Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

Chapter 619 Chapter592-Journey to the Ancient Battlefield

?Having completed the first stage of the quest without hesitation, John proceeded to the second stage.

He teleported to the Lava Valley in Sunset Mountain, where he effortlessly defeated a few solitary fire elementals, collecting their essence into the clay pot.

With the pot filled with enough fire elements, John returned to Southern Port.

However, he couldn't find the woman in white in the same spot where he had left her.

Puzzled, John noticed that she had moved closer to the shoreline; previously, she had been a bit inland from the coast.

"Why are you here? I almost couldn't find you," John approached the woman and handed her the pot filled with fire elements.

The woman didn't respond to John's question.

Instead, she quickly took the pot and peered intently into it.

"Do you see? The flames are revealing scenes of battle," she said, handing the pot back to John.

John looked into the pot, expecting to see the promised visions of battle.

However, all he saw were the flickering flames of the fire elements, with no scenes of combat unfolding before him.

John, acknowledging the woman's response, took the empty clay pot once more and teleported back to Sunset Mountain.

Guided by the information Adam had provided, he located the gathering place of wind elements.

Gathering wind elements proved to be more challenging than the previous elements due to their potent and elusive nature.

Even for someone of John's high level, capturing these wind elements required a strategic approach to first ensnare them.

Despite the inherent difficulties, John's determination and skill enabled him to collect enough wind elements after some time.

The task demanded patience and precision, as the wind elements' powerful and free nature made them formidable entities to capture and contain.

With the wind elements secured, John prepared to return to the woman in white, hopeful that this final element would unlock the full story of the forgotten battlefield.

The quest was drawing him deeper into the lore of the land, revealing layers of history and conflict that were previously obscured, and John was eager to uncover the truths that lay hidden within these elemental puzzles.

After gathering a sufficient amount of wind elements, John made his way back to Southern Port.

This time, the lady in white positioned herself directly in the shallow waters, her back now facing the sea.

"I've collected enough wind elements. What other elements do you need me to gather?"

John inquired, handing over the clay pot filled with wind elements to the lady in white.

Upon seeing the clay pot brimming with wind elements, a look of immense joy spread across the face of the lady in white.

Without further ado, she proceeded to erase all the wind elements from the pot.

"You are the first adventurer to have collected enough wind elements. You have now completed the first three quests, leaving only the final and most challenging quest ahead. Upon completing this quest, you will gain access to the Forgotten Battlefield. Of course, adventurers like yourself might refer to it as the Ancient Battlefield," the lady in white revealed, finally shedding light on the crucial information about the quest.

The preceding quests were merely a prelude to this ultimate challenge.

The final quest in this series entails journeying to the Ancient Battlefield, a place undoubtedly filled with significant plot details.

Naturally, John was overjoyed at this revelation and promptly sought further information from the lady in white.

"What exactly is the final quest? I assume you'd want me to collect some other elements as well, like lightning or earth elements," John speculated.

The lady in white shook her head, "The final quest isn't about collecting elements. It involves procuring a Mystery gemstone for me."

This revelation made John more cautious than before.

He was acutely aware of the potential dangers associated with the power of Mystery.

The mere mention of Mystery power by the lady suggested that the events at the Ancient Battlefield might be linked to the Mystery faction.

Moreover, following the demise of the Sage of the Seas, John's perception of the Mystery gemstones had significantly shifted.

While he had once hoped to harness the power of these gemstones, he now wished to avoid any association with them.

The change in John's expression did not go unnoticed by the lady in white.

The lady in white directly addressed John, "What's the matter? Are you considering giving up halfway? You've already completed the first three quests and even found a sufficient amount of wind elements. It shouldn't be a problem for you to find a Mystery gemstone, should it? Without the Mystery gemstone, I won't be able to open the portal to the Ancient Battlefield."

John didn't hesitate for too long.

After carefully considering his options, he felt there was no other alternative.

He pulled out a Mystery gemstone from his backpack.

"I don't need to go anywhere else to find a Mystery gemstone because I already possess some. I suppose I have now completed all the quests, haven't I? Shouldn't you be opening the portal to the Ancient Battlefield now?"

John handed the Mystery gemstone to the lady in white.

Upon receiving the gemstone, her demeanor changed entirely from what it was before.

Her clothes swiftly shifted to black, and her eyes began to shimmer with the purple glow characteristic of Mystery.

At that moment, John was prepared for battle, suspecting that this could very well be a trap.

Yet, he reasoned that even if it were a trap, his previous efforts were not in vain.

After all, through this quest, John discovered that the power of Mystery hadn't been completely eradicated from Southern Port.

Given these circumstances, it was only natural for John to proceed with increased caution.

John readied himself for combat but refrained from launching an attack prematurely.

He was still uncertain whether the transformation of the lady in white was due to the imminent opening of the portal to the Ancient Battlefield or if she had turned hostile towards him.

The lady in white retrieved the fire, water, and wind elements John had previously provided.

The power of these three elements was unleashed simultaneously.

At that moment, she also harnessed the power of the Mystery gemstone.

The formidable mix of elemental and Mystery powers merged to create a portal.

Beyond this portal lay the Ancient Battlefield, a place steeped in the annals of time.

The condition of the lady in white had deteriorated significantly.

John could tell she was on the brink of complete dissolution.

However, there was still one last quest she had yet to issue.

"Your next quest is to venture into the Ancient Battlefield and find a legendary warrior named Aike. If you can rescue him, you will be granted the Sacred Relic he possesses."

After imparting these words, the lady in white dissipated into a mist and vanished.

John, observing the portal opened by the lady in white, didn't immediately step into the Ancient Battlefield.

He felt it prudent to remain cautious.

John recounted the situation he had encountered and relayed all this information to Adam and Blue Sea.

He hoped that with this knowledge, they could come to his aid should he find himself in trouble.

Having made these preparations, John entered the portal without hesitation and found himself on the Ancient Battlefield.

As he traversed the portal, he felt the overwhelming presence of Mystery power.

It seemed as though the entire portal was constructed from the essence of Mystery.

He also sensed the Mystery power attempting to erode his being.

Just as the Mystery power was about to completely overwhelm him, the power of the elements stabilized his condition.

The power of fire prevented the erosion by Mystery, the water element restored him to his optimal state, and the wind element kept his mind clear, allowing him to remain vigilant to the changes in his surroundings as he passed through the portal.

John now understood why the completion of the preceding three quests was essential for safe passage to the Ancient Battlefield.

The power of these three elements was crucial for safely navigating the portal.
