”

The Second Elder kept his smile at all times. He definitely understood. Xie Yuxin meant that he wanted to experience the journey but not to win the Oracle. Of course, this did not mean that he had the necessary capabilities, but rather a condition. The Oracle was something that was detached from conventional fate. In Xie Yuxin’s world, or rather in the Seer’s world, everything was “flowing” according to the law. Although the path may change as a result of events, it would still ultimately follow a constant law. However, this Oracle was different. Just like boat in the river. Although it could not break away from the river, it was still different from all others. This was an experience that was very exquisite.

“The Sacred Religion is holding a grand ceremony for the appearance of the Oracle. The process is very interesting. But as you know, to experience this process, you need to have enough power, or rather, to survive till the very end,” said the Second Elder.

“I’m very willing to work with you,” said Xie Yuxin.

Tan Yuyang was holding it in, but he understood what was said. Xie Yuxin was the sort of madman who did not care about fame or fortune. He was only interested in understanding what he was interested in and would not be restrained by anything or anyone. This was a neuropathy without any desires. Thus, there were no conflicts with his desires.

“Very good. Yuyang, you must work well together.”

The Second Elder nodded a little, turned around, and a space gateway opened behind him. A ripple stirred, and the gateway disappeared as he stepped through and disappeared quickly.

Xie Yuxin was smiling. He knew that the other party did not mean to brag. A Heaven level master. This was the connotation of the Sacred Religion. This matter was getting more and more interesting. Wang Zhang should get here soon, or he would miss a good show.

The Sacred Religion had progressed to this stage. Loyalty was not important to them; suitability was what they needed.

Tan Yuyang was checking Xie Yuxin out. Suddenly, he smiled too. “Brother Xie, we have to work well together during this period of time. The Battle of the Oracle is about to begin. The Oracle Star will be fully open. The Sacred Religion will not interfere with anyone or any power. Everyone will have an opportunity. The ultimate winner will possess everything. Death will be the only thing for the loser.”

Having come this far, the Sacred Religion was no longer concerned about the consequences. No one should think about being lucky. They had even abducted the princess of Aslan. There was nothing they feared.

“Brother Tan, do you believe it?”

“Hehe, although the Oracle belongs to the Elders, the Sacred Religion still requires an heir, or at least successors for the Elders. This is sufficient. Take it one step at a time; otherwise, there is bound to be harm,” said Tan Yuyang.

“Like you?” Xie Yuxin suddenly laughed. Tan Yuyang’s face turned dark in an instant.

For Xie Yuxin, meeting the Second Elder was sufficient. The so-called candidates of the Holy Son, like Tan Yuyang, were just pawns with no freedom. What he had said was the best case scenario. But with just a little error, everything would be beyond redemption.

These Elders had restrained themselves for so long. This was the real madness now. action

Holy City, the lowest level.

This was still the area where the people with the trackers were moving round.

There were constantly people who removed their trackers and left and returned with resources. The existence of the upper level and lower level of the Oracle Star was no longer a secret.

However, there was still quite a large number of people who were content with the current situation. They had sufficient time on their trackers for their usage, so there was no need for them to take risks. Besides, the missions for taking off the trackers were too dangerous. The survival rate was just forty-two percent, not even close to half.

As more of the ambitious people began removing the trackers, harmony slowly became the mainstream atmosphere. The arguments that were seen frequently in the past had become lesser, replaced with friendlier discussions and consultations.

There were also people who were not wearing the trackers engaging in transactions here. For the lower levels of the Oracle, the time on the trackers could be used in the Sacred Temple to trade for different items. The Sacred Temple would also release special missions to travel to the lower levels for collection of time for the trackers.

Right now, they were hoping that everyone would contribute to the Oracle.

However, it was difficult for the people who received the mission to collect time for their trackers. Things at the low levels were calmer. The people who were willing to trade time for physical items were getting fewer by the day. Quite a number of people had already accumulated about half a year in their trackers. They might as well not do anything and laze around in the Holy City.

Jay York, who used to follow Meng Tian and the rest, was standing in the centre of the crowd. As an Earth-rank warrior, he had no lack of followers surrounding him.

A tracker was still around his wrist.

The mission of removing the tracker from his wrist had been confirmed as a fact. However, from what he could uncover, life was actually harder after removing the tracker and entering the lower level of the Oracle. At the very least, here at the lowest level, as an Earth-rank warrior, he could still reign as king. But was there a difference between a single Earth-rank warrior and a stray dog at the lower level? A group of Earth-rank warriors would still be a litter of dogs. Only those who had the support of the Sacred Religion could be called a wolf pack.

It would be better to lord over others here and lead a comfortable life. As for time, would this even be a problem for an Earth-rank warrior? When it was gone, he would just have to grab it from others.

Besides, when he did it last time, he had gained more than a year’s worth of time.

Even if it started depleting by twofold, he could still laze around for another two or three months.

After two to three months, things would change again. He would find a way to survive, no matter what. He was, after all, an Earth-rank warrior.

Every time Jay York thought about this, he could not help but recall the icy yet beautiful face of Meng Tian and that obviously cold yet hot figure.

“Lin Ling, I have something to discuss with you privately.”

Jay York waved his hand and a beautiful young lady stood out. Although there was a smile on her face, it contained a trace of rage in the depth as well. She knew what was going to happen next. She used to be his teammate, but now...

Jay York pulled her and entered the stone room on the side. Crude conditions increased the stimulation of one’s wild nature.

He pushed her hard against the wall, roughly biting into her fair neck and firm breasts. At the moment, her repressed anger and unwillingness made her look somewhat similar to Meng Tian’s iciness. This excited Jay York even more. He pulled her even harder, turning her with her back facing him, and brutally tearing her clothes into pieces...

Suddenly, the tracker lit up.

A red light.

This was the first time he had seen this.

In an instant, all of Jay York’s desires were gone!

Outside, in the streets.

Everyone was staring at the sky...

A huge camouflage canopy opened up. Countless high-rise buildings finally appeared in front of their eyes. The surroundings were starting to change drastically.

There were still unclear rumours here regarding the selection of the Oracle Son. However, many people here chose to ignore it.

They were in a daze. Suddenly, the red light on everyone’s trackers lit up.

Raising their heads again, they realised that the people on the streets with no trackers had all disappeared without a trace.

But what did the red light mean? Were the trackers about to be removed? Were they forcing everyone to move to the lower level of the Oracle?

Outside Jay York’s room, his followers were all in a daze. Suddenly, a terrifying scream was heard and a silhouette flashed by. Just then, Jay York rushed out of his room. A hand that was wearing a tracker had been severed from someone’s shoulder.

Jay York took one cold look at the batch of idiots who were looking dazed, turned, and fled. After only about a dozen steps, a sudden roar was heard in the room that he was in earlier. The tracker finally realized that there was no sign of life coming out of the severed arm, and exploded automatically.

The sound of the explosion was like a signal.

Boom, boom, boom...

The sounds of explosions could be heard throughout the entire Holy City. Amidst the red lights, all the trackers exploded regardless of the time remaining.

Useless trash was no longer needed in the Oracle Star. There would be an end to avoidance. The war of the Oracle had begun.
