Versatile Mage: One innate talent for each system

Chapter 240 Archangel Sariel
"It seems you know my identity. But I'm curious, how did you find out? Even the Holy City couldn't possibly know I'm here. You have many secrets, heretic Jiang Yuan!"

Sariel's aura changed, completely different from his previous easygoing demeanor. Now he was like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath, pointing directly at Jiang Yuan!
"So you're going to make a move already? I thought you angels were very composed. I underestimated you." Jiang Yuan laughed, completely unconcerned about Sariel's overwhelming aura.

“I have no patience for heresy!” Sariel’s white wings slowly unfurled from his back.

"So you're going to be patient with Manchester United?"

"Everything that happens in the world, as long as it doesn't exceed the proper boundaries, has nothing to do with angels. Before becoming emperor, everything the Crimson Demon did was simply part of the trajectory that the world should follow," Sariel said.

“It’s so hypocritical.”

Jiang Yuan sighed, deciding not to waste any more words with Sariye.

He appeared behind Sariel in an instant, his pure white wings radiating a holy light in the daytime sunlight.

Angel wings, which symbolize angels, are considered powerful the more numerous they are.

Each angel is a forbidden spell-level mage, possessing even greater angelic power and the ability to control the very source of magic.

Angelic power can be used outside the Holy City, but the power to control the origin of magic can only be used within the Holy City.

At this time, Sariel was merely a slightly more powerful forbidden spellcaster with angelic power.

Jiang Yuan could be easily wiped out.

"Your angelic wings are radiant and holy, but your actions are dark and filthy. Things that are not meant to be together should not be together."

As Jiang Yuan finished speaking, Sariel felt a terrifying force erupt behind him, and he grabbed his angel wings.

"What are you trying to do?!" Sariel realized what was happening and his expression changed drastically.

His entire body erupted with power, his pupils turned golden, and the space of the sacrificial mountain seemed to be affected, peeling away from the dimension.

However, before he could make his next move, intense pain swept through his entire body.

"what!!!!!"

The angel wings were torn directly from Sariel's back.

Jiang Yuan didn't stop. In the blink of an eye, he forcibly tore off the other half of the angel wings, casually tossed it aside, and nodded seriously.

"It looks much better without the angel wings. It should have been like this a long time ago."

Sariel staggered forward a few steps, then suddenly turned around, his golden eyes fixed on Jiang Yuan like a demon, and said in a hoarse voice, "I want you dead!"

The spatial dimension was completely stripped away, as if it had become a time-space monster, raising its world-destroying claws.

It was several times larger than the one used for the sacrificial ceremony, and it just fell down like that.

All the trees, flowers, rocks, and soil had already begun to crack before they even came into contact with the dimensional beast's claw.

One can imagine just how powerful the impact was when it fell!
Jiang Yuan remained expressionless in the face of such an attack.

With just a flick of his right index finger, a large spatial storm was created in front of him.

The beast's claws came into contact with the storm.

In an instant, the beast's claws were pulverized, and the body of the time-space beast vanished without a trace.

All the clouds in the sky disappeared as a result.

A vast expanse of blue!
Countless passersby who witnessed this scene stopped and looked in the direction of the sacrificial ceremony.

The monks also noticed the unusual activity at the mountain sacrifice and rushed over.

"That's the mountain worship site, the place where the memorial tablets of fallen heroes are kept! Who's vandalizing it there!"

"Hurry over there! A mage is using magic illegally!"

"This kind of mage must be severely punished, he's despicable!" A group of mages rushed over in a hurry, but before they even reached the foot of the sacrificial mountain, the powerful energy knocked many of them unconscious.

The rest of the people had their hearts pounding so hard they could barely move!

At this time, on the sacrificial mountain.

At the moment the spacetime beast shattered, Sariel's hand shone with rays of light, extending thousands of meters high and transforming into a demon-slaying holy sword forged from light, which he then slashed toward Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan casually waved his hand again, blocking the Demon-Slaying Holy Sword that pierced through thousands of meters of sky.

With a flick of the finger, it shatters into countless light particles and dissipates.

“Your power is still too weak, Sariel,” Jiang Yuan said calmly.

His right hand made a grasping motion in the air, and Sariel was thus restrained, unable to break free no matter how much he resisted.

"How can your physical strength be so great?!" Sariel asked incredulously.

The human body is comparable to that of an emperor!
Angels are physically stronger than mages because they receive the power of angels and the blessing of the Heavenly Father.

How can an ordinary human being have a physical body stronger than an angel?!
“Indeed, you are the greatest heretic in the world!” Sariel shouted.

“If you think being powerful is heresy, then I have nothing to say,” Jiang Yuan said.

"Damn it!"

Sariel's golden eyes widened, her teeth clenched.

He knew very well that it would be difficult for him to defeat Jiang Yuan with his own strength, and he couldn't even restrain him.

Holy City believed that Jiang Yuan was merely a powerful super-level mage, still within their control.

It now appears that Jiang Yuan has not only reached the level of a forbidden spell mage, but his physical body is also as powerful as that of an emperor.

Even he couldn't see how much power that body contained!

Unbeknownst to everyone, Jiang Yuan broke through the shackles set up by the Holy City and became an existence that even the archangels could not restrain!

"You cannot kill me. The death of an archangel will bring you endless trouble. Even if your power is immense, you are still a human being, and you will surely have people you care about. The Holy City will use this to push you step by step into the abyss!"

Sariel was indeed an angel, but he was still afraid of death. In order to avoid being killed by Jiang Yuan, he could only use this method to survive.

“What you said makes some sense,” Jiang Yuan nodded.

“That’s right, I can sign a contract with you. Just like many unspoken pacts in the Holy City, we will live separate lives from now on. I can also erase your heretical status,” Sariel continued.

He would make any promise in order to survive.

"hehe."

Jiang Yuan smiled and approached Sariye.

Sariel suddenly realized that the power controlling him had disappeared, and a look of joy appeared on his face.

"Don't worry, I will definitely make your heretical status disappear. As for the evil power in this mountain, you can use it as you please." Sariel finished speaking and was about to leave.

An invisible wall blocked his way.

“I didn’t tell you to leave, what’s the rush?” Jiang Yuan said.

"What else do you want to do?" Sariel's heart tightened.

"I still have to die, otherwise I can't stand seeing a cancerous angel like you continue to exist in this world."

As Jiang Yuan spoke, a spatial rift appeared beneath Sariel's feet.

Endless death surges forth from it; that is the underworld!
