Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest.

Chapter 557 [Pillar of Scourge]! (Second update)

"--roar!!!!!"

Looking at the "Archbishop" in front of him, the "Devourer Dragon" Fafnir Ramshanks, who was blocking his way, He roared in extreme anger.

He felt more and more that the archbishop in front of him was a very dangerous and troublesome person.

The previous attacks on the Holy Maiden of [Glory] were all intervened and resolved by the archbishop, and now he was once again trapped in the confinement of [The Manifestation of the Unforgiven], and it became quite difficult to do anything else!

"..."

"you……"

The "Devourer Dragon" Fafnir Ramshanks, his dragon jaws spewing out darkness slightly opened, and his four dark and gloomy dragon pupils stared in the direction of "Archbishop" Luo Xiu.

He was about to say something, but stopped abruptly - he saw Luo Xiu had raised the scepter in his hand and was praying in Sanskrit -

"I am the incarnation of Holy Wings."

"I have dedicated myself to the ultimate level of glory—"

"With this holy prayer of divine calling;"

"Please come, angels!"

……

——Buzz!!!!!!!

It was on the back of Luo Xiu's right hand, who had entered the state of "Holy Wing Incarnation". While he was performing such a sacred prayer, an incomparably bright glow of the Holy Seal was emanating!
——That is the Level II authority of [Glory], the "Seal of Divine Calling"!
And around Luo Xiu, the door of divine descent condensed into three at the same time, and three "four-winged angels" slowly descended from them!
They noticed the "Devouring Dragon" at the same time - then, they spread their wings that were overflowing with shining holy light and flew towards the direction of the Devouring Dragon!
At this time, the "Devouring Dragon" was seriously injured and close to death.

In addition to the "Four-Winged Angel" Tatia and the "Four-Winged Angel" Azphiel, the three "Four-Winged Angels" summoned by the "Holy Winged Messenger" Luo Xiu with the sacred skill of "Glory" "The Grace of Holy Wings" and the authority "Seal of Divine Summons" can also defeat the "Devouring Dragon" in its true name.

But Luo Xiu always felt that the "Devouring Dragon" who was the "Original Demon" might not be able to successfully reveal His true name even if there were five "Four-Winged Angels" on the scene.

This is the difference in status - even if He has already opened the form of "Holy Wing Incarnation" and can be regarded as a "Four-winged Angel" of equal status, it may not be enough to reveal His true name.

But there is still a way - it is the one that was used on the "True Ancestor Demon" and "Greedy Tyrant" Brigantis, using the "Scripture of the Abyss" to create a "demon incarnation" - in this way, one can temporarily become the new "Ancestor Demon" or even the "Original Demon"!
However, in the current situation, it is definitely not appropriate to take any measures related to the [Abyss]... Luo Xiu thought.

He knew that it was too dangerous, and the risks of trying to "uncover" the "true name" of the Devouring Dragon might be greater than the benefits.

While he was thinking about all this, he was preparing for the next few holy prayers that would bombard the "Devouring Dragon".

"--roar!!!!!"

He heard the roar of an ancient dragon.

The roar did not come from the Devouring Dragon, but from the battlefield below—

Luo Xiu lowered his head slightly, and then he saw that from the golden sea that was crashing into the scarlet earth, the Devouring Dragon's "follower" - the "Silver-blooded Disaster Dragon" Hogsmos, was actually rushing towards him regardless of everything!

Chasing after Him are the "Four-Winged Angel" Tatia and the Archangel Azphiel.

They were still engaged in a fierce battle with the "Silver-Blooded Disaster Dragon" Hogsmos just now, but when Franya regained the authority of [The Manifestation of the Unforgiven], He seemed to be dominated and summoned by some higher power!
In his chaotic consciousness, the only target he wanted to "destroy" was only one -

He must kill the "Archbishop" Ross Carlos at all costs. Even if he dies as a result, he must eliminate this threat first!

"--roar!!!!!"

Hogsmos's roar was getting closer and closer. The air was vibrating more violently because of his roar. Even the spectral fire on his body was burning uncontrollably.

Behind Him are two angels chasing Him like golden shooting stars.

Luo Xiu had already seen Hogsmos, and then looked at Tatia behind him. At the same moment, he felt the transmission of Tatia's spirit, and heard his voice in his ears at the same time -

"This ancient dragon's 'real name'."

Tatia's voice sounded, briefly and concisely stating -

"That is [Silver Blood Disaster Dragon·Fallen Corpse·Hogsmos·The Devoured One]."

"..."

"I see."

Luo Xiu nodded slightly.

He stared at the silver-blooded disaster dragon getting closer and closer, then raised his left hand slightly.

The silver ring on his left middle finger had a silver-white "eye" gem in the center that emitted a bright silver light. Before the Silver-Blooded Disaster Dragon actually hit him, the light had already covered and engulfed him!

That was one of the ancient dragon's holy artifacts, "Hogsmos Silver Eye"!
Luo Xiu immediately activated his inherent skill, [True Dragon's Angry Eyes], which had nine layers of ancient dragon's residual soul!
"--roar!!!!!"

When the silver light completely hit the "Silver-Blooded Disaster Dragon" Hogsmos, it was visible to the naked eye that his movements came to a momentary stagnation.

Even the ghostly flames emanating from his body dimmed a little - it was not that he was under irresistible control, but that something had sprouted from within his body and consciousness.

It was the same as when Luo Xiu used the [Dragon Flame Demon Sword] and the [Dragon Breath Scepter] to take back Quesanx's sanity.

The light emitted by [Hogsmos's Silver Eyes] to the "Silver-Blooded Disaster Dragon" Hogsmos does indeed have the same effect!
When Luo Xiu watched the reaction of "Silver-Blooded Disaster Dragon" Hogsmos, he understood all of this at the first moment.

Then, he lowered his left hand again, and in the brief moment when Hogsmoth was stagnant, the Dragon Breath Scepter in his right hand was already pointing at Him——

"I will erase your demonic true name, the Fallen Ancient Dragon."

The scepter in Luo Xiu's hand was already emitting a brilliant light, and he began to chant in a sacred Sanskrit voice:

"Keep the blasphemy away from you, you will be pure and return to the name that belongs to you."

“——【Silver-blooded Disaster Dragon·Fallen Corpse·Hogsmos·The Devoured One】!”

"..."

"--roar!!!!!"

When Luo Xiu chanted out His real name in its entirety - and chanted it in the posture of an angel with "Holy Wings Incarnation", the deep flames that burst out from the body of "Silver Blood Disaster Dragon" Hogsmos suddenly gushed out and burst forth completely!
But the core of the dark flame had already turned into a pale color, and pieces of darkness began to separate out from his body until they dissipated completely into the air and returned to nothingness.

In Luo Xiu's spiritual vision——

He saw the dark flames that emerged and entangled around the "Silver Blood Disaster Dragon" Hogmoth, and then they disappeared after a burst of gushing and bursting. The edges of the dark flames that wrapped around the blasphemous inscriptions began to burn and quickly burned to ashes.

The "real name" of "Silver-blooded Disaster Dragon" Hogsmos is being taken away!

It was taken away by Luo Xiu, who was regarded as the equivalent of a "four-winged angel"!

“——Roar!!!!” “Silver-Blooded Disaster Dragon” Hogsmos, once again let out a shocking roar.

But the roar was no longer as angry and violent as before. It was as if He had found a clear and pure self, and His rationality seemed to have returned a little.

And in Luo Xiu's ears, there was even a calm, even gentle, neutral voice.

[…Thank you. The Son of Man who follows the ‘Glory’. ]

【It allowed me to die in a conscious state.】

【…】

The sound then dissipated, leaving only a vague echo in Luo Xiu's ears. But then, Luo Xiu saw that the "Silver Blood Disaster Dragon" Hogmos in front of him roared again, and then turned to face the direction of the "Devouring Dragon"!

"--roar!!!!!"

This time, His roar was filled with resentment. Even though His body was on the verge of collapse, He still rushed towards the Devouring Dragon with His original free will.

Until the undead dragon body, which was already a mess of silver blood and flesh, completely collided with the body of the "Devouring Dragon" which was several times larger than it.

--boom!!!!!!!

An unprecedentedly violent and terrifying explosion spread violently with the end point of the Hogsmos collision as the center!
The silver-blood storm completely shook apart, dragging the surrounding air into nothingness, forming a vacuum.

Luo Xiu, who was hundreds of meters away from the Devouring Dragon, felt the suffocating impact and a strong sense of oppression coming from right in front of him.

In the storm of light mist, blood, and flesh, the "Devouring Dragon" - He had already broken two of His Deep Dragon Wings in Hogsmos' self-explosion, and now He broke three more!

His entire body was even burned by the terrifying destructive force. Almost half of the dragon neck under one dragon head was blown off, and the two deep dragon eyes were also blown away.

At this moment, without the need for confirmation from the panel, Luo Xiu could feel that the "Devouring Dragon" must have fallen into a truly "dying" state.

A new content suddenly appeared on his panel, which was about the ongoing limited-time "annihilation" difficulty task [Death and Rebirth of the Devourer] -

[“Silver Blood Dragon” Hogsmos has died]

[Secondary mission objective: Kill or seal the follower of the "Devourer Dragon" - "Silver Blood Dragon" Hogmoth (completed)]

This is the reminder that the "Silver-Blooded Disaster Dragon" Hogsmos has indeed "disappeared"!

He caused his own final destruction and collapse, causing the "Devourer Dragon" Fafnir Ramshanks to suffer a huge and severe blow!

"--roar!!!!!"

This time the roar came from the "Devouring Dragon".

There was such disbelief in his voice, as if he couldn't believe that what he saw was real.

The "follower" that he had worked so hard to transform - another "true ancestor demon" Hogsmos, was "betrayed" so easily!

This betrayal even allowed Him to destroy Himself so easily, and at this most critical moment, it caused Himself a very severe blow!

"--roar!!!!!"

The roar of the Devouring Dragon continued, but the roar was then completely drowned out by the surge of light that came from the surroundings.

No [Glorious] saint would miss this great opportunity.

Luo Xiu completed several holy arts in his prayers, and blasted towards the Devouring Dragon together with his magic sword and scepter which had accumulated nine levels of "Ancient Dragon's Remnant Soul" again. He also blasted towards the Devouring Dragon with three consecutive rounds of "Ancient Dragon's Evil Breath" and "Ancient Dragon's Devouring Slash"!
——BOOM! BOOM!!! BOOM!!!!!!

The surging light came from all directions, leaving horrifying scars on the body of the Devouring Dragon.

The wounds on his body became more and more dense, and the smell of blood became stronger.

While Luo Xiu was on high alert for Him, he also saw that the "four-winged angels" he summoned were still trying to uncover the true name of the "Devouring Dragon" Fafnir.

But they all seemed to have failed, including the newly joined "four-winged angel" Tatia and Archangel Azphiel, but they were unable to truly uncover His true name.

It was indeed the difference in rank that prevented the angels from truly "conquering" Him, and thus from destroying Him from the perspective of His true name.

Luo Xiu himself also tried it, but all he saw was a blur, as if it was forever hidden in the chaotic scarlet.

The "Saint" Franya, who was also contracted to the four-winged angel, should have learned of this situation from the Archangel Azphiel.

Then, Luo Xiu heard Fryanya shouting to the "Sword of the Holy" Monine -

"Teacher Monine!"

"It's time - since Azphiel can't 'break' Him, I ask you to 'seal' Him!"

"..."

"The Holy Sword" Monine, she did not respond.

She, with the solar flame burning like the sun, simply grasped the divine sword with both hands and raised it high again.

"I will give everything I have to this sword—"

"Give up my body, give up my heart."

She began to pray, and the flames and light bursting out around her became more and more intense as she prayed.

"I will burn to the purest degree, I will shine like glass."

"Let all that is mine become a furnace, let all that is mine become a blazing sun!"

“—May the wrath of God befall him!”

"..."

——Buzz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

An unprecedentedly exciting buzzing sound erupted in the air, and the sky seemed to overturn, tearing apart a divine rift that emitted a rich glow.

A pillar of light - a pillar of light that was even larger than the "Devouring Dragon", covered with sacred inscriptions and surrounded by hundreds of overturned sacred halos, slowly and unstoppably descended from the sky!

That was the only [Glorious] Level V authority that Monine possessed.

——【Pillar of Scourge】!
That is the authority that can seal the "Original Devil" completely and thoroughly!
