"You..."
Looking at Adil, who had suddenly appeared, the old man was shocked and wanted to say something.
A silver longsword swung down from where he stood, unleashing an unparalleled sword aura in an instant.
Streaks of silver light flickered on the spot, enveloping everything.
The place was enveloped by the silver sword aura and nothing could be seen in the surroundings. There was only pure life energy flashing, enveloping the old man.
The boundless sword aura exploded and boundless power filled the place. A hole was formed in the place and everything seemed to have disappeared in an instant. Only the pure spiritual energy was rippling and charging forward.
The old man's aura disappeared completely in an instant, being covered by the aura of the golden semi-god artifact.
At the most crucial moment of Adil's attack, the old man made a prompt decision and used the power of the golden semi-god artifact to conceal himself, enveloping all the power that Adil had revealed.
Thereafter, everything before him started to turn into nothingness.
The power of rules was distorted and all matter was destroyed layer by layer by the sharp sword aura. Starting from the most basic structure, there was no longer any trace left.
This was an attack aimed directly at the source. Under Adil's sword, no matter how sturdy one was, no matter how tenacious one was, it would be directly crushed from the most basic structure. Even if it was a cell or a drop of blood, it would be directly cut off without leaving a trace.
It could be said that based on the power of this attack alone, no one present could take it head-on.
There was no doubt that the old man before him couldn't either.
The power of the golden semi-god artifact was roaring. At that moment, the golden semi-god artifact seemed to have sensed the terrifying power contained in the attack. The essence of the god within it was awakening and roaring.
Majestic power was awakening and terrifying divine power appeared on the golden semi-god artifact.
A golden figure appeared faintly, turning into the strongest barrier and blocking Adil's attack.
Thereafter, the two forces started to collide.
Everything was close to nothingness.
The place before him turned into nothingness. In the surroundings, a crack in the space appeared. It was the node that had been slashed out by the attack. At that moment, it appeared and spread in all directions continuously.
"Did it work?"
The expressions of Cudoni and the others were somewhat shaken. At this moment, they looked at the sword attack that Adil had displayed with some concern in their eyes.
Without a doubt, this strike was extremely important.
As the leader of the Sun King's priests, the importance of the elder was self-evident.
Not only was he the strongest person on the battlefield after Adil, but he was also the leader of the Sun King Priests. No matter in terms of status or strength, he was undoubtedly the strongest.
It could be said that as long as the opponent was dealt with, the battle would be more than half over.
Without the other party's control, the Sun Divine Weapon in the void would also lose its controller, and this battle would directly end.
As for the counterattack of the Church of the Sun King, that was a matter for another time.
With the power that the Dark Church had accumulated over the years, they could just hide in the deep mountains and old forests. Relying on the divine power of the Dark Lord, no matter how strong the other party was, could they still find them?
I can't beat you, but can't I hide from you?
In front of them, under everyone's gaze, the faint fluorescent light gradually disappeared, and the existence within was gradually revealed.
In everyone's sight, the figure of the elder was gradually revealed.
He was still alive. After taking Adil's attack head-on, he did not die. His vitality was extremely tenacious.
However, there was no doubt that even if he was not dead at this moment, he was in a very bad state after taking a blow from Adil head-on.
His body began to crack, and there were dense wounds all over his body. It was as if he had been cut by thousands of knives in an instant, and there was not a single part of his body that was intact.
Light golden divine blood flowed continuously from his body, and at this moment, his aura suddenly declined to the extreme. It had originally been close to the peak of the Mythical realm, but it had fallen back to the Legendary-realm.
His power, which had been forcibly enhanced by the enhancement of the Demigod weapon, was completely reduced to its original state. At this moment, he could barely maintain the power of the peak of the Legendary-realm.
This power was still very strong, and it could be said that even if he was severely injured, he could still suppress 99% of the people present.
However, facing Adil in front of him, this bit of power was like throwing an egg against a stone. It was no longer possible to confront him head-on like before.
In front of him, the elder clearly understood this logic.
He panted heavily and raised his head to look at Adil in front of him. His eyes were deep, and no one knew what he was trying to express. "You actually …"
A hoarse and weak voice appeared on the spot.
The elder looked very weak at this moment. At this moment, even his voice had become extremely hoarse, and he was no longer as confident as he had been before.
At this moment, his face was still full of disbelief.
Perhaps he had not expected Adil to be able to do this, and forcefully knock him down from mid-air, causing him to end up like this.
If word of this battle were to spread, Adil's name was destined to spread all over the continent.
A priest whose strength had reached the peak of the Legendary-realm, the Sun King, had actually been knocked down by Adil in a head-on confrontation, and directly fell to the ground.
Even if this had happened since ancient times, it would still be a major event that could be recorded in the history books.
It could be said that after this night, Adil's name on the continent would definitely spread even further.
"If you leave now, there's still room for negotiation …"
On the other side, Cudoni slowly walked forward and looked at the weak elder as he spoke.
He did not want to push things too far.
This was not because he did not want to, but from a rational point of view.
The elder in front of him was a priest of the Church of the Sun King. Once he was killed, it would mean that the Church of the Sun King would not rest until one of them was dead.
Although the current situation seemed to be the same, it was different after all.
Even if it was the same, there was still a difference in power.
As a church left behind by the Supreme God, the Church of the Sun had existed on the continent for a long time, and the number of enemies it had set up was equally large, and the Dark Church was not the only one.
If the elder in front of him was not killed, the Church of the Sun King would be hostile to the Dark Church, but under the current circumstances, it would be impossible for them to send too many forces to suppress the Dark Church.
However, if the elder in front of him was killed, the situation would be different.
Killing the priest of the Sun King was the biggest provocation.
Even for the sake of its own reputation, the Church of the Sun King would inevitably not rest until the Dark Church was dead. At that time, the forces they would send would be vastly different from before.
At this juncture where the Dark Lord had successfully recovered, Cudoni could not take this risk.
After all, at the juncture where the Dark Lord had successfully recovered, the most important thing at the moment was to let the Dark Lord grow again and restore its former strength.
When the Dark Lord completely recovered and regained its former strength, everything would naturally be easy to deal with.
At that time, a true god would descend, and there would naturally be no need to worry about the attitude of the Church of the Sun King.
But now, there was still a need to worry about it.
The elder slowly raised his head.
He looked at Cudoni in the distance and listened to him for a long time without saying anything.
Rationally, he understood that it was the best choice for him to leave at this moment.
At this moment, as he was defeated by Adil, the power of the priest of the Sun King had fallen to the limit.
Without the control of the high priest, the power of the Divine Sun Weapon would be further reduced. In the end, it would probably be suppressed by the Dark Eye that was continuously recovering.
On the battlefield below, the situation was the same.
He was not a match for Adil, and this was the case when he received all kinds of blessings. Not to mention now that his aura had fallen to the limit.
Behind him, there were more than a dozen Sun Priests who had reached the Legendary-level, but they were nothing to Adil.
Given his strength, it would not take long for him to kill these Sun Priests.
It would probably be much easier than chopping vegetables and watermelons.
At the very least, chopping watermelons and vegetables would require a kitchen knife.
If Adil wanted to kill them, it would not be so troublesome at all. It would just be a matter of moving his fingers.
"Alright …"
His expression was calm. At this moment, he sighed and finally said, "Let's go …"
As the elder's voice fell, there was some movement among the dozen Sun Priests.
However, due to their good training, they did not say anything. They just looked at the elder in front of them in silence and silently followed his decision.
A young man in a golden robe, who looked no different from the other priests, walked forward and helped the elder.
"This time, it's my loss …"
The elder looked ahead at Cudoni and the baby in Sylner's arms. At this moment, he sighed deeply and felt a little disappointed.
The reincarnation of the Dark Lord was very important to the Sun King Church.
Not only was it the first deity that had descended in this era, but it was also a deity that was involved in the Light Domain.
Originally, if they had obtained the reincarnation of the Dark Lord, the process of the Sun King's recovery would have been greatly accelerated.
But now, with the interference of the Legendary-level Knight, this plan had undoubtedly fallen through.
In fact, it was unlikely that it would happen in the future.
With a powerful Knight who had reached the peak of the Legendary-level, anyone who wanted to find trouble with the Dark Church would have to think about whether their claws were strong enough or not.
Thinking of this, the elder could not help but sigh in his heart. At this moment, he felt a strong sense of disappointment.
Puff …
A soft sound came from where he stood. That sound was like the crisp sound of a longsword piercing into flesh.
The elder was stunned, and subconsciously looked at his chest.
He saw that a golden longsword had pierced through his chest, and there was still light golden blood on it.
"This is …"
A faint pain came from his chest.
Feeling this pain and the power that was continuously disappearing from his body, the elder turned around with some disbelief and looked to the side.
At this moment, standing beside him was the golden-robed priest who had come from behind and helped him.
"Kaido, you …"
