The old priest who had swallowed Kalvetua's flesh and blood had a brilliant blue-green light in his eyes, and his originally distended abdomen grew even larger, as if the things inside were about to burst out at any moment!
Whoosh!
A mournful whimper came from his body, like a howling gale, instantly covering the entire ruin.
The sound was like a nightingale singing, very beautiful and pleasant to the ear, melodious and serene, as if penetrating flesh and blood, strangely acting on the soul.
Leyton's mind was momentarily dazed, and the next moment, his surroundings were dyed with a golden layer, dispelling all negative effects.
The already insane priest's body suddenly swelled, and slippery, sticky tentacles stretched out from beneath his priestly robe.
Leyton directly ignored him, leaning back, arms spread wide, as if embracing the Sun.
A magnificent, pure, blazing pillar of light descended from the sky, enveloping the entire hall, and the seawater sloshing in the hall instantly boiled, dyed with a faint golden hue, and the mighty Sun aura instantly filled the entire hall.
Whoosh~ Ah!
For a moment, all the sea god's believers in the entire hall let out mournful screams.
Their bodies were entangled by faint golden chains, unable to evade, only allowing the boiling seawater to continuously erode and melt their bodies.
The old sea god priest had turned into a pile of tentacles in a priestly robe; under the blazing light, the tentacles on his body continuously shriveled, and layers of skin cracked and peeled off, revealing the scarlet flesh beneath.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Klein simulated the sound of gunfire, creating air bullets that rippled the faint golden seawater, continuously impacting the tentacles that tried to rush over, blocking all of them.
In a short while, in the entire hall, except for the sea god priest who had turned into a pile of tentacles, the other Monsters formed by swallowing Kalvetua's flesh and blood gradually evaporated under the blazing light, merging with the seawater.
Sizzle Sizzle
Silver-white electric light erupted from the tentacles that had shed their outer skin; seemingly sensing danger, these tentacles lashed even more frantically towards Leyton and Klein.
Bang!
The tentacles carrying silver-white electric light slammed down hard, hitting a light barrier, making banging sounds that violently shook the surrounding seawater, stirring up layers of light waves.
"Unshadowed's 'Holy Armor' is a very useful Beyonder ability, and the secret techniques developed based on it are likewise," Leyton explained with a light chuckle.
As he spoke, faint blue light lingered in his eyes, and he pushed his hands forward forcefully.
The light barrier that had been separating them from the mutated and out-of-control sea god priest disintegrated, turning into rhombic light spots that rapidly moved forward, encircling the sea god priest and trapping it.
The characteristics of Readers seem to be more pronounced on him; is it because of his advancement to Prophet?
While contemplating, Klein nodded slightly and said in an even tone:
"You are very familiar with the Beyonder abilities of the Sun Pathway?"
Leyton raised an eyebrow slightly, his tone tinged with suspicion:
"Most of this comes from the knowledge collected by the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, perhaps from the God of Knowledge, or perhaps, the Church itself has Sun Pathway angels or Sealed Artifacts."
"knowledge... Do you need to hand over the Beyonder knowledge you analyze and master to the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom?"
Klein pondered and asked.
If it were other Churches, he wouldn't have this thought. For the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, which loves to teach and believes that knowledge is power, compiling and spreading knowledge should be something they are very willing to do.
"It's not mandatory, but as long as it doesn't involve Concealment or strongly contaminating information, we generally submit a copy to the Church. This can accumulate contributions and exchange for other knowledge or items we haven't mastered."
"However, such opportunities are actually not many. With long-term accumulation, the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom has already mastered a considerable amount of knowledge, it's just that most people don't know due to confidentiality levels and other reasons."
Leyton nodded gently in response.
As he spoke, he raised his right hand high, and light gathered in his hand, gradually forming a long spear that was extremely pure, extremely blazing white, seemingly composed of pure sunlight.
The next moment, he threw the blazing white long spear in his hand, piercing through the cage formed by the light spots, and landing on the already out-of-control and insane sea god priest.
The blazing white long spear instantly expanded, forming a miniature Sun that was extremely blazing white.
The entire hall was swallowed by blinding white light, and Klein subconsciously closed his eyes. This intense light and strong Sun aura made his Spirit Body feel very uncomfortable.
It felt as if he was gradually evaporating, slowly dissipating into the surrounding seawater.
No, this isn't just my feeling, my Spirit Body is really evaporating... A flash of realization crossed Klein's mind, and he immediately spread out his Spirituality to envelop himself, trying to resist this continuous evaporation.
A sensation of coldness appeared around him, largely blocking the dense Sun aura and blinding light.
Klein breathed a sigh of relief and reopened his eyes.
What met his gaze was a thick layer of ice crystals, dyed with dense, graffiti-like colors. These ice crystals were not bitingly cold; instead, they gave his Spirit Body a feeling of immersion.
In a moment, the ice crystals melted in the blazing light.
However, the blinding white that had covered the entire hall had also receded, and all the seawater in the original hall had evaporated, not even leaving behind water vapor.
The surrounding stone pillars and walls were severely damaged, leaving only the huge sea snake corpses that looked like they had been roasted, their color changing from blue-green to charred black, and rapidly crumbling.
On the floor in front of the two, there was also a scattering of ashes, and in the very center, like a distorted and coiled sea snake, blue-green light points continuously emerged from within.
Along with the light points precipitating from Kalvetua's body, they slowly flowed into the huge tooth.
At the locations where those sea god believers had been melted by the blazing light, there were also specks of light, either blue-green, or dark black, or bright like dawn, precipitating out.
These light points, along with the specks of light precipitating from Kalvetua's corpse, slowly merged into the huge tooth. The originally curved tooth was slowly straightening, and its color gradually turned translucent white.
"Wait a moment, the Beyonder characteristic here still needs some time to gather."
As he spoke, layers of starlight ripples spread around Leyton, dispersing the strong Sun aura in the hall.
"Okay."
Klein, whose Spirit Body had recovered, nodded gently.
His gaze swept around the hall, confirming there were no residual dangers... The danger I divined earlier wasn't from this ruin? Is it the Church of the Lord of Storms's "Sea King" who is about to arrive?
As he pondered, the entire hall was once again tinged with a faint gold.
Just as Klein was about to turn his head to ask, he saw the surrounding blue-green light suddenly accelerate, turning into a hurricane, surging towards the huge, bone-white tooth.
Kalvetua's body began to crumble faster, its flesh and blood quickly softening and emitting a putrid smell, like a puddle of mud.
A moment later, all the blue-green light poured into the huge tooth. After the light receded, the tooth, which was originally larger than an adult's arm, had disappeared, leaving only a short scepter with its end inserted into a stone pillar.
The top of the short scepter was inlaid with numerous tiny blue-green gems, some of which were tinged with dark black and dawn light.
"Don't take it yet."
Leyton spoke up, reminding Klein, who was about to approach.
He slightly raised his hand, scattering starlight. These lights encircled the short scepter, moving it out, and then rapidly condensed around it, forming a layer of translucent amber, carrying the short scepter as it flew into Klein's hand.
"It has a close connection with the sea god's believers. Unless you are at the Demigod level or your Spirituality is strong enough, it's very easy for it to directly collapse and lose control. Try not to use it outside of the gray fog."
Leyton reminded him.
His gaze swept around. All the Beyonder characteristics had been wrapped and integrated into this sea god scepter. There was nothing useful left in this hall.
Klein nodded gently and said:
"I understand. How should we distribute the spoils?"
He had originally thought that besides Kalvetua's Beyonder characteristic, there would be other gains here, but it turned out that all the Beyonder characteristics in this hall had converged into one.
As for the sea god's treasure, he didn't think Kalvetua, in such a state, could have any treasure.
He's a sea god, after all, how could he be so poor? Klein sighed silently in his heart.
Leyton's gaze fell on the sea god scepter encased in translucent amber, and he responded lightly:
"Just let me analyze this scepter. A Sequence 3 level Beyonder ability, and from the Storm Pathway, I finally don't have to always simulate Sun domain abilities anymore."
"I thought you preferred Sun domain Beyonder abilities," Klein tilted his head and casually replied.
"After all, they're so golden and flashy..."
Leyton glanced at Klein, finishing the thought he hadn't spoken aloud.
"Uh..." Klein was stunned for a moment. It's really annoying how thoughts are easily perceived in the Spirit World.
"Sun domain Beyonder abilities have a restraining effect on all evil, Fallen, and other domains."
"In combat, you don't have to worry too much about accidentally harming your allies, so it's indeed very convenient to use."
After a brief explanation, Leyton stepped towards the back of the hall.
