As the highest authority in the Pure Land and also the entire Abyss, each High Priest is responsible for a single task and also has his own private territory that no one, including Mo Su, is allowed to intrude into without permission.
The Chief Priest Big Rage was the closest person to Mo Su since he served him even before falling into the Abyss. He was extrely loyal to him, to the point that it can be described as blind loyalty. Even if Mo Su were to ask him to die, he would do it without hesitation, because he and his brother Small Rage were cultivated by Mo Su and were taught the Great Way of the Buddha, which made them Rage Gods.
He was the person responsible for running the Pure Land since Mo Su rarely involved himself with the administration.
After him is the High Priest Wandao. He is well-versed in everything ranging from the old to the new. There is nothing he does not know. He is also in charge of the rare treasures of the Pure Land, such as profound artifacts, Abyssal Crystals, formation cores, pills, and more.
He was also known for his lustful nature. It was said that he slept with over a million won since he ca to the Abyss.
Similar to Big Rage, he too used to serve Mo Su before coming to the Abyss. He, too, had strong loyalty to Mo Su. In fact, his entire clan is loyal to Mo Su and Mo E. Since ancient tis, the Brahma Monarch Clan used to serve the Heaven Punishing Divine Emperor.
High Priest Wandao was a Brahma Monarch God and also the attendant of Mo Su before the latter fell into the Abyss.
Finally, the third one is the High Priest Liu Xiao (Six Laughs). He is a High Priest who is the most carefree among all of them. He is very obsessed with making food and does not care about anything else.
All the High Priests know the fate befalling the Abyss and the reason behind it. Because of that, High Priest Liu Xiao abandoned everything and stopped caring about worldly matters, focusing entirely on cooking and making dishes.
He was also the weakest after Ling Xian.
The structure closest to Eden's Crown was the Chef Priest's palace.
At this ti, the space inside the palace suddenly rippled, and from it erged silently the elegant and enchanting figure of Yun Wuying. She stepped out from the distorted space like a woman walking out from the rippling surface of a lake.
As soone who was largely similar to the Ancestral Goddess and the closest to her in terms of power and control over the Law of Nothingness, using all elents, including space and ti, ca to her as easily as breathing.
The room she had teleported into was relatively normal. It was not a pocket world ant for cultivation. Large bookshelves lined the walls, rising dozens of ters high, and at the far end of the room stood a large desk. Behind it sat the robust figure of a man.
The man was holding a jade slip in one hand and a brush in the other, writing sothing on a sheet of white paper. Slowly, he set them down, lifted his head, and glanced at Yun Wuying. His eyes twitched briefly upon seeing her devastatingly beautiful appearance, but that twitch quickly faded.
His reaction remained very calm. He did not rage or question how she had managed to co here or even what her goal might be. Standing calmly, he walked out from behind the desk and faced her.
Big Rage was almost three ters tall, and the pressure he carried within him was indescribable. Not even a ten-kiloter-tall giant carved from a mountain could hope to asure up to even one ten-thousandth of his pressure.
His figure was sculpted like ancient bronze that had been tortured by the relentless march of ti countless tis over. He exuded a kind of extre divine pressure that heralded from the ancient past and naturally superseded all things.
"Good, you are strong. You will last longer than I expected," Yun Wuying said as she sized the man up with a cruel, bloodthirsty smile. The way she looked at him was as if she were regarding a toy and not a living being.
Since Mo Su was off the table, Yun Wuying's target was the second strongest person in the Pure Land.
"Impudent!" The Chief Priest opened his mouth, and his voice sounded like a divine hamr.
He opened his palm and fired a beam of withering, yellow profound light at her. Halfway through its flight, the beam split into countless tiny needles as thin as human hair, piercing toward her from all directions.
As the strongest person after Mo Su, he stood at the Peak of the True God Realm. He never took the Divine Regents or even the other High Priests seriously. Even if he were to face their combined power, the most they could do was cause him so trouble and injuries.
Because of that, he did not take this strange woman seriously. His first course of action was to take her down and then slowly uncover her identity and motive.
BOOMM!
The devastating power of a True God was absolutely apocalyptique. Upon contact, a huge explosion disintegrated space over ten thousand kiloters from the point of impact, sending shock waves spreading everywhere.
Imdiately, alarms rang in the minds of all the Divine Guards, Abyssal Knights, and other High Priests. The first to react were the Divine Guards serving under the Chief Priest. They rushed rapidly toward the source of the explosion.
Staring at the explosion with cold, indifferent eyes, Big Rage pointed again and fired another beam from his palm straight into the sa spot. However, the mont the beam left his hand, his expression changed. A soft chuckle ca from behind him, causing all his muscles to stiffen.
"Not bad," Yun Wuying uttered casually, then pointed a delicate finger toward him. From it, a pitch-black beam shot out. "It is my turn now."
Puff!
The beam effortlessly pierced through Big Rage's muscular body, the body of the twelfth stage of the Great Way of the Buddha, the Body of Saints, as if it were tofu. The beam penetrated from the back of his shoulder and ca out from the front, continuing its path far away before detonating in the air and creating a hemisphere that spread tens of thousands of kiloters and unleashed destruction everywhere.
Rumble!
"Ugh!" The Chief Priest turned and punched with both hands at the sa ti. Rumbling explosions shredded the space into pieces like broken glass. Without hesitation, he shot into the air, putting distance between himself and her.
The look of indifference he had worn at first had completely changed into a grave expression. His eyes remained fixed on the spot where the woman stood. At the sa ti, he sensed the auras of the other two High Priests approaching in his direction. However, he did not feel at ease at all because he could not sense the aura of his master, Mo Su, at all!
What is the goal of this woman?! Why is she so strong?!
Did sothing happen to Mo Su?
As soon as that thought ford, it was quickly dismissed. Mo Su was a Half-Step Creation God. In the entire universe, there existed no one who could rival him, much less harm him!
"Struggle more. This only adds more fun for , lackeys of that ungrateful wretch!" Yun Wuying walked gracefully through the air, flinging her long black hair over her shoulder. She smiled coldly, then repeated the sa attack. She pointed a single finger, and from it another pitch-black beam, darker than even Darkness Profound Energy, shot out.
"Hmph!" The Chief Priest snorted coldly. Earlier, he had been injured because he underestimated her. It would be foolish to expect that such a simple attack would work twice on him. He twisted his body lightly to dodge the attack, but what happened next proved that he still underestimated this woman's power and overestimated his own.
Bam!
The beam curved in the air at an astonishing speed, so fast the Chief Priest could not react at all. It pierced his chest and ca out from the other side. However, this ti the beam did not continue on its path. Instead, it curved once more, turning around and penetrating his back before coming out from his right lung.
Blood spurted from the new holes in his body. The blood was foul, corroded pitch black. The flesh around the wounds began to turn darker and disintegrate on its own as if it were rotten flesh splashed with acid.
BOOMM!! Rumble!
Suddenly, a pure golden beam shot from far away, targeting Yun Wuying. The attack ca so suddenly that it landed directly on her, striking her back. A huge do-shaped explosion engulfed her completely, disintegrating the space around her along with the ground and what remained of the buildings.
Spatial cracks spread everywhere like the end of the world. Dark lightning crackled from the pitch-black voids, and spatial holes tore open the fabric of reality.
"How are you?" High Priest Wandao rushed to the Chief Priest's side and asked with a grim look.
Right after, another figure rushed to their side. It was the figure of an old man. It was High Priest Liu Xiao. He asked, "Who is that?"
"I am fine," the Chief Priest replied as he pressed a hand over his chest, trying to activate the Great Way of the Buddha. After all, when it ca to recovery and resilience, the Great Way of the Buddha only lost to the Light Profound Energy. His eyes remained fixed on the fading golden do as he answered. "Who she is does not matter. We will find out after capturing her."
