Chapter 846: Chapter 26 Tilu Temple_3
Everything went dark, and all the light vanished, leaving Xuan Yue and Ah Dai stunned. Suddenly, light returned, and all sensations flooded back into their bodies, the pulling force from Prophet Pu Lin had disappeared. Ah Dai and Xuan Yue found themselves in a corridor, standing on a huge golden hexagram embedded with numerous complex symbols that were indecipherable even to Ah Dai, let alone Xuan Yue, who came from the Holy Church. Lining the walls of the corridor were fist-sized flaming red gemstones that emitted a faint glow, allowing Ah Dai and Xuan Yue to barely see anything beyond ten meters. Xuan Yue knew these red gemstones as Fire Cloud Stones. Although not very precious, the appearance of such large Fire Cloud Stones was still astonishing. Moreover, to make Fire Cloud Stones illuminate, Magic Power was necessary, which suggested that the Tilu Temple harbored many secrets.
Prophet Pu Lin seemed unconcerned, as if nothing had happened, standing silent. Xuan Yue, feeling a rush of urgency, subconsciously used the most basic Illumination Spell from the light series. However, she was shocked to discover that there seemed to be no Magic Elements in the air around her. No matter how she chanted the Spell, no magical fluctuations occurred.
"Child, stop trying. Here, no one except me can use Magic. This place is, you could say, my realm." Having said this, he waved his Wooden Staff again, and suddenly, a force of Wind Elements appeared, gently lifting the three of them and slowly drifting deeper into the corridor. Every hundred meters or so, a red Fire Cloud Stone would appear on the walls, providing a trace of light. Xuan Yue knew that Prophet Pu Lin’s Magic Level had reached a very profound realm. The Magic he used earlier was probably the legendary Magic Teleportation Array, a type of Magic even her father couldn’t perform! Now, the Wind Series Magic he was using, although not very advanced, was still remarkably easy for him to wield in a place devoid of any Magic Elements, adding to her amazement. Although Ah Dai was surprised by all that had happened, he hadn’t spoken a word, feeling an inexplicable trust in Pu Lin that kept him from any fear.
After an unknown duration, the Wind Elements disappeared, and the three landed on the ground in front of two large stone doors, flanked by a Tilu warrior on each side. Unlike the warriors outside, these two were not only taller but also their armor emitted a faint golden glow. As the three landed, the warriors crossed their Long-handled Battle Axes, blocking their path. A powerful and forbidding aura emitted from the two Tilu warriors, instantly enveloping the trio and putting immense pressure on Ah Dai and Xuan Yue, leaving them nearly breathless and without the slightest thought of resistance, for the two warriors were immensely powerful, the surging pressure rendering Xuan Yue and Ah Dai completely immobile.
Priest Pu Lin seemed oblivious to Ah Dai and Xuan Yue’s condition, standing motionless. The might of the Tilu warriors seemed to have no effect on him either.
The enormous pressure was gradually becoming unbearable for Ah Dai and Xuan Yue. Seeing Xuan Yue in pain, Ah Dai was greatly stirred and roared lowly, pushing his True Qi to the limit, a faint white glow emanating from his body, shielding both himself and Xuan Yue.
Xuan Yue felt suddenly lighter and was able to move. She turned to look at Ah Dai, who was now kneeling on the ground, big beads of sweat continuously rolling down his forehead. The white glow in front of them trembled continuously, and she understood that Ah Dai was taking all the pressure upon himself. Her heart was deeply moved by the realization that he was doing this all for her. Gratitude filled her heart, and without hesitation, she pulled out the Phoenix’s Blood.
Feeling the danger too, the Phoenix’s Blood emitted an unusual red glow, merging with Ah Dai’s White Battle Aura, resisting the immense pressure.
Ah Dai, who had reached his limit, had blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, but the timely intervention of the Phoenix’s Blood helped alleviate some of the pressure, giving him considerable relief. In the face of danger, Ah Dai subconsciously reached for the Sword of Hades on his chest. A cold and Evil Aura burst forth, a faint gray light appearing from his chest. Under the influence of the white, gray, and red glows, the pressure on Ah Dai and Xuan Yue was completely blocked three feet in front of them.
The two Tilu warriors seemed to sense the change in them, raising their Long-handled Battle Axes in a stance ready to strike.
Both Xuan Yue and Ah Dai were greatly alarmed. The mere pressure had already been hard to handle, and the thought of these two immensely powerful warriors attacking was unimaginable. Xuan Yue’s mouth parted slightly, preparing to chant the strongest Spell of the Phoenix’s Blood, while Ah Dai also readied himself to use the Sword of Hades. Ah Dai was keenly aware that although the Evil Power of the Sword was strong, it wouldn’t harm Xuan Yue protected by the Phoenix’s Blood. As for the unfathomable Prophet Pu Lin, he was not Ah Dai’s concern; his challenge lay in dealing with the two incredibly powerful warriors.
