After nightfall, several places in Saint Light City were set ablaze at the same time, and half of the sky was dyed red. Just as the Knights of Light were urgently mobilizing their troops, a silent figure had already stealthily moved in the direction of the Holy Mountain.
With Chen Rui's speed and [Stealth] skill, he had successfully broken through several checkpoints under the cover of the night. However, the closer he was to the Holy Mountain, the stronger a feeling was.
The suppression of the law.
When Chen Rui came here last time, he was only at the Demon Overlord level. He had not really understood the law, so he did not have this feeling. Now that he was a super powerhouse who had mastered the real law, he could clearly feel the suppression of the power of the law in this Holy Mountain. If he fought here, the power of the law would be greatly suppressed. In other words, the super powerhouse could not exert his strongest combat power.
The source of this suppression might be the power of faith, or the peak of the Holy Mountain …
At this point, it was impossible to retreat. Moreover, when he was only at the Demon Overlord level, he once sneaked into the Snow Peak Platform alone, fought the high-level powerhouses of the church, and stole 3 Snow Dallet Trees. Now that his strength was far better than that day, what was there to be afraid of?
Even without the big threat of Ben Hong, I will break into this Holy Mountain just for Tiffany and the Breeze Shadow Boots!
Chen Rui felt heroic in his heart, and he continued to sneak forward. Soon, he arrived at the entrance of the stairs at the foot of the Holy Mountain.
It was still the familiar wide stairs. Whether it was the number of guards or the strength of the magic circle, it was completely different from before. It could be said that every step was frightening.
The guards on the Sacred Mountain were well-trained and extremely disciplined. While the Sacred Light City below was ablaze with flames and chaos, the guards on the Sacred Mountain remained calm as if nothing had happened. They didn't even glance at the commotion.
Chen Rui had already noticed that the biggest difference between the magic circle of the Holy Mountain and the one at the foot of the mountain was that it was infused with rich faith power, and it was interconnected. Pulling one hair would affect the whole body, including these guards. They were all elements of the magic circle. Once the guards were abnormal, the entire magic circle would sense it. It was just like every maid in the Bloody Empire's Teris residence was a part of the magic circle. It was just that the magic circle of Teris' residence was only a drop in the bucket compared to the behemoth Holy Mountain.
Not only that, but the magic array also severely interfered with space. It was practically impossible to cast Skills like Spatial Movement here.
"Lord Ben Hong, I believe you have also sensed how difficult it is to deal with these magic arrays. From the looks of it, it will be impossible to reach the Sacred Mountain without alerting the guards."
"Then let's force our way through. Since we've come all the way here, we naturally won't return empty-handed." Ben Hong smiled. "These ants are not worth mentioning at all. The only ones I'm worried about are Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael. But in a land of faith like this, the three of them should usually be in a state of eternal slumber, absorbing and digesting the power of faith. At most, they'll send out a clone. Since we can only force our way through this time, then let's end this battle quickly and rush straight to the [Radiant Palace] with all our strength. The possibility of obtaining the Book of Creation on this trip is very small, but our goal is not to seize the Book of Creation, but to absorb the Origin of Creation. As long as we grasp the time well, entering the [Radiant Palace] to obtain the Origin of Creation shouldn't be a problem. "
Chen Rui secretly sneered. Ben Hong made it sound easy, but with the strength of his [Peak Kingdom], it was very likely that he would end up in ashes if he forced his way through the enemy's base camp where the three supreme angels were in slumber. Even if it was just a clone of the three angels, he was definitely not a match for them.
Chen Rui 'face revealed a look of hesitation. In fact, Tiffany and the Breeze Shadow Boots were not far away. Even without Ben Hong by his side, he would never leave just like that. But now was the time when he was the most valuable to Ben Hong, and it was also the best time to put forward his conditions.
"Don't you want to get the Breeze Shadow Boots? This is the best opportunity. With me around, you can definitely get what you want. Here are the last five pseudo-god-level soul brands. I'll give them to you. As long as I get the Origin of Creation from the Book of Creation, I'll have a way to take you away. "
"Thank you, sir!" Chen Rui got another five pseudo-god-level soul brands. He knew that his' hesitation 'had worked, so he immediately stopped while he was ahead. He gritted his teeth, and the power of the [Peak Kingdom] level suddenly surged. "Alright, I'll give up this life and go with you, sir!"
The knights guarding on both sides of the stairs suddenly showed vigilance, because they had already sensed that someone had stepped into the periphery of the magic formation. Then, the next sense was produced. The magic formation was broken!
In just two thoughts, the magic formation at the entrance of the Holy Mountain was forcibly broken. It could be seen how fast it was!
Then, there were occasional electric sparks or flashes of light on the path up the mountain. The guards only sensed that the magic formation had collapsed, but they didn't even see the figure of the person who came.
There was a small square in front. After this square, the stone steps behind were divided into three paths, which led to the three main peaks of the Holy Mountain of Light.
At the core of these three main peaks were three shrines, namely the Temple of God Seal of Pope Fandis, the Temple of Stars of Patriarch Pusmir, and the Temple of Holy Favor of Saintess Eudora. The Snow Dallet was on the Snow Peak Platform on the east side of the God Seal Peak. The highest peak of the Holy Mountain did not belong to the three main peaks, but was an independent existence. To go up from the God Seal Peak, it was the forbidden area of the Church of Light. Only the Pope and the two major bishops could enter.
The square was brightly lit. The Temple Master of the Cang Thunder Temple, the Paladin Captain Pasari, nicknamed "Radiant Sword Saint", was wearing a white full-body armor and holding the double-edged sword "Gale". He was ready for battle, surrounded by a large number of Temple Knights.
He had already learned that someone had set fire to Holy Light City. He had just received the alarm from the foot of the mountain and immediately noticed that someone had entered the magic formation in this area. He was secretly frightened — the speed of the person was beyond imagination. The magic formation along the way was actually regarded as nothing and directly broke through. Pasari secretly thought that if it was him, he would never be able to do this, even if he had successfully broken through to the Nationalization last year.
"Boom!" There was a flash of golden lightning in front of them, and a figure wrapped in ice appeared in their line of sight. The figure shook slightly, and the ice on its body that was caused by the magic array suddenly broke apart, and it shot towards Passari.
Pasari felt the terrible power of the ice tearing through the air. The knights behind him would definitely not be able to resist it. In an instant, a strong flame steamed around his body. He inserted the huge sword in his hand into the ground, and the flame instantly turned into countless crisscrossed translucent light shields, blocking in front of him.
The ice hit the light shields, and there were countless cracks on the light shields, but the ice also melted without a trace. Just when the Temple Knights breathed a sigh of relief, Pasari's face changed. He saw a huge "X" suddenly appeared on the overlapping light shields, as if it was cut by some terrible sharp weapon.
In the next second, all the light shields collapsed without a trace.
Pasari's face had become extremely dignified. This was his strongest defensive sword technique, called "Flawless". After breaking through to the Nationalization, it integrated the power of law and became more invulnerable, but it was easily defeated by the opponent!
"Army Breaker!" Pasari, who had experienced hundreds of battles, used his strongest sword technique without hesitation. A white light rushed toward the incoming enemy, and wherever it passed, the solid ground protected by the boundary cracked and shattered.
This sword was actually equivalent to the essence of countless swords, and it deeply contained the principle of turning complexity into simplicity. However, the sharp sword aura containing the power of the Kingdom slowed down the moment it was released, as if it encountered countless ripples with huge resistance. Then, as if it was lashed by a whip, the invincible sword aura dissipated into particles with a bang.
The strongest defense and attack was instantly … Pasari was shocked. Before he could make the next move, he suddenly trembled, and his whole body suddenly froze on the spot, and the figure had disappeared.
"Sir Pasari!"
The Temple Knights behind him realized that something was wrong. They had just moved their feet when Pasari's armor cracked and shattered into countless pieces, and his whole body collapsed. Although he was still breathing, he had completely lost his battle prowess.
Until he fell, Pasari's eyes were still filled with disbelief. With just two simple attacks, his two strongest moves had been completely defeated, and the actual power that the opponent had displayed was not much stronger than his!
In fact, Pasari did not know that Chen Rui had personally experienced these two moves of his back then. Chen Rui's current strength was already at the peak of the Kingdom, and his highest battle prowess under the Ultimate Crimson Star Transformation had reached the Demigod level. Be it laws, Kingdom, or control of power, Chen Rui was far above him. Therefore, it was not surprising that Chen Rui had been instantly killed when they had the same level of power.
It was just like how the battle prowess of a pseudo-deity Demigod far surpassed that of an ordinary Demigod.
If Chen Rui had not wanted to save time and energy, Pasari would have been a corpse by now.
When it came to Pasari, the Power of Faith in the magic formation was getting stronger, and for Chen Rui, the resistance was even greater.
In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived at the fork in the road.
When he was heading to the Divine Seal Peak, Chen Rui felt that the Ring of Blood Fury, which had originally been extremely dense, had started to dim. It seemed that Tiffany was not at the Divine Seal Peak, but at the Divine Seal Peak or the Star Peak.
However, judging from the situation today, it was impossible to take Tiffany away. Moreover, she was possessed by Ben Hong, so he could only head straight for the Divine Seal Peak.
Chen Rui had seen the giant statue of Raphael at the square of the Divine Seal Peak before. It could be said to be magnificent, but compared to Michael at the Divine Seal Peak, Raphael's statue was nothing. This was because the entire Divine Seal Peak was an incomparably huge statue.
Although Michael's statue was far less detailed than Raphael's, its aura was more majestic. It was as if a giant with twelve wings was looking down at all living creatures in the sky, giving people a feeling of absolute reverence and fear.
