God-level Experts of the Radiant Church

"If this Midgod wants to run, we really can't catch him!" Sean's divine sense locked onto Patrick, but the speed of the other party was so great that he simply couldn't keep up.

Relying on his God-Eater Rat body—which hadn't consumed enough Godheads—along with his semi-fused profound mysteries and an offensive Sovereign Artifact, his material attacks could barely fight to a draw against a Midgod of the Death Law who wasn't specialized in material attacks.

In terms of soul, his own attacks weren't worth mentioning, and for defense, he relied on a damaged soul-defensive Sovereign Artifact, while the natural gray halo of the God-Eater Rat also provided a certain degree of soul protection.

Coupled with the ability to instantly refine Amethyst or Soul Golden Bead, he could block a Midgod's attacks, but he didn't have many Amethyst or Soul Golden Bead left in his possession.

However, when it came to speed, he was lacking; he had no treasures capable of increasing his speed by several times, or at least, he didn't have any.

If Patrick truly wanted to escape, there was really no way to keep him there, unless he used Sovereign Power again.

In a short while, Patrick was already a thousand miles away, and then his aura vanished instantly.

If a Midgod conceals their aura, a Lowgod cannot detect them. Previously, he had been in a state of battle with his aura exposed, but now that he had run far away and concealed his aura, Sean and the others had no idea where he was.

It was even possible that the man could approach again, and Sean and the others wouldn't even know.

"Sean, I am Mi Piaozheng of the Radiant Church, and I can be considered the current leader of the Radiant Church. Welcome back to the Radiant Church." The Lowgod powerhouse who cultivated the Destruction Law flew forward and said.

"Hello, and greetings to everyone else." Sean smiled and put away the weapon in his hand.

The leader of the Radiant Church was actually someone who cultivated the Destruction Law; it sounded a bit ridiculous, but in the Coiling Dragon world, it was perfectly normal. Everyone gathered together merely for the sake of faith energy.

Whatever the laws were, they didn't matter. Even though Sean cultivated the Darkness Law, didn't he still help the Radiant Church beat the Darkness Church to a pulp?

A church was merely a tool. As far as Sean knew, there were many wandering god-level powerhouses who established their own empires as a means to obtain faith energy.

During the exchange just now, Sean had clearly felt that this Mi Piaozheng's strength was the greatest, especially in terms of material attacks.

If it weren't for the material attack amplification provided by his God-Eater Rat body, and if he had relied solely on profound mysteries, even with a bit of fusion, he might not necessarily have been a match for him.

The four supreme laws had no fixed profound mysteries; one relied entirely on their own comprehension. Once they reached a certain level, they could become a Lowgod, Midgod, or Highgod.

In Sean's estimation, this man was likely quite close to independently becoming a Midgod.

"Let me make some introductions." Mi Piaozheng said with a smile, then proceeded to introduce the other nine people to Sean.

Sean could now be considered to have met the god-level experts of the Radiant Church one by one. A dozen years ago, they were great, lofty existences to him.

But now, the gap had narrowed significantly; it was Sean who had become stronger.

"Sean, how did you...?" The Lowgod who cultivated the Life Law, Hua Muyuan, asked curiously.

The other god-level experts also cast curious gazes toward Sean. Going from rank 8 to god-level in just over a dozen years made their understanding of this world and the laws feel somewhat shattered.

"Hua Muyuan, everyone has their own secrets; don't ask too much." Mi Piaozheng, the leader, quickly interjected.

In truth, he also wanted to know why, but Sean's strength was too great. Although he belonged to their side now, it had been a very short time, and it wouldn't be wise to offend him.

How could a Lowgod be this strong? It even made him wonder if he himself was still very far from upgrading to a Midgod.

Furthermore, the fact that Sean, as a Lowgod, could block a Midgod's soul attack didn't fit the logic he knew.

"Haha, that's true. I just felt it was too incredible. My apologies, Sean." Hua Muyuan also realized she had been too abrupt; asking about such secrets was indeed a major taboo.

"Now that Patrick has run away, what should be done about these people?" Sean naturally didn't want to dwell on that topic.

Previously, he had thought about finding some plausible reason, but that was only in preparation for when he returned to the Radiant Church to brush off questions. Whether others believed it or not, finding an excuse would at least be giving them face.

But now, that wasn't necessary. After this battle, even Patrick might not be confident in his ability to hurt him.

At most, the two of them would be unable to do anything to each other. Within the Radiant Church, he was absolutely the number one person; who would dare to offend him over such a matter?

Of course, one still had to give everyone face; there was no need to deliberately put on airs.

The Darkness Church had launched an attack, and they hadn't just sent god-level experts; they had also sent a large number of Saint-level and sub-Saint-level experts.

The Darkness Church's plan was likely for Patrick to use time to wear down the Radiant Church's magic formations, then kill the god-level experts or drive them out of the Zhongyuan Continent material plane to achieve final victory.

However, god-level experts generally wouldn't involve themselves in occupying territory or hunting down the numerous members of the Radiant Church.

Unfortunately, Sean's sudden appearance had nearly wiped out the god-level experts of the Darkness Church, and the momentum of offense and defense had immediately shifted.

"Don't let a single one of them go." A Radiant Lowgod said coldly, "When Shengyue City was slaughtered, it was basically these people who did it. Also, if you hadn't appeared suddenly, Sean, once we were defeated, this place would likely have suffered the same fate as Shengyue City."

"That's right, especially the Saint-levels. Among them are some peak Saint-levels. If they suddenly become gods and cooperate with Patrick, it would be a trouble for us," another person added.

Patrick was a Midgod; that was a fact. Even if they joined forces, unless that guy was foolish enough not to run, it would be possible to kill him, but otherwise, it was very difficult.

But now, because of Sean's sudden intervention, only one god-level remained within the Darkness Church. As long as their side was careful, their safety would be greatly increased, and they could even launch a counterattack.

Since they couldn't eliminate the strongest enemy, they would eliminate all his subordinates, and at the same time, avenge the countless souls who had been slaughtered.

"Fine, I agree with this." Sean nodded and said. When dealing with enemies, one had to be straightforward; if they needed to be wiped out, they should be wiped out.

Especially those who might pose a threat in the future. He would need a massive amount of faith energy in the future, so this Darkness Church had to die, not to mention the hundreds of millions of lives slaughtered around Shengyue City.

"Alright, the Darkness Church has quite a few Saint-levels. If our armies go up against them, I'm afraid there will be losses. Let's do it ourselves," another person said with a laugh.

When dealing with enemies, they didn't need to worry about rank. Anyone who thought face was more important than their own subordinates was an idiot.

"Agreed." The others also concurred.

When several god-level experts decided to take action, the fate of those Saint-levels was already sealed.

PS: A question—is starting a Coiling Dragon fanfic in a material plane a bad idea? I won't change this one, but if I write another, I need to treat it with caution.
