Chapter Nineteen: Crisis

  The fifth-level divine officer had a cold face, watching the battle from afar. But a divine technique he casually released has greatly increased the strength of the followers here.

  Lai's pressure suddenly increased. These believers were originally fierce and fearless, and it was difficult to fight them. Now that their attributes had been enhanced, they were even more difficult to deal with than before.

  He glanced at the 5th rank god official, thought for a moment and didn't go over. He was only in his twenties, no way would he go challenge a BOSS monster that was over 50 levels higher, that's just asking to die...

  In this world, the difference in strength between Bronze and Silver is enormous. This can be seen from the fact that Lays alone could withstand the attacks of several third-class warriors. This was also because Lays' injury had caused a significant loss of strength, making him slightly weaker than an ordinary fourth-class warrior. That priest was fifth-class! One level higher than Uncle Lays!

  Fortunately, this guy maintained his identity and did not personally come up to take action, but only released some auxiliary magic from a distance. Otherwise, this battle would probably be unwinnable...

  It's still okay for now, take advantage of the opportunity when that high-ranking official is off guard and hasn't taken action yet, quickly get rid of these few followers, then have a group of people gang up on that level 5 official, maybe there's still some chance of winning!

  Ji Ran glanced at the remaining two mages once again.

  Now, on the side of the true god's followers, there are only five warriors and two mages still fighting. The pressure caused by the five warriors is not small, but Lais and Bambek can still hold on. The key is the two mages, who are throwing out various spells, which are much stronger than Belinda's magic. Belinda was just chanting a spell when she was countered by an opposing mage, so now she can't cast any more spells. Only Erin can pose a certain threat to the two mages. However, the two mages are mutually supporting each other with defensive spells, and although Erin is only level three, her bow and arrow are quite powerful, but she can't break through the protective shield of the two mages...

  It's time for me to take action. With a plan in mind, Ji Yan locked onto a mage who was chanting a spell.

  Within arm's length, a sudden movement! One step forward, and Ji Yan instantly burst to the side of that monk. Another monk reacted extremely quickly, immediately casting a defensive spell on the monk in front of Ji Yan.

  However, Ji Ran did not attack immediately. Instead, he took a deep breath and raised his long sword.

  Sword energy, explode!

  At level 20, Ji Ran already had two sword auras. Sword auras can be used to cast sword skills, but they can also be used in other ways. For example, exploding sword aura.

  Burst Sword Energy requires the consumption of a whole sword energy, and the effect is that for a short period of time, all of Ji Ran's attributes are increased by 50%! During this period, Ji Ran's strength can even surpass his own level!

  Of course, it's the hierarchy of this world.

  In an instant, a layer of white light enveloped Ji Ran's body. The white light rippled slightly, like sword energy constantly surging and receding. The long sword in his palm shone even brighter, and with his swing, it heavily chopped towards the magician!

  Listen to the thunder! Another loud clap of thunder suddenly interrupted the spell that the wizard was chanting. The wizard's head spun and he retreated repeatedly. However, Ji Ran pressed step by step, with his long sword shining on top of the wizard's head and chopped down!

  Although the law master retreated, he was not particularly afraid. He was still staring at the defensive spell, how could it be easily broken? Now it's just an opportunity, I must give this guy who broke into my mage team and caused great harm to us a ruthless blow!

  He casually pulled out a scroll from his bosom and with both hands exerted force wanting to tear it open.

  But his movements stopped.

  Ji Ran's sword was like cutting through tofu, instantly splitting the defensive magic's light shield in two!

  The monk's eyes widened in terror, and this was also his last expression in this world.

  To be honest, using Thunderclap to kill someone head-on is simply unbearable. That one sword was chopped on that guy's head... it can be imagined how miserable the scene was. But Ji Ran endured that feeling of nausea and vomiting, and with a bit of effort, he pulled out the sword, then quickly bent down to pick up the scroll, turned around and rushed towards another mage!

  The monk retreated in terror, adding a defensive spell to himself while hastily grabbing the necklace around his neck. Then another blue light shield enveloped him, seemingly another attribute of the defensive spell.

  However, what combat power can a mage who has been approached by an agile swordsman exert? At this rate, his death is only a matter of time.

  However, at this time, the Wu Zhe sect disciples came back to help. Ji Ran didn't entangle with them, dodged the Wu Zhe's attack, and cut off one of the Wu Zhe's arms with a single slash, then turned around and left!

  Entangled with a martial artist, let a mage attack freely on the side, even if it's him, he wouldn't dare guarantee his own safety.

  The situation is already quite good now. Although the sword energy was consumed, after all, another magician was killed. Moreover, he also picked up a thing similar to a magic scroll!

  He turned around and launched a surprise attack, consuming nearly half of the true energy in his body. But it didn't matter anymore, he had already retreated to Lydia's side.

  "Take it, see if you can use it!" He tossed the magic scroll to Lydia and Jian Yan picked up his long sword again, charging towards the several warriors in front of him. But halfway through, he casually sheathed his long sword, stretched out his hand, and pulled out the large two-handed sword that Uncle Lais had used before from behind his back!

  This double-handed great sword had actually been on Ji Ran's back all along. After Lais used the Upper Bone Sword, Ji Ran took this sword over.

  The Four Seasons Swordsmanship corresponds to two mental states, Heart Sword and Intention Sword. The Heart Sword is agile, while the Intention Sword is powerful. Switching to a pair of large swords in both hands and using the Intention Sword mentality, Ji Yan's fighting style changes dramatically.

  Just like Uncle Leis, one man guards the pass, and ten thousand men cannot open it! Wielding the giant sword in his hands, he brings up wave after wave of wild winds.

  One sword cuts off, momentum is unstoppable!

  Ji Ran and Lais became the main force to block those martial artist followers, Ban and Beck assisted on the side. Aileen targeted the only remaining mage, Lydia was at the back, tearing open the scroll with a pale face controlling the energy within the scroll.

  That dead mage really hid a good treasure, this scroll is actually a large-scale attack spell. The advantage of the spell scroll is that it doesn't need to be chanted, and can cast spells higher than one's own level!

  However, for Lydia, the magical power contained in this scroll was still too great. Her spiritual strength could hardly control this magic, and after triggering it, she could only throw it at that group of martial arts practitioners in the first time!

  A large expanse of flames danced in mid-air, transforming into fiery serpents that pounced on the martial artists!

  "Damn you, sinners! You who have injured the people of the true God will surely receive the true God's severe punishment!" At this time, the 5th rank divine officer moved. Seeing that his subordinates were about to be killed by those people while he was watching from the sidelines, it would be quite troublesome for him to deal with these guys alone. It would be better to take advantage of the situation and kill them off, offering their souls as a sacrifice to the true God's avatar!

  Although it can't be caught back, such a result is also acceptable.

  Facing the fire snakes that were about to descend, the fifth-level divine officer stepped forward, raising his hands: "The gods say, let the sinners bear their own sins!"

  A dark red glow rose, directly covering all the martial artists from below the fire snakes. And those fire snakes, after coming into contact with this glow, suddenly turned around and flew backwards!

  The fire snake bounces back, targeting Lydia and Eileen!

  At this sight, Lays' eyes turned red. This fire snake is a fourth-level magic, Lydia and Aileen can't hold it at all!

  "Damn it!!! You bunch of True God Sect's trash!" Leis' body suddenly burst out with a brilliant light, and countless Dou Qi exploded out. The Bone Slasher Sword swung fiercely, the Dou Qi forming a violent gust of wind that charged straight at those fire snakes!

  At this moment, the aura bursting out of Lais exceeded his current level. All the fire snakes were almost blocked by the aura and extinguished in mid-air. The few that fell down were also intercepted by Ban and Ji Ran. However, after bursting out with this aura, Uncle Lais became panting, his Bone Sword dragged to the ground, and he wilted.

  "Hmm? You can burst out with such a high level, your strength should be more than that... However, it's a pity that you seem to be unable to exert that kind of strength now. So, just honestly become the sacrifice for my god!"

  The fifth-level divine official was also surprised by Lays' explosion, but he quickly sneered and raised his hands again: "Lambs of God, offer fresh blood and flesh to your god!"

  A dark red cloud of fog suddenly appeared, and then merged into the bodies of the remaining few cultists. The eyes of those cultists immediately turned blood red, and their bodies began to swell at a speed visible to the naked eye. With a strange cry, these cultists once again pounced on Lays and others!

  "Die, you monsters!" Becker suddenly shouted, his body flashing with light. The fake magic treasure that Ji Ran had given him was finally activated at this moment.

  The boost in speed made his movements instantly agile. The long spear thrust upwards and downwards, each strike targeting the cultists' vital points. Although the cultists' bodies were swollen with bulging muscles, their intelligence was clearly insufficient, and they only knew how to charge forward recklessly. Bek's long spear struck repeatedly, its sharpness increased, directly piercing through those cultists!

  But strangely, these followers did not stop advancing because of this. As if the physical pain had been blocked out, they grinned and charged towards Beck without hesitation, wielding their weapons!

  He struck the cultists several times in a row, but to no effect, and was immediately put on the back foot. In a moment of carelessness, he was also slashed across the arm by one of the cultists with a long sword, and blood burst forth instantly. Under the injury, Beck had to retreat again and again. But those injured cultists still pressed step by step!

  Aileen was also constantly shooting arrows on the other side, but could only block those cultists for an instant. The wizard behind him had also lost his mind due to the divine magic of the fifth-level god official and was simply using his instincts to cast his strongest spell. Aileen shot two arrows over, although she pierced that wizard, she didn't interrupt the wizard's chanting!

  In an instant, everyone's situation became extremely critical.
