Time flowed like quicksand. In the blink of an eye, four months had passed.
Today was the 30th of December, year 9997 of the Yulan calendar.
At night, Dorm 1987.
"Third Bro, tomorrow is the Yulan Festival. Fenlai City will definitely be very lively. The four of us brothers should go and join in the fun.”Yale said to Lin Feng, who had just returned from the back of the mountain, as he raised his dumbbells to exercise his chest muscles.
Every year, the first day of the first month was known as the Yulan Festival. The Yulan Festival was the largest festival in the entire Yulan continent. On this day, the Radiant Church would also hold the grandest Mass.
Fenlai City was the 'holy capital' of the Radiant Church, and the headquarters of the Radiant Church was located in the western part of the city. Naturally, Fenlai City's 'Mass' was the largest Mass in the entire Yulan continent. When the time came, the Supreme Pontiff of the Radiant Church would personally preside over it. This was an incredible ceremony, and many, many people would go to watch.
January 1st.
West Fenlai City. The headquarters of the Radiant Church, the Radiant Temple. It was an enormous building that was nearly a hundred meters tall. This enormous building could be clearly seen in every other part of Fenlai City.
In front of the Radiant Temple was a large square that was thousands of meters wide. The ground of the square was paved with smooth white rocks. At this moment, the square was filled with people, and the four brothers of 1987 were among them.
The knights of the Church were maintaining order in the square, and the people gathered here were also very obedient.
"The Radiant Church sure has a big head.”Lin Feng was shocked when he saw that these knights were all LV 5. Although he didn't think much of a Level 5 expert, it was still quite impressive.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was already eight o'clock.
Suddenly, the 100-meter-tall spire of the Brilliance Shrine lit up, and white light radiated down. The huge angel statue in the middle of the square also had a faint halo circulating. At the same time, the entire square echoed with a beautiful song that seemed to come from the divine realm...
At this time, a group of people walked out from the side hall of the Radiant Church. At the front of this group of people were rows of Temple Knights wearing white battle armor and red feathers on their helmets. Each of these Temple Knights had a knight that was unique to experts. Especially when these hundred knights marched forward in an orderly manner, the oppressive feeling made the entire square fall silent.
"I didn't think that the Radiant Church would be so powerful. Those over a hundred knights must have been at least warriors of the seventh rank.”Doehring Cowart appeared next to Lin Feng, carefully observing the group of people." A Sanctuary-realm combatant actually appeared today. Forget it, I'll just enter the Coiling Dragon ring."”
Doehring Cowart vanished after saying that.
"Saint-level combatants?" Lin Feng couldn't help but carefully observe the group of people.
Behind the hundreds of white-armored Temple Knights were a dozen white-robed Priests, and behind the white-robed Priests was a bald, silver-robed elder who was surrounded by a few red-robed Archbishops.
"Pope!"
The bald, silver-robed old man was obviously the center of this group. Lin Feng couldn't help but focus his attention on this man. The Light Pope was tall, almost two meters tall. The Light Pope held a scepter in his left hand that was almost as tall as the Pope.
Behind the Holy Emperor and the Cardinal were four black-robed elders and over a hundred purple-robed warriors. This large group of people walked in the middle of the road in an orderly manner. No one dared to make a noise in the square where hundreds of thousands of people were gathered.
"Grandpa Doehring, you said Saint-level combatants. Who is a Saint-level expert?”Lin Feng asked.
"I could tell at a glance that the Holy Emperor and one of the four black-robed elders behind him were Saints. They were also confident that they didn't conceal their auras. After five thousand years, the small Church that had been holed up in the Pouant Empire had actually developed to such an extent.”Doehring Cowart sighed.
When the Pope and his group walked past, the people in the square began to whisper.
"Third Bro, look. The six great royal families have arrived. The one at the front is the royal family of the Kingdom of Fenlai. That golden-haired man is His Majesty the King, the most powerful warrior of the Kingdom of Fenlai, a warrior of the ninth rank.”Ayeru whispered into Lin Feng's ear.
"Your Majesty?" Lin Feng looked over.
The muscular middle-aged man in dazzling golden armor with golden hair that resembled a lion's was the King of Fenlai.
Seeing Clayde, Lin Feng's eyes turned cold. Clayde was the murderer who had killed his mother, Lina. He was also the target of his revenge.
However, Lin Feng wasn't so impulsive as to pounce on Clayde and kill him right now. With his current strength, if he were to launch a sneak attack, it was very likely that he would be able to kill Clayde. However, after killing Clayde, he would definitely be captured by the Saints of the Church, or even killed.
Hundreds of thousands of people stood in an orderly manner in the square in front of the Brilliance Shrine. In front of the angel statue, the Light Pope, the Cardinal, the White-robed Priest, the Temple Knight, and a group of people stood quietly. The Light Pope, who was surrounded by them, was undoubtedly the most dazzling.
The six Royal Families of the Holy Union and the archdukes of many duchies were also standing quietly and solemnly.
Suddenly, with the Light Pope as the center, a clear milky white ripple spread out. Instantly, the square where hundreds of thousands of people had gathered fell silent. Almost everyone had a peaceful smile on their faces, and their hearts were unprecedentedly calm.
"It's too terrifying to be able to so easily release the holy light that covers hundreds of thousands of people.”As a mage, Lin Feng could tell how powerful the Light Pope was.
The entire square was so quiet that only the sound of the breeze could be heard.
"In the name of the Lord!" The Holy Emperor said calmly, but his voice resounded through the world and shook the soul.
Everyone present could feel the pressure emanating from the Holy Emperor. Even Lin Feng couldn't resist it and bowed respectfully. This pressure was even more terrifying than the pressure from the two Saints and the magical beast, the Black Dragon, that Lin Feng had encountered in Wushan Village.
This kind of pressure did not need to oppress people, but it made people worship it from the soul.
Divine Pressure!
Other than the Holy Emperor, the other hundreds of thousands of people in the square, from the Red-robed Archbishops to the Kings of the Six Kingdoms to the commoners, all bowed respectfully and listened to the instructions.
"May the Lord's love, grace, and gifts be with you.”
The Holy Emperor's voice was not loud, but it reverberated through the world and shook the soul.
Ripples of holy light spread out from the top of the Radiant Temple, covering everyone. Almost everyone present felt their hearts calm, and their bodies reached an unprecedented state. Everyone was extremely respectful.
"May the Lord bless you with grace and peace.”
At the same time, the Holy Emperor's body emitted a peaceful light." People of the Lord, let us confess our sins and sincerely repent of our mistakes in our thoughts, actions, and words. May the Lord have mercy on us, forgive our sins, and grant us eternal life.”
At once, the entire world echoed with holy chants. All the believers of the Temple of Light also began to sing devoutly. The chants of the believers and the chants of the world echoed together. Everyone was devout and respectful.
……
The process of Mass was very complicated. From repentance, to pity, to praise, to prayer, to gratitude, and finally to singing.
The vast majority of the people in the square were believers of the Radiant Church. Most of them were immersed in the radiance of the Radiant Temple. Even those who did not believe in the Brilliance Shrine were moved by the atmosphere. When the singing ended, everyone was completely awake. It was already noon.
After the Mass ended, everyone left in an orderly manner.
Seeing the Pope and Clayde leave, Lin Feng's determination to become stronger grew even stronger.
The Mass hosted by the Light Pope didn't affect Lin Feng much. He only got to know his future enemy through the ceremony.
