Chapter 877: Chapter 575: Luring the Tiger Out of the Mountain, Austin Sage Descends on the Holy City
In the West District of the Holy City, right above the barracks of the Angel Legion, a giant blade formed from a pillar of energy crashed down, leveling the entire camp to the ground! In the South District of the Holy City, the astrology tower responsible for monitoring the entire city was crushed into powder by a giant Flame hand descending from the sky!
And in the North District...
For a moment, it was as if hundreds of bombs had been dropped on the entire Holy City. Deafening explosions echoed one after another as firelight intertwined with Holy Light, and blaring alarms pierced the sky!
"Enemy attack!!"
"Enemies have infiltrated the Holy City!"
"Activate the highest Defense Array!"
Desperate roars and panicked screams instantly replaced the solemn sounds of prayer. The once orderly Holy City fell into unprecedented chaos in a matter of seconds. The believers who had been praying in the square scattered in terror. Countless Temple Knights clad in Armor and Harbingers of Death soared into the sky from various buildings. However, there were simply too many enemies. The chaos caused by over a hundred Catastrophe Level entities could not be quelled anytime soon.
"AWOO?"
On Raylo’s shoulder, the usually quiet Coal Ball had its large, black Gemstone-like eyes filled with excitement. Its little paws twitched eagerly, as if it wanted to go down and join the fray.
Raylo pressed down on its small head, his eyes filled with shock. He wondered if this was the destructive Power of a World Destruction Level Peak Mage. With just a snap of the fingers, an entire city was thrown into chaos!
Taking advantage of the overwhelming chaos, Austin Sage grabbed Raylo, and with a flash, they appeared before the colossal Light Divine Statue. Up close, the grandeur of the Divine Statue and the terrifying Power of Faith it contained became even more palpable. That Power was so pure and majestic that it caused the surrounding space to turn viscous.
Austin Sage didn’t even glance at the guards scrambling around the city. He raised his hand, pressed his five fingers together, and made a phantom slash toward the Divine Statue.
SWISH!
An invisible, translucent ripple flashed through the air. A Space Blade! The attack, capable of effortlessly slicing through mountains, slashed silently toward the Divine Statue. However, the moment the Space Blade was about to touch the Divine Statue, a sudden change occurred!
HUM!
A layer of golden ripples, like water waves, suddenly rippled outward with the Divine Statue at its center. The ripples rapidly expanded, forming a massive, translucent golden shield that completely enveloped the entire Divine Statue. When the Space Blade struck the shield, it only caused it to cave in slightly before being completely nullified by the vast, ocean-like Power of Holy Light.
It was a Holy Light Shield hidden within the void!
"Hmph, just as I thought," Austin Sage muttered. He seemed to have anticipated this, a trace of mockery flashing through his cloudy eyes. He slowly raised his right hand, palm facing upward.
A silver speck of light, no larger than a grain of rice, materialized in his palm. At first, the speck of light was inconspicuous, but in the next second, it suddenly erupted with an unimaginable suction force. The surrounding light, air, and even space itself began to wildly twist and collapse toward that single point!
BOOM!
A roar that didn’t belong to this world exploded in the depths of everyone’s souls! Centered around his palm, an unprecedented spatial storm descended! Countless pitch-black rifts, as thin as strands of hair, appeared out of thin air. Like a school of starved Cannibal Fish, they frantically tore and sliced at the Holy Light Shield before them.
SCREECH... SCREECH SCREECH SCREECH...
The ear-piercing sound of cutting echoed through the heavens and the earth. In the face of this terrifying storm, the Holy Light Shield flickered violently. The golden light and the pitch-black rifts clashed and annihilated each other, erupting into millions of dazzling specks of light.
