Chapter 428 The Power of Faith
Even after his death, the blond man could not believe that he had been abandoned by his respected superior.
And with such decisiveness!
After all, that was the secret technique "Divine Descent" that he risked his life to perform. He had originally thought that after that person dealt with Taibai Xiaoyuan and the others, he would then make up for the life he had lost.
Now, the blond man could only watch as he slowly died, his back now empty.
Before long, it turned into a lifeless corpse in front of everyone, making everyone shake their heads in disbelief.
After the blond man died, the group quickly wiped out all the extraterrestrial demons.
Then, Taibai glanced at the blond man's corpse. To prevent it from being marked by someone with ulterior motives, Taibai raised his hand and extended a finger, sending a cluster of flames drifting towards the corpse.
boom!
The flames ignited upon contact with the blond man's corpse, quickly burning the body to ashes.
"Come out, I'm sure you've been watching for long enough." After doing all this, Taibai turned his head and looked in a certain direction.
Upon hearing this, everyone followed Taibai's gaze and looked in that direction.
From behind a stone pillar next to a smaller palace, an elderly man dressed in a white church robe emerged, his steps unsteady.
He slowly approached Taibai and Xiao Yuan, and thanked them gratefully in his broken Shenzhou dialect: "Thank you!"
"Thank you all for your help in killing these demons. On behalf of the Western Church, I express my gratitude to you all!"
After saying this, the old man bowed deeply to Taibai and Xiao Yuan.
Taibai looked at the old man in front of him and said, "You must be the Pope here."
"Tell me, how did this birdman and that group of extraterrestrial demons come to this world?"
"Don't tell me that it just appeared out of thin air."
"If you don't answer truthfully, I don't think this place needs to exist."
Upon hearing this, the old man hesitated for a moment before sighing and saying, "Fine, I've seen through the true colors of those gods anyway."
"Please follow me, gentlemen."
After saying that, the old man turned around and led Taibai and Xiao Yuan toward the largest palace in the area.
Seeing this, Lin Que, Zhang Mengde, and the others followed out of curiosity.
When the group arrived at the palace, they discovered that the interior was exceptionally magnificent. The ceiling was constructed of luxurious crystal and gold, and the walls were covered with paintings of various Western deities.
But the old man did not stop walking; he went straight to the back of a pillar.
Then, for some unknown reason, he pressed some mechanism, and the smooth marble floor suddenly opened slowly to both sides, revealing a staircase leading down to the ground.
When the staircase was fully revealed, streaks of light automatically lit up on both sides of the wall, illuminating the entire staircase path.
After doing all this, the old man took the lead and walked down the steps, and everyone else followed suit.
Before long, the group followed the old man into a secret chamber underground.
"This is..."
The moment you step into the secret room!
Taibai, Xiao Yuan, and Lin Que, who was familiar with formations, all had a tense expression!
In this spacious secret chamber, a giant teleportation array was carved into the ground!
"That group of demons came here through here." The old man looked at the teleportation array and said with a complicated expression, "This secret chamber has existed for thousands of years since the church was founded."
“According to the records in the church’s history books, it is said that as long as we collect a certain stone containing great energy.”
"Put it in there and then offer a sincere prayer."
"Then the gods can descend upon this world."
"The church has spent thousands of years searching for and collecting these stones with great difficulty."
"But who knew that instead of gods, we were greeted by a horde of demons!"
As he spoke, the old man pointed to several stones in the teleportation array that had lost their energy and were covered in dust.
Everyone looked over and showed an expression of "I knew it!"
It really is a spirit stone!
And to my surprise, it was actually a top-grade spirit stone.
However, at this moment, Lin Que raised his own question.
"Even if there are spirit stones."
"But can you get them here just by praying?"
There was no way around it; it piqued his curiosity.
Even if a group of ordinary people have spirit stones, it's useless if they don't know how to activate the teleportation array. So Lin Que really wanted to know how they did it.
However, before the old man could speak, Xiao Yuan smiled and said to Lin Que, "It's no wonder you're curious, kid."
Let me tell you about it.
"Didn't you all sense that the energy fluctuations within that person from the Osei Star Realm you saw before were very strange?"
"And the techniques and moves they use contain energy that is different from ours."
Everyone nodded.
The energy of the move used by the blond man was different from their spiritual power.
Xiao Yuan continued, "It's because what they're using is an energy called 'the power of faith'."
"It's not the spiritual power we use."
"That's why you find it strange."
"As long as the source of energy, the 'power of faith,' exists, even ordinary people can come here through the source of the 'power of faith.'"
"Of course, the premise is that the teleportation array and spirit stones are both indispensable."
"As for the 'power of faith', you will understand it in time. It's just that it's different from our cultivation system."
After hearing Xiao Yuan's explanation, everyone suddenly understood!
"I see..."
"To prevent any further problems on Blue Star, this teleportation array cannot be left standing." Taibai glanced at the teleportation array, drew his Azure Lotus Sword, and slashed at it.
Boom~!
A sound.
With a single sword strike, he cleaved several sword energies, shattering the teleportation array into pieces.
That's something that can't be repaired even if you want to. Even if you have a picture and try to redraw it, it won't help.
The old man glanced at the teleportation array, which had been reduced to ruins, and a look of heartache appeared on his face. But then he remembered what had happened earlier and quickly felt relieved.
"Are there other places with this teleportation array?" Taibai asked the old man.
Upon hearing this, the old man shook his head and said, "No, after all, the main church of Blue Star is located here, which is also the only place where that pattern is located."
Sensing that the old man was not lying, Taibai nodded, and then walked with the others toward the ground.
However, when everyone arrived outside the palace, their hearts suddenly tightened!
They then looked up at the sky without prior arrangement!
"what!"
Everyone's gazes suddenly sharpened!
In the sky, a tiny black dot was gradually falling towards the group.
This caused a sense of unease to many people with low cultivation levels!
Lin Que and Zhang Mengde's expressions changed drastically!
As the black dot drew ever closer, I couldn't help but shout out loud!
"Damn it!"
"It's a nuclear bomb!"
