Episode 8: A Miles to Travel Chapter 38 – The Holy See’s Response
When Hisser left, Linley’s group traveled early in the morning towards the provincial city of Bazil, and this time everyone wasn’t in too much of a hurry to catch up. However, the five Barker brothers who had newly joined the group were all rank eight warriors, and they were relatively fast at rushing.
In the evening of the second day, Linley’s group arrived in the middle of a small town on the outskirts of the provincial city of Bazil.
“This town, it’s called Cloud Peak.”
Sessler introduced with a smile, “Back then, I also used to live in this town for more than ten years, the residents of this Cloud Peak Town are relatively simple, and it’s not a major transportation route. Very few people usually come here, and it’s still very peaceful.”
Linley nodded.
What he wanted was tranquility, and after nearly losing his life this time when he fought with Steller, Linley had made up his mind that at the very least, his normal human form should be cultivated to the ninth level of warrior, and in such a dragon-ized situation it would be the beginning of the Holy Realm.
“If I reach the beginning stage of the Holy Realm, with a few more years, I’ll be able to comprehend my sword techniques. Combined with the fact that I specialize in speed, even if I encounter Schuyler again, I should be able to be sure of escaping if I can’t fight.”
Linley was very clear about his mutated dragonblood warrior.
Having devoured the living dragon blood of the Spineback Ironclad Dragon as well as that dragon crystal, Linley’s mutated dragonblood warrior had the advantages of the Spineback Ironclad Dragon – speed and defense.
The five Barker brothers also looked at the quiet town with resolute gazes.
“One day, I must avenge my poor wife and son.”
Barker and the five brothers also knew about Linley and Sessler’s relationship with the Illuminati.
There was no doubt that the group of them had to look up to Linley nowadays.
This small group, all of them, had a great grudge against the Illuminati.
In the westernmost part of the town of Cloud Peak, Linley and a group of others negotiated with the nobles of this town once more. After that, they spent 10,000 gold coins to hire a number of people to start building a mansion.
Ten thousand gold coins was enough to build a very extravagant mansion in the countryside.
Rebecca and Lina were received by Lin Lei on the second day, and from then on, Lin Lei’s group of people lived here peacefully. Cultivating with one mind.
“Boom!”
The waves slapped hard against the shore, splashing up countless waves, at the end of the turquoise-blue sea, a silhouette flew over at great speed from the distant end of the sea, and only a moment later, the silhouette landed on the shore, and the person who had come was none other than Steller.
“This time, things are in trouble.”
Schuettler was also troubled in his heart.
The Holy See valued these five eighth level fleshlands, and I’m afraid that giving up a Saint Domain powerhouse would mean offending the O’Brien Empire. They were also willing. Hastings had even asked him, Schuettler, to step in just in case.
But the result ……
Schuettler’s gaze locked onto the tall Temple of Light in the distance.
“Whew.”
Schuettler directly flew through the air, and the temple knights who were guarding around the Temple of Light couldn’t help but feel nervous when they saw someone flying towards the temple. When they saw that the person coming was Schuettler, they all put their hearts down.
The ninth floor of the Temple of Light.
“Schuettler has returned.”
Hastings was in front of that window and had already seen Schuettler flying back. “What’s going on, how did Schuettler come back alone?”
Hastings had a bad premonition.
“Creak.”
Without informing, the door of the room opened directly, and Schuyler, who was as cold as ten thousand years of ice, walked in coldly.
“Schuettler, what’s going on, where are the others? Where are those five eighth level bodies?”
Hastings frowned. Immediately, he eagerly inquired.
Schuettler shook his head and said, “Your Holiness, those five level eight bodies, we can’t get them.”
“What’s going on?”
Hastings’ face sank.
Level 8 bodies could be equivalent to peak Saint Domain powerhouses for the Illuminati.
Schuettler’s voice was low, “Your Holiness, at first, I as well as the others escorted those five brothers all the way forward, but when traveling under the residence of the Deke County city, we encountered two people.”
“Which two men?”
Hastings did not think that anyone could stop Steller.
“Linley, Sessler.”
Schuettler’s voice chilled.
“Linley? Sessler?”
Hastings was stunned.
This Linley had disappeared for over three years. Surprisingly, it had popped up again?
The memories of three years ago resurfaced again in Hastings’ mind, killing Linley, this supreme genius. Hastings was extremely reluctant to do so. But there was no way around it. But more than three years ago, after Linley disappeared in Hess City. No one had ever found it again.
But this Linley, how had he gotten mixed up with Sessler?
“You mean, Sessler was saved by Linley?”
Hastings’ eyes lit up.
Schuettler nodded and said, “Yes, this Linley Earth is already very, very strong. Below a Saint realm, one is definitely not his opponent. Only a Saint realm or a higher level powerhouse can defeat him.”
“Six rank nine powerhouses, he can kill so many?”
Hastings was somewhat disbelieving.
Steller solemnly said, “Your Holiness, I must clearly tell you that this Linley first of all has two very powerful magical beasts, both of which should be peak level nine earth magical beasts. Secondly …… this Linley himself is close to the peak of the Holy Realm in terms of realm comprehension.”
“Close to the peak of the Holy Realm?”
Hastings was surprised.
One had to know that it was very difficult to improve on this realm. Some people couldn’t go further for hundreds of years.
“Yes, Linley has already surpassed the point of invoking the might of heaven and earth, and his attacks on the ground today are very strange and special. It’s just that I feel that he has grasped very little of that new level of comprehension. But even so, it caused me to suffer a slight injury.”
Steller felt strange when he thought of Linley’s ‘Earth Upanishad’ attack.
“I’ve never found this type of attack before. This kind of attack, it’s not fighting qi, nor is it mere strength. Rather, it is ……”
Schuettler was unable to describe it in words for a while.
Hearing Schuettler say that, Hastings was surprised in his heart.
To be able to lightly injure Steller, who was at the peak of the Holy Realm, was already astonishing.
“His ground attack, what’s special about it, and how can we defend against it?”
Hastings immediately pursued.
Schuettler nodded and said, “His attack can be transmitted to the body through the muscles on the surface of the body. That means the surface defense density is almost useless even if it is strong.”
“Eh?”
Hastings frowned.
“This move is an attack on the internal organs of a person’s body. The best way to defend against this move is to use Dou Qi to protect the internal organs of the body, so that the exterior of the internal organs are covered with as much Dou Qi as possible.”
Actually, this kind of vibration wave from Linley. When transmitted through matter, it was going to search for some of the loss.
However, because it was a transmission of vibration, even if your exterior defense was high. It could still be transmitted in. However, if the other party’s body is also dense layer of fighting qi protection. That vibration wave is weakened over and over again, and when it attacks the internal organs, the power is lower.
“This kind of attack cannot be completely defended. One can only use as much Dou Qi as possible to weaken the power of the attack.”
Steller sighed, “And I have a feeling that this Linley should be a preliminary comprehension, and when he waits until later, this attack of his might be even more terrifying. It should be one of the most bizarre attacks I’ve ever seen.”
Steller’s evaluation was very high.
Hastings’ heart grew more and more worried.
“This Linley, must be killed.”
Hastings was really a little scared. If Linley was allowed to grow, he would be too much of a threat to the Illuminati.
“Go on, I’m sure those two can’t stop you yet.”
Hastings said in a deep voice.
Steller nodded, “Yes Earth, both Linley and Sessler are only rank nine. But when I was about to kill Linley, another person appeared …… Hisser! The King of Killers, Cisse!”
“Hisser?”
Hastings said skeptically. “He shouldn’t dare to really fight our Illuminati head on.”
“No, he dares.”
Schuettler sighed, “Hisser, reached the God level.”
“Reached God level!”
This sentence was like a loud thunder that shook Hastings into a dizziness, another God-level powerhouse had been born on this Yulan Continent.
“God level?”
Hastings stared at Steller.
“Yes, God level.”
Schuettler nodded again.
Hastings was silent for a long time.
“What did he say, Hisser?”
Hastings said calmly.
“Hisser he said. I, the Illuminati, must never hit those five brothers from now on, otherwise, he will tear his face off with us, the Illuminati, and directly kill the Holy Island.”
Steller’s words were like a heavy hammer hitting Hastings’ heart.
Five level eight flesh bodies, but they represented five angels at the peak of the Holy Realm.
It was really heartbreaking and unwilling.
Unwilling!
“How could this Hisser say that?”
Hastings’ eyes narrowed, “According to my understanding of Hise. This man is not greedy for power and is free and easy. He is not going to spend a bit of effort for a stranger.”
Indeed. Among Hisser’s views. It was the one that didn’t care about other people’s lives and deaths.
“The …… that can make Hisser, a lazy person, do so.”
Hastings steeply lifted his eyebrows. Eyes brightened up.
“I know.”
Hastings sighed.
“What was the reason, Your Majesty?”
Steller inquired instead.
Hastings sighed, “In our Church’s dossier on Hisser, it is then described in detail, during the chaotic era of the Earth more than 5,000 years ago, what happened between Hisser and his good brother Amanda. If there is someone that Cisse truly values, it should be the descendants of Amanda’s land.”
“Immortal warriors?”
Schuettler also understood a bit.
“Yes. I’ve always been surprised how a level eight body could appear on the Yulan continent. Now that I think about it everything makes sense. Immortal Warrior, the strongest body of the four ultimate warriors.”
Hastings was silent for a moment, his mind regaining clarity.
“Those five brothers can’t be touched, there’s no doubt about that.”
Offending anyone was no way to offend a god-level expert.
“That Linley’s talent is too terrifying, he absolutely cannot be allowed to live like this.”
Hastings looked towards Steller, “Steller, that Hisser didn’t say that he’d fight a firefight with me, the Illuminati, for Linley, did he?”
Schuettler nodded.
Hastings smiled confidently.
“That’s Hisser, although he loves stone carving, he would never fall out with my Illuminati just for a stone carving master.”
Hisser, as a person, was lonely and arrogant.
There weren’t many people who could make him put up a fight. And that didn’t include Linley.
“Steller, go back and rest first, and while you’re out, order someone to have Rantan come over by the way.”
Hastings ordered.
“Yes, Your Majesty.” ……
After about ten minutes or so, a knock sounded on the door.
“Come in.”
Hastings indifferently said.
A tall, beautiful woman with long silver hair walked in, and there was no doubt that she was a maddeningly beautiful woman, excessively pretty. It was just that ice-cold aura that would make people not dare to get close.
“Your Majesty.”
Lan Zhan bowed.
Hastings directly ordered, “You will lead the five rank nine angels tomorrow and set off directly to the O’Brien Empire. The purpose of this trip for the six of you is to kill Linley. Later, I’ll order someone to send you Linley’s dossier.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Lantan, it was the angel of light that descended onto a level six’s physical body. Level seven and eight bodies were hard to find, but level six bodies were easy to find. This also made it so that in the Church of Light, there were quite a few angels who possessed the strength of a rank nine powerhouse.
“Remember, kill Linley at all costs.”
Hastings instructed again.
Lantan was stunned, and then he answered the order as well.
Angels were very strong, even the weakest two-winged angels had the strength of an early stage of the Holy Realm. Lan Zhan and his group were all really strong, they were just limited by their physical bodies, and they were all unable to utilize 100% of their strength.
But if they fought for their lives.
It was entirely possible to exert Saint Domain strength in the last moments of their lives.
Most importantly …… the six angels can already form the legendary ‘Angel Battle Formation’. With the six of them stepping out, not to mention Linley, it was feared that even an early Saint realm expert might be killed.
“Go.”
Hastings said indifferently.
Six rank nine angels were just six, he would be willing to die six more in order to kill Linley. After all, Linley’s talent had already terrified Hastings.
“We can’t let him grow any further!”
