However, it has finally come to light now.

“Saint’s Potion!” Nemus recognized the item immediately upon seeing the fluctuations in its aura.

Gotthard brought back most of the old pastor's previous research materials and final research results to the church.

Although Gotthard and Gilliman belonged to different factions and had always been at odds, they had cooperated on many issues.

For example, the advancement of Rhine, and the development of the Saint's Elixir.

In this situation, the church would naturally be able to develop some useful 'holy medicine'.

Although this potion cannot directly transform a 'holy son' into a saint, it can provide saints with a large amount of stable high-energy energy, including a significant amount of free energy.

It is an extremely good golden medicine, whether for the 'Holy Son' or for a failed Holy Son like Rhine.

“I have said long ago that this sacred wish will surely succeed.”

"This future was already determined by my bloodline abilities!"

“From beginning to end, you had no chance of winning.”

As a failed holy son, why was Rhine able to gain such strong support? Why was he able to master forbidden divine arts? Why did he hold a superior position in Tailwind Town?

All of this is because of his bloodline.

Although the Niton family of Baiwei Town is a branch, after the Holy Son experiment, the Rhine bloodline has reached its limit.

The story of St. Nitton became the basis for the Sacred Wishes ceremony.

God's gift made his decision even more important.

It landed here.

Throughout the battle, Rhine didn't actually use this bloodline characteristic much, because he devoted most of his bloodline power to Holy Wish.

The bloodline of the Niton family and the Holy Will have some special interaction, which is why Rhine is so confident.

Because the future success of the sacred wish is already secured.

Since the sacred wish has been fulfilled, the divine obstacles that hindered the process of fulfilling the sacred wish will inevitably be removed.

In this situation, whether it's the Golden Seed of Rhine who originally lacked the confidence to complete their ascension due to the Holy Son Project experiment, or others who achieved some special breakthrough, it's all a result of collapsing towards a predetermined future of victory.

This is why Rhine said that it was Nemes who helped him reach the Golden Throne.

With such a formidable lineup, Rhine thought they could easily defeat Nemus. Once they did, the future of Holy Will would be set, and the power from that predetermined future would be gone.

Fortunately, Nemus was powerful enough that without the intervention of a Gold Saint, there was basically no way to truly defeat him.

Thus, the holy potion reacted perfectly with him.

At that very moment, Rhine, the abandoned Holy Son of the Holy Son Project, ascended to the Golden Throne and became a Golden Seed!

Chapter 275 Tripartite Agreement (Thanks again to the generous donor, Zhu Feng)

A surging aura, carrying the majesty of gold, spread outwards.

Rhine's entire body was shimmering with golden light at that moment.

The body's stats are rapidly increasing through the process of sublimation.

The value increased rapidly from the original ninety-something.

However, it eventually stopped when it reached 145.

As he advanced to Gold rank, various characteristics began to coalesce within Rhine's body.

Characteristics – 'Golden Seed': Life and spirit undergo sublimation, acquiring the attribute of gold. Anything not of the gold grade will have its effect reduced by at least half. Survival ability in special environments increases, and common fatal parts of humans disappear…

Characteristic - "Extraordinary Spirit": The spirit undergoes gold-level sublimation, elemental affinity is enhanced, and mental energy load is greatly increased.

Characteristic - 'Golden Key': Possessing a certain position in the world, the world will give you a certain favor, your luck will increase slightly, and you will be able to observe a certain 'truth' of the world.

These three characteristics are the standard characteristics that a Gold-tier specimen possesses after advancement.

Of course, if a cultivator on the life side advances, then the second characteristic they acquire will be "extraordinary life".

There is a certain difference, but the difference is not too great.

Under normal circumstances, even for gold-grade individuals, the stats won't increase much after promotion, usually stopping at around 120 at most, and it will become difficult to increase any stats after that.

Due to the Saint's Potion, Rhine has some stats higher than usual, and also exhibits a unique characteristic:

Characteristic - 'Artificial Holy Child': Countless divine powers are gathered and arranged under artificial manipulation. You become the epitome of holiness in the eyes of most humans. Your divine attributes will increase significantly, but it will also be very difficult to obtain replenishment of regular divine power.

Rhine knew his physical condition; he estimated that 145 was the highest value he could ever reach. The artificial holy child had given him extremely powerful divine attributes, but it had also cut off his path to further advancement.

Even so, it's enough.

With the three golden characteristics and the artificial Holy Son, Rhine felt an unprecedented power at this moment.

Based on the single characteristic of "Gold Seed", ordinary steel seeds can hardly truly reach the level of gold seeds.

Even if it's Nemus, what does a value of 300 matter? In front of me, his 300 value is only equivalent to 150. The difference between the two is not that big.

Furthermore, the Extraordinary Spirit attribute will also increase the multiplier of one's own stats.

Even without using any techniques, simply releasing one's mental energy results in a multiplier of more than one point because mental energy is nearly materialized. In contrast, ordinary Black Stone type mental energy cultivators only have a multiplier of 0.3 when releasing their mental energy directly, and even those who reach the Steel type only have a multiplier of 0.5.

The higher the quality of one's mental energy, the more elements one can manipulate when casting spells, and the stronger the spells will be.

Rhine felt this deeply at that moment.

Even in his mental state, he couldn't help but be captivated by the feeling that the world had become so different after this sublimation.

However, Rhine's character was honed during those years in the Holy Son Project.

He quickly snapped out of his dazed state.

He opened his eyes, his senses sweeping across his surroundings, the golden aura awe-inspiring and overwhelming.

He also observed the battles taking place elsewhere.

The battles elsewhere are not looking too good right now.

Nems' subordinates were quite strong, especially the whale-like girl in the arena whom he almost failed to notice.

From the moment Parsons was killed, Lydia was essentially unstoppable.

After being severely injured by Leah, Seppirison managed to escape with his life thanks to his wit and received treatment from the priest, but he is now barely clinging to life.

The other two main forces of the church were the old man from the Judgment Team and Heisenberg.

At this moment, one of them is fighting against the whale-like Poole and the village guards, while the other is fighting against Kru and Downs.

The old man had the advantage, but his attacks were difficult to harm the whale-like enemies, and he could not inflict fatal damage on the thick-skinned Poole and others.

On the other hand, Heisenberg, who harbored extreme hatred for demons, was at a disadvantage.

Kru Kru, the little priest who had previously been under his nose, used his twin demon bloodline to cast spells, divine arts, and curses in two bodies, gradually suppressing Heisenberg.

It must be said that Kru is a genius; he is the most talented among all of Nems's subordinates.

After being awakened by Nems to his own evil nature as a fellow villain, he grew up extremely rapidly.

Some time ago, it even used multiple curses to curse itself, thereby rapidly increasing its stats.

In this situation, Kru actually gained the upper hand in the battle against Heisenberg.

And judging by the situation, Lydia will soon be able to kill Seprisen completely, and then starting with Lydia, the whole situation will collapse, and ultimately all of Nems's men will win.

Although Rhine didn't have much affection for the church itself, he was still grateful to Guilliman.

Although Guilliman tacitly approved the experiment, it was also he who granted them the identity of being human.

Guilliman was focused on developing the church, so naturally he couldn't allow too many of these elite clergy to die at this time.

So after becoming a Goldborn, Rhine didn't rush to cause trouble for Nemus, but instead set his sights on Lydia.

Where gazes converge, spiritual energy flows naturally, and then a large amount of light gathers there.

The intense light illuminated Leah's figure, and then the light transformed into numerous spears of light, about to pierce through Leah in an instant.

By killing Leah, Sepprison can free up his hands. Although he is not strong in combat, he is good at supporting others. With his ability of "Dispersion Suppression", he can help others win.

However, at this moment, Rhine's expression changed once again.

The spear of light, which was supposed to pierce through Leah instantly and kill her, lost control and stopped in front of Leah.

The gazes that should have been directed at him because of his advancement to Gold Saint shifted and fell on Nemus.

Suddenly, Rhine felt a powerful divine force emerge.

He turned his head and looked at Nems in disbelief.

Behind Nems, a beam of light descended from the sky.

Then the one-winged, closed-eye angel seemed to descend from heaven to earth.

He flew above Nemes, holy and beautiful.

His face, which bore a 60-70% resemblance to Nemus, also served as a clue to everyone's identity.

"Prayer Angel!!"

Unlike the previous air angels and etheric angels.

Those angels are merely elemental beings; they cannot represent God.

Prayer angels are different.

Nemes stood on the pillar, holding a sword in his right hand and raising his left.

Then Angel A placed her hand on Nemus's left hand.

The "Self-Agreement & Tripartite Agreement" has been launched!

Chapter 276 The Beginning

"This is impossible!"

"Why is it a prayer angel?" Many clergy members were on the verge of a mental breakdown.

The prayer angels represent completely different individuals.

To a certain extent, prayer angels and saints are all representatives of God.

Furthermore, compared to saints who may possess personal will, prayer angels are often representatives of God's direct will.

Now, the angels of prayer have appeared behind Nems. Doesn't this mean that God is standing behind Nems, and that they are the rebels who defy God?!

In the presence of a true angel, even a one-winged angel, Rhine Angel's angelic aura appears as inferior as a cheap imitation.

And indeed, after advancing to the Gold level, in his first move, the spear of light that he thought would surely win was directly seized by Angel A.

Isabella was also staring blankly at the angel A with Nemes's face.

"A prayer angel? Nemus?" The more Nemus revealed, the more mysterious she seemed.

From the genius paladin who pioneered swordsmanship, to the abyss demon, then to the angel of prayer, or the grand knight with whom she had a subtle, ambiguous relationship before.

Everything tells a story that is not known to others.

However, all further investigation at this moment is meaningless.

Because they are now mortal enemies.

Nems wanted the historical record, and in this battle, he revealed too much.

Whether it's a different kind of demon or a one-winged prayer angel, there's so much information contained within them.

If Nemes wins, he will definitely choose to silence them.

If they win, Nems will be hunted down from all sides.

There was no room for reconciliation between the two sides from the very beginning.

The demonic aura emanating from Nemus changed rapidly, combining with the various characteristics of Angel A.

The original black aura quickly transformed into dark gold.

Behind Nems, a single wing unfurled slightly, then stirred up a gust of wind.

Nemus gradually floated into the air, his arms outstretched, his toes pointing downwards, his whole being both sacred and mysterious.
