Chapter 271 Ether and Angelic Transformation
The mental structure within the spell that Isabella unleashed completely collapsed as it flew towards them.

The pure elements were caught up in the elemental turbulence of the World-Devouring Whale.

Everything was stirred up by this sword.

Whether it's magic, the surrounding matter, or everything that's inherently inert.

It doesn't matter.

Just like this floating whale that carries everything, even if the floating whale is peaceful, its existence is a crushing force against all other existences.

Nemes's move, the World-Devouring Whale, is also like that.

This move requires extremely high numerical values.

Furthermore, one must possess complete numerical values ​​and have entered a special state of inspiration in order to grasp that feeling of devouring everything and thus activate all elements.

Naims felt as if he were standing in the eye of a storm.

Everything around was being shattered, becoming part of the storm.

Zawa, who was hiding in the spatial crevice, could feel the spatial compression becoming increasingly terrifying.

He had previously jumped through space using only his sword blade to stabilize the spatial state before jumping again.

At this point, he simply couldn't stay any longer.

The next moment, he appeared outside.

A terrifying storm swept over his body, and in an instant, he felt the sword in his hand being swallowed up by the storm and turned into dust.

And he himself is being rapidly decomposed.

His clothes, his skin, his flesh...

However, it was at this moment that the Holy Son suddenly appeared on the path of the Saint.

His properties are exceptionally strong, shielding him from the effects of the storm.

The sword pierced Zovin's body slightly, and then the Holy Son embraced Zovin's bloodied body, once again activating the Path of the Saint, and rushed out of the storm.

However, the storm behind them was also rapidly expanding.

Isabella had no choice but to retreat quickly, faced with this terrible storm.

Only Rhine, with the air angels flying beside him, reduced the raging storm to a whirlwind.

His priest's robes fluttered in the wind, but his eyes remained remarkably calm, for he knew he would win!

The Holy Will requires him to take the lead, and there cannot be too many powerful forces in the outside world. In other words, the Golden Seeds cannot directly participate in the Holy Will.

This is why neither Gilliman, Gotthard, nor any of the other golden seedlings came.

In addition, there is the need to deal with an entity that is an enemy of God or something that is detrimental to God.

It's usually a powerful demon or something similar.

As the sacred wish is initiated and the most crucial moment arrives, this being will appear.

He didn't know who the enemy of the Holy Wish was at first, but the final causal spread in the Aro Realm made him directly confirm Nemus.

His gaze flickered slightly, and with a flick of his hand, one ball of light shot out and jumped into another.

The sphere of light seemed to be scanning something, and then it seemed to lock onto something.

And so, after the two orbs of light merged, a new life was born.

This new life has no color on its body, yet it seems as if its entire body is full of color.

It resembles a mosaic of countless snowflakes, yet it also seems to exist as a unified whole.

Like a gentle angel, he also has two pairs of wings.

However, its main body is not an eyeball, but a strange fetus with a halo above its head.

(From The Binding of Isaac - Dogma)
His appearance immediately caused changes in the surrounding matter, and the originally raging storm seemed to subside quickly.

“An etheric angel!” Nemus recognized the source of this life form immediately. The general layout of this world consists of the etheric plane outside the material plane and the astral plane as the intermediate plane.

Special spaces like the divine realm and the abyss are mostly located near the astral plane, while the four elemental planes of earth, wind, water, and fire surround the etheric layer.

The etheric layer itself has a central meaning.

It is the largest dimensional portal, and also the place in alchemy where one prays to stay forever.

Some alchemists even believe that the etheric layer is the origin of the world.

The world began to differentiate from this point onward, first by earth, wind, water, and fire, followed by the celestial realm and various material planes.

If all matter could be unified and returned to ether, then everything could return to its origin.

By mastering the secrets of ether, one can master the cauldron of omnipotence and forge the Philosopher's Stone.

However, throughout history, many people have visited the etheric layer and seen etheric matter, but none have ever stayed in the etheric layer for long.

Once outside the etheric layer, the etheric substance rapidly differentiates.

Furthermore, due to the characteristics of the etheric channel, those who enter will be quickly transported to other material planes, elemental planes, or astral planes along the flow of the etheric layer.

Nemus squinted at the ethereal angel.

This thing is the nemesis of matter; it can break down all matter, and naturally it can also suppress all matter.

The air angel, which had been flying proudly beside Rhine, wilted the moment the etheric angel appeared.

Its two pairs of wings were folded back, and its eyes stopped glaring around. It followed the etheric angel obediently.

It's no wonder that alchemists believed that ether was the primary of the so-called five fundamental elements.

The world-destroying storm unleashed by the World-Devouring Whale was quickly downgraded before the Etheric Angels, transforming from a storm capable of destroying everything into a gentle breeze.

Upon seeing this, Isabella quickly approached and then instantly cast a divine spell, the white light merging into Zovin's body to heal him.

Nems couldn't help but marvel at how powerful Rhine truly was, beyond reason.

The reason he is so strong is the result of three generations of combined personal effort and miracles.

And what about Rhine?

He was merely a holy son who failed to truly succeed; yet, having mastered the divine art of shaping sacred life, he was no ordinary steel being.

He took this divine art to its extreme.

It can be said that Rhine himself had already grasped the code of life.

Surrounded by two angels, Rhine stood still and neutralized Nemus's attack.

However, while they are capable of protecting themselves, defeating the current Nems is still a long way off.

Although the etheric angel is powerful, the nature of ether dictates that its existence will not be long.

So the next moment, a ball of light beside Rhine began to evolve once again.

This time, however, no life was born within the ball of light. Instead, it quickly approached Rhine and attached itself to her body.

Then Rhine began to radiate light from the inside out.

A pair of wings behind it spread slightly, followed by a second pair.

Forbidden Divine Art: Sacred Life Shaping - Modified - Angelization!

Most priests fear melee combat, but true geniuses are not.

Because once they reach a certain level, they will inevitably be able to compensate for their weaknesses in close combat through magic.

A longsword engulfed in flames appeared in Rhine's hand.

At this moment, Rhine truly has the feel of an angel descending to earth!
