I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means-Chapter 837 - 516 [High Order Suffering Talisman]

Chapter 837 -516 [High Order Suffering Talisman]

—————–

…

[Specialty [Shadow Stab]: You have become increasingly adept at using Shadow Power, ignoring 15% of the enemy’s defense when fighting with Shadow Power (effect is related to Shadow Power affinity)]

—————–

Lis looked at the system panel’s prompt, feeling quite satisfied.

The newly obtained Extraordinary Domain [Shadow], though still at the first level, was enough to greatly enhance many of Lis’s assassin skills.

It also made Lis more proficient in using Shadow Power. Although it wasn’t enough to significantly boost his overall strength, it did compensate for Lis’s weaknesses.

Previously, when fighting with Brett, the opponent often gained an upper hand due to his advantage in controlling Shadow Power. However, it didn’t affect the final outcome.

Lis’s strength had reached such a level that even someone like Brett, who stood at the threshold of Legend, might not trigger a timed challenge task for him.

Receiving such a reward was quite decent.

Of course, the most important thing was that it made Lis realize the power of the [Wisdom] Domain, which was far more significant than a couple of timed challenge task rewards.

While he was still slowly digesting the experience and insights from the recent battle, Lis walked toward Zorff and others who stood not far from him.

Their attire and aura clearly indicated they were from the Suffering God Church, and they must have rushed over after noticing the battle here.

Zorff looked at Lis walking towards him, momentarily unsure of what to say.

Perhaps Lis’s current appearance was too contrasting: dressed leisurely like a noble youth, yet holding a follower of the Evil God emitting malevolent aura.

The follower of the Evil God looked quite miserable, seemingly unable to pose any threat to Lis.

Had the Suffering God Church been searching for this follower of the Evil God throughout Cui Feng City for so long, only to be caught like this?

From the previous conversation with Ebel, it appeared that the Elf Sage had only accepted the Mercenary Guild’s commission regarding this matter yesterday and had just started investigating Light Street last night.

Had he found this follower of the Evil God and even managed to control him so quickly? frёewebηovel.cѳm

If so, wouldn’t it make the divine officers of the Suffering God Church seem incompetent?

Though Zorff wanted to say this, as a bishop of the Suffering God Church, he had to maintain the church’s reputation.

“Elf Sage, welcome to Cui Feng City.”

“I am Zorff, the bishop of the Suffering God Church.”

Zorff stood before Lis, slightly bowed, and spoke.

Back in Jade City, Lis had reached an agreement with the Church of the Gods.

Though only representatives from the Dawn Church, Earth Church, and War God Church were present, they were there as representatives of the Church of the Gods, and the agreement’s contents needed to be informed to all True God Churches.

Thus, the Church of Suffering was aware of Lis’s existence, and that he represented the Elf Kingdom in reaching the agreement with the Church of the Gods.

The Suffering God Church had even attached a magic portrait of Lis in their notice.

Even though creating a magic portrait was much more cumbersome than the camera from Lis’s previous life, it captured the unique temperament of the depicted individual.

That’s why Ebel found Lis somewhat familiar when he first saw him.

Upon seeing Lis, Zorff immediately confirmed that this human who had become the first Elf Sage in history was indeed Lis Kain.

“Very pleased to meet you, Bishop Zorff.”

Lis slightly nodded and addressed Zorff.

Given his current status, even the archbishops of the Church of the Gods had to treat him equally. It was even more so for the branch of the Suffering God Church in Cui Feng City.

“Who is this in your hand?”

Already guessing the identity of the unconscious elder in Lis’s hand, Zorff still asked Lis.

“This is a follower of the God of Thieves. He was conducting a life sacrifice ceremony in Cui Feng City, likely to receive the Evil God’s Power and seek to break through to the Legendary Rank.”

“What?”

Zorff was slightly shocked, feeling a chill in his heart.

If this person succeeded, the situation would be uncontrollable.

Currently, Gordon Kingdom only had one Legendary Strongman, who was stationed in the Royal Capital.

If a Legendary Rank follower of the Evil God appeared in Cui Feng City, aside from the Suffering God Church and the Lord’s castle, ordinary citizens of Cui Feng City would face a catastrophic disaster.

No wonder…

No wonder this follower of the Evil God was so cautious, with extremely strong hiding abilities.

He was likely performing the life sacrifice ceremony to receive power while delaying time to assimilate the acquired power.

The follower of the Evil God had been hiding here all along, which meant their previous search direction was entirely wrong. It would have taken a long time to find him here.

Lis’s way of finding him remained unknown.

Zorff suddenly realized something, his heart slightly startled.

If it was true what Lis said, that this follower of the Evil God did all this to break through to Legendary, didn’t it mean that this person was a Golden Peak Strongman just one step away from achieving Legend?

Zorff knew well that although he was the bishop of the Suffering God Church, facing such a strongman required joining forces with Ebel.
