You became an emperor by letting me AFK.

Although he was extremely anxious, Zhang Zhongsi had long been accustomed to serving the emperor for so many years, so he instructed him:

“The High Priest is protected by divine power and we don’t need to worry about him. Follow me to the warehouse and destroy other important facilities at the same time.”

Inside the temple.

Led by Gegentana, the shamans continuously moved the books, packed them into boxes as quickly as possible, wrapped them in leather, and then poured water on them. This precious water could extinguish fires and wet clothes, but she believed that protecting the books was more important.

It records his hard work.

It contained not only intelligence gathered over many years from various tribes on the grasslands and information from the distant west, but also research on faith...

In Gögtana's eyes, this thing was more important than her life; it had to be saved.

"hurry up."

Urged on by the shamans, she moved quickly, but she was not idle either. Instead, she swept across the obstacles with a wizard's staff adorned with gold ornaments, managing to keep the road clear despite the powerful force.

However, this also allows a large amount of air to enter, making the fire even bigger.

"Damn it, I've been having the worst luck lately, I really need to ward off evil spirits."

Gengtana cursed under her breath as she clutched a thick notebook to her chest. It contained a wealth of research findings, a condensed version of a library, which could help her recall the knowledge. Having been exceptionally skilled since childhood, she could reconstruct it.

The notebook is a keepsake; it's a memento from a deceased family member, and at this moment, it's the most precious treasure.

The premise is that we get out alive.

Suddenly she felt the surroundings become quiet. She looked around at everyone and realized that they had all frozen in place. Then, they straightened up like springs.

With a crash, various books scattered all over the floor.

The text on it was like crawling insects, a completely blurred black mess that was impossible to read.

Instead, a polluting spiritual energy seeped into the shamans' seven orifices, turning their facial features black and accompanied by roars.

"die! "

Already polluted, they finally collapsed under psychological pressure, hollowed out by termites, and hysterically pounced. They didn't hesitate to strike their former colleague, Gegentana, with their canes.

The immense force would cause it to explode once it hit the head.

The Great Shaman, having fought and roamed the grasslands for so long, was no mere figurehead. Facing an attack by dozens of people, he turned the tables and brutally beat them. The two sides fought fiercely in the shattered and burning temple, and the battle continued.

However, the surrounding environment became increasingly cramped, and the ruins made it difficult to wield the slender wizard's staff.

Besides, you have to carry a heavy notebook in one hand.

"Go to hell!"

A fearless shaman lunged at Gegentana's waist, and she stomped her foot to steady herself, but more men pressed down on her.

With a thud, they tumbled into the temple's underground storage shed.

The fire raged, the oxygen was thin, and thick smoke billowed, choking her until her eyes watered. To make matters worse, she fell and hit the fire, suffering severe burns to her back; the searing pain made her lose consciousness.

We're getting further from the exit.

Gedentana glanced at the steps and knew her fate was sealed; she then faced the monsters with composure.

"I will free you before I die, so thank me."

PS

I've paid off the unpaid update for the bounty, but I'll try to update more frequently in the future to give back to my readers.

Chapter 76 Elevation of the Great Prophet (6K)

"You are the ones who deserve to die, and may you be forever banished from this world."

Faced with her contaminated colleague, Gergentana felt a pang of reluctance, but more than anything, she was resolute. Despite being severely wounded, she fought him to the death, each move deadly.

Bang, bang!

One monster after another had its body shattered, and the pollution, having lost its anchor, naturally dissipated.

Unfortunately, there were quite a few shamans inside the temple who had become vessels for the spirits, and they had come upon hearing the news, blocking the entrance to the basement and becoming completely crowded. Oxygen was being consumed rapidly, the intense heat of the fire was scorching the skin, and the thick smoke was suffocating.

She was exhausted after killing only a few people.

I'm so tired and sleepy.

Gedentana used all her strength just to barely keep her eyelids open, because once they closed, she would never wake up again.

She was in pain all over, but she didn't dare look at her body; she guessed there wasn't a single patch of good skin left.

Her prized figure and flowing black hair were probably beyond saving; there was no magic cure for this kind of burn, and her gruesome appearance made her unsuitable for preaching...

"This is such a hassle, I might as well just die."

Even so, Gergentana gripped her weapon tightly, determined to fight to the very last moment.

The only difference was that the girl put down her notebook; in the final moments of her life, she didn't want her belongings to become a burden, and instead tried with all her might—

boom!

A long spear pierced the wooden planks of the basement entrance buried in the ruins.

Then, unsurprisingly, it got stuck.

The dramatic yet abruptly halted action left the monsters bewildered—no, deeply terrified. For some reason, they were filled with fear of the being behind the wooden plank, and they trembled uncontrollably.

The next moment, amidst a crashing sound, a girl in silver armor with black and white hair leaped in.

Upon seeing this, monsters immediately howled and pounced on them.

She stepped back, clasped her hands, and then, using her waist as a pivot, lifted the enemy while simultaneously striking downwards with her palm, breaking his neck and decapitating him.

Facing a mid-range enemy, he delivers a high kick, followed by a lunge to dodge another person, while a side hook punch, accumulating in his arms, unleashes a thunderous sonic boom.

Thump, thump!

Amidst the heavy blows, the corrupted shamans perished one after another.

In the complex terrain of the fire-filled indoor combat, she chose hand-to-hand combat, her movements fluid and seamless, without a single superfluous step. Her mastery of both strength and flexibility reached its pinnacle, transforming it into a deadly art, unparalleled in its offensive power.

"You are High Priest Feng Tianyin?"

When the last monster fell, Gergentana asked the question that already had a known answer.

Seeing is believing; she is indeed tall and beautiful, with a heroic and valiant air, and an aloofness between her brows that is otherworldly.

Compared to my own pretentious mystification, the Heavenly Dao Agent truly possessed an otherworldly air, an aura transcending the mortal realm. It was simply hidden deep beneath a seemingly indifferent exterior…

"Thank you."

As soon as she finished speaking, she tilted her head and was about to fall down, but a hand grabbed her.

"According to the revelation of Heaven, I have come to save you."

A barely perceptible hint of jealousy flashed in Feng Tianyin's eyes. Without a word, she picked up Gegentana in her arms, carrying her very lightly.

The girl in his arms was already severely injured and could barely utter a single syllable, but she still gave him these words of advice:

"Book."

She picked up the notebook and placed it in the wounded soldier's arms, then rushed forward, running at full speed through the temple. This time, there were no obstacles, and she successfully passed through the temple library and hall.

Dozens of Daqian soldiers were splashing water at the entrance, with several friendly troops helping behind them.

Their support cleared a safe passage.

Although Zhang Zhongsi had found another job, he still took initiative. He couldn't really let the high priest go to the fire alone, otherwise his colleagues would talk nonsense. So he arranged for firefighters.

at the same time.

Having settled the warehouse and other facilities, Zhang Zhongsi quickly led his team back.

He dared not ask too many questions about the revelation concerning the will of Heaven, but he also had to be ready to provide assistance. Sure enough, he vaguely saw a figure leap out from the fire.

With a whoosh, Feng Tianyin burst forth from the ruins.

As expected, they were completely unharmed, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Logically speaking, the lack of oxygen and the damage from the smoke should have been ineffective, negligible in the face of divine power. Of course, the one in their arms wasn't so lucky.

The girl dressed as a shaman was covered in severe burns, her body charred black, barely breathing, like a candle flickering in the wind.

Who is this?

Suddenly, the entire Linchun fell silent, and a sense of solemnity rose in everyone's heart.

The heavens watched over this place, and even the volcanic ash subsided automatically, leaving it completely silent. The calamity that was once considered invincible in the eyes of mortals was completely removed.

【Gengtana, I have a mission for you】

The profound sound resounded throughout the heavens.

Everyone in the city, and even the barbarians who had retreated from afar, heard it. They were both shocked and envious, never expecting that Heaven would personally issue a sacred decree. But that was all they said; they didn't elaborate further.

The Great Qian Army's gaze fell on Feng Tianyin, and the specific details were certainly given to the High Priest.

“I am honored, I accept, and I follow the guidance of Heaven.”

The barely breathing Gergentana immediately declared that this was the only chance, and if she missed it, she would surely die.

"good"

Feng Tianyin nodded and immediately sat down on the ground, letting the shaman girl lie in her arms, her head resting on one arm, as if she were holding a big child.

Their eyes met and they understood each other perfectly.

Behind them burned a temple, and in the distance, extinguished lava flowed. Snow-capped mountains stood amidst a desolate landscape. Scattered ashes dotted the sky; everything appeared dilapidated, yet new life was also emerging.

The Daqian soldiers present all bowed in salute, deeply remembering this scene.

This image will undoubtedly be a key subject in many religious paintings in the future, destined to have a long and rich history.

"You will be promoted."

Feng Tianyin gently touched Gegentana's brow, and a surge of spiritual energy spread to her limbs and bones. It wasn't her power, but rather Xia He behind her using the miniature robot to manipulate the mechanism, prioritizing saving her life.

Sure enough, the girl's burns faded, and she was completely healed, with everything exactly the same, even her skin becoming more delicate.

In just a few breaths, her demeanor changed completely.

"Ahem!"

Breathing in fresh air relieved Gegentana's cough, which had been bothering her, and she felt better than ever before.
