God's Seal: A weak priest, but with explosive strength

Chapter 55 Bai Haochen: I choose the Dual Cultivation Knight!

"The Glorious Age lasted for seven thousand years, and it was also the last happy life for our race before entering the Dark Ages."

"Six thousand years ago, the glorious era was destroyed by the arrival of the demons."

"The sun and the moon appeared at the same time, and nine stars were aligned. A space-time rift that seemed to cut the sky in half appeared in the eastern sky of the continent. Seventy-two demon pillars fell from the sky, bringing with them a terrifying demonic aura. In the hundred days before the seventy-two demon pillars descended, we humans did not take precautions. Instead, battles broke out in various countries, so we missed the best opportunity to deal with the demons."

Bai Nianxuan's voice was filled with sadness. "Within a hundred days, all creatures, whether wild beasts, demon beasts, or our human race, will immediately undergo a huge mutation once they are contaminated by the aura of the seventy-two demon pillars. They will become creatures of the demon race and obey the command of the demon god where the demon pillar is located. When our human race was constantly weakening its own strength due to the civil war, the demon race already had millions of troops. This battle finally started, and the glorious era of mankind was completely over. It became part of the war and entered the dark age."

"In the first three thousand years of the Dark Ages, all human nations were destroyed. It was not until the last three thousand years that the powerful humans organized themselves into six holy temples and managed to stabilize the situation and stop the demons from advancing. Despite the efforts of our predecessors, the Holy Temple Alliance occupied less than a quarter of the area on the continent."

"The wealth and power accumulated during the glorious era were ultimately not enough for the human race to fight against the demons. In addition, during the glorious era 10,000 years ago, the human race lost most of its heritage due to the civil war, which made our predecessors powerless in the subsequent battles."

"This battle originated from the conflict between humans and the undead. More precisely, it was the conflict between the undead magicians and the Glorious Church. The predecessor of the Temple Alliance was the Glorious Church that had fallen thousands of years ago."

Listening to Bai Nianxuan's passionate words, Bai Haochen's eyes flashed with complex light.

He didn't know how to face his own bloodline.

Is he going to help the human race or the demon race?
His grandfather is a demon, but his grandmother is a human, and his mother is a human-demon hybrid, so he is not a pure human.

Seeing Bai Haochen's blank look, Bai Nianxuan said softly: "I tell you this because I want you to remember history. If there hadn't been a civil war ten thousand years ago, the human race might not have been unable to defeat the demon race, but the human race's greed and selfishness are so heavy that when there is no external enemy, we ourselves are the biggest enemy."

This is an unavoidable historical tragedy and one that they must take seriously.

Bai Haochen asked quietly, "Then they are not smart at all."

"We have already seized control of the Holy Demon Continent from the giant dragon, so why are we still killing each other, allowing the demons to take advantage of the situation and move in?"

Bai Haochen understood a lot of things from Bai Nianxuan's words.

The human race is actually not weak, but most of their strengths were destroyed in internal strife.

In other words, their current dark age was caused by the infighting among their ancestors.

As long as they do not fight among themselves and pass on those powerful forces, the human race can definitely resist the invasion of the demons.

But there is no "if" in the world. The human race was destroyed by its own greed.

"You are still young and don't understand human greed. Whether it's you or me, or anyone else, there is greed in our hearts. This thought will drive us to rise continuously, and it will also generate other thoughts. When they were fighting among themselves, they only thought about their own interests, and didn't think about the future of the Holy Demon Continent a thousand or even ten thousand years later."

Bai Nianxuan thought Bai Haochen was very simple.

This is a child who is like a blank sheet of paper.

Everyone has selfish motives.

"Ok."

Bai Haochen nodded. He couldn’t digest all this for a while.

"When you reach the second stage, you can undergo the Holy Awakening. Then you can choose to become a Punishment Knight or a Guardian Knight."

Bai Nianxuan still planned to use some sweet dates to keep Bai Haochen from practicing hard.

"Is there any difference between these two knights?"

Bai Haochen asked curiously.

"It's a question of strength ratio. A Punishment Knight is a knight that focuses on attack power. With a two-handed weapon, a mount, and attack skills, their single combat power is extremely strong. On the front battlefield, their strength is greater than that of warriors and assassins of the same level."

"The Guardian Knight is mainly defensive, holding a weapon in one hand and a shield in the other. He is the core of the team and is good at various auxiliary and healing techniques. His individual combat power is weaker than that of the Punishment Knight, but in team combat, the role of the Guardian Knight is greater than that of the Punishment Knight."

After hearing Bai Nianxuan's explanation, Bai Haochen stared at her blankly. Obviously, Bai Haochen was thinking about whether to choose the Punishment Knight or the Guardian Knight in the future.

"Aunt, do I have to make a choice now?"

Hearing this, Bai Nianxuan smiled at him gently, "No, you have plenty of time to make a choice."

Bai Haochen paused and said, "Can't we practice both?"

"I want to become a dual-cultivation knight who cultivates both the Punishment Knight and the Guardian Knight."

There was a bright light in Bai Haochen's eyes.

Neither the Guardian Knight nor the Punishment Knight could satisfy his ideas.

He wants to do his best.

"Haha, I didn't realize you're so greedy."

"Of course, your idea is acceptable."

Bai Nianxuan stood up and said in a deep voice: "Because I am a dual-cultivation priest. Before me, priests in the Priest Temple were mainly healers and gave up their attack abilities. Due to physical reasons, I cannot learn any healing techniques before the seventh level, so I can only follow the path of a discipline priest. After the seventh level, I will also actively learn healing techniques so as to live up to the reputation of the Priest Temple."

To some extent, Bai Nianxuan is a dual-cultivation priest, so she thinks it is not impossible to be a dual-cultivation knight.

In this way, Bai Haochen has no shortcomings. He perfectly combines the advantages of the two knights and thus has no shortcomings.

"Oh okay."

Bai Haochen showed a look of sudden enlightenment.

He hadn't thought that this kind of operation was possible.

"If we want to practice dual cultivation, don't we need to find a Guardian Knight and a Punishment Knight to teach Haochen?"

Bai Lingxuan frowned slightly, and then she remembered that Long Xingyu was the strongest punishment knight in the Knights Templar.

There are three Divine Knights in the Knights Templar, two of them are Guardian Knights, and the only one is Long Xingyu, the Punishment Knight.

So, if Bai Haochen was a dual-cultivation knight, would they still have to look for Long Xingyu?

No, absolutely not.

Bai Lingxuan would never allow her daughter Bai Yue to have anything to do with Long Xingyu again.

"Yes."

"But he is not the only Punishment Knight in the Knights Templar."

Bai Nianxuan said lightly.

She understood what Bai Lingxuan meant.

Bai Lingxuan was afraid that Bai Haochen and Long Xingyu would be involved again.

The right thing to do is to stay away from Long Xingyu, a man with a hole in his brain.

"That makes sense. I'd like to trouble you, Nianxuan, to pay more attention to Haochen's studies."

Only then did Bai Lingxuan feel relieved.
