At the peak of the Holy Mountain, in the Temple of Light.
"Michael, this Sword Formation of Great Light consumes too much power. My kingdom's power is almost depleted, and I need more power of faith to replenish it. Otherwise, I won't be able to continue." The one who said this was none other than the other peak fake god from the surface world, Lagur, who had fought with Chen Rui when the Gate of the Two Realms appeared.
"Lagur, don't push your luck! I've already given you one-third of the power of faith accumulated on the Holy Mountain. Isn't that enough? "Michael raised his eyebrows and was about to lose his temper.
After suffering a crushing defeat to Quiriana, Michael and the other two returned to the Holy Mountain with injuries. In order to deal with the powerful Quiriana, Michael found the Sword Formation of Great Light that the God of Light had left behind.
The Sword Formation of Great Light was extremely powerful. Back in the war of the gods, its name struck fear into the hearts of many. The problem was that the core of the formation was divine power. Since the gods had fallen, they could no longer obtain the protection of divine power. Even the barrier of the main plane formed by the gods was weakening year by year. It could only be maintained by sacrificing lives.
Michael's plan was to use the power of faith and life condensed by the Book of Creation to barely replace it. Although its power would be greatly reduced, it would at least have a fighting chance.
Lagur was originally one of the oracles and had the talent to absorb, transfer, and instill faith. This time, the three angels invited Lagur here to borrow his talent to complete the Sword Formation of Great Light and fight against Quiriana.
Lagur had wanted to join the Holy Mountain back then and get a share of the God of Light's faith. However, because of his greed, the three angels detested him, so he was rejected.
Although Lagur did not dare to fall out with them because of his inferior strength, he had always held a grudge. Now that the three angels had something to ask of him, they naturally took advantage of the situation and raised many excessive demands, including a third of the power of faith that the Holy Mountain of Light had accumulated. Now, they even asked for more faith, which made the three angels burst with anger.
Michael's eyes were filled with killing intent. Normally, he would have fallen out with them, but for the Sword Formation of Great Light, he could only temporarily hold back his anger.
Gabriel sneered. "Lagur, don't be too greedy! We've already made an agreement and even signed the contract long ago! "
"At our level, we naturally understand that there are loopholes in contracts. Right now, I'm the one who has contributed the most, and I've even exceeded expectations. Naturally, I need to compensate you." Raquel glanced at Gabriel mockingly.
"Are you on the same level as us?" Raphael was indeed an expert at attracting hatred. His words made Raquel's face turn red.
"Why don't you find someone else to do it? In any case, I'm all alone. I can't compare to your Church of Light, which has a huge business. "Raquel knew that the Great Light Sword Formation couldn't do without him.
"If you continue to be so long-winded, we might as well break up." Gabriel said coldly, "The destruction of the Abyss is indiscriminate. If worst comes to worst, when Quiriana comes, everyone will be annihilated together."
Raquel narrowed his eyes and looked at Michael, provoking him: "Gabriel can represent you?"
"Of course!" Raphael beat him to it. "The three of us have always been on the same side."
Michael was already at the end of his patience. He looked at Raphael, then at Gabriel, and nodded. "Since you're so insistent, then let's tear up the contract."
Raquel's eyes twitched. He only wanted to take the opportunity to bargain. If he really tore up the contract, the 'safety rules' in the contract would also become invalid. Looking at the stance of the three, they would probably kill him immediately. This was their lair, and he had no confidence in escaping alive under the joint attack of the three angels.
"The Great Light Sword Formation has already been completed so much, and now you're telling me to give up?" Raquel was extraordinarily thick-skinned. He said in a dignified manner, "The most important thing now is to join hands to fight against the Abyss. Put everything else aside."
The three angels were very disdainful of Raquel's attitude, but now was not the time to be calculative. They had to complete the Great Light Sword Formation as soon as possible. Gabriel had purposely mocked Raquel just now to knock him down a peg, not to really give up.
At this moment, Michael suddenly sensed something. His figure swayed, and he disappeared on the spot. Michael was not the only one. The other three had also sensed something amiss, and they all left the Temple of Light one after another.
Looking forward from the Holy Light Mountain, they could see a large patch of blood-red sky rapidly spreading toward Holy Light City.
"Abyss!" Raphael's expression changed. The Abyss, which was supposed to be wreaking havoc in the eastern part of the continent, had actually invaded the Holy Light Mountain! Could it be that Quiriana's injuries had healed so quickly?
The previous battle in the Silver Moon Immortal Capital had made the three angels realize the gap between them and Quiriana. If the Great Light Sword Formation had been completed, they might have been able to put up a fight. However, the Great Light Sword Formation was not yet complete!
White Cliff was the base camp of the Church of Light. It had stood in the world for many years, and no one could shake it. This was not only because of their faith and deterrence, but also because of their strength. Perhaps they had to thank Chen Rui and Ben Hong. After the few times they had broken into the Holy Light Mountain, their defenses had been strengthened by several times. Now, whenever they encountered a situation, their reaction speed was extremely fast.
This was especially so after Michael issued the highest state of alert, and all defenses were activated.
The originally spacious streets now had many fortress-like iron gates, and the seemingly decorative pillars on both sides had turned into magic formation towers that could attack any approaching enemies. Holy Light City, which relied on the Holy Light Mountain, had also become a heavily armed city. All of the Radiant Knights, judges, and the Holy Light Knights under the jurisdiction of the three peaks were quickly mobilized and assembled.
The speed of the blood-red clouds gradually slowed down, but the iron gates began to crumble at a speed visible to the naked eye. The magic formation towers, which were constantly activated, were also rapidly collapsing. All of this was caused by an endless tide of blood-red creatures.
Everything in their way, be it the Radiant Knights or the buildings, was drowned in this blood-red flood.
When the last iron gate was reached, countless flashing white meteors descended from the sky, and the flood at the forefront was engulfed by the meteors.
Several flames and sword lights flew out from the rear of the blood-red army, trying to resist the meteors, but the flames were instantly extinguished by the meteors. Only the sword lights managed to resist, but still could not stop the falling meteors. This was no longer an ordinary light magic, "Luminous Meteors", but a killer move that contained the power of a peak demigod, "Star Judgment".
The origin of the meteors was a silver spear engraved with simple patterns. It was held in the hand of an eight-winged angel in the sky. It was the strongest demigod, Kamel.
The light of the spear of judgment grew brighter and brighter. Even the elite abyssal lords could not withstand it, and were turned into ashes by the falling meteors.
The power of "Star Judgment" was astonishing. All the abyssal creatures that approached were annihilated, but it consumed a lot of power. After a while, Kamel began to feel a little tired. However, the rhythm of the flood did not change at all, as if they did not know that death was in front of them. They kept advancing, including the abyssal lords who caused the most pressure. The entire abyssal army seemed endless and did not diminish at all.
Some crystal objects appeared in the flood of abyssal creatures. Upon closer inspection, they were Duoduo crimson crystal flowers, emitting a demonic bloody color. Flowers of Abyss!
These flowers exploded at the same time, turning into a bloody mist that spread out.
In the bloody mist, the monsters all changed. The skinny gap demons became extremely strong, and the bone spikes of the violent demons doubled in length … These changes were not only superficial, but also brought a leap in power.
Among the dazzling stars, the originally weak sword light became fierce. As several sword auras crisscrossed, the "Star Judgment" was actually torn apart. The abyssal army was like a flood that had opened the floodgates. In an instant, they had already surged through the last iron gate and rushed in the direction of Holy Light City.
Kamel could not stop them in time and was surrounded by flying sword auras. The elite abyssal lords that had been strengthened by the Flowers of Abyss gave Kamel a sense of danger. He forcefully suppressed the backlash from the collapse of his ultimate move and shook the spear in his hand to deflect the attacking sword auras. Then, he pierced through the chest of the abyssal lord at the front.
In the past, even an elite Lord of the Abyss would have been annihilated by this attack. Now, however, the Lord of the Abyss only roared angrily and continued to charge forward fearlessly, ignoring the huge hole in its chest. Kamel did not dare to be careless. He flashed and appeared at the side of the abyssal lord. With a precise sweep of the spear, he smashed the abyssal lord's wound from the side. Finally, the abyssal lord could not take it anymore, and its body was torn into pieces.
Kamel looked at the large number of abyssal lords and fiery sorceresses in front of him. He waved his hand, and a group of angels appeared in the air behind him. There were six-winged, four-winged, and two-winged angels, and they faced the enemies.
Without the air resistance, the abyssal army on the ground quickly approached Holy Light City. At this moment, a cold snort sounded in everyone's heart. Then, they saw a sun-like radiance appear on the Holy Light Mountain, illuminating the entire White Cliff.
Wherever the radiance went, all the blood-red color turned into particles and dissipated. In the blink of an eye, the blood-red color disappeared like a receding tide.
When the "sunlight" gradually disappeared, all the blood-red color and the terrifying suffocating feeling disappeared. Even the opponents of Kamel and the others in the air were turned into ashes.
The Radiant Knights and the believers of Holy Light City knew that it must have been the three supreme angels who had made a move. All of them cheered and their morale was greatly boosted.
However, the blood-red color didn't disappear completely. Since the starting point, it made a comeback, and it was still as fierce and endless as before.
On the Holy Mountain, Raphael pointed his silver staff forward. He was about to attack again when he was stopped by Michael. "There's no way to kill all these small fries. Don't waste your energy for nothing. The real enemy …"
"It's already appeared," Gabriel finished. His silver-red eyes, which had been closed all this time, had already opened.
In the blood-red clouds in the sky behind the abyssal army, a pair of eyes vaguely appeared.
This pair of eyes had a strange power. Just one look at them would make one's soul tremble irresistibly. It was as if all the strength and courage had disappeared, and only fear was left.
The blood-red clouds became thinner and thinner, as if they were being absorbed by something on the ground. Scorching lava flowed on the ground. Countless sparkling and translucent blood-red light flashed in the lava, and countless Flowers of the Abyss flowed out.
In the center of the crystalline light, a figure gradually became clearer.
This was the body of a man. He had a handsome appearance, long purplish-green hair, a slender figure, and pointy ears. His pupils flickered with a demonic blood-red color.
"Sosbach, the Ruler of Terror!" Michael said in a low voice, and he clenched the Holy Cross Sword in his hand.
