Chapter 1166 The Goddess Bastet Returns

The Goddess Bastet's mortal body could be seen being purified by the energy that she is receiving. Her whole body could be seen basking in white flames as it turns into pure energy. When the Goddess Bastet finally turned into pure energy, she could be seen donning clothes made of pure energy itself.

Her very gaze could make anyone shudder as she has finally returned to her godly form. When the Goddess Bastet returned to her godly form, a gate suddenly appeared on top of her. The gate then pulled her body, and she did not resist as this is the ascension process.

The Goddess Bastet smiled at all her followers and her body vanished into the gate. After the Goddess Bastet returned to her divine realm, the followers that prayed to her suddenly became more powerful as the strength of their goddess has returned. Adrian could even see that the divine energy that they have has become thicker.

The priests then all stood up and praised the Goddess Bastet once more before they returned to their rooms in order to rest. It might seem like the ceremony only lasted a few minutes, but it actually took a whole three hours. Even Adrian did not kept track of the time as he looked at the process of the Goddess Bastet transforming into a being of pure energy.

"A god or goddess is basically a being of pure energy which means they can easily manipulate energy because of this body characteristic." Adrian thought as he made this conclusion from his observation.

It would make sense for gods or goddesses to be beings of pure energy as only they can manipulate energy freely without restraint. When one has a mortal body, they will need to succumb to the limitations of said body. Even if they are demigods, half of their bodies are still that of flesh and bone which means they also have limitations.

"Thank you, Champion Equinox. Without your help, I believe that the Goddess Bastet will not be able to return. On behalf of her temple, I thank you greatly for your service." The High Priestess Estet stated as she gave a bow to Adrian to express her gratitude.

A bow from a High Priestess of any temple is a big deal because they themselves represent their respective religions. Another high official from a temple is actually bowing to a champion that also represents a temple is something that cannot be easily seen.

"You should not show too much gratitude as I only made sure to fulfill my mission that is given to me." Adrian stated.

"Nevertheless, the Temple of Bastet is greatly indebted to you. As long as you need our help in the western continent then we shall always answer your call." The High Priestess Estet stated.

[You have been recognized by the Temple of Bastet as a great contributor.]

Adrian no longer has anything he needs to do at the western continent at the moment. He needs to return back to Limbo first as he has something important there that he needs to do. Something that he has put off for quite some time as new revelations and duties started coming up.

Adrian created a gate that directly leads him to Limbo and went inside. To those that cannot see the energy of death, it looked like Adrian went through a wall and vanished. Only those that are dead and that have death energy in their body could see the door to the afterlife.

[You are now in Limbo.]

Adrian arrived in Limbo and appeared before three of the four former horsemen of the apocalypse. Adrian collected their souls when they died in the northern continent as their souls were on the brink of collapse. Adrian wanted to keep the promise that he made with the three tribes related to them as they want their ancestors to pass through and reincarnate.

"Thank you for meeting us once again, Shepherd of Lost Souls and Honorary Judge of Limbo." The Northern Rider stated with a bow.

The other two soon followed and bowed towards Adrian as he is an authority figure in this realm. When Adrian released their dissipating souls in Limbo, they managed to at least become stable enough to retain some consciousness. The only problem is that they can no longer remember who they are as they no longer know their names.

The reason Adrian is getting a headache from these three is due to the fact that they do not want to crossover to the other side. They are adamant in only crossing over when the last of the four has returned. Their souls are also strong enough to even resist the Anubis gatekeepers which mean Adrian has to deal with them.

"Why not just pas through the door and be judged by the Twin Gods already? I said that I will find the missing soul of the Eastern Rider when I go to the eastern continent. His soul should still be located in the area where he died." Adrian stated as he wants the three to pass through the Gate of Judgement already.

"As we have stated before, we shall only pass that gate with all four of us. We might not remember our names, but we do remember the bond that all four of us have. We are determined to reincarnate as siblings in our next lives." The Western Rider stated.

"I told you before that is not how that works. If you are lucky then all of you will become siblings but you will still be judged as well. I do not even know if you guys will be punished before reincarnation because you did both good and bad. Honestly, even I do not know where your souls will end up to." Adrian stated as that is what he knows.

"We are adamant about our decision. We shall only move pass the Gate of Judgement as four instead of one by one. Please respect our last wishes." The Southern Rider stated as she kneeled before Adrian.
