2070 The Radiant Left Sky King, Different Beliefs, Conflicting Ideals
Above the Thousand Suns City, thousands of wars.h.i.+ps suddenly appeared in the sky.
When the Darkness Tribe cultivators saw it from afar, they panicked. “This is bad. A ma.s.sive troop from the Radiant Church has arrived.”
“We should leave now.”
“If we leave now, what about Lord Dark Dragon?”
“We won’t be of much help to Lord Dark Dragon if we stay here. We might even end up getting in his way. At times like this, we can only believe Lord Dark Dragon will be alright.”
“That’s right. Let’s go.”
They had no choice but to leave helplessly.
Meanwhile, an elderly man in long white robes was standing on deck in one of the larger wars.h.i.+ps. He had a calm expression on his face.
He looked at the Thousand Suns City shrouded within the Dark Enchanted Barrier now, his eyes cold. He said indifferently, “Everyone, on my command, deploy the Radiant Sky King Formation!”
“The Grant Priest’s order is our command!”
The Grand Priest was a high-ranked position that was only beneath the Bishop and Archbishop of the church. Every time the church wanted to deal with a great enemy, a Grand Priest would be sent.
The Grand Priest sent to the Thousand Suns City this time was called Fei Ma. He was one of the top-tiered individuals, even among the Grand Priests.
Apparently, it was only a matter of time before he became a Bishop.
“Heretics like the Dark Evil Dragon must be annihilated immediately!”
A cold glint appeared in Priest Fei Ma’s eyes.
Unfortunately, the Bishops of the church a.s.signed were situated a little far from here. By the time they arrived, the Dark Dragon would have escaped.
That was why he was sent here ahead of time.
The Radiant Church cultivators leaped into the air, forming mysterious hand signs. Then, their radiant auras started resonating, and a powerful aura emanated into the surroundings.
Soon, a gigantic radiant apparition appeared vaguely in the sky.
Meanwhile, inside Thousand Suns City, Chu Kuangren was telling the Dark Dragon to lift his Darkness Enchanted Boundary so that they could leave.
However, the moment the Dark Enchanted Boundary was lifted, what appeared in their view was a sky filled with endless radiant aura instead!
The Dark Dragon grunted softly with anger in his eyes. “This radiant aura… Is that b*stard here as well?”
It seemed that they were one step too late.
He looked into the sky and saw the Radiant Church cultivators hovering in the air. Their robes fluttered without any wind, emanating waves of radiant aura.
Meanwhile, at the location where large amounts of radiant aura gathered was a vague but gigantic radiant apparition, exuding suffocating waves of aura.
Those cultivators were setting up a formation.
They seemed to be summoning something.
“Dark Evil Dragon, one of the Eight Great Heretics, are you prepared to face your judgment?” Priest Fei Ma said indifferently as he looked at the Dark Dragon.
Then, he noticed Chu Kuangren. “And you. Judging by your aura, you’re not from the Darkness Tribe, but why are you siding with the heretic?”
“I’m free to mingle with whoever I want,” Chu Kuangren said.
Since the situation had turned out that way, he had no choice but to stand against the Radiant Church.
“If that’s the case, you shall perish along with the heretic!”
As soon as he said that, the radiant aura apparition in the sky began to materialize, and a gigantic humanoid apparition appeared.
It was a handsome blonde-haired man with endless divine light beaming from his eyes like two bright suns, which was an astonis.h.i.+ng sight.
“Dark Evil Dragon, my G.o.ddess has severely injured the Dark Demonic Ruler. And instead of staying put obediently in your prison, you break free and wreak havoc in the world. Now, be prepared to die!” the gold-haired man said indifferently.
However, the Dark Dragon chuckled. “As I expected, it really is you, you b*stard Radiant Left Sky King. Why is your true self not here instead?”
The Radiant G.o.ddess had two close subordinates.
They were known as the Radiant Left and Radiant Right Sky Kings.
The gold-haired man before them was the Radiant Left Sky King. During the past wars between light and darkness, the Dark Dragon had also suffered many battles with him before.
“Having just broke free, you possess only one percent of your full strength, and this radiant projection of mine is enough to kill you,” the Radiant Left Sky King said calmly.
After that, he raised his hand, pointed his finger, and released an attack at the Dark Dragon.
The power of that attack was incredibly vast and domineering.
Its surging radiant aura was akin to an endlessly flowing river.
With a serious expression, the Dark Dragon let out a long roar. As he opened its mouth, he breathed out a mouthful of terrifying pitch-dark dragon flames.
Following a loud boom, the two energies collided and formed an energy torrent.
Even with his current cultivation level, Chu Kuangren unconsciously retreated several kilometers back.
“This power is considered one of the top even among Primordials. It looks like we’re in trouble now.”
Chu Kuangren frowned. As he had not completely acclimated to the Great Hongmeng Universe’s laws yet, he could not unleash his full power. Even if he could, the chances of him escaping were slim in the face of the great Radiant Church’s troops.
“Boom!”
A figure was sent flying from the energy torrent.
It was the Dark Dragon.
Meanwhile, the Radiant Left Sky King whose attack only clashed once with the Dark Dragon was unscathed. He was standing in the air mightily with Immortal Sparks flowing all around him, br.i.m.m.i.n.g with endless light.
“You’re no match for me, Dark Evil Dragon,” the Radiant Left Sky King said calmly.
He raised his hand, gathered large amounts of radiant aura, and formed a gigantic ball of light. The Immortal Sparks from it illuminated the whole surroundings.
What frightened everyone more was the terrifying energy fluctuations from that ball of light.
It was so powerful that the surrounding void was about to be distorted. Most importantly, what was being affected was the Great Hongment Universe’s spatial structure.
To be able to affect the void here to such an extent proved how powerful that attack was.
“Roar!”
“Do you think I’m afraid of you?” the Dark Dragon roared, and huge amounts of dragon aura erupted.
He was going to fight with his life on the line now.
“I can’t just stand by and watch either,” Chu Kuangren thought out loud.
He looked at the Radiant Church cultivators in the sky.
‘The appearance of the Radiant Left Sky King surely has something to do with these Radiant Church cultivators. It’s most likely the power of this formation technique.’
‘If I can disrupt the formation, I can defeat the Radiant Left Sky King,’ Chu Kuangren thought.
With that, his figure disappeared in a flash and arrived in the sky, where he released a powerful punch.
“Bam!”
Following a loud blast, his vitality qi surged outward.
However, before the punch could get near the Radiant Church cultivators, it was blocked by an invisible spatial barrier.
“The formation’s protective barrier, huh?”
Chu Kuangren frowned and unleashed a few more punches.
Still, the results were the same.
“It’s no use. With your current cultivation level, there’s no way you can destroy the Radiant Sky King Formation’s protective barrier.” Priest Fei Ma said indifferently.
After that, he raised his arm and manifested a long spear in his hand that he launched toward Chu Kuangren. The attack contained an incomparably sharp intent.
Yan Xu had used that technique before as well.
However, his was worlds apart compared to Priest Fei Ma’s power.
“Boom!”
Chu Kuangren was forced backward. However, thanks to his Ultimate Physical Body, he was not badly injured.
“The Ultimate Physical Body is truly a troublesome ability to deal with.” Priest Fei Ma complimented Chu Kuangren, but his gaze immediately turned cold. He said in a cold voice, “However, those who a.s.sociate themselves with heretics shall perish along with them!”
“Heretic this, heretic that. You’re just calling everyone who believes differently a heretic. If that’s what you people consider a heretic, everyone who doesn’t join the Radiant Church is a heretic. In that case, the whole world will be full of heretics.” Chu Kuangren laughed.
“Hmph, those are nothing but words. Now, die!”
Priest Fei Ma started preparing to unleash the next killer technique. A huge golden sword had formed above his head, its razor-sharp intent already locking onto Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren’s gaze turned cold, and he was about to make a gamble with his next move.
However, a voice suddenly echoed in his mind at that moment.
