He appears as a bird grandmother, yet his demeanor and behavior create a strong sense of contrast.
This illusion was like the most disgusting thing placed in front of Anse, yet he was powerless to do anything about it.
His entire body felt as if it were being gnawed at by countless ants, and a sense of despair overwhelmed his soul. His reason and personality seemed to be undergoing a transformation.
That unvented anger gradually transformed into hatred.
It's not just hatred for the Arhat realm, but hatred for all existence in the outside world, hatred for this world.
Aro watched all this with pleasure, waiting for Anse's soul to gradually accept this hatred for everything.
At the same time, Aro turned his gaze to Kru, wary of this strange fellow causing trouble for him.
He can be quite indifferent to things he doesn't care about.
However, he attaches great importance to things that are related to every bit of progress he makes.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have released the offspring directly in the form of an egg this time, leaving it in the material plane.
Although his ability is strong, it also has various limitations.
Once that egg is found and killed, he will forever lose the ability to grow two sides.
The reason for taking such a big risk is for Nems.
He was certain that Nemus possessed something that allowed him to break through the limitations of the alien species.
He has survived for over a hundred years at the peak of his alien stats!
This isn't a long time for some steel species in the material plane.
But for the ancient relics in the abyss, this is definitely considered 'longevity'.
The abyss is too chaotic. Not to mention alien demons, even high-level demons equivalent to the Gold species often die for inexplicable reasons.
He is quite capable and can handle many difficult situations, but he also lacks any sense of security.
Arojie valued all of this highly, so he didn't want any problems to arise in his plans.
To his surprise, however, Klu did not stop him; in fact, Klu was backing away at that moment.
Before Aro could even speculate whether there was a problem with it.
Then a ball of white fire shot towards this side.
"So fast?" The sub-entity of the Aro realm had secretly planted some methods within the city, methods that could detect the church's movements.
So he knew beforehand that the church had sent a lot of people toward him.
But he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
To get from the church to the southern suburbs, you need to cross half of the city.
Even if the church doesn't delay for a moment, it should still take more than ten minutes.
These ten minutes or so are enough for him to complete the transformation of his soul and change his location.
Unfortunately, he is now facing Isabella, who has undergone a super evolution.
A series of spells that increase speed and agility, such as Blessing of the Wind, Divine Speed, and Cat Spirit Possession, are released in combination under the influence of independent time.
Isabella was able to get here as quickly as possible.
Although this kind of loading spell will cause damage to the body, with Isabella's ability to use independent time, she is fully capable of self-recovery within independent time and then accelerating again.
It can be said that Isabella's crazy acceleration of her own time makes her move much faster than others.
They arrived here in less than a few minutes.
He was initially in poor condition, but after resting for a few minutes during his private time, he recovered.
Holy spells targeting demons have already been cast.
An invisible force emanated from Aro's body, forming a protective shield.
However, Isabella and Nemus have one thing in common: they both analyze any abilities they have ever encountered and then look for ways to counter them.
Isabella did the same this time.
This ray of light was specially prepared by Isabella for the world of Aro.
Since that invisible force has no attributes, it can be manipulated and shaped at will, so let's erode it!
A sacred ball of light descended, its white radiance rapidly attempting to infect the invisible protective force field.
And with the contamination of sacred attributes.
Isabella was already close, and then came the spiritual energy she emitted.
Spellcasting Technique - Spell Hijacking!
If it's a spell-like ability, then she's prepared to kidnap someone.
If the enemy doesn't cooperate, then use your own methods to erode it, and then hijack it!
This is Isabella's current philosophy of spellcasting, a philosophy she learned from her teacher, the old pastor.
Now, it seems that the world of Arro is about to become a victim of this ideology.
The invisible barrier broke down, then transformed into streaks of light that pierced down.
Spell Stacking - Purification!
Anse, who was lying on the ground and being tortured, felt the restraints on his body being released.
The anger that had previously had nowhere to go suddenly found an outlet.
"Aro Realm!" roared, and the giant bear pounced toward Aro Realm.
"I'm not playing with you anymore." Aro raised an eyebrow, looking at the Steel-type priests who were constantly rushing over from afar.
A phantom image emerged from his body; it was Granny Bird.
Chapter 255 The Prey
Aro was also very decisive; since they couldn't get an equivalent soul, they decided not to force it.
An unbalanced, flipped state will only lower one's combat ability. In the current situation, forcibly preserving Granny Bird's soul will only put one in danger and cause one to lose even more.
Why not just release it like this...?
Now that the bird granny's soul has been released, there's no need to continue fighting Isabella and the others.
According to his estimation, the old guy from the referee team also made a move.
If you get entangled with someone, you might even encounter danger.
He wouldn't gain much from killing these people, so why take the risk?
As soon as Granny Bird's soul appeared, Aro's hand was already pressed on the ground, and a magic circle appeared.
"In the name of my Aro realm, I now bless you, may you be forever condemned to the abyss!" The cruel demonic words fell upon the soul of the old bird.
The magic circle was also rapidly changing, transforming into a passageway.
Meanwhile, the demonic aura emanating from Granny Bird's soul was rapidly entangling and penetrating her very being.
After doing all this, Aro's appearance became androgynous, and then his value of over 190 suddenly surged, propelling him away into the distance.
"Make a choice: save the soul of that innocent old man, or come after me."
The sounds of Arro are fading into the distance.
Isabella, without any hesitation, chose to save the person.
She already knew about Granny Bird from Zuowen, and she had great respect for this old woman.
Now that we have a chance to save her, we will absolutely not let her soul fall into depravity!
The mental energy shifts rapidly, communicating with the power of faith, divine magic: purification!
"Go and destroy the foundation of the magic circle!" Isabella shouted.
Anse, who was still not quite in the right mind, was instantly jolted awake by Isabella's voice, which was like a bell tolling.
Anse immediately pounced on the ground, his huge bear paws sweeping away the surrounding flesh and soil.
The magic array leading to the abyss is not so easy to activate, especially since the Aro Realm did not go to extremes in order to buy time.
Seeing that no one was chasing after him, Arojie, propelled by his high energy level, rushed rapidly toward Baiwei Town.
With his stats, he could definitely capture Nemus before anyone else could react and force him to reveal the power that could break his alien shackles.
Meanwhile, Nems, who was in solitary confinement, opened his eyes and could feel the tide of history converging on him.
The final hurdle, the final battle to extract the historical data, is about to begin.
"Is Aro Realm the first challenger in this battle?" Although Nemus was in the confinement room at the moment, he was as if he were sitting on the throne of the Demon King, waiting for the enemy to approach.
"Indeed, there is no problem. As a different kind of demon with a value of nearly two hundred, it is really impossible for an ordinary person to deal with it."
"Even if I wanted to find a subordinate to stop him, it wouldn't be that easy."
"Kru's intervention only slightly hampered his growth."
"Once a battle begins, it's hard for me to pay attention to anything else."
"So what impact will the challenge from the Aro realm have, that others will also launch an attack on me?" At this moment, Nemus felt quite calm and even had the leisure to think about these questions.
As things stand, his identity is not enough to subject him to attacks from the church.
The key to the church is Rhine, who is currently focused on advancing to the Gold Saint level and shouldn't be inclined to attack us.
"Unless his promotion inevitably conflicts with some kind of relationship with me."
It was at this moment that Nemus thought of the Holy Son.
The Holy Son Project is a thread that connects many people.
Rhine was a failed Holy Son, while Holy Son Nem was the old priest's last work and the closest he came to success.
Nemus's current body is an experimental product modeled after the Holy Son Project.
"So, the answer lies with the Holy Son?"
Nems thought to himself, then smiled, his eyes filled with anticipation.
With each breath, things seemed to become increasingly calm, but the fighting spirit in Nemus's eyes grew stronger and stronger.
Since his reincarnation, the number of battles that can excite him has been decreasing.
The only truly evenly matched opponents were a handful of individuals encountered in the abyss.
After arriving in the material plane, partly for the purpose of disguise, and partly because there were indeed no opponents.
The old pastor was capable, but he realized his mistake too late, and with the Holy Potion, he only had the power for one strike.
That level of fighting was far from being considered intense!
Aro's speed was extremely fast; an invisible force propelled him directly towards his destination.
When he returned to the abyss, he stared intently at Nemus, trying to memorize Nemus's aura.
Now, Nemus's presence is not concealed; he is right there in the church.
Isabella and her group had previously led a large number of people to the outskirts of the southern district, which ironically served as a diversionary tactic.
They provided assistance in the attack on Nems.
As Aro was thinking this, he suddenly froze, because a paladin with purple hair, dressed even more extravagantly than him, suddenly leaped up from the ground, his sword flashing as he launched an attack on him.
The opponent's stats are not bad, reaching the extreme value of the steel type, and its overall configuration is also quite good.
Normally, Aro might be willing to exchange a few blows with his opponent.
But I'm sorry, he's in a hurry.
His appearance changed slightly, transforming from a neutral face to a more masculine one, and his numerical values decreased slightly. However, the invisible power enveloping his entire body also changed slightly at this moment.
Parsons remained calm, but he tightened his grip on the sword even more.
At this moment, the family's secret breathing technique entered a special phase, and his speed suddenly increased by 30%.
His entire body left a purple afterimage in mid-air, and the sword in his hand pierced through Arojie's body in an instant.
Then the blade transformed into countless sword lights, which followed the pierced wound and tore Arokai to pieces.
