Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest.

Chapter 260: The Invasion of the Fang Head
The six black shadows approached the church from different directions.

Their movements were stealthy and silent - if the "Ghost Falcon" hadn't warned them in advance, it would have been difficult to detect their tracks.

This is the advantage of the research of the "Fangbei Academy"... Luo Xiu thought. He had already asked all the church members to be on guard, and now they were waiting for the group of "獠首" to break into the church and enter their ambush range.

About ten minutes passed.

On the crystal surface of the "Ghost Falcon", various colored "spirituals" began to vibrate at a high frequency.

The first batch of "獠头" have entered the church.

When he noticed the changes on the "Ghost Falcon", Luo Xiu immediately left the room and left the "High Priest's Residence".

A moment later, he arrived at the inner courtyard of the church with a staff emitting a faint green light in his hand.

At this time, the night is falling, and the outlines of the church buildings appear more solemn and dignified against the moonlight. The occasional cry of one or two night birds from a distance further highlights the tranquility of the inner courtyard.

However, in such a solemn, sacred and peaceful environment, the atmosphere of danger deepens and spreads in the shadows.

Several deep spiritual surges were approaching from afar.

Their purpose was quite clear - "the residence of the high priest", which made Luo Xiu even more certain that he was their target.

When he noticed their actions, Luo Xiu did not rush back to his residence, but went directly to the "Shuyu Statue Altar".

In Luo Xiu's field of vision, several dark shadows broke into his residence one after another. They seemed to be certain that the "High Priest" of the church must be in the residence.

When half of the black shadow clearly entered the residence and the other half stayed outside to support, Luo Xiu raised his right hand, and a golden mark appeared on the back of his hand.

——The shining golden barrier!
The barrier that could not be entered or exited freely without permission, - a dazzling golden light curtain enveloped the periphery of the residence like gold foil.

When the group of "Fang Leaders" who broke into the High Priest's residence realized that the "Chief High Priest" of the church was not in the residence, Luo Xiu took action first and temporarily trapped half of them inside the residence!

——Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Soon, Luo Xiu heard a lingering buzzing sound.

And on the golden light curtain covering the residence, ripples began to appear.

The "Golden Barrier" is under attack! "The Fangshou" begins to try to break the barrier so that they can be reunited after being separated by the barrier.

They probably discovered that the church's "high priest" was not in the residence at all! Not only that, they were also tricked by me... Luo Xiu thought about this and quickened his pace to the "altar of the statue".

Luo Xiu knew that under the continuous siege of six "Fang Heads", even the "Golden Barrier" with the highest protection level could not hold out for too long.

He must complete the next action as soon as possible before the barrier is broken.

……

After about two minutes, the "Statue Altar" appeared at the edge of Luo Xiu's vision.

When he reached the altar, he opened his arms and began to pray:
"——Please use the holy flame to ignite the fire of the wrong path!"

"——Pray for the glory to penetrate the golden wall!"

"--Those who have turned away must be converted."

"——The coveter will eventually perish."

"——I swear to judge in the name of Holy Light!"

——Buzz! Just as Luo Xiu finished reciting this short prayer, his mana suddenly decreased by half, and the surface of the Sun-Casting Statue in front of him also emitted a dazzling golden light.

Afterwards, the already bright and dazzling golden light on the surface of the "Golden Barrier" covering the residence deepened even more.

——Affected by the sacred power of “Glory”, the solidity of the “Golden Barrier” has been temporarily greatly improved!

This meant that the three "獠首" who were trapped and died inside would no longer have any chance of breaking the barrier and escaping in a short period of time.

This is also a special strengthening method that Luo Xiu has mastered from the knowledge of the "Great Sun Shining Gold Barrier". Although the base of the "Great Sun Shining Gold Barrier" has not yet been built, it can also be used on the "Shining Gold Barrier" with the same power source.

At the same time, within Luo Xiu's "spiritual" exploration, the six sources of deep spiritual surges were all "ignited" with a dim golden light.

It was some kind of special mark - capable of marking the real-time location of all those who were not "Glorious" and had extraordinary destiny within the range of influence of the "barrier".

In the real world, visible to the naked eye, the surface of the "fang heads" will also be covered with a faint golden outline.

This makes it easy for them to be detected by the extraordinary people of [Glory] even if they conceal their breath and hide their bodies, so that they can attack them more effectively or avoid the danger they may bring.

After completing all this, Luo Xiu slowly walked down the Xuyu altar.

And at the edge of his perception, inside and outside his residence, the group of "fang heads" seemed to be in a state of anxiety.

They didn't know what had happened yet, but they had already guessed that they were in some bad situation.

But the advantage in numbers was enough to dispel this bad feeling. They began to attack the barrier more frequently, eager to break it.

——Boom! Boom boom boom! The heavy sound resounded like thunder, constantly shaking the surrounding air.

But Luo Xiu would not give them more chances. He would never watch the moment when the barrier was broken.

The next moment, he summoned the "Golden Pegasus", turned over, rode on the horse's back, and soared into the air.

Just as the "Golden Pegasus" was flying into the air, balls of bright golden light suddenly lit up in the outer part of the "High Priest's Residence" of the church below it!

They were all clergymen of the church! They had already received instructions from the high priest and had been on guard in the inner courtyard in advance. Now they all went out and ambushed the "獠首".

……

At the moment when the "Golden Barrier" of the High Priest's residence became brighter, the priests also received the "signal" and began to surround the residence.

At this time, the eight "deacons" of the three holy sanctuaries have each completed the preparation of their "holy arts", including the other priests behind them, who have also condensed the light balls of holy arts in their hands, ready to unleash them on the enemies in front of them at any time!
In addition, the "Crazy" puppets obtained from Fangbeiyuan have also revealed their shapes.

Mayev controlled the "Mountain Giant" - in the open space between the priests and the "Fang Head", a huge solid stone first appeared, and then deep cracks appeared in the solid stone. The giant "sleeping" in the stone woke up, gradually consolidated, and stood up its tall and strong body.

The "mountain giant" looked down at the group of "fang heads" from a high position, just like humans looking down at tiny moles.

Under Mayev's control, the "mountain giant" raised its huge feet and trampled on the heads of the "fang heads".

--boom! ! !

A deafening roar was heard, accompanied by a violent shaking of the earth. Just outside the residence, the three "fang heads" were surrounded by smoke and dust caused by the giants' trampling. Before the smoke and dust cleared, the "mountain giant" controlled by Mayyev had raised his feet again and trampled forward again!
--boom! ! !

Before the aftermath of the previous shock had passed, the earth was shaken again with an even more violent shock.

The smoke and dust in the air has become thicker and more turbid.

After two waves of trampling passed, Anthony, the chief officer of the "Holy Inquisition", immediately gave the order to attack.

Beams of light, trailing golden tails, fell rapidly into the smoke and dust ahead like meteors.

——Boom! Boom! Boom! The explosions continued, and in the smoke, the golden light became brighter and brighter, as if illuminating every wisp of smoke.

The thick smell of earth was constantly permeating and spreading, and three blurry figures kept appearing and disappearing in the smoke, and the light of the holy flame was burning the outlines of their bodies.

As the smoke gradually dissipated and the light faded, the three "fang heads" gradually revealed their figures.

The leader was a true giant, a warrior of Kutu's destiny. Behind him were two fang-headed men wearing cloaks whose faces could not be seen clearly.

But from their appearance and the abilities they have demonstrated, it is easy to judge their destiny.

One of them held a staff inlaid with crimson magic crystals, while the other held tiny miniature puppets that looked like enlarged mosquitoes hovering around them. They belonged to the fates of [Lost] and [Intelligence] respectively, the former's job was "Spellcaster" and the latter's was "Alchemist".

Their cloaks had been torn into narrow rips, revealing their original attire. Their bodies were not intact after being attacked intensively, with wounds of varying depths carved into them, and the blood seeping out was staining the silk cloth covering them red.

"...Afatak, it seems that you have missed the opportunity given to you by Master Koros to atone for your sins."

Behind the three-meter-tall "giant", the "spell caster" wearing a pitch-black cloak spoke sinisterly:
"We were ambushed... The Church has learned of our whereabouts... We are in a very bad situation now..."

Afatak did not respond to his words, but just looked at the other "giant" in front of him with a cold expression.

Except for his hometown in the "Storm Continent", where Afatak had memories of fighting giants that were several times larger than himself, after he sneaked to the Fanor Continent, he rarely encountered opponents larger than himself.

However, the "mountain giant" in front of him inexplicably awakened some of Afatak's memories and stirred his giant blood a little.

The "mountain giant" was lowering its huge head. Although it had no eyes, it seemed to be looking down on and even despising him. This made Afatak, a true "giant", feel a little annoyed.

He then swung up the huge hammer studded with spikes, and a strong aura suddenly burst out from his body, locking onto the enemy in front of him.

At this time, the "Mountain Giant" controlled by Mayev had raised its feet again and was about to press down on the head of the enemy in front of it.

The clergy of other churches had also prepared the next round of holy magic, waiting for Anthony to give them instructions to attack.

However, just as the "mountain giant" was about to step down and cause the ground to sink into a deep pit again.

——BOOM!!! A roar came from the other foot of the "Mountain Giant", and at the same time, the figure of the "Storm Warrior" Afatak disappeared from the spot!
He rushed to the feet of the "mountain giant" at an extremely fast speed, just a moment before the giant foot of the "mountain giant" was about to trample down!

The huge club in Afatak's hand smashed heavily on the ankle of the "mountain giant" in an instant. The violent shock shook the earth, and pieces of gravel rolled down from the body of the "mountain giant".

Its trampling action stopped, and its left foot, which it relied on to maintain its center of gravity, was attacked, forcing it to drop its right foot early to keep its huge body balanced.

But the moment the "mountain giant" stood firm again, it quickly clenched its giant fists of solid rock, lowered its body, and smashed towards Afatak's head with a strong wind!

—Bang! Afatak raised his club to block the blow. The loud noise and the surging air like the waves of the sea once again began to spread outward rapidly from the point where they collided.

Afatak caught the punch from the "Mountain Giant"!

He caught the powerful punch from the terrifying enemy in front of him who was several times his size!

This visually distinct scene made people who were watching the battle here feel surprised and shocked.

……

"Storm Warrior" Afatak is indeed very powerful, far more powerful than the ordinary "Quadruple Destiny" extraordinary people.

Luo Xiu, who was riding on the "Golden Pegasus" Pegasus and observing the battle situation from high in the sky, also had a deeper understanding of Afatak's strength in his heart.

He is not like the "Mountain Giant" who specializes in "physical attack" and "health". The essence of Afatak's profession is still a "Storm Warrior" with certain special abilities.

But he has not yet shown his "Storm" side - relying solely on his own strong body, he was able to fight the "Mountain Giant" head-on. Even among the extraordinary people with the "Ku Tu" destiny, few extraordinary people with the "quadruple destiny" can do it.

At this time, the mountain giants and Afatak were still bombarding each other, and the roaring sound was endless. Their fierce battle would continue for a long time.

The three "Fang Heads" trapped in the "Golden Barrier" were still trying to break the barrier. Outside, the "Storm Warrior" Afatak was fighting fiercely with the "Mountain Giant", and there were still two "Fang Heads" who were not stopped.

The eyes of the "Sorcerer" and the "Alchemist" under their cloaks were locked on Maeyev who was controlling the giant, and Anthony who was commanding all the clergy to attack, and they took direct action the next moment.

The scarlet light of the curse suddenly gushed out from the "curser's" raised staff and rushed towards Anthony like a bloodthirsty snake.

A feeling of suffocation suddenly climbed up like a maggot on the tarsal bone and strangled Anthony's throat.

The air around him seemed to become stagnant and heavy. When Anthony realized the danger, it was too late for him to dodge.

Just as Anthony swung his hammer and prepared to withstand the cursed light surge.

A golden beam of light filled with the spirituality of "annihilation" descended from the sky in the next instant!

——Boom! The beam of light hit the "Spell Master" heavily, and the incomparable "Annihilation" holy flame burned his skinny body.

——"Holy Roar of Pegasus"! That was the furious roar of the "Golden Pegasus", and the annihilation light column it condensed hit the body of the "Spellcaster" firmly, severely injuring him when he was caught off guard!

The scarlet light emitted by the "Spellcaster" also became out of control due to the temporary loss of spiritual guidance.

The chaotic light surge immediately exploded and dispersed, leaving behind a trace of erosion and pits in its place.

Justice from the sky! Luo Xiu nodded. He was very satisfied with the effect of Pegasus's charged attack, and then threw out another ball of light.

The next moment, the "Holy Flame Wolf King" Fenrir landed in the center of the battlefield!

"——Roar!" After revealing his true form, Fenrir pounced directly at the fangs of another "alchemist" and crushed the puppet he had hastily summoned.

The battle situation has become controllable, and Luo Xiu then slowly landed on Pegasus.

He will carry out the final harvest.
