Chapter 783 True Light (Three-in-One Subscription Request)
At the same time, Dreamy Lord was in his own kingdom, leaning lazily on a throne woven from dreams.

He was surrounded by a dreamlike world of light and shadow.

It is vast and boundless here, neither day nor night, but only colorful colors and flowing light, as gorgeous and changeable as a kaleidoscope.

The suspended islands are formed from the dream fragments of billions of lives. The glass-like ground reflects the galaxy, and every ray of light is the embodiment of thoughts.

The sky is a flowing rainbow of aurora, as if countless gorgeous silks are interwoven in the sky, with a group of palaces, both real and imaginary, floating in it. The columns are cast from rainbows, and stardust tassels hang from the eaves. Living beings here can create flowers with a thought and turn into dragons with a thought. The boundary between fantasy and reality is as vague as mist.

The earth is paved with countless twinkling stars. Every step people take here will cause ripples of starlight under their feet, as if they are walking on the Milky Way.

"He moved my chessboard."

The Dream Lord leaned on the throne, fiddling with a glass bead formed from a human's dream with his fingertips, while observing the real world with his spiritual consciousness.

An unpredictable smile appeared on the corner of the god's lips: "Mengli, go and give some space to Da Ri's old subordinates, just as a return gift."

Beside this ancient god, a breathtakingly beautiful female priest dressed in a glittering long dress with a beautiful appearance and temperament suddenly had a slightly changed expression.

This contemporary Saint of Dreams and Grand Astrologer Mengli bowed and asked, "Does the Divine One intend to relax control over the subordinates and followers of the Great Sun Celestial Lord? To what extent does the Divine One intend to do this?"

Most of the followers and subordinate gods of the Great Sun in the past were suppressed by the gods and could not return from the sky.

However, that Lin Rui not only seized part of the control of the artificial sky, but also started a war with the God in the sky, which was undoubtedly a provocation to the God.

Mengli thought of Lin Rui's arrogance and even his cold eyes that revealed a strong murderous intent in the sky.

However, the degree of this "gap" is difficult to grasp.

The Great Sun Lord has been suppressed by the God for many years, and there is a grudge between the two sides.

Once the Great Sun Lord truly returns, he will probably become an enemy of the God, and then he will be more troublesome than Lin Rui.

"Are you worried that Lin Rui's power foundation is not yet solid, and he might be unable to withstand the joint attack of the subordinate gods and their followers under the command of the Great Sun Heavenly Venerable?"

The corner of Dreamy Heavenly Venerable's mouth curled up slightly, and with a flick of his fingertips, the dazzling glass bead instantly transformed into a streak of light, quietly dissipating into the invisible. His voice was leisurely and lazily, as if he were discussing a trivial matter. "Don't underestimate this kid Lin Rui. He is full of mysteries, as if an inexplicable mysterious force is secretly fueling his growth. His rapid growth is simply astonishing. I even secretly speculate—"

At this point, his words stopped abruptly, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "The martial spirit of 'one' that he mastered is even more extraordinary. He has entered the realm of immortality and can even control the faith and will of billions of people, gathering them into a tremendous force of unity. He has the magic of unity and sincerity, but he can transcend it and not suffer any backlash.

"This boy has now grown into a fully fledged warrior. He held back during the Battle of Sky Curtain and didn't give it his all. The Battle of Beisheng was undoubtedly a major turning point in his destiny. I'm curious: what extent can he achieve? Can he break free from the predetermined trajectory of fate?"

Mengli frowned in thought, then asked softly, "So, the God thinks this plan might be out of control?"

Dreamy Lord's face twitched slightly. He did feel a little out of control now, but he didn't want to admit it.

"Mengli, the Sky Curtain can only accommodate a limited number of gods. Even if the remnants of the Great Sun are released, what will happen? How can the gods tolerate this?"

He chuckled softly, an elusive glint in his eyes. "I'm just stirring up the chess game a little, making them attack each other, just for fun. If Lin Rui can truly defeat the forces under the command of Great Sun Heavenly Venerable, then he does have some extraordinary qualities, and one day he might be able to add more variables to this boring world."

But if Great Sun's followers and followers defeat Lin Rui, then everything will simply return to the past. For me, there will be no loss. The world's situation is like the illusion of this dream kingdom of God. It seems unpredictable, but in fact it is completely under my control. Lin Rui, Great Sun, are just pawns in this chess game.

Mengli frowned, feeling that God's evaluation of Lin Rui was too high.

Can this boy really defeat Da Ri and the seven generations of leaders?
However, she still knelt and bowed: "I understand, God! I will arrange it right away."

Mengli already understood Menghuan Tianzun's thoughts and knew what to do.

Although she herself thought that God thought too highly of Lin Rui, she still decided to faithfully carry out God's instructions.

God's plans are never simple, and every word he says contains countless profound meanings.

As she turned and left, her long skirt fluttered in the starlight, as if she had merged into this dreamy world.

Dreamy Heavenly Venerable watched her back, a meaningful smile curling up at the corner of his mouth. He murmured softly, his voice as ethereal as a dream: "Lin Rui, what is hidden in you? Is it the truth? Or something else?"

In this divine kingdom of interwoven light and shadow, Dreamy Heavenly Venerable's figure gradually blurred, as if merging with the dream. His thoughts flowed like flowing water, as if observing the reflections of countless worlds.

※※※※

When Lin Rui's fleet sailed with the help of curvature, tearing through the earth like a steel torrent and slowly sailing into the underground farm of the headquarters of the Church of Light, the entire space was instantly shrouded in a shocking atmosphere.

The magnificent scene shocked and stunned all the assembled priests and the holy army. They all looked over with eyes full of astonishment and disbelief.

The underground farm is extremely vast, stretching thousands of miles from east to west and from north to south.

But when this fleet of 16000 warships entered, the entire underground space seemed to be filled, giving people a great sense of oppression.

The huge warships, shining with a cold metallic luster and stretching for hundreds or even thousands of meters, were lined up in an orderly manner, stretching as far as the eye could see.

Their cold metal hulls are engraved with complex runes and energy circuits, emitting powerful energy fluctuations. They seem like giant beasts from another mysterious world, or like moving fortresses, giving people a great sense of oppression.

Among them, 115 battleships and high-speed battleships covered with Pangu alloy armor are more like the metal Leviathan in mythology. The Tianjixing runes flowing on the surface of the ship occasionally light up with a strange purple light. The nano-repair layer moves like a living thing in the gaps of the armor. The energy ripples caused by the rotation of the main gun array make the space appear with water-like folds.

The lights of these warships illuminated the dome structure of the underground farm in great detail, causing everyone in the Guangming Hall to close their eyes unconsciously.

Six million nine hundred thousand priests stood on the edge of the main altar's warships, staring at them intently, their hearts filled with doubt and disbelief.

All the divine soldiers who protected the religion were also shocked by the scene before them, with blank eyes. These well-trained warriors who could charge fearlessly on the battlefield could not help but feel awe in the face of this spectacular scene.

They quietly tightened their grip on the weapons in their hands, crouched down, and took a defensive stance.

Although they had already informed their superiors that a fleet of demonic ships would arrive soon to carry them to conquer South Continent, the powerful war weapons before them still made them feel wary.

The divine messengers, the Dharma Kings, the red-robed chief priests and a group of high-ranking priests stood at the front, their expressions solemn, with a hint of complex emotions in their eyes.

"Is this...the fleet of God?" Zhao Chongling, the messenger of the God of Wealth, asked in a low voice, with a hint of trembling in his voice.

Zhao Chongling thought about the various transactions he had done with Lin Rui through Lin Hao's mediation, and the feeling in his heart was simply indescribable.

The Church of the God of Light, headed by His Majesty the Ming King, is doing business with the industries under His Majesty the Ming King through the mediation of an outsider. Isn't this just transferring money from one hand to the right hand?

An indescribable sense of absurdity surged in Zhao Chongling's heart, and his eyes were filled with bitterness and helplessness.

He was so proud of himself before, thinking that he had cooperated with the Forest Group to open up trade channels with the Demons, which would allow him to expand resources for the sect and enhance its strength. But in the end, everything was arranged by His Majesty the Ming King and was under his control.

Zhao Chongling's eyes swept across the huge warships, and he was amazed and awed at the same time.

This is the fleet mobilized by the Lord of Purity, and it is also part of the strength of His Majesty the Ming King!

"A total of 16000 Heavenly Demon warships and armed merchant ships, and at least 7800 Dragon Transformation cultivators. Is this the strength His Majesty Ming Wang possesses on the Heavenly Demon side? Honestly, I've never seen a fleet of this scale. I can't imagine how much resources and manpower it must have taken to create it."

Fang Junhao, the Demon Suppressing Divine Envoy, shook his head. "I also find it hard to imagine that one day we'll be fighting against the extraterritorial demons. Also, is it really okay for us to just let them enter the underground farm?"

"Most of these items are made using various machine tools, machinery, and automated robots. The manpower involved is less than you might think. The so-called 'industry' of the Extraterritorial Demons is far more powerful than you might imagine."

The God of Wisdom Xiao Xingyi smiled bitterly. He knew that although Fang Junhao was the God of Demon Suppression, he actually had no alien body and had never been to the Earth Federation and had never seen the sight of the fourteen Heavenly Demon Homelands.

"As for the extraterritorial demons..." Xiao Xingyi paused, his gaze sweeping across the massive fleet before him, his tone filled with mixed emotions. "They're fighting for our Divine Religion this time. They're not the demons we imagine. Their civilization is completely different from ours, but they possess wisdom and power as well. Your Majesty Ming Wang is able to command them to serve our Religion, which means these extraterritorial demons are also under your control."

As for why His Majesty Ming Wang allowed these warships to enter the underground farm, it was naturally because His Majesty was no longer worried about the location of the farm being exposed.

Under normal circumstances, who would dare to invade the territory directly suppressed by a god?

However, Xiao Xingyi had another thing in his mind that he hadn't said yet: their 'Ming Wang' might also be the so-called extraterritorial demon.

Fang Junhao also realized this, his brow furrowed, his heart filled with conflict and unease. He had always considered the extraterritorial demons enemies, a threat to the Church of Light. Now, he was forced to fight alongside them, and even accept a demon as their "Ming Wang." This was a bit difficult for him to accept.

"The Holy Thunder and Tribulation Fire have chosen His Majesty, the 'Ming Wang'!" Gong Bonan, the Sage Lord of Light, put his hands behind his back, his gaze determined, his tone steady and powerful. "Then no matter who he is or what his identity is, he is the thunder that splits the darkness, burns the filthy fire, and illuminates the world. This is our doctrine of light and our unwavering faith."

"You two, many of those fleets are from the Heavenly Demon's Bright King Cult, and they share our faith in light." Dharma King Bai Xishi, his hand on his sword, sneered, "Your Highness's actions since ascending the throne have been worthy of the followers of the Divine Cult and the Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire."

When Bai Xishi had previously judged through clues that their "Ming Wang" was most likely Lin Rui, a human from the Earth Federation, he had been filled with anxiety and hesitation.

However, his alien body and his daughter who was possessed by the devil, everything they witnessed in the Demonic Land, and what His Majesty Ming Wang did in the Federation, made his faith even more devout.

This person is not only the 'hope' of Tianjixing, but also the 'light' of the Earth Federation.

Everyone fell silent upon hearing this, and fell into deep thought.

His Majesty the Ming King not only opened up underground farms and innovated financial management, but also increased the financial resources of the Divine Religion by dozens of times through the improvement of the "Blood of Light", sweeping away the difficulties of the past. He also opened up trade channels, allowing them to obtain large quantities of medicines, machinery and supplies from the Demonic Homeland, greatly increasing the strength of the Divine Religion.

He also made drastic changes to church affairs, selected talented people, and carefully cultivated a total of 6.9 million grassroots priests in the main temple. He also eliminated the hidden dangers left by Elder Wanxin, eliminated the sect's long-standing internal troubles and contradictions, and once again united the people's hearts. In one fell swoop, he reversed the hundreds of years of decline of the Church of Light. His achievements were remarkable, and he can be regarded as the most wise and powerful leader after the seven generations of leaders.

It even allowed them to see the "light" and "hope" of Tianji Star!
"The holy thunder shakes the nine heavens, the blazing fire of catastrophe cleanses the world. Have pity on the people of this world, who are filled with worries and sufferings. All things return to unity and light, and all things in life illuminate the universe. The King of Light comes to the world to break the darkness, and all things are renewed and the world is wide—"

The Warring Heaven Dharma King Fei Yi's eyes were blazing. "Your Highness Ming Wang is the Lord of Purity, the Abyss of Heaven above the sky! It is clear that Your Highness is the 'light' prophesied by the doctrine of light. Now, this light is about to shine on Nanzhou. This is a crucial battle for our Church of Light, and we cannot afford to lose!"

He was pulled out of the dark hell by His Majesty Ming Wang himself. Not only did he personally experience the vast divine power of His Majesty Ming Wang, but he also saw the true "light".

The White-browed Dharma King Yin Wansui had a silent expression and held the knife at his waist without saying a word.

In terms of devotion to the Light, no one here surpassed him. And at this moment, everyone suddenly realized that the power and foundation of the Ming King within the sect had become so strong.

"Everyone, board the ship according to the scheduled plan!"

The Dharma King Bai Xishi saw that the warships had stopped steadily, the curvature field had completely dissipated, and all the warship hatches slowly opened with a low roar, as if a giant beast had opened its mouth. He immediately shouted an order, and the sound echoed like thunder in the space of the underground farm.

Although the numerous priests and the guardian soldiers were full of doubts and were whispering and discussing with each other, they still took quick action under the repeated urging of the high-ranking priests. They divided into several small teams and boarded their respective warships in an orderly manner.

The plan for boarding the ship was formulated by the Dharma King Bai Xishi, the Dharma King Yin Wansui, the White Eyebrow Dharma King, and Xue Lingxue and Zhu Youheng from the Forest Group.

Both of them have variants in the Earth Federation and have a full understanding of the military system and warships of the Federation. They know how many people can be deployed on a warship and how to maximize the combat power of the "Concept Macro Force Field". Therefore, the whole process is orderly, tense and orderly.

There was a little confusion after boarding the ship because the scene inside the warship was far beyond everyone's cognition, making everyone surprised and uncomfortable.

As far as the eye can see, there are silver-white metal walls on all sides emitting a cold luster, as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the slightly astonished faces of everyone.

Strange energy light bands flowed on the corridor. These light bands were like nimble snakes, winding along the walls. In the middle of them were engraved a large number of mysterious runes shining with platinum light, and a large number of humans shuttled among them.

Under the guidance of some humans, they entered several rooms one after another. Various sophisticated instruments were placed in the rooms. The complexity of their structure and exquisite design were astonishing. There were countless flashing light screens inlaid around them, and various complex instrument panels and indicator lights dotted on them, displaying various videos and data streams.

This surprised and disturbed all the priests and warriors of the Guardian Army, but they soon calmed down under the soothing and suppression of the high-ranking priests.

At this time, Lin Rui was supervising the many mechanical engineers of the Divine Religion's main temple, the "Mechanical Temple", to move a total of five improved versions of the glorious altars, one large and four small, onto the battleship.

This is part of Lin Rui's plan. The Forest Group has five armed merchant ships that have been specially modified for these glorious altars. Their defense capabilities have also been specially enhanced, and they are almost comparable to the most powerful battleships.

The five improved Glorious Altars can also strengthen their conceptual macro-force fields to the highest intensity.

After losing the illumination of the Glorious Altar, some plants in the underground farm might undergo large-scale magical changes, but Lin Rui was well prepared.

The reason why he started the Sky Curtain War at this time was because the various high-value spiritual plants and the first batch of blood of light planted on a large scale in the headquarters had been harvested, and the remaining parts were of little value.

This can also be regarded as a biological experiment, and perhaps some valuable varieties can be found in this large-scale magical transformation.

Next to him at this moment, there was a huge alloy cage ten meters high, in which an enchanting figure was nailed to a cross.

That was none other than the 'Fate-Weaving Princess' Su Luoli, who was escorted here by No. 1 and No. 13.

"Tell me," Lin Rui, wearing Hidden Dragon Battle Armor, crossed his arms and calmly watched the busy mechanical engineers operating various sophisticated instruments. "What's so important that you absolutely must see me in person?"

Su Luoli's eyes were fixed on Lin Rui, and there was a complex look in her eyes, both scrutiny and curiosity.

The power of her bloodline allows her to sense every subtle change around her, and even glimpse part of the future. The reason why Su Luoli is known as the 'Fate Weaving Concubine' is because her silk thread can control and weave the fate of others to a certain extent.

And at this moment, she is using this unique perception ability to explore Lin Rui's essence.

With every heartbeat, Su Luoli could feel a vast and boundless power emanating from Lin Rui, which was the divine power unique to an existence beyond the ordinary.

This power is not simply a sense of oppression, but contains a deep and pure hope and light, as if it can penetrate all the darkness and confusion in the world.

It was like warm sunlight falling deep into Su Luoli's heart. She felt her soul enveloped by an unprecedented tranquility, as if she were immersed in a peaceful glow. In this glow, all pain, fear, and anxiety were soothed.

The power of her blood began to flow in her body, like trickles of water gathering into rivers, lakes and seas, gradually resonating with the divine power emitted by Lin Rui.

Su Luoli couldn't help but narrow her eyes. The person in front of her was exactly the hope she was looking for - definitely not the so-called Lord of Hope!

"The true light lies beyond the sky, in the realm of emptiness, beyond pain and despair!"

Su Luoli's lips curled up slightly: "This is a prophecy from a Tenth Realm Astrologer. I know where he is, and this person knows the method and path to enter the Kingdom of Truth. This is what I want to tell you."

Lin Rui was stunned when he heard this, and then fell into deep thought.

The kingdom of truth?

He then nodded slightly, his eyes deep: "I hope you didn't lie to me. We can discuss this in detail after the battle in Nanzhou is over."

Lin Rui instinctively felt that this so-called 'Kingdom of Truth' was extremely important to him.

However, the battle in Nanzhou soon will be a showdown that concerns his fate and life and death.

The Great Sun Lord had already laid a huge net covering the sky over there, waiting for him to step into the trap.

If he cannot overcome this difficulty, everything he has now will come to nothing, not to mention exploring the kingdom of truth.

Before the end of this battle, Lin Rui does not want to be distracted at all. He must go all out to face this life-and-death battle.

※※※※

At this time, at a port south of Zhongzhou Iron Island, the dark sky was being split by scarlet and blue tail flames. A total of 127 Sky Demon warships tore through the clouds like steel behemoths and slowly descended.

The Divine Power Dharma King stood at the harbor dock. He was a burly figure, his muscles as if carved from rock. He bowed solemnly and said, "Niu Tao respectfully welcomes the two deputy leaders who have come from afar. I wonder what urgent matter the headquarters has that has us mobilize so many people?"

"How should I know why the headquarters suddenly issued such a ridiculous decree?"

Monk Wanyan, wearing a fiery red robe, flew down from the sky.

The corners of his robe fluttered in the wind, leaping like flames, like a walking fire god. The anger and dissatisfaction in his eyes could be transformed into materialized flames. "Suddenly, we are asked to gather all the elite troops above the fourth realm and assemble in your Iron Island Diocese. This is simply nonsense! The situation in several dioceses of the Great Liao is already tense, and now you are pulling troops here. It's like destroying the Great Wall!"

Niu Tao frowned upon hearing this. "Two Vice-Masters, I'm also very confused by this matter. This time, the order from the headquarters came so suddenly, and our Iron Island and the headquarters' other communication channels have been completely cut off. We can't contact any of the headquarters' leaders. There must be something fishy going on! Could it be that something happened inside the headquarters?"

He had always wanted to lead the Iron Island Diocese to independence. Later, when the new Ming King came to the throne, he not only relied on the recognition of the Glorious Altar and the Holy Thunder Fire to increase his reputation in the sect, but also gradually reversed the decline of the Divine Religion, which gradually gave up his desire for independence.

However, what happened at the headquarters today made him extremely angry.

This time, several dioceses of the Liao and Wei dynasties only mobilized elite martial artists and priests above the fourth realm, but their Iron Island needed to mobilize all priests and religious guards, as well as believers above the second realm.

At this time, Wan Lei Yuanjun also flew down from the sky. She was wearing silver-blue armor, and the power of thunder and lightning was faintly surrounding her body. Her face was cold and her brows were furrowed.

She exchanged a look of surprise and suspicion with Monk Wanyan, then nodded slightly and said, "It's indeed possible. This is definitely not an ordinary matter. The headquarters is presided over by the Sage Master of Light Gong Bonan, the Envoy of Wisdom Xiao Xingyi, the Envoy of Judgment Zhuang Fatian, and the Envoy of Good Fortune Zhao Chongling. They are always cautious in their actions and rarely issue such a major decree without any explanation, and without the signature of the Vice-Master Regent."

She was also very annoyed about the headquarters' orders.

However, what worried Wan Lei Yuanjun was that all her communication channels with the Beisheng Diocese were also cut off.

What exactly is going on?

"Let's wait a while. We'll find out the truth after we meet with the people from the headquarters."

"I think this is most likely the work of His Highness the 'Ming Wang'." Monk Wan Yan snorted coldly, a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes. "He's just a puppet supported by the Invincible Dharma King, yet he dares to give us orders. This is simply outrageous!"

"Deputy Sect Leader Wanyan, be careful with your words! His Royal Highness Ming Wang is of noble status, wise and capable, and holds a high reputation within the sect. We must not criticize him without reason."

Wan Lei Yuanjun shook his head, thinking that this leader was not as bad as Wan Yan Jushi said.

In the past two years, the revival of the religion has been visible to the naked eye, and the contemporary Ming Wang has made great contributions.

What's more -

Wan Lei Yuanjun looked up at the sky and saw the ninth abyss appearing on the sky.

She has some arrangements in the Demonic Homeland and has close ties with some people in Purgatory. She recently learned some information that she found quite absurd.

Mr. Wan Yan disagreed. He had a look of contempt on his face and wanted to say something, but swallowed it back when it was on the tip of his tongue.

He had made up his mind anyway. If it wasn't the work of that 'Ming Wang', then it would be fine. But if it was, then he would definitely teach this guy a lesson!
This boy has been sitting on the throne of Ming Wang for more than two years, and perhaps he has accumulated some power. However, does he think that with his cultivation and strength, he can make changes in the sect and order them around?

At this moment, a low roar suddenly came from the sky, as if the heaven and earth were shaking.

The three of them looked up at the same time, and saw that the originally dark night sky was torn apart above the sky, and countless brilliant rays of light burst out from the cracks, like the Milky Way pouring down, illuminating the sky above the entire port, as well as the area within a hundred miles around.

Immediately afterwards, huge warships slowly emerged from the cracks, their hulls flashing with a cold metallic luster, runes and energy circuits flowing on the surface of the ships, emitting powerful energy fluctuations. These warships fell from the sky like steel behemoths, densely packed like a steel cloud, covering the entire sky.

The various star-destroying cannons carried on these Sky Demon warships are densely packed like a forest. Each one is as huge as a mountain, like the arms of an ancient demon god, extending from the sides or top of the ship. Their guns made of special alloys are covered with mysterious and complex runes, and dark blue and scarlet energy flows between the runes, as if moving on the guns like living things.

As the warship slowly landed, the air in the harbor seemed to freeze, so oppressive that it made people breathless.

"This is?"

Mr. Wan Yan couldn't help but widen his eyes, and the shock on his face could no longer be concealed.

He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but found his throat dry and no words came out.

Niu Tao's expression was as solemn as steel. Was that massive demon fleet related to the headquarters?
They clearly sensed at least twenty thousand powerful auras and blood within these warships, originating from the Dragon Transformers and their war dragons. These auras and blood converged like an invisible wave, crashing over them in wave after wave, choking them.

At the same time, a vast divine power descended from the sky, as dazzling as the scorching sun and as heavy as Mount Tai!
Rays of brilliant golden light shone through the gaps between the warships, like golden swords piercing the earth.
