Rod felt a chill in his heart and immediately left his palace to head to the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground.
The priests of the Holy Fire had been waiting here for a long time; a High Rank Priest bowed and said, "Lord Rod, please come in, His Majesty the Holy Emperor is waiting for you."
Rod looked up, and on both sides of the great hall, a dense crowd of priests kneeled, leaving only a straight path.
At the end of the hall, the closed gate had been opened, and an incredibly heavy golden light shone through.
Rod couldn't help but feel nervous as he quickly crossed through the kneeling crowd and stepped into the gate, arriving at the center of the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground, the throne of the Fire Saint Emperor.
To Rod's surprise, this was a very deep area, the entire space seemed to float in the boundless universe, and that cluster of flames shining with infinite golden light seemed to be the center of the universe.
