What kind of power is that!? It's indeed the Sanctuary-realm! Previously, when Lin Li killed the Undead Elemental Dragon, Archbishop Martin had already guessed that Lin Li had probably stepped into the Sanctuary-realm. Now, he was even more certain. There were hundreds of Legendary-level Corpse Dragons, many of which were at the peak of the Legendary-realm. Only the power of the Sanctuary-realm could dispel such an attack so easily.
Archbishop Martin was now a powerhouse at the peak of the Legendary-realm. In the eyes of others, he might only be a step away from the Sanctuary-realm, but he knew very well that if he did not take that last step, he would always be an insignificant ant in front of a true Sanctuary powerhouse. That was a difference in the nature of power. No matter how powerful the power of the Legendary-realm was, it was still the power of mortals, and could not be compared to the Sanctuary-realm in essence.
On the side of the Rotterdam Kingdom, Donald and the others were also dumbfounded at this moment. They initially thought that Lin Li was so powerful because he had some powerful magical weapon, or even a legendary artifact. However, no matter how reluctant they were, they had to admit that the power that Lin Li displayed was definitely that of the Sanctuary-realm.
The arrogance of the people of the Rotterdam Kingdom was smashed to pieces at this moment. They could no longer imagine what kind of world the outside world of the Rotterdam Kingdom was like. Could it be that the outside world had already become so terrifying? An unknown small force actually has so many Legendary powerhouses, and the leader is actually such a young Sanctuary powerhouse!
However, after the shock, Archbishop Martin, Donald, and the others did not show much joy at the fact that Lin Li had dispelled the attacks of the Corpse Dragons. They did not think that Lin Li could kill all the Corpse Dragons by himself, not to mention that there were other Undead creatures around the expedition apart from the Corpse Dragons. However, during the defense just now, the teams of the Brilliance Shrine and the Rotterdam Kingdom had all suffered varying degrees of damage, and the remaining combat power would probably be difficult to sustain for the next battle.
Faced with such a situation, Donald and the others could not help but feel rather dissatisfied with Lin Li. If Lin Li had attacked earlier, his Alchemy Colossuses would not have been damaged. It was not strange for Donald to have such thoughts. After all, he knew that his partnership with the Tower of Dusk was not very solid.
However, even though he was dissatisfied, Donald did not dare to show it on his face. If he really angered the other party, even if the other party didn't personally make a move, he would have plenty of ways to wipe out his entire army. Not to mention his subordinates, even he himself would not be spared.
The situation at the Brilliance Shrine was actually more dangerous than that of the Rotterdam Kingdom. After all, only one Alchemy Array of the Rotterdam Kingdom's Alchemy Colossuses had been damaged, and the impact on their combat power was not great. But what about the Brilliance Shrine? Be it the Knights of Light or the Priests, all of them had suffered heavy injuries from the defense just now. They might not even be able to display half of their combat power.
However, Archbishop Martin did not think the same way as Donald did. Although he also felt that Lin Li's timing was a little late, he felt that there had to be a reason for Lin Li's actions. After all, even a Sanctuary powerhouse would have to be careful when dealing with the attacks of hundreds of Legendary-level Zombie Dragons.
In fact, it was indeed as Archbishop Martin had thought. Lin Li had only stepped into the Sanctuary-realm for a few months, and it was indeed not difficult for him to deal with eight to 10 enemies who were at the peak of the Legendary-realm. However, if he wanted to defeat hundreds of Legendary-level Zombie Dragons, he would probably have to be as powerful as the three arbitrators.
More importantly, this world was created by the Immortal King, and not Anril. Lin Li stepped into the Sanctuary-realm because of his understanding of the World Laws of Anril. However, this world was an existence that was separated from Anril, and there were many things that he had to understand again.
In fact, from the moment the expedition entered this world, Lin Li had already split some of his mental strength to analyze the structure of the Laws of this world. Fortunately, in the previous world, Lin Li had devoured a portion of Osric's will, which contained his understanding of the world created by the Immortal King. It was precisely because of this understanding that Lin Li was able to grasp the Laws of this world so quickly after coming to this world of the Undead creatures. Otherwise, Lin Li would probably have to patiently comprehend this world for at least 10 days or even a month in order to achieve what he was doing now.
Furthermore, through his analysis of this world, Lin Li also knew that the core of this world was that incomparably huge Undead tree. That Undead tree covered the sky above the ground, but it was even more terrifying under the ground. Its roots almost occupied the entire world, and it even made people suspect that the ground itself was formed by those roots.
Without a doubt, the key to leaving this place was definitely that Undead tree. After disintegrating the attacks of the Corpse Dragons, Lin Li, who had this understanding, immediately set his sights on the Undead tree in the distance. That was his true opponent in this world.
However, Lin Li also knew that the expedition was in a very bad situation now. Although the Tower of Dusk did not suffer any losses, it was impossible for them to resist the attacks of the Corpse Dragons, let alone stall them here. If the teams from the Brilliance Shrine and the Rotterdam Kingdom were in good condition, they might be able to do that. However, they could not provide much help to the situation now.
Under such circumstances, how could Lin Li be at ease leaving the Corpse Dragons to the others? If that was the case, there would be no one left on his side except for a few Legendary powerhouses before he could destroy the Undead tree. He had brought his subordinates here for training, not to send them to their deaths. If that was the case, so what if he obtained the Sky Castle?
Lin Li could not solve the problem of the Rotterdam Kingdom. Even with Angelano, the Guru of Alchemy, repairing the Alchemy Colossuses required time. It was impossible to make all the Alchemy Colossuses as good as new in one go like casting healing magic. Fortunately, the Alchemy Colossuses of the Rotterdam Kingdom were not severely damaged, and it did not affect their combat power too much.
In comparison, the problem of the Brilliance Shrine was undoubtedly the most serious. Although the Holy Light Knights and Priests were not completely defenseless, they might be able to deal with the Skeletal Warriors, but they were simply courting death to deal with the Corpse Dragons. However, Lin Li happened to have a solution to this problem.
At the same time, the members of the expedition on the ground were also worried about this problem, especially Archbishop Martin, who was staring at Lin Li in midair, waiting to see what Lin Li was going to do next. It was because he also knew that although Sanctuary powerhouses would not be afraid of the Corpse Dragons, it would still be very difficult for them to protect a group of people who were almost defenseless under the siege of the Corpse Dragons.
Indeed, to Sanctuary powerhouses, even those who were at the peak of the Legendary-realm were just like ants. However, Lin Li, a Sanctuary powerhouse, was just like a toddler compared to Sanctuary powerhouses like the three arbitrators. Although there was a fundamental difference between a toddler and an ant, if there were too many ants, it would also cause a lot of trouble for a toddler.
At this moment, Archbishop Martin suddenly realized that Lin Li, who had just disintegrated the attack of the Corpse Dragons, had something that he did not have before. It was a ball of light that emitted white light, and Archbishop Martin could sense an extremely pure and holy power from it. It was the pure Power of Holy Light that even Pope Rosario did not possess.
At the moment when he felt that power, Archbishop Martin could not help but think of the scene of the descent of Holy Light described in the doctrine of the Holy Light. In the team of the Brilliance Shrine, Archbishop Martin was not the only one who was holding their breath at this moment. All the Holy Light Knights and Priests were looking at the sky devoutly and passionately at the ball of light in Lin Li's hand.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Li raised the arm that was holding the Holy Light, and the light of the Holy Light in his hand erupted violently in an instant. It was as if a small sun had risen in midair, and the holy light illuminated the entire space. As the Holy Light shone, the people of the Brilliance Shrine immediately felt a wave of Holy Power surging into their bodies. Not only were the injuries in their bodies healed instantly, even their souls were sublimated under the illumination of the Holy Light.
However, the people of the Brilliance Shrine did not exclaim in surprise at all, as if they did not care about the changes in their bodies at all. Instead, they all had tears in their eyes as they chanted prayers that praised the Holy Light piously. To them, they would not have any regrets even if they were to die immediately after being baptized by the Holy Light.
Under the illumination of the Holy Light, the Corpse Dragons that were initially fearless of the Power of Light also involuntarily retreated. Although they no longer had the flaws of ordinary Undead creatures after being modified by the Immortal King, the fear of the Power of Holy Light still rose uncontrollably from the depths of their souls at this moment.
The illumination of the Holy Light did not last long. It only lasted for a second or two before the Holy Light faded again. "Hold these Corpse Dragons back." After Lin Li instructed, his figure suddenly disappeared from the sky above the expedition, and when he reappeared, he was already behind the horde of Corpse Dragons, flying straight towards the Undead tree in the distance.
He left just like that? Archbishop Martin, who had just woken up from the baptism of the Holy Light, was a little stunned by this change. He knew that the Holy Light just now would definitely be of great help to the injuries of his subordinates. However, even so, it would be difficult for the expedition to resist the massive horde of Corpse Dragons without the help of a Sanctuary powerhouse!
"May the Holy Light be with me! I've actually advanced by two levels! " An exclamation came from the team of the Brilliance Shrine, but it was soon followed by more exclamations of surprise, all of whom were surprised by the increase in their levels and abilities.
At this moment, Archbishop Martin finally discovered that the strength of the team that he was leading had increased several times after the baptism of the Holy Light just now. Those who were originally only level-17 or level-18 had been directly promoted to the peak of level-19. Although those who were originally at the peak of level-19 did not directly step into the Legendary-realm, there was clearly a trace of the Laws of Holy Light in their mana waves. Presumably, they would have a higher chance of stepping into the Legendary-realm in the future.
This can't be a dream, right!? Even His Holiness the Pope can't do something like this! Archbishop Martin immediately thought of the item that emitted Holy Light just now. The surge in the abilities of his subordinates had to be because of the Holy Light Baptism just now. That item could actually increase the abilities of the believers of Light so greatly. It was definitely not an ordinary magical item, and it definitely had a great connection with the Brilliance Shrine.
If the Brilliance Shrine could have that item, it would definitely play an unparalleled role in promoting the development of the Brilliance Shrine. Think about it, a level-17 or 18 believer of Light would be directly promoted to the peak of level-19 after being baptized by the Holy Light once. There were so many level-17 or 18 believers of Light in the Brilliance Shrine now, and if they were all promoted to the peak of level-19, how many of them would be able to step into the Legendary-realm!?
However, Archbishop Martin was also very clear that it was basically impossible to really obtain that item. The person who had that item was a true Sanctuary powerhouse, and even His Holiness the Pope would not easily offend a Sanctuary powerhouse.
However, not being able to obtain it did not mean that he would not be able to use it. Archbishop Martin quickly thought of Lin Li's other identity — the Son of The Holy Light. Although Lin Li did not seem to be very willing to admit that identity, the truth was the truth. If they could get through this crisis safely this time, it would be best to try and see if they could get him to join the Brilliance Shrine.
Even if Lin Li was still unwilling to accept the identity of the Son of The Holy Light, it would not be a problem to invite him to the Brilliance Shrine given the relationship between the Brilliance Shrine and the Tower of Dusk. When Lin Li was a guest, he could think of a way to use the power of that item to increase the abilities of the Brilliance Shrine.
In an instant, Archbishop Martin already had a plan in mind, but the most important thing now was how to get through the horde of Corpse Dragons. If they could not get through this, it would be just wishful thinking no matter how comprehensive it was. At the thought of this, Archbishop Martin immediately perked up, and began to organize a team to fight against the horde of Corpse Dragons.
Seeing the changes in the Brilliance Shrine, Donald and the others were really jealous. In the blink of an eye, the Brilliance Shrine not only regained its combat power, but also became several times stronger. On the other hand, the Alchemy Colossuses on their side could only stop to repair themselves if they wanted to recover. It was really hard to tell which was better between the humans and the Alchemy Colossuses. What worried Donald even more was that after this incident, the relationship between the Tower of Dusk and the Brilliance Shrine would definitely become closer, which meant that he would be even more isolated.
