At this time, the starry sky gradually faded as if the body of the soul was emptied. Chen Rui's figure appeared in the air.
The scene of almost annihilation just now left him with a lingering fear. That kind of power was too terrifying. With his current strength, he couldn't touch it. Fortunately, he had the Super System, otherwise he would have been annihilated in an instant.
The trace of power extracted by the Super System at the critical moment couldn't be converted into aura. It was just swallowed by the Super System's [Star Devouring] and retained in [Star Conversion].
With the frightening moment just now, Chen Rui didn't dare to touch this terrifying power easily. He temporarily turned off the function of [Star Conversion], which was equivalent to sealing it up. He would study it slowly when his strength and time were ripe.
After the purification in the [Galaxy Space], Chen Rui's Star Power was comprehensively purified and consolidated. His comprehensive strength rose to S + +. His strength, physique, and speed finally reached S + + synchronized with his spirit power. He was only one step away from nationalization.
The most important thing was that Chen Rui had figured out the way forward. He would no longer forcibly comprehend the law, including the power of the [True Flame Shackles] that he had absorbed. Instead, he would further refine his strength. By then, he could naturally break through the bottleneck in his strongest state.
At this moment, Chen Rui suddenly frowned. He saw that the space in the sky began to distort irregularly. The nearby stars were all repelled, and a faint human figure appeared in the [Galaxy Space].
This figure seemed to be teleported by some special power. It was originally just a phantom, but then the phantom began to become clear quickly. The huge momentum that accompanied it also became stronger. Although the challengers in the [Galaxy Tower] below were protected in an independent small space, they could still clearly feel the overwhelming and terrifying power.
The luster of the entire starry sky dimmed, and even the stars seemed to be trembling slightly. In the blink of an eye, the figure had quickly materialized. The information in [Analytical Eyes] made Chen Rui frown slightly. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
This was a man wearing a long robe. He was rather tall, had white hair, blue eyes, and a handsome appearance. His white and blue robe was embroidered with gold, and there were two pairs of white wings of light on his back. He looked gorgeous and dignified, and his entire body emitted a bright and holy aura.
Race: Human (Mutated)
Comprehensive Strength Assessment: SS.
Physique SS-, Strength SS-, Spirit SS +, Agility SS-
[Analysis]: Light Element, Water Element, Space Compression.
Danger Level: Extremely Dangerous!
This kind of attire, this kind of power aura, this kind of data, Chen Rui immediately understood the identity of this person.
The Church of Light, the Four-Winged Angel!
Not only were the trial-takers in the Tower of Light shocked, but even the higher-ups of the Starlight Academy in front of the magic mirror were shocked. An angel from the Church of Light was already a demigod-level super powerhouse. She had actually descended into the space of the Tower of Stars. This was something that had never happened before!
The three deans quickly exchanged glances, and instantly reached a consensus. Reggiana nodded. "You guys stay here and watch. I'll go get the old dean immediately."
In the space of the Tower of Stars, the Four-Winged Angel emitted a powerful and intimidating aura. He looked at the man floating in the air opposite him, who did not show any signs of surprise or awe. He frowned slightly. "My name is Ze Hongen, one of the Cherubim under the God of Light. Human, tell me your name."
Ze Hongen's aura did give Chen Rui a lot of pressure, but he was not as nervous as he had been when he faced Isyorul. He had broken through the restrictions of the True Flame Shackles, and could use the Polar Transformation as he pleased.
Ze Hongen's strength was on the same level as Isyorul's. Therefore, facing this Ze Hongen who wanted to intimidate him as soon as he appeared, Chen Rui appeared very calm.
As Mister Lomont had just received his lunchbox, Chen Rui bowed slightly and answered without blushing, "Paglio."
"Your calmness surprises me. I have to give you a word of praise. You are the most outstanding Saint-level expert I have ever seen. No wonder you are an extraordinary person who can affect 'that power'." Ze Hongen retracted his intimidating aura and praised him.
"'That power'?" Chen Rui asked tentatively. "Is it the main body of this projection space?"
A strange light flashed across Ze Hongen's eyes. "You can actually tell that this is a projection?"
"It's just a little talent. I hope you can satisfy my curiosity, Lord Ze Hongen." Chen Rui wanted to get some information out of him, so he pretended to bow again.
"I'm sorry, Paglio. This is one of the top secrets of the Church of Light." Ze Hongen shook his head. "However, you still have a chance. With your talent and comprehension ability, as long as you join the Church, it is only a matter of time before you understand this secret. Perhaps one day, when your strength and level are sufficient, you will have the opportunity to truly touch it."
"Lord, you mean …" Chen Rui's eyes lit up. "Join the Church?"
At this moment, there was a flash of light outside the Starlight Tower. Two people appeared. One was Dean Reggiana, who had disappeared not long ago. The other was an old man with white hair and a beard. This old man looked very old at first glance, but upon closer inspection, his skin was rosy and his eyes were bright and full of expression. He had a vitality that did not match his age.
As soon as this old man appeared, a few senior members of the academy bowed. "Dean!"
This was the former dean of Starlight Academy, Carlisle. He had stayed in the academy and was obsessed with research. It was said that his strength had already reached the supra level.
Carlisle nodded slightly. His gaze fell on the magic mirror, and he was instantly moved. "Ze Hongen?"
Reggiana asked, "Dean, this Ze Hongen …"
"The Four-Winged Cherub under the command of Raphael, the Third Supreme Angel of the Church of Light. He is known as the 'God's Explorer'." Carlisle sighed. "His strength is even higher than mine."
Reggiana was secretly shocked. "How did this Cherub descend into the space of the Starlight Tower?"
"The Starlight Tower is originally a projection space attached to something in the Holy Mountain of Light." Carlisle shook his head slightly. "This matter involves a secret that is at least hundreds of thousands of years old. There are many inside stories that even I do not know. It is worth mentioning that, even so, in the history of the Starlight Tower, no angel from the Church has directly descended into the Starlight Tower. I think it is necessary for you to tell me everything that happened in detail, especially the person opposite Ze Hongen. I think this anomaly has something to do with him."
The magic mirror could not transmit sound, so the conversation between Chen Rui and Ze Hongen could not be heard by Carlisle and the others outside.
"It is so easy to talk to smart people." Ze Hongen smiled like a spring breeze. "You have the strength, the potential, and the talent is extremely outstanding. You will be the most important talent to be nurtured and provided with all the necessary resources. If you are willing, I can recommend you to become a Holy Disciple under the direct command of the Supreme Angel, Lord Raphael."
"Holy Disciple?" Chen Rui revealed a meaningful smile. He had faced four Holy Disciples previously, severely injured two and killed two. Later on, he had played the remaining eight Holy Disciples in the encirclement battle.
"Holy Disciples are the strongest divine warriors. Every Holy Disciple has special abilities and eternal life. Even if their bodies die, their souls will be reborn in the Kingdom of God." Ze Hongen's words were full of temptation, but he did not know that the so-called "rebirth" had long been seen through by the person in front of him.
"As far as I know, the basic requirement to become a Holy Disciple should be the Body of Light Blessing, right?" Chen Rui asked calmly. "I do not have that kind of royal bloodline."
He indeed did not have the Body of Light Blessing, but the Body of Brilliant Light, the highest light attribute physique that only the current Pope, Fandis, had.
"It seems that you understand the Church quite well." Ze Hongen's smile did not change. "Originally, Holy Disciples have this requirement, but for talents like you, they can make an exception and promote you. If you can break through to the Kingdom level in one go, then Lord Raphael will personally host your baptism and grant you the power of an Angel."
"I see." Chen Rui showed a look of realization and suddenly added, "Just like … you?"
Ze Hongen raised his eyebrows and his tone became cold. "You seem to lack the proper reverence for me. Let me warn you, appreciation does not mean connivance. You only have two paths to take, join the Church or die."
Finally showing his true ferocious face? Chen Rui secretly sneered and shrugged. "Lord Ze Hongen, I did not say that I will not join. I just find it strange that you can become a Holy Disciple without the Body of Light Blessing … It seems that the loss of Snow Dallet has made our Lord God of Light somewhat 'hungry' … "
"How dare you! You dare to blaspheme God! " Ze Hongen's eyes flashed and his oppressive aura swelled again. "That Snow Dallet … Where did you hear the rumor from?"
"So it was a rumor?" Chen Rui did not panic. "I am now thinking about one thing. What is the main body of the projection? To be able to be called a top secret of the Church of Light, could it be something from the Temple of Light at the peak of the Holy Mountain? It should be that I touched the power of that thing when I received the projection, so I had to trouble a four-winged angel like you to descend. "
Ze Hongen was slightly shocked and immediately waved his hands to seal the surrounding space. He shouted, "Who are you?"
"I still want to ask who you are, angel? Human? Or … one of the true blasphemers who steal the faith of God? "
These words caused Ze Hongen's expression to change. He did not expect to meet such a strange person after spending so much effort to use a secret technique to reach this projection space!
He was about to make a move to capture him when he suddenly saw light.
The intense blue light was so resplendent and dazzling that even the entire starry sky that was originally suppressed by his aura started to sparkle.
Feeling the terrifying aura coming towards him, Ze Hongen was frightened and moved. A bad feeling welled up in his heart. He did not care much and pointed at the center of the resplendent blue light. "Sword of Judgement!"
A ray of white light sped over like a sharp sword. The starry light along the way was inconceivably sliced apart.
However, when the white light approached the resplendent blue light, it seemed to encounter some terrifying pressure and was unable to advance. Ze Hongen waved his hand and the white light returned to his hand. It was a huge silver sword. The four-winged angel's expression had already become incomparably grave.
Old Dean Carlisle and the others in front of the magic mirror were also stunned. That dazzling blue light that was like the sun actually had the power to contend against the four-winged angel Ze Hongen!
The most shocked was Rambis in the small star tower below. Even though Ze Hongen had sealed the space and she could no longer hear the conversation between the two, she could still recognize that incomparably resplendent blue light with a single glance. She finally understood who the person who had continuously caused shock was.
