Hearing Lucien's voice, Douglas, Fernando, and the rest of them all activated their specially-made items and saw the five clusters of "godhood".
At this moment, the cover of the iron black coffin that had been placed vertically fell to the ground, raising vague dust and revealing the "master" inside!
Faced with such a change, Douglas, Fernando, and the rest of them were ready to cast their spells, and a silver pocket watch appeared in Lucien's hands too.
Inside the black coffin stood a handsome blond man in a white robe. He was tall and strong, and his eyes were closed. His hands were crossed in front of his chest, making him look like a cross.
There was not the slightest vitality on his body, as if he had been dead for years, but his skin was smooth and glossy without the slightest decay. The most distinctive feature on his face was the hooked nose that made him look gloomy.
"Ivan?"
Suddenly, Lucien heard Douglas and Fernando's slightly shocked voices in the telepathic bond at the same time!
Ivan?
It was a very common name of the Schachran Empire, but when it was compared to the vintage crosses around, Lucien could only think of one person:
Saint Ivan, the first pontiff of the North Church!
Saint Ivan, the culprit who caused the division between the north and the south!
Saint Ivan, who named the capital of the Schachran Empire after him!
Why was he here?
Thinking quickly, 'Ivan' in the black iron coffin suddenly opened his eyes. They were a pair of eyes that were bluer than the ocean, sadder than melancholy, and more translucent than gems. They were so deep that they seemed to be absorbing all the light around, resulting in temporary darkness.
… …
In a secret prayer room in the Saint Ivan Church in Saint Ivan Castle …
Belkovsky, the current pontiff of the North Church, who had a standard big nose in Schachran's style, was praying before the cross. Suddenly, his eyes opened abruptly, and blueness quickly surged out of his bright yellow eyeballs.
"Who has broken into the Room of the Holy Spirit?" He said in a low and suppressed voice. Then, his body gradually turned into light and became unpredictable, as if he had melted into the air and been frozen there.
In the Saint Alexei, Saint Felix, Saint Uriel, and Saint Geno Church, the four saint level Grand Cardinals opened their eyes that had been closed in prayer at the same time.
…
The ball of godhood before the coffin of "Ivan" suddenly flew into his body, allowing the pure wings made of godhood to unfold on his back. They were purer than the angels, purer than the sun, and more brilliant than the stars!
His nose was raised and enlarged, in the style of the Schachran Empire. His eyes were gradually dyed in bright yellow. Behind his head, the brilliance of godhood seemed to have turned into faces. Some of them were Saint Ivan that he saw just now, and some were strangers that Lucien did not recognize.
Clap, clap, clap. The lids of three of the coffins were lifted by the corpses inside. Three men in white robes flew out and floated in the air. They fused with the ball of divinity above them and spread their wings of divinity.
The other coffin still did not move, but something seemed to have flown into the ball of divinity above it, making it grow and expand into an angel of light with golden eyes.
A record suddenly flowed in Lucien's heart. "… Ivan, Alexei, Nikon, Uriel, Geno, and Felix, the six Grand Cardinals, ambushed Wilfrid's demiplane magic tower. After a fierce battle, they killed him and destroyed his phylactery … Among them, Nikon was killed by Wilfrid …"
"When Grand Cardinal Geno besieged Wilfrid, he was attacked by the evil sorcerer before his death. The death energy and his soul could not be separated. Seven years later, he died in the Holy City …"
"… On that day, the eyes of the true God gazed at the Holy City. Ivan, Alexei, Uriel, Felix, and the seven saint cardinals, including Sauter, Anlester, and Sirius, stood out under the illumination of the golden light and accused Gregory of being the incarnation of the Lord of Hell …"
For a moment, the whole chamber was dazzling and sacred, forming a weird contrast with the monotonous black, white, and gray.
"Advanced Time Stop!"
"Storm Barrier!"
"Body of Death!"
"Legendary Transformation!"
"Puppet Golem!"
"Vengeful Gaze!"
Six spells echoed at the same time. Although it was unclear what exactly had happened, it was obviously not a good development and had to be stopped without any hesitation!
At this moment, "Saint Ivan" suddenly opened his arms, as if he were embracing the world and the filthy world.
Countless tiny angels immediately appeared around him and sang hymns of praise, similar to the "Hallelujah" that Lucien heard in his previous life.
A giant hole was broken in the monotonous black, white, and gray above, and the projection of Mountain Paradise appeared. The light poured into the body of "Saint Ivan" through the connection of the godhood light ball, making the godhood wings even more dazzling and splendid. His vibe soared quickly, surpassing Fernando and Douglas and approaching the level of a demigod!
"God's Grace"!
In such a change, time and space trembled, and the chamber was enshrouded in holiness. The legendary spells of Douglas, Lucien, and the rest of them were eliminated before they were launched!
"All the blasphemers shall be judged." Ivan, whose blue eyes were faintly yellow, took a step forward and solemnly pronounced the sentence. Holy light gushed out like a tide.
Lucien immediately sensed that the time and space around him had changed. He seemed to have left the World of Souls and entered the boundless cosmos. There were brilliant stars far away, but Fernando, Erica, and the rest of them could not sense it anymore.
Right then, Douglas' solemn and gentle voice echoed, "Gravity Cage."
The darkness of the void appeared, and the vast cosmos disappeared. It was not until then that Lucien realized that he had been moved to another place. There was no telling which palace he was in!
"Has Mr. President stopped 'Saint Ivan'?"
… …
In the sky above a palace in the Temple of Spirits, the objects and the walls couldn't withstand the horrifying pressure and were all twisted and shattered. However, in the darkness of the void, the bright wings made of godhood didn't seem to be affected at all.
"I'm told that you found the path to become a demigod through the general theory of relativity. I'm very curious." With a smile on his face, 'Saint Ivan' opened his right hand and pressed it softly, shattering the gravity cage.
"Paradise of Stars!" A weird-shaped celestial globe appeared in Douglas's hands. Brilliant spots of light glowed, casting the environment into a boundless, dark, and profound cosmos.
It was his unique legendary item that could create the defense of "Paradise of Stars" to improve himself and suppress the enemy.
In the meantime, his spiritual power slightly spread out. "You are not Ivan!"
It was exactly because Saint Ivan divided the Church that the Congress of Magic had the chance to rise. Therefore, Douglas and Fernando had dealt with Saint Ivan a lot. After a brief identification, they soon realized that something was wrong.
The wings made of godhood behind 'Saint Ivan' flapped softly, shattering the stars that fell from the defense. "Does it matter? We have been melted into one. When we are truly immortal, I will be Ivan, Ivan will be me, and I will be many people. "
"The inheritance of power?" Douglas, who had seen a lot, seemed to have grasped something. "No wonder only four coffins were opened. The last one belonged to Geno. He completely perished a few years after he returned to the Holy City. His power could only be inherited through certain items!"
"No wonder the proportion of saints in the North Church is so high!"
Saint Ivan smiled and did not waste any more time. He suppressed Douglas with the help of the defense with his strength close to that of a demigod.
… …
Inside the storm barrier, black tornadoes were raging, and countless enormous bolts of lightning struck down, shattering the intense air of death and the frozen black, white, and gray. Heat and coldness alternated, destroying everything nearby.
"Alexis, Uriel." There seemed to be a world of storms in Fernando's red eyes. Whoever he saw would suffer unimaginable horror. In his storm barrier, two white-robed men and the Lich King, who was ready to ambush at some point, were surrounded by his storm barrier.
Fernando was no stranger to the two white-robed saints. They were two of the three saints who followed Saint Ivan to split the Church. The other one was obviously Felix.
The black-haired and black-eyed 'Uriel' shook his head and did not say anything. He simply chanted in the language of the heavens.
"Light of Judgment!"
The wings made of godhood were closed and launched a light that seemed to have descended from the highest point of Mountain Paradise, judging everything in the world.
It was a pity that even though he and 'Alexis' had been melted with the ball of godhood, they were only close to the peak of legendary. Even when they worked together, together with the help of the Lich King, they were only on par with Fernando. They were caught in a fierce battle and even at a disadvantage.
The aftermath of their battle destroyed the palaces around them one after another, triggering the horrifying howls in the Temple of Spirits.
In another palace, the Lord of the Undead met 'Felix' and was slightly suppressed by him, who was temporarily melted with the ball of godhood. The rainbow dragon that Erica turned into and the angel of light that the ball of godhood turned into before 'Geno's' coffin were fighting fiercely in the sky and in the Lake of Evil Spirits. Although their levels were one level lower, she had the help of a legendary item, and her enemy had nothing. She could still hold on for now.
… …
"Even 'Saint Ivan' was only close to a demigod under 'God's Grace'. It was impossible for him to kill Mr. President. He was a man who fought the pope head-on and escaped unscathed. The best he could do was to be temporarily suppressed. When the effect of God's Grace was gone, it was hard to tell who would win." Lucien was not worried about Douglas, nor was he worried about his teacher. "My teacher is an out-and-out top legend. Even if he is attacked by the other four, he can still escape safely."
The noises when the ball of godhood was melted were so huge that Lucien could easily determine the enemy's strength. The angel of light was level-three legendary, and the other three saints were close to the peak of legendary. They could only suppress his teacher at best. Although his teacher would certainly be in danger when the four level-three legendary spectres came to reinforce him, his teacher was not an idiot who would watch the enemy's reinforcements come without doing anything.
"When you reach the peak of legendary, you can leave whenever you want when you are in danger, unless you are stalled by someone of the same level." Lucien remarked with mixed feelings. It was himself, Erica, and Klaus who were in danger. As a grand arcanist of the school of necromancy, even if Vicente were to die here, it was hard to tell when he would be resurrected.
Recalling everything that happened earlier, Lucien basically knew who was inside the coffins. "Five saints … It seems that the one whose coffin was not opened was Geno. He died a long time ago, so they dealt with him in a different way?"
… …
Inside the secret chamber, under the influence of 'Saint Ivan''s' God's Grace ', everybody had been separated or moved away. The place was caught in silence again.
Suddenly, the lid of 'Geno's' coffin was opened, and a man in a white robe who had bright red eyes crawled out slowly. The rotten muscles on his body were falling off, and brand-new flesh and skin grew out.
Looking at where 'Saint Ivan' and Douglas were fighting, he put on a mocking smile and walked to the entrance of the depths!
