Chapter 145: High Priest
In the dark basement, a golden giant clam lay quietly, a powerful and rhythmic throbbing sound coming from inside the shell.
Dong, dong... Dong, dong!!
Louder and louder with each beat, the creature inside the clam shell was about to be born, but definitely not right now.
That meant they needed to hold off the High Priest of the Light God for a while!
A group of level eight sovereigns resisting a level nine peak, even if Monier, Jiang Geng Erlijia, and Cynthia were in the late stage of level eight, there was still a full level difference!
As for Zhang Yuanqing, his experience points were infinitely close to level eight, so his actual combat power was hard to say.
Without props, his actual combat power was comparable to the mid-stage of level eight!
With the numerous sets of high-quality props, he could still wrestle with a level nine sovereign!
After all, the Thor Set touched the threshold of level nine!
Compared to the time of the Holy See Treasure Vault, my experience points have increased a lot, and I can barely continue to use the Lightning God Set for three minutes.
If I can access treatment during that time, the usage time will be even longer!
"I will act as the main force, and the others will assist. I will try my best to delay time. The Primordial God is about to be born!" In a flash of thought, Zhang Yuanqing jumped out of the window and faced the golden light whistling towards him!
Standing in the clock tower, Erlijia took the initiative to meet the golden light as it swept towards Paphos Island!
Whoosh!
Giant tornadoes appeared on the sea surface, connecting the ocean below to the sky above. Erlijia's bloated body mixed with countless wind blades, crashing horizontally and vertically on the sea surface, crushing and devouring everything around it!
The hurricane and wind blade combination was the "Overseer's" most powerful output, known as a mobile natural disaster. Even if a sovereign of the same level was trapped in the hurricane's encirclement, they couldn't withstand the damage and would continuously lose health!
Erlijia's idea was simple: to keep the enemy out of the island, and absolutely not let the High Priest of the Light God land on the island.
In a doomsday-like scene, the golden light entered the storm area.
In an instant, a high-pitched and loud chant echoed on the sea.
"Disaster has arrived, believe in the light, calm the storm, and eliminate the disaster!!!!!"
The chant contained a peculiar rhythm that leveraged supernatural power. The turbulent sea instantly calmed down, and the giant storms connecting the sea and sky visibly diminished!
The golden light traveled unimpeded, passing through the gradually calming storm area.
A fierce look flashed in Erlijia's eyes, and his pupils turned into transparent cyan. Streams of air gathered above his head, entwined into a materialized crown!
A pair of ten-meter long wind wings formed between his wings, surrounded by gusts of wind!
His temperament became indifferent to everything, his expression cold and icy, like the incarnation of the King of the Sky, the carrier of rules, without the emotions and feelings of living beings!
This was the Overseer's passive ability: Sky Sovereign!
Suppressing all creatures that can fly and are active in the center of the sky!
The suppression effect depended on the level of both sides. In the case of the same level, it could suppress 50% of the enemy's current level of attributes!
For enemies one level higher than himself, the suppression effect was between 10%-30%, depending on experience points!
Erlijia declared like a god: "Descend!"
The speed of the comet-like golden light clearly weakened, as if it was subjected to heavy resistance. The weakening hurricane swelled again and restored its terrifying momentum, but it was still a few points weaker than before!
Erlijia suddenly closed his huge wind wings, and dozens or hundreds of hurricanes surrounded and strangled the golden light from all directions, stubbornly trying to cross the ocean to reach Paphos Island.
Finally, the golden light stopped and stood in the center of the storm!
At this time, the High Priest in the golden light revealed his appearance. He was an old man with white hair and beard, wearing a laurel crown and a bright white robe, about two meters tall and burly!
He carried a large, light brown bow on his back, with six golden arrows attached!
The old man with the laurel crown was surrounded by pure golden light, forming a spherical barrier with a diameter of ten meters.
Inside the barrier, the laws were self-contained. The hurricane, carrying countless wind blades, gathered outside the barrier, colliding and strangling frantically, but could not shake it in the slightest.
The High Priest's gold-flecked pupils stared at Erlijia, who was like a god, and took down the big bow, nocking a golden arrow!
The big bow instantly looked like a full moon!
A string sound echoed between heaven and earth, and golden light shot out. The storm dissipated on the trajectory, and all the spiritual power was evaporated by the golden light!
Erlijia immediately erected a wind wall in front of the arrow!
However, the next second, the wind wall was also purified by the goddess Monier, who stood in front of Erlijia, with a large sword inserted in front of her, constructing a bronze barrier!
The barrier was also melted through by the golden arrow, failing to achieve the blocking effect!
At a critical moment, a current bounced from a distance, condensing into a figure wearing lightning armor and surrounded by electric light!
Zhang Yuanqing pushed Monier away, and his hands gathered endless dazzling lightning, grabbing the golden arrow!
The golden arrow shattered his hands without any hindrance, piercing through his chest, and a "poof" sound came from behind him!
Zhang Yuanqing's heart sank, and he quickly turned his head to see that Erlijia had also been pierced through the chest, watching the golden arrow fly into the distance, across the sea of White Foth Island!
Erlijia opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound. His oral cavity, nostrils, eye sockets, and ear holes simultaneously spewed out golden light!
Immediately afterwards, golden flames also spewed out of Zhang Yuanqing's seven orifices, but he did not die like Erlijia. The Thor Set gave him the position of early level nine.
This is the peak sovereign!
This is the peak sovereign.
Zhang Yuanqing's cold sweat instantly soaked his back. He hurriedly opened his inventory, grabbed the Blade of Annihilation, and activated the ignore-defense cut skill!
The physically defensive cut, with blue arcs of electricity zizzing.
The power of lightning frantically gathered in the hand holding the knife and poured into the blade.
"Eat my Railgun!" Zhang Yuanqing flicked the Blade of Annihilation.
Boom, a thick beam of lightning flashed by, the air crackled, and electric arcs crawled across half the sky!
Driven by the lightning, the speed of the Blade of Annihilation approached the speed of light, piercing the spherical barrier in an instant!
The Blade of Annihilation shattered inch by inch, and the shattered spherical barrier exploded in response. The defense regulations in this area dissipated.
Zhang Yuanqing, not caring about the pain, turned into starlight and escaped to a distance not far from the High Priest, then opened his inventory and summoned the Seven Star Lamp Formation!
One by one, the Seven Star Lamps burning with faint green candlelight appeared, turning into a formation and incorporating the High Priest into it!
Zhang Yuanqing turned into starlight and escaped to a distance, immediately removing the Thor Set and taking out the Life Source Liquid, injecting it into his jugular vein!
He didn't expect the Seven Star Lamp Formation to trap the High Priest; as long as he bought some time, it would be enough, buying time for his physical condition to recover and refresh the usage time of the Thor Set!
Looking at the formation, the High Priest looked up with a solemn expression, staring at the Seven Star Lamps he had never seen before, like a tiger seeing a donkey for the first time!
After waiting for more than ten seconds, seeing that the Seven Star Lamps floating above his head were not behaving abnormally, the High Priest took the initiative to attack, tentatively ejecting a beam of golden light and destroying a Kongming Lantern!
In an instant, a torrential rain of sword energy fell, piercing the High Priest into a sieve, covered in blood-soaked holes.
The golden light on the High Priest's body surface flickered, and the wounds were completely healed!
He immediately understood the strength of the lamp formation, and with a flick of his finger, he ejected beams of golden light, detonating a ball of golden and green intertwined flames in mid-air.
The High Priest's attack intensity is not too high, and his physical defense is average. Except for the arrows he shoots, which are terrifying, the normal output intensity cannot kill me!
The Light God profession possesses healing, beast control, calming rules, and excels in archery!!!
Zhang Yuanqing quickly analyzed the enemy's skills and formulated a method to respond in his mind.
In less than five minutes, hundreds of Seven Star Lamps were all destroyed. Zhang Yuanqing, whose physical condition had fully recovered, immediately summoned the Thor Set and transformed into a lightning-clad~majestic Fallen Thor!
The High Priest drew another golden arrow, nocked it, drew the bow, and aimed it at Zhang Yuanqing.
