Time gradually passed in the chaos. After the human outsiders descended, the Children of Nightmares and Children of Spiritual Realm descended one after another. The entire plane became more and more chaotic.
There were many of these outsiders, and most of them did not follow the rules. As soon as they descended, they began to fight for territory, clashing with the existing Descenders or the local natives.
And all of this had nothing to do with Lin Xiao. The Alfonso Kingdom itself was remote, located at the southernmost tip of the continent. Most of these Descenders descended directly from the three empires within the continent. A large group of Descenders descended in this region, fighting for territory.
Among them, the one that suffered the most was the Holy Church. Two of the three empires had basically broken away from the Holy Church's control. The Salnos Empire's faith in the Holy Church had completely collapsed, and was divided among the Descenders.
As the competition continued to expand, more and more Descenders descended. Many of them came from other regions of the Totem Continent.
Most of them came to divide the power of faith, but a small number came with other goals.
With so many people, there was not enough territory to divide. Naturally, some people set their sights on the peaceful Alfonso Kingdom, wanting to divide it into a few provinces.
But they were easily suppressed by the local forces of the various provinces before they could even begin. Many Descenders were directly killed.
But this still aroused the interest of many people. Even if many people were suppressed on the spot, there were still people who stubbornly came.
And all of this did not even reach Lin Xiao's side. Alfonso had already dealt with it.
Life Cathedral, Sanctuary.
"Phew, it's finally done!"
Looking at the golden runes on the surface of the spatial Divine Spark in front of him, Lin Xiao let out a sigh of relief.
It took him a full eight months to refine the runes on the surface of the Divine Spark. The next step was the most crucial one.
But before that, he temporarily left the cathedral. He first gathered all the core believers and gave them some instructions. Then, he wrote a letter to Lisa.
Not long after, Lisa rushed over. When she saw him, she was stunned. Her beautiful eyes sized him up and asked curiously.
"You … seem to be different."
He smiled and gestured for her to sit in front of him.
"It's a little different. It's also related to calling you here."
She sat in front of him and carefully sized him up.
"Have you become a Totem Overlord?"
He shook his head.
"No, but it's the last step. Before that, there's something I need to tell you."
"Okay, I'm listening."
Lin Xiao turned around and took out a small box with an exquisite appearance from his back. When he opened it, there was a golden statue emitting a milky white halo. Lisa's eyes lit up when she saw it.
"What a rich power of faith."
He pushed the lid of the box over and said:
"After a while, this plane will undergo an earth-shattering change. You better leave this plane immediately."
Her expression changed slightly.
"Don't tell me you want to prepare?"
He neither nodded nor shook his head.
"Don't ask too much. The Faith Power accumulated here is enough for you to use until you become a Totem Lord."
"Looks like it's true. Alright, I'll listen to you."
She didn't stand on ceremony. She put away the box and looked at him with her beautiful eyes. Suddenly, she smiled sweetly and leaned forward.
"Seeing that you still have a conscience, I'll let you feel good again."
.....
Watching the beautiful figure disappear, Lin Xiao recalled the wonderful feeling just now. He chuckled and withdrew his thoughts.
What needed to be dealt with was basically dealt with. The next step was to officially open up the Totem Domain.
After ordering the church to prepare, Lin Xiao returned to the Church of Life once again.
Calming himself down, he sank his consciousness into his sea of consciousness. An ancient tree of pure gold was moving up and down in his sea of consciousness. Circles of golden light surrounded the ancient tree and rippled up and down. It was ready to erupt.
In the past eight months, he didn't just refine the Divinity. He was also preparing to open up the domain. Now, he had already prepared to the last step.
Taking a deep breath, with a thought, the golden ripples of light that had been accumulating power for a long time suddenly expanded. Several streams of light merged into one, mixing with an invisible wave of vibration that gushed out from the ancient golden tree, forming a dark golden ripple of light that could tear apart space. With the ancient golden tree as the center, it slowly expanded.
Every time the dark golden light wave expanded, Lin Xiao felt that his soul and will were also expanding and becoming stronger.
This dark golden light wave that expanded with the ancient golden tree as the center was the edge of the newly opened domain. Wherever the dark golden light wave passed, it would be the newly opened domain.
The dark golden light wave was the power produced by the combination of his spiritual power and faith power. The more it expanded, the more the power would be consumed. Once it was exhausted, it would be the limit of the domain.
Lin Xiao didn't pay attention to the expansion of the dark golden light wave. His will was withdrawn when the light wave expanded to a certain extent. It fell on the Divinity that was wrapped up by the golden branches above the ancient golden tree. Taking a deep breath, with a thought, the last remaining seal rune began to burn.
As soon as this final seal rune burned, a wave of law far more powerful than before gushed out, surging in all directions like a tide. Very quickly, it passed through the dark golden wave of light that had opened up the domain and flew into the distance that could only be seen on the spiritual level.
From the outside, it looked like Lin Xiao, who was sitting on the metal array platform, had an invisible wave sweep past him and into the surrounding walls.
The moment this invisible wave appeared, in the center of the distant Holy Empire's capital, the Church of Holy Song, which was surrounded by milky white halos of faith power, suddenly roared with anger. Then, the endless faith power that filled the air above the Holy Empire gathered in the center of the church, condensing into an awe-inspiring angel of light, holding a huge sword of light and pointing into the distance.
"Heresy, Holy War!"
The powerful Holy Empire flared up because of this sentence. As the empire where the Holy Church's headquarters was located, the Emperor of the Holy Empire was the highest authority in the empire and also the Pope of the Holy Church.
After entering the Holy Cathedral and personally communicating with the Holy God, the Pope issued the highest level of Holy War in the history of the Holy Church.
At the same time, he issued a shocking news to all the forces of the continent:
"A heresy is about to ascend to godhood!"
The entire plane was shocked by this news, and there was an uproar of discussion.
"You're saying that someone is about to become a totem lord in this plane?"
One of the new human leaders, Xiang Lei, looked at his subordinate in surprise and asked:
"Do you know who it is?"
The subordinate pinched his chin and nodded:
"Although the Holy Church hasn't confirmed who it is, it's pointing to the south of the continent, and the strongest force in the south is most likely Rolle who occupied the Alfonso Kingdom. If there's no accident, it should be him."
"You said before that this person is the strongest descender in this plane. He plundered a kingdom's thousand years of accumulated faith power and occupied another kingdom. As long as there are enough resources, he can indeed become a totem lord very quickly."
"Oh, it's really a difficult choice."
He raised his head and looked to the south, rubbing his chin with his hand, his eyes flickering. No one knew what he was thinking.
The entire plane flared up because of this announcement. Whether it was the human descenders, the Nightmare Children, or the Children of Spiritual Realm, they were all shocked by this news.
While others were discussing whether they should participate, whether to watch the show or not, the Kingdom of Finland and the Kingdom of Sardinia at the border of Alfonso responded to the call of the Holy Church and declared war on the Alfonso Kingdom.
The garrisons at the border immediately sent a large number of spies into the Alfonso Kingdom, but they quickly disappeared.
The Alfonso Kingdom didn't attack, nor did they retreat. The border remained the same.
Half a month later, with the help of the Holy Church, the two kingdoms gathered an army of over twenty thousand people at an unprecedented speed and agreed to meet at the border of the two kingdoms. At the same time, the armies of the Nightmare Children and the Children of Spiritual Realm also responded to the call of the Holy War and gathered there.
Although they were descenders, as long as they didn't preach, they wouldn't be rejected.
However, this wasn't the most radical. Outside Dale City, a caravan from abroad was slowly approaching Dale City. A dozen Children of Spiritual Realm dressed as merchants looked at the tall city walls and squinted to hide the light in their eyes. One of the Children of Spiritual Realm said in a low voice:
"After entering the city, first go to the palace and kill the king to create chaos, then assassinate that human descender. He's not the Totem Lord yet, so he can't resist our siege."
The caravan followed the flow of people and slowly approached the city gate. The soldiers at the gate inspected them one by one. When it was almost their turn, one of the Children of Spiritual Realm suddenly saw a small pavilion at the gate. A few priests of the Church of Life and Wisdom were standing in the pavilion. One of the priests was staring at them, and they had a bad feeling.
Soon, it was their turn. Before the soldiers could inspect them, the priest stood up and whispered a few words to his companions before walking over. A group of priests and knights of the Church walked over with unfriendly expressions.
How could the dozen Children of Spiritual Realm not understand that they had been exposed? They were quite puzzled, but they couldn't explain it. They turned around and looked around. One of them had a vicious look in his eyes as he said:
"Kill all the people at the gate and retreat."
As he spoke, he let out a low roar. His entire body rapidly expanded and turned into a small giant with dark green skin. His two arms rapidly expanded and branched, turning into a dozen twenty to thirty meter long tentacles that flew out and wrapped around the surrounding civilians who were shocked.
The priests were also shocked when they saw this. Someone immediately knocked on the city gate's gong and shouted:
"There's a demon eating people, alert!"
Hearing this, the Child of Spiritual Realm who attacked became even angrier. He stretched out an arm, and seven or eight curled tentacles stabbed towards the priest.
"Shield of Faith!"
A layer of light shield formed. The seven or eight tentacles hit the light shield with a muffled sound, and the huge force directly sent the priest flying.
Another Child of Spiritual Realm took off the black cloth covering his eyes. His eyes burned with fire, and two thin pillars of fire shot out dozens of meters and hit another soldier. The flames directly melted the soldier's armor, but another priest immediately cast a Shield of Faith to block the attack.
"Divine Art?"
The Child of Spiritual Realm's dark green face showed a trace of surprise:
"How is this possible?"
There was a trace of haze in his heart, and he had a bad feeling.
As soon as he finished his thought, he heard a huge tremor coming from the city, like the sound of human footsteps. Then, an incomparably huge head appeared from above.
