Chapter 1056: Wisdom
In the sky, a large area of the white mist spread out mixed with countless terrifying howls. The entire s.p.a.ce seemed to be shaking slightly.
Paglio and Krobelus were startled at the same time. The number of the wandering spirits in this batch was far beyond imagination. If the wandering spirits that surrounded them before were likened to a small stream, the one that appeared in front of them now was the big river!
According to Chen Rui’s introduction and the experience acc.u.mulated these days, the wandering spirits of the Demi-G.o.d level definitely exist in the group of the wandering spirits of this scale. Thinking of what Catherine said before, the 2 became more nervous.
[Flame of Nirvana] had a special effect on the wandering spirits. In addition to super effective killing, it could also sense the strength of the wandering spirits, seek good luck and avoid evil. These wandering spirits were probably the chasers that Catherine sensed when the 3 retreated before. They were chasing after their living breath.
Although Catherine’s [Flame of Nirvana] could restrain the wandering spirits, her own strength was only at the peak stage of the Kingdom Level which could not compete with the wandering spirits of the Demi-G.o.d level. While Paglio’s combat power was especially good for the wandering spirits, the lethality was far less than that of Catherine. If they fight head-on, the wandering spirits could engulf the 3 of them in an instant.
Now he could only hope for the concealment of the Dragon Inscription and not let the wandering spirits notice.
Contrary to what was expected, the speed of the wandering spirits’ progress suddenly slowed down as if they had noticed something. The hearts of the emerald dragon and the poison dragon were suddenly tense.
The wandering spirits had no intelligence nor emotions such as joy, anger, sadness, and so on; they only had a fighting instinct. However, the more simple this instinct was, the more terrifying it was. It was not disturbed by superficial illusions at all. The sensory abilities of the wandering spirits were not the hearing of ordinary people, but the sense of the breath of life. The more sensitive the wandering spirit sense was, the more powerful it was. Unless one had a special talent for hiding, it was almost impossible to survive.
Paglio’s Dragon Inscription was only the power of the Kingdom Level, and it might not be able to hide from the wandering spirits of the Demi-G.o.d Level.
The wandering spirits began to stop. There was no group. They just slowly dispersed in place, searching for a possible breath of life.
Paglio took Krobelus’ hands, feeling the cold sweat on each other’s hands, “If anything happens, I’ll hold them and you’ll run away immediately with Catherine.”
This inscription array had a sound insulation effect, so the movement inside could not be heard from the outside temporarily.
“Paglio.” Krobelus’ eyes were red.
“Now is not the time to talk about facing life and death together because it’s not just the 2 of us here” Paglio sighed, “Catherine, it’s me who dragged her into this or we dragged her. No matter what, we need to keep her alive.”
This time, at another place.
The same group of white mist-like wandering spirits but in far smaller numbers. The party in battle seemed at ease.
More than a dozen of the wandering spirits flew upward, not flying autonomously, but lost their balance and were knocked off by some force.
In the blink of an eye, a blue lightning flashed. The wandering spirits were repeatedly swept by the lightning from all angles in the air, shaking violently. After a few seconds, the lightning stopped. It was Roman who was holding blue blades.
Roman’s left eye flashed a strange light. He seemed to wave the blades at random, but he utilized the force to shake off the spirit erosion power. A breeze swept past, and the wandering spirits above shook in unison, turning into ashes and disappearing at the same time.
“So handsome!” Medilu’s eyes flashed like stars.
Roman became more smug when he heard it, but Delia’s indifferent voice sounded, “Medilu, don’t console him.”
Console? Master Roman raised his eyebrows and saw Delia beside him pointing to the sky.
A green lightning flickered with swift speed, several times faster than Roman before. It flashed in front of Roman in an instant, showing the figure of Isabella.
Roman remembered that the wandering spirits that had surrounded her before were around 5 times more than his, but now they were all cleared in an instant.
In actual combat, everyone unexpectedly discovered that the Eye of Evil of the Belphegor Royal Family could restrain the special undead characteristic of the wandering spirits to a certain extent. Combined with the soul power of Delia’s Eye of Incubus, they could completely eliminate the wandering spirits in a short time. Of course, due to the limitation of their own strength, the objects that could be restrained were generally the wandering spirits of the early stage of the Kingdom Level and below.
Madam Aunt looked at nephew with a smile and spread her palm. There were 2 law fragments in her palm, “Handsome Little Roman, what’s your harvest?”
‘Little Roman’ smiled sheepishly as his eyes were fixed on the Breeze Shadow Boots on her feet, “That seems a little unfair, dearest Madam Aunt.”
“I think it’s fair.” Sir Uncle’s voice sounded, “Little Roman, if you have any opinions, let’s go back to the Dark Moon and have a good discussion now?”
“Hehe, most dearest Sir Uncle, of course I have no problem with that.” Little Roman’ didn’t want to leave this gem land of training – The leader could always avoid the hardest and find the most suitable group of wandering spirits for them to train. He had completely stabilized the strength of the early stage of the Kingdom Level. It was only a matter of time before reaching the next small realm.
“Hmph!” Delia asked Medilu while looking at the flattering Roman, “Is this guy still handsome?”
“En.” Medilu nodded.
Delia was speechless for a while. Alright, I will not argue with an anthomaniac like you.
Chen Rui didn’t continue to tease Roman. With a wave, several Demon Overlord-level wandering spirits ambus.h.i.+ng Samuel in the distance turned to dust. Samuel’s long sword swung out several light streams to slash the wandering spirits nearby. With a flash, he returned to Chen Rui’s side with multiple wounds on his body while panting heavily.
“Don’t force it, Samuel.” Chen Rui shook his head, “Haste makes waste. You are just forcefully breaking through to the peak stage of the Demon Overlord realm. The most important thing at present is to consolidate and master the existing power. Going too far will only backfire, understand?”
“Master, I understand.” Samuel lowered his head in shame.
After coming to the Demon Realm, the pressure on the golden knight was actually quite high because most of the helpers at master’s side were at the Kingdom Level. Yet, he had just reached the intermediate stage of the Demon Overlord, and it was also due to the star conferring and various buffs. So, Samuel had always wanted to quickly improve his strength. He would enter the ‘special s.p.a.ce’ of time law every day and practice hard.
Now that he came to this mysterious place, the previous acc.u.mulation in the ‘special s.p.a.ce’ finally unleashed and he broke through to the peak stage of the Demon Overlord. Unfortunately, as Chen Rui said, he was indeed too anxious for success.
The wandering spirits whose bodies shattered nearby began to gather again. Chen Rui looked at everyone, and the Crown of Thorns appeared on his head with white light. He had activated [Divine Healing]. Everyone’s injuries recovered quickly, and the spirit erosion power they had suffered also gradually faded away.
“Wait a minute! Master! Don’t use this power!” A horrified voice from a nearby ‘wandering spirit’. It was actually Guradam.
It turned out that the corpse necromancer had lost that skeleton on the first day of the trial, leaving only the soul. Subsequently, Guradam came up with the crazy idea of trying to merge with the wandering spirits. After capturing the weakest wandering spirit at the Demon Emperor, Guradam activated a secret technique to attach to the wandering spirits, and they actually merged into one after these days of hard work. This success made Guradam ecstatic, and he was currently conducting further research. Although he had become a ‘wandering spirit’, his soul was still afraid of the nemesis’ power, especially [Divine Healing] which could be regarded as the strongest healing power.
Chen Rui smiled slightly and turned on the target function, excluding Guradam from the healing target.
At this moment, Chen Rui sensed the changes in the Super System. He immediately informed everyone. With a thought, his consciousness had entered the Super System.
“Catherine!” Chen Rui was surprised and delighted when he saw Catherine appearing in the main hall of Galaxy Divinity Temple at a glance.
Being able to appear here means that Catherine has completed the 2-star evolution!
Chen Rui always thought that Isabella would be the second, but Catherine was a step ahead.
“This must be where Zola said, the inheritance world of ancient civilizations.” Catherine looked around curiously. She looked at the vast galaxy and praised sincerely, “It’s beautiful.”
“Congratulations, you are about to be 1 of the madams in this universe.” Chen Rui took Catherine’s hand, “How do you feel?”
“This is a special feeling with a bit of familiarity. It’s like when I am usually trusted and respected by my subjects as a ruler. When I see this universe, I feel as if I’m a nebula with countless stars, integrating into this great whole ent.i.ty.”
“Ruler? Faith?” When Chen Rui was thinking, the Galaxy Divinity Temple flashed, and Veronica appeared.
“Sorry, I was dealing with some believers’ prayers just now, so I am late.” Veronica saw Catherine and bowed, “This must be Your Majesty Catherine. As an oracle, I’m honored to see your Galaxy Divinity Statue. I’m Veronica.”
Catherine smiled gently as she bowed back, “Just call me Catherine. It’s a pleasure to meet you, Veronica.”
Because of Zola and Isabella, the story of a prince’s ‘first love’ in the former human world had long been circulated in the harem, including the rather bleak ending. Everyone was still very sympathetic to Veronica who only had a soul left. Of course, Veronica losing her body also meant that she has lost a certain compet.i.tiveness and threat. This might be 1 of the reasons why the harem did not reject her.
Veronica nodded and praised Catherine’s extraordinary temperament. I heard Zola say that Chen Rui seemed to have more than 1 empress as his wives.
These women should be able to feel happy.
I can too now.
When Chen Rui’s thoughts changed, the 3 instantly came to the Pillar of Faith. A beam of light covered Catherine and absorbed her into the Tower of Faith.
The Tower of Faith shone brightly, along with Catherine’s Galaxy Divinity Statue at the Star Conferring Platform.
After a period of time, when Catherine reappeared, her breath had undergone earth-shaking changes. The entire Super System had also undergone corresponding changes. With the fusion of Catherine’s spirit and the galaxy, ‘miracles’ happened in those living planets just like Zola last time. A large number of believers and corresponding faith buildings had also appeared.
“It’s an amazing power.” Veronica’s eyes lit up and she bowed, “Once again, it’s my honor, madam G.o.ddess who masters ‘wisdom’.”
What Catherine integrated was the faith origin of ‘wisdom’.
Catherine looked at her hands in surprise, “This felt like a key that opened the door to the heart. The feeling and power that the [Star-level Enhancement] brought are infinitely magnified.”
Chen Rui also had this feeling. After adding a G.o.ddess, not only the Super System had changed, but his power had also become more and more majestic. This change contained a profound truth. It was constantly refined and filled with Star Power. In fact, it would be more obvious when he activates [Purple Pole Star Transformation].
“Not only that, I also clearly captured… Wait.” Catherine frowned as her tone changed, “The situation is not good.”
“What happened?” Chen Rui reacted immediately and was taken aback. “Your original body? Where is it?”
“It’s too late.” Catherine suddenly thought of something, “Is there room for that kind of time law here?”
Chen Rui glanced at her in surprise and already understood her thoughts, “Of course, and it’s the ‘original’ training ground. I’ll go in with you.
