Age of Adepts

Chapter 1127 - Sacred Book of Wisdom

According to the strict power system of the Wizarding World, these followers of the gods were not even at the 4th level. The bloodline breath that their bodies showed was not only weak, but also extremely weak.

The three magicians were barely at the level of a rank 1 sorcerer, while the other five Church Knights were only at the level of a rank 2 alchemist sorcerer. With strength as weak as their original bodies, coming to this alien battlefield was a death wish.

But as they piously prayed, and then with the help of the special items in their hands, they summoned a radiant divine aura out of thin air. These divine arts auras fell on them, stacked one on top of the other, perfectly blending together and also pushing up the energy atmosphere of their bodies layer by layer.

Before the addition of the divine Art Aura, these Gods believers were simply a bunch of 'meat chickens'. However, after adding the aura, they were all dragons and tigers and soared, even if they were surrounded by hundreds or thousands of middle and high level death spirits, they were not afraid at all.

The five Church Knights, with their dazzling divine aura, scattered around the periphery, forming a loose defensive circle, wielding their equally glittering long swords to cut down the spirits that surged in front of them one by one.

Behind them, two clerics in exquisite ornate robes, holding sacred texts in their hands, joined hands to hold up a sacred boundary that covered an area of several hundred meters. All the dead spirits that surged into the sacred boundary would have their bodies glowing with a fluorescent white light, and then the entire dead spirit would be like dipping into high purity holy water and begin to emit a terrifying corrosive noise of zzzzzzzz.

The so-called dead spirits were actually the remains of intelligent creatures left behind after they died and regained their footing under the effect of strange magic. Most of them had lost their mental faculties, with only a few killing instincts remaining, and were under the powerful domination of evil spell casters.

Therefore, the vast majority of necromantic spells were condensed with negative energy at their core.

And when the negative energy soaking in the dead bodies was neutralized by the pure positive energy in the Sacred Boundary, the cohesive evil core would naturally crumble silently.

As soon as those medium and low ranked spirits stepped into the divine boundary, they collapsed like a piece of rotten wood, their entire decayed and withered bodies quickly turning into a puddle of fetid black water, which then quickly melted away. Only those high ranked dead spirits were able to resist the 'purification' of divine energy with their tough, vellum-like rotting flesh or thick, substance-like stasis.

As one of the Seven Kings of the Skeleton Plane, the legions of dead spirits brought out by the Witch Demon Kanganus would not have only this power.

At the back of the legion of dead spirits, there was a huge skeletal giant monster, humanoid in form, more than twenty meters tall, with no flesh and blood around its body, all made of dark and deep strange bones joined together.

The skeleton monster had a small platform of white bones rising from its back, on which rested a throne of white bones made up of countless skulls and bones.

The Witch Demon Kangonas was sitting on it, tapping the handrail with one hand and holding his lower jaw with the other, watching the bloody scene of fighting in front of him with boredom.

On the side of the skeletal troll, five necromancers in human skin robes, white bone crowns on their heads, and white bone staffs in their hands were gathered around, occupying several core nodes of the Pentagram Formation, and were continuously summoning more and more powerful dead underlings from the skeletal plane.

For the five holy knights and the two archbishops on the opposite side, Kangenas didn't even look at them, and the only one it was fearfully wary of was the young man hiding behind a few people, holding the Holy Book of Wisdom in his hand and constantly flipping through it lightly.

His appearance was not outstanding, and his figure was not tough enough, but his body was overflowing with golden holy light as thick as armor. Wherever these golden holy lights shone, all evil and filth was cleansed away, and a holy and pure power spread through the heavens and earth.

As the pages of the Holy Book of Wisdom turned rapidly, the golden light around the body became thicker and thicker. In the dense light of the holy light, there seemed to be countless little angels with wings on their backs flying and circling, singing the hymn of the highest and most holy in a cheerful tone.

And within the range of the holy light, no evil could remain, and would melt away as quickly as the remaining snow under the bright sun.

Even from miles away, hidden in the shadows, Grim's eyes stared deadly at the holy book of wisdom that the young man held tightly in his hands. He could see clearly that the light emanating from that holy book of wisdom was imbued with strands of strange law power that did not belong to the Morian Plane.

To be able to extend the power of extra-territorial laws under the suppression of the Morian Plane's consciousness and still be able to extend the power of extra-territorial laws over, such treasures and wondrous items could not be achieved by any other item but a 'divine artifact'!

"Drop, detected a different power breath...analyzed as a branch of the belief system...according to the power attribute and power characteristics, tentatively judged to be a token of the God of Wisdom..."

"Token form: books..."

"Token property: knowledge-based..."

"Token Level: 5th Order (Artifact)"

"Token use: wisdom enlightenment..."

"TRUST DESCRIPTION: The item records the insights and views of a certain god of wisdom regarding the planes, space, knowledge and power..."

As the Wisdom Sacred Canon was wrapped in a powerful divine force, there wasn't much information that the chip could remotely probe and feed back. However, just from the other party's overflowing power attribute, it could be judged that it was definitely a rare and powerful artifact of knowledge.

In other words, that young man with blonde hair and blue eyes and a straight nose was most likely an important follower of some otherworldly god of wisdom, and one could not even rule out the possibility of a divine son or a divine branch. Otherwise, that deity would not have handed over such a valuable artifact to him and allowed it to be brought into the Otherworldly Realm.

"The God of Wisdom?" Grim couldn't help but mutter to himself.

The God of Wisdom is also known as the God of Knowledge in many planes, and such a deity is not beloved by the majority of warring clerics as it does not possess much in the way of combat skills. As a result, the birth of the God of Wisdom was extraordinarily difficult and extraordinarily slow compared to other gods as well.

Even many Wisdom Gods that were still growing would become the target of other evil gods or demigods due to their own feeble fighting abilities.

It was these factors that led to the fact that there were only a handful of famous and famous Wisdom Gods in the world of the gods, and that the power of the Godhead was mostly limited to 5th or 6th rank, with almost no Wisdom Gods above 6th rank existing.

Grim licked his lips lightly.

If it had been any other artifact, perhaps he would have just given up considering the difficulty in obtaining it!

After all, most artifacts had extremely harsh conditions for use, and even if they were snatched over, they would be difficult to harness.

But what appeared before him right now was the artifact of the God of Wisdom, a powerful power that could be harnessed and used by just a spellcaster ah!

That Witch Demon Kangenas was a true spellcaster despite being a bit ugly looking.

It was no wonder that it had abandoned its other prey and was intent on taking on this group of Wisdom Believers who had eaten the bear's heart and dared to come to the Morian Plane, even going so far as to pull the legions of dead spirits from the Skeleton Plane over for this.

However, the battle against the Wisdom Believers didn't go well for the Witch Kangonas either.

After all, the God of Wisdom also belonged to the Order God lineage and possessed the purest and most powerful divine power. It was quite restrained in terms of power attribute to necromancy spells.

Moreover, since that deity was willing to reward the artifact, it would definitely leave some divine power imprint on it as well. In case of the death of the bearer or the change of ownership of the artifact, the deity only needs to activate the brand on it, and no matter where the artifact is located, it will open a direct channel to the kingdom of God to redirect the artifact and the souls of the believers back.

The only thing that can interrupt this process is another 'artifact' or another deity!

It was because of such a harsh difficulty in acquiring it that not many guys dared to risk the majesty of a deity outright and do such a crazy thing.

However, this definitely did not include Grim.

Almost in an instant, Grim drew up a simple and workable plan of action and quietly sent word to contact several 'old friends'!

.....................

"Lord Mitzel, that evil witch demon is too much to handle! What do you think...should we change directions to avoid it?"

After an hour's long killing, although a large number of evil dead spirits had been slaughtered, the legions of dead spirits gathered around them still did not decrease. Even as the necromancy formation continued to operate, more and more powerful individuals appeared in the necromancy legion.

The 1st rank black warriors were no longer a big deal, it was the 2nd rank vampires and 3rd rank necromancers who had purified quite a few of them as well. In addition to that, there were a large number of ghouls, abominations and undead ghosts.

Their strength wasn't worth mentioning, but if there were many of them, they would be extremely exhausting to purify!

So, seeing that the dead spirits at his side were still black and their numbers had not seen any decay, one of the two Archbishops who had been protecting Mitser personally, Antonio, finally couldn't help but speak up.

The young man who had been bowing his head and silently flipping through the Holy Book of Wisdom finally raised his head.

"Is everyone tired? Then change your route! But be careful, that witch demon won't be able to let us go easily. Moreover... the holy book just alerted me that there is a new enemy staring at us, and I'm afraid that something else will change later!"

This young man named Mitzer had short, golden, slightly curly hair, and his turquoise pupils shone with a calm and wise light. Even though he was surrounded by a lot of people, there was no fear on his face, not even a bit of sadness.

"A new enemy? My lord, does the holy book indicate who the other enemy is?" The other archbishop, Rousseau, couldn't help but jack in.

The young man smiled slightly.

"As you know, it is also somewhat difficult for Father's divine power to be transmitted in this Orion ruled Morian Plane. Therefore, the Holy Canon can only give me vague warnings of new enemies, but it's hard to hint at more specific and detailed information anymore. Haha, if the Sacred Canon can really do that, then Father God will have to change his profession to the God of Prophecy!"

In response to the young man's 'joke', the two old and serious archbishops did not find it funny, and admonished, "Your Excellency, you must not make such similar jokes again. Although what you are saying is a joke, it involves the divine order of the great deities. Once it reaches the ears of those relevant deities, I'm afraid..."

"Alright, alright...this is the Other Side, do you really think those gods are little thieves with nothing better to do than listen to wall feet everywhere?" Seeing the resolute faces of the two 'bodyguards', the young man could only shake his head and say, "Alright, I'll listen to you, no more jokes like this!
