edge of pure land.

Chapter 288 Rediscovering the Original Intention

The Vice-Pope appeared and disappeared without a trace. No one noticed his coming at first. It was not until he appeared that they realized that the huge control room was already filled with the sound of wind.

Lu Buer's first reaction was nervousness. After all, he was facing a god this time, and the deputy pope was already very old and was on the verge of death at any time.

But he soon found out he was wrong.

Because the deputy pope at this moment is not the old man who was struggling to death on the hospital bed yesterday, but a real lion and tiger, exuding a ferocious aura, like a young man.

With a snap, Gong Yu's right hand was torn apart by the whistling wind, and the pale shroud was shattered into powder, but not a drop of blood flowed out, only countless butterflies were flying.

The reincarnation of the god sat on the chair and slid backwards. His broken wrist gushed out a rich dark substance and recovered in an instant. "I didn't expect you to use drugs to forcibly recover to your peak state? That's right, as the ancients said, the only meaning of the existence of rotten wood is to burn. For someone as old and dying as you, there is no point in living if you don't make one last effort."

The Vice-Pope strode towards him and said expressionlessly, "Don't act so arrogant in front of me. You're not in a good condition right now. Although Medanzo is not very reliable, he can be very aggressive when he's in a bad mood."

Gong Yu put down the coffee cup in his hand and did not answer.

A faint holy light could be seen emerging from his body wrapped in the shroud, which looked like the lines of broken porcelain, accompanied by shattering sounds.

It looked like Medanzo had used his divine power to fill this guy's body with photons, so that he had to suppress the expanding energy in his body at all times, otherwise he would explode on the spot.

This is also the reason why Gong Yu hid himself.

It seems that Medanzo won that battle.

"Child, go."

The Vice-Pope said in a deep voice.

Lu Bu'erxin said that he couldn't move at all now. His consciousness was groggy and his body felt as heavy as if it was filled with lead. He didn't know what ability had affected him.

The deputy pope bit a golden seed on his back teeth, and a fierce holy light suddenly lit up in his pupils. He casually pointed at his forehead and said, "Break!"

Like a loud thunderclap, Lu Buer's mind suddenly became clear, as if he had struggled out of a muddy swamp. It was at this moment that he suddenly realized that he had been entangled in the gloomy deathly aura without knowing when.

He didn't even notice this strange scene just now.

"The Corrupted Death God possesses the power of the undead. Most of the strange stories about ghosts around the world originate from him. When facing this kind of thing, you must not be possessed by him. Once you are corroded by the "death energy", you will slowly turn into a corpse." The deputy pope protected him as he flew back, and it was obvious that he was unwilling to continue the fight.

"It is a great honor for me that a god personally came to deal with my Fourth Perfect World. When I die, I will write this incident on my tombstone."

Lu Bu Er took a deep breath and said, "Thank you very much."

"Don't many old online novels have this kind of loophole? The villains could have strangled the main characters in their growth stage in advance, but they chose to let them grow, and finally suffered a crushing defeat. The reality is that as long as the other party senses that you have the slightest sign of rising, they will kill you."

The deputy pope stood in front of him, staring at the flying butterflies with eyes as fierce as a lion or tiger. With a wave of his withered right hand, a whistling wind was stirred up, and there was a hint of warmth in the wind: "And the reason why old people like us exist is to prevent things like this. Young people are the hope of the future, so don't thank me, this is what I should do."

Today, he seemed to have regained his vitality, full of energy like a young man, and his voice was full of energy, especially the waving of his hands, which was like waving a battle flag, revealing a sense of solemnity and determination: "I also have a family, a son and a granddaughter, and the fields in my hometown, the dog in the yard... Those things still need you to protect."

Life energy surged in his body.

His breathing and heartbeat were beating like a war drum.

The pupils of his eyes lit up with gold.

This is...holy riot disorder!

The butterflies fluttering in the sky were torn apart by the strong wind, and in an instant they spread out like black fog, exuding a faint smell of death and decay, and even making a sharp scream.

The black fog rolled in and engulfed the Watcher's Lighthouse.

The ruins of broken time were instantly covered by black fog. The priests and pastors who were supposed to be dead actually stood up twitching and turned into rotten zombies.

Even Sasha and El were twitching and rolling, struggling to get up from the ground like zombies, their pale eyes filled with bloodshot, and they were roaring towards the sky.

In the mist, Gong Yu's elegant voice drifted by with the wind: "Deputy Pope, are you really as noble as you say? Why do I feel that you are atonement? You should know that you are the deputy pope... How could the Akasha Holy Church's research on my corpse be done without your nod? You are also a greedy person, so don't be hypocritical here."

Lu Buer was slightly stunned. At this moment, he had retreated to the highway. He raised his eyes and looked at the majestic back of the old man in front of him. He thought that the other party was trying to sow discord between them.

Unexpectedly, the Vice-Pope still raised his hand to protect him, summoned a howling hurricane to tear through the diffuse black fog, and forced a passage open: "Yes, I am also a sinner. I was also involved in what happened back then. Most of the sins in this world come from greed. The North Pole's ascension to the gods was caused by greed, and the Akasha Holy Church's research on the reincarnation of the gods was also due to greed, which led to the invasion of the corrupted death god and caused a series of tragedies."

Lu Buer's pupils trembled slightly and he seemed to want to say something but stopped himself.

The Vice-Pope tore the resurrected corpses into bloody powder and said calmly: "Yes, I actually guessed it a long time ago, but it was too late. I admit that I am not a very intelligent person, and I am not outstanding in wisdom. Therefore, it was not until Longque was seriously injured and fell from rank that I realized the seriousness of the problem. We made a huge mistake."

As the black fog rolled, Gong Yu's face condensed. The reincarnation of the god looked down and laughed, "For many years, you have been studying Constantine's legacy, but you didn't know that I had already cracked the code and taken away the real treasure. I am his good friend, who can be faster than me? I watched you study hard all those years, and I really wanted to laugh."

Pretending to be dead is indeed a terrifying thing.

Especially since the person who faked his death was Gong Yu.

All we can say is that the Corrupted Grim Reaper is indeed omnipotent and chose a crucial person as his reincarnation, thus ushering in the era of the Three Golden Sages.

He successfully infiltrated the human world and made everyone go crazy.

"Yes, we are indeed stupid, but aren't you also making wedding dresses for others? Chu Shiqing, you should know best what that is."

Without even turning his head, the Vice Pope whispered, "Child, I must admit my mistakes to you. The bitter fruit we are facing today is actually caused by me. The survey of the Holy Mountain was actually a remedy. I once hoped that Long Que would not go to the Holy Mountain, but that was his destiny after all, and I could not stop him. At that time, I actually did not understand why he was willing to leave so willingly, allowing the church to make mistakes and allowing the gods to invade." He paused, "Later I understood, because he entrusted his will to you. He does not need to return to the peak, because you are the peak that has never been reached. I regretted that I failed to protect that child, so that he was seriously injured."

Lu Buer was silent for a moment. The survey of the holy mountain was a lifelong shadow for him. Even though he finally activated the creation ritual and forcibly reversed the outcome, he still hated it.

He hated himself.

He was too weak at that time.

If possible, he hoped to fight alongside that man.

"But what I regret most is that I concealed it from him. I told you that the church had already locked onto the reincarnation of the God of Origin many years ago. But at that time, I also longed to return to the top, and I also longed for the power of the Creation Ritual."

The Vice Pope said in a deep voice: "We have always maintained a high level of concern for Long Ling, but we did not know that a huge disaster was brewing silently. During the Holy Mountain survey by the Long siblings, we sent a very strong elite team to protect them, but they mysteriously disappeared in that mountain. Now that I think about it, it must be Gong Yu and Chu Shiqing who were secretly making trouble. When we realized that the team was wiped out, the tragedy had already happened... We were powerless to save it."

"In other words, you promoted him so many times later because you felt guilty." Lu Buer was protected by him and walked into the depths of the black fog. He saw the strong wind tearing through the deathly air in the sky, as if it was roaring.

"Yes, my conscience reminded me that I was guilty. That's why I indulged him and allowed him to clean up the Holy Family in Linhai City and kill people. I even revealed some of my investigations to him, intentionally or unintentionally, which led to his notoriety."

The Vice-Pope retreated step by step, leaving only his fierce back. "I thought this would calm his anger, but I was wrong. His murderous nature became more and more serious, and in the end even the gods and Buddhas could not resolve his murderous intent, which also brought him disaster. But what I feel most guilty about is that in the end... he had already guessed that I was also his enemy."

Lu Buer fell into silence. He was already very tired at this time. After suddenly learning these truths, he felt as if all the air was drained out of his body and he almost fell down.

The Vice Pope held him and said softly, "Even so, Longque still regarded me as his teacher. From that moment on, I suddenly realized that I was not a complete failure in those years. In the last journey of his life, he really reconciled with himself. Of course, the most important reason is that he met you. He believes in you. As long as he gives you time, you will continue to fulfill his unfulfilled wishes, because you are essentially the same kind of people."

The wind was getting stronger and stronger.

But the wailing in the wind became more terrifying.

The Vice-Pope had actually been using the sound of the wind to cover up the wailing sounds in the black fog, and was trying his best to annihilate the deathly aura spreading in the fog, but in the end he was unable to stop the invasion of that power.

Lu Buer still inhaled the death air, his consciousness became hazy, his body became stiff and heavy, and he even felt like he would turn into a corpse at any time.

If he was in his prime, this wouldn't be the case.

But now he is very weak and his destiny cannot function.

Not to mention the alien magic.

"Hold on, kid!"

The Vice-Pope shouted loudly: "The biggest regret in my life is that I didn't protect Longque well. So this time, I will never let anything happen to you. Although you are not my student, in my eyes, you are like his reincarnation."

Lu Fuji was suddenly stunned.

Because he felt the warmth behind him.

The old man placed his hands on his back, and a warm and generous force shone into his body like the spring sunshine, dispelling the deadness that had penetrated deep into his bones and bringing new life.

That is the power of divine magic.

As the person in power in the Akasha Holy Religion, the Vice Pope still holds some taboos that cannot be revealed, even though he has been sidelined due to certain actions in recent years.

For example, he can use certain means to forcibly and temporarily obtain divine power.

It's like the high priest temporarily giving his divine power to his students.

But what was really surprising was the vicar's aura.

An extremely powerful force is burning!
Lu Fuji is very familiar with that kind of power!

Burning Sky Bones!

boom!
The roar of a violent dragon echoed on the highway where night and day met. A huge red dragon was seen hovering between heaven and earth, spewing out endless fierce winds!

This is Ghost magic.

The Deputy Pope's alien magic.

No wonder Longque could go so far on the path of Ghost Magic. It turned out that the old man’s help behind the scenes all these years was indispensable. The old man was not as bad as he said. If he had not been seriously injured, he might have been qualified to create his own kingdom!
Oh, right, Lu Buer remembered.

The reason why the Vice-Pope was seriously injured and fell from his position was because he had covered the retreat of the army and ordinary people, but he could have chosen not to do so.

"After the Tree of Life lost its core, it has been trying to create a new one, but it has never met the requirements. In other words, there is more than one core of Omega. One is in the hands of the Celestial Organization, and the other was usurped by Medanzo. In other words, there may be two defective copies, but there is only one authentic one. This is why Gong Yu targeted you. Gong Yu believes that Medanzo took away the authentic one and gave you his own defective one."

The Vice-Pope looked back at him and suddenly smiled: "Remember this, don't be too nervous in the future. Gong Yu doesn't know where the real thing has gone."

Lu Buer felt that the old man's life energy was burning wildly, like a piece of rotten wood that caught fire after being struck by thunder.

The deputy pope turned around, and the spine on his back became red and hot. A violent burning wind was whistling on the highway, and the dark body of the Candle Day Dragon was roaring loudly.

"Initially, I was one of the executives of Aurora Technology, just like Sushi. After I broke out of my cocoon, I also became a soldier. But after I changed my job, I forgot my original intention. Why did I join the Akasha Holy Church at that time? Of course, it was to correct the mistakes of the Akasha Holy Church. But after many years, I gradually lost my original intention."

The Archdeacon looked up: "But now, I want it back."
