Chapter 391 Soul Reaper

The strong winds that blow in the Andes Mountains all year round may have felt tired and stopped for a rare moment.

Even so, the temperature here is still very low, and the air is filled with bone-chilling cold.

The gathering place of the Kurud tribe, the Temple of Kusuun.

The stone walls of the hall are carved with rough murals, with black and scarlet being the main tones of the paintings.

The twisted human bodies crawled at the feet of the evil god, and the piles of corpses silently declared the evil of the gods.

Somla stood in front of the gray cocoon. At this moment, the cocoon had cracked into several palm-wide gaps. Dark green light shone from it, and a soul-freezing malice surrounded the hall.

Somla felt goose bumps on the back of his hand after being stimulated. He felt a huge will descending on him. The powerful pressure made him frightened and even felt his legs become sore and weak.

His heart was filled with fear but also joy.

Although it is still unclear what abilities this clan of gods has, he can feel their power.

The more powerful the gods' followers are, the easier it will be to execute their plans.

The cracks on the gray cocoon became more and more numerous and larger, until it finally shattered to the ground, revealing the creature gestating inside.

This creature is actually not tall. It is a human-sized creature, but it has no entity. It floats in the air and is composed of a dark green light and shadow.

There is a layer of black skin covering the body, and there is an object that looks like a goat skull at the head. On the skull there are three half-meter-long tentacles composed of bone joints.

In its hand, it held a long curved stick with a lantern tied to it. It could be seen that the stick was made of finger bones glued together.

The outer layer of the lantern is a grid made of unknown material, and inside is a ball of pale flame.

Somla noticed that there were countless gray and distorted shadows in the flames, and he could faintly hear countless souls wailing and crying.

A feeling of sadness and despair rose from the bottom of his heart. At this moment, he felt that life was meaningless and he just wanted to fly into the pale flame like a moth.

He was startled awake by a faint laughter, and only then did he notice that he had come to the side of the god's followers without knowing when, and was stretching his head to get closer to the lantern.

When his consciousness returned to his body, Somla realized belatedly that his consciousness seemed to have been burned in a furnace for a long time, and his whole body felt burned.

'I am the most outstanding creation of the great Kusuun - the Soul Reaper. I wander between reality and illusion, and souls are my toys.

Mortal, I can see through the filth and cowardice in your heart. I don't care what your motives are. Your actions must be guided by the will of the great Kusuen. It is your responsibility to fight against the pagans.

If I find out that you're doing something that's interfering with the gods' business, hey, I'll collect your soul into my lantern.

Believe me, death is not terrible. Once you enter my soul lantern, you will experience endless pain and despair.'

A sinister voice sounded directly in his mind. Somla was startled and quickly lowered his head and said, "The will of the great Kusuen is my mission."

'That better be true.'

The Soul Reaper floated up, and the green light in his eyes became brighter.

'Tell me if there are any powerful souls among the enemies. Forget about those rubbish that haven't even reached the silver level. The fourth level is the minimum standard for my collection.

Playing with the souls of the strong is my hobby. If you can provide information about the target of a powerful soul, I will reward you greatly.'

A look of surprise appeared on Somla's face. He just happened to have such a powerful enemy.

He immediately repeated Clown's information: "After leaving the Andes Mountains, there is a city controlled by the followers of the evil god Hephaestus. We once attacked there, but the enemy was too powerful and completely suppressed our troops.

Among them, there was one person who was particularly powerful. He broke the fatal attack of two fifth-order soul-eating jellyfish and even killed the soul-eating jellyfish in return.

He has a pair of golden wings and is very fast. Our plan to use our large army to consume the enemy failed, and we had no choice but to retreat back to the Andes Mountains. "

The Soul Reaper immediately became interested. He had the means to spy on the secrets held by the collected souls, and the more powerful the soul, the more powerful it would be to him.

'Has this person reached the sixth level?'

He was well aware of the situation of the soul-eating jellyfish. Only a sixth-level extraordinary creature could kill two soul-eating jellyfish when trapped.

Somla shook his head and said, "Probably not. Judging from the degree to which he has mastered the power of the law, he is very different from you, sir.

Besides, if the enemy is at level six, we might not be able to come back from the last time we attacked the pagans."

The Soul Reaper's black head floating in the green light nodded slightly:

"Tell me everything you know. I'm interested in hunting."

Somla was delighted and told everyone the information he knew.

If the other party can solve the toughest problem, their plan will be half successful.

However, the most important thing is to convince the Soul Reapers to cooperate with the main force. As long as they can prevent the enemy from activating the magic circle, the entire city will be their hunting ground.

The great Kusuun would be pleased with his sacrifice, and perhaps the gods would grant him further advancement.

Lantimat Cathedral, Kingdom of Ribia.

Pierre reported the intelligence that happened in the city of Hamers and lowered his eyes waiting for the Pope's instructions.

This time the matter was handled very poorly and there was no result at all.

Anthony frowned and looked serious. He originally expected that the agreement on the medicine transaction could be reached, and at most the monthly supply would not be much.

Now, the transaction agreement has not been reached. It seems that the other party does not take the Church of the God of Knowledge seriously.

The other party was not in the Kingdom of Ribia, so even if he wanted to force him to submit, he was unable to do so.

"How many silver-level people are there in Clown's circle? Have you done a detailed investigation? Sit down, sit down and tell me."

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Pierre leaned forward, half sitting on the chair, and said, "We have investigated and found that Klauen has three silver-level tamed beasts. His wife is a direct descendant of the McLean family of the Budamia Kingdom and has reached the silver level. This is his direct subordinate force.

In addition, the McLean family established a branch in Hamers City. The head of the branch was named Audrey, who was also at the fourth level.

The two bishops in the cities of Crown and Hamers are close friends. These two bishops are a couple and are also at the fourth level.

Cardinal Flanders of the Rhine Diocese also has a good relationship with him, and there are several silver-level cardinals in his social circle.

According to my research, the Clown ties are deeply rooted in the dioceses in the north of the Farouk Kingdom.”

Anthony listened carefully, tapping the table regularly with his fingers, and said, "The title of the first fifth-order extraordinary person in the entire continent is still very impressive. In a short period of time, he has built up a network of contacts that other families would need decades to accumulate.

The McLean family is a top force comparable to several large dioceses, yet they have placed their bets on the other party.

However, he cannot be so rude and rude to refute our face! I will inform Arthur Saxon that the mines they ordered will be delayed due to production schedule reasons.

The Church of the God of Life and the Church of the God of Harvest will also respond by reducing their exchanges with the Church of the Lord of Flame.

Arthur will soon understand why we do this. We cannot directly influence Crown, but someone will help us fulfill our wishes. "

"Your Majesty, that's a good idea," Pierre flattered.

He hesitated for a moment and said:

"But although Arthur is the Pope of the Church of the Lord of Fire, he is only a fourth-level transcendent. It is difficult for him to suppress Clown with his strength."

Although the Pope's status is honorable, this title is not so useful in a world where great power belongs to oneself.

"Haha, that's Arthur's problem, let them worry about it."

Anthony had a smile on his face. Some time ago, Flandre sent a message saying that Arthur had purchased high-quality life essence liquid from the Church of the God of Life.

It seems that Arthur also understands that his level is too low, which will lead to a situation where the master is weak and the ministers are strong, so he is preparing to break through to the fifth level.

If Arthur succeeds in advancing, he will definitely want to demonstrate his power and declare that he has absolute control over the kingdom.

Pierre smiled and said, "This is called using force to suppress others, and we don't need to do anything. Your Majesty, your wisdom makes me ashamed.

This time when we went to Hamers City, we discovered that there was a special magic circle in Crown's castle. It had the power of purification during the day and nourished the soul at night. It was very magical.

If we can learn how to build this array."

"Is the magic circle you mentioned really that good?"

"Your Majesty, you didn't see it with your own eyes. At night, the magic circle will emit a silver light.

The spiritual light shot straight up into the sky, piercing through the thick gray fog. From the castle of Clown, one could see the brilliant starry sky that one had not seen for a long time. "

"Such a good magic circle is worth promoting throughout the continent. Spread the news, I believe there will be many interested forces. Then, we can fish in troubled waters."

Eliza felt the pressure emanating from the dragon soul, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.

Even though she had seen the dragon soul many times, she still couldn't hide the shock in her heart.

She was skeptical about the idea of ​​bloodline suppression, but ever since she saw the dragon soul stimulated by her husband's breathing practice, she believed it without a doubt.

Clown sensed his wife's arrival and stopped activating Breath of the Fire Dragon.

As the breathing method stopped, the wild aura emanating from him quickly dissipated without a trace like morning mist seeing the sun.

"Why are you here?"

Normally, no one would disturb him while he was practicing breathing techniques.

Eliza smiled and said, "I have practiced the Savage Bone Breathing Technique to the level you requested. I can now learn the breathing technique you created."

It had been several months since she reached Silver level, and her progress during this time was minimal because she had spent most of her time learning the Savage Bone Breathing Technique.

Now, finally, all the hard work has paid off and I can learn the silver-level breathing method.

"Haha, congratulations."

Crown praised, "It's faster than I expected. Now I will pass on the new breathing method to you."

He passed on the abridged version of the Silver Dragon Roaring Moon Breathing Method through the Golden Light Dao Seed. The power of the new version was slightly weaker than the one he practiced himself. After all, he had a plug-in and was not afraid of the difficulty of the breathing method. Others did not have such a buggy ability.

Eliza pursed her lips, seeming to want to say something but stopped herself.

Seeing her like this, Clown asked curiously, "What else?"

"Recently, I've seen you working day and night to improve yourself. Have you anticipated anything? If there are any difficulties or obstacles in the future, please tell me so that we can face them together."

Eliza knew that the higher the level of extraordinary people, the more likely they were to see a fragment of the future.

Her husband had been working much harder lately than when they first got married, so she wondered if he had foreseen some dark future.

She paused, then continued, "The future is not predetermined. If you see a cruel vision, it doesn't necessarily mean it will happen."

"Haha, I don't foresee any dark future."

Crown gave his wife a warm hug and whispered in her ear:

“I feel that I’ve been in very good shape recently, and both my Golden Light Mantra and breathing techniques have improved very quickly.

That’s why I try my best to improve myself, because there are not many opportunities like this.”

Eliza lowered her eyebrows slightly and said uncertainly, "Really? You're not comforting me because you think I can't help?"

"My explanation sounds like comfort?!"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"I'm glad you're okay," Eliza laughed and left her husband's arms, "I'm going to the training ground next door, let's cheer together."

Crown smiled as he watched his wife leave, then summoned a wall of gold.

[Breath of Flame Dragon: 110264/240000; Level 2]

[Silver Dragon Roaring Moon: 61328/240000; Level 2]

In just a few days, my proficiency in the breathing technique has greatly improved. The most gratifying thing is that this growth rate shows no signs of slowing down.

When spring comes and flowers bloom, these two breathing methods will surely reach the edge of advancement.

At that time, he was really just one step away from achieving the Stigma Gold.

The thought of becoming a god filled Clown with energy again.

He began to circulate the Breath of the Flame Dragon, and the dragon soul emerged, emitting bursts of blazing spiritual power.

Time is like a rushing river, sweeping away the past, and another half a month has passed.

Klauen slightly closed his eyes, golden-purple light covering his eyelids, and he was summoning a golden wall to check.

[Golden Light Mantra: 499999/500000; Level 5]

[Breath of Flame Dragon: 239999/240000; Level 2]

[Silver Dragon Roaring Moon: 239999/240000; Level 2]

All the blood in his body has been replaced with silver blood, which is like mercury without a trace of other colors.

Through introspection, he saw that on the jade-white bones, the Taiyin Thunder Seal and the Taiyang Thunder Seal were both complete.

Crown felt an unprecedented sense of power rising from his heart, but he never took the final step.

He felt that an invisible barrier was restricting him, but he had no idea how to break the shackles.

"There must be some condition that I have not fulfilled, but what is it exactly?" he whispered to himself.

He began to suspect that there were things that were not recorded in the church's books, which was possible.

He decided to wait a little longer to see if he could find anything.

If there is still no clue, the only option is to go to the Vatican and have a frank talk with the Pope, or ask for help from the McLean family.

Clown relaxed, feeling somewhat bewildered. Now that he had no combat skills to practice, he felt a little overwhelmed.

Think about it, since he came into this world, he has hardly ever relaxed, and hard work and striving are his labels.

He summoned a golden wall and began to examine it carefully. He was going to find an auxiliary skill to pass the time.

The forging skill came into view, and he saw that this skill had reached the ultimate level. If he worked harder, he would be able to push it to the extreme.

In his hand, he happened to have a fire dragon spirit sent by Hei Suo, and he was going to forge a soul-infused weapon with the power to slay evil.

In addition, the forging of Arcturus' armor must also be put on the agenda, otherwise it would be a waste of the huge size of the Northern Giant Bear.

The Papal Palace of St Peter's Basilica in Blaye.

Lexis described the current situation of the church, with anger flashing in his eyes: "The Church of the God of Knowledge wrote to say that the delivery of the rare mines will be delayed due to the lack of a key raw material; the Church of the God of Life has suspended the supply of the Water of Life, using the excuse that the Tree of Life has withered, but as far as I know, the supply of potions to the Church of the God of Knowledge has not been affected.

Winter is about to pass, and spring plowing will begin as soon as the temperature rises, but the Church of the God of the Harvest is experiencing a shortage of high-quality seeds, and it is a large-scale shortage.

These three churches have always stood together, and they are trying to suppress us.”

Arthur frowned and said, "What is their motive for doing this? Things can't happen without reason. They must have something to ask for. This is another way of reminding us."

After thinking for a moment, Arthur spoke again:

"There are things they can't do, but we can do. What could it be?"

Lexis slapped his thigh suddenly and said:

"They went to Hammers City some time ago, but they only stayed for a short time. Was it because they had a conflict with Clown?"

“It’s possible that they want a share of the Golden Light Potion, but this potion is a unique secret recipe of Crown, and no one else can make it.

Maybe he was upset about being humiliated, so he wanted to get back at them.

Send someone to Hamers City to inquire about the situation so that I can respond accordingly."

Lexis laughed strangely and said:

"If it is true as you said, that Clown has a conflict with them, how do we deal with it?"

This is a tricky issue. They are caught between two forces, and no matter how they deal with it, neither side will be satisfied.

"Of course I stand on the side of Clown. No matter what the cause of the incident is, Clown is the bishop of the Church of the God of Fire."

Arthur spoke with great righteousness, but he knew in his heart that the main reason was that Crown was too strong. It was reasonable for him to support Crown.

Lexis laughed out loud with gloating:

"Then let's not respond to the whole thing and see how it turns out."

Arthur was also gloating. He shook his head and said, "They don't know what kind of person they have offended. The first fifth-order transcendent in the entire continent, and also the first sixth-order transcendent! The importance of this cannot be underestimated by anyone.

Even if someone says that Clown will become a god in the future, I still believe it, at least I believe it very much for now."

Deep in the Andes Mountains, the Temple of Kusuun.

The meeting hall was solemn and dignified. The Soul Reaper sat on the bone throne, and Somla sat on his right.

"Uh-huh"

The witch doctor coughed twice to clear his throat, and said solemnly: "Everyone, the temperature outside the Andes Mountains has been rising. In at most half a month, the snow will completely melt.

After discussion between the Soul Reaper and I, we decided to move out of the Andes Mountains tomorrow.

This time we will send out all our best troops and we will definitely capture the pagan city."

Solo asked: "What are the requirements for joining the vanguard? If we can complete the sacrifice to the gods, everyone will be rewarded by the gods."

Of course, he knew what the requirements for joining were. He asked the question to attract everyone's attention and ignite their fighting spirit.

“All bronze warriors of the tribe and the stronger silver-level warriors are our targets for recruitment.

We will carry out a decapitation mission. The first thing we have to do is to paralyze the enemy's command system. The top priority is to kill the person responsible for opening the city's magic circle.

Although the Mind Flayer is dead, he also provided us with very valuable information.

The person responsible for opening the magic circle is called Flanders McLean. He does not stay in the church which serves as the center of the magic circle all the time. When night falls, he will return to his mansion.

We will set out early tomorrow morning and will be out of the Andes two days later in the afternoon, just in time to launch the attack at night.

Flanders is just a fourth-level transcendent, and it is easy for us to paralyze the city.

Because we have four fifth-level transcendents, five fourth-level transcendents, and there are nearly a thousand bronze warriors participating in the battle.

With such a powerful force led by a sixth-level Soul Reaper, the enemy will surely be crushed into mud."

Somla spoke a lot of things with great enthusiasm. He had never felt so high-spirited.

He had already begun to imagine how happy they would be when the will of the gods came upon the altar after the victory of the war, and what kind of praise they would receive from the gods. "Great witch doctor, the last time we fought a foreign war, there was an enemy with golden wings in the cult's team. How should we deal with this enemy?"

Some people raised questions. Most of the warriors of the Kurud tribe had seen Klauen display his might and asked themselves if they met the same enemy, they would not be his match at all.

"This man is my prey."

A cold voice came from the Soul Reaper's mouth, and he said his first words in this meeting.

Somla laughed and said:

“I forgot to introduce to you just now that the one sitting on the bone throne is the most powerful warrior of the gods—the Soul Reaper, a sixth-level extraordinary creature.

Another point is that according to our intelligence, the enemy with golden wings is not staying in the city, but is guarding another small town.

By the time the target enemy learns of our raid on the city, we will have probably completed the sacrificial ritual and received the reward from the gods."

"Hurrah!"

Hearing that the witch doctor had already made a foolproof plan, all the participants cheered.
