Early the next morning, after everyone said goodbye, they left the Elf Forest in different directions. Brother Rock, Zhuo Yun, Keanu and Yue Ji were all together. Because Yue Ji had left the Moonhen Mercenary Group for a while, she decided to stop by the Red Hurricane Clan before accompanying Keanu back to the Tianjin Magician Guild. . One is to go back to the mercenary group to have a look, and the other is to pass the news about the Dark Holy Cult back to the mercenary group. And Oliveira, Ah-Dai and the others will just return along the original route until the Holy See separates again.
In order to shorten the time on the road, Ah-Dai summoned a small bone with super flying ability, carrying himself, Xuan Yue and Oliveira quickly towards the direction of the Holy See. Leaving the Death Mountains for the first time, Little Bones was extremely excited. He kept admiring the surrounding scenery while flying. With his flying ability, it took only three days to cross the vast grassland of the Yalian tribe and arrive at the Holy Land. Near the Holy See. After these three days of flying, the resentful spirits have completely integrated with their current bodies, and have gradually mastered the capabilities of the black dragon. Originally, Duan wanted to summon Sheng Xie and let him show off outside, but Sheng Xie felt the power of the small bones, and this time he took the initiative to stay in the blood of the dragon to practice. As a member of the Dragon King lineage, it would be difficult for him to accept it if he could not compare with his younger brother. At this time, he had completely entered into penance.
"Little Bones, land, and you will soon reach the territory of the Holy See. After all, you have evil attributes. It is not good for you to be discovered by the priests of the Holy See and the Holy Knights."
"Yes, Master." Ever since Ah-Dai successfully subdued the dead demon Xianxian that day, Little Bones admired him so much. He has completely placed himself in the position of a servant.
Little Bones found a deserted place and landed firmly on the ground. Four huge dragon claws grabbed the ground. The black scales on his body looked extremely powerful under the sunlight. Dui pulled Xuan Yue and Oliveira to the ground. Oliveira said: "Boss Dumb, Boss Xuanyue, I will not enter the Holy See with you. I want to quickly report the matters on the Death Mountain back to the union, and also to our entire Huasheng Empire, so that everyone can do a good job." Get ready. In this operation to eliminate the Dark Holy Cult, we are stronger than those bastards in the Sunset Empire. Let them see what their true strength is." Dui smiled slightly and said, "I'm afraid the Sunset Empire except the wind element. Except for Magister Biyinluoge, there are no elites who can participate in this operation."
Xuan Yue said: "It doesn't matter if there is no one! The scale of our operation is unprecedented, and we need a lot of economy. There must be a lot of support. The Sunset Empire has made so much dirty money, and it will be very painful for Quan Yi to spit out some of it this time. I believe that he will not dare not to pay it. I really want to see him receive it. What expression will grandpa have when he gathers together?" The three of them thought of Quanyi's pale face and burst into laughter. None of them had a good impression of the Sunset Empire.
The laughter subsided. Oliveira gave a slight salute to Xuan Yue and Duan, and said: "Boss, let's say goodbye. You should be careful along the way. See you in the Vatican soon." After that, he cast an acceleration spell on himself, and quickly Leaving in the direction of the Province of Light. Watching Oliveira's cyan back gradually disappear, Xuan Yue sighed slightly and said: "A few days ago, we were all very lively together, but now we are the only two left."
After Ah-Dai took back the dragon's blood from the small bones, he put his arms around Xuan Yue's fragrant shoulders and said with a smile: "You still like the fun so much. After everything is over, we will still get together! At that time, we can find friends Settling in a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, you no longer have to travel around and live a peaceful and comfortable life. Teacher Goriqi's psychedelic forest and elf forest are both good places, or the small village where Uncle Harry lives. Our choice."
Xuan Yue gently leaned on Ah-Dai's shoulder and said softly: "I love the excitement, but I also want to have you by my side. As long as I can live with you, I am willing to do it anywhere.”
Ah-Dai gently blew on Xuan Yue's fragrant lips and hugged her delicate body tightly, feeling each other's deep affection for each other. They were completely intoxicated with the longing for the future. A cloud like a cotton ball floated in the sky. It blocked the dazzling sunlight, as if the sun was also shy about their lingering. Without the sunshine, there was a slight chill in the air. With the breeze caressing their faces, they gradually woke up from their entanglement. Xuan Yue shyly buried her pretty face in Ah-Dai's arms, too shy to look at him. Ah-Dai's heart was full of tenderness, and he whispered: "Let's go." After saying that, he hugged Xuan Yue's delicate body and flew up wrapped in white fighting spirit, heading towards the holy mountain of the Holy See.
As soon as he entered the sacred mountain territory, Ah-Dai discovered that there was a large group of holy knights patrolling back and forth not far ahead. Each holy knight looked around nervously, holding his knight's sword tightly, fearing that he would let go Passing through a suspicious place, the defense was so tight that it seemed that everyone was surrounded by soldiers. Dui smiled at Xuan Yue and said: "Look, how tight the defense of the Holy See is. It seems that Grandpa Pope is also very nervous now!" Xuan Yue frowned and said: "No, normally there shouldn't be such tight defense. After all, this is the fundamental place of our Holy See!"
A'Dai was stunned and said, "Let's go over and have a look, and we'll find out if we ask." After that, he took Xuan Yue's little hand and floated away. Get up and head towards the defensive circle of the holy knights at the foot of the sacred mountain. Just as they approached the outer perimeter of the defense, a loud shout came, "Stop, who dares to trespass on the holy mountain of the Holy See." Hundreds of holy knights quickly surrounded Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue after discovering them. The long swords in their hands were pointed at the vital points of the two of them, as if they would immediately change their attacks if there was even the slightest mistake.
These holy knights are all the lowest-level clergy of the Holy See. They have never seen Xuan Yue on weekdays, not to mention that Xuan Yue is currently wearing only an ordinary light blue dress.
The tenderness on Xuan Yue's face when she faced Dumb disappeared, and the expression on her pretty face became extremely majestic. She said in a deep voice: "What happened to the Vatican? I am Xuan Yue, a priest in red."
The surrounding holy knights all showed doubtful expressions, although they also heard that Xuan Yue, the new red-clothed priest who had just taken office in the Holy See, was a very young girl and the daughter of Xuan Ye priest. But at this time, they did not dare to believe it easily. The leader of the Holy Knight captain tentatively said: "Since you are the red priest of Xuanyue, can you show me your identity certificate."
Xuan Yue's heart tightened, she knew something must have happened to the Holy See. Otherwise, the holy knights would not be so nervous. They nodded and said: "Okay." With a wave of his hand, he opened his own space barrier, took out the red sacrificial robe, put it on himself gently, and at her deliberate urging As he moved, a circle of golden divine light emitted from his body, instantly condensing into a thick barrier around his body.
Feeling the powerful energy full of sacred aura, the captain immediately believed Xuan Yue's identity, quickly put away the long sword in his hand, knelt down on one knee, and said: "See the Cardinal."
Xuan Yue hummed and said: "Get out of the way, we have to go back to the Holy Mountain immediately to meet the Pope."
The captain stood up, glanced at Ah-Dai doubtfully, and said, "Can you please show me your identity as well?"
Xuan Yue frowned slightly and said, "He is the most distinguished guest of the Holy See, and he also What kind of identification do you need? Isn’t it enough for me to be here?”
The captain said respectfully: “I’m sorry, Bishop, this is an order issued by the Pope. No matter who you are, you can’t enter or exit the sacred mountain at will. Those who want to enter must have a letter from the Pope, and those who want to enter must have a certificate from our Vatican clergy. This is a new rule that you may not know yet.”
Xuan Yue asked doubtfully: "Did something happen to the Holy See? Why is the defense so tight?"
The captain said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Bishop, the young one is only responsible for patrolling, and I don't know anything else. Please forgive me. Please also ask Sir, please show me your ID, otherwise we won’t be able to let you go.”
Where does Dui have any ID? She couldn't help but feel embarrassed and said to Xuanyue: "What should I do? I don't have any identification."
Xuan Yue said in a deep voice to the captain: "Which of your commanders is on duty today? Ask him to come and see me. I am the granddaughter of the Pope. Don't you still believe me?"
The captain said lightly: "I'm sorry, Lord Bishop, the Pope's order states that even clergy with sacred energy must not violate this order. Our leader is currently patrolling on the other side of the sacred mountain, and I'm afraid we won't be able to come here in a short time. Otherwise, please wait. After a while."
Xuan Yue's patience was finally worn out, and she shouted angrily: "We have something important to report to the Holy See, but you are preventing us from entering. If we are delayed, who will be responsible?"
This holy knight captain can be said to be impervious to water, and still had an indifferent expression, saying: "But if I let you in, I will be punished immediately by the superiors. It is my duty to guard this place, please forgive me. I think , the Pope will not punish a person who is loyal to his duty."
"You..." Xuan Yue was filled with anger, and the surging holy aura came out of her body, oppressing the hundreds of holy knights around her to involuntarily attack. Then they took a few steps back, but even in the face of Xuan Yue's powerful momentum, they still had no intention at all and looked at Xuan Yue and Ah-Dai with firm expressions.
A'Dai took Xuan Yue's arm and said: "Forget it, don't make it difficult for them, they did the right thing, the Holy See is really proud to have such a clergy!"
Under Ah-Dai's comfort, the anger in Xuan Yue's heart gradually dissipated. She glanced around at the holy knights around her, nodded and said: "Okay, you won't let us in, right? Then I have a way. Great God of Heaven. ! Please allow me to borrow your power to spread the holy light to the world." Holding the angel's staff high in his hand, a bright golden light pillar fell from the sky, and instantly enveloped the bodies of Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue, bathing them in divine light. In the middle, Ah-Dai felt a calmness in his mind, smiled slightly, and said: "Yueyue, your sacred energy has become more pure."
Xuanyue said: "This should be the result of this experience. In a place as dangerous as the Death Mountain, spiritual power is inevitable." The angel's staff circled slightly, and the golden beam of light in the sky completely descended, Xuan Yue chanted: "Based on the holy light, the door of time and space is open! Please send us to where we want to go." The golden light suddenly converged. In the surprised gaze of the holy knights, the figures of Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue completely disappeared. The captain said in a voice: "No, they must have entered the sacred mountain. , call the police." One of his holy knights immediately took out a golden pipe from his arms, put it to his mouth and blew it, and the sharp whistle shot into the sky and spread throughout the sacred mountain in an instant.
Under the influence of Xuan Yue's space magic, Ah-Dai felt confused for a while. Before the scenery became clear again, he found that he and Xuan Yue had arrived in front of the Temple of Light.
Xuan Yue smiled slightly and said: "Ah-Dai, what do you think of my magic? This is something I researched myself. It combines the positioning transfer of the two magics of sacred light and space."
Ah-Dai admired : "Very good! Under the influence of the energy condensed by the sacred light magic, the time for you to use space magic is greatly shortened. Yueyue, you are really getting better and better."
Sharp whistle When the message reached the ears of the two of them, Xuan Yue frowned: "This captain is really serious and responsible. He actually blew the whistle for the invasion of the enemy. Let's go into the temple and see what happened."
Before the two of them reached the entrance of the temple, three people had already walked out of the temple. It was Xuan Ye, Mang Xiu and Yu Jian, three priests in red. As soon as she saw her father, Xuan Yue was immediately overjoyed. She let go of Ah-Dai's hand, flew forward, and shouted excitedly: "Dad." Xuan Ye and the others came out when they heard the sirens. He was also overjoyed with his daughter. He opened his arms and embraced her. He smiled and said, "My baby girl is back. My father is almost worried to death. Hey, my father should feel you when you are back. Why don't I feel anything at all?" No? "
Xuan Yue said with a smile: "Is it because your daughter is so powerful that you can't feel it? Dad, my magic skills have improved again."< br>
Mang Xiu and Yu Jian gathered around at this time. Yu Jian smiled and said: "You two are reminiscing about old times. Mang Xiu and I went out to take a look. Recently, the Vatican has been infested with soldiers. I don’t know where this police sentry came from. Come.”
Mang Xiu said: "Yueyue, when you came back, were there enemies chasing you outside? Otherwise, how could there be such a mountain-wide warning flute?"
Ah-Dai walked forward with a wry smile and said : "I think there's no need for you two priests to go. This siren is sounding because of us."
"Huh? What did you say? How could the siren sound for you? :" Xuan Ye asked doubtfully.
Xuan Yue pursed her lips and said, "What are you talking about, Dad, what's wrong with our Vatican? Why are we so tightly guarded? Even I wasn't allowed in. I used space transfer magic to bring Dumb in." So they sounded the siren."
Xuan Ye shook his head helplessly and sighed: "The situation within the Holy See has been very tense recently, and strengthening defense is also a helpless move. Let's go, let's go in. Hurry up and report the results of your trip to your grandfather. Let me report, the old man has been impatient for a long time."
Mang Xiu said: "You go in first, I will deal with the things outside so as not to panic." After that, he stood up. , and fell towards the outskirts of the Holy Mountain of the Holy See.
Xuan Ye seemed to be in a hurry, pulling his daughter and walking inside quickly. Ah-Dai followed behind and saw Xuan Ye's expression so anxious, and asked: "Yue, father-in-law, what on earth is going on?"
After all, he was engaged to his daughter. Although Xuan Ye didn't like Ah-Dai, his tone was no longer as cold as before, "You may not know that many things have happened on the mainland during the time you have been gone. Various forces Almost all the important people were attacked by assassins. Now the people on the mainland are panicked, and even our Holy See is a little confused." …”
Xuan Ye nodded heavily and said: "Your grandfather was assassinated twice. The first time it was three judges of light. The second time, it was two magic masters who had just been promoted to white priests. If If it weren’t for your grandpa’s strong cultivation, even if he reacted, he would be the traitor. In such an unexpected situation, I’m afraid…”
Xuan Yue felt a layer of cold sweat forming on her back and murmured. : "Unexpectedly, even the priests in white betrayed the gods and did such blasphemous things. It is simply unbelievable. What is going on? Is the world really going to be in chaos?"
Xuan Ye said: "According to your grandfather and I's speculation, it is estimated that the current chaos on the mainland is entirely caused by the Dark Holy Cult. They must have planted many spies among various forces in the mainland for a long time, just like your Aunt Luoshui. Now that it's the last minute, they no longer need to hide their spies, so they launch an assassination operation. Their target is the heads of state or the leaders of major forces. Their purpose is very clear. Even if they fail to succeed, they will still kill these big figures on the mainland. Create some chaos. Try to delay the time for us to deal with them, so that we can use this time to achieve their goals." As they said this, they had already reached the center of the Temple of Light.
After listening to Xuan Ye's words, Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue both fell into deep thought. How could they not have imagined that after finally successfully completing the mission in the Death Mountains, something went wrong on the human side.
Xuan Ye took a few steps forward, walked to the huge angel statue, and used his spiritual power to send a message in the direction of the statue: "Father, Yueyue and the others are back."
After a long while , a circle of golden light lit up from in front of the angel statue, and the Pope, shrouded in a golden sacrificial robe, appeared in front of everyone. Compared with when Brother and the others left, the Pope looked more haggard. Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue woke up from their deep thoughts. Xuan Yue took a few steps forward, walked to the Pope, and said, "Grandpa, we are back. Are you okay?"
The Pope sighed softly, looked at Xuan Yue and Duan with a smile and said: "It's good to be back. Grandpa is fine. It's just that the mainland is in chaos now. All forces are in danger. The situation is very bad!"
Dumb said: "Grandpa Pope, there is actually nothing wrong with this. Rather than letting those betrayers hide in the dark, it is better to expose them like this. Although it will be a little chaotic for the time being, it will be good for us when we go to the Death Mountain in the future. The action is beneficial. I don’t know what the losses of the various forces are now, and whether any leader has died due to the assassination..."
The Pope: "The losses are still relatively large, like the mainland magician union, Two elders rebelled, and although they were eliminated in the end, they were also caught unawares, causing the association's masters to lose nearly half of their strength in one fell swoop. The master is the most important. Well, from what you said, it seems that the Dark Holy Cult is in the Death Mountain?”
Dumb nodded and said: "It's basically certain, it's this key..." At that moment, he briefly told the story of how everyone went to the Death Mountain to inquire about the whereabouts of the headquarters of the Dark Holy Cult.
After listening to Dumb’s narration, the pope’s eyes sparkled. He finally got the exact information about the enemy. Even with his restraint, he couldn’t help but show excitement, “Okay, you did a good job this time. , as long as the goal is clear, it will be much easier to handle."
A'Dai said: "Grandpa Pope, are there any losses to other forces? How about our Tiangang Sword Sect?"
< br>
The Pope said: "The Tiangang Sword Sect is extremely strict in recruiting disciples, and many of them are direct descendants of high-generation disciples. I have never heard of traitors. As for other forces, they have suffered losses to varying degrees. Magister Biinluoge of the Sunset Empire He was injured, but I heard that the injury was not serious. King Quanyi was now afraid of being assassinated, so he deployed an army to guard the Sunset City, which made the people of the Sunset Empire panic. The King of Tianjin Empire was assassinated, and it took many masters to defeat the assassin. To eliminate it, Magister Lardas is now in charge of the palace, and he does not dare to relax at all. The evil forces of those dark forces can be said to be pervasive, and almost all forces have been attacked to varying degrees, making the mainland very tense. We have sent clergy to all parties, not counting the Sunset Empire. Even the forces that reached an agreement with us at the Holy See last time almost all responded by waiting for accurate news and refused to send elites to the Holy See in advance. Alas, they are like this. Being short-sighted may delay our final decisive battle with the Dark Saint Religion! You must know that if you give them one more day, the Dark Saint Religion will be more likely to succeed. Once the entrance to the demon world is opened, it will cause untold consequences. It’s a loss. Fortunately, you sent the news back in time. It’s January 1999 and we still have time.”
A’Dai nodded solemnly and said: “Brother Rock and the others have returned to their respective forces. I think the parties supporting us will not hesitate anymore this time. After all, they should also know how big the threat of the Dark Holy Religion is."
The Pope turned to Xuan Ye and said: "Ye'er, you. Immediately send my order to send the most capable subordinates to all parties, and invite them to lead the elite to the Holy See immediately. We must gather the forces in the shortest possible time to fight to the death with the Dark Holy Religion. At the same time, I order all the clergy to strengthen their cultivation and be ready at any time. Dispatch.”
Xuan Ye took the order, and the Pope turned to Ah-Dai and said, "Last time you said you wanted to return to the Tiangang Sword Sect, but you haven't gone yet."
Ah-Dai nodded and said: "Now, there is nothing to hide. The main reason why I want to return to the Tiangang Sword Sect is to participate in the 20-year event of the Four Sword Masters. The competition."
The Pope was shocked and said: "What happened to the competition between the four sword masters?"
At the moment, Dumb recounted the competition rules set by the four great sword masters in the past, "..., Grandpa Pope, in fact, my master, the Tiangang Sword Master, has passed away. I returned to the Tiangang Sword Sect and wanted to participate in his place. This competition is really important to our Tiangang Sword Sect. I have reported back to you clearly about the Dark Holy Sect. Tiangang Mountain is very close to the Holy See. Don’t worry, I will meet with our Tiangang once the competition is over. The people from the Sword Sect will rush over to join you immediately. It should not delay our journey to the Death Mountain."
A hint of silence flashed in the Pope's eyes, and he murmured: "Tiangang Sword Master, he, he has passed away. Didn’t you? I didn’t expect that our separation many years ago turned out to be an eternal farewell. He is the only person on the mainland who is willing to admire me.” Alas, the Pope has always been upset about his defeat at the hands of the Tiangang Sword Master. His strength improved rapidly after taking over as Pope, but because the various matters in the Holy See were too heavy, he never had the opportunity to compete with the Tiangang Sword Master again. At this time, hearing that the only person he regarded as his opponent had passed away, it was inevitable that he would feel a little sad in his heart.
A trace of tears flashed in Ah-Dai's eyes, as if the master's figure appeared in front of him again. Taking a deep breath, he said firmly: "Grandpa Pope, in this competition between the four sword masters, I will definitely win." I will not lose. I will not let down my master’s expectations of me. The other three sword masters are also the top figures in the mainland. I will try my best to win them over and become our most powerful help in heading to the Death Mountain. It’s up to you here, time is tight, I want to go back to Tiangang Sword Sect to prepare now.”
A glimmer of light flashed in the Pope's eyes, and he nodded gently and said: "My child, you are not only the savior sent by God to save the world, but also my grandson-in-law. You must pay attention to your own safety. We cannot save the mainland from this disaster without you. . Although it is important to win over the three sword masters, your safety is more important. You know what I mean."
Feeling the Pope's heartfelt concern, Dui smiled slightly and said, "Grandpa, thank you. Don't worry, my current cultivation level is almost as good as my master's. I will definitely come back safely. Grandpa, there is nothing wrong with the Holy See for the time being. I am afraid that Yueyue will be worried, so I will let her go with me for at least two months. We will definitely come back. When we come back, we will discuss how to contend with the creatures in the Undead Mountains."
The Pope looked at his granddaughter and said, "Yueyue, you must listen to Dumb when you go to the Tiangang Mountains. , don’t give him any trouble.”
Xuan Yue said coquettishly: "Grandpa, how can I cause trouble for him? Do you still think of me as a child?"
The Pope smiled and said: "In Grandpa's heart, you will always be a child. To be honest, Grandpa is really happy and relieved that you can come back safely this time and bring back such important news. From now on, the mainland will be your young people’s world. Since Dumb is eager to return to the Tiangang Mountains, I won’t let you stay. Be careful along the way. The security around the Holy See is very tight. In order to save time, you just fly out. Hajima, go and make arrangements so that Yueyue and the others don't encounter obstacles again."
"Yes. Lord Pope." Yuma responded respectfully.
After bidding farewell to the Pope, Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue came to the square in front of Guangming under the leadership of Yujian. When they came here, the two of them almost simultaneously remembered that Ah-Dai had arrived in time to stop Xuan Yue's wedding. The two of them looked at each other, with deep affection communicating in each other's eyes, and the hands holding each other tightened in unison. It's tight, everything is left unsaid.
Hajima smiled slightly and said: "When you leave, I will immediately arrange for the Holy See's air defense priests not to embarrass you. Come back early, the Holy See and the people of the mainland need you."
A'Dai respectfully saluted Yujian and said: "Goodbye, Yujian Sacrifice, we will definitely be back soon." After saying that, holding Xuan Yue's little hand, wrapped in the vitality, flew up and headed towards Go high in the air.
The cultivation levels of Xuan Yue and Ah-Dai can be said to have reached the top level of warriors and magicians on the mainland. Under the full strength of the two people, their speed increased rapidly, and they headed towards the Tiangang Mountains like lightning. They were no better than Xiao Gu. What's wrong with carrying them?
In the Death Mountains. Central peak.
In front of a huge circular altar, a man shrouded in black is constantly chanting strange spells in a strange language. A low and gloomy feeling permeates around his body. On the altar The six huge golden symbols seemed to be trembling slightly. This altar is about three meters high and about fifty meters in diameter. The Fantasy Chinese Death God is a huge equilateral hexagon. In the center of the altar, there is a spiral pattern with a diameter of three meters. The pattern continues to extend outward. Various strange symbols were formed. On the six corners of the altar, there is a huge golden symbol full of sacred aura. Although thousands of years have passed, the energy of these six symbols has not diminished at all. Taking a deep breath, the man in black stopped chanting the spell, and five black figures appeared behind him. One of them said: "Master, how are you? How long will it take to open the exit.".
