"After waiting for so long, haha, King of Chambord, you've finally arrived?" The benevolent priest who suddenly appeared looked at Sun Fei with a smile on his face, as if greeting a long-lost old friend.
"You know me? Waiting for me? Who are you?" Sun Fei calmly hid the green gemstone in his palm, secretly surprised.
This white-haired old master was incredibly powerful. He had only been discovered after intruding within a hundred meters of him. He was at least a high-level expert at the Rising Sun Stage. According to the Holy Church's allocation of priests in the various empires, the strongest Church of the Lyon Empire should only be at the Moon Class Great Perfection. There should absolutely not be a priest at the Great Sun-Rank Venerable.
Moreover, although the white-haired, white-bearded master before him had a peaceful appearance, Sun Fei still felt that something was slightly off, and that he exuded an extremely dangerous aura.
"Haha, little fellow, you've come to my place, and you dare to ask me who I am?" The old priest slowly took a few steps, gently stroking the rows of wooden chairs beside him with his withered fingers. He looked up at Sun Fei with a strange gaze and smiled eerily, "Four days ago, everyone in Gerland City called me John the Glory. I was the person in charge here, a servant of God."
"Four days ago, so what about now?" Sun Fei slowly gathered his strength, cautiously on guard.
"Now? Hahahaha, now?" A Bloody light flashed in the old priest's eyes as he threw his head back and laughed loudly, "Now, I am a god myself, a god who controls everything."
"It's you?" Sun Fei immediately understood.
His King flashed, transforming into a streak of light. In an instant, the [ Whirlwind Slash ] transformed into a golden sword dragon, roaring out and attacking the elderly divine master a hundred meters away. At the same moment, a pale silver scroll was unfurled, and Sun Fei approached the old divine master. From the [ Scroll of God Imprisonment ], tadpole-like, shimmering Divine Runes flew out, enveloping the old divine master.
Because those two Bloody beams of light were extremely familiar to Sun Fei.
This was the very same blood-red light that had once appeared in the dark eye sockets of that Golden Skeleton. Its shape, color, and aura fluctuations were all etched in Sun Fei's memory. Without a doubt, this elderly divine master named John had suffered the same fate as [ One Sword ], being possessed by that Golden Skeleton.
Hehehe... hehehehehe!
A series of owl-like sneers came from the white-haired master's mouth. Facing Sun Fei's merciless attack, he wore a strange and bewitching smile, his wrinkles spreading out like a chrysanthemum about to wither, showing no intention of Avoid or taking the blow head-on.
Boom boom boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A series of loud impacts and explosions suddenly occurred.
When the golden sword energy dragon unleashed by [ Whirlwind Slash ] was one meter away from the white-haired master, a pure white light screen, as clear as crystal, suddenly appeared from the ground, blocking all attacks. The blow, powerful enough to level mountains, only created ripples and a dragon-shaped dent in the Crystal Wall, but ultimately failed to shatter it.
The Divine Runes released by the [ Scroll of God Imprisonment ] were blocked by this Crystal Wall and failed to accurately lock onto the target. Inside the Crystal Wall, they transformed into a silver prison, which was empty.
The next instant, Sun Fei's third wave of attacks arrived.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!!!!!!!!!!
A series of heavy punches slammed into the Crystal Wall, each punch enough to blast away a newly ascended Great Sun Class expert. However, the Crystal Wall remained unmoved. Occasionally, fine, dense white cracks would appear, but they would quickly disappear as the entire First Church Hall suddenly shone with a bright white light, and the Crystal Wall returned to its original state.
"Haha, hahaha, it's useless. Stop struggling. The [ Lament of Divine Grace ] that I spent four days preparing especially for you is not something that can be broken by power of this level, King of Chambord. Hahaha, it's all over. Your good luck will not continue."
The white-haired master laughed heartily, his messy white hair dancing wildly without wind. Two blood-red flames replaced his pupils in his sunken eye sockets, flickering wildly, making him as suffocating as a demon.
At this moment, a strange and terrifying change occurred.
On the once smooth and spotless church floor, white lines began to spread and extend, from the floor to the four walls, then to the dome, then to the stone pillars, then to the wooden chairs, and finally to the statues...
White patterns eventually filled the entire church, even the lamps on the walls and the soft wax of the white candles shimmered with a gentle silvery-white light. Almost instantly, the beautiful yet deadly white patterns densely covered the entire space, like a quietly blooming white rose, with an unimaginable, overwhelming power slowly emerging.
This is a massive and extremely complex God Level magic circle.
The vast array of magical circuits, like a sea of stars, was enough to make one dizzy at first glance.
Sun Fei was positioned right at the very center of the magic circle.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, so fast that even Sun Fei couldn't react in time.
This was clearly pre-planned and meticulously planned. The moment Sun Fei stepped into the center of the formation, it was activated immediately. Sun Fei guessed that the formation had probably already been quietly activated when he stepped into the First Church. The white-haired master—or more precisely, the Golden Skeleton —had deliberately appeared and distracted him with words in order to ensure the formation could be activated smoothly and bind him within it.
This was a conspiracy that had been planned long ago.
"Damn it, why is this happening? Did Lloris deceive me?"
The thought flashed through Sun Fei's mind, but he immediately dismissed Sun Fei.
Having gone through thick and thin together, Sun Fei had complete faith in his former enemy, Lloris, that he was definitely not that kind of person.
"It seems Lloris was merely manipulated by the Golden Skeleton. That damned skeleton knows everything that's happened lately; it must have known he was desperate to find it, which is why it set up this trap... A terrifyingly cunning opponent lurking in the shadows. I was far too careless this time."
Sun Fei had roughly guessed some of the clues.
However, at this moment, there was clearly no energy to pursue these meaningless questions; the most urgent task was to escape from this so-called [ Sigh of Divine Grace ] formation.
Sun Fei quickly calmed down and began to carefully observe the white patterns on all four sides, hoping to use his relatively extensive knowledge of magic array patterns to find some flaws in the magic circuits and break this terrifying magic array.
Just then, an astonishing change occurred.
