Chapter 216 Hiding Place
From the moment he stepped into the abandoned warehouse, Luo Xiu clearly felt that the temperature of his body instantly became much colder. A strange aura was filling the surroundings, and it was coming from deep inside. Here come the chilling whispers.
And in the darkness of the warehouse, there were countless eyes staring at him - they were greedy, threatening, and blood-thirsty eyes. The evil creatures entrenched here had regarded Luo Xiu as food for their holes.
Those are the breaths of "dead spirits"... Luo Xiu thought to himself. The owner here raised them, but they did not attack the moment Luo Xiu entered the warehouse, and it seemed that they did not receive relevant instructions from their owner.
Step, step, Luo Xiu continued to walk deeper, the sound of faint footsteps echoing on the four walls of the warehouse.
The light gradually became dim, and finally almost disappeared. Luo Xiu then mobilized his spirituality and gradually condensed a bright golden light group in the palm of his hand to illuminate when moving forward.
When Luo Xiu walked to a black door, the strange whispers he heard when he entered the warehouse gradually died down. The undead souls entrenched in the edge corners were still staring at him, but there was still no other movement.
Luo Xiu then raised his hand, and the light ball in his palm suddenly spread out around him, and began to circle around him three times, and then quickly retracted into his body.
After a moment, three layers of faint golden glow gradually appeared on the outline of Luo Xiu's body. The holy technique of "Triple Holy Protection" has taken effect, and the generated shield is flowing and circling around the body, resisting the invasion that may come at any time.
After completing the preparations for this holy spell, Luo Xiu then continued to cast several auxiliary holy spells on himself, "Hand of Punishment", "Consecration Prayer", "Consecration Blessing", and "Shadow of Holy Light" at the same time After it took effect, Luo Xiu immediately stretched out his hand and gently touched the surface of the black door with his palm.
The ominous silk mist was steaming on the black door. Just like the secret vault door of the "Prayer of Death" described by Anthony before, this door is also guarded by the corresponding undead, and it is more powerful than the one Anthony encountered.
The moment Luo Xiu's palm touched the black door, the ominous black silk mist seemed to be activated and began to squirm around Luo Xiu's arm.
But before the black silk mist wrapped up, Luo Xiu's engulfed arm began to emit a dense golden light, and the surging spirituality escaped from it, and began to impact the body of the undead from the inside out like a drum.
The body of the thick mud-like black mist was instantly pierced, and the entangled undead began to tremble and emit bursts of shrill neighing sounds.
——Hiss! Ooooooh hiss! A sharp and harsh sound came from the ominous silk mist, and when the mist touched Luo Xiu's arm, he retracted instantly as if he was electrocuted.
When he realized that the "death" attached to his own spirituality could not corrode the incoming person, and that there was still a huge gap between himself and the incoming person, the undead spirit quickly untied the silk mist and retreated towards the black door.
But Luo Xiu did not let the undead spirit escape. His other hand had already condensed two sacred light groups, and at the same time he swung it from the side and grabbed the spiritual body of the undead spirit.
The next moment, the light group that combined the power of "purification" and "annihilation" exploded from Luo Xiu's hand. The scorching golden light suddenly flooded the entire body of the undead, and one after another appeared in its body. It exploded like a firecracker, blasting the essential spirituality that made up the undead body into pieces!
——Hiss! Wuwu... The undead made a final, struggling whimpering sound. Its body gradually shattered, and its extremely pure and glorious spirituality completely disintegrated it.
The dark light on the "door" blocked by it also dissipated immediately, revealing a rusty iron door that had been hidden for a long time.
When the dead souls were purified by Luo Xiu, the iron gate immediately returned to its original shape. The "barrier" that was used to isolate him also dissolved at the same time. Luo Xiu could hear the noisy sounds coming from behind the door, as well as dozens of spiritual surges belonging to "Lost".
Just behind this door, there are dozens of [lost] extraordinary beings dormant! Among them, the spiritual surges of the "two-fold destiny" are mostly present, and there are about four spiritual surges of the "three-fold destiny".
And at their core, in the middle, the spiritual response is strongest—that is the spiritual surge that belongs to the extraordinary people of the "Fourth Path of Destiny"!
It seems that the core source of spiritual reactions is "Death Teller" Gray. There are four "favored ones" beside him. Judging from their spiritual reactions, they seem to be performing some ancient taboo ritual.
But Luo Xiu was not interested in what this group of [Lost] heretics were doing. He quickly completed his prayer and summoned the "Guardian of Falsehood", "Holy Flame Wolf" and "Burning Feather Raven", while using his right hand He has already grasped the magic staff "The Bite of Poison".
The next moment, the "Guardian of Illusion" Amber was attached to Luo Xiu. A golden hammer appeared in his hand, and then he smashed down on the iron gate!
——Boom! ! !
The moment the giant hammer hit the iron door, a huge sound suddenly erupted in the entire warehouse.
The door was shattered by the irresistible force in an instant, and the [Lost] heretics inside finally revealed their figures.
There were figures of believers wearing pitch black cloaks one after another. They were standing in three circles, prostrate themselves before the "venerable" who was lying on the stone bed in the middle.
The believers in the outermost half circle near the door stand with their backs to their "venerable". They hold dead wood staffs in their front hands, with the head of the staff pointed directly in the direction of the door. The spell of death is accumulating and containing in it. Education.
The next moment, black chaotic light spurted out from the staffs in the hands of these believers, and moved between the staffs, forming a rich and deep dark network that exuded an ominous atmosphere.
The dark net quickly opened in the direction of Luo Xiu, and scarlet light spots flashed out from several intersecting spiritual threads, and a surge of light mixed with pitch black and scarlet light spewed out.
The mixed-color light surge shot straight at Luo Xiu from multiple angles, and Luo Xiu waved his left hand forward at the same time, driving the golden light hammer in the hand of Amber, the "Guardian of Illusion" behind him, to swing forward violently at the same time, hitting it hard with The countless light surges containing the power of death collided.
--boom! Boom boom boom! The surging spirituality caused the several light surges to deflect from the predetermined trajectory, and exploded in the mid-air. Broken light of crimson and pitch black overflowed in the mid-air, and the escaping breath of death was filled with an uncomfortable stench, which made Luo Xiu frowned slightly.
After blocking the first round of attacks from the believers, Luo Xiu immediately threw out his right hand, and the green magic crystal of "Bite of Evil" suddenly burst into golden light, and a thunderbolt landed on the head of a believer. top of head.
--boom! A huge roar resounded, and the "Thunder of Judgment" had turned a believer holding a staff into powder, as well as the two prostrate believers who were close to him. The residual power of the annihilating thunder and fire still lingered, making The surrounding believers felt bursts of stinging pain.
"You...who are you!" Someone among the believers in the outer circle shouted in a tearful voice.
At first, the believers thought it was just an ordinary invasion.
Before that, they had encountered similar things - the extraordinary beings of [Supreme], [Intellect] and [Glory] often discovered their strongholds during inspections.
But those invaders were almost all wiped out in a few rounds of bombardment. The believers in this "Hidden Eye" have never experienced such a situation.
Luo Xiu did not answer the cultist's cry, but just prayed for the next skill. A pale glow appeared in the palm of his left hand.
The believers in the outer half circle have re-arranged their formations, and the staffs they hold in their hands have begun to accumulate the energy of death, preparing to strike at this uninvited guest again.
But this time, Luo Xiu took action faster than them. The pale light ball in his hand had condensed into shape, and the next moment it flew into the air, and suddenly spread outward.
The light group that was so dense that it solidified quickly turned into smoke and dissipated. Strands of white light like silk were flying and hovering in the mid-air, and quickly covered the heads of the "Hidden Eye" cultists on the opposite side.
The believers who were accumulating strength and preparing for another attack suddenly felt a stirring in their minds the moment they were struck by the white light.
A strong, frantic desire for blood emerged from the depths of their souls, and quickly became the dominant force in their souls, depriving them of all reason.
——"Crazy Glow"! This is the new holy technique cast by Luo Xiu!
In the next moment, the situation in the ritual place deep in the warehouse was completely reversed. The believers who originally held their staffs facing Luo Xiu turned around and pointed their staffs at the other prostrate believers.
These death mages who were "protectors" suddenly switched sides, leaving the "worshippers" with no time to react in a hurry.
The first light surge containing the power of death erupted from the staff, and then there were the second, third, and dozens of death light surges, washing over the heads of all the believers like a curtain of rain.
Time and time again, surges of light mixed with death curses exploded among the believers. The breath of blood continued to spread from them, and flesh and blood and wailing sounds flew outwards.
Scarlet and pitch-black light engulfed the believers in patches. The death curses cast by the "guardians" affected by the madness had formed a chain reaction among the believers.
These pagans who advocated the way of death then left one after another in pursuit of death.
Luo Xiu stood by the door where he came from, watching the believers who had only second and third lives in front of him, falling into the hands of his own people one after another.
But his attention was not mainly on them, but on the center where these believers paid homage - the haggard but still active "Venerable" lying on the stone bed. These believers suffered such a disaster, but he never made any movement, or even opened his eyes!
Luo Xiu watched the "venerable" vigilantly, and at the same time conducted panel detection on him, and quickly received feedback.
The feedback from the panel also confirmed all Luo Xiu's intelligence and conjectures - that "Venerable" is "Death Teller" Gray! And he is indeed [Lost] with the fourth level of destiny, and his occupation is "Priest of the Undead"!
That is the [Lost] profession between the "Spirit Priest" and the "Death Priest". If the extraordinary beings of the [Lost] destiny are promoted to the second and third levels of destiny, they will be given by the Mother Goddess respectively. If you have the "Spirit Conjuring" and "Death" abilities, you can choose to be promoted to "Undead Priest" at the fourth level of life.
This profession is not uncommon among [Lost] believers, and it is not difficult to meet the prerequisites, so it is considered a semi-hidden profession.
While Luo Xiu was observing "Death Teller" Gray, he also opened his own "spiritual vision".
From the "spiritual" perspective, Luo Xiu saw one black thread after another, radiating outward from the body of "Death Teller" Gray, and the other end was connected to all the "Hidden Eye" believers.
When the believers cast "death curse" to attack each other, the threads involved in the dead believers' bodies would stretch outward, dragging their souls out of their damaged bodies.
At the same time, there is some kind of transformation energy contained in the black line, which can transform the soul of the newly deceased into a "dead spirit" in a very short time, dyeing its soul with deep darkness.
The newly born "dead souls" were finally dragged by black silk threads to "Death Teller" Gray, and lingered and circled around him. Even though their physical bodies have died, they have become "dead souls" and still regard their "venerable" as their only Lord after death.
"Is that the ability of the 'Undead Priest' Gray? He has not reacted to the believers attacking each other for a long time. Could it be..."
Luo Xiu was thinking about this, and at the next moment, the "death teller" Greg finally made a new move.
Those believers who were affected by "Frenzy" cast a death curse that accidentally hit Grayon's body, causing him to wake up from his "sleep" state.
He opened his eyes, and his completely black eyes looked at everything in front of him calmly, as if he had already known such a scene.
Then, he sat up straight on the stone bed, and at the same time he held his dry arms forward, and countless dark threads appeared from nowhere, and began to burn with scorching black flames.
The black flames contained the "death" curse instilled by Grain himself. They screamed, burned, and finally touched the bodies of the connected believers.
Those frantic believers stopped their actions instantly, and seemed to have regained their consciousness the moment they were burned by the fire, but the black flames did not subside because of this.
——Wow! The black flames climbed onto the clothes of the believers and began to burn their bodies. The believers watched as they were burned into ashes bit by bit, but no one wailed at the bone-eroding pain. Instead, they all showed fanatical joy.
"Be one with death... be one with the Lord... be one with the Mother Goddess!" The believers chanted fervently while making their last bows in the direction of "Death Teller" Gray. The body was completely burned to ashes soon after.
And their souls were quickly pulled out by another "spiritual" black thread, and transformed into undead spirits, wandering to Grean's side.
This process did not last too long. Those believers affected by "Madness" were all killed by Grean himself. The number of undead souls transformed by their souls gathered into a terrifying... The numbers were hovering around Gray's body, exuding bursts of gloomy aura.
"…outsiders."
"Death Teller" Grayon on the stone bed, after killing all the frantic believers below, he finally spoke:
"Why are you here...and why did you interrupt my ceremony?"
"Ah... I can already see the guidance of the Mother Goddess. The door that the saint can step into is not far away from me..."
"And you... a reckless outsider, you have hindered my path to sainthood."
Greg's tone seemed a little angry, but he maintained the calmness of an elder and said:
"But this is okay..."
"My believers, they were going to be martyred in the end and sacrifice enough death for me. And you... you just advanced this process."
"Unfortunately, this death is not pure enough, let alone complete..."
"The Teller of Death" said a lot to himself. He stood up at the same time, raised his right hand, and shook it heavily in the air again.
In Luo Xiu's "spiritual vision", the undead spirits lingering and hovering around Grean "exploded" one after another, and turned into spiritual beings filled with the power of death, flowing in strands. Entered Gray's body.
"Death Teller" Greg, his old and wrinkled skin began to fall off layer by layer like molting. The deep black light covered most of his skin, with bubbles constantly emerging from it, accompanied by strange, tentacle-like movements.
Those "dead souls" brought death to Grean, and Grean gradually transformed into a half human, half undead creature. His spirituality is constantly transforming towards a higher point, and he is "evolving" For a new, higher level of life.
This process happened very quickly. While Luo Xiu was still thinking about the possible meaning of Grean's previous words, Grean had already begun to sublimate the scene!
Seeing this, Luo Xiu stepped forward and took the lead in launching an attack while Grain's sublimation was not yet complete.
The Scarlet Scythe emerged from Luo Xiu's left hand, and the magic core of his right surgical wand simultaneously emitted bursts of fine scarlet lightning before rushing towards the "Death Teller" Gray.
