Preparing to Take On the Radiant Church
News of Lin Feng and Haydson's battle was quickly relayed to the Holy Island by the Radiant Church's intelligence organization via flying magical beasts.
Despite the crashing waves, the Holy Island in the sea remained remarkably tranquil. It was also protected by the most powerful forces of the Radiant Church.
The ninth floor of the Radiant Temple.
Pope Heidens was quietly flipping through the Bible, a treasure of the Papacy, when suddenly a series of sharp knocks sounded at the door.
"Come in." Heidens' voice was as calm as ever.
Gilmer, dressed in a long red robe, strode in. He gazed intently at Pope Heidens and solemnly said, "Your Majesty, the results of Lin Feng's battle with Haydson are in."
Heidens looked up at Gilmer.
Gilmer's expression puzzled Heidens. He took the paper from Gilmer's hand and casually glanced at it, but his previously indifferent expression suddenly froze.
"Your Holiness?" Gilmer whispered.
Heidens sighed and tossed the paper onto the table. He stood up and walked to the French windows, gazing at the boundless ocean in the distance. "I knew Lin Feng was a genius, but I never expected him to have grown to this level in just ten years." Heidens had long anticipated Lin Feng's extraordinary talent; otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to such lengths to recruit him in Fenlai City.
Unfortunately, Lin Feng and the Radiant Church are destined to be enemies.
"Your Majesty, what should we do?" Gilmer asked in a low voice. "Lin Feng now seems to truly possess the strength of a top-tier expert in the Saint Realm."
"Haydson" Heidens remained looking out the window, his back to Gilmer. "Haydson is indeed very strong; even I would have to expend a great deal of effort to defeat him."
Although Haydson is hailed as the strongest in the Saint Realm, many have never been able to rival him. Besides those powerful figures who have been cultivating in seclusion for countless years, there are also the Pope of the Radiant Church, the Pope of Darkness, and some individuals who do not seek fame or fortune. These reclusive powerhouses are all formidable opponents.
The Fate Law is one of the three superior forms of magic.
The Fate Law at the peak of the Saint Realm is extremely terrifying, far more so than that of an ordinary Saint Realm mage. Heidens was confident that he could defeat Haydson at full strength.
But that's only under full-force conditions.
But Lin Feng can unleash six super "Dimensional Edge" in an instant; who can withstand such power?
"Given Lin Feng's strength, even if Wusenno and I attacked at the same time, we probably wouldn't be a match for Lin Feng. To kill Lin Feng, we'd need all the Vatican's top experts!" Heidens whispered.
"Even if we succeed, my Radiant Church will suffer great losses. Moreover, the Imperial Capital the O'Brien Empire is still the territory of the War God." A glint of gold appeared in Heidens' eyes.
Heidens was filled with rage!
"Bang!" The glass in front of them shattered into pieces.
"Why would Lin Feng become an enemy of our Holy See? Our Holy See believes we have treated him well. Why did he kill Lampson and Steller, thus disrupting our plans?"
Heidens still doesn't know why Lin Feng wants to be an enemy of the Radiant Church, and that's what troubles Heidens the most.
Heidens looked at Gilmer and could only announce helplessly, "Killing him would be too costly; we can't afford it. And there's no guarantee of success. From today onward, stop dealing with Lin Feng. If we don't provoke him, I don't believe he'll dare to attack Holy Island."
Now that things have come to this, the Radiant Church has no other choice.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Gilmer smiled bitterly to himself.
Gilmer couldn't help but recall the first time he met Lin Feng, which was in a hotel inside the Ernst Institute. At that time, Lin Feng was just a promising young man.
However, only ten years later!
That young man had become one of the strongest individuals in the entire Yulan, and even the Radiant Church couldn't do anything about him.
Heidens frowned.
His heart was filled with hatred!
Does the Holy Radiant Church truly lack the power to deal with Lin Feng? No, it does! Besides the Pope, the Chief Justice, and other publicly known peerless experts, the Radiant Church actually possesses several even more terrifying individuals. These individuals have cultivated for thousands of years, or even longer.
But
This group of people no longer serves the Radiant Church.
"This group of people has betrayed the Lord and only knows how to act for themselves!" Heidens was filled with rage. Those people were all very powerful, but they didn't care about the Lord of Light or their faith at all.
→
That group of people was once the pride of the Radiant Church. Some of them even included a former pope. But now, they probably wouldn't care even if the Radiant Church were to perish. Their goal is to become gods themselves!
Step into the realm of the gods!
"Your Holiness?" Gilmer called out softly when he noticed Heidens was distracted.
Heidens let out a long sigh, looked at Gilmer, and instructed him, "By the way, Gilmer, the defeat at the Dylan in the Magical Beast Mountain Range was too great for us; too many believers have died. We must speed up our progress in the Chaos Territory and let the Lord's light shine on that land."
Gilmer nodded immediately.
The more believers there are, the more blessings the Lord will bestow. The forty-eight duchies of the Chaos Territory are a tempting prize in the eyes of the Radiant Church, which has been cultivating the Chaos Territory for millennia. However, the Dark Church also aspires to conquer that land, and the struggle between the two great churches prevents either from succeeding. Beside the Chaos Territory lie the two great empires, the O'Brien Empire and the Luo'ao Empire, as well as the brutal steppe cavalry of the Far East Prairie.
Conquering the Chaos Territory is indeed difficult.
"Go ahead," Heidens said calmly.
As Gilmer left, Heidens felt a wave of weariness. "The Dark Church, the Chaos Territory, and Lin Feng, who poses an even greater threat."
He knew there was a threat, but what could he do?
A gentle breeze stirred Lin Feng's hair, but Lin Feng himself sat quietly on the ground, meditating with his eyes closed. His mind was completely in harmony with the wind.
"Whoosh!" Lin Feng felt the change in wind speed in the sky. The wind was strong at high altitudes, but the wind inside the mansion in the Imperial Capital was much weaker. The change in wind was reflected in Lin Feng's mind.
Lin Feng thoroughly enjoyed cultivation. Every enlightenment and every breakthrough was a sublimation of his soul and a transformation of his spirit!
That kind of emotion is deeply moving.
"Each time I try to comprehend it, I have a different feeling." Lin Feng opened his eyes, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
Lin Feng had a feeling that if he focused on mastering the profound mysteries of "Mysteries" or "slowness" that he had already reached the Mysteries of, he could break through the bottleneck, achieve great success, and become a god in less than a month.
But Lin Feng did not do that. Although becoming a god has many benefits, not only can one's strength greatly increase, but one's soul can also be qualitatively improved, and the speed of comprehending and deducing laws can also be greatly accelerated.
But Lin Feng always had a feeling that if he could master all nine Mysteries of the wind element during his time in the Saint Realm, and ideally, make them compatible with each other, then the possibility of him completely integrating the nine Mysteries into one and achieving the Paragon would be greater.
That's why Lin Feng has been hesitant to choose to become a god as soon as possible.
In pursuit of this profound feeling, Lin Feng not only continuously tried to comprehend new Mysteries, but also strived to make the Mysteries he had already grasped resonate with each other.
Lin Feng has now grasped the basics of the five profound Mysteries of the Laws of Wind Elements: "Wind Element", "Wind Walk", "Fast", "Slow", and "Dimension".
"Fast" and "Slow" have already merged more than half of them, and "Wind Element" and "Wind Walk" have also begun to merge. Only "Dimension" seems to be very unique and difficult to merge with other elements, and even if they do merge, it is difficult to achieve.
"Brother!" Wharton, Barker Five Brothers ran over.
"I knew you guys were coming." Lin Feng stood up with a smile, sensing the rhythm of the wind. Lin Feng naturally sensed Wharton and the others approaching.
After everyone finished lunch.
"Sessler." Lin Feng stood up and greeted Sessler with a smile, then led Sessler to his courtyard, where the two sat down facing each other.
"Lord Lin Feng, is there anything I can help you with?" Sessler asked, puzzled.
Lin Feng's expression was complicated. He sighed and said, "Sessler, you should know about my Baruch Clan's affairs, right?" Having been in the Count's Mansion for so long, Sessler naturally knew everything.
Sessler nodded immediately.
Lin Feng said indifferently, "My parents are both dead, and the culprit is the Radiant Church. I have long ago sworn that one day I will uproot the Radiant Church."
Sessler also knew that Lin Feng was his target.
Lin Feng looked at Sessler: "I know my own strength is steadily improving. Especially with the addition of Beibei, Haeru, and the Barker Five Brothers, I am confident in facing the Radiant Church. I am ready to begin dealing with the Radiant Church!"
