Holy light bloomed and the gospel was sung.
A dazzling door of light that was like a lake appeared out of thin air right in front of the statue of Jesus.
The door of light emitted tens of thousands of golden rays. Looking from afar, it looked like sunlight reflected in the water.
After the sunlight was refracted by the lake, it began to jump gently along with the ripples on the lake's surface, causing countless golden spots of different sizes to appear on the church's walls and dome.
Looking from afar, it was as if countless little elves were dancing on the church's dome.
If a devout Christian saw this scene, he would probably be so scared that he would kneel on the ground on the spot and shout that Christ had shown his holiness.
Unfortunately, Li Xiuwen and Manager Xun did not believe in Christianity, but in the very mysterious Church of Truth.
As the door of light opened, a huge amount of True Essence leaked out from the door of light.
The so-called leakage originally referred to chemical substances that should not have flowed out or leaked out of the mechanical equipment without anyone noticing, thus causing unnecessary losses.
But now, what was leaking out from the door of light was not some chemical substance, but the True Essence that was painstakingly refined by immortal cultivators …
True Essence was obtained by immortal cultivators through cultivation bit by bit, so theoretically speaking, it was impossible for it to leak.
It was also because of this that once the True Essence leaked out, there was basically only one reason, and that was …
When immortal cultivators accidentally went berserk during cultivation, they would no longer be able to control the True Essence in their body as they wished.
For such a situation, there was a word that could vividly describe it, and that was —
Incontinence.
…
Chen Xi shielded Lin Xuan behind him, then carefully observed the movement in the door of light.
Ever since the door of light appeared, an extremely fanatical expression appeared on Manager Xun's face.
He was clearly seriously injured, but now he was as if nothing had happened. He knelt on the ground with a flushed face, raised his hands, and shouted loudly, "Father, show your holiness! Have mercy on us! Purify everything in this world that dares to disobey you!!! "
As soon as he finished this strange prayer, Manager Xun's face suddenly flushed red. He looked extremely like a religious fanatic who was drunk.
However …
Just as Manager Xun was extremely excited, a red light suddenly shot out from the door of light, directly hitting Manager Xun's glabella.
Then, as if he had been electrocuted, his whole body began to tremble violently, and he couldn't help but let out a painful howl.
"Ah!!! It hurts!!! "
The wailing stopped abruptly.
After that, Steward Xun's appearance aged at a speed visible to the naked eye. His head of black hair looked as if it had been painted with spray paint, turning snow-white in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, Steward Xun had turned into an old man with a head full of white hair and a withered face.
"This … what's going on?! What did I do?! "
Steward Xun's voice was hoarse as he stared at his arm, dumbfounded.
His arm …
Like an eggplant that had lost its moisture, it was full of wrinkles and shriveled, looking particularly horrifying.
"Ah!!!"
Perhaps it was because he was unable to accept everything before his eyes, Steward Xun once again let out a mournful wail.
But this wail didn't last long …
It was as if Steward Xun's neck was suddenly choked by someone. He instantly lost his voice and could only lie paralyzed on the ground, twitching weakly.
But after twitching a few times, Steward Xun lay on the ground, completely dead.
This …
Looking at the dehydrated corpse in front of him, Li Xiuwen was stunned.
But when he finally came back to his senses, put down the Holy Grail, and was about to escape this godforsaken place, a black shadow suddenly appeared in the light door.
It was a person whose entire body was shrouded in a black cloak.
That person only revealed half of his face.
But just based on this half of his face, it was enough to tell that he should be an old man.
The old man walked out of the light door, then asked such a question in a hoarse voice.
"Who … alarmed me …"
After saying that, he slowly removed the cloak, revealing his true appearance.
This was an old man whose eyebrows were stained with silver frost. His weather-beaten face was engraved with the traces of time.
Although his pair of brown eyes were deep in his eye sockets, the gaze in them was very calm. He looked exceptionally kind and amiable, just like the old grandpa next door who lay in the district's garden and basked in the sun every day …
The old man calmly asked the question, but no one answered him.
After all, the only person who knew who he was, Steward Xun, was now lying on the ground as a dried corpse.
…
In reality, the light door was a teleportation array.
The key to activate the array was the cross hanging in front of Steward Xun's chest, but the energy required to activate the array required all of his essence and blood …
Steward Xun activated the array excitedly.
But what he definitely didn't expect was that when the array was activated, it would take his life, and even his soul was not spared.
His soul was destroyed.
Death wasn't scary. What was scary was not even knowing how one died.
After taking a deep look at the light door, Chen Xi couldn't help but feel sad for Steward Xun.
Such a loyal subordinate was abandoned just like that, just from this point alone …
The old man in front of him was really a qualified evil cultivator.
…
Chen Xi held the Divine Sword Dharma Idol in his hand and kept sizing up the old man in front of him.
Lin Xuan, on the other hand, carefully hid behind him.
Because her line of sight was blocked by the altar, she didn't know that Steward Xun was now a dried corpse.
So, after hearing the old man's voice, Lin Xuan curiously poked her head out and quietly sized him up.
The old man was also sizing up Chen Xi.
When he saw the Divine Sword Dharma Idol in Chen Xi's hand, a glimmer of light flashed in his deep eye sockets.
Then, he set his gaze on Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan didn't understand the situation, so she tilted her head and looked at the old man in front of her blankly.
However.
Just this one look …
It was as if some mechanism had been triggered, causing the old man to suddenly explode. Like a venomous snake that had been hibernating for a long time, he directly pounced in the direction of his prey.
Before Lin Xuan could react, the old man had already rushed in front of her.
"Ah!"
Because the distance was too close, Lin Xuan could even clearly see the color spots on the old man's face, so she was so frightened that she couldn't help but cry out.
Seeing this, the old man couldn't help but laugh out loud. "I didn't expect that I would actually find such a high-quality furnace here today. Little girl, you're in luck …"
After saying that, the old man stretched out his withered arm, wanting to directly pull Lin Xuan out from behind Chen Xi.
However.
Just as he stretched out his arm, a cold voice suddenly rang in his ears.
"Get lost!"
As soon as the voice fell.
