The fourth chapter.
The number of transparent creatures seemed to be endless. Within a distance of 12 kilometers, the transparent creatures swarmed forward. When they approached Salin and the others, more transparent creatures were still surging out of the temple.
The tallest of these transparent creatures was close to 10 meters, and their appearances were similar to humans. They had human faces and limbs, and the tentacles growing from their ribs were more like breathing organs. They didn't have much offensive power. When the 300-plus undead were surrounded by these transparent creatures, Salin realized that his thoughts were wrong. The tentacles of the transparent creatures had pierced into the bones of the undead and were trying to absorb their flesh and blood.
Most of the power of the undead came from their soul fire, and their bones also contained energy. When the tentacles drilled into the bones of the undead, they were paralyzed by the poison of the undead. There were at least three transparent creatures hanging on each undead. Nelis simply stored the undead and the transparent creatures into the 12 Movements of Purgatory at the same time.
Only the Demon God Purgatory of her 12 Movements of Purgatory had begun to expand. The other 11 spaces were only left with a dozen or so cubic meters. The space where Eileen had once existed had become a little larger, but the plants inside had withered. It was only about 30 cubic meters in size. Nelis sent the undead into it along with the transparent creatures. The space had just absorbed the bone marrow of the Fear Angel. A bit of Law spread out, and the undead shattered one after another. Their soul fire was absorbed into the space.
The transparent creatures were even more unbearable. Their bodies were like bubbles that exploded with a pop. Blue liquid flowed out and was absorbed by the space. The space rapidly expanded.
Salin didn't join the battle. His body was surrounded by 12 blue Ice Condors. The blue Ice Condors had compressed their bodies to a height of 20 meters. They could kill these transparent creatures in one blow without any obstruction. Even those seemingly powerful transparent creatures were no match for the blue Ice Condors.
Nicholas went on a killing spree. Every time his Depraved Scepter hit the ground, a gray light would shine within a 100-meter radius. All the transparent creatures that got close to him were not spared. Their souls were all sucked into the Crimson Soul Tower.
Nelis and Salin shared their senses and could see the temple in the distance. She charged toward the torrent of transparent creatures. In the beginning, she could only kill three to five transparent creatures at a time. When her space was large enough, she could devour more and more transparent creatures.
The speed at which the 12 Movements of Purgatory devoured the transparent creature increased. Nelis turned around and charged back. She didn't dare to be too far away from Salin. Their shared perception was limited by distance. The further they were apart, the more mental energy Salin had to expend. Nelis simply stopped 100 meters away from Nicholas. She let go of half of the transparent creatures and let Nicholas kill them. As for herself, she stored the other half into the 12 Movements of Purgatory.
The space in the 12 Movements of Purgatory grew larger and larger, gradually expanding to a kilometer in size. Nelis was delighted because this space could indeed absorb souls like the Blood-colored Soul Pagoda. What was even better than the Crimson Soul Pagoda was that this space could also contain real matter, such as those transparent creatures.
"Who is it? Who is killing my believers! " A high-pitched female voice came from the depths of the temple. The voice roared and stirred up the sand on the seabed, blurring Sarin's vision. Fortunately, the Elemental Eyes could penetrate the power of the six elements. The sand only blocked his line of sight for a moment before Sarin regained his insight.
Nelis was afraid that the screaming woman would come out. She took the initiative to cut off the sharing of perception and charged toward the endless transparent creatures. This time, she didn't even give Nicholas any soup to drink. A large number of transparent creatures were stored in her equipment space and their souls were absorbed.
My believers?
Sarin felt very strange when he heard the woman's voice. These transparent creatures clearly had the power bestowed upon them by Goddess Myers. Could it be that Goddess Myers was in this temple?
Impossible. If Goddess Myers had resurrected, it was impossible for him not to know. If she hadn't fallen, then his contract wouldn't have taken effect.
Dong, dong …
The temple began to shake, and the high-pitched female voice shouted angrily.
"Blasphemers, you will all die!"
This time, even Nicholas was puzzled. He was a fallen priest, so of course he could sense that these souls contained weak divine power. It was the power bestowed by the gods. A voice came from afar and drilled into Nicholas's ears. Nicholas couldn't help but hesitate. A few transparent creatures that escaped the net pounced on his body and were absorbed by him with the Codex of Corruption.
Nelis killed wildly for a while before returning to Sarin's side and resuming the sharing of perception.
The distant temple was on the verge of collapse. In the temple's gate, a huge transparent creature drilled out a head with a diameter of more than ten meters, trying to crawl out.
Nelis was excited when she saw this scene. This big guy was quite powerful. It was at least a level-eight or level-nine creature. Swallowing a few more of these things would be extremely beneficial to her Purgatory Space.
Sarin released the Water Ripple Shield, then used voice transmission magic to say, "Nelis, Nicholas, I don't know what's in the temple twelve miles away, but this temple is ours. Don't damage it too much."
Sarin could see that the existence in this temple might be very powerful, but it couldn't leave the temple. There was a contract between him and the goddess, and that existence must be restricted by the temple. In other words, the contract between him and the goddess was higher than this monster with the female voice.
If the monster wanted to attack him, it would be equivalent to breaking the contract with the goddess, and the temple would restrict its actions. After simple reasoning, Sarin was not worried about his situation. Tens of thousands of transparent creatures had been killed, and he didn't see the monster come out to deal with him. It just hid in the temple and roared.
If roaring was useful, then what was the point of learning magic?
There was really a temple hidden here. So, there would also be one in the wasteland north of Metatlin? Why did the goddess build the temple in such a remote place? This was of no help in spreading the doctrine. Could it be that the goddess really realized that she was going to fall and left a foreshadowing in advance?
This was not impossible. After advancing to Magic Shooter, his perception of danger had strengthened, even more so after his soul power had increased. According to the description of the Grand Master and others, after Myers became a god, she was at least an existence above level-16. Judging from the seed of the divine tree he obtained, the goddess might have already reached level-18.
It was not surprising that a level-18 god could foresee the future, right?
Didn't that Cain also predict that he would enter the Abyss King City?
But at the same time, Sarin thought of another problem. The goddess foresaw that she was going to fall, but there was no way to stop it. Was this the fate that the astrologer spoke of, a fate that even the gods couldn't change?
If that was the case, what was his fate? Sarin thought of his two Star Condensation Needles. If he cultivated them to level-10 or above, he should be able to foresee some traces of fate, right?
The shrill and resounding goddess began to recite divine texts, and the transparent creatures attacking Sarin and the others began to retreat. It seemed that the monster also knew that relying on a large number of transparent creatures would not be able to deal with Sarin.
Sarin was very puzzled. These transparent creatures should have dominated a part of the sea, but with such low combat power, how could they do this?
However, there were a large number of these transparent creatures, and they were just the right tonic for the 12 Movements of Purgatory. Nicholas also urgently needed souls to improve his strength. In the battle of Iron Wall City, Sarin had slaughtered so many people, but he didn't dare to let Nelis and Nicholas take action. Killing these ordinary people was one thing, but if he absorbed their souls, it would cause panic among the nobles on the entire continent.
Back then, the black mages were powerful and had the backing of the Black Demon God, but they were still defeated and killed because the fear they caused was too strong, causing everyone to have an irremovable resistance.
Thinking of this, Sarin took out the Dimensional Stone, the Bestowal Ring, and wore it on his hand. He chanted the four most familiar divine texts, and a green light lit up. It was as if there was a dazzling lamp above Sarin's head.
The blood and body fluids of the transparent creatures were blue, and they shimmered in the pitch-black seawater. Sarin's green divine light lit up, and these transparent creatures no longer listened to the call of the female voice in the temple. They turned and pounced at Sarin again.
Although there was very little divine power in the Bestowal Ring, such pure divine power was far more attractive to these transparent creatures than the call in the temple. Hundreds of thousands of transparent creatures surged toward Sarin again. Nelis could not wait to open the Purgatory space and began a massacre without any scruples.
The door of the temple was blocked by a huge head, and the huge transparent creature had yet to crawl out.
"Why do you have my ring!?" The female voice in the temple was already hoarse, and a strong sound wave erupted in the seawater, causing the seawater near the temple to seem to boil.
Your ring?
Sarin thought to himself, This thing is probably insane. Even the clone of a goddess won't survive after falling. Who is this? She actually thinks of herself as Goddess Myers. It seems that even she believes it.
The voice roared repeatedly. Sarin felt that his soul was stable, and his mental power did not suffer much impact. He felt that this guy who thought of himself as Goddess Myers would not be too strong. At least, she was not as strong as Joey or Faka.
"Blasphemer, return my ring to me! I am a great and immortal god. I will pardon your sins! "The female voice roared hysterically, and Sarin felt it was a little harsh.
"Nelis, Nicholas, hurry up. I'm going to see what's causing trouble." Sarin urged his two subordinates.
"Master, I can't hurry …" Nicholas said helplessly.
