The red moon is in the sky, filled with blood.
At this moment, an ominous atmosphere has enveloped the entire fashion capital.
Initially, only insects and rats in the sewers were affected, and they burst open the manhole covers and swarmed out.
Then, the pigeons and other birds in the city became agitated and began to hit the windows like crazy, break the glass, and attack people.
In the end, even the residents of the city were affected. Their eyes became red, their hearts became irritable, and their killing instincts were even awakened, and they began to fight each other.
Couples, brothers, sisters, friends...
No matter how close the relationship is on weekdays, at this moment they both want to kill each other, as if there is some unforgettable hatred.
"Melissa, what are you doing?"
Sofia, who was still able to maintain her senses, screamed, and saw her best friend Melissa rushing over like a mad dog at this moment, opening her mouth and biting her throat.
Ye Qingzhou raised his hand to knock her out.
Seeing her friend fall, Sofia quickly hugged her with a frightened expression: "Melissa!"
"Don't worry, she's fine, at least for now."
Ye Qingzhou looked at Sophia curiously: "You are just an ordinary person, how can you be immune to the influence of blood evil?"
He opened his eyes and wanted to peer into Sophia's mind, but found nothing.
At the same time, streaks of bloody light rose into the sky from churches one after another. It was obvious that for more than a hundred years, the Red Moon Order had been using its own funds and influence to penetrate into every aspect of the country in France.
The entire fashionable city was built according to the will of the Red Moon Order. Under the feet of the two million residents was an unimaginably huge flesh and blood formation.
"What the hell is going on!"
Vivian walked up to Ye Qingzhou with a solemn expression: "What do you know?"
"I know nothing, but I can see."
Ye Qingzhou pointed to his eyes. He has heavenly eyes and divine eyes, so he can see through everything and even observe destiny: "I dislike the Red Moon Order very much, so I am happy to help you destroy their plans."
< br>
As the saying goes, revenge does not last overnight. Since the Red Moon Order has been offended, it is natural to strangle the enemy in the cradle.
No matter what the Red Moon Order wants to do by launching such a big battle, as long as it is something the enemy wants to do, they must resolutely oppose it and destroy it.
"Okay."
Vivian stared at Ye Qingzhou deeply. She didn't trust Ye Qingzhou very much, but her first priority right now was to destroy the Red Moon Order's plan to sacrifice the whole city with blood.
Even Bakker, who regarded Europa as his enemy, chose to cooperate with Section 13 of the Europa Secret Service in order to save the Saint.
"According to the information I investigated, the saint was brought here to be used as a sacrifice."
When Bucker said this, he had an expression of gritted teeth, obviously hating the mastermind behind the whole thing to the extreme: "The Saint is the only bloodline of the Night God left in the world. The stinky bats of the Red Moon Order are here. Defiling our pious belief in the night god! ”
Ye Qingzhou's eyes flashed, and he immediately understood that the saints of the Night Order were probably, like Huang Liwen, a special bloodline left behind by ancient emperor-level powerhouses.
"Oops!"
Delphine came over with a sniper rifle and said to everyone: "I know what the Red Moon Order is plotting. They want to conduct a divine ascension ceremony!"
"Ascension ceremony?"
"Or to put it another way, in ancient times, the ritual of ascending to the divine level through blood sacrifice was often called the Praise of Blood. This is a sacrificial ritual that can sublimate one's own spiritual essence."
< br>
Delphine, who comes from the Holy Arms Army, is obviously very knowledgeable. She has obtained many ancient secrets about witchcraft sacrifices within the alchemy school.
After all, alchemy was separated from the early witchcraft and potion science. Although it specializes in the refining of elements today, it still retains many contents of sacrificial rituals.
After all, even alchemy often still requires the help of the power of gods.
Delphine continued: "Descendants of the Night God are born with divinity in their bodies, and the Saints of the Night of each generation are the individuals who have inherited the most divinity. The Red Moon Order intends to use a large-scale flesh and blood refining process to Cheng Lai catalyzes the divinity in the Saintess of the Night, and when its growth reaches a critical value, kill the Saint of the Night, seize the activated divinity in her body, and become a god!"
"You know too much."
Cardinal Morris, wearing a red robe, appeared in front of everyone with two attendants: "My God is about to ascend to the throne, and I will never let you ruin this plan."
"Bishop Morris!"
Vivian held the knight's gun in her hand and looked angrily: "You actually betrayed the faith of God and joined the Red Moon Order?"
"No, this is God's will."
Morris's eyes were calm, and he even put on a very pious posture on his face. He tried to recruit Ye Qingzhou and others with a fanatical tone: "God said that everything is empty and everything is allowed. Why don't you join in and join me? Participate in this grand event together?”
"Not interested."
Ye Qingzhou has never believed in God: "I like to control my own destiny instead of being a dog to others, even if it is a god."
"The school of alchemy pursues knowledge and explores mysteries. God is just a forerunner on the road to truth. He should be feared, but human free will cannot be surrendered."
Delphina clenched the sniper rifle in her hand, her eyes firm and persistent.
The remaining Vivian and Bucker also have firm beliefs, and it is impossible for them to temporarily convert to the evil god of the Red Moon Order.
"It's such a shame."
Morris waved his hand and immediately ordered decisively: "Kill them."
"Yes! Lord Bishop!"
Cardinal Simon and Cardinal Deacon Thomas responded in unison.
Immediately, a large number of Black Iron-level Holy Blood Knights poured into the middle hall from all directions, surrounding Ye Qingzhou and the others, obviously planning to catch turtles in a urn.
"Kill!"
The two holy blood knights holding heavy hammers suddenly swung their weapons and hit Ye Qingzhou hard.
The dull sound of the wind is full of oppression. A hammer weighing hundreds of kilograms is enough to demolish a house, let alone human bones. In the hands of two black iron-level holy blood knights with big muscles and round waists, this thing is a standout. Power works miracles.
Dang~
Ye Qingzhou, who was wearing a thin windbreaker, stood on the spot. After receiving the opponent's attack forcefully, he was unscathed. He even felt a little disgusted: "With such a weak attack, is it because you haven't eaten?"
When the two Holy Blood Knights saw that they were being so despised, they immediately swung the big hammers in their hands with great force, and continued to explode with force, launching attacks like a violent storm.
Dang Dang Dang Dang...
Ye Qingzhou's head, shoulders, chest and back were all smashed by his opponent. Unfortunately, even Ye Qingzhou's golden body could not be broken. Instead, it helped to recharge his heaven and earth oven.
Zheng~
The moment the Heavenly Punishment Sword was unsheathed, the sword light split into nine parts, blooming into a flower of cold sword energy.
The nine sword energy mad dragons immediately soared into the sky, roared towards the sky, and charged in all directions, like a torrent pouring down, vast and unstoppable.
Everywhere along the way, the tables, chairs and benches in the church were swept into the torrent of sword energy and shattered to pieces.
The swarming Holy Blood Knights were even more knocked to pieces, swaying here and there.
When the sword power was gone, the entire middle hall had been swept away by Ye Qingzhou.
"Look at the sword."
Ye Qingzhou's figure flashed, and before he could speak, the sword light had already arrived.
The Heavenly Punishment Sword was as fast as lightning and as powerful as thunder, and it struck at the head of Cardinal Morris.
Dang~
A scepter made of mithril caught Ye Qingzhou's sword. On the top of the scepter was a bright red gemstone, which was as bright as blood and emitted a powerful aura.
Zila~
The scepter burst out with a powerful red current, which actually penetrated Ye Qingzhou's golden body defense and reached his internal organs, making his muscles and bones numb.
At the same time, two large hands made of rocks suddenly grew out of the hard ground. They clasped their hands together like swatting mosquitoes, trying to swat Ye Qingzhou into a puddle of minced meat.
Snap~
A violent sound erupted under the slap of the huge stone palm, shattering the surrounding decorative stained glass.
Ye Qingzhou pulled away in time and flew back, narrowly avoiding the blow. Then he looked solemnly at the scepter in Morris' hand.
Especially the blood-red gem at the top of the scepter.
"Alchemical creation, the Philosopher's Stone?"
"This is the truth from our Lord."
Morris held the scepter calmly, as if he was holding the truth.
The Philosopher's Stone is the supreme creation of the alchemy school. It is the 'all-purpose elixir' that can distort the laws and realize all wishes. It can turn stones into gold, achieve immortality, and control the transformation of elements at will... In a sense, holding the Philosopher's Stone Even though Maurice, who was born in Stone, only had the cultivation level of Peak Silver, he already had the combat power that was almost that of a Golden Martial Saint.
"Young man, you are very strong and have extraordinary talents. And I am always very tolerant of geniuses. As long as you are willing to convert to my Lord, I can forgive you for the mistakes you have committed."
< br>
"Really? You're really magnanimous."
After Ye Qingzhou devoured and transformed the blood-thunder evil spirit that invaded his body and wandered around, he attacked Morris again: "Give me the philosopher's stone in your hand, and I will agree to convert."
Zheng~
The trembling sword edge chopped off two huge stone palms, and a biting cold light enveloped Morris's body.
The smile on Morris's face disappeared instantly, and his eyes turned cold: "If you are stubborn, then try what it feels like to be crushed by the truth."
The scepter lightly scratched the ground, and the hard stone slab suddenly became softer than running water. What was even more incredible was that the atomic arrangement of the rock changed, from stone to shiny metal.
Hundreds of metal spikes pierced out from the ground and stabbed fiercely at Ye Qingzhou, as if they were going to pierce him into a sieve.
"Huh?"
Ye Qingzhou felt a strange power at the top of the metal spikes, and his mind frantically warned. Apparently, this power was enough to penetrate the protection of the golden body and pose a threat to him.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
With his mind spinning, Ye Qingzhou chose to seek stability, and immediately switched from offense to defense, waving the Heavenly Punishment Sword in his hand to slash at the metal spikes coming from all directions.
The sword edge turned into wings and swept across all directions. With a sharp clanging sound, it cut off thousands of metal spikes, showing the ultimate in superb swordsmanship.
"Let's do it together!"
Seeing that Ye Qingzhou was in a tough fight, Vivian immediately called everyone to come down to help and joined the battle.
She and Buckle fought to the left and right towards Morris's location.
"You bastard! Where is the saint?"
The snow-white scimitar drew a gorgeous and cold moon arc and slashed hard at Morris, but was blocked by Cardinal Simon with his bare hands.
His white-gloved hands are tougher than steel, so he is also called Steel Hands.
On the other side, Vivian was also stopped by Cardinal Deacon Thomas. The opponent was known as Iron Legs. His legs could be kicked out from incredible angles. They were so powerful that they could even kick through the deck of a warship.
Both Simon and Doma have high-level silver-level strength. They are undoubtedly strong opponents for Vivian and Bucker, and it is difficult to win for a while.
"Delphina!"
"Got it!"
In fact, without Vivian's reminder, Delphine had already set up her sniper rifle and pointed it at Morris.
Bang~
The alchemy bullet came out instantly, and the metal bullet engraved with magic runes gathered the power of the four elements of earth, water, wind, and fire, which could be freely combined to form various targeted special tactics.
And the bullet that Delphina shot was an earth-based gravity bullet!
The damage is not high, but the control is extremely strong!
Dang~
The orange alchemy bullet was blocked by the invisible barrier on Morris's body. However, the shackles of the earth's gravity were invisible and qualityless, and it was a rule.
Soon, the power of the earth penetrated the protection of the barrier and acted on Morris.
His whole body seemed to be bound by shackles, and Morris was unable to move for a moment.
What a great opportunity!
Ye Qingzhou immediately activated his sword energy without hesitation and began to use his ultimate moves.
"The universe depends on the hands, and everything depends on the body."
"Nature is human nature."
"People's hearts are also machines."
Ye Qingzhou's mind at this moment merged with the sword in his hand, urging the killing method carried by the Tianxing Sword.
In the sword of Xuanyuan Sword, the huge power of thought energy immediately passed through Ye Qingzhou's sword heart and poured into the Tianxing Sword. The power of thinking energy gathered by the hundreds of millions of creatures in the great world of Cang Yuan is vast and unparalleled.
Once this sword is released, the sword energy is like a torrent of humanity, endless and unrivaled!
The sky sends murderous intent, and the stars change places!
The earth sends murderous intent, dragons and snakes rise from the ground!
Human beings unleash murderous intent, causing heaven and earth to turn upside down!
The harmony of heaven and man establishes the foundation of all transformations.
Zheng~
The Heavenly Punishment Sword is dazzling, and everything between heaven and earth is silent. Only the sound of the sword is clanging and roaring, and the cold murderous intention fills the hearts of everyone, making people's hearts palpitate.
As soon as this sword comes out, everything will wither!
The extremely dazzling sword energy is condensed on the sword's edge. Even the Philosopher's Stone with a trace of mythical properties can't resist this sword move that cuts through everything.
Click~
The absolute barrier on Morris' body was directly chopped into pieces by the Heavenly Punishment Sword, and he was also beheaded by Ye Qingzhou's sword, and his head fell to the ground.
But the strange thing is that the fallen head quickly rolled back to Morris's head, and the flesh and blood were connected, and it was placed back tightly.
After twisting his neck, Maurice's expression became ferocious with anger: "You mortals, how dare you resist God's will."
The scepter was struck hard, and the violent power was immediately released, knocking Ye Qingzhou and others flying out of the church.
The Saint-Etienne Cathedral, which had just been rebuilt a few years ago, was turned into ruins in the blink of an eye under the impact of this terrible force.
The collapsed building completely buried Sophia and Melissa, but Ye Qingzhou could no longer care about saving people.
"Can't this kill you?"
Ye Qingzhou had a look of surprise on his face, then he opened his eyes, used his xiangshu thinking, and finally understood the reason: "It's the Philosopher's Stone. This ultimate creation of the alchemy school can actually re-engrave your soul and make you die." Resurrection'.
The sword just now was the killing sword among the swords that carried the Tao, killing all things. Therefore, Ye Qingzhou not only cut off Morris's head, but also killed his soul.
So Maurice is actually dead, and what is resurrected now is just a copy with the same memory and personality.
"Hey, he seems to be able to be resurrected indefinitely. How do I fight him?"
Ye Qingzhou dodged, avoiding the two disintegration rays fired by Morris, and asked Vivian and Delphine behind him shamelessly.
After all, he was not familiar with the specific functions of the Philosopher's Stone, but Vivian and Delphine definitely knew.
Especially Delphine, who comes from the alchemy school of the French Holy Armament Army.
And Delphine really had a way. She raised her hand and gave Simon and Doma another shot, creating a fighting opportunity for Vivian and Bucker, and then she said to Ye Qingzhou: "You shouldn't kill him." Instead of cutting off his head, Maurice’s power comes from the Philosopher’s Stone! Without the Philosopher’s Stone, he is no longer immortal!”
"Hmph!"
Morris, who was holding the Philosopher's Stone, apparently 'heard' the transmission of faith between the two of them. He raised his hand and blasted Delphine with another cracking ray: "You talk too much!"
Delphine, who was standing on the roof, rolled on the spot, but was still hit by Morris's disintegration ray, causing atomic level disintegration.
And this cracking is still spreading to her body!
Even the current Ye Qingzhou cannot withstand atomic level disintegration. After all, the golden body's defense has its limits, not to mention this kind of destruction at the legal level.
Delphine gritted her teeth and quickly tore off her coat, revealing a large area of beautiful scenery.
"I'll create a chance for you to take action!"
"Okay."
Ye Qingzhou held the hilt of the sword tightly, but his body was extremely relaxed, and his eyes were always firmly locked on the target.
Among the four silver masters present, only he could break through Morris's mental force field.
"Cover me!"
Morris panicked and quickly called Simon and Doma to his side, obviously hoping that they would take the bullet for him.
But Vivian and Bucker would not give him a chance, and they tried their best to entangle Simon and Doma so that they could not escape.
Delphine raised the sniper rifle in her hand, held her breath, and locked eyes with Morris through the eight-fold mirror. Finally, she pulled the trigger.
Bang~
The orange-yellow alchemical bullets were driven by gunpowder and spun out of the gun chamber, shooting towards Morris at seven times the speed of sound.
"No!"
In panic, Morris fired several disintegration rays, but all of them missed. In the end, he was still hit by the bullet containing the earth element, and his body was restrained.
At this moment, Ye Qingzhou's sword moved.
Zheng~
The sharp edge of the Heavenly Punishment Sword cut through the air, sending out a roar that resounded through the sky. (End of chapter)
