Lu Xuan laughed and said with a smile, “Creationism? You guys said that the world was created by your Lord, but it is not just your Lord who claims that to have done it. With how big this earth is, how come there are so many creators?”
Hearing Lu Xuan’s frivolous words, the Pope immediately turned pale with anger. One by one, all the bishops and the archbishops in red also grew furious.
If it had been in the past, most of them probably wouldn’t have cared so much. No one knew whether the many so-called bishops and the archbishops in red truly believed in God.
Since the revival of spirit qi and the confirmation that heaven really existed, however, it seemed that everyone’s faith had been strengthened until they suddenly became fanatics.
The more fanatical believers there were, the more power they could gain.
At that moment, Lu Xuan was surrounded by the most loyal cultivators.
Lu Xuan wore a cold smile as he said, “Well, aren’t you a stubborn bunch?”
“I don’t care what Gods you want to believe in, but if you want the people of the world to grovel before your God, I won’t allow it!
“Human beings have been on their own for so long. When did we ever need the Gods’ permission?!”
“Shut up! Without the Gods, you wouldn’t have been able to live a happy life today!”
One bishop, who seemed to be a cardinal, was shivering all over. Lu Xuan was an even more abominable atheist than those non-believers.
Lu Xuan gave him a cold glare and directly said, “I guess there’s no point in me trying to talk to such stubborn people like you. I want to sweep through the Holy City with my sword and kill everyone in my way!”
As Lu Xuan roared, his body flew into the air like a bolt of lightning. The ferocious bird Zhu Wuji followed after Lu Xuan.
The Spiritual Aether hovered all over his body, with sword qi emerging from every pore in his body.
The sword qi swept out and formed a terrifying storm above the Holy City. The sight was extremely horrible for anyone to witness.
“According to the Great Prophecy, if God said there needs to be light, then there will be light!”
The Pope let out a roar as the Holy Light glowed all over his body. In an instant, he ascended into the sky.
The Holy Light on his body was very rich, and he was as strong as an expert in the fourth tier of the Divine Treasure Realm. He was also considered one of the strongest cultivators in the world, to the point of being considered a top expert in the craft.
Excluding freaks like Lu Xuan, he was already one of the strongest people in the world.
The divine art was turned into chains of the law, which directly wrapped around Lu Xuan’s body.
He wanted to stop Lu Xuan from doing anything!
“Humph!” Lu Xuan snorted coldly like a dull thunder.
The Pope was immediately attacked. He was sent flying on the spot, spitting out blood from his mouth.
The Pope was hit very hard as he stared straight ahead. He finally realized how terrifying Lu Xuan was: he was no ordinary person, but rather a monster.
With his figure high above the others, he seemed like a living God.
“Stop him!” the Pope exclaimed.
At that moment, those archbishops in red, the cardinal bishops, and several cultivators within the Holy City all simultaneously displayed their divine art.
“According to the Great Prophecy, if God said there needs to be light, then there will be light!”
“According to the Great Prophecy, if God said there needs to be light, then there will be light!”
“According to the Great Prophecy, if God said there needs to be light, then there will be light!”
…
As several people shouted with one voice, countless beams of divine light suddenly swept out of their bodies.
The lights swept towards Lu Xuan, quickly turned into a torrent of terror.
The torrent of terror had not yet fallen on Lu Xuan. However, they saw that on the top of Lu Xuan’s head, the sword qi formed a terrifying sword that was thousands of meters tall and hundreds of meters wide.
“Sword!”
With a loud shout from Lu Xuan, the sword light directly fell. It chopped at the torrent of divine art that was heading towards him.
Boom!
When the two sides collided, the light of terror swept in all directions as if it were splitting apart the sky and the ground.
At that moment, there was no other light or sound on Earth. only this terrifying light that had swept across everything and over the entire Holy City.
Everything was gone!
The light was gone!
Countless people simultaneously vomited blood. Having been hit hard, hundreds of experts in the Divine Treasure Realm all vomited blood on the spot in this collision.
Nobody could believe what they saw. To their surprise, Lu Xuan’s sword attack had unexpectedly hit them all. One by one, they were all forced to spit out mouthfuls of blood.
Above the Holy City, Lu Xuan’s figure remained as steady as a mountain. He didn’t appear to be even slightly injured by the collision just now.
As the wind wreaked havoc on the sky, and Lu Xuan’s clothes fluttered. However, his figure was as tall as Mount Tai.
Zhu Wuji, who was next to him, had been blown hundreds of meters away. He only felt the blood and qi all over his body crazily vibrating.
That terrifying collision had made his physical body feel as if it was about to break apart, even though it was not aimed at him. He had only suffered a little bit of the aftereffects.
However, Lu Xuan seemed to have been unscathed even after taking the blow straight on.
Lu Xuan could not help but think that it a ridiculous idea.
How many experts was he up against?
There were hundreds of people in the Divine Treasure Realm!
“Oh great, they’re all surrounded by me!” Lu Xuan murmured to himself.
Although the idea sounded funny, he felt that there was nothing more appropriate to describe the current situation.
Lu Xuan failed to strike, so the sword qi on his body swelled again. Then, a giant sword was formed again on the top of his head.
The endless sword light shone dazzlingly in the sky. It happened almost instantly, yet it seemed as if the light had taken away all the sunlight.
The giant sword fell without the slightest hesitation!
Boom!
Wherever the sword passed, the sky trembled. It was as if Heaven and Earth had been torn in half.
“Start the defensive boundary and stop him!” The expression on the Pope’s face suddenly changed, as if an extremely terrifying thought had come to mind.
The remaining archbishops in red, cardinal bishops, and cultivators immediately launched the power of the Holy Light to activate the enchantment above the Holy City. They didn’t seem to care how badly injured they were.
Boom!
In an instant, the sword fell on the boundary. The sword had instantly destroyed everything it touched; it was as if it had the power to destroy both Heaven and Earth.
Everything was crumbling to pieces!
The boundary had blocked the sword attack, but only temporarily. Immediately afterward, the boundary broke down on the spot, and then the sword continued to fall.
Boom!
The sword fell on Saint Peter’s Square without slowing down.
The endless air waves turned into a terrifying storm that swept in all directions.
Countless buildings were destroyed and razed to the ground in this frenzy.
In an instant, more than half of the once majestic Holy City had been destroyed.
Countless powerful cultivators were killed, while the rest died on the spot after being shattered by the enchantment.
