Chapter 271 Promotion! Fivefold destiny!
Evening.
When the sun gradually sank and a faint trace of pale blue moonlight emerged from the dim sky, "martial law" was once again imposed inside the church.
This time, no one is allowed to approach within a hundred meters of the Holy Office. Maiyev even received the task of guarding the entrance to the Holy Office from the inner courtyard, and carefully guarded it with carefully selected clergy.
In the Holy Office, Luo Xiu came as scheduled and met with "Senior Deacon" Hubert here.
"I am ready, Lord Hubert."
Luo Xiu solemnly said to Hubert: "I have felt that I have resonated with the 'spiritual sea' again, and I can touch that 'door' again."
He really has made all the preparations. According to the requirements in his memory for being promoted to the upper-level hidden profession of "Judge of Holy Glory", he has now fulfilled all requirements.
And he has received all the kill rewards in the mailbox. Through this, he has obtained a "rare" quality expertise-"Tuner", which is a skill that speeds up the natural recovery of mana and shortens the skill. A rare feat with a cooldown.
The reward for killing the "Pissou" was not reserved until after the promotion to the "Fifth Level of Destiny", thus avoiding the probability debuff caused by the level gap.
An expression of surprise appeared on Hubert's face. He did not expect that the time for Luo Xiu to choose "promotion" would come so quickly.
But he quickly accepted it, and with a slight nod, he once again pushed the box containing the "Obsidian Key" on the table in front of Luo Xiu.
"Open it, Luo Xiu." Hubert said, "Take out your 'Obsidian Key' and I will protect you."
"Okay." Luo Xiu nodded and opened the black box as Hubert said.
A deep, dim light shines out from the black box.
Placed in the box is a black key that emits crystal-like reflection.
It bursts out with pure breath, and its dark appearance cannot conceal its rich spirituality.
Luo Xiu solemnly took out the "Obsidian Key" from the box and felt that the spar-like surface was not as cold as it looked, and even had a hint of warmth exuding from it.
"Then, I will enter the 'Spiritual Sea', Lord Hubert."
Luo Xiu solemnly said to Hubert: "Everything from now on will be left to you."
After seeing Hubert nodding lightly, Luo Xiu opened the mission panel and opened the details page of the promotion mission [Road to the Saint].
All mission objectives have been achieved. [Promotion Mission: Path of the Saint (Nightmare Difficulty)] is now in the "Complete" state and can be settled at any time.
"——Mission accomplished."
Luo Xiu gave clear instructions in his mind.
At the same time that Luo Xiu was giving instructions to complete, the panel in front of him suddenly glowed with dazzling golden light.
The light became brighter and brighter, constantly changing in Luo Xiu's field of vision, and at the same time, new text content emerged.
[Completed the promotion mission: Path of the Saint (Nightmare Difficulty)]
[You have completed a fifth-level ‘Altar Ceremony’, and received enough ‘moment’ of divinity from the ceremony, and obtained all ‘Brilliant Judgment’ attribute values increased. You use this to prove that you are qualified to go further. 】
[The task is being settled...]
[Get completion reward: basic experience +120000, skill slot +10, skill slot +10, free attribute point +50]
[You will meet the ‘Obsidian Gate’]
【……】
When Luo Xiu browsed to the end, the light on it suddenly bloomed, completely engulfing Luo Xiu's figure.
Under the shining golden light, Luo Xiu's consciousness became trance-like.
He felt that his consciousness was being separated from his body under the influence of some external force.
And a vast and boundless "spiritual sea" is gently wrapping him.
The warm feeling, like being in a swaddling body, made Luo Xiu slowly close his eyes.
…
When Luo Xiu opened his eyes again, he saw the familiar scene in front of him.
The deep void at the end of his field of vision, and the star-like scenery in the distance... The long steps leading to nowhere appeared in front of him, guiding him to the depths.
Four months later, he once again came to the "spiritual sea" of [Glory].
He heard solemn chanting floating in the air from afar, and a pure, surging white light floated up and down in front of Luo Xiu.
Sometimes it floated up the long steps, and sometimes it floated back and lightly touched Luo Xiu's body.
Is that some kind of "guiding" glow? This little thing didn't appear a few times before... Luo Xiu thought to himself, and followed the light group up the long steps.
The chanting that reached Luo Xiu's ears became clearer and clearer. At the same time, on both sides of the gradually rising long steps, there were still vague white figures kneeling towards the deepest point.
They wear different clothes, but they all symbolize the identity of [Glory] believers. They prostrated and knelt down, and kept chanting vague prayers in their mouths:
"——I pray for Zhuri Xu for a moment..."
"——I would like to ask Zhu Rixu for a moment..."
"——I would like to ask Zhu Rixu for a moment..."
They looked pious, but they only repeated this prayer.
When they passed through the believers and reached the middle of the long steps, these white figures disappeared, and the vague sound of pious prayers quickly faded away.
But the solemn chanting was still there. When Luo Xiu went deeper towards the end, the white figures on both sides appeared again.
But they no longer have the appearance of "believers" - they have wings on their backs, and their faces and postures are flawless. They may wear loose holy robes, or shining holy armor, or they may be naked, showing only the purest and most beautiful appearance. Holy form...
——Those are all “angels”! It's a "two-winged angel"!
It's just that they are not real "winged angels", but just statues standing here. They hold various weapons blessed with glorious divinity and point in the only direction - this At the end of the long stairs, there is the "Obsidian Gate" that seals the power of the fifth level of [Glory].
When the singing voice reached Luo Xiu's ears, it became more ethereal and clearer. Faintly, at the end of Luo Xiu's field of vision, he had seen the "door".
The door made of obsidian stone stood there quietly. Golden or white light continued to emerge from behind the door, and Luo Xiu could clearly feel that the power of "sainthood" he was pursuing was constantly surging behind that door.
…
Under the divine guidance, Luo Xiu finally came to the "Obsidian Gate".
The long steps behind him gradually disappeared, and the sacred chanting also fell silent. In the entire "spiritual sea", it seemed that only the "Obsidian Gate" and the figure of Luo Xiu in front of the door were left.
The "door" that looked like it was carved from a whole piece of black crystal, like all the previous "extraordinary doors", had a simple lock hanging on it.
After standing in front of the door for a while, Luo Xiu took out the "Obsidian Key" from his arms.
The moment he handed the "Obsidian Key" into the lock of the "Obsidian Gate", Luo Xiu's eyes suddenly glowed with light.
【……】
[You have opened the obsidian door and glimpsed the world behind the door. 】
[You have lost the "Obsidian Key"]
【……】
In front of Luo Xiu, new content suddenly popped up on his panel.

【……】
A long list of these new contents was refreshed on the panel in front of Luo Xiu.
And at the moment when the thick obsidian door slowly opened, the surging and sacred spirituality sealed inside instantly spurted out from the gap, completely engulfing Luo Xiu.
The spiritual surge like a huge wave swept over and slapped him, and the surge was more violent than the previous time.
The surrounding scenes gradually faded and disappeared in Luo Xiu's eyes, leaving only the bright light emitting from the "Obsidian Gate", reflecting the vague outline of the "Gate".
Facing this storm-like spiritual surge, Luo Xiu took one step or two firmly towards the direction of the light in front of him, until he passed through the obsidian door.
…
Just like the last time he entered the spiritual sea belonging to [Glory], the moment Luo Xiu really stepped into the door, the storm-like spiritual surge disappeared instantly.
The surroundings returned to silence, and the source that was constantly emitting bright light finally showed its complete form in Luo Xiu's field of vision.
The huge, majestic palace, which seemed to be carved from the same huge black crystal, appeared completely in front of Luo Xiu's eyes.
In the middle of the hall, there was the same column as before.
Those are two "Obsidian Pillars", each carrying different powers belonging to [Glory].
Luo Xiu walked forward quickly.
He had arrived in front of the first obsidian pillar, and a hazy golden light flashed across the pillar, revealing the ancient and sacred words engraved on it.
At the same time, new content popped up on Luo Xiu's panel.
[Has advanced to the fifth life path of "Glory", and is acquiring a profession...]
[Your profession is "Holy Judge" and you will be promoted to "Condemnation Bishop"]
[If promotion is confirmed, please touch the ‘Judgment’ pillar]
【……】
This is not a "hidden profession", but a higher-level profession that continues the "Glorious" profession from the previous "Triple Destiny".
If the conditions for continued promotion of the "hidden profession" in the fourth life path cannot be met, they will be promoted back to the "ordinary profession". This is regarded as a guarantee mechanism for "promotion".
Luo Xiu quickly browsed the text on the panel, and then walked towards another obsidian pillar.
There is nothing engraved on the other obsidian pillar, only the outline exudes a faint glow, and the pillar contains a rich and surging "brilliance" spirituality.
Luo Xiu then stretched out his hand and touched the obsidian pillar!
——Buzz! A strong spiritual surge emanated from the surface of the Obsidian Pillar.
When Luo Xiu touched the surface of the obsidian pillar, obscure, ancient, and sacred words gradually appeared on it——
Along with Luo Xiu's panel, new content also emerged.
[Getting the hidden profession...]
[Meet condition 1: You have the profession "Holy Judge"]
[Meet condition 2: Your "divine" attribute is greater than 850]
[Meet condition 3: You have obtained all the attribute value increases of the skill "Brilliant Judgment"]
[You get a hidden profession - "Divine Apostle"]!
【……】
The spirituality sealed in the Obsidian Pillar began to flow into Luo Xiu's body crazily.
An unprecedented sense of power was rising. In Luo Xiu's body, he realized that he was undergoing earth-shaking changes from the inside out. Every bone, flesh, and even every cell was enjoying this sublimated change. .
At the same time, new content appeared on Luo Xiu's panel.
[You obtain the extraordinary profession: Divine Apostle (lv.1)]
[Level inheritance of the lower profession "Holy Judge"]
[The level of "Divine Apostle" is increased to lv.40, and the profession "Divine Judge" is lost]

[Divine Prophecy (Glory, lv.1): Please worship Zhu Rixu for a moment and become its apostle with devotion. I have already glanced at him for a moment, and the oracle will be sent down soon. 】
[You will gain strength from the oracle of a moment. Periodically, the will of a moment will take the initiative to send you an oracle. By completing the oracle of Xuyu, you can get a rich and permanent "God's Gift of Xuyu". 】

【……】
When all the details of being promoted to "Divine Apostle" emerged, the star-like scenery in the distance began to shatter into pieces again.
The invisible force once again drove Luo Xiu away from the "spiritual sea" irresistibly.
The picture in front of him was shattered. The obsidian hall and the giant pillars carrying power quickly dissipated and disappeared in the gradually blurring vision. His consciousness also fell deeply into the spiritual wilderness.
…
When he woke up again, Luo Xiu finally saw the familiar scene in the real world.
Hubert was right in front of him, watching him silently.
"My promotion...is complete."
Luo Xiu said to Hubert weakly:
"I opened the 'door' and finally stepped into the threshold of the saint."
