Original God's Dark Priest

Ying went berserk. She had thought that the power she had gradually comprehended under Saffir's guidance and blessing, and through Skirk's training, was already quite formidable, but at this moment, she still felt it wasn't enough.

"Not enough, not enough, too weak!" She swung her sword while desperately squeezing out the power from her body.

Once the Anemo elemental is depleted, use the Geo elemental, followed by Electro, Grass, Hydro...

She gripped the sword tighter and tighter, growing increasingly frustrated. Why couldn't the fire elemental power resonate with her?

If possible, could she use an extra bit of power?

No, that's not right. Even if you master fire elemental power, it's just an extra bit of power, not enough.

The white light emanating from the Slinger in Ying's hand grew brighter and brighter. After once again slaying the Beast Hound, she seemed to be blessed with good fortune. With a clenched fist in her left hand, another bladeless sword appeared in her hand.

This time, the bladeless sword turned deep blue, and its blade lengthened rapidly. [Sky Blade - Modified] Extreme Ice Demon Sword - Kairadin.

Dual-wielding weapons.

Ying plunged directly into the encirclement of the abyssal monsters, wielding her two weapons with ferocious speed, like a meat grinder on the battlefield.

“Ying…” Paimon sensed that something was wrong with her and wanted to say something to remind her, but he didn’t know what to say.

Chaska took out his bow and arrows and looked at Marani and Ianshan, who were comforting Katsina: "Let's go too, we can't let Ying fight alone."

She was also worried that Ying's condition might deteriorate. As long as the monsters here were wiped out before Ying couldn't hold on any longer, everything would probably be fine.

Ian Shan thought the same thing, and she also took out her spear and assumed a fighting stance.

Kazina was the same. She stood up, her breathing still a little unsteady, but she had been transformed by what she had been through: "Yes, I can continue fighting too!"

“Then let’s all go together!” Marani said, then suddenly remembered something. She stretched out her hand, and a pendant lay quietly in her palm. “Kazina, wear this. Ying said it was prepared for you.”

"What is this?" Kazina asked, somewhat puzzled, but still obediently accepted the pendant.

The pendant already had a cord threaded through it, and Kazina casually hung it around her neck. The soft, hazy white light spread out, making the air in this enclosed space, which had been eroded by the abyss, feel fresher.

Sensing the changes around her, Kachina was quite surprised: "This thing seems very powerful!"

"Then keep it safe." Marani could also sense that subtle change and couldn't help but marvel at how impressive the thing Ying had prepared was.

But in reality, the pendant that Saffir prepared was far more than that; purifying the surrounding abyssal energy was only a minor function among its many benefits.

Its true power lies in its ability to subtly nourish the wearer's body, making them healthy and strong. Then, when encountering danger, it will automatically trigger a protective mechanism. As for the effects, they will soon find out.

Seeing that Ying had killed countless abyssal monsters and was already quite far away, Kazina rushed forward.

What the crowd couldn't see was that as Kazina rushed out, she left behind faint golden specks of light wherever she went. They were very small and inconspicuous, but they were definitely there.

Ying naturally noticed Kazina running towards her. She frowned slightly, not expecting Kazina to actually come to her aid despite her own exhaustion.

Just as she was about to speak, she heard Kazina's voice: "I'm fine, I can continue fighting, it's okay."

"Are you really alright?" Upon hearing this, the murderous intent in Ying's eyes instantly diminished. She had initially thought that Kazina was so angry because she was seriously injured and might be on the verge of death, but now that Kazina was perfectly fine, her aura was no longer so strong.

In the instant her attention was diverted, a beast hound suddenly appeared behind her and lunged at her back.

Kachina was horrified at the sight and cried out, "Watch out!"

They were too far away to stop it in time, and just as things were about to turn out badly, the pendant on Katsina's chest, which emitted a soft halo, suddenly flickered, and then the two swords in Ying's hands seemed to be attracted to each other and began to move closer.

At the same time, two more bladeless swords appeared, quickly transforming into the dark-attribute magic sword Basada and the fire-attribute magic sword Pranz.

The four swords merged into one, transforming into a giant blade that appeared in Ying's hand.

"The Sword of Oath, Levitin." As Ying grasped the hilt of the massive blade, the name of this weapon came to mind.

Without the slightest hesitation, she raised her sword, swung it, and slashed!

"Sword of Glory!!!"

A blinding golden light burst forth, piercing the deep darkness of the Night God's Kingdom.

Under the glow of this light, hordes of abyssal monsters had nowhere to hide and were completely annihilated and obliterated. The surrounding area was completely empty, and all enemies were wiped out.

Moreover, all of these came from Ying Jueqiang's powerful attack.

After doing all this, Ying's body swayed slightly, and then she fell to the ground. At the last moment, Kazina caught up, her small body supporting Ying's body and helping her to sit down slowly.

"Are you alright?" Kazina was very nervous. Ying's earth-shattering sword strike just now had really shocked her. She felt that the brilliance of that sword strike was no less than that of a god.

The difference is that a god can unleash a series of strikes after delivering the first, but Ying had to exert all her strength to achieve the same effect. This is the difference between humans and gods.

Ying slowly shook her head, leaning against Kazina with a somewhat greedy air. The little girl's aura was relieving Ying's fatigue and replenishing her strength.

Ying knew in her heart that it wasn't because of Kazina, but because of the pendant that Safiel had given her.

The others then dealt with their enemies and gathered around.

Once everyone had arrived, Kazina spoke: "Before you arrived, the Great Spirit concealed my presence, and then I kept stalling for time, hiding here and there."

"You're amazing. It's good that you're alright." Marani placed her hands on Katzina's shoulders, her worry and pity evident on her face.

Ying had recovered somewhat by then, and she stood up, supporting herself on her knees: "That's about right, shouldn't we go back?"

She was almost completely incapacitated. The strain on her body from Levitin was too great, and she needed time to adjust. Right now, she felt very insecure and wanted to leave with Kazina as soon as possible.

“Um… I have a request. Could we go together to check on Da Ling’s condition?” Kazina made this request.

Ying's expression froze for a moment. Now that their fighting strength had been damaged, should they continue to stay here?

She felt a little bit dead.

Kazina was unaware of Ying's thoughts. She said, "The problem with the Resurrection Poem, although I don't know how to describe it, is definitely related to the pollution of the abyss."

Listening to Kazina's words, Ianshan crossed her arms and pondered for a moment before speaking: "Seeing the current situation, it basically confirms Vulcan's conjecture."

Murko, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, spoke up at this moment: "In the Kingdom of Night God, there are six main totem poles, which represent the great spirits of various tribes."

If the main totem pole is the main body of the Great Spirit, then the totem pole here is an avatar that shares the consciousness of the Great Spirit.

It is precisely because of the existence of so many clones that the Great Spirit's consciousness can cover the entire Kingdom of the Night God, and can find the soul no matter where it goes.

However, if the clone is severely corrupted, its soul will become lost in the Kingdom of the Night God.

These words are very simple and easy to understand. If there is a problem with the Resurrection Poem, it means that there must be a problem with the Great Spirit's clone.

Ian Shan was well aware of this. Her heart sank slightly as she stated her judgment: "But the current situation is that more than one clone has encountered problems. Even if the power of the abyss is driven away, it will not help."

“Should we abandon the Great Spirit? It has been protecting me all along…” Kazina was very grateful; she had been protected and wanted to repay the Great Spirit.

Ying frowned, her gaze falling on the faintly glowing pendant on Kazina's chest, and she made up her mind: "Anyway... saving one is the same as saving another..."

She may not be able to fight anymore, but that doesn't mean she has no other options. Sapphire is watching from the Holy Fire Arena, and that guy won't let them encounter danger here.

After some thought, Chaska agreed with Kazina's suggestion: "I agree, and we can use this opportunity to find out the abyssal monster that is trying to chase Kazina."

She could see clearly that the creatures Ying had just killed were low-level monsters like the Beast Hounds, and were definitely not the culprits who were chasing Kazina. If she wanted to avenge Kazina, she could try to lure them away, since this thing was very likely related to the guy who invaded the Nata ley lines.

"If we can get rid of this guy, it should slow down the deterioration of the Night God Kingdom, right?" Chasca revealed his true purpose.

Suddenly, Kazina clutched her head in pain and let out a helpless whimper.

Marani, who had been keeping a close eye on Katina's condition, immediately noticed something was wrong: "Katina! What's wrong?"

"No...it's nothing, just a bit of a headache, and there's a voice in my head telling me to abandon the Great Spirit and go back quickly..." Kazina covered her head, and despite the pain, she still clearly expressed her feelings.

Paimon said with a worried look, "Why don't we leave? Kazina has been here for too long."

"It's okay, I... I won't listen to its nonsense, I can hold on." Kazina shook her head, forcing herself to stay awake, and insisted on going.

Ying stared at Kazina for several seconds, and seeing that she still insisted, she sighed: "Where is the totem pole?"

Kazina breathed a sigh of relief, immediately pointed in a direction, and pleaded, "It's not far ahead. I'll lead the way. I can fight too, so please..."

“Listen to me, Kazina, we will go with you, but we are here to help the Great Spirit, not to prove anything to you,” Marani emphasized.

Helping the Great Spirit is something every Nata person would do; she said this to avoid putting Kazina on a psychological burden. It wasn't Kazina's idea that put everyone in danger, but rather for the sake of everyone in Nata.

At the same time, she also hoped that Katzina would not put on a brave face. She knew very well that Katzina had always lived under the scrutiny of others because Katzina's ancient name was Ushaboti, which symbolized perseverance.

Some people think that Katsina is unworthy of this ancient name. Katsina knows this. Although she doesn't say it, she is secretly competing with herself. She longs to prove herself and wants everyone to know that she, Katsina, is the rightful successor to Usaboti.

Even if she suffers immense torment, with her bones broken and ground to powder, she will hold on to her last breath, as if only in this way can she prove the worth of her Usaberti.

“You don’t need to prove anything to yourself. If you can’t hold on any longer, just rely on us.” Marani’s tone was gentle, like that of a kind and understanding older sister.

Watching their conversation, Ian Shan frowned slightly. She knew this was not the time to be reckless. More importantly, every second wasted here increased the danger.

So she advised, "Let's finish this quickly."

“Well, since we’re already here, let’s get this over with.” Chasca nodded.

The problem with the Resurrection Poem has a huge impact on Nata. They already suffered a great loss in resisting the Abyss, and without the Resurrection Poem to remedy the situation, it won't be long before everyone in Nata is wiped out.

If this problem can be solved this time, it will save us a lot of trouble later.

Seeing that no one had any objections, Kachina smiled happily and quickly pointed in a direction: "Let's go this way."

Ying felt a little helpless, but didn't say anything. She suddenly understood Safiel. In Safiel's eyes, was she also a disobedient child who had to be taken care of?

Thinking of how Saffir had helped her solve many problems without saying a word, Ying felt she should do the same; that's what inheritance is all about.

Seeing that they were about to leave, Murko said, "I'll stay here and hold off that abyssal monster."

“You…” Ying felt this was inappropriate. “This will put you in great danger.”

Murko shook his head: "It's alright. I'm not as strong as that guy, but I know this place better than it, and..."

He paused, then said, "My time is running out. I believe you, like my friend, are not very good at facing farewells."

"Go now, achieve your goal, then leave this place and go back to where you belong."

Ian Shan took a deep breath, suppressing the emotions rising in her heart, and said very seriously, "Thank you for everything you've done for us."

“You are a remarkable hero,” Marani praised sincerely.

Receiving praise from his juniors, Murko smiled with satisfaction: "Haha, thank you." Then, he became serious, as if making a vow, "We will not fight alone."

At the Holy Fire Arena, Saffir has kept his eyes closed ever since Ying and her group entered the Kingdom of the Night God.

Mavica and Sitrali were beside her. Both of them had the ability to observe the situation inside the Kingdom of Night. When they saw that Murco intended to hold off the powerful abyss monster by himself, the three of them fell silent.

“Murko, a remarkable hero.” Saffir opened his eyes and sighed softly.

Sitella nodded slightly, while Mavica tentatively asked, "I've heard that the second Dark Priest of the Fatui Enforcers has the ability to reverse life and death. What do you think, Professor Su Jin?"

Saffir raised his eyes slightly, looking into Mavica's eyes: "Why did you suddenly bring this up, Lord Vulcan?"

Sitale frowned: "Convince a Shadow Priest to resurrect Murko? Have you considered the price you'll pay for doing so?"

Mavica shook her head slightly: "I was just thinking, neither the Shadow Priest nor the captain are inherently evil or without principles. If they knew what we were facing, would they... be willing to..."

"Murko, don't even think about it, it's impossible." Saffir waved his hand, dispelling Mavica's unrealistic fantasies. "That resurrection spell has a prerequisite: a physical body."

"Whether it's Murko or the warriors Nata who sacrificed themselves, without their bodies, their souls cannot return. Lord Vulcan, do not harbor any illusions."

"I see. Sigh, what a pity." Mavica sighed. She had genuinely considered that if Saffir were willing to resurrect some powerful warriors for Nata, she would pay any price for it.

Just as Mavica was about to give up, Saffir pondered for a moment and spoke again: "However... I can make some arrangements. Resurrection is out of the question, but..."

"Perhaps this could compensate for the fact that the Resurrection Poem is ineffective. Lord Vulcan, are you interested in this?"

Mavica's eyes lit up slightly: "Is there such technology? What do I need to give in return?"

"No need, anyway... it's just a test subject, I'm not sure if it will work. Let's just consider it an experiment using the battlefield on Nata's side." After Saffir finished speaking, Veronica appeared in her hand, and she was about to start setting up the formation.
