Chapter 1528: Chapter 170: 9 Divine Thunders of the Sky God_3
When the rainbow-colored cloud appeared in the sky, the Pope’s face changed dramatically. Earlier, when Xuan Ye and the others used the Reincarnation Light, he was already very surprised. But now, the appearance of the rainbow cloud shocked his mind and body even more, causing him to exclaim, "Not good, this is the Nine Heavens God Thunder. All clergy listen up, immediately form the Barrier of Light to enclose the Light Altar in a cylindrical shape."
At the periphery of the Divine Mountain of the church, when the believers saw the "rainbow auspicious cloud" in the sky, they couldn’t help but cheer, thinking it was an auspicious sign sent by the Sky God. But little did they know, if this energy truly burst forth without any barrier, they would indeed be ascending to Heaven.
"The Nine Heavens God Thunder, a celestial thunder from Heaven, possesses unparalleled power that only beings above the level of a primary god among the Sky Gods can wield. The divine power contained within the Nine Heavens God Thunder is the purest yang force in the world, unmatched by human strength." This sentence is documented in the church’s most precious divine scriptures. The divine scriptures can be considered the only records of the Sky God that the church has access to. Only successive Popes have the privilege to read them. The Pope never expected that Ah Dai would be able to summon this powerful Nine Heavens God Thunder with his human strength. He knew that if the defense was inadequate, the entire Divine Mountain of the church might be obliterated by the Nine Heavens God Thunder, so he hurriedly started chanting his most powerful defense magic.
Under the Pope’s leadership, thousands of high priests used the fourth-level magic, the Light Barrier, simultaneously. This magic itself does not have very strong defensive power, but under the direction of the Pope and with thousands of high-level priests using it simultaneously, its power was incomparable. Large areas of golden light halos rose into the air, drifting towards the Temple of Light. The Pope made a slashing motion in the air, and a golden crack appeared in front of him. He muttered a few spells, and a golden light floated out from the crack. It was the ultimate treasure of the church, the Magic Wand of successive Popes—the Divine Wand. The Divine Wand is about two meters long, as thick as a dove’s egg, with a pair of golden wings at its head, and in the center of the wings is a large golden gemstone, with a diameter of ten centimeters. At first glance, the Divine Wand looks like an enlarged version of Xuan Yue’s Angel Wand, but the divine power it contains is far beyond what the Angel Wand could compare. It is the only special-grade divine artifact of the light attribute on the entire continent. Although it cannot compare in grade to Ah Dai’s Sword of Hades, it’s not far off. The key difference is that because the Pope has undergone divine baptism, he can fully control this divine artifact, which Ah Dai cannot compare to. Only the true Hades of the Demon Realm can fully control the Sword of Hades. The appearance of the Divine Wand made the Pope’s chanting sound much more relaxed. A gigantic six-winged golden angel appeared amidst the light emitted continuously by the Divine Wand. Under the Pope’s control, the angel kept absorbing the Light Barriers used by thousands of priests. In a short while, its body seemed to become almost substantial. That exceptionally vast sacred aura made everyone feel a sense of reverence. This was the Pope’s strongest defense magic—the Wall of the Six-Winged Angel. The Pope’s abilities alone were insufficient to cast this ultimate defensive forbidden curse, but the amplification from the Divine Wand allowed him to do so. With the support of thousands of priests, the Wall of the Six-Winged Angel was unprecedentedly powerful, and the golden angel instantly expanded to several dozen meters tall.
At this moment, the light of Reincarnation used by Xuan Ye and the others was finally fully prepared. The top of the Wrath of the Gods let out a sharp long howl, and a pale blue light with a diameter of about five centimeters shot toward Ah Dai in the sky like lightning. Although that pale blue light seemed small, no one present doubted the destructive power it contained, as it was released with the combined efforts of three Red Robe Priests.
In midair, Ah Dai suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes shone deeply like black gemstones, with no trace of emotion in the light. A tall and indistinct figure appeared behind him. It was a black figure, seemingly holding a long weapon, but due to the blurriness, no one could discern what it truly was.
The six-winged angel summoned by the Pope trembled slightly upon seeing the black figure behind Ah Dai, as if petrified with fear. Ah Dai’s voice suddenly became extremely low, "Summon the power of Nine Heavens God Thunder and break through all obstacles." His right hand suddenly swung down, and the black figure behind him mirrored his actions. The rainbow-colored halo in the sky brightened, and a multicolored lightning bolt suddenly struck down. Perhaps due to the culmination of extremes, no thunder sound accompanied it, and everything in the sky became eerily silent. The seven-colored light seemed to engulf everything in its path, including sound. The six-winged golden angel trembled violently, transforming into a golden pillar of light under the Pope’s strained control, completely enveloping Ah Dai in the sky and the Light Altar on the ground.
The pale blue light of Reincarnation clashed with the multicolored lightning of the Nine Heavens God Thunder in midair. To everyone’s surprise, the Reincarnation Light released by the three Red Robe Priests erupted into a strong blue glow when it met the multicolored lightning. The pillar of light formed by the six-winged golden angel trembled violently, but the vibration lasted only a short while. The pale blue light disappeared, yet the multicolored lightning remained as powerful as ever. Ah Dai’s attack, initiated with his own strength, easily neutralized the combined Reincarnation Light used by the three Red Robe Priests, astonishingly leaving all those who feared for him speechless. The multicolored lightning continued to descend, albeit at a slower pace, but it was evident to everyone that once the immense energy landed on the Light Altar, none of the three—Xuan Ye and the others—would survive. Even the Pope couldn’t prevent this tragedy; his entire strength was focused on containing the energy burst, making it impossible for him to spare any energy to save Xuan Ye and the others. Even if he could, he probably couldn’t rival the divine thunder drawn from Heaven by Ah Dai.
