Chapter 700 Mysterious Coin

Temple of Death.

An old coin was flying back and forth on five fingers.

The dexterous fingers changed their movements at will, and finally flicked lightly.

Ding--

The coin flew to the center of the large round table, and did not fall directly, but kept spinning.

In the fortified church hall, everyone held their breath and said nothing.

The coins were still spinning rapidly, attracting everyone's attention.

After a long time, a majestic voice sounded.

"This was originally the most important thing in the holy religion, but when the road to becoming a god appeared, it was temporarily forgotten by everyone."

The sound disappears.

Still no one else spoke.

A man in black came out and knelt down on one knee beside the round table.

"Sorry, Your Excellency, this is my negligence, I am here to apologize to everyone." He said.

Greyhand, one of the eight bishops of the Deathly Hallows Church.

He admitted his mistake with this gesture.

The atmosphere in the hall eased up a little.

With a little concern, the pope said: "Grey hands, I heard that your apprentice died, please mourn."

"He didn't do his duty well, and he deserves to die," Gray Hand said.

"Next, what are you going to do?" the pope asked.

"I will go there in person to find out the person who destroyed the great plan of the Holy Cult, and then take back the card." Gray Hand said.

"Go in person? Has your tree of divinity been lit?" the pope asked.

"It's still a bit worse." Gray Hand sighed.

The people around couldn't help but whispered.

If Gray Hand is going to do this in person now, then he will have to give up halfway to ignite the tree of divinity.

This is equivalent to giving up the road to becoming a god, and it can be described as the most serious self-punishment.

But who can blame this?

In fact, if it wasn't for igniting the tree of divinity, Gray Hand wouldn't have left Quicksand World at all.

If it weren't for the appearance of the road to becoming a god, he would have stayed in that world and continued to guard that crucial card.

However, it has been found out that all the means to bind that special card have been destroyed.

Thousands of years of painstaking efforts and efforts of the church have been wasted.

Gray Hand made such a big mistake, and this is the punishment he should bear.

The Pope listened silently and sighed.

He is very satisfied with the current situation.

The ability of Huishou is still worthy of recognition.

Now it is just a matter of time to save the gray hand, so as to gain the gratitude and loyalty of the powerful bishop.

Thinking of this, the pope said softly: "Please ask the oracle."

As soon as these three words came out, everyone present quickly got up and knelt down on one knee.

The Pope carefully took out a black metal box.

He opens the box.

hum!

A heavy night curtain was released from the box and quickly enveloped the entire hall.

In the night, the oracle that the god of death has kept for countless years resounded directly in everyone's hearts.

The dark night only stayed for a breath, and then disappeared at an extremely fast speed.

Everyone showed a clear look.

"Is everything clear?" the pope asked.

"It's clear," a bishop responded, "When the path to becoming a god appears, believers of all ranks must take the path to becoming a god as their primary goal, and they must not violate or deviate from it."

The pope looked at Huishou, smiled and said, "The road to becoming a god is the road appointed by the gods, and we must not violate it, so you should not leave for now, and wait until the tree of divinity is ignited."

Gray Hand immediately showed deep gratitude.

——If there is a choice, who is willing to bury their chance to become a god?

Suddenly a voice sounded: "My lord, I object."

Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was a bishop who had never dealt with gray hands.

He said angrily: "After so many years of preparation, the church finally seized a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to capture her at the weakest moment of that card, but ruined all of this in vain, shouldn't it be punished? ?”

The pope said kindly: "The reason why Gray Hand left the world of quicksand is, in the final analysis, to respond to the call of the gods and come back to light the tree of divinity."

"And the matter about that card is the plan of our church."

"Comparing the two, it is correct that the ashen hands follow God's will and return."

"Perhaps God also thinks that we shouldn't plot that secret, so he let our pious gray-handed bishop come back immediately."

The bishop moved his lips, and said unwillingly: "But after all, the gray hand—"

The pope interrupted him and said directly: "The path to becoming a god is God's will. Do you think your opinion is more important than God's will?"

In the end, the Pope's tone had become somewhat cold.

The bishop was startled, and hurriedly said, "Don't dare, don't dare."

The pope looked around.

No objection was raised.

This is an oracle, and it was arranged by the god of death countless years ago.

The matter is related to the will of the gods, who dares to violate it?

In the midst of acquiescence, Gray Hand slowly stood up and said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Excellency Pope."

"You're welcome, God's will is supreme and cannot be underestimated," said the pope.

At this time, the atmosphere in the entire hall gradually relaxed.

Yes, the gods arranged all this countless years ago.

How could the gods fail to notice the direction of the church?

Maybe God really doesn't want the church to explore the secret of that card.

People thought silently in their hearts.

They couldn't help turning their eyes to the round table again.

On the round table, the spinning coins gradually slowed down.

If you have good eyesight, you can see the patterns depicted on the front and back of the coin from the rotation process of the coin.

A sleeping maiden is carved on the obverse of the coin.

The girl is surrounded by all kinds of complicated and mysterious secret patterns.

These esoteric lines guard the maiden at the center of the coin.

On the other side of the coin, there is a constantly surging chaos, and you will feel palpitations after watching it for a long time.

Yes, this is the third-ranked coin among the one thousand and one coins: Sleeping Maiden.

Coin No. 999, Sleeping Girl.

From the perspective of the mysterious side, this is the most mysterious coin among the No. 1001 coins.

If this coin appears in the world, is obtained, or even displayed, no one may be able to recognize the real name of the coin.

Because the top three coins were issued only one.

——It is also because there is not even the most basic coin information on this coin.

This is one of the three most mysterious coins in the entire hegemony area.

This coin does not represent wealth.

It represents secrets far beyond what money can measure.

If Gu Qingshan were here, he would be surprised to find that the girl depicted on this coin is almost exactly the same as the girl he saved.

Unfortunately, he probably won't know about this for a long time.

In the hall, the pope's voice sounded again.

"Then, this matter is so decided, stay with gray hands, continue to light the tree of divinity according to the oracle, and any of you are the same, before lighting the tree of divinity, you are not allowed to leave."

"Immediately issue a high reward to arrest that person in the entire hegemony area."

"All believers should take becoming a god as the highest goal, and other things can be put aside!"

"Next thing."

"Anna is coming back."

"The road to becoming a god was opened by her and Su Ke'er from the Temple of Destiny. This is the favor of the gods and the supreme glory."

"Please discuss how to reward her."

...

Quicksand world.

big desert.

Layers of layers of hidden dunes surrounded by magic circles.

Gu Qingshan squeezed a hand formula.

The sand and stone retreated to both sides immediately, and the faint blue ice crystal appeared in front of him and the girl in white.

Among the ice crystals, a beautiful woman covered in blood, with her eyes closed, was dying and in a deep coma.

Overlord level powerhouse, Yun Ji.

"Is this the person you want me to save?" the girl in white asked.

"Exactly, please take a look." Gu Qingshan said.

The girl in white walked forward and knelt in front of the blue ice crystal.

"Shenli Frost Crystal, what a long-lost memory."

The girl in white caressed the surface of the ice crystal and said with emotion.

Gu Qingshan frowned, and quickly asked: "You know this thing? Then do you know the person who cast this spell?"

The girl shook her head and said, "This magical method is very old, and there are quite a few gods who can use it. I'm not sure who it is."

"I'm going to start trying to treat her next, so don't make a sound for now."

"Okay." Gu Qingshan said.

I saw the girl continuously drawing out cards from the void.

She stuck the cards one by one on the surface of the ice crystal, and quickly put them away.

Among the ice crystals, Yunji's complexion gradually improved a lot, and the wounds on her body showed signs of healing.

Seeing Gu Qingshan, he was overjoyed.

But the girl collected all the cards, stood up and said, "No, I can't save her."

Gu Qingshan was stunned.

He encouraged: "You seem to have cured some of her injuries just now, please don't be discouraged and try again."

The girl shook her head and said, "With me alone, there is no way."

She took out a book and drew a card from it.

The girl stared at Gu Qingshan and sighed: "For the sake of you saving me, I will liberate my wisdom."

The cards scattered into a ball of light, gradually sinking into the girl's body.

The girl stood still.

But her whole demeanor has changed.

Her expression became serious, and her every move was full of dignity and holiness.

The girl didn't say much, and pressed her hand on the ice crystal again.

"Show your mystery, the skill of the gods," she murmured.

Following the girl's movements, the ice crystal became unstable, trembling violently several times.

Gu Qingshan looked terrified.

If the ice crystal shattered, Yunji would definitely die.

However, the girl was able to shake the ice crystals made of magic just by touching it, which meant that she had found a way.

For a moment, Gu Qingshan didn't know if it was right for him to bring the girl.

While feeling apprehensive, the girl withdrew her hand and stood up again.

She wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said to Gu Qingshan: "The situation is very complicated, you must listen carefully to what I say next."

Gu Qingshan nodded.

The girl said: "On the surface, it looks like this is a single ice crystal, but in fact there are more than one such ice crystal. According to the divine power sense on the ice crystal, I noticed that there are a total of 381 ice crystals."

Gu Qingshan was silent for a while.

This is probably the number of people saved by Ms. Heihai. The others were probably killed in battle and their souls were eaten by that monster.

The girl said: "These three hundred and eighty-one divine power ice crystals form a structure that goes back and forth, and this structure forms a special energy absorption tool—similar to the magic circle of your practitioners."

"This magic circle-like tool can absorb all kinds of power from the void in the hegemony area to supplement its own consumption."

"In this way, the ice crystals can last for a long time, and the people inside will always maintain their last vitality and will not die."

"But here is the problem, unless you have the ability to heal these 381 seriously injured people at once, all the ice crystals will be released at the same time, and these people will wake up and come back to life."

Gu Qingshan asked inexplicably: "Why is this happening, why can't we save them one by one?"

The girl stared at the ice crystal with a look of admiration on her face.

"Actually, this magical method can be set to save one by one, but the other party deliberately set it so that they must be saved at the same time. This has her deep meaning."

"What's the meaning?" Gu Qingshan asked.

"Unless your power reaches unimaginable strength and can save everyone at once, otherwise even if you save them, it won't help. It's better to let these people hide temporarily so that they won't be noticed——I think this That's what the other party wants to say." The girl said.

"How can you infer so much? It's not logical." Gu Qingshan said.

"Because of the injury—her injury came from a strange thing, the gods fear that kind of thing, all living beings are invincible to that kind of thing, and all things are destroyed by that kind of thing." The girl said quietly.
