Chapter 478: Chapter 0454: The Global Action of the Archbishop!_1
For a moment, every human and animal within a five-kilometer radius of the square was strongly impacted.
People and animals within five kilometers were flustered almost instantly.
Terrifying fear swept over them, and countless people and animals began instinctively looking for a safe place, running around frantically.
Lv Zhong also displayed an extraordinarily scared look, with his face turning pale and his body shaking.
"Sister Jing, YuanYuan, it... it can’t really be a vengeful spirit, can it?" Among the three women, the girl with phoenix eyes cried out in fright.
Yun Jing, the tallest and most beautiful, also swayed dangerously, nearly toppling over. She watched the chaos in the square, her face changing rapidly, and she shouted, "Forget whether there is a vengeful spirit or not. Let’s stick together and try not to get separated..."
"Sister Jing is right. The whole square is in chaos right now. If we were to be caught up in a stampede, the consequences would be unimaginable..." Fang Yuanyuan started speaking quickly, forcing her hands tightly around Yun Jing and Ye Qinglan, tugging them close. She put a surprising amount of strength into leading the two girls at a run.
Meanwhile, a gentle aura of True Qi formed a protective circle around the three of them, preventing the panicked crowd from crushing against them.
"Hmm... an Ancient Martial Artist?" Lv Zhong looked at the girl called Yuanyuan in surprise, feeling rather astonished.
Indeed, this girl named Yuanyuan was an Ancient Martial Artist. However, her strength was only around the fourth layer of Inner Qi. Though from Lv Zhong’s perspective her cultivation was pitifully low, she was at most twenty-two years old. At this age, being on the fourth layer of Inner Qi was considered genius within the Eight Great Ancient Martial Arts Families.
What surprised Lv Zhong wasn’t her martial arts strength, but the fact that he hadn’t noticed any fluctuations of True Qi from her before.
"Interesting!" All of a sudden, Lv Zhong took a slight interest in this round-faced girl. He "stumbled" a few times and rushed forward, shouting loudly, "Wait, ladies! We’re all compatriots. We should stick together in this time of crisis..."
"If you can keep up, try to stay behind us," Yuanyuan said coldly.
Although she felt that Lv Zhong was a pervert, she agreed to let him follow her out of respect for their shared nationality.
"This girl is very good!" Lv Zhong praised her secretly while expressing gratitude outwardly, nodding repeatedly, "Understood..."
Immediately, Lv Zhong followed closely behind Yun Jing, Ye Qinglan, and Fang Yuanyuan, wobbling unsteadily.
As a fourth layer Ancient Martial Artist, Fang Yuanyuan was impressively quick, nimble, and responsive. With her Inner Qi protecting her and using a technique similar to "Clinging Clothes Eighteen Falls," Fang Yuanyuan could easily lead Yun Jing and Ye Qinglan through the chaotic crowd.
A small safe zone naturally formed behind them. As long as you closely followed, getting through the crowd would be much easier.
And so, with her Inner Qi and a technique similar to "Clinging Clothes Eighteen Falls," Fang Yuanyuan led Yun Jing and Ye Qinglan through the crowd, with Lv Zhong "panicking" close behind.
"Bastards..." Alexander the First, high above, scanned those below with strong spiritual power, seething in rage.
However, he couldn’t find the thief who had stealthily entered the [Sanctum Church]’s Underground Palace and stolen countless treasures.
Enraged to the extreme, he vowed to scatter the ashes of the thief once he was captured.
Unfortunately, much to his shock and frustration, the thief had managed to escape right under his nose.
Just now, he was tempted to unleash his full spiritual power in an attempt to flush out the thief hiding in the shadows.
But if he did that, hundreds of thousands of people in Rome would die, and countless members of the [Sanctum Church] would perish.
As the [Sanctum Church] was gathering faith and destiny from its believers, if they died because of him, it would bring about earth-shaking retribution and karma. The enormous karma and consequences could overwhelm even the Hexagram Array beneath the [Sanctum Church], let alone him.
"Damn thief, I swear I won’t let you go!" He cursed in a menacing tone before transforming into a beam of light and returning to the [Sanctum Church].
The Vatican!
In the underground [Holy Lord Temple], countless powerful cultivators had gathered together, watching nervously as Alexander the First appeared with a gloomy face. Killing intent emanated from him, causing all the cultivators present to fall into a terrified silence.
"What happened, Holy Lord?" Yagore, who commanded the Angel Army, asked cautiously.
Giving Yagore a side glance, Alexander the First emitted a cold killing intent from his tiger-like eyes, announcing: "I have two pieces of bad news. First, the enemy has led us away from our base, and many of my most treasured items have been stolen by a mysterious person..."
With his cultivation level, Alexander did not attempt to hide such defeats from the other Cultivators. He simply laid out the first piece of information.
What?
With Alexander’s words sweeping the internet, all the high-level members of the [Sanctum Church] changed their expressions in shock.
The treasures that Alexander kept were certainly top-quality items. Yet, in the heart of everyone present, Alexander was definitely one of the very top powers on Earth. The person who could steal treasures from him could only be the supreme Blood Emperor of the Dark Council or He Qiu from China.
But, could it really be that these two managed to infiltrate the holy land of the [Sanctum Church]?
The people present all had a skeptical attitude.
He has been out of the public eye for a long time. For more than a thousand years, the Dark Council has been internally managed by the Thirteen Blood Princes of the blood clan, the patriarchs of the wolf clan, and the bear clan. The Blood Emperor of the Dark Council and Alexander the First, like the Blood Emperor, have both been in seclusion for nearly a thousand years. Most importantly, the Blood Emperor’s strength is comparable to that of Alexander the First, and the two are mortal enemies. Alexander the First would not have failed to detect the Blood Emperor in person.
Since it wasn’t the Blood Emperor, could it have been He Qiu from China?
The high-ranking members present shook their heads again. Since the Crusades, the church had also made agreements with the Cultivation Sects of China. It was unlikely that He Qiu would risk upsetting the Holy Land of the [Sanctum Church]. Moreover, everyone believed that while Alexander the First’s combat power might be similar to that of He Qiu, his mental power was certainly much stronger. Therefore, He Qiu from China shouldn’t be able to get close to Alexander too!
Excluding both the Blood Emperor and He Qiu, the high-ranking members of the [Sanctum Church] didn’t consider any other masters. The likes of Qing Song and Yan Jinli from China, and Amaterasu from Little Japan, were all far behind in strength.
Just as the elites of the [Sanctum Church] were pondering who had stolen Alexander the First’s treasure, Alexander made another shocking statement, "Secondly, nearly 30,000 of the secretly cultivated [Holy Beetles] have also been stolen..."
"Ah..."
A single stone had stirred up a thousand waves.
Alexander the First’s treasures being stolen was his own problem.
However, the theft of the [Holy Beetles] was an issue for the whole [Sanctum Church].
Moreover, the [Holy Beetles] were fundamental to the [Sanctum Church], and now that nearly 30,000 had been stolen, the power of the [Sanctum Church]’s underground [Six-Pointed Star Array of All Heavens] would decrease by 30% in a short time.
As a result, not only would the absorption of light energy quickly decrease, but the absorption of believers’ faith and destiny would also decline.
This was an attack on the very foundation of the [Sanctum Church]!
For a moment, all the high-ranking members of the Sanctum Church were infuriated.
"Now that things have been made clear, then, even if we have to turn the whole world upside down, we must find this mysterious person." Alexander the First said with a gloomy face.
Then he waved his hand, and countless rays of light projected onto the others’ foreheads, continuing, "This person appears to be a Western European, nearly two meters tall, with blond hair. He can cloak himself and use Earth Escaping Technique. Of course, this person may also not be a Western European. It is possible he is a Chinese person in disguise. When you investigate in China, you should focus on the Earth Escaping Technique, cloaking technique, and [Holy Beetles]. This person is probably a Cultivator at the Golden Core realm in China, but his skill of concealment is top-notch..."
"Yes!"
The leaders of the Angel Army, Zealot Corps, Knight Corps, Judgment Corps, and others all simultaneously responded.
"Also, keep in mind," Alexander the First paused, and said coldly, "don’t try to deal with this person on your own once you find any information about him. Otherwise, if you lose your life, don’t say I didn’t warn you!"
Everyone nodded in agreement: "Understood!"
All the people present were shrewd. The person who stole the treasures of the founding patriarch Alexander the First was definitely very powerful.
Even if Alexander stated this person was just a Golden Core realm expert from China, his combination of the Earth Escaping Technique, cloaking technique, and other peculiar techniques could still be highly dangerous!
"Alright, Yagore, lead your Angel Corps to China to investigate,..."
"Melkins, lead the Zealot Corps to search throughout Western Europe..."
"Altdorf, lead the Holy Knight Corps to the United States..."
"Gabriel, lead the Judgment Corps to Greece..."
...
For a moment, Alexander the First almost dispatched all the grand armies of the [Sanctum Church]. In Alexander the First’s view, wherever the information of the [Holy Beetles] appears, the mysterious person’s whereabouts can be certain. However, to investigate and search for the [Holy Beetles], only those who have achieved cultivation within the [Sanctum Church] can do it. Because these people have a very keen sense of the [Holy Beetles].
With the majority of cultivators within the [Sanctum Church] deployed, even though it was concealed well, the entire cultivation world on Earth could sense it.
The cultivators in every country were exceptionally vigilant of the [Sanctum Church]’s actions!
The Dark Council, the Cultivation Sects of China, the Genetic Superhumans of the United States, the Gods of Athens in Greece...
All cultivators’ attention began to be captured by the [Sanctum Church].
In England!
A few tall and burly men huddled around a round table, processing the information they received.
"Damn, have the guys of the [Sanctum Church] gone mad? With all their powerful corps leaving the Holy Land, aren’t they afraid of others attacking their base?"
"No, you’re the one who’s mad! The resources of the [Sanctum Church] are not something that we, the Round Table Warriors, can compare with. Their Holy Land is protected by a powerful array and might even harbor a super old monster..."
"I really want to know what happened to the [Sanctum Church] that made them act so crazily..." (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to qidian.com to vote and recommend. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
