Chapter 214 Four Dukes, Four Divine Eyes

After hesitating for a long time, Lin Ling still did not choose to hold the hand of the white-haired girl.

No one can guarantee what will happen after you hold on to it.

If there really is a Siren Empire located here, then it should have been discovered by now.

But no matter what, he was determined to venture into this dangerous place.

"It seems you don't trust me. Please follow me and I will lead you into this place. Otherwise, you will be repelled by the barrier."

After seeing that Lin Ling did not choose to reach out, the white-haired girl did not continue to persuade Lin Ling, but instead chose to lead the way.

Lin Ling had sensed the barrier just now, so they hadn't lied to him about that.

But whether he will be repelled is hard to say, after all, his innate talent is the world's strongest magic decipherer.

"No thanks, I'll take another route."

After saying that, Lin Ling immediately disappeared.

He didn't want to come into contact with such a strange thing on the deep seabed; there might be some kind of trap there.

Lin Ling went around in a big circle and finally chose to enter the barrier from the spot where she had just arrived.

The magic circuit skillfully infiltrated the barrier, much like a locksmith sensing the structure inside a keyhole with a wire, patiently and meticulously, finally tearing a gap in the barrier in one go, just big enough for him to squeeze in.

Upon entering, the barrier repaired itself, filling the opening, while a faint smell of blood lingered in the air.

But when Lin Ling looked around, all he saw was a much larger expanse of ruins and broken walls, with not a single corpse in sight.

Where is this faint smell of blood coming from?

Moreover, upon entering this place, his intuition told him that it was dangerous.

The danger was so intense that he couldn't help but become fully focused and tense, his palms even sweating slightly.

The ruins were scattered haphazardly on the ground, buried deep in the sand. From the cross-section, it looked as if they had been broken off by some brutal force.

It's as if a great war once raged here, destroying the civilization that once stood here.

Not far from the landmark given on the note, a huge ruin altar, resembling an ancient arena, soon appeared before Lin Ling's eyes.

The ancient and historical atmosphere is overwhelming, as if it wants to take him back to that era.

"Is the landmark located inside the altar? It looks like going in would trigger a boss battle."

The danger was undisguised. As they approached the altar, the already frigid temperature plummeted, and a storm seemed to swirl around it, waiting for the next prey to arrive.

Step into the giant altar and let yourself be enveloped by the ancient aura.

Spatial magic still blocked the seawater, but the pressure from the water was getting stronger and stronger, causing Lin Ling's magical energy to be slowly depleted.

However, this amount of exertion was nothing to him.

The majestic altar stands perfectly outside of time, every stone pattern as clear as ever, as if isolated from the torrent of time by some mysterious force.

Looking up, the entire sky transforms into a giant vortex of stars, with billions of stars swirling in the dark blue currents.

It wasn't an ordinary night sky; it was as if someone had poured an entire sea of ​​stars into the eye of a storm, the dazzling starlight intertwining with the chaotic undercurrents to create a dizzying celestial canopy. Occasionally, a shooting star would streak across the vortex, its trail of light instantly swallowed by the eddy.

Within that stellar storm, several powerful forces could be faintly sensed dormant. Turning her gaze from the mysterious stellar storm to the center of the altar, Lin Ling immediately spotted several familiar faces.

Vahm, and the mad priest.

The two stood there in the deep sea, as if the enormous water pressure had no effect on them.

"Long time no see, Lin Ling. I've been training hard since I lost to you last time, but it seems you've improved even faster." Vam greeted Lin Ling warmly, as if he were a long-lost friend.

"The sins of sinners must be cleansed, and this time, I will truly grant you the flame of purification." The mad priest spoke in words that no ordinary person could understand, as always.

That devout posture, on the contrary, instilled even more fear in people.

A morbid belief will only create the most insane of the insane.

"Vam, are there only the two of you here? Why don't you invite the other two to come out and meet us?" Lin Ling spread his senses and sensed two other life forms from Vam's shadow and outside the altar.

"The same powerful sensory perception as always," Vam remarked.

The next second, a shadow pillar rose from Vamu's shadow. As the shadow dispersed, a strange figure appeared, wearing a bird-beak mask, his whole body wrapped in black, crawling like a spider with his limbs touching the ground. Outside the altar, Princess Silverscale swam in, swaying her gracefully curved fish tail.

"They are all victims, and one of them was not human."

Vam and the others made no attempt to conceal their auras. Four powerful auras, so strong that they caused the seawater to ripple, pierced through the water pressure and pointed directly at the sea surface.

Including Mu Wangying and the other two, there were six victims and seven dukes, which means there is still one duke who has not appeared.

“The Pope has decreed that if you want to decipher Ding Yumin’s hint, you must get past us first. To be honest, I also think this is despicable. Many against one is not in accordance with the etiquette of holy battles,” Vam said.

"Wam, you're stupid. Don't you think you can win alone?"

The bird-beaked monster's voice sounded like the cutting sound of sawing wood, even intermittently, which was irritating to listen to.

“The sinners are powerful. As long as we can purify evil and fight together, it is indispensable,” the mad priest chimed in.

Their words were laced with sarcasm towards Vam, after all, Vam was the only one among them who had ever lost in their lifetime.

The other two who lost are already dead.

"That posture... is it that of a sea god?"

Lin Ling looked at Princess Silver Scale. Her noble and elegant humanoid appearance was very much in line with the high-ranking beings among the ocean gods, and she probably held a high position among the gods.

Therefore, it seems that the Black Church is not an organization composed entirely of humans, which actually makes things more complicated.

He was quite curious about how the Pope of the Black Papacy had managed to bring these people together and make them so loyal to him.

"A bunch of barbarians who don't understand the sacred meaning of battle." Although Vam didn't want to admit it, he wasn't stupid enough to think that he could defeat Lin Ling after working hard to train.

When he lost to Lin Ling, the opponent was only at the Super Rank, but now he has reached the Forbidden Spell Rank.

For a peerless prodigy like Lin Ling, once he loses, winning again is harder than landing on the moon.

For the sake of the greater good, he could no longer adhere to the sacred war rituals.

"Don't blame me, Lin Ling, this is also your respect and recognition." After saying that, Wam took something out of his pocket.

The other three dukes made similar movements, and the four familiar auras immediately caused Lin Ling's pupils to shrink.

Four divine eyes?!
　The plot is so hard to come up with!
