Chapter 500: Entering the Secret Realm
The White Knight, who is opposed to the source of the Seven Sins of the Fallen Knight, practices the seven virtues of integrity, temperance, generosity, hope, bravery, tolerance, and humility.
The military system of any country, in order to hone harder bones and strengthen muscles, will eat a lot to replenish the body's consumption.
Without a lot of financial support, you can't supplement enough animal protein to make up for the calories consumed by daily squeezing exercises, resulting in muscle fibers tearing and repairing and tearing up the strengthening process of dying in the middle of the process, and you can't exercise muscles full of explosive power.
The same is true for bone exercises, which are repeated crushing repairs and re-crushing, gradually increasing bone density, the best of which can approach or even exceed the hardness of steel.
However, when the papal precursors were conducting basic exercises, they always maintained a moderate attitude in their daily diet in order to avoid overeating and stimulating the sin of overeating.
Therefore, in general, as soon as these knights of virtue start to take the vows, their physical strengthening speed is not the fastest, nor is it the slowest, but maintains a medium-to-high level.
When they encounter the beast-like Descendants of the South Asian Subcontinent in a strange country, they can only use the tempered standard long sword, the special skin as hard as dragon scales, and the exoskeleton of cold steel, because the muscle explosiveness and bones of these reserve paladins are no match for the Divine Descendants.
Fortunately, the High God, despite his slumber, can still shelter devout believers, especially the pre-paladins who are spiritually fanatical.
The standard long sword coated with secret anointing oil, under the stimulation and resonance of the holy power, the sword body shines with a soft white light, which invisibly enhances the sharpness of the blade, and at the same time, it also makes the strength of the Virtue Knight become long and strong, and it can explode from time to time.
Moreover, these preparatory paladins have a high tacit understanding, and the three of them are a triangular battle formation formed by each other's horns, entangled with the gods who fight in a disorderly manner, not only do not fall behind, but begin to seize the upper hand.
If it weren't for the ghost wizards who drove the cursed elves in, cast all kinds of vicious curses on these preparatory paladins, and acted as accomplices to the gods, the Holy See's Knights of Punishment would have been able to lock in the victory a long time ago.
Originally, the black-clothed priests and inquisitors could have dealt with these wizards, but the Brahmin Order, which had been biting their tails tightly, took advantage of the Holy See's efforts to deal with the miscellaneous soldiers who wanted to fish in troubled waters, and immediately accelerated into the mountains, forcing these high-ranking clergy to divide their troops and blow the horn of assembly.
The Punishment Knights broke out in a great success, and the corpses of the nine gods of the South Asian subcontinent were snatched and taken away by them, and gradually separated from the battlefield, moving closer to the clergy who lacked the protection of force.
As for the rest of the gods, since they come from different gods in different countries, unless their brothers and sisters of kinship are killed, they do not have a lot of enthusiasm for this battle.
Therefore, when they found out that the Knights of Punishment had the intention of ending the battle, they were very satisfied with the reality that they did not have to fight to the death, and they also began to disengage and stay away from this unprovoked battle.
The rest of the ghost wizards, without the warriors with high offensive and high defense, high skin and thick flesh in front, absolutely did not dare to fight against the Holy Light Protector and the reserve paladins who were immune to most curses, and the first group to end the battle was these people.
Their bodies emitted a gray-black aura, mixed with wisps of blood. Cursed spirits of evil shapes and evil shapes, wrapped around the hands and feet of the wizard, fluttering in the black and red aura. They were thin-haired children, with only huge heads and skinny upper bodies, and a long tail vertebrae that lifted forward to hold the withered black intestine that hung down from the abdominal cavity. From the outside, it no longer has the characteristics of a spiritual thing, and it has been reduced to something similar to a ghost.
Cursed Elves are eager to suck the essence of life and make up for their missing bodies, and they are armed with spikes and bone hammers to transmit the wizard's curse to their targets, but the Virtuous Knight with the Ring has a high degree of curse resistance and can avoid most evil curses, and as for the Preparatory Paladin with more than four rings, they will even have armor that reflects the curse because their souls begin to be sanctified.
The power of the curse reversed, causing the elves to repulse, causing the wizard to explode on the spot, successfully tested the high-ranking members of the Virtue Knight, and also reminded the gods who were advancing and retreating with him - these people are not easy to mess with.
It's a pity that in order to restore the glory of the ancestral gods and gain more power, the arrogant gods are not willing to admit the strength of the enemy at all, so after a short break from the battle, they simply pack up and bandage, and immediately follow the messy footprints into the mountains with the Knights of Punishment who are gradually moving away.
The Brahmin Order had no intention of stalling in circles in the mountains, and their eagerness could be seen in the full speed ahead. This made the fully equipped Knights of Punishment confused, and they had to abandon their mounts and heavy equipment, and only carry three days' worth of dry food and water in order to catch up with their targets.
On the way, the clergy, who were physically exhausted, became an additional burden for the knights of virtue, and in some dangerous places such as canyons and cliffs, the necessary anti-ambush methods such as detection and detection traps once again slowed down the speed of the Holy See.
So much so that when the Brahmanical Order arrived at the destination of the trip, Kailash, the main peak of the Gangdis Mountains, they were the only maverick forces, and everyone else stayed far away in the mountains.
Kailash, the holy mountain of Brahmanism, has been covered with snow for thousands of years, resembling a huge crystal diamond, surrounded by rolling mountains, like an eight-petal lotus flower, guarding this mountain with deep aura.
It is said that the Sanskrit Sumeru Mountain refers to this mountain, so the "back" of the mountain has a small world of great perfection, which is Shangri-La, a paradise, a paradise on earth, and the void of Kunlun.
Therefore, the entrance is not only the crypt at the foot of the mountain, but also other portals that can be entered, Lu Bin at this time according to the record of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Classic of the West Mountain", the Chongwu Mountain on the south bank of the Yellow River is located, and the position of the hill of Kunlun is roughly locked in the capital of the emperor.
The distance from the Gangdis Mountains is separated by a Tibetan Plateau, but it points to the entrance to the Kunlun Void, which is indeed within the locked range.
Lu Bin prepared ten pieces of jade and a large amount of millet rice, according to the ancient sacrificial etiquette, put on a sheep's head mask, buried the jade under the ground, piled up a hill with millet rice, and offered sacrifices to the mountain gods of the West Mountain, and successfully obtained the admission ticket.
At the same time, the Brahmanical Order also poured the prepared "nectar" into the crypt, and the great god Shiva's divine grace caused the crypt to erupt with light, sweeping everyone and sending them all to the secret realm of Shangri-La.
In Lu Bin's eyes, the secret realm is the void of Kunlun, the holy mountain of the ancient gods of mountains and seas, its bottom is surrounded by black water, the mountainside is burning with flames, the top of the mountain is constantly blown by the wind, only the highest peak beyond the clouds, there is a faint majestic Langyuan Heavenly Palace, green trees and branches.
However, in the eyes of the Brahmanical Order, the secret realm of Shangri-La is a large mountain surrounded by the Aral Sea, where the gods live on the top of the mountain, and the gods who are responsible for guarding them and various artifacts are hidden on the mountainside. The four islands floating in the sea were the abode of mortals, and only the high castes were eligible to enter. Below the Aral Sea and the earth are the places where the demons who rebelled against the gods and the fallen gods suffered, and below that was the hell that punished the evildoers, who were reduced to all kinds of animals and even hungry ghosts, and suffered from eternal suffering.
The Brahmin elders took off the Seven Treasures that had been blessed by the great god Shiva and threw them into the brackish water, only to see a ball of bright moonlight rising into the sky, and the Seven Treasures that sank to the bottom of the sea turned into a golden ship and slowly came out of the water.
Everyone watched this scene with joy, but with the elder's reprimand, the carefully selected order immediately regained its calm, lined up according to the high status and noble blood, and boarded the crescent-like golden ship one after another, shaking the oars and sailing towards the holy mountain.
