Chapter 776 The Hissing Gaze

The Scarlet Witch's years of planning have finally come to fruition today.

This is the first superior being that Milo has encountered in the Dreamland who uses the power of faith as his main fighting method, and now it has become a clash of faith powers.

The remnants of the Forbidden Zone, the Rus' dynasty, and Ussa, against the Golden Kingdom.

...

This inexplicable force seemed to emerge somewhat unexpectedly on the Azure Passage. In the eyes of the temple's superiors, all the existing plunderable civilizations within the Dream Realm had already been divided up, so there was no way that an unfamiliar belief system could exist.

Therefore, Lu Kui was also very surprised as to how Milo managed to quietly deploy his own belief system right under the noses of the gods.
What makes a mere kid who isn't even in a position of authority so special?
But the truth is, the phantom golden tree created by the magic was burned.

Lu Kui, who was in a superior position, was forced back hundreds of meters by Milo.

...

This was the first time Lu Kui had ever been subjected to this karmic fire. He was both shocked and furious, because he didn't even know what the spiral flames were. He couldn't see through them or understand them. He only knew that any spells that originated from the power of faith would be instantly reduced to ashes if they touched the spiral black flames.

From another perspective, this also shows that the Hooked Finger Temple has kept this power very well hidden, but unfortunately they can't use it.

...

"Be bold!"

With a furious shout, Old Deng's figure grew dozens of meters in just a few seconds.

Within that illusory figure, the patterns of the golden tree totem were clearly visible.

As it turns out, the power of faith accumulated over thousands of years is indeed not something that a child like Milo, who has only lived for over twenty years, can easily exploit.

"Arrogant brat, do you think you can act with impunity just because you possess that evil fire?"

"court death!"

Lu Kui's voice almost made the darkness of the entire underground world ripple clearly.

Then a giant, golden hand descended from the sky!

...

Milo could have easily dodged it, but he couldn't, because others might not have survived the crushing impact of that palm print.

So, on the path paved with azure aurora, black flames gathered into a spiraling storm, rising from the ground to meet the golden palm.

BANG!!!!

Fear fuels the flames that burn away sin.

Within that seemingly righteous and magnificent golden radiance, there also exists hidden sin and filth; it is not without flaws.

The Golden Rule is by no means perfect; it is even full of flaws. No matter how the Golden Tree's belief system evolves in the Dreamland, its source will always be the lost Unseen Land in the Realm of Awake, and the church that was reborn there. It is the faith of the Realm of Awake that supports the Golden Tree's rebirth in the Dreamland, and Milo knows all too well what the church there looks like.

Behind divine glory lies only sin; even the most sang hymns cannot drown out the wails of wronged souls. Where there is scripture, there is fire.

That fire is the fire that burns away sins.

...

Buzz! ! ! !

For a lower-level soul to confront a higher-level one is to gamble with its own life. An ordinary soul would have already gone mad under the pressure, its spiritual vision insufficient to support it in looking directly at the figure of the higher-level one. But Milo is an exception. He is a person without reverence. Whether he loses his sanity or not has no direct relation to the level of his spiritual vision, because fear will be digested internally.

As for risking one's life... there's really no heroic sentiment involved; the person simply feels they're tough.

...

If this clash of palm and flame were to collide head-on, Milo would indeed be more likely to lose, but it's not impossible for him to win, even if it's only one or two out of ten.

But the truth is, Luque has never been the kind of person who would choose to fight head-on. Or rather, what he is better at is eliminating even the last one or two percent chance of his opponent winning. This is Luque's nature, and it is also the responsibility he bears in the Temple of the Golden Law, which is basically equivalent to a deacon or clerk in the church.

Just like Luque never intended to kill Milo himself from the beginning, but rather aimed to destroy the Blue Passage.

There are many ways to defeat Milo and make him submit.

...

So that slap wasn't actually aimed at Milo. Ninety-nine percent of the holy light suddenly refracted in the air, changed direction, and then bombarded Freya and Xiaoyan's location.

"you wanna die!!!"

Milo rarely gets this worked up.

But that old bastard is really despicable; I've never seen such a shameless person.

...

The more Milo tried to defend, the more his initial burst of fire spread out. Trying to save people and counterattack at the same time was impossible, especially since he was already at a severe disadvantage.

As a result, he not only couldn't hold back the golden hand, but he was also in danger of losing his own life.

The spiraling black flames were forced to retreat step by step, and the blood vessels under Milo's skin burst one after another, turning into a blood-red figure in the blink of an eye.

...

The old man knew that keeping Milo around was actually quite simple; he just needed to keep the others around him.

Now that an opportunity to severely damage Milo has presented itself, he is even less likely to let it slip by.

So he didn't even glance at the palm that crushed down, but instead used his other hand to deliver a follow-up punch, which was the one that was truly aimed at Milo.

...

Just then, a dragon's roar echoed from the spot where the palm had been crushed!
"throat!!!!!!!"…

Four wings, giant claws, rock-like scales... enveloped in crimson lightning and storm.

The figure of an ancient dragon appeared in the narrow, azure passage.

She withstood Lu Kui's palm strike, then roared forward and forcefully rammed into the fist that followed.

In an instant, sparks flew everywhere, and the rubble from her broken scales fell from the sky like an avalanche.

Even the 100-meter-long dragon was knocked off balance by the impact.

But the next second, her two forelimbs reached into the night, pulling out two spears formed from converging red lightning, and slashed at the giant human figure that Lu Kui had transformed into, one in front and one behind.

Boom! ! !
Not only that, she also lowered one of her wings to protect Milo firmly, and the ancient dragon's rock-like outer scales withstood the terrifying burning power from the golden holy light.

...

The tearing pain caused the ancient dragon to roar incessantly.

But she also lowered her head to check if the seriously injured Milo was alright.

But Milo has never ever lived a life of hiding under someone else's protection.

At this moment, his figure had already climbed up the back of the ancient dragon along its long tail, running wildly all the way to the dragon's head, where he leaped with all his might on top of it.

A vortex of black flames reappeared in the air, enveloping Milo's body and merging with the blood to form an arrow that pierced straight towards the brow of Lu Kui's avatar.

...

"What an exhilarating combo attack..."

Yan, watching from a distance, had a change in his expression as he observed this scene.

However, faced with the counterattack from Milo and Freya, the shameless old man once again chose to retreat and avoid it, instead of taking Milo's attack head-on.

Because he has already achieved his goal.

...

Freya's potential was forced out at the crucial moment, and she successfully transformed into a dragon to block Luque's punch, but she also attracted the attention of some shady eyes.

That came from the darkness of night...

Many deep, dark eyes gradually opened...

Then, the sound of a snake flicking its tongue could be heard.

The slumbering snake people on the other side of the shrill interface opened by the Night Weaver were finally awakened by the dragon's roar.

Their gazes all began to focus on the enormous ancient dragon.

...

……

"Could we talk to that female ghost and ask her to stop for now? After we break through, she can do whatever she wants, whether she knits a night or a sweater." Yan Ziran, who was responsible for blocking the back of the Azure Passage, also noticed the malicious and cold gazes in the surrounding night. He shouted at Milo.

However, at this moment, the Night Weaver in the distance had completely blended into the night, and Milo could no longer see her shadow or sense her presence.

Dark red light surged beneath the night sky, and the space where the eerie sirens stood was separated from them by only a thin veil.

In reality, the tips of Freya's larger pair of wings, which had transformed into a giant dragon, had already extended into the area of ​​azure aurora reaching into the side of the grotesque dragon. There was no way around it; the ancient dragon was simply too large. In the eyes of the snake people, this was tantamount to someone sticking blood-stained flesh into a cage...

"Roar!!!!"

She suddenly felt a sharp pain in her wings and let out a scream.

Trying to pull its wings back from the darkness, it found itself gripped tightly by something, unable to move.

"Change back to human form!" Milo shouted to Freya.

But she seemed to be under some kind of control, unable to retract her wings or even control her shape.

Some molten, hot blood had already flowed down her wings, and no matter how much she struggled, it was to no avail.

...

"It's a snake!" Xiao Yan released beams of light from her pupils into the night, but it had no effect. However, with the help of the bright light, she seemed to see something through the darkness. She turned around and shouted to Milo with a look of terror on her face:
"Many snakes bit her wings!"

...

Gu Long felt a terrible tearing pain. She struggled and looked to Milo for help.

Behind them, after hearing Xiao Yan's words, Yan had already twisted off one of Woti Ig's snake heads, then grabbed his other head and threatened the night sky above: "If you don't stop, I'll tear your eldest prince apart right now!"

Did you hear that!?

However, all that responded to him was Woti Iger's dying, cold laugh:
"Ha...they wouldn't care if I live or die...you're too naive..."

"I'll fucking swear! You call this snakeskin a prince? What a piece of trash!" Yan reached out to rip Woti Ig's head off from its mouth, but forgot that snake-like creatures could dislocate their jaws. After pulling for a while, he only managed to rip its mouth several times larger…

He angrily slammed Woti Iger to the ground, then got up and looked at Milo.

Seeing Milo's lips moving in the distance, he said—"Trust me one more time?"
Yan nodded without hesitation.

And so, the fist, wreathed in the flames of sin, slammed heavily onto the surface of the Azure Passage in the next second.
