Although most of Luoye's magic failed due to the pain that came from his very soul, the few defensive spells that were successfully cast quickly formed layers of barriers around him.

At the same time, several defensive Magic Scroll that looked to be of high quality exploded around him, forming defensive barriers.

The Two-Headed Silver Dragon beneath him also changed its previous offensive strategy and went all out to defend.

But Fengyun had no intention of continuing the attack at this moment. He didn't even bother to strike Luoye, who was in agony, before going to Little Nine's side and taking the shrunken Xiaojiu with him, splitting into hundreds of Phantom and scattering in all directions to escape.

Noticing this, Luoye still endured the pain and ordered the Two-Headed Silver Dragon to attack, while struggling to control the energy Angel to assist in the attack, scattering many of the Phantom formed by the gathering of Fengyun.

But that's just a drop in the ocean!

He was powerless to stop Fengyun's escape until the pain from the depths of his soul had subsided.

At the same time, he was secretly alarmed. "According to Your Majesty, his method of creating Phantom that are indistinguishable from the original body should only be able to create five or six groups, right?"

But right now...

"Sigh, this little guy was probably hiding his true abilities before."

"With the ability to create hundreds or even thousands of Phantom clones, catching this kid will be difficult!"

When Wushenuo and his group, who were rushing to the scene, saw this, their expressions tightened. Without saying a word, they used various methods to attack the Phantom that had escaped to their vicinity, trying to find out Fengyun's true identity from them.

Wushenuo even multiplied himself into four, constantly switching between his true form Phantom, and unleashing a series of Battle Qi Slash to attack Fengyun's Phantom clones.

But once all the Phantom clones they could see were destroyed, and Fengyun's true form was not found, it was as if they had simply vanished.

Having recovered from the pain, Luoye approached Wushenuo and said, "Forget it, let's go back!"

"Our operation this time has been a complete failure. With a method that can create a large number of Phantom clones, it is extremely difficult to capture or kill him."

Wushenuo nodded, frowned and sighed, "That's right, with this method, it's too difficult to capture or kill him."

"But what exactly is his method? It looks like a level three Shadow Clone magic to me, but isn't that just a simple auxiliary magic used to visually interfere with the enemy?"

"I remember he wasn't good at magic, he only learned one Healing Spell. When did he learn this spell and become so good that the Phantom he created were exactly the same as his real body?"

Luoye smiled slightly, and with a flick of his body, Phantom exactly like him, even with the same aura, appeared beside him. Then he laughed and said, "Indeed, it is the technique of Shadow Clone!"

"The reason why it can be so indistinguishable from the original body is because it is Saint Realm being. Any kind of magic will undergo a qualitative change as its strength increases."

"I can also distinguish between such indistinguishable Phantom."

"But a fake is still a fake. Although this Phantom looks exactly like the real thing, it is ultimately just a fake formed by a wisp of light energy and cannot be used for offense or defense."

"And if we are too far away, we will be unable to control it and it will reveal obvious flaws."

"It's not difficult to deal with this tactic. Just expand the attack range to include the Phantom as well."

"What makes Yun so troublesome is that he can create hundreds or even thousands of Phantom at once, instead of just one or two."

"Moreover, these Phantom can maintain their perfect state for a much longer distance. With such a large range and such a large number, this level three auxiliary spell has become a god-tier escape skill."

"It seems that although this kid doesn't fully grasp the essence of the Path of Light and is still some distance from old fogies like us, he has an exceptional talent for applying it. I wonder how he does it?"

The more the Luoye praised, the more deeply Wushenuo frowned, but faced with the fact that Fengyun had escaped, the Light Church could only admit defeat this time.

After all, the Light Church suffered considerable losses and was greatly affected by the Beast Tide attack. It is impossible for them to launch a military campaign against the Dark Alliance in the short term to overwhelm them with their overall strength and get revenge.

From an individual perspective and in terms of the overall power structure, there's nothing that can be done about the other side. If we don't admit defeat, what else can we do?

Just as he sighed and was about to call Fallen Leaves to leave and return to the Holy See to report the matter to Haitings, a strong energy fluctuation suddenly emanated from Hess City.

Wu Sennuo frowned again and said, "Hmm~, how come there is still a great battle taking place in the city? Judging from the fluctuations, it is still the Angel Battle Array cast by our Inquisition's Special Class Steward."

"I remember that in order not to arouse the target's suspicion, the only team we arranged to deal with those undercover agents in the city was a small team of Purifier led by a Level 8 deacon. How come there are other Special Class Steward in the city?"

Luoye glanced at the source of the energy burst and said, "Something's not right. That's not where I encountered Yun before. Does your Inquisition have any other missions being carried out in Hess City?"

Wushenuo shook his head and said, "I know about the Inquisition's mission. It's probably just that a passing Special Class Steward discovered someone on the red list or a gang and is cleaning them up. Let's go. We've already used the Angel Battle Array, so there shouldn't be any unexpected problems."

"Let's think about how to get back and report to His Majesty!"

"This guy Yun not only killed Steller, but also destroyed the Temple of Light right under His Majesty's nose. Even with the monster invasion, the temple would have been destroyed if His Majesty had been there."

"But His Holiness the Pope is really feeling the sting of this, and if he knew that we can't do anything about that guy Yun, I'm afraid..."

Sigh~

Just as they were about to leave, a meteorite fell directly from the sky and crashed into the place where the light aura had just erupted. Sensing this, the two exchanged a glance and quickly flew into the city.

Fengyun, who had just arrived at the scene, looked at Doehring's soul in the air, which was burning its Spiritual Power to help Lin Lei break through, with a face full of frustration. He sighed inwardly, "I have been hiding for so many days, just waiting for this moment to make my move."

"But unexpectedly, Luoye discovered our whereabouts at this time, and we missed the opportunity to save you."

Burning one's soul to amplify Spiritual Power is acceptable in the Divine Plane, but in the Material Plane, where even increasing Spiritual Power can only be achieved through hard work over time, treasures that can be used to heal and restore the spirit and soul are simply out of the question.

After watching Doehring disappear, Fengyun sighed and then, with a thought, several Shadow Hand appeared around him, grabbing the remaining Special Class Steward and bringing them before Lin Lei for him to torture and kill to vent his anger!
