Chapter 726 The Return of the Gods 10
"You're done."
Liu Yao stared at the fragments of the spirit core that were cracked with spider silk patterns. After a brief moment of surprise, she immediately felt gloating.
The fragments of the spirit core are spiritual objects, and are the carriers for communicating with the gods. The damage of the spiritual objects is an ominous sign, not to mention on such an important day as the day of praying to the gods.
Quan Jiu raised his hand and touched it lightly, and the spirit core fragment that had originally cracked was directly split into two halves.
“………”
Her fingertips paused slightly, but her brain was working rapidly. Such a supernatural thing was probably related to the two men she saw.
"Luan'er, what are you doing?!"
Wan Chaolin's chest was heaving with excitement, and even the white beard on his chin was shaking. It was obvious that he was very angry.
She had always been sensible and never made him worry, but this time she went against the grain and chose the least appropriate small spirit core fragment.
"Elder Chao Lin, don't be so excited. Chen Luan has always been opinionated. Maybe this time he just wanted to find a new way, but he didn't expect to make things worse."
The overall situation was settled, and Qiu Zhongkui was in a surprisingly good mood. He even looked at his arch-enemy with a more favorable attitude.
Wan Chaolin's chest heaved even more violently. Even though he knew that his words were meant to stir up trouble, he still couldn't control his anger.
Ten years of hard work had gone to waste, and he inevitably became dissatisfied with this disciple who acted regardless of the occasion.
Elder Lu, who was standing by, did not interfere in the feud between the two and said calmly:
"It's getting late, let's move on to the next step. Shen Luan's spirit core has been destroyed and she can't participate in the next selection. Just watch from the sidelines."
The last step is the manifestation of the Holy Light.
The brighter the holy light on the soul core fragment, the stronger the favor of the gods. The person who is most favored by the gods is the only saint in the temple.
The remaining three Saints simultaneously formed seals, and soon, the two spirit core fragments lit up with varying degrees of holy light. The other Saint stared at the unchanged spirit core fragment in her hand, her face instantly pale!
The ball of light in Liu Yao's hand was undoubtedly the largest, as big as a football. The ball of light enveloped the spirit core fragments and emitted a soft and holy white light on the altar.
The other saint's ball of light was only the size of a fist. Comparing the two, the winner was immediately apparent.
Qiu Zhongkui stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction.
Elder Lu put one hand behind his back:
"The winner has been decided. Liu Yao will be the Holy Maiden of this term. Do the elders have any objections?"
Qiu Zhongkui: "I don't have any."
Even though Wan Chaolin was extremely reluctant, the facts were before him and he could only snort coldly.
Elder Lu took out a jade token from his space bag:
"In that case, I declare that Liu Yao will be the temple's only saint from now on."
He looked at Liu Yao: "This is the Saint Maiden Token, Liu Yao, come here."
Liu Yao's face was filled with joy. When she walked down from the altar, her steps quickened. When she passed by Quan Jiu, she gave her a pleased look.
Everyone's attention was on Liu Yao, and no one noticed that Quan Jiu was still looking down at the shattered spirit core fragments.
She bent down and fiddled with it twice with her fingertips.
"I don't know if it will work if it's broken into pieces like this..."
We can only try our best to save the situation.
She formed seals in the same way as Liu Yao and the others, and even after completing the seals, the spirit core fragments were still dim.
"It seems that it is no use..."
Quan Jiu frowned slightly and was about to turn around when a strong and dazzling beam of light suddenly appeared in front of him!
A pillar of light extended from the inconspicuous fragment of the spirit core. The holy light was as vast as the sea, reaching straight into the sky, so high that the top was invisible!
Several people who were performing the handover ceremony were also alarmed. The elders who had been sitting in their chairs and had never moved suddenly stood up and looked at the scene not far away in shock!
"This is…?!!"
The entire altar was wrapped in holy light. The white light ball formed by the rich holy light blocked everyone's sight. They tried hard to see the scene in the light ball, but their eyes were burned by the light ball that was as bright as daylight.
Quan Jiu felt worse than everyone else in the ball of light. His eyes were irritated and he was temporarily blinded.
After waiting for a long time for the holy light to fade away, she opened her eyes again and felt as if she was in another world.
The huge altar was silent, and everyone was shocked by the miraculous scene that had just happened.
“Click—”
The tiny sound brought everyone back to their senses.
The spirit core fragments that had originally been split in two were completely vulnerable and shattered into powder, flowing out from Quan Jiu's fingertips like quicksand in the wind.
Wan Chaolin took a few deep breaths and looked at her: "Luan'er, what did you just do?"
Quan Jiu spread his hands: "Master, I just made a seal."
She didn't expect it to cause such a big commotion.
Wan Chaolin took a deep breath as his suspicions were confirmed.
On the contrary, Qiu Zhongkui looked unhappy:
"It's impossible for a seal to cause such a big commotion, Chen Luan. I know you are smart and have many tricks up your sleeve, but the matter of divine prayer concerns the future of our temple and cannot be treated as a joke. What tricks did you use? Tell me the truth now."
Disaster struck from the sky, Quan Jiu's mouth twitched:
"Elder Qiu, if I really had the skills, I wouldn't have let this spirit core shatter and almost been eliminated."
She had no hope for the shattered spirit core fragments, but she didn't expect the effect to be unexpectedly good.
"What the little girl said makes sense." Another Elder Wu, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly spoke up.
Elder Lu was in deep thought with a complex expression:
"This holy light, I'm afraid even the arrival of a true god is no more than this. If it is really as she said, that the hand seal can summon such a strong holy light, then she..."
Before he finished speaking, all the elders present felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.
The six elders argued back and forth, but in the end they still couldn't reach a consensus, and some of them even became anxious.
Wan Chaolin refused to give in: "Luan'er is so powerful, the Temple cannot treat her unfairly!"
They had never seen such talent before. If the summoning of the holy light this time was really based on Quanjiu's talent, then her future would be immeasurable, and the temple might even be able to reach a higher level.
Elder Lu felt a bit of a headache: "But the problem is, we can't be sure that this holy light was brought by her..."
When Quan Jiu was standing on the altar and making seals, he had his back to them. In addition, all their attention was on Liu Yao, so no one knew whether what Quan Jiu said was true or false.
Qiu Zhongkui: "Then let her get married again."
Wan Chaolin: "Not to mention that the spirit core fragments are gone, you and I both know that every time we summon the gods, we may not get a response. Luan'er was able to summon such a strong holy light just now, but she may not be able to do so next time."
You can't communicate with God just because you want to.
Repeated disturbances will only cause the gods to be disgusted.
Qiu Zhongkui sneered and counterattacked: "Then what do you say we should do?"
Wan Chaolin: "Change to the Saint."
Qiu Zhongkui: "Impossible."
The two of them were incompatible to begin with, and now neither of them was willing to give in. Just when the situation was at a stalemate, the communication stone in Wan Chaolin's arms suddenly lit up.
