Chapter 774: The Ninth Abyss? (Three-in-one, please subscribe)
At this moment in the basement, Heart of Light No. 1, 6, and 13 were all connected with cables, linked to the underground nuclear fusion power furnace.
The surging energy supply allows them to maintain maximum output for a long time.
After forcing back those Divine Envoy Level figures, No. 6 also looked at the projection of the divine statue outside, full of surprise, her eyes inscrutable.
She knows that the Supreme can already bestow them Conceptual Power, not just the original methods of 'Purity' and 'Separation and Union', but also 'Holy Thunder' and 'Tribulation Fire'.
This is related to the Jingyi Altar around them, and also because the fundamental Martial Intent of the Supreme itself has reached a certain height, allowing it to leverage the Conceptual Power of the Supreme Divine Artifact, bestowing it upon those who are extremely devout to the Light Teachings.
However, this projection of the divine statue is simply too unfair.
Heart of Light No. 1 looked thoughtfully towards the direction of the underground: "It's those sanctuaries, the Concept Macro Force Field!"
The so-called 'Concept Macro Force Field', at the end of the day, is the gathering and connection of Spiritual Power, using specialized instruments to collect the spiritual power of people, then seeking common ground while reserving differences.
And at this moment, the Concept Macro Force Field set near the headquarters church collected far more spiritual power than they had anticipated.
"Is it those followers?"
No. 13 looked up, gazing at the image of the Supreme with a milk jug in one hand and the Holy Grail in the other, her face turning slightly green: "This, this is truly blasphemy!"
These followers actually dare, while the King of Light just descended to the world and hasn't fully mastered power, to twist the holy image of the King of Light with their willpower!
"No. 6, is this how you manage church affairs? Just letting these heresies run amok?"
"The expansion speed of No. 6's diocese is too fast. Presently, among the 370 million followers, less than one-tenth truly devoutly believe in the King of Light. This situation is unavoidable."
No. 6 remained calm, as her body's reconstruction occurred much earlier than No. 13's, and she began reorganizing church affairs according to the will of the Supreme two years ago.
"Actually, I consulted the Supreme, and the Supreme said the purpose of the Light King Sect's existence is to give hope to all followers, to split the darkness with Holy Thunder, to purify the world with Tribulation Fire, to illuminate the world with light, so his image among the followers doesn't matter, there's no need to forcefully correct it."
Her eyes took on a complex look. "Actually, I always thought that those followers who joined our sect in the past six months had no faith in the King of Light, but now it seems that may not be the case. Perhaps it is I who am too shallow."
She thought human hearts were indeed complex, consuming a hundred years without comprehension.
And at this moment, thirty-five kilometers east of the headquarters church, in an underground sanctuary, the dim emergency light above swayed, casting distorted shadows of the crowded people.
Due to its location not far from the headquarters of the Light King Sect's No. 6 diocese, nearly 900,000 people took refuge here, most of whom were followers of the Light Dynasty, filling the narrow space of less than 75,000 square meters and 20 floors tightly.
The air here was thick with the scent of sweat and fear, children curled up in their parents' arms, women tightly clutching the Light emblem on their chests, and men stared intently at the constantly vibrating ceiling — each explosion showered debris down like raindrops.
This underground sanctuary was incredibly sturdy, not only surrounded by military-grade concrete dozens of meters thick but also armored with battleship-level heavy steel plates, and after the Light King Sect took over, it was further fortified with large protective force field devices.
However, while the outer layer of this sanctuary is impregnable, securely withstanding continuous shock waves from various weapons and martial arts nearby, the simple interior decor is quite fragile, occasionally collapsing and causing increasing panic.
At this moment, an extremely powerful pressure penetrated the thick concrete and armor plates, reaching deep into the sanctuary.
This was the spiritual power of four Divine Envoy Level strong figures, recklessly unleashed during battle, sweeping in like a furious tide, making everyone's breath catch and causing ripples in the outer protective force field of the sanctuary.
Under the erosive impact of this powerful spiritual power, it emitted sharp buzzing sounds, seeming unbearable, ready to shatter at any moment.
Children cried out loudly in fear, clinging tightly to their parents, bodies trembling uncontrollably; women's faces turned pale, their hands tightly clutching at the Light emblem on their chests, nails digging into their palms.
In this extreme terror and despair, it was unknown who started first, but a deep and trembling voice echoed in the sanctuary,
"Splitting darkness with Holy Thunder, purifying the world with Tribulation Fire, illuminating the world with light—"
This was unmistakably the Holy Song of the Light King Sect.
At first, this voice was thin and weak, like a flickering candle in the dark, precariously close to extinguishing.
But soon, a second person, a third person joined in, their voices gradually merging into a torrent, lyrics pouring from the parched lips of the followers, carrying their devotion and prayers to the King of Light.
"King of Light, please protect your lambs, your brilliance pierces the eternal night, your mercy lights the lost path—"
The song, like a sliver of dawn in the dark, gradually ignited hope in people's hearts. More and more people joined in, the song growing mighty, the voices and will of hundreds of thousands of people coalescing into an intangible force, effortlessly penetrating through layers of concrete.
