"Lord Kosse, Lord Kosse!" A white priest near Kosse suddenly shrieked.
"His Lordship is dead, Lord Kosse is dead!" Another Temple Knight cried out involuntarily. His cry was so loud that it spread far and wide.
Sacred knight Blount, who had a mouthful of fresh blood stuck in his throat, couldn't hold it in any longer after hearing this. He immediately spurted out the blood he had been suppressing. The originally shiny golden armor on Blount's body was now like a tortoise's shell, full of cracks. It looked like it had been heavily injured in the previous attack.
"Calm down, everyone calm down. Quickly hold 'Revelation' properly!" Blount shouted from afar.
Streaks of blood-red sword rays whizzed down like a rain of arrows. The remaining thick blood cloud that had been shrouding Han Shuo's body was entangled by the streaks of sword rays, increasing the might of the streaks of blood rays and turning them into lethal weapons to reap the lives of the Church of Light's followers below.
Miserable howls rose and fell. Under the rain of streaks of blood rays, more than half of the Church of Light's followers were instantly killed or injured. Each and every one of them had their stomachs cut open. Even the sturdy armor worn by the Temple Knights couldn't withstand the piercing of the streaks of blood rays, causing them to fall into pools of blood one after another.
Blount yelled as he pulled his body out from the ground. He saw that a White Priest had already obtained the divine weapon of the Church of Light, 'Revelation'. The White Priest brandished the golden spear in his hand and blocked a blood ray that was shooting at his back. Blount's eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Han Shuo who was standing tall in the sky. Boundless hatred filled his heart.
When the rain of blood rays and arrows finally subsided, there were only thirty or so followers of the Church of Light left around Blount. This operation against the Lancelot Empire could be considered a complete failure. Even the person in charge of the Church of Light in the Lancelot Empire, Red Archbishop Kosse, had been killed on the spot. The losses were far greater than Blount had imagined.
The thick blood clouds around Han Shuo, who was standing tall in the sky, had already disappeared. Han Shuo, whose eyes were red and his expression was ferocious, had actually returned to normal. At this moment, he looked down at the devastation below with a cold expression and did not take any action.
In Han Shuo's hand, there was a crimson weapon with a scarlet edge. The bright red color came from the inside of the weapon's hilt, as if it had been soaked in blood for millions of years. A towering killing intent spread out from the weapon, giving people a feeling of fear.
"Blount, you didn't expect this, did you? Hehe, this is the price your Radiant Church should pay. From the beginning to the end, it was your Radiant Church that attacked me like a mad dog. I was only defending myself. " Han Shuo sneered at Blount and continued, "However, from today onwards, I will no longer passively wait for your attacks. I will destroy all the forces of the Church of Light one by one. However, you won't be able to see it."
"Evil heretic, the God Of Light will not allow you to exist on this plane. I guarantee that you will die very soon." Blount looked up at Han Shuo, who was standing tall in the sky, and said through clenched teeth.
Han Shuo shook his head with a mocking smile. He raised the Demonslayer Edge and shot towards Blount, as if he wanted to behead Blount on the spot.
However, before Han Shuo could approach Blount, Blount had already arrived in front of the disciple who had 'Revelation' at lightning speed. Blount grabbed the divine weapon 'Revelation' with one hand. The golden armor on his body suddenly burst with dazzling golden light. A wave of divine energy enveloped Blount and brought him soaring into the sky, shooting towards the distant horizon like a streak of golden light.
"He escaped, that sacred knight actually escaped!" Cecilia, who was watching from afar through a crystal ball, cried out in disbelief.
"Blount is injured, and his injuries are not light. It seems that Brian will leave him with an unforgettable impression for the rest of his life." Sacred swordmaster Caroline said with certainty.
"In the Church of Light, it is impossible for an ordinary person to keep a sacred knight of Blount's level. This is because the Church of Light will never allow them to be lost. If Blount wanted to leave, he could have left from the beginning. However, he had been trying to protect Kosse and those believers, and was confident that he could stop Brian. That was why he had delayed until now.
Unfortunately, he was still unable to stop Brian and even sustained serious injuries in the end. However, from today onwards, the enmity between our Lancelot Empire and the Church of Light has been forged. It seems that there will be more troublesome matters in the future. The strongest empire in the entire Profound Continent is the Oden Empire. The Church of Light has an enormous influence in the Oden Empire. This time, we might have to face the threat of the Oden Empire. "Sabakas sighed softly, appearing to be somewhat worried about the future of the Lancelot Empire.
"Hehe, that's hard to say. Madam Grace has prophesied that as long as Brian is in the Lancelot Empire, our empire will prosper for a long time. The current trajectory is playing out according to Madam Grace's prophecy. Look at the current situation of the empire, isn't it all because of Brian's existence that a great change has occurred?
Perhaps Brian will be like the demigod Ayermike Cotton, and can bring prosperity to the Lancelot Empire for hundreds of years. Hehe, that's hard to say. I'm rather optimistic about him. In addition, the Oden Empire is very far from our Lancelot Empire. I don't believe that they can attack our Lancelot Empire from so far away. "Sacred swordmaster Caroline seemed to be in a good mood as he smiled and said to Sabakas.
"What's there to be afraid of? So what if the army of the Oden Empire comes? Hmph, I really want to meet the strongest army in the continent and see what's so powerful about them! " Firenze, this war maniac, was instead somewhat eager to give it a try. It was obvious that he wished for the whole world to be in chaos.
After hearing Caroline and Firenze's words, Sabakas recalled that the Oden Empire was indeed thousands of miles away from the Lancelot Empire and heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Then, he moved his fingers and the crystal ball in his hand rotated for a while. It slowly lost its luster and the scene inside also disappeared.
At this moment, Han Shuo was looking in the direction that Blount escaped in astonishment, but he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Contrary to what Blount had imagined, the current Han Shuo was only strong on the outside but weak on the inside. Previously, Han Shuo's strength was all due to the thick layer of blood cloud and the negative energy within the Demonslayer Edge. Now, the thick blood cloud that had always been lingering around Han Shuo's body had completely disappeared. Even the negative energy within the Demonslayer Edge had started to go into hibernation.
Therefore, the current Han Shuo, who was powerless, only possessed the strength that he had when he launched a sneak attack on Blount. If Blount hadn't escaped in fear and calmed down to fight Han Shuo to the death, he might not have been defeated by Han Shuo.
It was a pity that Han Shuo's previous performance was too strong. After Blount was injured, his confidence was shaken and he didn't even care about the remaining followers. He used his divine energy to activate the miraculous effect of the armor and quickly fled the battlefield.
After Blount left, Han Shuo heaved a sigh of relief. He couldn't help but cast his gaze on the remaining members of the Church of Light who were in despair. After seeing Kosse killed and Blount fleeing, and being frightened by Han Shuo's previous performance, these people's faces were ashen. Under Han Shuo's gaze, they were all in despair.
After experiencing the earth elite zombie's injury, Han Shuo no longer had any mercy towards the Church of Light. He understood that the hatred between him and the Church of Light would never end until one of them was dead. Only when the Church of Light completely disappeared from the continent would he be able to live a peaceful life. When dealing with such fanatical and bigoted followers, the only way was to kill them all.
After Blount's departure, the remaining people were really just some shrimp soldiers. Given Han Shuo's true strength, he could easily deal with them. Looking at the followers of the Church of Light below him with a sinister smile, Han Shuo was about to say something when a white priest of the Church of Light suddenly started singing praises of the God Of Light.
After the white priest finished singing, he cried out in grief, "The God Of Light will definitely purify our souls and avenge our humiliation today."
Then, under Han Shuo's gaze, starting from this white priest, the remaining members of the Church of Light committed suicide one after the other.
"What a bunch of people with sh * t in their brains. Religious beliefs are really harmful!" Han Shuo couldn't help but lament as he watched the followers of the Church of Light commit suicide one after another in front of him, knowing that they couldn't escape with their lives.
Raising his head to look at the sky, Han Shuo could sense the soaring killing intent that enveloped the entire Ossen City. Although Han Shuo had already absorbed a portion of it, the killing intent that had yet to dissipate was still very dense. This made Han Shuo feel extremely refreshed.
Currently, the two types of energy within Han Shuo's Demonslayer Edge had miraculously returned to normal under the release of his demonic energy. The energy that had been purified had turned into pure negative energy and flowed into the Demonslayer Edge like a trickle of water. The Demonslayer Edge had once again returned to its natural state, becoming one with Han Shuo's mind.
Within Han Shuo's body, the energy that he had previously absorbed using the giant vortex had already converged into the demon infant. It was just that it hadn't been completely absorbed yet. But overall, after releasing the chaotic energy, Han Shuo was now completely relaxed. Not only did he not have to worry about losing his mind, he also didn't have to worry about the Demonslayer Edge and his body becoming chaotic again.
Once his mind became clear, Han Shuo immediately saw the situation clearly through the mystical demons. The defeat of Ashburn and the others in the northern city district was already very obvious. Even Ashburn and eldest prince Charles could clearly see it and currently had plans to retreat.
Under Firenze's command and the cooperation of the other two princes, the other regions of Ossen City that were further away had similarly achieved victory. It seemed that Ashburn and Charles's sudden coup this time could be considered a complete failure.
A mystical demon roamed one round around the castle. Han Shuo discovered that the people there were gathered together and discussing spiritedly. The target of their discussion was none other than him. Han Shuo didn't know whether to laugh or cry because from their discussion, Han Shuo discovered that his status had suddenly risen at an astonishing rate.
On top of the clocktower, Bollands's body was trembling incessantly, as though he was having an epileptic fit. Bollands's face was flushed red, as though his body was no longer under his control. His eyes were filled with a crazed killing intent.
Han Shuo stared blankly for a moment before coming back to his senses. He inwardly cursed Bollands for his recklessness and flew towards Bollands at high speed.
A blood-red rainbow streaked across the sky. With a loud whistling sound, Han Shuo arrived in front of Bollands. He stretched out his left hand and pressed against Bollands's chest. With a sudden push, Bollands, who was trembling as though having an epileptic fit, suddenly returned to normal.
"Cough, cough …"
Like a drowning man who was suddenly able to breathe again, Bollands's face was flushed red as he coughed violently. The killing intent in his eyes slowly faded.
His left hand once again pressed against Bollands's back. Without waiting for Bollands to react, Han Shuo extracted a portion of the chaotic killing intent in Bollands's body and patted Bollands's back with his large hand.
Bollands let out a muffled groan and fell to the ground. Then, his eyes finally returned to normal. He knelt at Han Shuo's feet with a pale face and said, "Senior Brother, thank you!"
Han Shuo coldly snorted and said angrily, "I told you before I left that your body definitely can't withstand too much killing intent. I told you to stop the internal vortex in your body when you felt it was about right, but you just didn't listen. If I hadn't discovered it in time, I'm afraid your body would have exploded in a moment."
"I'm sorry, Senior Brother. I was wrong!" Bollands was terrified as he apologized. He hurriedly said, "I was too greedy. I never thought that I could absorb this kind of killing intent to increase my strength. This time, I finally came across this opportunity with great difficulty. I really couldn't suppress the excitement. I kept saying that I would let go after absorbing a little more, but I didn't want to stop. By the time I felt like my body was about to explode, my body was no longer listening to me."
The temptation of this sudden increase in strength was something that Bollands couldn't resist. Especially since this was the first time Bollands had absorbed this kind of energy. The flames of greed couldn't be extinguished, which led to this result.
"Forget it, it's my fault for not reminding you. I saw that you are already old and felt that you should have the ability to control yourself. Sigh, you must remember, our martial techniques are different from Dou Qi training. Our martial techniques have great requirements on the strength of the body. Before your body can withstand it, you must not rashly absorb energy that you can't handle." Han Shuo sighed.
"Senior Brother, I know I was wrong. From now on, I won't be so rash anymore." Bollands truly recognized his own recklessness. He knelt in front of Han Shuo and accepted his mistake.
