Creating such an effect wasn’t difficult. It felt like the world was ending and death was near.
A middle-aged woman was the first to jump out. She swore the oath at the quickest possible speed, following all of Alex’s requests. She shouted as she finished, “Quick, dude! You’re now my dearest brother. Send me away, please!”
Alex could feel clearly that the divine power in his mind palace had changed.
The woman’s oath had actually created a different kind of light in his divine power, one that looked like fine golden strings. It was as if they were somehow connected.
“That shouldn’t be a bad thing!” Alex laughed to himself and immediately pulled the woman over.
“Great, now I’ll open up a hole for you, this is the best I can do!”
“Go now! Once you’re resurrected, make good use of your life!”
Alex acted like he was trying hard, spitting out a mouthful of blood while opening a swirling passage.
The woman said, “You take care too, brother! If things don’t go well, leave immediately.”
Alex nodded, “Alright, thanks, girl!”
After that, the woman entered the passage and vanished in a blink of an eye. The crowd looked at one another.
With a sigh, Maha said, “Alex, why torture yourself? Even opening the passage for a second will use up your Buddhist attributes. They are moving so slowly too. Even if you use up all your powers, you will save only a few hundred…”
He turned to Maha, “Master, I can’t take it anymore…”
Maha said, “See, I told you so. But you still made it till now. Fine, let me guide you instead.”
Whoosh!
Maha sent out a light that engulfed Alex. In the next second, Alex entered the real Pool of Afterlife. The moment he landed in the water, he could still hear the remaining trialists crying in regret.
However, it seemed like Maha didn’t plan on sending them away now. Leaving a few trialists there made it more convincing.
