Chapter 456: Chapter 0456: Promotion (Extra 2800, asking for monthly pass) freёwebnoѵel.com
“What… such a horrifying existence!”
Cowering beneath dragon wings, Messiah looked up at the sky, her eyes bleeding.
She was grateful.
Thankfully, her people were engaged in rituals, their heads bowed, no one dared to look up. Otherwise, the mere sight of the bone hand would probably lead to mass death!
“This isn’t good!”
Upon witnessing the descending bone hand, Ham let out a scream.
Su Lu needed to perform a ceremony. How could he defend against this attack?
Even if he could resist in the end, the ceremony was bound to fail!
Whoosh, whoosh!
At this moment, another ‘Su Lu’ appeared in mid-air, spreading a massive amount of pale chains from his body.
The Chains of Spirit!
Many chains reached into the void, continuously weaving together, forming a giant web of chains.
The Bone Marquis’s large hand pushed down, falling onto the chain spider web, which instantly gave rise to pale flames, burning the mysterious symbols on the bones.
The hand seemed to carry an indescribable strength, continuously pressing down, causing a heart-pounding concavity in the giant web.
Just a little more and it would have landed in the capital!
But that little bit seemed like a limit, a stronghold that couldn’t be conquered, the spirit hand couldn’t cross this line!
“That was close,” mumbled the shadow clone, looking at the giant hand and the raging shouts coming from it.
The Material Realm is the harshest layer of the world rules, protecting the weak creatures.
If they were in the Dream Spirit World, where rules can be twisted, the opponent could display the strength of its Mythical Body indiscriminately. There’s no way he could intercept this move.
But now?
This sixth-level being had just broken its seal and was weakened by the rules of the Material Realm. He, a dual fifth-level being of legend, barely fended off just one blow. This demonstrated just how powerful a sixth-level being could be!
Within the capital.
Many of the sacrificial priests below noticed the commotion in the air and wished to look up.
But the overwhelming authority was too overpowering, they couldn’t even lift their heads. Their surroundings also seemed to have turned unusually quiet.
…
“Damn, even if we could fend off one blow, what about a second one?”
“Even if we can withstand the attacks, this is clearly beyond terrifying!”
Messiah and Ham watched this scene, their faces filled with anxiety and worry.
In the Church of the Mother Earth Goddess, however.
An elderly ascetic, looking up at this event, had a look of joy on his face: “That is… The Bone Marquis, who was rumored to have been eradicated from history alongside the Church of Death?”
As a member of a superpower, he was keenly aware of the internal workings.
“This is a sixth-level Occupational Person… Was he attracted by the ‘Spirit Sacrifice’ ritual? He is still alive… The Dragon Slayer is in trouble this time. He might even fall because of it…”
In his opinion, even if the ritual was completed, all that was accomplished was passing one challenge from legend to myth. There was still a long road ahead.
And the Bone Marquis wouldn’t give the Dragon Slayer any more time.
Despite the weakening of the Material Realm, the power difference between the sixth and fifth level didn’t need to be explained.
As soon as the Mythical Body was fully present in the Material Realm, he could certainly kill the Dragon Slayer!
“And… awakening ahead of time, breaking the seal, recklessly killing a legendary Occupational Person in the Material Realm, the Bone Marquis must pay a price. His condition must be terrible…”
“If we risk awakening the backbone of the church, we might have a chance to suppress and seal the Bone Marquis…”
The elderly ascetic calculated quickly: “No… We can’t risk the church’s strength for this plan. Those pinnacle Occupational Persons are what keeps the church in this world…”
“No matter what though, the Dragon Slayer is in danger!”
…
“I declare, the ritual is concluded!”
Above the altar, Su Lu carried out the ritual meticulously, regardless of whether the onlookers were anxious or elated, and finally announced.
“Everyone, do not look at the sky, do not listen to the sounds.”
Then, he warned in a deep voice, his figure soared into the sky, joining his shadow clone that had been there in advance to confront the enormous skeletal hand descending from the skies.
At this point, with the expansion of the black hole, two skeletal arms had already extended outwards!
“Tsk tsk… quite formidable huh?”
“However, judging from the aura, it seems related to the Church of Death, probably a death-related occupational person…”
It is very difficult for fifth or sixth-level occupational persons to take office and even their professions are challenging to plan and design.
The foundations of this world are limited. The most likely source is from beyond this world, such as blessings from deities.
In Su Lu’s perception, the entity hidden beneath the burial grounds evidently has some connections with Lady Moon’s church.
“Tsk tsk… if its true body were to arrive, it should be able to squash us both.”
As Su Lu glanced at his shadow clone, they exchanged smiles, without a trace of anxiety on their faces.
…
Somewhere, a distance away from the capital, lay a cavern.
“The Sacrificial Ceremony of the Spirit is completed?”
Su Lu opened his eyes, “Thanks to the help of the Arrogant School, we were able to stall the Church of the Mother Earth Goddess. Other fifth-level creatures didn’t make a move, only that sixth-level Bone Occupation Person came to wreak havoc… It wouldn’t matter if my two shadow clones died, but the capital might suffer a calamity.”
That’s right!
Not only the guardian, but even the ‘Su Lu’ who presided over the ritual was a shadow clone!
This was his plan!
Never to expose his real body to danger, if there were any dangers, the shadow clones would bear them instead. There would be nothing to fear even if they were lost!
“Fortunately, even though it was strenuous, it was eventually completed. Now, it’s time for my promotion.”
With his status bar, there were no issues with timing the promotion.
He was promoting himself now primarily for the capital.
Otherwise, even though he was safe, having dragged Messiah, Ham, and tens of thousands of people in the capital who helped him into this predicament, he would feel guilty.
Anyway, as long as the conditions were met, there had never been a failed promotion!
Su Lu opened up his status bar, his gaze was focused.
…

…
Various data flashed quickly.
But this time, a scene entirely different from before occurred during the job switch.
A look of astonishment appeared on Su Lu’s face.
He saw his perfect body, where the spiritual body and the physical body have merged as one, beginning to disintegrate!
It began from the fingers, and then spread to the arm, the shoulder, and the chest!
After the disappearance of the limbs, the remainder of the torso and the head also turned into flying ashes and dispersed.
In the blink of an eye.
Su Lu’s body had disappeared completely, as if he had never existed in this world at all!
