Just after noon, a sharp siren sounded from inside Loppelé's makeshift camp, and a reporting Celestial Cultist told him that the two outlanders who had been locked in their cells had escaped.

With an angry face, Lopelle followed his entourage to the cell, and the scene was exactly what the herald had said: two guards were tied hand and foot in an iron cell, while Ling Wenxuan and Song Zixi were long gone.

"You useless things, I didn't know that someone robbed the prison last night, and I didn't find out until today, so I'm angry!" Lopelle had bruises on his head, and when he turned around, he slapped the disciple a few times, "Immediately send someone to seriously search the camp and every village in the main altar, if you can't catch those two outsiders, you don't have to come back to see me." ”

"My subordinates understand, and now we should do it immediately. After that, the believer was about to lead the rest of the believers out of the cell, but was stopped by a purple-shirted woman in front of the door, who was Yin Youning.

"Why do you have to bother the sect leader to deal with these ants, besides, has the sect leader forgotten that you have more important things to do?" Yin Youning sneered a few times and said, "Kalia has now been sent to the altar of the Heavenly Sect by me, as long as the sect leader gives an order, the 'Apocalypse Sacrifice' can be opened at any time." ”

"It turns out that you had a plan, but it is puzzling that under my strict precautions, those strangers can still save their companions. Lopele's eyes rolled and he looked at Yin Youning suspiciously, "If you want to stop me, isn't it the best choice to rescue Kalia by the way? ”

"It only speaks of the selfish nature of the character of the stranger, and the place where I hid Kalia is too secret for them to find. ”

"No...... There is another possibility, that is, there is an inner ghost among us, and some of the guards are deliberately diverted. The look on Loppelle's face became even more solemn.

"Are you doubting me?" the corners of Yin Youning's mouth showed a trace of contempt.

"I only hope that you Tianzhao Sect will not do everything so desperately, when we first made the contract, we had already said that we would take what we needed. With that, Lopelle slowly passed by Yin Youning, pushed the door and left the room.

When Lo Pele arrived at the altar of the Heavenly Sect, the surrounding area was already full of onlookers, and the members of the Heavenly Sect gathered around the entire altar in a circle to maintain order on the scene. Kalia stands in the center of the altar, with a leopard-print brazier in front of her, and a Celestial Cultist wearing a ghost mask on the left and right, and the four stone pillars on the altar corner symbolize the four celestial phenomena of extreme darkness, pure yang, dark yellow, and violent wind.

Facing the noise under the altar, Kalia trembled with fear, she had already recognized Ling Wenxuan's brother on the altar that day, and had also heard that Ling's brother's companions had rescued him, and now she could only secretly pray that they could successfully save her.

After being baptized by the priests and worshipped by the faithful, Lopelle walked up to the altar and came to the villagers in a black robe with a full expression.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please be silent, for the sake of the Apocalypse is to be summoned here today. Lopelle coughed, "This ritual should have been completed the day before yesterday, but due to the invasion of a few strangers and the destruction of the ritual, I have already arrested them, but I didn't want them to escape, these people are destroying the blessing of the gods to the village of Grancia, and they are blaspheming the blessings of the gods to you, can you tolerate them continuing to behave like this?"

The crowd heard angry voices such as "...... must not be tolerated", "hang them ......", and "don't let them leave this ......".

Lappelle once again stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet: "I hereby announce that there is a great reward for catching those strangers, and those who try to shield them will be expelled from the village of Grancia forever. ”

After a commotion, Lopelle continued his speech, his eyes scanning the crowd for the strangers.

Seeing Lopelle's gaze sweeping past him, a slender woman hurriedly lowered the brim of her hat.

"Xun'er, when are we going to do it? The Apocalypse Ritual will begin soon. Lan Lingxiang touched the fake beard on his lips in annoyance, very dissatisfied with his cloth dress.

She shifted her body and replied, "There's no news from Father Priest yet, so I think we'd better wait and see." ”

"Oh yes, when is it time to wait for that scourge of Ling, if you wait any longer, Lopelle's plot will succeed. ”

"Yes! It's important to save people. Yuna also chimed in, and turned to Elusson: "Brother Blacksmith, you quickly think of a way, Lopelle wants to hurt our friend." ”

Eluson clasped his hands and looked calm: "Don't worry, my men are already mixed in with the villagers, waiting for me to give orders at any time." ”

In the middle of their conversation, Lopelle's speech had ended, and the Apocalypse Rite had officially begun. I saw him come to the leopard-print brazier, open his hands and pray to the sky, and then took out the dragon-patterned dagger from his cuff.

No matter how desperately Kalia resisted, the two Devil-Faced pushed her next to Lopelle, the bright light of the blades stinging her eyes.

The Qixu sword on Gui Xun'er's waist was half out of the scabbard, and just as she was nervous, a man pushed her hand, and the Qixu sword immediately withdrew its scabbard.

"I advise you not to be too reckless, or you will miss out on a good show. This person was Ling Wenxuan, and I saw that he was wearing a black Tianyao Sect uniform, without the slightest disguise, as if telling Lopelle that the person he was looking for was here.

"Do you still have a conscience? Can you understand the pain of Sylna as a mother?" Lan Lingxiang was so angry that his fake beard was crooked to the side, "If you don't want to save Kalia, forget it, you still have to watch from the wall, are the dogmas in your "Teachings" that persuade people to accumulate good and virtuous words all nonsense?"

"Calm down...... Don't be impulsive, listen to me first. Ling Wenxuan and Yi Lusen glanced at each other, and said with a slight smile, "This "Teaching" must be observed, and you can't miss it when there is a good show, don't you say?"

So, Ling Wenxuan told everyone about asking Lin Yaoxi to replace the real miracle ring with a fake miracle ring.

"You're really there! You had already figured it out. Lan Lingxiang excitedly patted Ling Wenxuan's shoulder, which immediately attracted the attention of Lo Pele on the altar.

Facing Ling Wenxuan's calm look, Lo Pele's heart was full of doubts and uneasiness, but once the ritual began, there was no need to stop.

Anyway, the area around the altar was already heavily guarded by the Heavenly Gift Sect disciples, and they couldn't find the slightest opportunity to take advantage of it. Lopelle thought so and slashed hard at Kalia's fingers.

With a scream, blood gushed from Kalia's fingertips, and Lopelle pressed her right hand to move directly above the leopard-print brazier, letting the blood drip to the bottom of the basin. Once enough blood had been collected, Lopelle pushed her aside, then removed the Ring of Miracles from her index finger and threw it into the brazier.

The light converged from the top of the four stone pillars to the center of the brazier, and after a few seconds, it turned into a pillar of skylight and went straight into the sky, and the barrier that was originally invisible to the naked eye became a hemispherical diaphragm revealed, and the top of the arc was connected to the pillar of light.

Everyone was so shocked by this scene that they didn't see a glance, and the Tianci Sect disciples raised their hands to worship the heavens, while the villagers shielded the sudden wind with their hands and looked towards the top of the pillar of light.

Lopelle looked at Ling Wenxuan proudly, thinking that his expression should at least be anger and despair, but he still pointed to the sky leisurely.

A huge crack opened in the sky, and black clouds poured out from the top of the pillar of light, gradually spreading out larger and larger in all directions, and began to rotate under the action of some force, covering the entire sky of the village of Grancia. A bolt of lightning swept through the clouds, striking a Heaven-Sent Cultist not far from the altar, only to see that his entire body was burned by the flames and turned to ashes in an instant. But this was only a prelude, and soon more lightning fell from the sky, scaring the nearby villagers into scattering, but the strange thing was that the lightning only attacked the Celestial Sect cultists, while the ordinary villagers were unscathed.

"Damn, what the hell is going on, what have you done as a heretic?" Lopele yelled at Ling Wenxuan under the altar as he stepped back.

"You should ask those people from the Wandering Sky Adventure Group. As soon as Ling Wenxuan's words fell, Song Zixi, Shao Yan, Xue Shaoling, and Lin Yaoxi, who were hidden around, took out their weapons and killed the altar, and Yi Lusen also whistled when he saw this, and ordered his villagers to join the battle.

When he saw that Youna also wanted to go over to help, Ling Wenxuan hurriedly grabbed her and said, "Hey, what are you doing with a Salo, just leave it to the Langtian Adventure Group here, you, Xun'er, and the eldest lady over there, you go and evacuate the surrounding villagers, so that they don't panic." ”

"You called me, but I don't seem to hear what you're talking about?" Lan Lingxiang stuck out his tongue at Ling Wenxuan, and took out the Heavenly Hat and shot the head of a Heavenly Gift Sect disciple who attacked him.

Hey, what a disobedient lady. Ling Wenxuan thought about it, so he simply took Youna's hand and led her to the back of a big tree nearby.

In terms of numbers, the Celestial Cultists had an absolute advantage, but thanks to the help of lightning, soon only Lopelle and Kalia beside him were left on the altar.

Elucon and the rest of the Wandering Sky Adventure Group ascended to the altar, and he let out a long sigh and said, "Village Chief, please give up! ”

"Failure? Oh, no...... I haven't taken revenge on the Tianyao Sect yet, how can I lose!" Lopelle looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, taking Kalia hostage when everyone was not paying attention, and pointed a knife at Ling Wenxuan and roared, "You lackey of the Tianyao Sect, the leader of the demons, you come up for me, I have something to ask you." ”

"You wait here for a moment. Ling Wenxuan winked at Youna beside him, then jumped onto the altar with a winged wind, walked to the leopard-print brazier, took out the ring inside and sneered at Lo Pele, "Do you want to know why your carefully planned 'Apocalypse' ritual failed? Because this ring is fake, I asked Blacksmith Yi to copy it in the shape of the Miracle Ring I drew that day, and it is precisely because this fake ring affects the Miracle Ring to maintain the divine power of the whole village and return the living corpse to death." ”

"What about the real Ring of Miracles?"

"When the people from the Langtian Adventure Group came to rescue me yesterday, I had already asked Lin Yaoxi to steal it from you and exchange it for the real thing. Ling Wenxuan took the real miracle ring handed over by Lin Yaoxi and brought it to Lopelle's eyes, "See clearly, this is your miracle ring, isn't it very similar?"

Lopelle was so angry that his head was bruised: "Elusson, you dare to do this to me, you must know that without me, your brother would not be resurrected at all." ”

Eluson clenched his fists and said, "No, it is because of you that I lost my beloved wife, and the people in our village have sacrificed too much for the obsession in my heart, and it's time for you to pay for it." ”

Lopelle's face became extremely distorted: "You don't understand at all, the people of the Tianyao Sect are all villains and hypocrites who are full of benevolence and morality, and only I can destroy the Tianyao Sect and eliminate harm for the world." ”

"No matter what the people of the Tianyao Sect did to you before, please let this little girl go, otherwise you will blame me for being polite. Song Zixi pulled his bow and aimed it at Lopelle, and the people around him began to press forward step by step.

Just as Lopelle retreated to the edge of the altar and Song Zixi was about to make a move, a golden lightning bolt fell from the sky, hitting Lopelle's head.

Seeing this, Ling Wenxuan hurriedly rescued Kalia with lightning speed, and let Lopele fall from the altar and be burned to ashes by the flames.

"Brother Ling, I finally saw you. Kalia hugged Ling Wenxuan, and finally couldn't help crying.

"Hey, I said little sister, obviously I was more proactive in saving you than this priest, why don't you thank me!" Song Zixi clasped his hands, feeling that his limelight had been robbed by Ling Wenxuan.

"Who are you? I don't know you!"

Kalia's smiling answer almost made Song Zixi faint in embarrassment, but Ling Wenxuan thought that the most important thing at the moment was how to explain all this to the villagers, so he handed the miracle ring back to Lin Yaoxi: "Take good care of this ring, bring it to Father Li Jikui, and complete the commission he gave to you." ”

Lin Yaoxi took the ring and looked at Ling Wenxuan suspiciously: "Isn't it, you are such a good person, you came up with the method of changing the ring secretly, this is the Ring of Miracles?"

"I, Ling Wenxuan, rely on my own ability to fight the world, and I don't need such a powerful magic weapon. Ling Wenxuan let go of Kalia and stood up and said, "Besides, do I look like that kind of person who is greedy for merit, we don't need to rob you of the business of the Langtian Adventure Group." ”

"That's right, this girl believes you for the time being. Lin Yaoxi smiled and put the Miracle Ring back into her skirt pocket, then jumped off the altar and looked at the ashes of Lopelle that were gradually blown away by the breeze, "Actually, when I stole the Miracle Ring in Lopelle's room that day, I found that he was also a living corpse, but I didn't have a chance to tell you." ”

"Yes, Lopelle probably died long before he got the Ring of Miracles, he is also a poor man, but what he did does not deserve our sympathy, and this heavenly punishment is also his due retribution, junior sister, don't think about it too much. Xue Shaoling said and patted Lin Yaoxi's shoulder to show comfort.

The thunder receded, the black clouds slowly dissipated, the sky returned to light, and the terrified villagers came to the altar of ruin as the turmoil subsided.
