Chapter 387: Activation: Part 1
In the broken bits of music.
Lin Sheng was in darkness.
Soon, in less than three seconds, a light rose from the darkness, illuminating everything.
In the darkness in front of him, a huge sandbox was slowly emerging.
It was a city of fine colored sand, with a pure white silky stream flowing on it. It was a vast network of holy forces, made up of a large number of pract.i.tioners of holy forces in the city.
“Looks like a line from a distance, but is it actually a very large number of dots?”
Lin Sheng was familiar with the scene. This was the scene when you first enter the control s.p.a.ce after activating the little Holy Sanctum.
“Where are the options?” He gave a quick glance, and on the right side of the table he found a fine line of words: ‘Prepare the Holy Sanctum’.
He touched the line of word lightly.
“Prepare the Holy Sanctum—the core of the Ashen Seal is Lin Sheng, the holy priest.
“Holy Sanctum force field: spiritual cleansing, weak level. (Can slightly affect the negative state of living beings, purify a little negative spirit)
“Can be promoted to the Sanctum of Dawn, the Sanctum of Dusk, the Sanctum of Shadow.”
Lin Sheng did not hesitate to choose the moderate The Sanctum of Dusk.
“The Sanctum of Dusk: a special temple with a certain amount of defensive power. Banish alien evil. There is a certain healing magic that can shelter a region and bring security and hope to the people.
“Holy power required: 200 units.”
He directly confirmed the choice of the Sanctum of Dusk while opening the holy power font.
In the holy power font, the holy forces were rising and falling like the tide.
A large number of people prayed in the city, praying for the salvation of the Holy Sanctum, the holy power, and the holy light.
As the prayer continued, a flood of forces was pouring into the holy power font.
Lin Sheng glanced at the holy power unit data in the font at this time, “117”
“Over a hundred already? That was quick. But not quick enough…” A flood of holy forces began to pour into the font from Lin Sheng.
Immediately, he saw the holy power unit went up rapidly: 117, 186, 199, 287, 399, 476…
Lin Sheng stopped injecting holy power when the number reached 500.
“When I activated the little Holy Sanctum of Xylond, the sacred force there was only three, and now it’s 500.”
Lin Sheng laughed. He chose the Sanctum of Dusk because the holy power font was sufficient now.
“Choice: The Sanctum of Dusk.
“Connecting to the Advance Magic Inst.i.tute… Connection failed.
“Connecting to the First Mage Tower of Blackfeather City… Connection failed.
“Backup mode is enabled. Initiating the progression of the base form of The Sanctum of Dusk…”
People waiting for the result in the prayer hall suddenly saw a circle of sunset-like halo spread silently from the foot of Lin Sheng.
The halo moved from slow to fast, centered on Lin Sheng, and zooming through everything around it.
The halo sped past the walls, the floor tiles, the tables and chairs in the hall, the books of inheritance, the ornate reliefs and decorations, and the people.
“What is it?” Cainphas reached out curiously, trying to touch the red halo.
His fingers felt a warm touch as the halo sped by.
As the halo swept over his body, Cainphas’s nervousness as well as repressed discomfort in the past few days soon dissipated with it, and his mind became clear.
“It’s an amazing power…” He gasped.
Not only he, but others in the prayer hall clearly felt the benefits and comfort of the red halo that swept through their bodies.
The weariness and discomfort on their bodies were swept away by the red halo, and even the mental and physical exhaustion was obviously replenished.
This was not a special means of stimulating the body’s potential to obtain short-term supplements, but a real supplement to the physical state.
The red halo started from the little temple, sped over the manor, the meadow, and the wall.
The halo grew larger and larger, and in a moment it was spreading out in all directions in a huge circle.
In this region, all the fog created by the Blacktide was dispelled, while the real Blacktide was suppressed, rapidly shrinking and no longer expanding.
All the citizens who hid in their homes because of fear and worry felt warm and comfortable in the red halo, and they also seemed to hear the mysterious holy song.
The difference between The Sanctum of Dusk and The Sanctum of Shadow was that this branch had not only the power to protect, but also the power to heal, the power to expel, and the power to guide faith.
Simply put, compared with the Sanctum of Shadow, the Sanctum of Dusk was more like a panacea. It had all kinds of functions, but nothing was specialized.
The Sanctum of Dusk required a full range of functions to deal with a wide range of problems, while the Sanctum of Shadow was entirely focused on the force.
The red halo swept through the city at high speed, occupying two-thirds of the city in less than ten seconds. And when a large, circular guard area was completely formed, the halo slowly dissipated.
Standing on the prayer stage, Lin Sheng closed his eyes and looked again at the new options.
“The Sanctum of Dusk: Lin Sheng, Lord of the Sanctum.
“Holy Force: 431 units.
“Skill: Spiritual purification, weak level.
“Range: One ring.”
“Not bad, not bad.” Lin Sheng was satisfied. It was a much better start than Xylond.
The holy power font here was replenished at a rate that was a million times faster than the Xylond. In addition, there was no need for height as high as that of Xylond. After the height was compressed, the range of one ring was greatly improved, which can cover such a large area.
“This is the power of faith…” Lin Sheng seemed to see a ma.s.s of believers bowing their heads and praying.
The replenishment rate of the holy force entered a new burst period as the red halo spread.
He could feel that the sacred force was replenishing at least twice as fast as it had begun, and was still accelerating.
“At this rate, in a few days, the Holy Sanctum will rise to the top. Very good!”
Lin Sheng calmed his mind and thought about any divine skills that could be added to the Holy Sanctum.
The divine skill was a special ability that the clergy could freely use when given by the sacred temple. After entering the Holy Sanctum area, all of the clergies were eligible for a certain number of times of use of divine skill with the permission of the Lord of the Holy Sanctum.
Of course, the use of divine skills would consume the holy force.
Once the clergy had acquired the ability to use divine skill, they were free to use it even if they leave the Holy Sanctum, but the holy force that needed to be consumed when using the divine skill was totally different within and outside the sanctum.
