"Run!" A Lowgod who had luckily avoided the attack saw Sean kill three experts of the same rank in a single move and watched with his own eyes as two Godheads were collected. He was so terrified that his soul nearly left his body.

The other two were the same; they no longer cared about pride or face, wanting only to escape.

The three of them fled at high speed. By the moment Sean collected the Godheads, they had already escaped over half a kilometer away. At this point, even if Sean wanted to hunt them down, it would be difficult to wipe them all out.

However, the scene did not only consist of Sean and those few. Aside from maintaining the Radiant Magic Battle Formation, the Radiant Church had four other Lowgods who, upon seeing Sean display such terrifying power, had naturally already formed a pincer movement.

No matter which direction the three fleeing Darkness Church experts ran, they could not escape.

"Stop, brat! One day, I will kill you!" Patrick's threatening voice echoed in Sean's mind.

"That depends on whether you have the ability," Sean replied with a smile. Without a moment's hesitation, his figure lunged toward the three who were being surrounded.

"Hmph." Patrick's expression shifted, and he suddenly roared at the sky.

A massive amount of Death Midgod power surged from his body, covering a radius of several kilometers. All ordinary living creatures were reduced to ash in an instant, and even the six Lowgods maintaining the Radiant Magic Battle Formation were severely affected.

"Sean, be careful. This is Patrick's forbidden technique. Once unleashed, his power increases greatly, but it doesn't last long and causes significant damage to his body. He is currently taking advantage of the fact that Pali and the others have exhausted their Radiant divine power and are about to break free," the voice of the expert who cultivated the Destruction Law echoed in Sean's mind.

"Many thanks," Sean said with gratitude, though he did not change his strategy, adding, "I'll kill these people first."

Patrick's ultimate move caused his aura to grow terrifyingly. The thousands of Radiant Law filaments trapping him gradually collapsed in the face of such power.

"Haha! You can't trap me anymore! I will make everyone in your Radiant Church lose their souls!" Patrick laughed wildly.

He did not use divine sense transmission but instead used his divine power to amplify his voice. This single roar was enough to spread for hundreds of kilometers.

The protagonists of this chaotic battle were God-level experts, but in reality, a massive number of Saint-level and lower-level troops were also fighting. As soon as the Radiant Church's army heard this voice, their morale was immediately dealt a massive blow.

"Patrick, your enemy is us!" Suddenly, a bright white light erupted from the six Radiant Lowgods. A soul attack was launched from the six of them, converging into one point and striking toward Patrick like lightning.

"Hmph, you want to compare soul attacks with me?" Patrick was completely unfazed. He cultivated the Death Law, and his greatest strength was his soul.

Although these six had used a magic formation to concentrate their power, they were, after all, only Lowgods; their divine power was too weak.

A soul attack also shot out from Patrick's head, preparing to collide with the opponent's soul attack in mid-air. This would basically result in them canceling each other out, or even if one side were stronger, the remaining power would be negligible.

The two soul attacks collided. Patrick's was clearly stronger, but what remained posed no further threat.

However, just as Patrick was about to stop wasting time on these six turtles in their formation, the six Radiant Church Lowgods suddenly erupted with a dozen more bursts of soul energy, and a massive amount of golden light emerged from their bodies.

"Soul Golden Beads?" Patrick naturally knew what these were. His expression changed instantly, and he immediately communicated with the treasure in his sea of consciousness, his entire body also radiating a golden soul aura.

"To think that the 'merciful' Radiant Church actually possesses so many Soul Golden Beads! It seems you have killed no fewer people than I have," Patrick laughed.

"Hmph, our Church would never commit such insane acts. These were exchanged from another God-level expert," the leader of the six-man Radiant Church formation said.

"What a joke. You bought them, which is just using someone else's hands to slaughter living beings. What is the difference?" Patrick sneered.

"Hmph." The Radiant Church members did not reply again, instead absorbing the Soul Golden Beads with all their might to recover their souls and launch further soul attacks, hoping to stall Patrick.

They also knew that Sean's greatest strength was physical attacks; even if his soul was not weak, he could not be a match for a Midgod.

If it weren't for the magic formation passed down from the Radiant God Realm that provided auxiliary soul defense, the six of them would likely have been killed by the opponent's soul attacks long ago.

Now, all they needed to do was exhaust Patrick's soul energy.

On the other side, the three from the Darkness Church had already been trapped; at least for the short term, they could not escape. Sean rushed toward one of them, wasting no words and ignoring his pleas for mercy, killing him with a single sword strike.

"Go underground!" The two remaining survivors knew that Patrick could not reach them in time and now had to rely on themselves.

The two launched lightning-fast attacks; although they were repelled by the Radiant Church experts, they used the force of the recoil to dive into the ground, quickly vanishing from sight.

"Not good, it's the Earth Walk from the Earth Laws," the leader who cultivated the Destruction Law said with a frown.

For many years, the Radiant Church had maintained slight contact with the Radiant God Realm and also had a decent relationship with the Plane Overseer, so they knew of the mysteries and manifestations of many laws, though they did not know the cultivation methods.

Sean also immediately dove into the ground like lightning. Although he knew the basic Earth Walk magic, he certainly could not match the speed of an Earth-element God-level expert underground. However, using his powerful physical strength to force open a path was still within his capabilities.

"Haha! You can't catch me! The deeper you go, the harder the soil becomes. With your speed, it won't work," the Lowgod who cultivated the Earth Laws, seeing that their speeds were similar, immediately mocked Sean via telepathy.

The Earth Walk he used allowed him to merge his body with the earth. At the highest level, traveling underground was like moving through the air. This was the advantage of Earth-element experts; other experts really had to force their way through.

"Is that so? This distance is enough," Sean said indifferently. At the same time, the phantom of the God-Eater Rat appeared behind him once more, locking onto the two fleeing men. However, underground, no one could see it.

A strange soul fluctuation directly stripped the Godheads from the two fleeing men. Their bodies immediately stopped moving, and they no longer possessed any soul aura.

After collecting the new Godheads, Sean broke out of the ground once more.

At this moment, Patrick had also separated from the six-man formation. Clearly, he had discovered that all his subordinates and allies were dead; he was the only one left of the entire Darkness Church.

"Who exactly are you?" Patrick asked coldly.

Just a few minutes ago, he had held the absolute advantage, but now it was all gone. Admittedly, he was still invincible, but as a lone commander, it was impossible for him to control a large territory. In this way, he would also lose almost all of his faith power.
