Chapter 180: The City of Ancient Trees - Terramis (4)
When Chen Kai closed the door of this small temple, he could already see a ray of sunlight above the horizon, and in the dark places of the city, wisps of black aura began to gradually probe the appearance of the brain. Finally, they slowly converged into black phantoms, which floated in mid-air and wandered throughout the city, covering the entire city like a dark cloud.
As Chen Yi and the others began to regain the divine power in the temple, these black shadows wandering around began to slowly gather and attack the closed gate. When Nero Eru used the power of magic to clean up the statue of the goddess of nature in the temple, wisps of faint natural breath were slowly released. It's just that compared to the divine life force generated by Chen Yi's prayer on the altar, this wisp of natural power is too thin.
Therefore, when those black shadows slammed into the gate, this wisp of natural power barely lasted long before it was defeated, watching a black face slowly struggle from the gate and trying to enter the hall, Chen Kai, who was releasing the sacred place, directly released a holy flame towards the other party. A small wisp of flame instantly ignited the black shadow, causing him to ignite like a lit torch. The terrible screams were as piercing as glass being cut through metal, but when everyone saw the black shadows rushing in one after another on the door, no one paid attention to them, until the aura power released by Chen Yi enveloped the entire hall.
"Quick! Bless the gate with a holy place! Chen Kai shouted at the others, of course he shouted Su Wan and Hu Lansi Fei Yuan. Of all the people, only four of them were able to free up their hands to free the Holy Place, although two of the four belonged to the Temple of Dawn. The two belong to the Twilight Temple, but there is not much difference in the Sacred Place, the lowest-level divine skill of the temple professionals. After all, the only use of this magic is to fill a certain item or area with divine power, dispel evil powers, and give the temple class a slight home field advantage.
At the same time, because they both belonged to one of the three goddesses, the divine power that Chen Yi summoned from the altar that belonged to the goddess of life did not conflict with the power of the goddess of nature left over from the temple itself, but on the contrary, they fused with each other to burst out with more powerful power. The originally gray and dilapidated chapel became sacred and quiet under the action of two forces, and a natural breath full of life began to permeate the hall. It's just that this aura is an out-and-out poison for those who are rushing through the dark shadows that are blessed with the divine power blessed on the gate, because this power is stimulating the power of the divine pattern contained in the entire temple, allowing the natural power accumulated for thousands of years to gradually radiate and transform into a rich and vibrant divine natural power.
It's just that because this temple is located in Teramis, there is not much natural power accumulated, after all, the power emitted by the demon lord after his death is enough to destroy a qiē. If it weren't for the three Ancient Trees of Life in the way. Perhaps the entire Denzel Forest has become a demonic hell. But now the situation is not much better. A large amount of demonic power has completely changed the rules of nature in the forest, and the power emitted by the church now is completely the result of the unconsumed natural power accumulated thousands of years ago. Only an elven ancient capital like Terramis has the capital to make a small church consume the power of nature that has not been consumed for thousands of years under the accumulation of thousands of years ago, and Terramis is not a national capital, but only a companion capital.
Of course, the environment of the Denzel Forest is another major reason, after all, the forest was only closed in the first place, and it was not cursed yet. The forces of nature continued to be generated and accumulated, until the demonic forces began to erode away, and this accumulation was stopped. But even so, the natural forces accumulated in this church could not last a night. So a few elven mages had to start using various methods to start mobilizing the forces of nature. And the method they use is the vein of the ancient tree of life that every elven city relies on.
All temples of the goddess of nature are basically built on the roots of the Ancient Tree of Life or on the body of the tree, and only in this way can they rely on the power of the Ancient Tree of Life to draw the power of nature, and at the same time use the power of the temple to protect the Ancient Tree of Life. It can be said that in the past, the shrine of the goddess of nature and the ancient tree of life were in a symbiotic relationship. Therefore, even if it is a small church, it is built on the roots of a natural ancient tree. It's just that those few ancient trees of life have been destroyed after all, and they have also been eroded by demonic power, so even if you use the secret method to use the roots of the ancient trees as veins to start extracting natural power, there is not a lot of power that can be extracted. The most important thing is that this method can lead the wolf into the house and attract the evil demonic power to the house. However, under the joint control of several elven mages, this situation did not occur, because they did not extract a lot of natural power, only a little bit.
Because there isn't actually much force of nature to be drawn from the whole of Teramis, and if there is one, it must be the kind of distorted force of nature. This kind of power, even if it is extracted, can only bring disaster to the people, not the help they hoped for. At the same time, Nero Aru poured some of her remaining fountain of life into the dry pool beneath the statue of Goddess Nature, and poured an even larger amount of water into it. The fountain of life is diluted by a large amount of water, and the forces of nature that have been attracted flow directly into the pool.
When the drinking water that was enough to sustain Chen Kai and them for at least a week was poured into the pool, the originally dull statue of the goddess of nature suddenly slowly emitted a faint luster. At the same time, the originally scarce power of nature began to be released in a steady stream, and then combined with the divine power of the goddess of life summoned by Chen Yitong Guò altar to become a force of nature full of vitality.
Bathed in this force of nature, everyone felt extremely comfortable, and the consumed body was almost recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even a legendary powerhouse like Nero and Ellu could feel that their bodies were becoming more comfortable. Although this feeling is far weaker than eating the Fountain of Life, even a deep breath for a day is not necessarily as strong as the effect of drinking a drop of the Fountain of Life directly. But it's definitely good to be in this environment for a long time, but everyone knows that such a thing is simply impossible. This is impossible because the goddess of nature has not shown her miracles for a long time, so much so that now the temples of the goddess of nature have fallen. Everyone believed that the goddess had either fallen or disappeared. At the same time, Chen Yi belongs to the sacrifice of the goddess of life after all, even if the goddess of nature and the goddess of life belong to the three sisters of the goddess, it is impossible for their temples to be merged together.
For Chen Kai, the most important thing for them now was not to think about how to enjoy this aura in the future, but to think about how long this small temple could block those things outside. Although the power of the entire temple has been completely stimulated, the goddess of nature has been silent for a long time after all, so even if the temple has been restored now, it cannot attract any attention from the goddess of nature. If she is alive or awake, then it is time to respond to the temple where the faithful pray, not the temple that is isolated in the forest of Denzel.
Therefore, even though the temple had been protected by the powerful force of nature, Chen Kai and the others still worked hard to bless the sacred places in various places. Although this small temple has survived for thousands of years, it is still very strong. Because even if it's just a chapel-like temple in the outskirts of Telamis. But it's still built to a fairly high specification. This small shrine covers an area of at least several hundred square meters, but there are only two doors in the front and back. Therefore, when Chen Kai and the others completely sealed the front door with divine power, they needed to start blessing the divine power on the back door.
It's just that when Chen Kai and the others panted and opened the door of the room leading to the back door, the first thing they faced was that the wooden door was completely decayed. After all, it is impossible for this temple to replace all the local doors with metal. Although this is the companion capital of the Elven Empire. However, no chapel-level temple would have its doors replaced with iron doors inside. Therefore, when Chen Kai opened the small door, the wooden door was directly shattered into countless pieces. Then he saw the countless black shadows in the room leading to the back door looking at him with strange eyes. These strange shadows shrouded in a layer of black mist all over their bodies had extremely strange faces, because there were only two organs on their entire faces, a pair of eyes and a mouth.
When the doorknob in Chen Kai's hand appeared in front of these strange creatures, the only thing he felt was a chill from head to toe. The feeling of hundreds of dark eyes staring at him was quite shocking. The most important thing is that these black shadows are all crammed into one room, and if it weren't for the incomparably rich natural divine power in the hall that blocked them, maybe they would have rushed in. But Chen Kai's action allowed these black shadows to find a breakthrough, so their extremely evil eyes instantly stared at the behemoth that Chen Kai suddenly opened the gap.
Hundreds of eyes stared at him with extremely evil gazes, and at that moment, Chen Kai felt that his legs were a little weak, and his whole body seemed to be imprisoned in an instant. Chen Kai felt that his breathing was extremely difficult, and the breath he exhaled exhaled emitted a freezing sound in the air as if he had encountered a cold snap. Although Chen Kai didn't know the strength of these monsters, he had already felt the power of their special skill, the evil gaze, which was enough to make a weak-willed person pee their pants in an instant. If someone else stood in Chen Kai's current position, then there would be only one result, which would be to be scared to death in an instant, or be frightened and unable to move, and be killed by the subsequent attack.
But Chen Kai completely recovered at an instant when he was almost unable to move, and his heart began to beat wildly when he almost went into arrest, and at the same time, his hands were protected in front of him, and the fighting qi gushed out wildly, forming a layer of fighting flames on the surface of his body. At the same time, the black shadows in front of Chen Kai opened their mouths in front of him, and clusters of black evil power shot towards Chen Kai's body. At the moment when Chen Kai's Dou Flame formed, it shot out and collided with the Dou Flame he unfolded, colliding with layers of ripples. Chen Kai's fighting energy was frantically consuming, tens of thousands of points of fighting qi were almost consumed in less than ten seconds, consuming such a large amount of fighting qi in an instant, Chen Kai felt a fierce panting, but he didn't dare to let go. As soon as he was relieved, then the result would definitely be completely devoured by these evil qi waves in front of him, and Chen Kai didn't know what the result would be when the time came, the only thing he knew was that he must not let these evil forces break through.
He mobilized all the power he could muster, and the fighting energy formed a fighting flame on the surface of his body, and the magic power gathered on his hands under his control. When he waved it down with both hands, it formed a holy flame that was released outward, and this holy flame spread outward in a fan-shape, instantly igniting some black shadows that tried to get close to Chen Kai. Just like the black shadow that Chen Kai killed in the first place, these terrifying and strange creatures are extremely fragile despite their terrifying abilities. There was no way to suppress the gentle burning of the holy flame composed of divine power. It's just that in order to maintain these holy flames, Chen Kai's mana consumption instantly began to become huge, and less than half of the mana that had just recovered almost dropped by nearly seventy percent in the time of one breath.
This qiē was almost completed in less than a few seconds, because Chen Kai's huge body blocked the view, so the people behind him didn't see those terrifying black shadows at all. The only thing they saw was that Chen Kai's fighting spirit was somehow frantically consumed to form a fighting flame, and then they saw Chen Kai's fighting energy fluctuating violently and the movement of his hands waving.
When they saw the monsters that Chen Kai had killed in the battle log, they understood what Chen Kai's actions were for. Then Chen Yi, who was originally praying to bless the power of the altar, quickly unfolded the aura of divine purification, and at the same time, Wang Feifei, who assisted Chen Yi, also quickly rushed to Chen Kai's side and began to continuously release divine purification spells to attack those black shadows.
At the same time, the others quickly took out the wooden planks and put them together, and there was no doubt that it was impossible to enter the room at this moment and close the back door of the temple. The only thing they could do was to make a new door out of the planks that blessed the sacred place, and finish this thing before Chen Kai and Chen Yi could no longer support it. Fortunately, Chen Kai: The planks in their backpacks are not small. It only takes a little assembly to form a plank large enough to close the door. It's just that being able to form doesn't mean that you can complete the closed task. After all, although the original wooden door is decayed, the lines on it can still form a whole with the entire temple, so that the power in the entire hall can form a closed space of divine natural power.
Although the wooden planks of their current temporary work can also block those strange black shadows after being blessed with the Divine Cause, because there are no patterns on them that are carved in the temple, there is a gap in the divine natural power in the entire temple. Everyone could expect more and more dark shadows to gather here, storm the wooden door, and break through into the temple.
When the crowd stuffed the planks into the threshold and sealed them completely. Chen Kai can finally take a break. It's just that he has rest, but others don't. Others who were able to bless the sacred place began to bless the entire plank with divine power. The power of white has begun to develop in the direction of white and gold because it is rich enough. However, in the other direction, a large number of evil qi waves continued to spray from the mouths of those black shadows onto the wooden plank, eroding the wooden plank and causing the divine power on the gate to begin to decrease rapidly.
Chen Kai knew all about this situation, but there was nothing they could do. Fortunately, at this time, the few elven mages who had recovered from the city finally had their hands free, and after checking it, they immediately began to ask Chen Kai and the others to make a wooden board again, and then sketched some lines on the wooden board with a pen infused with magic ink. It is very difficult for players to restore spell patterns in a short period of time, but for legendary elven mages like Nero and Ellu, it is very simple. Because they have been immersed in the knowledge of magic circles for at least a hundred years, even drawing a line with their hands is much straighter than what many player mages draw with a ruler.
Therefore, the pattern restoration work, which was very difficult for Xu Fei and the other spellcasters, was completely completed in less than ten minutes under the hands of a few elven mages. Not only is it completed, but it is also more detailed than the original, in order to enhance the bearing effect, several elven mages also draw defensive strengthened magic patterns and solid magic patterns in the void positions.
When the entire plank is fixed to the door frame, the original plank is pushed out by at least a few centimeters, making the plank destroyed by the evil force even faster. However, the new planks were tightly connected to the entire temple pattern, and the flowing force caused wisps of faint green light to be produced on the planks.
When the black shadows in that room turned the door panel that had blocked the door of Chen Kai and them into black ash at the beginning, they did not hesitate to attack the new wooden board, only to hit it headfirst. At the same time, the evil qi waves released by these black shadows bombarded the wooden plank, but it was directly dispersed by the shining green light, as long as the force of nature in the temple did not completely disappear, then the wooden board was indestructible.
So those dark shadows who tried to hit the plank with brute force ended up being torn apart, because the plank had grown completely with the temple walls under the magic of a few elven mages. That is to say, the plank is now completely integrated with the temple, and although it is still the most vulnerable part, it is not possible for these disembodied black shadows to destroy it. It was only at this time that Chen Kai and the others were really safe, or temporarily safe. Although Chen Kai and the others could still feel the crashing sound from the temple gate and wooden planks, they knew that it would be impossible for them to rush into the temple with these strange black shadows alone until no other monsters appeared.
In fact, there is another place in the temple that is open, and that is above the statue of the goddess nature, where there is a patio where you can clearly see out. If those dark shadows entered from here, they would not even have to wear through the door, but this was the most powerful place in the entire temple, and no god would allow anyone else to appear above him. Therefore, don't look at the emptiness here, but in fact, any black shadow as long as it comes close will be instantly turned into ashes by the terrifying divine force of nature, even if the goddess of nature falls into silence at this moment, the remaining divine power of the temple will protect the goddess's idol from defilement.
