Chapter 173: This kind of bastard dares to chase me all the way?
"call!!!"
White Owl's hair was dancing wildly, and the fabric of his clothes was wrinkled like waves.
He looked up and saw an unusually large hall. The vast dome of the holy hall was semicircular and inlaid with colorful flower windows. The surface of the wall was decorated with white and gold reliefs, which were extremely gorgeous. The light and shadow coming from nowhere were cut into fine fragments by the windows and sprinkled down bit by bit.
In the center of the hall, a figure covered in platinum light stood with a sword in his hand. He exuded a majestic, yet somewhat rigid aura.
“…”
Bai Xiao narrowed his eyes and looked at him, feeling extremely dangerously insignificant. It seemed that if he was not careful, he would be crushed like an ant.
They stayed there for quite a while.
He gradually realized that the other party did not try to attack him, and his entire state was like a puppet, with only responsibility and instinct. After saying the first two sentences, he was motionless like a machine.
Bai Xiao hesitated slightly and took a step forward, but the platinum figure remained indifferent.
Then, he gradually moved closer to the other person.
Until it was about ten meters away.
The platinum figure moved slightly, and the cross sword in his hand, which was as transparent as crystal, seemed to be raised, and the energy exploded like fire.
Bai Xiao stopped immediately and stopped trying.
"It seems that this man in platinum armor should be the guardian of the Beidou Temple? This guardian, like the other knights in the Zhengzhan City, has lost his mind for some unknown reason and only has the instincts and duties left over from his lifetime. As long as you don't get within ten meters of him, you won't be attacked..." Bai Xiao went over his judgments and guesses in his mind.
"But what does sergeant second class mean?"
He thought again of what the guardian had said at the beginning.
“Could it be…”
Bai Xiao's mind moved, and the Six Desires of Gods and Ghosts was activated. Scarlet air continued to flow out of his strong body, and the strong murderous aura condensed into a towering and huge figure behind him. The totem colossus Gundra appeared in full condition.
"hiss……"
On the shoulder of the totem colossus, a black totem pattern gradually lit up.
The overall shape looks like a ferocious bone-crushing hammer.
Below the war hammer are two faint stars.
Conquest City, Totem Legion, Second Class Sergeant.
"So it's the identity of the totem colossus..."
Bai Xiao muttered to himself. When he was absorbing the totem colossus before, he sensed through memory fragments that the other party should be a warrior of a huge empire.
Now, as expected.
"If I didn't have the identity of a totem colossus, would the guardian just now have taken action and killed me at the first moment?" Bai Xiao narrowed his eyes and looked at the platinum figure not far away, thinking that this guess was very likely.
He thought for a while, came back to his senses, and calmed down again. He looked across the first floor of the temple and saw that he was standing at the entrance.
In front of us is a rectangular hall, which is the main space of the temple. There are two rows of platinum-colored embossed columns in the rectangular hall, with exquisite religious patterns carved on them. The columns divide the hall into different spaces and areas, which seem to be places for believers to worship. From a distance, we can see that there is a row of seats and a circled prayer area.
The prayer area has elegant silver candlesticks and a mysterious book.
The books are just shrouded in the colorful light from the skylight on the top, like a dream.
On the surrounding seats, there were figures with their backs to White Owl, covered in thin and delicate gauze, with their heads slightly lowered, motionless in a praying posture.
There was no movement in his shoulders, as if he wasn't breathing.
Bai Xiao glanced over and walked over quickly. He tapped the ground with his toes, making almost no sound, and his muscles were tense, just like a cheetah hunting its prey, ready to burst out with amazing speed at any time.
“Hiss, hiss, hiss…”
My footsteps stepped on the cool and smooth stone ground.
He came to the prayer area.
At the edge, Bai Xiao looked ahead again and found nothing unusual. He walked a few steps forward and turned to look at a figure praying next to him. His pupils shrank slightly. This person was actually translucent.
Under the white gauze-like cloak, there was a white figure with slightly translucent skin, glowing facial features, and hands clasped in front of the chest. It seemed that it was still mumbling some awkward words, repeating them over and over again.
Bai Xiao continued to move closer, trying to hear more clearly.
“Clatter…”
At the end of the prayer area, the mysterious book suspended in the light suddenly opened a page, and immediately a ray of pure and blazing light flowed out, just like the scriptures on the book, rushing out.
“Hiss, hiss, hiss…”
Strands of white light penetrated into the bodies of the devout believers sitting on the seats.
Making them more translucent, as if crystallized.
In an instant, a large amount of black gas was evaporated, and an explosion sounded in the air like ghosts crying and wolves howling. An extremely terrifying feeling was released.
"Is this... an extremely high concentration of fear?!"
Bai Xiao's pupils trembled and he showed a look of surprise.
Then, a ray of white light suddenly appeared in front of him and rushed towards him.
His hair stood up, and he subconsciously thought that he must not be touched no matter what, otherwise there would be very serious consequences. The White Owl exploded instantly, with wind and thunder whistling under his feet, and he flashed back with his blood surging.
Ding! Kakakaka...
At the edge of the prayer area, where Bai Xiao had originally stood, a large area of platinum-colored crystal light was spreading at an alarming speed, like the frozen sea surface in winter. The originally flat floor was so smooth that it could be used as a mirror.
“What kind of power is this?”
A dozen meters away, he was shocked and looked up, only to see pairs of eyes emitting blazing white light. In the last row of seats in the prayer area, two or three believers turned around stiffly and looked straight at Bai Xiao.
"heresy……"
"heresy."
"heresy!"
It seemed that White Owl's refusal to accept that white light was a sign of becoming an enemy.
Swish, swish, swish!
Three figures stood up instantly, their bare feet strangely suspended about ten centimeters above the ground. Their white robes fluttered slightly.
They stretched out their pale, almost translucent hands and swept across the air.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
An extremely thin white sword appeared in his hand.
The long sword has no handle, is about one meter long, and is suspended in the palm of the hand, spinning around.
It doesn't look like it's for holding, but for...
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
In an instant, three lightsabers flew out and bombarded an area at a lightning speed, demonstrating astonishing explosive destructive power.
"Holy Starlight, please judge all heretics!"
The cold and merciless words of judgment rang out.
In the light of the explosion, a figure flew out diagonally, rushing towards the other side of the rectangular hall. In Bai Xiao's sight, the exquisite and elegant stone pillars on both sides passed by like fleeting light and shadows, constantly moving behind him.
"These people have actually reached the level of martial artists!?"
"The three believers sitting at the edge of the prayer area have the destructive power of martial artists? Then the believers in the front row are at least at this level. At a glance, there are hundreds of people, at least hundreds of martial artists? It seems that this time, I have indeed entered the core area of the Battle City..."
Bai Xiao ran all the way, thinking in his heart.
call out!
His head tilted slightly, and a glowing white sword whizzed past, stirring up a gust of wind. The moment it touched the ground in front of him, it exploded.
However, I don't know what material the ground of this temple is made of, but there is only a fist-sized hole, which is much tougher than I imagined. Some gravel flew and hit Bai Xiao's chest with a crackling sound, and then fell down one after another.
call out!
Two more glowing white swords shot over with unbridled force.
Bai Xiao dodged the one on the left, but the one on the right blocked his way. With a bang, his strong shoulders shook violently, and his body staggered while running forward, and he groaned.
"Damn it, if it weren't so close to this prayer area, I'm afraid it would attract more believers..." Bai Xiao muttered to himself. He still had no intention of fighting back, but just endured the slight burn on his back.
In the hallway, a figure ran forward, and three figures were chasing him from behind. Glowing white swords shot out from time to time, causing explosions.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Bai Xiao stumbled twice while running wildly, and almost fell to the ground. Black smoke was coming out of his back, and the fabric of his upper body clothes had been torn into pieces, with red and hot burn marks looming.
"laugh……"
Two streams of hot air blew out of Bai Xiao's nostrils. He turned his head and took a deep look at the three pursuers, then continued to run forward. He swept past the corner of the hall like a hurricane and appeared in the side hall on the first floor of Beidou Temple.
"You'd better not follow me..."
"Otherwise, hehe."
A sneer flashed across Bai Xiao's dark face.
In the rectangular hall, three believers in white robes leaped forward in a suspended posture, but their toes were only ten centimeters off the ground, not really flying. The bombardment just now was so powerful that even the White Owl was forced to flee without being able to fight back.
"Judgement! Heresy!"
The three believers paused as the white owl passed the corner, but still followed closely. Perhaps the previous pursuit had given them an illusion.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Three white shadows swept around the corner in an instant, looking very aggressive.
However, the leader who rushed out first was suddenly grabbed by a ferocious red and black hand that stretched out from the corner and was forcibly dragged into the shadows.
Puff!!!
There was no fight, no struggle.
The furious White Owl grabbed the white-robed believer and tore his pure translucent body into two halves with absolutely brutal force!
A huge iron-red figure stood in the shadows, white air spewing from its nostrils. Its terrifying arms, which were slightly emitting heat, slowly spread out and its two halves of the body fell to the ground.
Fine starlight flows out from the cross section like star sand.
"Do you really think I'm afraid of you?!"
The expression on Bai Xiao's face became ferocious, and his pupils glowed red.
These white-robed believers are not as strong as imagined. While they have amazing lethality, their bodies are extremely fragile, like glass cannons.
Bai Xiao originally thought that he would need to struggle several times to catch the other party after hiding in the dark. However, he shook the believer with great force, and the believer's body was torn. With a little force, half of the body fell off.
"How dare you, a fellow like this, chase me all the way?"
"court death!"
When Bai Xiao stepped on the ground, there was a loud bang, and the whole person instantly rushed out like a heavy tank, killing the remaining two people fiercely.
whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
White lightsabers shot over with blazing explosive power.
Bang bang bang bang!
Flames exploded from Baixiao's python body, and he violently withstood the impact energy and pushed forward, appearing in front of the enemy.
call!
Qiu Jin's five fingers were spread out like iron claws, and a huge force burst out, violently tearing the air apart, and in an instant, five parallel white finger-mark airflows were thrown out.
bite!
The cross lightsaber that the white-robed believer held out was crushed by his palm and shattered into thousands of pieces. Then, his right arm twisted and torn like a twist. Nearly a hundred cracks appeared on the translucent skin.
Phew!
The iron-red claws pierced through the chest of the white-robed believer and went through his back.
A cloud of mist like star fragments exploded.
Bai Xiao raised his hand and shook it.
The opponent fell out heavily like a broken sack.
clang!
A hand-held cross lightsaber, carrying great power, fiercely slashed at the white owl's neck from the left, causing a vibration of metal collision.
A flash of fire appeared, and the white light instantly submerged the left face of Bai Xiao.
However, the next second.
"call!"
A huge blowing sound broke out, and the flames and light were blown away in an instant.
It seemed as if a broken lightsaber and a thick neck that was intact were revealed. White Owl had no expression on his face and stopped blowing. He let the other party hold his neck with the lightsaber and twisted his neck, and the bones made a crisp crackling sound.
"It's a courtesy to return gifts, haha."
He looked at the last remaining white-robed believer and smiled. Swoosh, the wind whistled, and an arm swung out in an arc.
The extremely ferocious phantom of the hand knife slashed heavily on the opponent's neck.
BANG!!!
A surge of power gushed out, and the white-robed believer's head exploded on the spot.
A headless body fell to the ground.
Bai Xiao took a step forward, stepped lightly over, and walked straight into the distance.
…
First floor of Beidou Temple, side hall.
It's completely empty here, even more spacious than the rectangular hall.
The most conspicuous position was a row of statues guarding on both sides. Each of the white stone statues, wearing armor, holding swords, and covered with helmets, had a solemn and murderous atmosphere from the army. In the middle of the statues was a gray and old carpet, which stretched all the way from the small door of the side hall to the end.
At the end, there is an extremely conspicuous stone altar.
The altar is heptagonal, with religious carvings on its surface. There is a star on each corner of the altar, which lights up slightly and echoes each other.
In the middle of the altar, a white cross sword was quietly inserted into the stone pillar.
Bai Xiao walked over and looked down.
There is a line of words on the surface of the stone pillar.
"Military rank test bench, can activate military ranks and determine military ranks!"
"Once your military rank is determined, you can recruit soldiers in the battle city!"
