Chapter 1189: Chapter 97: Transformation of the Divine Artifact_3
Back in the inn, Xuan Yue closed the door and finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed like everyone in Mimu City knew about the "miracle", and on their way back, they saw many commoners running towards the direction they had left from. Xuan Yue gasped, "That was close! Big Brother, just now those commoners’ eyes lit up when they saw my ritual robe, quick, give me some commoner clothes. I don’t want us to be surrounded when we leave tomorrow."
Having successfully broken through the bottleneck of the Divine Technique, Ah Dai felt immensely relieved and smiled, "Although it caused a sensation, we also successfully healed Wo Xin’s mother. That’s good news! Brother, what exactly happened just now? Do you know why there was such a massive energy release? I haven’t even reached the Death Mountain Range, and my Divine Technique has already broken through the final bottleneck."
Xuan Yue was overjoyed, "You’ve broken through? That’s great, my Holy Magic has also improved significantly, almost to the level of a magic sorcerer. It’s really a miraculous coincidence! It must be that the Sky God sensed the goodness in our hearts and blessed us. Big Brother, did you notice? Your Dragon’s Blood and my Phoenix’s Blood have both undergone some changes. The massive energy just now must have been due to them. Ah! Not good, we have to leave here quickly. Wo Xin knows we are here, and if he leads those frenzied commoners here, we’ll be in trouble."
Ah Dai was startled and exclaimed, "Yes! How did I not think of that? With the Dragon’s Blood as a conduit, open the gates of space and time." As he chanted the spell, Ah Dai felt the Dragon’s Blood merge seamlessly with him, a massive sacred aura energy emanating from his body as a blue light flashed, and two sets of commoner clothes appeared floating in front of him.
Ah Dai and Xuan Yue looked at each other; the sacred aura and the massive energy just now were strikingly different from what the Dragon’s Blood could emit before. Just summoning basic items had produced such powerful energy, which made their hearts tremble. Controlling his excitement, Ah Dai urged Xuan Yue, "Brother, you go change first. I need to change into something plainer too, so as not to attract attention. Let’s explore the changes to the Divine Artifacts after we leave here." Saying this, he threw a set of the hovering commoner clothes to Xuan Yue.
In a short while, Xuan Yue came out of the washroom. Ah Dai was much taller, and the large clothes looked comically large on him, with the legs and cuffs rolled up several times; the wide clothes swaying, obviously not his own. Ah Dai laughed, "Brother, you’re really thin!"
Xuan Yue’s face blushed and she said, "Let’s go quickly." After settling the bill, the two hurriedly left the inn. Xuan Yue’s judgment was correct; soon after they left, Wo Xin, accompanied by people from the Sacrifice Hall and those loyal believers, arrived. Ah Dai and Xuan Yue had saved both him and his mother. His gratitude was beyond words. Moreover, the priests from the Sacrifice Hall had promised that they would take full responsibility for their future lives. He would not have to resort to thievery anymore.
The innkeeper opened the door anxiously, letting Wo Xin and the priests into the room where Ah Dai and Xuan Yue had stayed. Thousands of believers had already gathered outside this unassuming inn, encircling it; who wouldn’t want to meet the possessor of that immense divine power? The devout worship of the Sky God among these people had reached its zenith. When Wo Xin entered the empty room, a strong sense of loss filled him.
The innkeeper helplessly said, "I already told you, they hurried back and settled their bill before leaving, but you wouldn’t believe me. Bishop, who exactly is it that’s such an important figure, worth mobilizing so many people for?" Samuel sighed, "It’s a young bishop from the church. I’ve never seen such powerful divine power. It seems the Bishop doesn’t want us to bother him. Let’s not disturb him. I’ve spent decades laboring over Holy Light Magic, but compared to the Bishop, it’s merely like a glowworm to bright light." That splendid Divine Healing Technique had deeply shocked him.
A gleam appeared in Wo Xin’s eyes as he suddenly noticed something. He walked forward a few steps and picked up a piece of paper from the bedside table. The priests crowded around, and on the paper was written, "Dear Wo Xin, if you come back here, it proves our judgment was correct. You don’t need to thank us; we’re very happy we could heal your mother. We believe anyone capable would want to help seeing your circumstances. You are a dutiful good boy, take good care of your mother. We’re leaving, don’t come looking for us again. Although stealing is a compelled act, it’s still not a good thing, so try not to do it anymore. We’ll keep your Finger Blade as a memento. If fate allows, we might meet again." Signed by two people who wished to remain unnamed.
Wo Xin’s eyes moistened; his whole body shook violently as he suddenly turned and knelt in front of Samuel, resolutely saying, "Elder, please take me as your disciple. I wish to join the church and become a cleric who spreads the faith of the divine."
