Outside the temple,
Countless devotees had gathered here, many still wearing expressions of confusion as they glanced around in disbelief. Just moments ago, a large number of awakening devotees had vanished from this very place—gone without a trace.
Yet now, in the span of a breath, they had all suddenly reappeared.
This baffling scene left everyone stunned, but it also deepened their reverence and piety.
Owen swept his gaze across the people standing in the square. Although it felt like nearly an hour had passed in the divine battlefield, in this world, it seemed only an instant had gone by.
"So this is the power of the one behind the scenes… So many deities are fighting, yet all of time was distorted and suspended…"
Such strength was far beyond anything Owen could comprehend at his current level.
Then, his gaze shifted toward a corner of the town—a corner that had previously been empty and devoid of people.
