Age of Adepts

Each of the three different responses had advantages and disadvantages.

Almost in a flash of electric light, Grim chose the first method.

The existence of the Shadow Jewel was still of great use to him, and he couldn't leak it out at the moment. And at the time of the outbreak of the Great War, he couldn't afford 13 minutes of power loss, so... Grim could only choose the first response plan.

Temporarily losing 7% of his flame power... it was also unbearable, but it was acceptable under the current circumstances!

With a bang of flames, Grim's entire body once again exploded into a sky of flames.

The difference between this time's Flame Body Energization and the previous one was that most of the golden flames dispersed into loose clouds of fire that splattered everywhere before coming together again under an inexplicable force constraint. And about 7% of the flames didn't scatter, but coalesced together and burned silently.

When Grim manifested after condensing into form once more, the divine breath on his body was completely obliterated!

Still in the midst of a life-and-death battle, both the Witch Demon Magnus and the Godson Mizer couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Grim, secretly amazed by the other's exquisite manipulation of the energized body.

In the meantime, the god-son Mitsel in particular was secretly feeling bad.

He was the only one who 'knew his own business', and that Sacred Trumpet Sword Divine Art was not something that could be triggered casually. There were only two high-level divine arts stored in the entire Wisdom Sacred Codex, one offensive and one defensive, both of which were injected by the God of Wisdom Yero himself.

These two high level divine arts were also his greatest guarantee to break into the Morian Plane!

After each divine art was triggered, it would require a 3-hour buffer to re-consolidate the divine power.

This meant that for the next 3 hours of battle, he only had that defensive divine Art to use. The 'Sword of Sacred Tailoring', on the other hand, was stuck in a long skill cooldown.

Although with the Holy Canon of Wisdom, Mitser was able to cast quite a few 4th rank divine arts. However, there were only two peak 4th rank divine arts that surpassed his current rank, putting one less than the other. If the Sacred Tailoring Sword could kill that fire demon in one fell swoop, it might even be able to deter the enemy.

But now, not only was that fire demon not dead, but it had consumed one of his killer weapons at such a 'tiny' cost, how could Mitser not be indignant and fearful?

By virtue of Grim's 'gag', the entire Just Eye Church team was hard pressed to scatter on their own.

Thus, under the command of the witch demon Kangenas, a large number of high ranked dead spirits swooped up and rigidly blocked the five Church Knights on the outskirts of the battlefield. Kangenas, on the other hand, intercepted the three Divine Arts who tried to take advantage of the opportunity to flee under the ring of a group of Death Spirit personal guards, and began a true 4th rank battle.

Divine Arts filled the air, and deadly air curled!

The battle that erupted from both sides filled the battlefield with violent and disorderly energy ripples, and everywhere they went, all the guys who couldn't resist magic or protect themselves were eroded and disintegrated in a vortex of energy, thus turning into a pile of scattered bones spilling down from the sky.

The Mangus siblings had just cast two rounds of sorcery at the divine son of Mitzel in the circle of war, when three or five hideous dead spirits with large arms and waists gathered from all sides, acting as if they were on surveillance and alert.

Grim grunted, and a flaming leap appeared around the Mangus siblings, his body swiftly expanding and growing, transforming once again into that ten-meter tall flaming giant. And with his greeting, a 5-meter tall astral construct came hurtling in from afar, hitting the ground with a thud, sending the surrounding dead along with tons of dirt flying a hundred meters away.

The three 4th rank witches made such an appearance, instantly shocking both sides of the battle within the arena as well.

Just now though, Grim secretly sent a message to the Witch Demon to coordinate a joint attack on the Wisdom Believers. But 'after the deed was done', this Witch Demon Kanganus clearly had some desire to take the spoils of war for himself, excluding Grim and the Mangus siblings from the battlefield in order to prevent them from grabbing that Wisdom Sacred Book.

Not only was Grim aiming for the Holy Book of Wisdom, even the Witch Kanganus was secretly moved by the 5th-grade artifact.

But right now, after Grim summoned the Holly Wizard, the three 4th-rank wizards stood side by side like this, and the Witch Kanganus' small thoughts vanished in a moment.

No matter how conceited and arrogant Witch Kanganus was, he wouldn't dare to face three 4th rank witches at the same time.

What's more, the other three had clearly formed a group, attacking and retreating together, which amplified their strength even more, becoming so strong that even an evil witch demon wouldn't dare to lightly start a battle and suppress them at will.

Although the ranks of the Church of the Omniscient Eye were more numerous, they were just a group of inferior goods that fought on the strength of their divine aura. Although the basic quality of their bodies was a hundred times stronger than that of ordinary people, it still wasn't enough to look at in the eyes of a 4th level Evil Witch.

If they could strip the divine magic aura from their bodies, it would be as easy as slaughtering a chicken or a dog for a Witch Demon to kill them!

It was because of such confidence that Connors had abandoned the legions of the dead, pestered those Church Knights, and then concentrated on dealing with that Son of God himself. As for the other two Archbishops, honestly, without that Holy Book of Wisdom present, Connors would have been able to carry their attacks hard enough to rush to its side and turn them into a pile of bones with a terrifying instant death spell.

How could a 4th level Witch Demon's magic resistance be touched by an ordinary spell or divine technique!

And now that Grim had shown his roots, the Witch Kangonas was forced to accept the reality that the three wizards had formed a powerful force that none of it could easily ignore.

And it was clear that this power existed that could turn the tide of battle!

"Wizard, is the agreement between us still valid?" Kangenas' tone couldn't help but soften a bit, and took the initiative to negotiate with Grim.

Heaven forbid, these Evil Wraiths had never been terrible characters who took enemies and 'allies' to their nest wherever they went, when had they ever taken the initiative to negotiate with their prey!

"Of course it works!" Grim smiled heedlessly, a smile on his flame anthropomorphized gigantic face, "Let's work together to put these gods down, and whoever gets the last booty will be the one who gets it... What? Your Excellency is outnumbered, and you're still afraid that you'll lose out?"

"Okay, it's a deal!" The soul fire hidden behind the giant ruby of the Witch Kangonas concealed behind the giant ruby swept over the bodies of Grim and the other three, sensing the power scent of the other party's 4th rank beginner and sneered eerily.

4th rank primary... Even if your natural ability is strong and you have mastered some of the power of the Flame Laws at 4th rank primary, it is impossible to control that 5th rank Wisdom Sacred Book. This kind of mastered object could only be bound and sealed by a treasure or power of the same 5th rank.

Therefore, faced with the olive branch thrown by Grim, the Witch Kangonas accepted it without hesitation!

Once the two evil forces joined forces, the two Archbishops and that Son of God who had been scattered from their ranks would be somewhat unable to hold on.

After all, this was a foreign land, not their native origin plane.

Although there was the Holy Book of Wisdom that could project a constant stream of divine power from the distant origin plane across billions of miles, the loss of power was too great after all.

If that God of Wisdom had been a moderate deity, he might have been able to sustain such a loss.

But unfortunately, the God of Wisdom, Yero, was only a 5th rank deity of weak divine power.

With the blessing of the Sacred Book of Wisdom, the Godson Mitzel was still able to support it, and a divine aura transformed into a layer of solid and condensed divine shields that blocked out the enemy's raging attacks of spells and sorceries. However, the two Archbishops did not have such a strong shield, and finally could not hold on amidst the fierce waves of the enemy's attacks.

The divine magic shield outside Archbishop Rousseau's body was the first to be breached, and several terrifying attacks swept past him, killing him in an instant.

First, the death shockwave of the Witch Demon Kanganus quickly washed over the Archbishop's body, the dense death and fresh flesh and blood intermingled, corroding and zipping together, rapidly invading it into a grey color.

The flesh and blood were decaying and withering, and the bones were rapidly calcifying....

The hallowed Archbishop Rousseau, who held the title of Holy Guardian, was eroded into an ashen skeleton before three flexes of the finger, his flesh, tendons, and organs all obliterated. And several other terrifying attacks followed, swiftly pounding Rousseau's withered bones into a mass of broken powder before rolling out in all directions.

"Rousseau..." shrieked Antonio sadly, the divine shield outside his body was only a thin layer, and rippled and shuddered under the ferocious attacks of the other party, obviously not able to sustain for much longer.

"My lord, you must flee! I... "Antonio's eyes were red, clearly blinded to death, "I'll do my best to fight for you for a while!"

With that said, Antonio gave up resisting unnecessarily, held his hands flat in front of his chest, palms up, and devoutly chanted a **and*mysteriously strange hymn in a language that Grim and the others could not understand.

The moment the hymn rang out, several of the 4th rank in the arena were unnerved and became somewhat trance-like. The attacks on their hands slowly came to a halt, and they were intoxicated by the melodious and deep hymn, seemingly forgetting everything on the battlefield.

Antonio, who was chanting the hymn, had blood running from his nose and mouth, and even had two purple and black blood snakes flowing from his eyes. But even so, he still did not stop chanting with his mouth, but was praising in a devout manner in an unusually tragic and tragic manner.

As for that Son of God, Mitzel, the moment the chant rang out, he dropped his body and flew off into the distance without looking back, not helping Antonio attack his enemies in the slightest.

It couldn't be helped, this 'God's Hymn' was just a means of pulling his enemies down with him.

Once he attacked any of his enemies, it would allow them to get rid of the mental illusion, thus making Antonio's sacrifice worthless.

And after the divine son Mitzel flew out a thousand meters, the Witch Demon Kangenas' body fluoresced around it, and its spiritual fluctuations instantly transcended from inside the illusion. It was, after all, a Witch Demon, and its magic resistance was far higher than that of several witches, so it wasn't difficult to get rid of it.

Seeing Mizer, who was fleeing in the distance, and then looking at the three witches who were in a trance, but had no trace of protection outside their bodies, Connors instantly made up his mind, and with a flash, he chased after the god-son.

And when Kangenas left, Grim, who had transformed into a tall flame giant, also opened his eyes in Ug....
