Chapter 1183: One Sword Breaks the City Defense Formation and Enters the Inner City
Just as the figure himself said, he was none other than the Pope of the Holy See, St. Francis, an old man who had lived for at least two decades.
"Old man, you finally come out. I thought you were going to be a coward forever. I want to kill the Son of God of your Holy See, do you have any objections?" Chen Yang said coldly, not too surprised.
In fact, he had already realized that it was the old Pope of the Holy See who was taking action.
"Alas, it's all my fault for not being strict with my subordinates and neglecting to discipline them, which led to my son making a big mistake. I am ashamed to face you, Chen Tianren! That's why I've been hesitating and only showing up now." The Pope of the Holy See said with a guilty look on his face, looking like a good old man with a kind face.
However, from the death of the cardinal just now, it can be seen that he is by no means a good person, but extremely cruel and ruthless.
To save the Son, he could sacrifice a cardinal.
If it was for the Holy See, he would certainly be able to sacrifice more.
"Ashamed to face it? I don't see any shame or self-blame in you, only loss and resentment. Lost because the Divine Knight was no match for me and was killed by me, and resentful because I made your Holy See lose face in front of the world. If you were really ashamed and self-blame, you should have shown up when I first arrived and handed over that thief John for me to punish. You are the one who caused the current situation, and you have an unshirkable responsibility. If you still protect that thief John and help the tiger, I can assure you that there will be more casualties. Even the entire city of Brahma may no longer have any need to exist." Chen Yang said forcefully, without giving the Pope any face.
The Pope's face flushed slightly after Chen Yang exposed his inner thoughts, but he remained calm and said, "Your Excellency Chen Yang, I deeply regret and blame myself for the harm my Holy Son has caused you and your girlfriend. However, considering the situation at that time, he had no choice. Moreover, with your ability, I believe your girlfriend is still alive, and may have already broken the curse. In this case, can you please show some mercy? It can be considered as a favor to me. For this, the Holy See is willing to pay 50 billion US dollars as compensation to you and your girlfriend."
Hiss!
Many people were shocked when they heard the old Pope say that he was willing to pay 50 billion US dollars in exchange for the life of St. John the Baptist.
Fifty billion US dollars is an astronomical figure of wealth. It is enough to make someone the richest man in a big Eastern country, and a real richest man at that.
Even a god-level being could rarely remain calm in the face of such a huge amount of wealth.
Gudong!
The Son of God John swallowed deeply, his face filled with panic.
If the old Pope had not taken action just now, he would have been dead.
Chen Yang's strength was far beyond his imagination, and he was many times stronger than he was two years ago.
He never dreamed that a sinister little action of his two years ago would bring disaster to himself and the Holy See two years later.
Now he only hoped that Chen Yang would agree to the old pope's request, accept the 50 billion US dollars, and spare his life. Because even the Divine Knight was defeated, the old pope was obviously no match for Chen Yang.
"Fifty billion US dollars, your Holy See is really generous! But, if you want me, Chen Yang, to stop, you're dreaming! Blood debts must be repaid with blood! Whoever dares to stop me, I will kill him. You, Francis, will not be an exception." Chen Yang said with contempt in his eyes, determined to kill the Son of Saint John.
"Alas, is there really no room for maneuver? I have some friendship with the old Dragon King of your Eastern country. Can you..." the old Pope said again, mentioning the old Dragon King of the Dragon Group.
As a result, this time he was interrupted by Chen Yang before he could finish his words: "Shut up! Since you refuse to hand over the person, then I will kill you!"
Clang!
As soon as he finished speaking, a long sword was unsheathed on his body. The sword light suddenly expanded and became more than a hundred feet long, like a giant sword piercing the sky. There were stars revolving around the sword body, and its power was incredible.
Before the sword was chopped down, a dark crack appeared in the void under the blade.
"cut!"
Chen Yang shouted and slashed at the Holy See's formation with his sword.
No conditions offered by anyone could stop him from killing the Son of God, John.
The killing intention is eternal, simple and brutal!
Hiss!
Seeing such a sword, even the Pope couldn't help but gasp.
"My Church's great formation is forged with the faith and willpower of all living beings. Its power is truly boundless. It has nine layers, both inside and out, and all nine are connected as one. Unless one can slash through all nine layers with a single sword strike, the formation will remain inexhaustible. This boy is undoubtedly formidable, but he's not a Golden Core after all. It's impossible for him to slash through all nine layers with a single sword strike."
Thinking of this, the Pope felt relieved again.
"This bastard is too arrogant. He must be killed! Otherwise, how can I, the number one pope in the world, maintain my reputation as the Holy See?" Saint John said gritting his teeth.
"Shut up! Isn't it all your fault?" the old Pope said angrily.
Snapped!
As soon as he finished speaking, the old Pope slapped the Son of Saint John in the face, knocking him dozens of meters away and even making a big hole in the wall.
Hiss!
The seven cardinals were immediately frightened and silent.
Their Pope looks kind, but he is actually a ruthless person. There are at least thousands of people who have died at his hands.
Buzz!
Boom boom boom!
At this moment, one can see that endless holy light permeates the sky above the entire inner city of the Holy See, transforming into layer upon layer of magic arrays. Each layer looks as thin as a cicada's wing, but is actually as solid as iron.
The old wolf king, who had just reached the great perfection of the divine realm, chopped with the storm axe for a long time, but at most he could only split five layers of the formation. You can imagine how strong this formation is.
The Holy See has been established for thousands of years, and the faith and power of all living beings have also nourished this holy city for thousands of years, making every brick and tile, every inch of soil here imbued with divinity and almost indestructible.
The nine-layer formation barrier, coupled with the indestructible divinity of the holy city, is impossible for anyone to break it unless the Golden Core takes action.
This is also the reason why the old Pope was unwilling to bow to Chen Yang.
He wants to maintain the last dignity of the Holy See.
However, the moment Chen Yang slashed down with his sword, a wave that seemed to be able to crush the heaven and earth descended and enveloped the entire inner city of the Holy See.
It was a sword domain, a vast sword domain, which brought pressure to the holy city as the sword edge pressed down.
The power was so strong that it was not as strong as a golden elixir, but stronger than a golden elixir. It was like an ancient god was born, holding a giant sword that could reach the sky, and slashing towards the city defense formation of the Holy See.
At that moment, countless people opened their eyes wide and looked up.
Then I saw a giant sword that was a hundred feet long and reached the sky, pressing down like a galaxy. It was dazzling, but also filled with a terrifying murderous aura.
Click!Click!
Before the giant sword was landed, the nine-layered formation that covered the inner city of Fancheng and was as solid as a rock was torn into two by the pressure of the falling sword.
Hiss!
Seeing this scene, no one could remain calm.
Especially the people from the Holy See inside the formation, they all gasped, their pupils suddenly shrank, and they were extremely panicked.
"Oh no, the formation may not be able to hold on. Let's work together, use our magic power, and bless the formation." The Pope's face changed drastically, and he had an extremely ominous premonition in his heart, and he said loudly.
The power of Chen Yang's sword was close to that of the Golden Elixir and the limit of the Holy City's defense formation.
All of a sudden, the seven cardinals, the Son of Saint John who had just been slapped in the face, a group of paladins, and other clergymen all moved in a hurry, casting waves of magic power to bless the remaining formation barriers.
With the blessing of these magical powers, one can clearly see that the light blooming on the formation barrier is even brighter, and the formation barrier has become more stable.
But it was useless. Chen Yang transformed into a giant ten feet tall, unfolded the giant spiritual body that was half a step away from the perfection of the Xuanhuang Dao body, and held in his hand a huge sword of the sun, moon and stars that was a hundred feet long. He looked like a god holding a magic sword and slashing down. The whole world was cut in half by this sword.
Click!
Phew!
Above the holy city, even the remaining seven formations and barriers that were blessed with the magical powers of the Pope and others were as fragile as tofu under this sword. They were cut through by a single blow and were easily destroyed completely.
Although it was a divine realm being used, Chen Yang's sword was powerful enough to reach the golden elixir realm!
Not only that, after the nine layers of the city defense formation were all broken, the sword light slashed into the inner city. The city walls and huge palaces that were indestructible because they were filled with divinity... were like sand castles on the beach. When the strong wind blew, they all turned into sand and disappeared.
That was because after the sword domain was broken, the terrifying sword energy that was formed penetrated into the building, making the building extremely fragile.
The so-called divinity is ultimately no match for the power of absolute destruction.
In the end, all the buildings in the inner city of the Holy See were destroyed, and a sword mark several meters wide and dozens of feet deep ran through the entire city, like an abyss.
This situation was very similar to two years ago, when a military base of the Star-Spangled Empire in South Korea was destroyed by Chen Yang's sword.
With the cold light of a sword, all things wither!
Puff puff!
Three of the remaining seven cardinals were hacked to death, shattered into pieces by the surging sword energy. Even the Pope spat out a mouthful of blood.
As for the knights and clergy who were killed by lightning, there were even more.
This sword almost shattered the thousands of years of foundation of the Holy See.
And Chen Yang also showed his true strength in this sword.
Such a sword is no less powerful than a nuclear explosion.
"Do not……"
Looking at the inner city of the Holy See turned into ruins, the old Pope vomited blood and roared in grief.
The outer city was gone at this time, razed to the ground in the battle between Chen Yang and the Divine Knight.
In other words, at this moment the entire city of Fancheng, both the outer city and the inner city, has become a ruin.
A country was destroyed just like that.
For the old Pope St. Francis, this was an unbearable burden in life!
The Holy See, which had been passed down for thousands of years, was destroyed in his hands. Even if it was not completely destroyed, it was severely damaged. As the Pope of the Holy See, he should take responsibility and is a sinner for all ages.
He also underestimated Chen Yang's fighting ability and Chen Yang's determination to kill the Son of Saint John, which ultimately led to this disastrous outcome.
If he had handed over the Son of God John at the beginning, not only would the Holy Knight not have died, but several cardinals, more paladins, clergy, and ordinary people in society would also have survived.
Of course, the inner and outer cities of Brahma will not be destroyed.
At this moment, the Pope was deeply regretful, his face turned ashen, and in an instant it seemed as if all his energy had been drained away, and he looked dozens of years older.
One misstep will lead to eternal regret and make you a sinner for all eternity.
No one would be in a happy mood if it were anyone else.
"I'm sorry, old Pope, I've destroyed your inner city. I told you not to stop me, but you wouldn't listen. You'll have to bear the consequences yourself, don't blame me!" Chen Yang said lightly.
He has said all the ugly words in advance, so there is nothing to blame himself for.
boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, he took a step forward and appeared in the ruins of the inner city. A big foot dropped from the sky and stomped down hard on the Son of Saint John.
No one dared to stop it, not even the Pope.
"Pope, save me, I don't want to die!" The Son of Saint John howled.
"God, get out of here! You want to kill me? No way!"
"Holy light surges!"
"Holy Light Bound!"
"Holy Light Cross Sword!"
"The Great Judgment of Light!"
……
In an instant, Saint John used all his life's knowledge and various great magical powers to attack the golden foot that fell from the sky.
However, it was all in vain. The golden dragon was indestructible, and it fell like a golden mountain, overwhelming everything. All attacks on it were like eggs hitting rocks.
"It's over, my life is over! It's finally over!"
In the end, John the Baptist was completely in despair.
If you don’t do it, you won’t die!
He was now deeply regretful. He shouldn't have had any evil thoughts about Qiao Wanjun in the first place, and ended up killing himself.
However, just when everyone thought that the Son of God John was doomed to die, something strange happened. A thick holy light shot up into the sky, like a pillar supporting the sky, and actually blocked the giant golden foot that Chen Yang stepped on.
Although it only held out for a moment, after which the pillar of holy light shattered into pieces, it was enough for the Son of Saint John to escape. He appeared beside the Pope like a streak of light and phantom.
Boom!
Chen Yang stepped on empty air, and a huge footprint pit appeared on the ground.
"pope……"
The Son of God John was so grateful that he almost cried.
He never expected that at the critical moment of his life and death, the old Pope would actually save his life.
Yes, the one who just shot out that pillar of holy light that supported the sky was none other than the old Pope.
boom!
The Pope, Saint Francis, who had just been listless and looked as if all his energy had been drained away, now had a huge burst of energy. Streams of blood and energy rushed out from his crown, blowing the golden crown on his head away.
Even his body expanded several times, transforming from a skinny old man into a middle-aged strong man. His muscles bulged at a speed visible to the naked eye, and tendons appeared on his body surface like a turning earth dragon. His hair also stood upright, just like a Super Saiyan transformation, with full firepower.
This is the rhythm of fighting to the end with Chen Yang!
