Pope was shocked. Although he knew that Quan Yi was ruthless, he didn't expect her (invisible) to make such a ruthless suggestion. Each of the Red-Robed Sacrificial Priests had the cultivation of an Archmage. Even the Pope would not dare to say that he could easily defeat the four Red-Robed Sacrificial Priests, especially Xuan Yue. Her cultivation of Holy Light Magic was already very close to the Pope's realm. If the four Red-Robed Sacrificial Priests really joined forces, even the Celestial Dipper Sword Saint would not be able to handle them.
Hearing Quan Yi's words, Lardas was furious. The plan that was about to succeed was ruined by Quan Yi's words. He snorted in disdain and said coldly, "Your Majesty Quan Yi, you should know what the Red Mourners represent on the mainland. Asking four Red Mourners to attack an unknown Dumb. I'm afraid it will be detrimental to the Pope's reputation if word gets out. "
The guests walked to the front of the Altar of Light. Xi Wen said, "That's right. I agree with Grand Tutor Lardas. The Pope is the leader of the mainland. Although Dumb has gone overboard this time, I think it's still too much to ask four Red Mourners to test him alone. Lord Pope, please reconsider. "
"Yes, Leader Xi Wen is right. Even though Dumbo's actions today were wrong, Jiaoyan was the one who broke the contract first. How could he let the Four Red Specters gang up on him?" The person who spoke was the president of the continent's Magic Guild, Cary. As soon as he finished speaking, the various powers that had come for Dumb all agreed. In an instant, there was a commotion around the Altar of Light.
Pope was silent. If Quan Yi hadn't appeared, he believed that with his authority and the reason that Lardas had given, he would be able to resolve this matter smoothly. However, Quan Yi's sudden appearance would definitely cause some doubts in the minds of the Pope's clergy. If he hastily rejected Quan Yi's suggestion, not only would many of the higher-ups of the Pope be dissatisfied, but it would also have a negative impact on the hearts of Ba Bylon and his subordinates. For a moment, he hesitated. It was still difficult to decide.
Ah Daze looked at the pairs of concerned eyes below the stage. His heart was filled with warmth. He was not alone! He had friends and teachers, and they were all concerned about him. Looking at Xuanyue, who was standing with her head lowered, Daze took a deep breath. He said resolutely, "Master Pope, you don't have to feel troubled. Just do as Her Majesty Quan Yi said, I am willing to accept the test of the four Red Robes."
Adai's words caused an uproar among the members of the clergy. In the hearts of the clergy, the Red Praying Robes were second only to the Pope. They held a high position in their hearts. Adai dared to challenge the four Red Praying Robes on his own. He was not taking the Hierarch seriously at all.
When Xi Wen heard Adai's words, he was shocked and scolded, "Adai, don't talk nonsense."
Quan Yi's eyes revealed a trace of viciousness. He said in a neutral tone, "Sect Leader Xi Wen, since Adai is willing, why do you have to stop him? I am really surprised by his courage! The disciples nurtured by the Tiangang School are indeed extraordinary! "
Adai snorted coldly. "You are the ruler of the Luori Empire's Dark Kingdom? No wonder the Luori Empire became like that. You are not a good person. Be careful, who knows when the Grim Reaper will appear in front of you. "
When Quan Yi heard the first part of Adai's words, she was furious. But when she heard the last part, her expression changed. She pointed at Adai and said, "You, what Grim Reaper are you talking about?"
Adai sneered and said, "The Grim Reaper who destroyed the assassin's guild and killed a large number of nobles in the Luori Empire! Don't tell me you don't know of his existence? If you want to die, he will be happy to grant your wish. After all, you are the source of the Luori Empire's darkness. "
Quan Yi's already pale face turned green. She pointed at Adai with a trembling finger. "You, what did you say? Who is the source of the darkness? Your Holiness the Pope, you have to help me! "
Adai snorted disdainfully. He turned to look at Xuanyue and ignored him.
Pope looked at Adai with some blame. Since things had come to this, even he could not blame the situation. He turned to look at Ba Bui and the rest and said, "How do you think we should deal with this matter?"
Although Ba Bylon hated Adai for ruining his son's wedding, he was still the vice presiding judge. He knew that the punishment was too severe. Just as he was about to speak, his wife beside him spoke first. Luoshui's eyes revealed a strong hatred. She said angrily, "Let the four Red Robed Priests test him. We have no objections."
Pope looked at Luoshui meaningfully. He sighed and said, "In that case, let the four Red Robed Priests test Adai on the Altar of Light. If Adai can hold on for more than half an hour, he will pass the test."
Xi Wen said angrily, "Master Pope, how can you do that? Let Adai go against four Red Robed Priests alone. Isn't that equivalent to giving him a death sentence? I will never agree. Our Tiangang School will never agree. "I support Adai's decision." The people on Adai's side started to clamor. They all pointed at Pope's decision.
Pope's eyes flashed coldly. As the Emperor of Tiangang and the highest ruler of the mainland, he had never encountered such a situation. He was about to explode, but Adai beat him to it. Adai stopped the crowd and said sincerely, "Uncle Xi Wen, teachers, and friends, thank you for your support of Adai. However, it was indeed wrong to be an idiot today. As a disciple of Tiangang School, I cannot back down from a challenge. I cannot embarrass Tiangang School, and I cannot disappoint Grandmaster. Please rest assured, I have the confidence to take on this challenge. Please do not make things difficult for Master Pope. "
Xi Wen sighed and shook his head. He did not say anything else. Everyone else's eyes were filled with worry. Quan Yi said disdainfully, "Reckless." Adai did not even look at her and said indifferently, "When people are talking, dogs should not talk."
"You, you dare to call me a dog?"
Feng Wen, who was beside Xi Wen, said seriously, "Adai, how can you call Her Majesty a dog? Isn't that an insult to that loyal animal? "Seeing Feng Wen's serious expression, everyone started to laugh. Even the Pope couldn't help but laugh. The previous estrangement between him and the Heavenly Dipper Sword Faction had disappeared. If it weren't for Biyin Luoge holding her back, Quan Yi would have rushed forward. Biyin Luoge comforted Quan Yi while saying to the Pope, "Since Dumby is willing to accept the test, Your Holiness, we can begin."
Pope sighed and nodded, "En …" He was about to give instructions to the four Red Robed Priests when he was interrupted.
"Wait." Xuanyue, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke. She raised her head and the tear stains on her face had disappeared. She looked at Dumb and said, "Master Pope, as one of the parties involved in this matter, please find someone to replace me to test him. To avoid suspicion of favoritism, please find someone to replace me to test him. "
The Pope nodded and said, "Very well, I will allow you to withdraw from this test. Who is willing to take over the position of Mystic Moon Priestess and test Dumby?" He looked at the crowd on the stage.
Luoshui stopped Ba Bylon and his son who were about to rush out. Pope said, "Master Pope. In the Holy Hall, only the Chief Judge can have the same position as a Red Robed Priest. "
Pope frowned. Looking deeply at Luo Shui, Luo Shui met the Pope's deep gaze that seemed to be able to see through her heart, and her delicate body trembled slightly. He couldn't help but lower his head. Pope turned his gaze to Xuan Yuan. He pondered for a moment and said, "Chief Judge. Are you willing to take over the position of Mystic Moon Priestess and test Dumby? "
Xuan Yuan's eyes revealed a complicated expression. After a while, he shook his head. "Lord Pope, I'm not willing. As a senior clergyman of the Holy Hall, so many people besieged a junior, which was not good for the reputation of the Holy Hall. Although he blasphemed God and insulted the Holy Hall today, as the representatives of justice and the people who spread God's will, how could we treat him like this? In my opinion, having three red-robed priests conduct the test is more than enough. “
Pope didn't wait for Luoshui to object. He nodded and said, "Alright, the Presiding Judge has a point. If that's the case, we'll let the three priests, Xuan Ye, Mang Xiu, and Yu Jian, test Dumb. Guests, please step back a hundred meters. "
With one less Red-robed Priest, Xi Wen felt a little more at ease. However, he still didn't know if Dumby could fight against three top-notch Magicians alone. He looked anxiously at Dumb, then led the crowd away with Lardas. Quan Yi turned around and retreated. She said gloatingly, "Fighting with three red-robed priests, I'm afraid he won't even know how he died." As he was walking out, he suddenly felt his feet being blocked by something. He lost his balance and fell to the ground. "Ouch." Quan Yi's body, which had already been hollowed out by wine and women, immediately felt like it was falling apart, and cried out in pain. He had felt a wave of magical energy, but he did not expect it to be an attack on Quan Yi. After all, he was the Imperial Tutor of the Sunset Empire, and he was furious. He swept his gaze across the guests, but all of them walked out without looking at him. He could not tell who the attacker was. None of the guests had a good impression of the Sunset Empire, and there was no lack of high-level mages. Anyone could have attacked, so how could he tell? He sighed and quickly helped Quan Yi up. He said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, be careful."
Quan Yi groaned as she got up from the ground. She looked at the place where she fell and said doubtfully, "It's flat ground, how did I fall? It's so f * cking weird."
Pope didn't pay attention to what was happening below the stage. He looked at Dumb and sighed. "You're on your own. Unrelated members of the Holy Church, please leave. "
Ba Bui glared at Dumb. The hatred in his heart had reached its peak. He couldn't wait to tear Dumb into pieces with his own hands to vent his anger. His parents dragged him down the Altar of Light with great difficulty.
Xuanyue lowered her head and followed her mother down the stage. Dumb couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he saw her ignoring him. He thought to himself, Yue, are you still not going to forgive me? He was very clear about the strength of the Red-robed Priests. He wasn't confident that he could withstand the attacks of three Red-robed Priests for half an hour. Looking at Xuanyue, his heart gradually turned cold. He sighed. Even if I die here today, I will have no regrets. After all, I stopped Yue from marrying someone she didn't love. At this moment, Dumb had already made up his mind to die. A cold light flashed in his eyes, and a cold aura instantly surrounded his body. At this moment, Dumb suddenly felt a warmth in his palm, as if there was something extra. He couldn't help but be stunned. A familiar voice sounded in his heart, "Dumb, don't hurt my father. You must be careful. I, I will wait for you. Don't forget, Absolute Defense. " This voice was so familiar. The words filled with concern made Dumb's heart warm up. He looked at Xuanyue, who had already walked down the altar, and his heart was in turmoil.
It turned out that when Xuanyue was about to walk down the altar, she used spatial magic to transfer the Ring of Protection in her hand to Dumb's palm and said those words. With Xuanyue's encouragement, Dumb's confidence instantly increased. He opened his palm and looked at the pure white ring that still had some residual warmth. Under the agitation of his emotions, his body actually trembled slightly. He knew that regardless of whether Xuanyue had forgiven him or not, at the very least, she still loved him and was still concerned about his safety. That was more than enough.
Pope circled his hands and flew to the entrance of the Brilliance Shrine wrapped in golden light. He said in a low voice, "Dumb has blasphemed the God on the Altar of Light. I order the three Priests, Xuan Ye, Yu Jian, and Mang Xiu, to carry out the God's punishment on him. Regardless of life or death, the time limit is half an hour. Begin. " Under Pope's command, a dazzling white light rose from the three Red-Robed Priests at the same time. Mang Xiu and Yu Jian waved their right hands at the same time, and each of them shot out a light blade filled with holy aura towards Dumb. As for Xuan Ye, a golden light flashed in his hand, and the God's Fury landed in his palm. He quickly chanted an incantation. They all knew that Dumb's martial skills were powerful, and they knew that they absolutely could not give him a chance to attack. The three of them had been Red-Robed Priests for many years, and they already had a deep understanding of each other. Mang Xiu and Yu Jian gave up on chanting high-level magic and prepared to use low-level magic to tie down Dumb, giving Xuan Ye a chance to use high-level magic.
Dumb's eyes shone with power. He snorted coldly, and a silver energy shield appeared in each of his hands. He blocked the two light blades without dodging. With two loud booms, a large amount of white light scattered in all directions from the Altar of Light. Dumb stomped his right foot on the ground and charged towards Mang Xiu at lightning speed. Pope's biggest mistake was to let the three Red-Robed Priests fight Dumb in the narrow space of the Altar of Light. How could Dumby not understand the advantages and disadvantages of magic and martial arts? In this narrow space, it naturally wanted to be the main attacker. It didn't want to give the three Red Priests a chance to use their powerful magic. When Dumb's blue figure flashed and appeared in front of Mang Xiu, Pope already realized this problem. However, there was nothing he could do now. Everything depended on the three Red-Robed Priests.
As one of the four main Red-robed Priests, Mang Xiu naturally had extraordinary abilities. Although he was surprised by the speed at which Dumby was charging towards him, he did not panic. A golden light flashed in his hand, and a golden tulip appeared in front of him. Mang Xiu shouted, "Light Waltz." A golden light suddenly shone in front of him, and countless golden energy that looked like the petals of a tulip combined into a tornado that rushed towards Dumby. The dazzling energy dazzled everyone watching the battle from the edge of the altar. This was Mang Xiu's unique skill. The golden tulip in his hand was condensed from light elements after decades of hard work. It could summon a powerful light magic in the shortest time possible with just a few words. According to his many years of research on the energy characteristics of compressed tulips, Mang Xiu developed this magic called Waltz of Light. It was specially used for self-defense. Every piece of tulip energy that he released contained a huge amount of magic power. Every sharp petal had a powerful penetrating power that could kill people. This magic was also something that Mang Xiu had only successfully researched in recent years. Even if he used up all the energy of a tulip, he could still create another one in a short time.
Suddenly seeing the golden petals light up in front of Mang Xiu, Dumby was also shocked. However, his Living Transformation had already reached the realm of the sixth transformation. The solid Living Combat Aura was the nemesis of almost all magic. The highly compressed Combat Aura would not be afraid of magic of lower energy. Dumby could be said to be a veteran of hundreds of battles. Although he was shocked, it did not affect his attack. Not only did his forward momentum not stop, but it also accelerated. His hands continuously fluttered in the air, transforming into all kinds of hand shapes. Large amounts of silver fighting energy seeped out from every part of his body and forcibly crashed into the tornado formed by the petals of the tulip. The petals that contained a huge amount of energy were pierced through by the indestructible Combat Aura threads. They could no longer display the power they should have. The gold and silver light continued to explode in the air, and the golden light disappeared amidst the magnificence. After the silver fighting energy broke through the Waltz of Light, it attacked Mang Xiu without any hesitation. Mang Xiu gritted his teeth. He put his hands together and kept the tulip in his hands. When the silver fighting energy was about a foot in front of him, he suddenly opened his palms and pushed forward. A powerful golden pillar of light suddenly shot out. It was the purest light element that contained a large amount of compressed energy. Although the silver combat aura threads were not neutralized by the golden light, they were blown away and could no longer harm the Light Cultivator.
Dumb was shocked. He thought to himself, These red-robed priests really live up to their reputation. They are not easy to deal with! However, Mang Xiu's stubborn resistance had completely aroused the fighting spirit in Dumb's heart. He shouted loudly and did not dodge the huge light element energy that was rushing towards him. Instead, he transformed into a huge silver energy sword that was five feet long, half a foot wide, and three inches thick. He suddenly slashed at the light pillar that was rushing towards him. There was a screeching sound of metal rubbing against each other. The light pillar that Mang Xiu had condensed with a large amount of his magic power was actually split into two by Dumb's sword. The golden energy poured out from both sides of Mang Xiu's body, but it did not cause any harm. Dumb's body followed the sword. The huge silver sword mercilessly slashed at Mang Xiu. The huge energy that the huge sword carried shocked Mang Xiu. He did not expect that he would not be able to block Dumb's attack even after giving up the tulip that he had condensed for a long time. That huge silver energy sword made him feel that death was so close to him for the first time ever since he became a red-robed priest. Time did not allow him to chant any more high-level incantations. He could only use all his magic power to cast a layer of golden energy boundary in front of him. Although he knew that this was not enough to resist Dumb's attack, he could only do his best and leave it to fate.
Just when Dumb was three meters away from Mang Xiu, Hauma's magic spell was completed. He and Mang Xiu had a deep friendship. How could he watch his old friend get hurt by Dumb's sword? When Dumb was charging at Mang Xiu, he had already taken out his magic tool, the Staff of Light. With the staff's amplification, he quickly put some distance between them and cast the level-7 light spell, the Sword of Light. The huge golden sword of light finally formed when Mang Xiu was in danger. It suddenly slashed at Dumb's back. In Hauma's opinion, even if his magic could not hurt Dumb, it would certainly be able to resolve Mang Xiu's crisis. But would everything really go as smoothly as he imagined? Feeling the powerful aura coming from behind him, Dumb did not panic at all. His body suddenly accelerated in mid-air, and his forward momentum did not change. He actually competed with the speed of Hauma's golden sword of light. Under his full force, the huge silver sword expanded by three feet, and in an instant, it was already in front of Mang Xiu.
The light elemental energy wall that Mang Xiu set up couldn't stop the powerful Sword of Life. As if it wasn't affected at all, the silver light penetrated the golden energy wall and arrived in front of Mang Xiu. Mang Xiu thought to himself, "I'm done for." He closed his eyes and waited for death to come. He didn't expect that after dominating the continent for so many years, he would die in the hands of a young man in this situation. The disappointment in his heart made his face pale. One of the four red-robed priests of the Holy Church had completely given up resisting. In just a few minutes, Dumby's performance had already stunned everyone. When he agreed to accept the unfair test, who would have thought that he would become the main attacker?
Dumb came to the Holy Hall to find the person he loved. Why would he casually kill someone? Just as the silver sword in his hand was about to hit Mang Xiu's head, he turned his wrist, and the Sword of Life changed from slashing to slapping towards Mang Xiu's head. His goal was only to temporarily knock Mang Xiu out. At this moment, a shout sounded like a clap of thunder in Dumb's ears. "How dare you!" The loud sound was like the soul magic used by the Fourth Elder of the Yakin people. It caused Dumb's heart to tremble, and the silver sword in his hand slowed down for a moment. In less than a tenth of a second, the Sword of Light had already reached his back. At the same time, a golden bolt of lightning struck down from the sky. This golden bolt of lightning was the Judgment of God that Xuan Ye had used. While Dumb was attacking Mang Xiu, Xuan Ye had used all of his spiritual power. With the help of God's Wrath, he had successfully cast the level-eight offensive spell, Judgment of God. A thick golden cloud floated above the Altar of Light. The golden lightning bolt that was as thick as a water bucket was shot out from the golden cloud. The enormous divine power instantly enveloped Dumb, who was in front of Mang Xiu.
Fear quickly spread throughout Dumb's entire body. The Ring of Protection on his finger emitted a layer of white light at the right time to cover his body. Dumb knew that if he knocked Mang Xiu unconscious with this strike, even with Mang Xiu's powerful strength, he would still be severely injured. If he were to use his physical body to resist the combined attacks of Yujian and Xuan Ye, he would definitely be heavily injured by the two enormous energies that struck his head and back. It would be questionable whether he would even have the strength to fight again. For his own safety, he could only helplessly withdraw the longsword that he had slashed out. The silver energy instantly transformed into a thick barrier of light that protected his body from the stubble. Amidst the loud bang, the golden sword of light from Feather Jian and the lightning bolt that struck down from the sky heavily bombarded Dumb's silver energy shield. The gold and silver light exploded and completely enveloped the entire Altar of Light.
Wrapped in the light, Dumb's body trembled violently. Under the combined attack of the two Red Priests, even with his strength, he could not help but let out a muffled groan. His body swayed, and he unconsciously took a step forward. This step brought him right in front of Mang Xiu. Mang Xiu had already woken up when Xuan Ye shouted the word "audacious". He saw that Dumb had suffered two heavy blows in a row and seemed to have no strength to attack him. He quickly transformed a ball of golden magic energy and suddenly blasted it at Dumb's chest. His judgment was correct. Under the attack of Xuan Ye and Feather Jian, the meridians in Dumb's body were shaken to a certain extent. Before he could react, he had already met Mang Xiu's attack. Mang Xiu's energy ball was much weaker than Feather Jian and Xuan Ye's attack. However, the solid energy shield that Dumb had condensed was mainly used to defend his head and back. After bearing the attack, the energy shield had already loosened. Mang Xiu's energy ball had successfully penetrated the outer defense and hit his chest.
With a flash of golden light, Dumb's body was blasted into the air. The ordinary energy transformed by the Ring of Protection of Flesh was not enough to resist Mang Xiu's attack. He rolled a few times in the air and landed on the edge of the Light Altar. A mouthful of blood came out of his mouth. He had been injured due to his carelessness. If Dumb had not been merciful just now, even if Xuan Ye and Feather Jian could have attacked him at the right time, Mang Xiu would definitely have died under the energy sword. However, it was because of his kindness that he had suffered such a heavy attack. Feather Jian and Mang Xiu took advantage of the time when Dumb was repelled and quickly chanted a spell. However, Xuan Ye's God's Judgment did not end. Dumb could clearly feel that it was Xuanyue's voice. Love surged in his heart. In this extremely dangerous situation, he used the Goris's Wish.
"Boom!" The golden lightning heavily bombarded the Light Altar. The Light Altar had been continuously strengthened by tens of generations of masters in the Holy Hall. It contained a huge amount of energy. Even the God's Judgment could not hurt it at all. Only a black mark appeared on the altar's ground. Not even a slight crack was left. Xuan Ye was surprised to find that Dumb had disappeared. He had not been attacked. When Dumb's figure reappeared, he was already in the center of the Light Altar. A huge and cold aura suddenly came out. Dumb coldly said, "You forced me to do this. I'm sorry. I will let you see the true strength of a Sword Saint." With a long roar, Dumb floated up and soared into the sky under the effect of his fighting energy. He crossed his hands, and his figure quickly swayed in the air. A silver whirlwind spontaneously appeared and spun wildly.
Although Xuan Ye was shocked, he did not hesitate in the slightest. He could not lose today's battle, not only for his good brother Babulun, but also for the honor of himself and the Vatican. The God's Fury suddenly flashed, and the golden light in the sky gathered all its energy to form three bolts of lightning, which went straight for Dumby in the air. This was the final attack of the God's Judgement. It condensed the strongest offensive power of this level-eight spell, especially the first of the three bolts of lightning. The lightning bolt was a meter thick, and it seemed like it could not be resisted by a human. When the lightning from the God's Judgment landed on top of Dumb's head, something strange happened.
The crystal-clear silver light met the Judgment of God in the form of a whirlwind. Something unexpected happened. The moment the three lightning bolts came into contact with the silver whirlwind, the massive divine energy was pulled aside by the silver whirlwind and flew toward the periphery of the Altar of Light. It didn't clash head-on with the silver energy at all.
Pope cursed inwardly. His hands turned into a ball of golden light and met the lightning bolt. This lightning bolt was the strongest attack of the God's Judgment. After all, Pope was the leader of the Holy Hall and the person closest to God on the Tianyuan Continent. Although the power of the God's Judgment was strong, it could not hurt him at all. A low chant resounded, and the energy released by the Pope suddenly transformed into the appearance of an angel. A huge amount of divine power crashed into the lightning like a whirlpool. Two golden rays of light made a muffled sound in the air. The golden lightning rushed into the whirlpool and disappeared without making any sound of explosion. However, when Pope was dealing with the strongest lightning bolt, the other two God's Judgments were also striking in different directions. He was too late to save them. One of them rushed towards the guests who came to watch the ceremony, and the other flew towards the clergy of the Holy Hall. Among the guests, the four masters, Xi Wen, Liao Wen, Feng Wen, and Lu Wen, stepped forward. Two yellow and two green lights intertwined in the air to form a huge yellow-green light net. They successfully captured the energy of the God's Judgment. Under the effect of the solidified energy, the golden lightning formed by the God's Judgment was finally deflected. However, Xi Wen and the other three people took a few steps back before they could stabilize their bodies. They could not help but look at each other in shock. Only when they faced it in real life did they realize how powerful this Level-8 magic was. They finally understood Tiangang Kensei's evaluation of magic.
