chapter-717

These two girls ordinarily got along extremely well, but they couldn’t help but have a dispute right now.

Long Haochen laughed and remarked, “Don’t argue. Let me make an analysis, this way you should both agree on who we should send.”

“The first and second stages of the competition were both for evaluating individual strength. And that’s just one’s pure strength, without accounting for any equipment. That was the pure strength evaluation of the Temples’ Great Gathering. The later stages are for evaluating strength as a whole. So equipment are allowed in the last two stages, which thus reflects the level of the Six Great Temples’ resources as well. The greatest contenders are still the Mage Temple and Knight Temple. In the third domain battle, we have only one goal, and that is to become the final champions.”

“Huh?” Because of Long Haochen’s declaration, everyone had queer feelings, because they were actually not so confident in their own strength. A domain stems from one’s strength, so even if they had a few divine tools at their disposal, what assurance could they have in front of the Six Great Temples’ countless years of accumulated ressources?

Long Haochen continued, “The final stage is a team-battle tournament. Although we are mostly pretty okay in terms of equipment, that is not the case for everyone. In particular, Wenzhao, Duan Yi, and Brother Zhang’s equipment are rather lacking. So we should rely on the synergies between all our vocations in the team battle, although I don’t have an absolute confidence in being able to achieve victory. But, the domain battle is the most richly rewarded one. We should not give up on this one. ”

“The Domain battle is a pure contest of domains, as well as a display of matching domains. The first requirement is that the confronting domains are not allowed to clash with each other, but should complement each other. Relatively speaking, my light attribute and Cai’er Domain of Purification are pretty synergistic. But Yuanyuan’s Blood Domain and Cai’er’s Domain of Purification conflict to some extent. Although Ying’er’s Beast God Domain cannot produce synergistic combinations with ours, at least it won’t conflict. Adding to that the Saint Spiritual Robe’s boost, she’s the most suitable to join us in battle.”

After Long Haochen’s explanation, Wang Yuanyuan was immediately disappointed, while Chen Ying’er smiled at her.

Han Yu said, “Boss, since tomorrow’s Domain Battle is so important, shouldn’t we train for it?”

Long Haochen shook his head, “There’s no need.

“Don’t worry, I am really confident. As for where this confidence stems from, let me keep the suspense for now. You will come to understand tomorrow.” Reaching this point, he revealed a mysterious smile.

It was not that he did not want to disclose it, but if this secret were to leak, some changes would surely appear in his comrades’ expressions. Although that method could not be called cheating, not letting it be known by too many was the best.

The next morning, when they proceeded for the Alliance’s Great Stadium, Lin Xin still had yet to be back.

Long Haochen did not send another to look for him. Although Lin Xin had an emotional disposition, he was still reliable. He believed that he would definitely be back for the team competition tomorrow.

After a few days of reparation, all the magic projectors in the Alliance’s Great Stadium were back to its best state.

The distance between the Alliance’s headquarters and the Alliance’s Great Stadium was close. Going through a passage in the warriors’ entrance, the powerhouses from the Six Great Temples and Bright Glimmer of Hope proceeded towards the stadium.

The area outside the walls had long since filled with people. At the sight of Long Haochen’s group, cheers immediately came from them.

“Bright Glimmer of Hope, Bright Glimmer of Hope!”

The masses were not in chaos: although their were many, their shouts were uniform, and the fanatical looks on their faces and their cheers were more enthusiastic than any competing powerhouses.

These days, the Knight Temple intentionally propagated the news of the accomplishments of the Demon Hunt Squad Bright Glimmer of Hope to the whole Holy City as well as every city and village in the Temple Alliance.

Their records of killing demon gods, their interventions in the Holy War, and more importantly, that they were the first Demon Hunt Squad to have destroyed demon god pillars. Two demon god pillars had already been destroyed, smashed in their hands.

Even the humans that were the least informed on demons knew that the seventy-two demon god pillars were their root. The dark era had already been ongoing for over six thousand years, all the while a demon god pillar had never gotten destroyed. What meant the news that Bright Glimmer of Hope had destroyed two of them? It meant hope!

Feeling the cheers of the masses, every member constituting Bright Glimmer of Hope were full of fervor. For the sake of the Alliance, for the sake of leading all humankind on the way out of darkness, they must fight courageously, and make themselves even more powerful.

After treading into the Alliance’s Great Stadium, Long Haochen nodded to the others before making his way alongside Cai’er and Chen Ying’er.

They arrived pretty early. Inside the field, the only ones present were those from the Spiritual Temple and Priest Temple. The other Temples had yet to arrive.

The Spiritual Temple and Priest Temple’s team leaders were Chen Hongyu and elder Ling. Long Haochen nodded to the two before greeting them.

Elder Ling returned a smile, and Chen Hongyu gave off a snort. He was visibly still unhappy about losing to Long Haochen.

Chen Hongyu remarked unhappily, “Grandpa, what are you snorting for Don’t tell me you cannot bear a loss at this age?”

Chen Hongyu glared at her, “Truly a girl of age. You girl, not making a contribution for our Spiritual Temple is one thing, but now you’re helping outsiders in beating your grandpa?”

Chen Ying’er gave off a smile, before running off to Chen Hongyu’s side and coquettishly grabbing his hand, as well as pulling his beard a bit occasionally. Due to this Chen Hongyu did not know whether to laugh or to cry, his face easing up, as he spoke a few sentences in Chen Ying’er’s ears.

Chen Ying’er remarked proudly, “I knew it, you have a sharp mouth but a soft heart. You have clearly good intentions, but won’t express them properly. I knew that grandpa treats me the best.”

Chen Hongyu severely said, “This is not being good to you, but thinking about our Spiritual Temple’s future. You girl, are the same as before. You’re already grown up, so remember your duties.”

“Yes.” Chen Ying’er stood straight and made her salutations. But when she turned off to run back to Long Haochen’s side, her laughing playful face betrayed her true thoughts. Anyway, from her childhood to now she had never really feared Chen Hongyu.

Chen Hongyu shook his head with a helpless feeling. No matter what, the decision that was already made could not be changed anymore. From the looks of it, this dear granddaughter of mine won’t ever gain the lead of Bright Glimmer of Hope.

A short time later, the competitors from the other Temples were there as well. The participating individuals were slightly different from yesterday, but the difference was not big, and the terrain did not change much either.

That long crystal pillar from yesterday was not there anymore, replaced by a huge crystal ball.

This crystal ball was five meters long in diameter. Placed in the middle of the field, it appeared colossal. On its pedestal seemed to be sculptures made of precious stones. The crystal ball itself was light blue, and emitted faint waves of spiritual energy from within.

Long Haochen was informed ahead of time by his grandfather that this crystal ball was called Saint Bead, a divine tool beyond divine tools. Made from a special crystal, it could bear a massive input of spiritual energy. After getting remodelled with magic formations, its insides became extremely stable, revealing its ability of elemental assimilation.

Simply said, this Saint Bead was a divine tool incarnating Elemental Obliterating Halo. It had an ability similar to Elemental Obliterating Halo released on its surface, and even the Demon God Emperor wouldn’t manage to breach through it. But its enormous tolerance to spiritual energy caused a rather weak physical resistance.

The Saint Bead had practical uses: with sufficient control, one could use it in battle for its power of swallowing forbidden spells. The heads of the Allliance were the ones in control of it throughout History, but, due to the internal strife between the Six Great Temples, although the Saint Bead had an important efficacy, because of its emblematic value, it was not permitted to bring it out in the Holy War. It could only serve as a final means of defense for Holy City.

Long Haochen’s mental force being overwhelming, when standing beside the Saint Bead, he silently sensed the changes in it. Very rapidly, his face now had a look of shock. That’s because he could not sense any emanation of spiritual energy from the bead. But when his senses made way, it would get swallowed by this Saint Bead. In other words, it could swallow not only spiritual energy, but even mental force as well.

When Long Haochen’s rich and powerful mental force made way inside, with the feeling of entering a vast see.都有种进入浩瀚无垠大海般的感觉。

When used appropriately, this Saint Bead was bound to be exceptionally effective against unexpecting enemies. For instance when Long Haochen was caught by the Demon God of Deep Vision’s Deep Vision Godly Pool, this Saint Bead could have cancelled it, and even inflicted serious damage to the Demon God of Deep Vision.

While Long Haochen was in the midst of pondering over the Saint Bead, the chief referee Chen Zidian made his way. Glancing at the twenty-one people around the Saint Bead, he nodded, “Are you all ready?”

Long Haochen came back to his senses, and replied alongside the others, “Ready.”

Chen Zidian declared, “Then start.” His right hand giving a pat to the Saint Bead, a soft light essence was poured within, instantly turning it into a light gold color, slowly arising from its base.

Long Haochen then realized that that piedestal was actually not for amplifying the Saint Bead, but for limiting it. When the Saint Bead ascended, a terrifying engulfing force rose from within it.

Long Haochen finally understood right now why the Saint Bead was used in the domain battle. That’s because if one was to not utilize a domain, the spiritual energy into one’s body would get swallowed by this Saint Bead.

This was the first time he encountered such a situation. From the looks, the Saint Bead was really even more terrifying than any other divine tool he had ever encountered before.
