Chen Rui's plan was to split into two. His main body would go to the Snow Peak Platform to get the Snow Dallet Flower, while his avatar, Shura, would go the other way. It was not just to accompany characters like Eliza, but the real goal was at the top of the Holy Mountain.
The 2 began to act separately at the Blessed Temple. Just when Chen Rui encountered the Light Elemental King, Shura, who had dealt with Eliza and Paul, had bypassed the 3 major temples and went directly to the top of the Holy Mountain of Light, which was the forbidden place that only the pope and the 3 patriarchs could enter: the Temple of Light.
After bypassing the guards at the entrance area, there were no obstacles along the way, which seemed to be somewhat inconsistent with the so-called "forbidden place" name. However, this road seemed to be endless. After walking for a while, they were still at the top of this mountain. The top of the mountain that seemed to be not far away still maintained the same distance, as if it was so close yet so far away.
Shura frowned, and his figure suddenly disappeared. A huge thing broke out of the ground and hit the original position, and the hard stone steps suddenly broke apart. This was a giant golden tentacle with a diameter of about 4 meters and a length of about 10 meters. After missing, it extended several meters and lashed straight at Shura who appeared in the air. Shura dodged again, and tentacles appeared one after another on the ground as if the whole mountain was a giant octopus.
"Is this the 'holy beast'?" Shura thought of what Miranda said about the temple and smiled contemptuously, "Let's not talk about its strength first, its aesthetics are quite poor."
Countless tentacles entangled him, and Shura's figure flashed rapidly. After a dazzling movement, those tentacles were entangled together and were actually tied into a dead knot. The ground was constantly cracking and trembling because of the violent struggle, but he could never break free from the dead knot.
"It seems that I can often see this scene in the anime in my memory. This is a killer move against tentacles …" Shura said to himself, and his voice suddenly rose, "Come out! You are the one who created the tricks on this road, right? As long as I kill you, I can go to the top of the mountain to see the scenery. "
"How arrogant!" A man's silhouette gradually became clearer in the void. It was a silver-haired man wearing a golden robe with a deep face. "It's been a long time since I've met such a reckless intruder. I'll let you be annihilated in the holy light!"
A powerful flame whizzed over. Shura's eyes flashed with a red light, and he swung his arm like a whip, whipping the flame. It landed on the huge tentacles that were entangled together. The flame exploded, and the huge tentacles turned into ashes.
Although Shura had deflected the man's flame, his body was pushed back a few steps in the opposite direction. He felt his arm go numb. "Hmph, you do have some brute force."
"To be able to block an attack from me, Sir Rhadamanro, means you have some strength. Don't worry, it has been tens of thousands of years since I last exercised properly. I won't let you die too quickly." By the time Rhadamanro said the last word, he had already appeared in front of Shura. His arms turned into tens of shadows that enveloped Shura.
Shura struggled to defend himself, but he was still unable to block the attacks. In the blink of an eye, his body was torn into several pieces. Rhadamanro's face was filled with disdain. "What a disappointing —"
Before he could finish speaking, he saw a strange smile flash across Shura's shattered face. Rhadamanro immediately understood. "An illusion?"
Before Rhadamanro could react, he was immediately alerted, and his entire body was sent flying by a powerful gust of wind behind him. Almost at the same time, a ghost-like figure intercepted the off-balance Rhadamanro in mid-air. Bang! Bang! Bang! The sounds of intense attacks rang out. Rhadamanro was a little dazed by this round of attacks. His body, which had been sent flying, was pulled back, and he was thrown up into the sky due to the powerful inertia. Meanwhile, Shura's figure instantly appeared at the highest point in the sky. He cupped his fists and fiercely smashed down with the power of thunder.
"Boom!" After the dust settled, there was a crater in the ground that looked like a meteor had fallen. Rhadamanro slowly stood up, gritting his teeth as he looked at the enemy in the sky. At this moment, his dazzling golden robe had been torn into strips like a beggar's, and his entire body was covered in dust. He was in an extremely sorry state.
What caught Shura's attention was that Rhadamanro's body actually did not have any injuries even after such intense attacks. This fellow's offensive and defensive abilities were astonishingly high.
After a few more exchanges, the two sides had already exchanged countless high-speed attacks. Rhadamanro no longer dared to underestimate Shura. Not only was this enemy's strength on par with his, but he was also proficient in illusions. When combined with reality and illusion, Rhadamanro was at a huge disadvantage.
Rhadamanro feinted with his fist and pulled away from Rhadamanro. Suddenly, the flames around his body surged, and the space around him seemed to be burning as strange distortions appeared. Dark clouds shrouded the sky, emitting a destructive domain power.
For a moment, Shura's aura seemed to be suppressed to its lowest point. Rhadamanro roared, "Stardust Shower!"
The dark clouds in the sky exploded, and countless lightning bolts and huge glowing raindrops poured down on Shura. There was no way for him to dodge. In addition to Rhadamanro's own domain power, this attack also contained a special enhancement. If Chen Rui was here, he should be able to use Analytical Eyes to determine that Rhadamanro's strength had already reached S + + rank!
Shura instinctively felt the immense threat of this attack. His eyes glowed red, and in the blink of an eye, he was completely enveloped by the power of the "Stardust Shower". However, something that surprised Rhadamanro happened. The trajectory of the "Stardust Shower" suddenly underwent a strange change, as though it had been strongly attracted by something. It was as though Shura had opened his mouth and "swallowed" all the lightning and light rain.
What was even more unbelievable was what happened next. Shura spread his hands and shouted, "Stardust Shower!"
Countless lightning bolts and light rain poured down and rushed towards Rhadamanro. Rhadamanro was dumbfounded. This was his ultimate move!
Illusion?
The intense sense of danger told him that this was definitely not an illusion!
The violent stardust shower rained down on the mountain peak, and the entire mountain peak became a scene of devastation in the blink of an eye.
In the center of the attack, Rhadamanro, who had been hit by his own ultimate move, was riddled with bloody holes. He was completely covered in blood. Rhadamanro, who was both shocked and furious, let out a bestial roar. His body began to expand rapidly, and huge bat wings extended from his back.
There were already many wounds on Shura's body. Although no blood flowed out, it was clear that his injuries were not light. In reality, Rhadamanro's strength was not to be underestimated. It was not easy for him to use "An eye for an eye" just now, and he had also suffered relatively heavy injuries.
"So, you are the true 'Holy Beast' … Should I call you a Saint-dragon? More accurately speaking, this is the second Saint-dragon I've seen. "
Shura quietly watched Rhadamanro's transformation as he spoke indifferently. A Star Domain appeared in his eyes, and his figure began to blur, as if there were double images appearing.
"The Stardust Shower is nothing more than a gentle breeze and drizzle. I'll let you see what a true Stardust Shower is!"
Palace of Divine Seals, Snowy Peak Platform
In front of the Snow Dallet Tree, Chen Rui clenched his fist, and light erupted. The Snow Dallet Flower's Ancient Runic Magic Formation had been forcefully broken. Normally, it would have taken him at least half a day to break it, but now that his whereabouts had been exposed, he had used the fastest method, which was to cause the Ancient Runes to clash with each other and finally remove the defensive formation.
Almost at the same time, a figure dressed in a silver robe appeared in Chen Rui's line of sight. This was an old man who looked to be in his sixties. His hair and beard were all white, and from his clothes and crown, he should be the highest authority of the Holy Mountain of Light, the Radiant Pope Fandis.
Race: Human
Overall Strength Assessment: SS- (S + +)
Physique: S- (S), Strength: S + (S), Spirit: SS- (S + +), Speed: S + + (SS-)
Analysis: Light Element. Danger Level: Extremely Dangerous.
Fandis' strength was similar to Saintess Udora's. His true strength had not reached the level of a Kingdom, but within the Palace of Divine Seals, he could use the power of a Kingdom. If they fought head-on, they would definitely not be his match.
"So it's Your Holiness Fandis." Chen Rui's palm contained a destructive white light, and he aimed it at the Snow Dallet Tree, "Don't act rashly, Your Holiness. Perhaps you have the ability to kill me in an instant … but I also have the ability to turn these three Holy Trees into burial objects."
A cold light appeared in Fandis' eyes, and he slowly descended, "Who are you? Why have you entered the Holy Mountain! "
Of course, Chen Rui couldn't say that his goal was the current "hostage" Snow Dallet Tree. He just showed a relaxed look, "If I say that I'm here for sightseeing, would Your Holiness believe me?"
At this moment, there were a few more figures in the air behind him, and they landed one after another. There was Saintess Udora, Paladin Captain Pasari, and three Cardinal Bishops. There was also a middle-aged man who Udora had not seen before. He should be one of the three giants, the controller of the Palace of Stars, Bishop Pusmir. Other than Chief Inquisitor Seuss who was outside cleaning up the Black Death Apostles, the highest level of the Church of Light were all here.
"It's you!" Looking at Chen Rui who maintained the appearance of "Richard", Udora showed a look of disbelief. It was obvious that he was the Holy Light Guardian Knight of the Blessed Palace that she had personally appointed! Chen Rui once shone in the cavalry competition. Pasari and the others who recognized him were also shocked.
At this moment, Udora felt that the power of the Blood Oath of Light contract was suddenly broken. She was even more shocked: To break the contract, one must have the strength of a demi-god. What is this "Richard" …
"Who is he?" Fandis frowned.
Udora replied, "His name is Richard. His real name might be Simon. He pretended to be the follower of Pasari's disciple Paul to participate in the selection of the Temple Knights. He even tricked me into making him a Holy Light Guardian Knight. I didn't expect him to be a spy!"
"Simon? What is your purpose? "
"Have you heard of the phrase 'creating a diversion'? If I say that I have an accomplice, and that I am here just to attract your attention … "Chen Rui's hand still maintained the posture of being ready to destroy the snow tree at any time. He said calmly," Then guess, where is our real destination? "
As he said this, Chen Rui deliberately looked at the top of the mountain that went deep into the clouds. As soon as he said this, Fandis, Udora, and Pusmir were all shocked. Fandis' figure instantly appeared in the distance, and his angry voice came, "I will go to the Temple of Light. I will leave this place to you!"
