Angels Descend

No matter how Luo Jun attacked, whether with punches, kicks, internal energy, or weapons, he couldn't break through Mosayus's defenses...

But the Light Spear that suddenly shot out actually pierced directly into Mosayus's body!

Luo Jun was certain that it wasn't because the skin's elasticity caused it to sink in, because as the spear pierced through, a pale blue liquid slowly flowed down...

Mosayus is bleeding!

This monster, created to hunt down a wounded Deity, is actually injured!

But that wasn't all. A colossal and holy illusion descended from the sky—a warrior over a thousand meters tall, clad in magnificent plate armor. This colossal warrior possessed a cluster of enormous wings of light on its back. With a flap of its wings, it flew to Mosayus, grabbed the spear, and yanked it out with tremendous force. Blue blood gushed from the wound, cascading down like a waterfall into the Paramis City, instantly flooding two streets and even destroying several houses...

Mosayus let out a scream and opened his mouth to bite the huge winged warrior. The holy warrior raised his spear to block the attack, then vibrated his wings and pushed forward with great force.

Although the Lightwing Warrior was far smaller than Mosayus in terms of size, appearing from a distance as if a human were facing an elephant, the warrior's strength was surprisingly great, pushing Mosayus backward and away from Paramis City!

"That's an angel?" Luo Jun stared blankly at the back of the winged warrior, his face filled with shock. "What is that?"

"Angels are the term used in the Holy See to refer to those Ascension Expert," Old Yuan explained. "They believe that the Ascension Power is a blessing from the Heavenly Father Dias, and all those Ascension Expert are Dias's apostles, that is, angels!"

"Currently, the entire Holy See, and even the entire Xiluo, including Pope Magnus, has a total of three angels. Judging from this ability to summon a giant holy warrior, it should be Yulia who has come..."

"Yulia?" This was the first time Luo Jun had heard this name.

"Yes, she is the newest angel of the Holy See, having broken through to the Ascension Realm a few years ago. However, she possesses exceptional talent, with dual talents in both Spell Faction and Creation Faction. Her Ultimate Move is summoning this Giant of Light, which has the power to destroy a country in an instant."

Seeing the Giant of Light brutally beating Mosayus, Luo Jun nodded in agreement.

Putting everything else aside, a Giant over a thousand meters tall, if he could move freely, could destroy a city just by rolling around on the ground a few times...

Moreover, this Giant appears to be incredibly strong, capable of withstanding the much larger Mosayus, and may possess other abilities as well. The idea of him instantly destroying a nation is no exaggeration...

"But didn't you say that last time Mosayus awoke, it took the Pope and several top- Peak to barely suppress her...?" Luo Jun asked worriedly, "This time, with only her alone... don't you need our help?"

"No need," Old Yuan waved his hand. "In the century since humanity began exploring other worlds, our understanding of primordial energy has deepened continuously. Fifty years ago, the overall level of Cultivators was not as high as it is now, and the number of top experts was also much smaller."

"Things are different now. The Main World has several more Feather Transformation than before, their understanding of primordial energy is deeper, and there are more legendary and even Myth Noble Phantasms... In short, angels are stronger now than they were back then..."

At this point, a hint of melancholy appeared in Old Yuan's eyes. "Of the old comrades who fought alongside me back then, those who are still alive have all become even stronger, only I... sigh..."

"Don't be sad, Master..." Luo Jun laughed, "I assure you, none of their disciples are as promising as you!"

Old Yuan looked at Luo Jun, his eyes filled with a mixture of kindness and pride, then raised his hand and tapped him on the head. "You brat, don't get carried away. You still have a long way to go in your cultivation journey!"

Luo Jun covered his forehead, looking aggrieved, and said, "I know, Master..."

As they were speaking, a dazzling red light suddenly shone on the distant battlefield of giant beasts!

It was Mosayus! The monster's red eyes gleamed again as it gathered power, preparing to fire!

Upon seeing this, the Light-Winged Giant took to the air, and more than a dozen Light Spear appeared behind it, which it fired at Mosayus's large red eyeballs!

Boom!

A beam of red light shot out, clashing head-on with the Light Spear!

Kara!

The first Light Spear shattered into a mist of light the moment it touched the red light. The second spear followed, then the third, the fourth, and so on. One Light Spear after another joined head to tail, shattering one after another, while the red light grew weaker and weaker with each collision!

Even after all the Light Spear dissipated, the red light remained unblocked and shot straight towards the Light-Winged Giant, though it was noticeably dimmer.

The Giant clapped his hands together, conjuring a regular hexagonal Holy Shield that perfectly blocked the red light!

The red and white clashed fiercely, bursting into intense sparks. Finally, as Mosayus exhausted himself, the red light completely dissipated. The Light-Winged Giant raised his hand, removed the Holy Shield, and transformed it into Light Spear, charging towards Mosayus.

This time, after firing the cannon, Mosayus was clearly exhausted. Facing the charging Light-Winged Giant, he immediately turned around, retracted the huge fleshy pillar and the three snail heads that served as supports, and closed the two halves of the huge snail shell again. His entire body was retracted into the shell, and even the entrance to the giant shell was sealed with a hard cover. He lay down on the desert like a conch shell that had fallen on the beach.

The Light-Winged Giant wielded its Light Spear spear, unleashing a barrage of attacks on the snail shell, but could only break through the outer calcified outer layer. This snail shell also seemed to be a composite structure, divided into many layers from the inside out, with a flexible inner layer that was extremely difficult to damage, even the Giant's Light Spear could not penetrate it.

"It looks like it's going into hibernation..." Old Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. "That last shot, the most powerful one, completely exhausted the monster's energy. It tried to devour the city to replenish its energy but failed, so it can only go into hibernation on the spot..."

"However, this place is close to the edge of the desert, and there isn't a thick enough layer of sand to cover its body, so it can only sleep in the open like this."

No sooner had he finished speaking than billowing red smoke suddenly poured out from the cracks in the snail's shell, clearly indicating that Mosayus was preparing to use the previous red mist to conceal his slumbering place...

But the Light-Winged Giant clearly had no intention of letting it hibernate so close to the city. It rushed forward, forcefully lifted Mosayus's shell upright, and then rolled it towards the center of the desert like a tire...

"They're going to push it all the way back to the center of the Hairub Desert?" Luo Jun exclaimed in shock, watching the massive figure slowly disappear into the distance. "That's a huge undertaking. Can they even handle it?"

Although Luo Jun possessed a capacity of over 500,000, looking at that High Mountain- like Light-Winged Giant, who knew how much energy it would take to maintain it? If it were only used for short-term combat, that would be fine, but for such a long journey? He didn't even dare to think about it...

Old Yuan shook his head. "Upon reaching the Ascension Realm, the level of life is completely different, and the method of using vital energy is no longer the same. They don't just rely on their own vital energy to use power, but can mobilize the power of heaven and earth. For experts who can cultivate to the Ascension Realm, qi is no longer such an important attribute."

"And although it looks slow from a distance, this giant snail shell can roll for more than ten kilometers in one go. Rolling back would be much faster than him slowly crawling over... At this speed, it should be able to get back in two or three hours."
