Initially, Manxiu did not want to use this spell. However, in the process of both of them using the Descent of the Divine Light, he felt a strong pressure from Xuanyue. This was something that an outsider would never be able to see. Although it looked like they were evenly matched, this was not the case. Xuanyue's Descent of the Divine Light was much purer than Manxiu's, and Manxiu was almost at his limit. Therefore, for the sake of his own honor as a Red-robed Priest, he had no choice but to use the Noble Light. Under the effect of the colorful Noble Light, Xuanyue's Descent of the Divine Light had been suppressed to a distance of three meters in front of her. She was at a complete disadvantage. However, was Xuanyue going to be defeated just like that? No, of course not. At this moment, her heart was filled with the desire to win. How could she admit defeat so easily? Xuanyue suddenly closed her eyes, as if the strong pressure outside her body had nothing to do with her. She was not affected by the Noble Light at all. Her pretty face was calm without a trace of emotion, and a faint chant was heard. "Heaven and Earth are infinite, all techniques return to the origin. Divine power vanquishes demons. Absolute Sound of Light, explode, pure divine power." With the chanting of the spell, the golden pillar of light released by Xuanyue suddenly increased in size, forcibly stopping the Noble Light in its tracks. However, she did not use a higher-level spell. The incantation she chanted was the most powerful support spell in the Holy Light Element. It was a spell that could instantly increase the absorption rate of light elements and strengthen the user's control over the magic she used. This level-seven auxiliary spell was the strongest single-target auxiliary spell. Xuanyue's application of magic was completely different from Manxiu's. Manxiu would first use a more powerful spell when he was in danger, and then release the power of the previous spell. He would then dissolve the energy into the stronger spell that was released later. This was a common practice among ordinary mages, and there was nothing wrong with it. However, when the energy of the original magic was fused into the new magic, a part of the energy would inevitably be lost. The method Xuanyue used was different. She did not change the state of the original magic, but enhanced it on the basis of the original magic to achieve a greater effect. The power of a seventh-tier spell combined with a seventh-tier auxiliary spell was definitely not inferior to that of an eighth-tier spell. Moreover, because there was no loss of energy, it would also reduce the consumption of the caster. In terms of the use of magical energy, Xuanyue already had the upper hand.
Xuanyue's delicate body, wrapped in an even more intense golden light, slowly floated up from the ground. Suddenly, under everyone's astonished gazes, the space between Xuanyue's eyebrows lit up, and a golden symbol emerged. If Xuanyue saw it herself, she would definitely be surprised to recognize that this golden symbol was exactly the same as the one on the Phoenix Blood. As the golden symbol lit up, two wings of light rose behind Xuanyue's back. The huge energy wings could clearly be seen flapping gently. Every time they flapped, the golden beam of light emitted by Xuanyue would strengthen a little, and correspondingly, it would force the Noble Light back a little.
Pope saw the two wings of light behind Xuanyue's back, and he almost exclaimed out loud. He could not be more clear about the form of the wings of light. Those were the same wings of light that had appeared during the baptism of God! This kind of vision had never happened before. All the books in the Holy Hall did not record that a person who had received the baptism of God would have a pair of wings of light. Although there were only two wings of light, it was enough to make Pope marvel. He was even more convinced that Xuanyue and Dumb were the saviors of the world. He knew that the scales of victory had begun to tilt towards Xuanyue's side.
Xuanyue, who had her eyes closed, could clearly feel the light elements in the air rushing into her body at a speed several times faster than usual. This huge energy, through the process of her condensing, merging, transforming, and then releasing, continued to increase her attack power. Under the effect of Xuanyue, the pure golden light gradually took back the territory that had been invaded by the Noble Light. The Noble Light was already the most powerful magic that Manxiu could use. Seeing that the colorful light he emitted was gradually being forced back, and seeing the vision produced by Xuanyue's body, he had already lost confidence in himself. Under the situation where he did not use the help of the equipment, he really did not have any way to deal with it. The Noble Light was being pushed back by the golden light pillar step by step.
Xuanyue did not know that she had firmly suppressed Manxiu. She continued to control the divine energy and infused it into her attack. A benevolent voice rang out in Mystic Moon's heart. "Child, don't continue attacking. Mag Xiu is almost at his limit. Retract your energy and store it within your body. After that, guide the two energies into the sky."
Xuanyue was shocked. She woke up from the golden ocean in her body. She could tell that the voice was coming from her grandfather, Pope. When she opened her eyes, she realized that the situation on the battlefield had been completely reversed. The Noble Light emitted by Manxiu had been suppressed to a distance of two meters in front of him by her own golden light pillar. Sweat was dripping from his forehead, and it seemed that he could not hold on any longer. Seeing this, Xuanyue quickly retracted the energy of the attack and stored it in her body. As the pressure was greatly reduced, Manxiu immediately heaved a sigh of relief. There was a hint of gratitude in his eyes. As Xuanyue had the absolute upper hand, she had the dominant role in controlling the energy. When she controlled the golden light pillar that she emitted and the colorful Noble Light emitted by Manxiu to return to the center, the stored energy suddenly exploded. The forward force was changed to an upward force, and the two energies of different colors were guided to the sky. With a flash of light, the surging divine aura in front of the Great Hall of Light disappeared. Everything returned to normal.
Seeing the change of the scene, none of the clergymen in the Holy Hall could say anything. Only those with a high level of cultivation could tell who the final winner was. However, the performance of Xuanyue and Manxiu was a feast for their eyes. The ability of a magister was indeed powerful! Mang Xiu's priest robe was soaked by his own sweat, and his heavy breathing could be heard clearly.
Pope looked at Xuanyue and Manxiu respectively. He smiled and said, "Most loyal believers of God, everyone has seen everything just now. Goddess Xuanyue and Manxiu's priest fought to a draw. I have decided to grant the honor of Goddess Xuanyue as the acting red-robed priest. She will be promoted or demoted according to her performance in the future. " Pope's face darkened. His voice suddenly became stern. "After nearly a thousand years, the dark forces have risen again. They threaten the survival of all the races on the continent. As believers of God, you and I will do our part for the peace of the continent at all costs. In three days, we will go to the Heaven's Origin race to search for the foreign dark races. To the Vatican, this is the most important battle in the past thousand years. We are the most loyal followers of the God of Heaven. We must pay a great price for the peace of the continent, even our lives. The thousand-year calamity of the continent depends on us. Are you willing to follow me and fight against the dark forces to the end? "
The clergymen who could enter the Holy Mountain of the Holy Hall were the most loyal believers of God. Not only did they have high cultivation, but they also had fanatical faith in God. Hearing Pope's words, only one voice echoed in the Hall of Light. All the clergymen shouted, "We are willing" and "We will follow Lord Pope forever". In their hearts, they were full of respect for God and hatred for the dark forces.
Pope looked at the reaction of the clergymen with satisfaction. He said loudly, "Good. You are indeed the children of God. In that case, let us fight against the evil forces to the end. I will lead you to the final victory under the protection of God. Now, go back to your posts and get ready to go. "
The clergymen gradually left. Pope ordered Manxiu, Yu Jian, and Xuan Ye's family to follow him into the Hall of Light.
A golden flame ignited in Pope's hand. With a flash of golden light, it entered Manxiu's body. Under the effect of Pope's divine power, Manxiu's spirit recovered a little. Pope bowed respectfully. "Thank you for saving my old face." He turned around and smiled at Xuanyue. "What a young hero! It seems that I have really grown old. "
Xuanyue bowed respectfully to Manxiu. "I'm sorry, Grandpa Manxiu. I hit you too hard just now. Are you alright?"
Mang Xiu shook his head and said, "It's just a competition. How can one not go all out? Your strength has already surpassed us old fellows. I'm afraid that even Xuan Ye can't compare to you. I really didn't expect that the naughty little demoness would actually have such a cultivation." Hearing Mang Xiu's words, Xuan Yue's pretty face turned red and she lowered her head. Icebound's heart trembled slightly, but only for a moment.
Pope was not surprised that Xuanyue could get the position of Acting Red Priest. He was worried about the Savior. His deep gaze fell on Xuan Ye. "There are no outsiders here. Ye'er, where is Dumb? Since you brought Yue back, why didn't you bring him along? What happened? I know you are biased against Dumb, but you must not let your bias affect the fate of the Holy Hall. Do you understand? The Savior is sent by God. Only by following the Savior's footsteps can we make the right choice. "
Xuan Ye broke out in a cold sweat. Although he knew that Pope valued Dumb, he did not expect it to be to this extent. He murmured, "Your Excellency Pope, are you really the Savior?"
The Pope nodded and said, "His Majesty God Feather once recorded the situation of the appearance of the Messiah in the secret scriptures of the Vatican. The descent of the divine rain of light is the omen of the appearance of the Messiah. Although you were far away in the Sky Yuan Clan, you should have seen the rain of light not long ago. Yue told me that the rain of light was caused by her and Dumb. In addition to the Puyan people's Prín Prophet, Dumb and Yue are the Saviors of the continent. Moreover, the Savior should be Dumb. We must find him and follow his footsteps to welcome the arrival of the Millennium Calamity. Tell me, where is Dumb now? "
Xuanyue suddenly stepped forward and said, "Your Excellency Pope, I'm a little tired. I want to go back and rest first. If there's anything, you can ask Priest Xuan Ye. I don't want to hear the word Dumb again. "
Pope felt the cold aura from his granddaughter. He frowned and said, "Alright, then you can go and rest first." Xuanyue's cold face did not reveal her inner thoughts. After bowing to everyone, she left the Radiant Hall alone.
Pope turned his gaze from Xuanyue's back to Xuan Ye and said, "Tell me, what happened between Yue and Dumb? This concerns the safety of the entire Holy Hall. You can't hide anything. "
Xuan Ye's heart skipped a beat. He did want to cover up for Ba Buyi, but how could he hide it when the Supreme Pontiff had made it sound so serious? Brother Ba Bylon, I'm sorry, I have to tell you the truth. Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and said, "It's like this, on the thirteenth day after we were trapped in the Elven Forest, the dark races suddenly retreated without a sound. As to where they retreated to, and why they retreated, we don't know. And at this time, Xuanyue, Dumb and their friends came to the Elven Forest together. At that time, the relationship between Yue and Dumb was very close. But you also know that I never had a good impression of Dumb, so I asked Yue to return to the Holy Hall with me. But Dumb seemed to have deep feelings for me, and he repeatedly asked Dumb to come back with me. He even threatened me with death. I had no choice but to agree. Then... "Xuan Ye narrated everything that happened that day in detail. Pope's face became more and more gloomy as he spoke. After listening to the whole story, his body trembled slightly, and his divine power fluctuated unstably. Pope let out a long sigh and shouted, "Vile spawn! What a vile spawn! How could he do such a thing that tarnishes the honor of the Holy Hall? "
Xuan Ye was shocked when he saw how angry his father was and hurriedly said, "Your Holiness the Supreme Pontiff, it was indeed wrong of him to not comply this time. However, he had only done so because his emotions had clouded his mind. Please forgive him for the contributions he has made to the Holy Hall for generations. "Xuan Ye knew that once Pope gave an order, it would not be changed. He could only beg in advance.
A cold light flashed in Pope's eyes, "Forgive him? Don't you know how big a mistake he made this time? Not only did he let the Savior leave us, but it also has a huge impact on the reputation of the Holy Hall. Although the five forces represented by Dumb's friends are not very strong, but together, they can threaten the Holy Hall. What's more, behind Dumb is the strongest man on the continent, Tiangang Kensei, who even I dare not offend. Xuan Ye, think about it carefully. If Dumb is not the reincarnation of the Savior, why does he have so many forces around him? Prophet Prín of the Puyan people is the most far-sighted. He was the first one to win over Dumb. I believe that as long as we can defeat the dark forces, the Puyan people will have a great development. Alas, what a sin! Is God really going to punish the Holy Hall? "
Xuan Ye now realized the seriousness of the situation. He said anxiously, "Lord Pope, what should we do now? Let me find Dumb, explain the misunderstanding to him, and bring him back to see you. "
There was a trace of disappointment in Pope's eyes, as if he suddenly aged ten years at this moment. He sighed and said, "Find? How are you going to find him? And with the relationship between you and Dumb, do you think he will believe you? I can see that Yue has sealed her heart because of Dumb. The feelings between them can only be resolved by themselves. It's impossible for external forces to play a role. If the Holy Hall is destined to be destroyed, how can human beings save it? The Savior has his own destiny. Whatever happens in the future, just let him be. Well, you go back and rest. As for Ba Bui, forget about him. After all, the Ba family has made great contributions to the Holy Hall. However, you have to warn Ba Bylon to control his son. "
Looking at his father's appearance, Xuan Ye's heart was also uncomfortable. Pope's life was the same as the deceased Na Yen's, dedicated to the Holy Hall. At this moment, the Holy Hall was facing such a crisis. Xuan Ye could completely understand Pope's mood, but he didn't know how to comfort him. Pope's eyes turned to Nasha, and his voice was much softer, "Shasha, I feel very guilty about Na Yen's matter. I didn't think it through when I sent them to carry out the task. You should restrain your grief. If you need anything, don't hesitate to tell your father-in-law."
Nasha's eyes turned red, and tears flowed down. She choked and said, "Father-in-law, this time it's not your fault. No one knew that there would be such a big change. Father asked for benevolence and got benevolence... "At this point, Nasha could not go on and fell into Xuan Ye's arms and cried bitterly. Pope sighed and turned to the red-robed priest, Hama, and said, "You go and arrange for the families of the victims this time. Try to meet their requirements and comfort them. Xuan Ye, you go and rest. Take good care of Nasha. Also, Yue's mental state is very unstable now. You have to take care of her. "
Everyone took the order and left. The Great Hall of Light became empty. Pope turned to the tall statue of destiny behind him and devoutly chanted a prayer spell. Under the effect of his spell, the statue of destiny glowed with a golden halo. Pope murmured, "Your Excellency, please bless the Holy Hall and your people. Let the fallen warriors rest in peace in the Heavenly Realm. "
In the wilderness, Dumby kept flying. He didn't know where he was, but he could tell which way was east and which way was west by the light of the sun. For the past few days, he had been living like a savage. When he was hungry, he would find some wild fruits in the forest to eat. When he was tired, he would find a place to sit down and practice. Perhaps it was because he had driven all his thoughts out of his body, and his mental power was surprisingly concentrated. The progress of his Genuine Qi was abnormally fast, and his body had completely recovered.
While flying, Dumb suddenly found that there seemed to be a wisp of smoke curling up not far ahead. His heart moved. This was the first time he saw someone after leaving the Elf Forest. Without thinking, he quickly flew towards the place where the smoke was rising. The smoke was getting closer, and Dumb could clearly hear the sound of flowing water. That was the sound he longed for! Since his body recovered, this was the first time he saw a river. Under the urging of his subconscious, he passed through a forest and finally saw the ripples that he had been longing for. It was an unusually wide river, and the blue water was unusually clear. It was pouring towards the northwest. Dumb's body was already covered in dirt. Seeing the river in front of him, he did not hesitate to jump over the two-meter high embankment and fall into the river. With a splash, water splashed in all directions. Immersed in the cold river water, Dumby's spirit was immediately lifted. The huge force of the river lifted his body up, and Dumby's entire body emitted a white fighting aura. Back at the seaside, when his power was still very low, the endless flow of the bay could no longer wash away his body. At this time, the force of the river was even more insignificant. Dumb concentrated and controlled his body to sink to the bottom of the river. In the clear river, he could clearly see fish swimming past him. The impact of the water constantly washed away the dirt on his body. The river was very deep, and it took him a long time to sink to the bottom. According to Dumb's estimation, he had dived at least ten meters down. The bottom of the river was very clean. There was no silt as he had imagined. Instead, there were some smooth round stones. The vital energy in Dumb's body continuously circulated, forming his own internal circulation. This way, he could at least last a few hours without having to go ashore to breathe. He had not bathed for a long time, and his body was too dirty. Dumb kept changing his position, letting the surging river wash away the dirt on the surface of the Giant Spirit Snake Armor.
When the dirt on the surface of the Giant Spirit Snake Armor disappeared, Dumb took off the thin armor in the water. He held it tightly with his hands and continuously washed the dirt on it. Then, he carefully washed his body. When all of this was done, Dumb retracted the vital energy that was fighting against the buoyancy. His feet touched the bottom of the river, and his body shot out like an arrow.
With a splash, Dumb's body, wrapped in white fighting energy, rushed out of the river. After determining his position, he landed on the shore. Because it was inconvenient to wear the Giant Spirit Snake Armor in the water, he was completely naked. The refreshing feeling made Dumb's tense body relax a lot.
Just as he was about to land on the shore, something strange happened. A sharp gust of wind with a strong murderous aura shot toward him. It was a black figure with a cold blue light at the front. It stabbed toward Dumb's waist like lightning. At this time, because Dumb was holding the Giant Spirit Snake Armor and his body had just been washed, he was enjoying the refreshing feeling. Therefore, he was not prepared at all. The sneak attack of Cold Light had been restraining his aura. Only when he was one meter away from Dumb's body did a crazy murderous aura burst out. The sudden appearance of the murderous aura shocked Dumb. The surging murderous aura was not something that he could defend against if he was not in the best state of the Art of Life. By the time he realized the danger, the sharp, cold light was already less than half a meter away from his waist. In a situation where there was no way to dodge or resist, Dumb could only move the Giant Spirit Snake Armor to his waist. The black figure accurately hit Dumb's waist with the blue light. The sharp fighting energy suddenly burst out. Even though it was offset by the Giant Spirit Snake Armor, it was still so powerful. It crazily drilled into the meridians of Dumb's waist, wreaking havoc.
That sharp combat aura was very familiar to Dumby. Although Dumby had been hit by the opponent due to his carelessness, his current strength was so profound that it could be ranked among the top of the continent. A white light suddenly shone, and the liquid True Qi within Dumby's body abruptly stopped the sharp combat aura's impact. Dumby twisted his right hand, and the Giant Spirit Snake Armor wrapped around the opponent's dagger. The white combat aura protecting Dumby's body suddenly turned light blue. He didn't use his hands to transform it. A huge blue net of light had already enveloped the sneak attacker. Under the strong and gentle energy of the light net, the sneak attacker had no chance to resist at such a close distance. Her body was completely restrained by the light net, and her forward momentum came to a screeching halt. She stood right in front of Dumb, and the two of them were practically face to face.
Dumb didn't even need to look to know who this sneak attacker was. He was very familiar with this sneak attack. However, he was very curious as to why this girl from the Thieves Association would appear in front of him after more than a year. After he left the Psychedelic Forest, he didn't stay in the same place for too long, but she was still able to find him.
The person who had sneak attacked Dumb was Phoenix Slayer, who had been confined in the Thieves Association for a year. Back then, after she had been confined by the Thieves Association's President, she had been diligently cultivating. She couldn't believe that Dumb, who wasn't much older than her, could surpass her by so much in such a short period of time. The speed at which Dumb's martial skills improved made Phoenix Slayer extremely unwilling. Dumb became the target that she wanted to surpass. For the sake of this target, Phoenix Slayer had undergone cruel training that was akin to masochism. In a year's time, her strength had increased by a large margin. During this year, she couldn't forget Dumb's figure. She constantly told herself that it was because of the hatred she felt for Fourth Uncle's death. A year later, her confinement was lifted, and she unhesitatingly chose to leave the Thieves Association, which had already disappeared into the shadows, to find Dumb and take revenge on her own. Although the Thieves Association had disappeared, the information network was still there. Phoenix Slayer found out from her subordinates that Dumb had appeared in Andis City and had participated in the competition between the two Sorcerers Guild. She immediately set off for Andis City. However, by the time she arrived, Dumb and the others had already left. Not long after, she received news that Dumb had participated in the battle between the Moon Scar Mercenary Group and the Overlord Mercenary Group. He had displayed his invincible might, and the Overlord Mercenary Group had submitted to him. She immediately rushed to Valuo City, where the Moon Scar Mercenary Group was located. However, she was still a step too late. With the support of the Thieves Association's enormous and dense information network, Phoenix Slayer finally caught up to Dumb and the others when she arrived at Red Nightmare City. Just as she was looking for an opportunity to make her move, Dumb and Xuanyue saw the mission that Yan Li had left behind, and they quickly left. Although Phoenix Slayer wanted to catch up to them, she couldn't catch up to them no matter how hard she tried. In the end, she could only follow Yue Ji and the others, slowly arriving at the Puyan people. She knew that Dumb wouldn't separate from his friends. Among the Puyan people, she was astonished to discover that the light magic caster who had always been following Dumb was actually a woman. Moreover, she was such a beautiful woman. She couldn't help but feel a bit sour in her heart. Originally, she had planned to make her move while Dumb was recuperating in the Puyan people. However, Xuanyue was always by Dumb's side, and she didn't have any opportunity to make her move. Phoenix Slayer clearly knew that although her strength had increased by quite a bit, there was still a certain gap between her and experts like Dumb and Xuanyue. Therefore, she didn't act impulsively, and only waited quietly for an opportunity. After Dumb and the others left the Puyan people and headed for the Elf Territory, Phoenix Slayer didn't act rashly due to her previous lesson. She relied on her extremely high endurance to wait for the best opportunity to arrive. Phoenix Slayer's concealment technique had already reached the acme of perfection. Even Dumb hadn't discovered her existence. After arriving at the Elf Forest, Dumb and the others used the Elf Bracelet to enter the Elf Forest's ancient barrier. However, Phoenix Slayer couldn't do anything about it. However, in order to not lose Dumb, she used the Thieves Association's special item, the Thousand Miles Tracking Incense, to leave a mark on Dumb's body when he used the Elf Bracelet to open the barrier. As long as she didn't wash it excessively, the scent of the Thousand Miles Tracking Incense wouldn't disappear. As it turned out, she was completely right to do so. Early the next morning, she used the item that could detect the Thousand Miles Tracking Incense to discover that Dumb had already left the Elf Forest. Therefore, she quickly chased after him. However, how could she catch up to Dumb's speed when he was in grief? Dumb had been running for two days and two nights, and Phoenix Slayer had to run for two days before she could catch up to him. Finally, after Dumb recovered his strength, she gradually caught up to him. Because Dumby had just recovered his power, he wasn't advancing very quickly these past few days. He was constantly recovering his body, and that was why Phoenix Slayer was able to keep up with him. However, it was also very tiring for her to chase after him. Her physical strength was starting to run out. Today, when Dumb jumped into the river to take a bath, Phoenix Slayer knew that if she didn't make a move now, she wouldn't have another opportunity to do so. This was because the scent of the Thousand Miles Tracking Incense wouldn't remain in the river. When Dumb's naked body fell onto the shore, Phoenix Slayer knew that this was the best opportunity for her to make a move. Although Dumb's naked body made her feel extremely embarrassed, she still resolutely chose to attack him with all her strength. She used her poisoned dagger and pounced toward Dumb with all her strength. However, even with such a good opportunity, she still didn't succeed in killing Dumb. The power contained within the blue net of light was enormous, and Phoenix Slayer didn't have any opportunity to struggle free. She could only stare blankly at the naked Dumb in front of her. Only at this moment did she notice that Dumb's figure was so perfect, and she couldn't help but blush.
