$1519 Purification
After leaving the Phantom Demon Territory, Raymond returned to the area where the talisman array was set up a day later.
Because they deviated from the direction of the Phantom Butterfly Jima returning to the village, Raymond let the Phantom Butterfly Jima leave first on the way.
Of course, in return for her hard work along the way, Raymond also specially selected two offensive and defensive magic tools for her.
However, Raymond did not allow her to take these two magic tools away, but asked her to master and integrate them on the spot before allowing her to leave.
When he returned to the area where he had positioned himself before, the lightning puppet and earth puppet he had left there had been defeated by the gathered resentful spirits, and even the talisman array base with its main components removed was completely destroyed and could no longer be used.
Hundreds of resentful spirits, after gathering together, seemed to be quite impressive.
In particular, the annihilation released by these resentful spirits completely wiped out the sparse vegetation here, and also made the trainee priest Adolf, who was allowed by Raymond to observe the surrounding situation, furious and roared to purify these evil things!
Raymond, who had completed all the affairs that needed to be done in the underworld, still had doubts about Adolf, a life form composed of pure light energy, so he also lifted the many isolation protections and barriers released by it, and nurtured him to carry out the so-called "purification" of these resentful spirits.
The resentful spirits who had already sensed and appeared in a commotion when Raymond arrived, went completely crazy when the trainee priest Adolf emerged from the isolation barrier.
The sharp and piercing whistling sound instantly echoed on the sea buckthorn plain.
These nearly invisible resentful spirits, one by one, shone with a reddish luster, and their speed suddenly increased as they rushed towards Adolf.
The tens of meters of distance that Raymond had left was actually crossed by these resentful spirits in a few breaths. Countless visible auras of annihilation shot towards Adolf, advancing towards him firmly like a thick barrier.
Adolf, who had escaped from the barrier, closed his eyes, crossed his fingers in front of his chest, squatted in a half-kneeling position, and muttered something as if he was praying.
As he spoke, a faint fluorescent light was sprinkled from the top of his head, surrounding and wrapping him, and also made these resentful spirits who swarmed and attacked, like hitting an iron plate, and were immediately bounced away.
Raymond, who was hidden more than ten meters behind him, completely restrained his breath at this moment, and the red light in his pupils flashed from time to time, scanning and recording through the chip.
Just a moment later, hundreds of vengeful spirits flew and circled around Adolf, and the reddish color became more and more intense and obvious in the airflow formed by Adolf, as if countless red ribbons surrounded and wrapped him.
And every vengeful spirit that touched the fluorescent light surrounding Adolf's body would become more and more intense and clear. After a while, only Adolf's vague figure could be seen surrounded by a large group of red light.
But Adolf, who was squatting on the ground, continued to chant, and his speech speed was getting faster and faster. Every syllable was extremely clear, but Raymond could no longer understand its content and meaning.
As time passed slowly, the light energy released by Adolf gradually led to the perception and gathering of dark energy in the environment, and gradually became huge.
At this time, the bodies of the vengeful spirits surrounding Adolf had completely revealed their shapes, and their whole bodies were red and looked extremely weird.
But at this moment, Adolf, as if he had finished praying, suddenly stood up, opened his arms and looked up to the sky, and shouted. "Great Lord of Holy Light, please use the power of thunder to bring down holy punishment, forgive these lost souls, and let them rest in peace..."
Adolf's words were clear and slow, but just after Adolf finished speaking, a flash of light suddenly appeared in the sky more than ten meters above his head, and then expanded outward to a diameter of ten meters in an instant, like a layer of light curtain, and from it there were countless light spots that looked like raindrops, which were released from the light curtain and slowly fell down.
The extremely pure light energy breath made Raymond in the distance even feel warm.
But when these light spots began to fall, the vengeful spirits surrounding Adolf seemed to be affected by some kind of force field, and their movement speed dropped sharply, appearing extremely slow.
One drop...
Two drops...
Three drops...
When the vengeful spirits at the top were touched by the light spots, their red bodies seemed to have no obstacles, allowing the light spots to penetrate their bodies, and then continued to fall.
However, any vengeful spirit whose body was penetrated by the light spots immediately dimmed in color, and it was as if it was imprisoned and could not move. Finally, under the penetration of a larger and denser number of light spots, it became virtual and gradually disappeared.
After these light spots fell to the ground, they also made the surface around Adolf become smooth. The originally dark land gradually released a faint white light, and then began to spread outward.
The silent changes were displayed in front of Raymond, but Raymond, who was keeping the surveillance, frowned more and more tightly, because the aura contained in these light spots made him feel a potential threat.
The offensive lasted only for dozens of breaths, and ended after all the resentful spirits were eliminated. However, the light curtain above Adolf's head did not disappear, but swayed and slowly sank like a curtain. After being touched by Adolf's raised hands, it dissipated and merged into his body.
During the entire offensive, Adolf, who was pious and relaxed, kept his eyes closed.
At this time, Raymond, who felt the speed of dark energy gathering in the environment, came to him and asked. "Is it over?"
Adolf, who trembled as if he was frightened, immediately opened his eyes.
But at this time, there was no emotion or feeling in his pupils. There seemed to be a tiny light spot in the deepest part of his pupils, which was rotating and shrinking inward.
The moment Raymond saw the light spot in his pupils, a very dangerous feeling made his pupils shrink.
"How could this happen! It feels like I was unconsciously glanced at by some extremely powerful creature. How powerful is the Holy Lord of the 'Holy Light Church' that Adolf believes in?"
Raymond thought so in his heart, staring closely at the light spot in Adolf's pupils. After it completely faded and could no longer be seen, he saw that Adolf's eyes, which were full of joy and comfort, had regained a little spirit.
However, when Adolf saw Raymond in front of him, the pious and comfortable expression before was immediately replaced by deep fatigue. He sat down and said, shaking. "I, I, I am exhausted..."
Feeling the sudden increase in the intensity of the dark energy swarming around him, Raymond immediately released the isolation barrier again, completely isolating Adolf's breath from the outside world.
At the moment when Adolf's breath was cut off, the whistling sound of the wind, which seemed extremely sharp before, slowed down, but these air currents containing rich dark energy still swirled around Adolf for a long time before slowly fading and dissipating.
Adolf, who was like a little fat man, could not feel the breath of the outside world, but he could still clearly see the shape and color of the air currents swirling and stagnating around him, so he looked angry and inexplicably angry.
After feeling that the dark energy in the environment would no longer have an effect on Adolf, Raymond asked in a voice transmission. "Could it be that as an apprentice priest of the Church of Holy Light, this is the ability he uses?"
"Such... ability?" Adolf repeated Raymond's words in a daze, and then his expression became angry. "Lord Raymond! The wrath of the Holy Light can only be released when it reaches the level of auxiliary priest! For an apprentice priest like me, this is already an extraordinary performance..."r1152
