Chapter 919
The cry of the dead caused the sky and earth to wail .
The gaze of the dead shook the hearts of the living .
Without any defensive measures, Burwell was dragged into [Fear Illusion] by [Dead-man's Gaze], his body started to wobble under Kieran's Strong I rank mental impact .
The interrogator God protected his believer from an exploding head before Kieran's mental impact but the sword that Burwell threw out was forced to a pause because Kieran didn't only just activated [Dead-man's Gaze] but also [Sword Skill, Myriad Viper]!
Sssssss!
Tens of thousands of snake hissed .
The horned venomous vipers were hissing at the moon .
Burwell's body froze when he was forced to go through another Spirit authentication .
The sharp glare of the sword tip stopped in front of Kieran's neck and didn't move anymore, Kieran's kick successfully landed on Burwell's abdomen .
Bang!
A heavy and loud bang later, Burwell didn't fly away, instead, an unknown, powerful defensive force field barrier protected the archpriest .
It didn't surprise Kieran though, in fact, if there wasn't a force field of sorts, he would be surprised .
The second kick arrived like a shadow, landing on the same spot .
After the second kick, the powerful defensive field was shattered .
Pak!
Amidst the shattering noise that sounded like broken glass, Kieran dished out kick after kick .
Each kick was faster than before .
Each kick was heavier than before .
Every single one of them landed on Burwell's body .
Afterimage after afterimage, kicking shadows were overlapping each other as they enveloped Burwell's body .
Crack!
Bone cracking noises were ceaseless but Kieran didn't plan on stopping .
When all the afterimages of his kicks were retracted, a sharp qi energy wave was blasted out .
The half-moon qi energy wave was like a scythe sweeping past Burwell's body .
Puk!
Burwell's head flew up high, a golden glow appeared on his body .
Kieran picked up his spoils of war and left in a hurry, he didn't even glance at the archpriests and officiants in the shadows .
After Kieran had left for quite a while, the archpriests only came back to their senses as they looked at each other .
"What a terrifying kicking technique and…"
"Horrifying skills!"
After being silent for a while, the archpriest of Valiant Temple finally spoke after a deep breath .
The others nodded too .
The combo of [Barsical Kick], [Hundred Violent Kicks], and [Blade Kick] shook the archpriests' hearts since they had never witnessed something like that before but compared to [Half-dead's gaze] and [Sword Skill Myriad Viper], it was nothing .
"He can decide people's life and death without any trace or sign! Wealth Temple and Sin Temple are in trouble now! Hope they're having the "best" time of their lives!"
The archpriest from Love Temple said softly at the direction where Kieran went off before vanishing on the spot .
The others were stunned, they were pondering upon the meaning of Love Temple's archpriest's words .
Some even had more thoughts about it but no one stayed behind because the battle there was finished, none of them wanted to stay behind .
Of course, they also wanted to have a look at the battle at Thorn Temple, in another way .
Everyone else vanished after a while and all of their attention was placed on Thorn Temple .
They were looking forward to what would happen next .
As Sin Temple's officiant, Farles was the first to acknowledge the situation .
He lowered his head and prayed, his body shook as it was shone by the light of the interrogator God, the light started to ripple shortly after that .
The waves of ripples instantly captured Barrion's attention across from him .
"Your plans failed? Our chief knight isn't that easy for you to deal with!"
Barrion looked up and said with a smile .
"You better worry about yourself! Once Sirontu fails, it will mean your demise! And he will not last any longer!" Farles said with a cold smile .
Just like what Officiant Farles said, Archpriest Sirontu couldn't hold it much longer .
While facing the siege from Wealth Temple's archpriest and officiant, Sirontu was placed at a complete disadvantage, his clean priest robe was torn badly in the process .
Blood and injuries were showing on all over his body . His aged face had tiredness that he couldn't conceal but he clenched his teeth and held his ground .
He knew if he stepped down, Thorn Temple would be finished!
So Sirontu couldn't, he dared not step down!
He couldn't imagine that terrifying consequences if he did .
God's mercy was only limited to their own respective believers .
It was cold as ice and harsh as a knife for the believers of other Gods, despite all the Gods originating from the southern city Naveya .
When Wealth and Sin Temple appeared together, Sirontu knew what they wanted: to destroy Thorn Temple!
To strip Lady Thorn of her divine position, destroy her divinity and drag her down from her divine altar .
In fact, not only Sirontu, Barrion knew it as well, therefore they both risked their lives in protecting their temple .
They didn't utilize the powers from their Goddess for they had started to burn their own life force .
They knew if they still siphoned energy from Lady Thorn, it will only increase her burden in this difficult situation .
Their duty was not to increase the trouble for Lady Thorn but allow her to concentrate on dealing with the Interrogator and Lady Wealth .
However…
Judging from the situation at hand, it wasn't progressing too well .
Whether was it Lady Wealth or the Interrogator, each of them had extra believers that lent them their life energy, allowing the Gods to pin down these two from Thorn as they burned their life force .
Before this, Sirontu and Barrion already faced despair, they knew where Burwell went since he wasn't apart of the siege assault .
Although they were confident in Ryan's strength, they didn't think Ryan could really win against Burwell . It was not an issue of trust but Burwell was too infamous himself .
The young Ryan may stand a chance in the future against Burwell but not now!
However, no one would have thought the situation would face such a turn of events!
Ryan won! He won against Burwell!
Laughter came from Sirontu who was injured .
He glanced over the declining situation before him . A scarlet red mist-like energy stream rapidly swirled around the archpriest, boosting his power and speed a few times .
The sword in his hand was as fast and sharp as wind, countering Wealth Temple's archpriest and officiant .
"Getting here from there… I think it will only take our chief knight around 5 minutes based on his speed! And for 5 minutes… we will hold!"
Barrion's voice was heavy and powerful, the scarlet red mist-like energy stream started to swirl around him like Sirontu too, he was using his own life force to buff his old friend for one last time .
The consequences of his action were death, which he accepted with an open heart .
"Old friend, may we meet again in the divine kingdom!"
Barrion uttered the last words before bursting into light .
The burst of light gushed towards Sirontu like a waterfall .
While feeling the empowerment on his body, Thorn Archpriest Sirontu didn't turn around at his old friend, instead, he concentrated his mind at the two foes before him .
