Chapter 1078: Absorbing knowledge

It was the Mark of God that suddenly lit up on my hand and created this barrier around me. But this Mark of God was only just beginning.

The lich looked like it was in pain because of the Mark of God, but it didn't give up. That was because the lich knew that this was its only chance, if it let this chance go, then it wouldn't have another chance to come back to life.

So even if it was being purified by that barrier of white light, it couldn't give up.

The dark energy that was around me started to surge, as if it was becoming stronger. But at the same time, I could see that the purple light that was inside of the lich's eyes were getting weaker.

It seemed that it was using everything that it had to attempt to take me over.

Unfortunately, the lich just wasn't able to crack through the barrier of white light that was set up by the Mark of God.

The more that the dark energy slammed against the barrier of white light, the stronger the barrier seemed to become. It was as if it was being spurred on by the dark energy that slammed into it and was growing stronger because of it.

"No, how could this be? Just what is this power?" The lich said in a voice that was slowly being filled with despair.

It was as if the lich could see its end getting closer and closer.

It seemed that it was only a matter of time before the last bit of its power and consciousness was dissipated by this barrier of white light.

"I'm not willing to accept this! How could this possibly be true? How could a lowly human have this kind of power? Just what are you?" When the last line of defense collapsed for the lich, it really couldn't take it anymore and had a mental breakdown.

Normally, it wouldn't act like this, but it just couldn't take it anymore.

There was a trace of bitterness that filled me when I heard this.

I want to say that I did this on my own, but I really couldn't say that since I knew that this wasn't the truth. If it wasn't for the fact that I had received divine intervention, then I really wouldn't have been able to do anything.

It was all because I had the help of the gods themselves that I was able to stop the lich.

Though it wasn't as if I could really explain this to the lich.

So all I could do was...

With a bitter smile, I said, "I didn't do it alone, it's the power of the gods that are helping me."

"Huh?" The lich looked visibly surprised and confused when it heard this, but that confusion only lasted for a second as it was still being purified by the barrier of white light that was around me.

It knew that it would be dead in a moment if it stalled any longer, so all it could do was keep pushing with the dark energy that it had.

There was no other way for the lich, it could only take over my body or it would be purified. In the end, the lich was purified.

The barrier of white light came from the Mark of God, which meant that it was a power that came from the gods themselves. It was not the kind of power that would be easily defeated even if it was the remnant of a lich that was attacking it.

If liches could defeat gods, then the world order would have changed already.

The lich said one more time in an aggrieved voice, "Just how could this be? Just what are you?"

There was nothing I could say as I watched the lich fade away.

Though the moment that the lich faded away, I realized that there was another problem. After the lich grabbed me with both hands, I was carried up into the air by the lich. While I didn't know just how far up it had brought me, it was a fact that I had been lifted into the air by the lich.

That meant that now that the lich was gone, I would fall down to the ground.

Without knowing how much of a drop it was...

Would I really just die like this after being dropped down like this?

Would I even die since this was just a world inside of my mind?

At the same time, what would happen to me if I were to die in this place?

There were all kinds of thoughts that passed through my mind as I felt myself falling, but that falling sensation soon slowed down. It was as if I was falling slower and slower until I came to

a stop.

I didn't know what it was that stopped me, but I had a good guess.

It was very likely that it was the barrier of white light that was still around me.

Once I landed, the barrier of white light suddenly disappeared from around me and it disappeared in a way that it didn't leave a trace at all. If it wasn't for the fact that I had seen it protecting me from the lich, I would have doubted that the barrier had been there before.

However, after the barrier disappeared, there was something else that appeared.

There was this black ball that fell down in front of me, though it didn't fall all the way down to the ground.

After reaching the same height as me, the black ball suddenly stopped falling down.

It just floated there in front of me.

With the way that it floated there, it was almost as if the black ball was just waiting for me to reach out and take it. But I didn't do that since I didn't know what this thing was.

But the black ball didn't just remain floating there forever.

All of a sudden, the black ball suddenly came forward and entered my forehead before I could

stop it.

Once it entered my forehead, it was as if there was something that was filling my brain.

"Ah!" I shouted out in pain as a sharp sting filled my head.
