Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master - Chapter 788

Chapter 788

( Roomie's POV)

Roomie had initially planned on converting the temple of the beast king into a field of assassination for Rudra as he planned to set up his traps all over for the leader of the elites.

When a peak tier 3 individual enters the temple of the beast king , they trigger the tier 4 promotion quest known as the trial of fire and are teleported into a parallel space where they appear for the trial.

However over the past centuries there were no news about any tier 5 individual visiting the temple , as there was no known benefit for a tier 5 individual to enter the temple , there were no treasures to be looted and there was also no motivation for them to go after already reaching tier 5 .

Hence when roomie entered the temple he was stunned to see the scenario infront of his eyes.

In the centre of the temple was an altar that had chains as thick as a pillar and scorch marks could be seen on the ground below as if it was heated repeatedly using fires over and over again for centuries .

The law of fire was so strong in the environment that roomie could only will about creating fire in his palms and fire would appear eventhough he was not a mage who had learnt to use the fire spell.

Usually those who took the risk to traverse the beast territory and enter the temple would either not come out to tell the tale , or would tell the tale of the trial of fire which was an alternate dimension not connected to the temple , while nobody told the tale of the temple itself because nobody had witnessed it , as roomie was sure that if anyone had seen this scene before then this temple would not be standing here after all these years as Lucifer himself would have laid a claim on it.

Infront of his eyes laid a place that had ancient paintings across the pillars where the chains emerged from that told the tale of how the ancient phoenix was captured here.

It was a popular folklore that the demonkind used to say about the seperation of the middle realm the heaven and hell , as before the age of the two legged species , there was the age of the beast kings who roamed the worlds as the dragon race , the phoenix race , the ninetailed fox and the hermit turtle race were the four divine races on the planet.

The dragons ruled the skies , the ninetailed beasts ruled the mountains and the hermit turtle ruled the ocean, however the phoenix chose to rule the underworld as the hot boiling magma and the heat inside was it's preffered habitat.

When the primordial god's were born into the world , the beasts and the gods lived in harmony for years before the angels were born into the world.

Hades who was the new ruler of the underworld respected the privacy of the phoenix and hailed it as a sacred beast amongst the demonkind.

The phoenix was worshipped and it's spotting was considered auspicious, however it all changed when Lucifer took over.

The angels were hungry for divinity , to get an opportunity to raise themselves beyond the tier 6 threshold and become true god's by entering the tier 7 realm , however breaking past the barrier was not easy.

It was during this time that Lucifer killed a peace loving hermit turtle and sucked off its divinity to strengthen himself.

When the other angels found out about Lucifer's heinous crimes against the hermit turtle race who were driven near extinction by Lucifers mad hunting , a great war started between the angels and the devil and finally after suffering defeat at the hands of Archangel Micheal Lucifer was banished from the middle earth .

In hell he tricked Hades into a millenium long sleep and usurped the throne while his presence forced the divine phoenix to cower and hide lest Lucifer came for its divinity.

Hence the ' Beastmen ' the original demons who could talk and tame wild beasts created the beastkings temple for the phoenix and helped it hide from the eyes of Lucifer by creating many illusionary formations around the temple as well as making different portals for different tiers of people entering the temple.

To make it impossible for Lucifer to find this place , the Beastmen made it so that nobody above the tier 5 realm could ever enter the temple while everyone under tier 3 would be instantly killed by the fire world created by the flames of the phoenix.

While those who passed the trial of fire at the peak of tier 3 were promoted to tier 4 , even those at tier 4 entering the temple were taken to the same trial again and again , and the only break from this cycle was to enter at tier 5.

The chains that roomie saw were the chains that the phoenix voluntarily entered to release it's pent up power from time to time as the chains were specially forged in a way that it used the discharged power from the phoenix's body to power the formations of the temple as well as to fuel the trial of fire.

The Beastmen did a brilliant job in hiding the phoenix for nearly 1600 years , however nobody could have thought that even after all these years the immortal phoenix was still alive and resting within the temple , hiding from Lucifer.

Hence when Roomie detected the divine phoenix sleeping soundly in the temple , he could not beleive his own senses as he understood well that this was a once in a lifetime opportunity.

If he could enslave the phoenix….. He could finally escape being Lucifer's pet and break away from this cursed place called hell.
