—------------------—
Qian Daoliu was indeed startled by the priest's divine power at first, but after calming down and sensing it carefully, he found that although this person possessed divine power, he did not have the unattainable feeling of an angel god.
Could this person be from the Soul Palace?
Like many others, Qian Daoliu couldn't help but think of the Soul Palace whenever a powerful stranger appeared.
Aside from the Soul Palace, which has brought about numerous miracles, what other place has the power to produce someone with such divine strength?
Qian Daoliu even suspected that the Soul Hall, like the Spirit Hall, possessed a divine succession, and that the gods they worshipped might still be alive.
When the priest gave the order in an imperious tone, Qian Daoliu became somewhat angry. Although he had shown mercy at times, he was by no means a pushover.
He had a smooth and successful life, and even his nemesis Tang Chen had never spoken to him like that.
"First, answer me, who are you?"
For once, Qian Daoliu displayed the aura of the King of the Sky, and his old eyes brightened.
The priest gave Qian Daoliu a cold look.
"Why bother? Do I have to take action before you'll cooperate obediently?"
The priest had no intention of explaining that he was a priest from the divine realm, much less that he was sent by the god of fire.
If someone helps Fire God by using his reputation, where is their value?
A red light flashed in the priest's hand, and a flame, like a long snake, coiled around Qian Daoliu.
The flames, wielded with divine power, exceeded the limits of flames that ordinary soul masters could control, but Qian Daoliu actually breathed a sigh of relief.
The priest's strength was indeed extraordinary, but not enough to overwhelm Qian Daoliu.
As a successor to the divine position, Qian Daoliu may not be able to become a god, but his strength is still top-notch, not to mention that he still has trump cards in hand.
The hall was filled with intense light, and in a flash, the fire serpent controlled by the priest was cut in half.
The priest's pupils contracted, and then he saw the Angelic Holy Sword in Qian Daoliu's hand.
"A divine artifact?"
The priest had almost thought he was about to find the Fire God Sword and was quite excited, but then he realized that it was definitely not the Fire God Sword.
How could a human faction possess a divine artifact?
This priest was not from Douluo Continent, and he did not do any detailed research on Douluo Continent before descending to the mortal realm.
Among the many planes of the divine realm, there are not many planes with divine succession, and there are even fewer lower realm forces that can directly control divine artifacts.
The priest subconsciously judged that this Spirit Hall definitely possessed a divine succession, and most likely it was the divine succession of a dead god.
This discovery excited the priest even more. Finding the Fire God Sword was the Fire God's mission, but obtaining a divine succession would be far better than any reward from the Fire God.
After all, no matter how much the God of Fire rewards him, he can't possibly give him a divine position. And if he could obtain this divine position and even become a true god, that would be his greatest hope.
Although many gods have very strict requirements for their successors, if the attributes do not match, there is basically no chance of obtaining the divine position.
However, as seasoned veterans of the divine realm, the priests knew that this was not absolute. Some deities were special and did not have as many requirements regarding the compatibility of their successors.
Take the Sea God, for example. Tang San has two martial souls, one is the Clear Sky Hammer and the other is the Blue Silver Grass. What does that have to do with the sea? In terms of suitability, isn't Poseidon much stronger than Tang San? But the Sea God just happened to take a liking to Tang San and insisted on passing on his godhood to him.
"Where did you get this divine artifact from?" the priest questioned.
Every priest in the divine realm desires to become a god; becoming a priest is merely a second-best option.
Qian Daoliu keenly noticed the fleeting greed in the priest's eyes, which made him even more dissatisfied.
As the guardian of the Angel God, Qian Daoliu's faith in the Angel God is truly devout. The Angel God's position can only be inherited by the owner of the Angel Martial Soul, and anyone else's covetousness is a desecration of the Angel God.
"After you die by my sword, then you can question this sword."
Qian Daoliu could not become the Angel God, but he became the Angel God's guardian, which allowed him to briefly control the Angel Holy Sword.
Although he doesn't possess divine power like a priest, with the angel's holy sword in hand, the gap between the two isn't too great.
With wings spread, Qian Daoliu, wielding the Angelic Holy Sword, arrived before the priest in the blink of an eye.
Having not used his full strength for many years, the world had almost forgotten his reputation as the King of the Sky. Qian Daoliu's sudden move greatly excited Jin E.
He was someone who had witnessed Qian Daoliu's overwhelming power back then. Although Tang Chen of the Haotian Sect was his equal, Qian Daoliu's brilliance still shone brightly.
"snort."
The priest was clearly angered by Qian Daoliu.
Before the angelic sword struck, blazing flames surged forth, turning the sky crimson, and the priest himself seemed to transform into a ball of flame, merging into it.
"field?"
Qian Daoliu was no naive little soul master who had never seen the world, and he immediately realized that this was a special realm.
Once trapped within the domain, flames swept towards Qian Daoliu from all directions, as if to burn him to ashes.
The priest had previously only wanted to use the Spirit Hall's power to investigate the whereabouts of the Fire God Sword, but now, he only wanted to obtain a divine position.
In particular, he sensed the power of light and some fire attributes contained within the Angelic Holy Sword.
He inherently possesses the fire attribute, and it's not impossible for him to transform towards the direction of light and holiness. Although it's still unknown what kind of divine position inheritance the Spirit Hall possesses, it's at least not the kind of divine position that clashes with his attribute.
This discovery made him even more eager to obtain the divine inheritance. Although whether he could pass the divine test was still unknown, he did not want to give up even the slightest hope.
Streams of fire snakes coiled around Qian Daoliu from all directions. If it weren't for the Angelic Holy Sword in his hand, Qian Daoliu would have been in a terrible predicament.
Even now, Qian Daoliu feels that they can't continue fighting like this.
The quality of divine power is far superior to that of soul power; in a protracted battle, he would absolutely not be able to outlast this person.
To defeat him, the only way is to forcefully break the deadlock using the attack power of the Angelic Holy Sword.
After severing several fiery serpents, Qian Daoliu's wings suddenly flapped, carrying him into the sky and soaring to higher ground.
"Where do you think you're going?"
The priest instinctively tried to stop it, but the next moment, a dazzling light came from the sky.
The Angelic Holy Sword in Qian Daoliu's hand radiated endless light. Using the Angelic Holy Sword to perform Angelic Judgment was definitely Qian Daoliu's strongest attack method.
"not good."
The priest felt a chilling threat emanating from this endless light.
"This is the power of judgment? But isn't the law of judgment controlled by the God of Asura?"
The priest sensed a power of judgment similar to that of the Asura God from this light, and almost thought that the Spirit Hall was the inheritance of the Asura God.
However, although the Asura God's divine weapon is also a sword, it is definitely not a sword with the attribute of light.
In a flash, the fire snakes gathered in the priest's hand and transformed into a flaming spear.
Although this spear was not a divine weapon, its power was still considerable. With the spear in hand, the priest forcibly broke free from the shackles of the power of judgment, flames following him, and rushed towards Qian Daoliu.
