Chapter 1265: The Mark of Sinners

While avatar number two was still in a daze, a pair of large hands grabbed him and whisked him away from the chaotic prison.

Led by the Grand Leader, the group of gods and demons went into hiding and arrived at a secret realm on the outskirts of the Primordial God Demon Empire.

“This place is no longer suitable for our growth. Come, I’ll take you to a new place where we can thrive,” the Grand Leader declared with determination.

“Our current strength is too weak to confront the Primordial God Demon Empire directly,” he added firmly.

“Grand Leader, we’re already being watched by the Primordial God Demon Empire. If we keep causing trouble there, they’ll send chaotic gods or demons (chaotic saint-level) after us,” one of the gods or demons who had been with the Grand Leader for years spoke up.

“Right now, the Primordial God Demon Empire is dealing with internal and external chaos. If we wait a little longer, they’ll fall into disarray on their own. By then, those chaotic gods or demons won’t have the time to bother with us.”

“That’s when we’ll truly have our chance to grow,” the Grand Leader said, clenching his fist with excitement.

“Grand Leader, are we really going to be enemies with the Primordial God Demon Empire?” avatar number two couldn’t help but ask.

Immediately, all the gods and demons around turned to look at avatar number two with puzzled expressions.

“You’ve only just joined our family, so you probably don’t know much about our Tianze.”

“We’ve always been enemies of the Primordial God Demon Empire, aiming to overthrow it and bring the chaotic truth back to this land.”

The Grand Leader’s gaze grew distant as he looked toward the heart of the Primordial God Demon Empire, the land of gods and demons.

“In the past, gods and demons could have become chaotic gods or demons, understanding the true essence of chaos.”

“But now, the chaotic truth is controlled by the Primordial God Demon Empire, and we common gods or demons can only serve them, hoping for a chance to glimpse the chaotic truth.”

“Countless gods or demons have given their lives for this chance, only to be destroyed by the opposing god or demon empire and returned to chaos.”

“I was once a general in the god or demon empire, earning countless merits for the Primordial God Demon Empire.”

“I should have had a chance to receive the chaotic truth.”

“But just when I thought my time had come, that opportunity was stolen by a descendant of a chaotic god or demon.”

“In that moment, hundreds of billions of years of effort vanished into nothing,” the Grand Leader said, his voice heavy with emotion.

The surrounding gods and demons listened intently, their faces reflecting deep understanding.

Watching this, avatar number two felt a strange sense of familiarity, though he couldn’t quite place where it came from.

“That was my life’s work, taken away by a single chaotic god or demon.”

“I couldn’t accept it. So, I gathered a group of like-minded brothers and set out on this path.”

“Trust me, everyone. Even though I don’t have the fighting strength of a chaotic god or demon, I can lead us to survive in the chaotic outskirts of the Primordial God Demon Empire,” the Grand Leader assured them.

“Soon, the Primordial God Demon Empire will descend into chaos.”

“That chaos will be our chance to grow. We’ll seize enough chaotic truth from the land of gods and demons to strengthen our power,” the Grand Leader declared.

“Grand Leader, what exactly is the chaotic truth?” avatar number two asked, unable to contain his curiosity.

“The chaotic truth is the key for gods and demons to ascend to chaotic gods or demons.”

“With enough chaotic truth, you could even capture a chaotic giant beast and turn it into a chaotic saint-level creature,” the Grand Leader explained.

A large hand suddenly clapped down on avatar number two’s shoulder.

“Number Two, remember this: as long as you stay with us, one day I’ll make you a Primal Divine Craftsman and a Primal Formation Master,” the Grand Leader proclaimed with unwavering confidence.

At that moment, a surge of chaotic spatial power came from afar.

“Brothers, follow me!”

A spatial gate appeared not far from the group of gods and demons.

“Follow me, I’ll take you to see the anti-Primordial God Demon Empire alliance first.”

The Grand Leader said, leading the gods and demons inside, with avatar number two following closely behind.

“I originally planned to go to the God Demon Empire to learn artifact crafting and the formations discipline.”

“Who would’ve thought I’d end up joining the rebellion before even stepping foot in the God Demon Empire,” avatar number two muttered to himself.

It’s worth noting that in any God Demon Empire, the upper echelons are at least chaotic saint-level beings.

Now, with only a handful of powerful gods or demons, this small group dreaming of overthrowing the Primordial God Demon Empire seemed like a pipe dream.

Through the teleportation portal, the gods and demons arrived in the land of gods and demons.

This land was filled with forces determined to overthrow the Primordial God Demon Empire.

“Army, you’re finally here! I thought you’d forgotten about me,” an excited Great God or Demon rushed over to the Grand Leader.

“Just escaped from the chaotic prison. Let’s find a place for the brothers to recover quickly,” the Grand Leader replied immediately.

“Of course, Grand Leader, please follow me. I’ve set aside a special area of the Tianmo Pool just for you and your brothers,” the Great God or Demon said.

“You still know me well,” the Great God or Demon said with a smile.

In the massive Tianmo Pool, the gods and demons relaxed as if taking a bath.

All of them wore expressions of comfort—except for avatar number two.

At that moment, avatar number two felt a bit tormented; the special liquid in the Tianmo Pool was far too intense.

“Number Two, you’re a wild god or demon with a knack for artifact crafting and formations.”

“I’ll find you a master here soon, and you’d better learn diligently from him.”

“In the future, our brothers’ Spiritual Treasures will be in your hands,” the Grand Leader said, lounging comfortably in the Tianmo Pool.

“Thank you, Grand Leader,” avatar number two replied.

Right now, his only thought was to get out of this mess as soon as possible and sneak into the Primordial God Demon Empire to learn something useful.

As for joining the rebellion within the God Demon Empire, avatar number two decided it was best to stay out of it.

Just then, a powerful aura descended upon the land.

“That must be my Big Brother returning! I’ll introduce you all to him later,” the Grand Leader said excitedly, sensing the aura.

After their bath, the Grand Leader led the gods and demons into a palace.

“Stay here for now. Once you’ve fully recovered, we’ll discuss our plans,” the Grand Leader said before leaving.

Avatar number two glanced around and noticed only weak little gods or demons. With that, he began to entertain other ideas.

At that moment, avatar number two felt a gaze fixed on the back of his neck.

“I didn’t expect the mark of sinners from the Primordial God Demon Empire to look like this on a wild god or demon,” a god or demon remarked curiously.

“Mark of sinners?” Avatar Number Two asked, puzzled.

“Any god or demon caught and sent to prison gets the mark of sinners, and it can never be removed,” explained a nearby little god or demon.
