Dumb first gathered all his Vital Qi into the golden body in his dantian. Under the circulation of energy, Dumb adjusted his state to the best. He had already decided that even if his heart was blown up by the Vital Qi and he died, he would never back down. Under the control of his mind, the golden liquid Vital Qi condensed into the shape of a sharp cone outside his heart. Dumb clenched his teeth and urged the surging energy to pierce into the depths of his heart meridian. The pain that was several times more intense than before made Dumb's whole body spasm violently, and he spat out a few mouthfuls of blood. However, he still did not give up on the impact on his heart meridian. He used his mind to control the Vital Qi and kept rushing forward. Blood spurted out one mouthful after another. Dumb knew that he could not hold on any longer. His consciousness gradually blurred, and he already felt that he could not hold on any longer.
Just when he no longer had the strength to rush forward, a warm and gentle energy suddenly appeared. It flowed up his right forearm and instantly rushed into his heart meridian. The blocked blood vessels in his heart meridian suddenly expanded under the impact of this energy. Dumb's Vital Qi took this opportunity to pass through and finally communicated with the bridge between heaven and earth. Dumb's whole body shook violently a few times, and he gradually calmed down. All the pain suddenly disappeared, and the power that he had lost was restored to his body. Feeling the warm energy that was constantly comforting his soul, Dumb's heart was filled with grief, because he knew that this was the warm energy that came from Goriqi's wish. It was Teacher Goriqi's soul that saved him in the crisis. Dumb lay flat on the ground and murmured, "Teacher, you're the best to me! Teacher … "Tears fell. Dumb slowly sat up. Although most of his power had been restored, his body was still very weak.
After opening his eyes, Dumb saw his body again after more than ten days. He found that he had completely turned into a clay man, and the black robe on his body had completely turned khaki. It had long been ruined, and some parts of it had even revealed the Giant Spirit Serpent Armor inside. Dumb moved his extremely stiff limbs, and his blood circulation increased slightly, gradually allowing his numb body to regain consciousness.
"Master Goric, Uncle Owen, Grandmaster, I can't die for you." I haven't finished the mission you gave me. I can't die now. " Drawing a line in the air, he opened up his own Space Enchantment and took out the fruit that he and Xuanyue had picked on the way to the Puyan people. Although there was no air in the Space Enchantment, the fruit was still a little rotten because of its own nature. However, Dumb continued to stuff the fruits into his mouth and gulped them down. He needed nourishment, a large amount of nourishment to recover his body. There were nineteen fruits in total. In a short while, he had eaten them all. Dumb tore off his black robe and took a deep breath. He entered a state of cultivation. He urged the vital energy in his Dantian to circulate. A faint white light seeped out of his body as his consciousness sank into his body. Now, he'd already thrown everything to the back of his mind, and he was wholeheartedly cultivating.
Two days later, a clear and loud roar rang out in the open land. The roar was like the surging waves of a bay. The surrounding birds and beasts were frightened by the roar and quickly avoided it. This roar was made by Dumb. After two days of cultivation, his state had recovered to its peak. His whole body was filled with surging vital energy. He opened his eyes, and two solid Cold Light shot out. Dumb floated up from where he was. Under the sunlight, the Giant Spirit Snake Armor on his body shone brightly. Dumb raised his clenched right fist in front of his eyes and said coldly, "From today on, I, Dumb, will no longer be involved in relationships. What I want to do is to avenge Uncle Police and fulfill Grandmaster's wish. Assassin's Guild, just you wait. The Grim Reaper will come to you and bring you the fear of death. " Just like Xuanyue in the Elf Forest, Dumb's heart was completely frozen. In his mind, he only had the thought of revenge. He floated up, identified the direction, and flew towards the west.
Holy Holy Hall. In the Great Hall of Brilliance, the solemn atmosphere made everyone feel suffocated. Pope stood in the center of the Great Hall of Brilliance, emitting a cold aura from his body. Red Priest Xuan Ye, Presiding Judge Xuan Yuan, Vice Presiding Judge Ba Bylon, and all the people who returned from the Sky Yuan Clan lowered their heads. Only Xuanyue, who had a cold expression on her face, remained calm. As soon as they returned to the Holy Hall, they immediately reported the situation to Pope. At this moment, they were all waiting anxiously.
Pope's gaze swept across all the people who returned, and his emotionless voice sounded, "More than a thousand people went, and only you came back? It seems that the dark forces are really powerful! Presiding Judge Xuan Yuan, Red Priest Xuan Ye, Vice Presiding Judge Ba Bylon, how did you command them? More than a thousand elites of the Holy Hall came back, but only 60 people came back. No matter how powerful the enemy is, if you command them well, with the powerful force you brought, you would have had a chance to break out of the encirclement. If Priest Na Yen didn't sacrifice himself, I'm afraid none of you would have come back. "Pope's anger had reached its peak. His usually calm face was a little twisted, and even his words were a little incoherent. Obviously, he was really angry. "Xuan Ye, you were the main commander of this operation, and it was also you who caused us to fall into the trap of the Wing Men Tribe. Tell me, how should I punish you?"
Xuan Ye knelt down silently, "Lord Pope, this failure was caused by my poor command. I, Xuan Ye, am willing to accept any punishment. "
Xuan Yuan frowned slightly. Pope said, "This time, I was the main commander of the extermination of the Dark Demon Tribe, and I have an unshirkable responsibility. Lord Pope, please punish me as well. However, Lord Pope, now that the dark forces are so rampant, we need people. I hope you won't blame Priest Xuan Ye too much. I am willing to accept his punishment. "
Xuan Ye was shocked. He never thought that his uncle would accept the punishment for him. It was the first time that he felt family from his uncle Xuan Yuan. Glancing at Xuan Yuan gratefully, Pope said, "Lord Pope, this has nothing to do with the presiding judge. It was my fault that caused us to lose everything. Please punish me."
Pope looked coldly at Xuan Yuan and Xuan Ye, and said lightly, "You don't have to say anything. I know what to do. The Holy Hall has its rules, and God will not forgive sinners. Xuan Ye, you have made such a big mistake. I should have taken your life as a sacrifice to the souls of the warriors, but I will give you a chance to redeem yourself. From now on, Xuan Ye will be demoted from a Red Priest to a White Priest, and he will be deprived of the right to inherit the position of Pope. "
Xuan Yuan's body trembled, and he cried out involuntarily, "Your Holiness, you can demote Xuan Ye to a White Priest, but you can't deprive him of the right to inherit the position of Pontiff!" Being deprived of the right to inherit the position of Pontiff meant that the person who was deprived of the right to inherit the position of Pontiff forever. Even if Xuan Ye was a Red Priest, he would not be able to do that. That was why Xuan Yuan was so worried. Theoretically, everyone in the Holy Hall had the right to inherit the position of Pope. However, once the Pope deprived him of this right, his position in the Holy Hall would be greatly reduced.
The Pope turned his gaze to Xuan Yuan and said, "I won't change my mind once I've decided on something. Xuan Ye did not handle things clearly, and he could not think calmly when carrying out a difficult task. He is no longer qualified to inherit the position of Pope. I have already given him a very lenient punishment. Xuan Yuan, as the Presiding Judge, although you are not the direct commander, you did not correct Xuan Ye's mistake in time, and you cannot be exempted from the punishment. I announce that from today, you will be demoted to a Vice Presiding Judge. Ba Bylon is not the direct commander, so he is exempted from the punishment. The rest of the people who returned fought bravely, and under the command of Xuan Ye, they were still able to return to the Holy Hall. Everyone will be promoted one level. This is my final decision, and it will not be changed. "
Xuan Yuan still wanted to say something, but he was stopped by Xuan Ye. Xuan Ye said respectfully, "Thank you, Lord Pope, for the lenient punishment." He was not a person who longed for power and position. This time, it was indeed because of him that such a big loss was caused. Naturally, he would not argue about it.
Pope said in a deep voice, "Pass the special order of the Holy Hall. All the Offering Halls scattered across the continent are to monitor and look for the movement of the dark forces at the same time. At the same time, gather all the priests, judges, and Holy Knights of the Holy Hall and reorganize. Three days later, we will go to the Sky Yuan Clan to look for the Dark Race. Also, send letters to all the countries, asking them to cooperate in the investigation of the dark forces. " Since the Holy Hall had suffered such a great blow, he had made up his mind to eliminate the Dark Race at all costs.
"Lord Pope, I have something to say." Xuanyue's cold voice suddenly appeared in the Bright Hall. Pope was dazed for a second. He looked at Xuanyue and said, "Go ahead."
Xuanyue said calmly, "When the Holy Hall is facing such a crisis, Lord Pope, please allow me to go with the army of the Holy Hall to eliminate the Dark Race. At the same time, I hope to take over Na Yan's position and become the new Red Priest. I believe that I have the power to do so. "
Pope frowned and said, "You want to be a Red Priest? A Red Priest not only needs to have a profound cultivation, but also a lot of qualities. "Xuanyue was just an ordinary goddess in the Holy Hall. She had no position. Although Pope hoped that his granddaughter could make a name for herself, he could not use his power to make Xuanyue skip a few ranks.
Xuanyue gazed at Pope and said, "Lord Pope, now that the Holy Hall is facing a crisis, I hope you can temporarily change the old rules. I want to be a Red Priest because I want to help you command the army of the Holy Hall to fight against the Dark Race. I believe that I have the power to do so. Please approve my request. "
Pope suddenly felt that his granddaughter seemed to have changed. She was completely different from before. From her beautiful eyes, there was not a single trace of emotion. There was only a firm conviction. However, a Red Priest was a high position in the Holy Hall. Although Xuanyue was his granddaughter, he could not agree to it rashly. He looked at the other two Red Priests and said, "What do you think?"
Mang Xiu said respectfully, "Lord Pope, Xuanyue is right. We need people now. As long as she is capable enough, I will not object." On the other side, the Red-Robed Priest of the Feathered Order nodded and said, "I agree with Priest Mang Xiu. As long as Mystic Moon can display abilities that are not weaker than the Red-Robed Priest, she can definitely be qualified for this position. "Yes."
Pope nodded and said, "A Red Priest is a matter of life and death for the Holy Hall. It cannot be arbitrarily decided. How about this, Xuanyue, as long as you can prove your strength, I can let you be a Red Priest temporarily. I will consider your promotion according to your contribution to the Holy Hall. Xuan Ye, Xuan Yuan, you can leave now. Three days later, we will depart for the Sky Clan. Priests Mang Xiu and Yu Jian, please prepare outside the Great Hall of Light. An hour later, we will inspect Xuanyue. I order all the clergymen of the Holy Hall to participate in the inspection and supervise together. "
Mang Xiu and Yu Jian bowed and left. Xuan Ye and Xuan Yuan also led the group of people out of the Great Hall of Light. Only Pope and Xuanyue were left in the hall. Pope looked at Xuanyue and said, "Why don't you go and prepare? Are you so sure?"
Xuanyue said lightly, "I don't go and prepare because I know you have something to say. Besides, I am confident that I can reach the level of a Red Priest. Why do I need to prepare? "
Pope's tense face relaxed. He sighed and walked in front of Xuanyue. Looking at his granddaughter's beautiful face, he said, "Yue, what's wrong? Didn't you go to find Dumb? Why did you come back so soon? Didn't you find him? "Xuanyue said," I found him. But the Puyan people, Prophet Prín told us that the Holy Hall is in trouble in the Elven Forest. That's why I rushed there and met up with my father and the others. We returned to the Holy Hall together. "
Pope said, "What about Dumb? He didn't come back with you? "
Xuanyue's eyes flashed a trace of desolation. She said indifferently, "He left. He said he left forever and won't come back."
The Pope was shocked and said, "Gone? What happened between you two? "
Xuanyue said, "I don't want to talk about those things anymore. If you want to know, go ask Priest Xuan Ye or Presiding Judge Xuan Yuan. They will tell you the answer. I'm sorry, Lord Pope, I have to prepare for the test. I'll take my leave first. "She turned and walked out of the Great Hall of Light.
Pope said, "Wait a minute. I don't need to ask you about this. But you have to tell me, was the rain of light caused by Dumb? "
Xuanyue's body trembled. She suddenly recalled the day when she was with Dumb by the river. She felt a sharp pain in her heart. She nodded silently and walked out of the Great Hall of Light.
Pope looked at Xuanyue's disappearing figure and murmured, "It's them. It's really them. I can finally be sure that they are the Saviors."
Xuanyue walked out of the Great Hall. She took a deep breath of the familiar air of the Holy Hall and slowly walked back to her home. Before she entered the house, she heard her mother's painful cry. A feeling of depression spread all over her body. Xuanyue pushed the door and entered. She saw her father Xuan Ye sitting on the side, while her mother was crying on the bed. Obviously, she already knew about her grandfather Na Yen's death.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Nasha raised her head. When she saw her daughter, her grief was slightly relieved. Xuanyue walked to Nasha's side and whispered, "Mom, if you don't die, you can't come back to life. Don't be sad. Grandfather won't die in vain. I will definitely avenge him. "
Nasha held her daughter in her arms. Her father had died. How could she not be sad? Although Na Yen had always been very strict with her, she knew that everything her father did was for her own good. Not to mention that there was still the blood is thicker than water. Xuanyue felt her mother's grief. She slowly injected the light of tranquility into her body, calming the grief in her mother's heart. Time passed minute by minute. Xuan Ye sighed and said, "Yue, you should go to the Great Hall of Light to take the test."
After crying for a full hour, Nasha's grief weakened a little. Hearing Xuan Ye's words, she looked at her daughter in shock. "Yue, what test are you going to take?"
Xuanyue leaned against her mother. "Mom, grandfather is a red-robed priest. Now that he has passed away, how can I let his position fall into the hands of others? I want to take over grandfather's position and become a new red-robed priest. Lord Pope has already promised me that as long as I can fight to a draw with one of the two red-robed priests, Mang Xiu and Yu Jian, he will let me temporarily take over this position. "
Nasha was shocked. "What? You want to compete with two red-robed priests? How can that be? Yue, you must know that in the Holy Hall's test, life and death are up to fate. "
Xuanyue's beautiful eyes revealed a strong self-confidence. She said indifferently, "Mom, don't worry. I know what I'm doing, I won't hurt the two red-robed priests. I'll go first. " With that, without waiting for Nasha to stop her, she teleported out of the room. Nasha looked at her daughter disappear into thin air. Her delicate body couldn't help but tremble. She looked at her husband and asked, "Yue, what happened to her? Why did she suddenly change into a different person? "
Xuan Ye sighed. "Don't worry, Yue's current strength is not below mine. She is qualified to be a red-robed priest. Sigh … Nasha, don't go. I'll go to the hall to look after Yue. It's better to be careful. "
Nasha shook her head. "No, I want to go. I've already lost my father. I don't want to lose my daughter as well. I want to go with you. "
When Xuanyue arrived at the Radiant Hall, there were already many priests and judges gathered there. The Holy Knights were stationed at the periphery of the Holy Hall. Without the Pope's order, they were not allowed to enter the inner mountain.
The red-robed priests Mang Xiu and Yu Jian stood at the entrance of the Radiant Hall. They were close friends with Na Yen. Na Yen was the oldest among the four red-robed priests and was deeply loved by them. His death made these two Red Priests in their seventies very sad. Today, when Xuanyue proposed to take over Na Yen's position, although they were surprised, they decided that as long as Xuanyue's cultivation was not too low, they would fulfill her wish. It could also be considered as doing something for the dead Na Yen. Nasha's worries were completely unnecessary. No matter the reason, Mang Xiu and Yu Jian would not harm Xuanyue.
Xuanyue walked in front of Mang Xiu and Yu Jian. She bowed and said, "Grandpas, hello. Can we start now?"
Mang Xiu smiled and said, "Yue, are you ready?"
Xuanyue nodded and said, "I wonder who will be the one to teach me?"
Mang Xiu and Yu Jian glanced at each other. Mang Xiu said, "I will." He used divine energy to transmit his voice far away. "Lord Pope has ordered that because of the appearance of the dark forces, Na Yen, the red-robed priest, sacrificed his life for the Holy Hall. In order to immediately fill the vacancy of the red-robed priest, we have decided to test the goddess Xuanyue. As long as she can fight me or Yu Jian to a draw, she will be promoted to a temporary red-robed priest. All the priests and judges present will supervise. "His voice spread far and wide. Everyone in front of the Radiant Hall could hear it clearly. The crowd was suddenly in an uproar. The little demon girl Xuanyue could be said to be known by everyone in the Holy Hall. Although everyone was very fond of this beautiful little girl, but no one believed that she could reach the level of a red-robed priest at the age of less than 20. For a moment, there was endless discussion.
Xuanyue acted as if she did not hear anything. She said to Mang Xiu, "Please."
Mang Xiu Xuanyue nodded and said, "Little girl, you have to be careful." With that, wrapped in white divine energy, she floated up and landed at the left side of the Radiant Hall.
Xuanyue's face did not have the slightest change. Golden flames surged out, wrapped around her body, and floated to the other side of the Radiant Hall.
Seeing the powerful divine aura emitted from Xuanyue, everyone was stunned. Including Mang Xiu and Yu Jian, no one would have thought that Xuanyue's cultivation of the divine light element had reached such a level. Mang Xiu's relaxed expression suddenly disappeared. He was very clear what this golden energy represented. What Xuanyue possessed was at least the strength of a white-robed priest.
At this time, Pope slowly walked out of the Radiant Hall. As soon as he appeared, all the priests and judges immediately bowed respectfully and shouted in unison, "Greetings, Your Excellency Pope."
Pope raised his hands and said, "For the Holy Hall, a red-robed priest is a very important position. Because of the sudden appearance of the dark forces, I will not rashly choose. I hope the followers of God can understand my decision. Alright, Mang Xiu, Xuanyue, you can start. For the sake of fairness, during the process of the test, you are not allowed to use any tools to increase your strength. "Others could not see the strength of Xuanyue, but how could he not know? When he saw Xuanyue in the Radiant Hall today, he already found that her strength had greatly increased. She was definitely not weaker than the level of a light magus. That was why he was at ease to let her participate in the test.
Xuanyue and Mang Xiu bowed to each other and chanted at the same time. Holy chanting sounded continuously in front of the Radiant Hall, and all the priests could not help but chant a prayer.
Xuanyue chanted, "Great God of Heaven! I beg you, lend me your endless divine power, let the light cover the earth, let the holy fill the world. " The golden light suddenly flourished, and Xuanyue's body was completely surrounded by the golden light. The golden light took the form of a cylinder and shot straight into the sky. In the crowd, Xuan Ye and Nasha saw their daughter's delicate body wrapped in the golden light and immediately felt relieved. What Xuanyue used was the seventh-level divine light magic – Divine Light Descent. To be able to use this seventh-level magic so quickly, her cultivation was definitely not lower than Mang Xiu's.
Mang Xiu was also shocked. Originally, he wanted to lose in the test, but after seeing Xuanyue use the Divine Light Descent, he could not help but give up on this idea. The white light surrounding his body gradually turned golden, and the same golden light pillar as Xuanyue's shot straight into the sky. The two stood in front of the Radiant Hall, constantly condensing the light elements in the air.
Xuanyue's eyes shone with a cold light. Both of her hands drew a beautiful arc on each side of her body, and her palms turned outwards. Divine energy suddenly gushed out, and the golden energy that originally shot straight into the sky changed direction under Xuanyue's will, and suddenly rushed towards Mang Xiu. Mang Xiu's eyes flashed, and a similar action appeared on his hands. Two golden light pillars suddenly shot out from the left and right sides of the Radiant Hall. Because the energy was from the same source, there was no violent explosion. The same golden light maintained in mid-air, pressing against the other party. Although the two golden energies were filled with divine aura, there were slight differences. The golden light pillar released by Xuanyue was slightly darker in color, and could be clearly distinguished in the air.
Although there were thousands of people gathered in front of the Radiant Hall, it was unusually calm. Who would not want to see a battle between magisters? The two golden lights, one dark and one light, suddenly collided in the air, constantly pushing against the energy released by the other party. In the same magic battle, it depended on whose magic cultivation was more profound. Only the party with a more profound cultivation would be able to obtain the final victory.
Divine chanting continuously sounded from the mouths of Xuanyue and Mang Xiu, and the two golden energy pillars continuously pressed against each other. No one could gain the upper hand. The huge energy aura formed a circle of invisible pressure, like a barrier, pushing the surrounding clergymen hundreds of meters away. In the process of the continuous light elements, Xuanyue's long blue hair was stirred up by the energy, and continuously danced in the golden light that enveloped her body. Her calm face was filled with holiness and majesty, and some of the observing clergymen had already called out the words "reincarnation of a goddess".
Xuan Ye looked at his daughter's gradually increasing energy, and his heart was greatly comforted. However, Nasha tightly held onto Xuan Ye's hand. Although Xuanyue was not at a disadvantage, she was still very nervous, afraid that Xuanyue would make a mistake. Xuan Ye said to Nasha using spiritual transmission, "Don't worry, since Yue can maintain a tie now, she will definitely not lose. Mang Xiu priest's cultivation level is similar to mine, as long as there are no accidents, Yue can at least guarantee a tie, and not be at a disadvantage. "
At this moment, there was a strange change in the field. Mang Xiu priest's folded arms suddenly opened up, and golden light shone in his eyes. He chanted loudly, "The first is the light of life, the second is the soul, the third is the light of salvation, the fourth is the heart of man, the fifth is the light of holiness, the sixth is the order of god, the seventh is the light of destruction, the eighth is the calamity of eternal life, the ninth is the light of death, and the tenth is the pain of heaven and earth. With the power of the gods as the guide, with the five lights and five perishing as the form, let it shine, the proud aura of heaven and earth, become the light of righteousness, and sweep away all terror and evil. " Mang Xiu's hands formed many strange hand shapes, and golden symbols were continuously injected into the golden energy in front of him. As he finished chanting, the golden light that was originally protecting his body gradually changed, forming a boundary of seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple. His power suddenly increased, and the golden light pillar that he released also turned into a seven-colored light pillar. The size of the energy pillar obviously increased, and with a strong and powerful aura, it gradually suppressed Xuanyue's golden light pillar.
The magic that Mang Xiu used could only be recognized by those with the power of a white priest and above. This was the level-eight sacred light spell — the light of righteousness. Using the noble aura of heaven and earth, with the five lights and five perishing as the form, it condensed into a huge amount of energy to attack the enemy. Although the holy aura of the light of righteousness was not as pure as the energy of the golden light pillar that was produced by the descent of the divine light, the energy contained in the light of righteousness was much greater. It was one of the most powerful single-target spells among the level-eight sacred light spells. Even Xuanyue did not expect that Mang Xiu would use this magic. Pope's expression changed slightly, and he frowned. Even if he were to face Mang Xiu's light of righteousness, he would have to spend a lot of effort to dissolve it. He could not help but worry for his granddaughter.
When Xuan Ye saw the appearance of the light of righteousness, his whole body trembled. He also knew this magic, and its power was almost unimaginable. He did not expect that Mang Xiu would be able to use such a powerful magic so quickly. Xuanyue was obviously unprepared. In this situation where the opponent had the upper hand, Xuanyue would probably be pressured by the pressure. She would not even have the ability to chant a spell, let alone counterattack. Now, Xuan Ye could only hope that Mang Xiu would show mercy for the sake of the Pontiff and not hurt his daughter.
Nasha asked anxiously, "What should we do? What should we do now? Yue can't hold on any longer. " Xuan Ye looked at the magnificent light in front of the Great Hall of Light with difficulty, but there was nothing he could do. He could only comfort her in a low voice, "Don't be so anxious. Yue might not necessarily lose. If Yue's life is really in danger, I will definitely save her even if I have to risk being punished by Lord Pope. "
