Chapter 13791 Can't Retreat
Chapter 13791 Can't Retreat
Retreat!
This thought became stronger and stronger in the mind of the white-robed chief priest. He knew very well that since the plan had failed, there was no point in persisting.
Staying on this battlefield would only cause more Holy Temple masters to die, making the situation worse. It would be better to stop the loss in time, preserve strength, and wait for the next opportunity.
While he was full of worry and indecision, Ling Xiao below was like a mad beast, killing people on the battlefield.
His figure shuttled among the warriors of the Holy Temple like a ghost, the weapon in his hand flashed with cold light, and every swing could take away a fresh life. Blood splattered around him, screams echoed in his ears, but he seemed to be unaware of it, with only endless killing and anger in his eyes.
In just a few moments, Ling Xiao's cultivation had already reached the eighth level of Tianhe Realm, and was still improving. The spiritual energy around his body surged, forming a huge vortex that continuously absorbed the surrounding energy.
The main reason was that the strong men in the Holy Hall were very powerful. They contained rich star power and vitality in their bodies, which could provide him with enough energy to make him stronger. Every time he devoured a strong man in the Holy Hall, his strength would increase by one point, and his aura would become more and more terrifying.
"White robe, retreat, we have failed!" At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the mind of the white robe chief priest. The voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of helplessness and unwillingness. It was the voice of the red robe chief priest.
It turned out that the red-robed chief priest had been secretly following the situation of the battle. He saw that the masters of the Holy Hall were being defeated and suffered heavy losses under Ling Xiao's attack, and he knew that this battle had no chance of winning.
He couldn't bear to see more disciples of the Holy Temple sacrificed in vain, so he conveyed this message to the White Robe Chief Priest through telepathy.
The white-robed chief priest was suspended in the air, with the star power fluctuating violently around him. His face was as gloomy as the sky before a storm. He gritted his teeth and said, "I want to retreat, too!" His voice was full of unwillingness and resentment, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
He took a deep breath, his eyes revealing determination and worry, and he spoke anxiously to the red-robed priest's spiritual consciousness:
"But Red Robe, have you ever thought about how difficult it is for us to deal with Ling Xiao today? Look at the battlefield below. He is like an unstoppable beast, slaughtering our disciples at will.
If we let him continue to grow, we won't have any chance. Can you imagine how powerful he will be in the future?
He is like a bomb that is constantly expanding and may blow our temple to pieces at any time. We must get rid of this Ling Xiao as soon as possible, otherwise, he will become the culprit of the destruction of the temple! "
The red-robed chief priest's voice echoed in the white-robed chief priest's mind, with a hint of calmness and reason:
"You should understand that his current strength is no less than yours and mine, and he has definitely reached the peak level of the Star Realm. Look at the methods he just displayed, the power of the Blood Tribulation True Demon and the Heaven Devouring Demon Art, each of which is incredibly powerful. Even if you and I join forces, it is impossible to kill him easily. He is like a hard stone, and it is not easy to break him."
The white-robed chief priest sneered, his laughter full of mockery and disdain:
"Red Robe, why are you so fussy now? If we don't kill him now, do you think there will be a future? Right now, he hasn't surpassed the Star Realm. Although he is powerful, we still have a chance to kill him.
Our temple has stood on this continent for many years and has experienced countless storms. Are we going to retreat because of a little Ling Xiao? If this gets out, how will our temple maintain its reputation? "
The red-robed chief priest fell silent, his mind working rapidly, weighing the pros and cons.
He knew that what the White Robe Priest said made sense. Ling Xiao was like a time bomb that could bring disaster to the Holy Hall at any time. But he also knew that Ling Xiao was too powerful now. If he wanted to kill him, he would have to pay a huge price.
At this time, the battlefield below was a scene of tragedy. The strong men of the Holy Temple fell one by one under Ling Xiao's attack, and their blood dyed the ground red. They were all elites of the Holy Temple, and each of them had grown up after years of training and tempering.
They once fought for the glory of the Holy Temple, but now they lost their lives on this battlefield. Even for a strong temple like the Holy Temple, losing so many people is a very terrible thing. This may mean that they will not be able to completely intimidate King Qin, King Yu, King Shui and Xuantian Temple in the future.
These forces have been eyeing the Holy Temple covetously. Once they learn that the Holy Temple has suffered such a huge loss, they may take the opportunity to unite and attack the Holy Temple. By then, the Holy Temple will fall into an unprecedented crisis.
The red-robed head priest felt heavy in his heart when he thought of this. He didn't know what to do, should he follow the white-robed head priest's advice and fight to the death with him, or should he choose to retreat, preserve his strength, and wait for a better opportunity.
At this moment, Ling Xiao was like a demon god descending from hell, emitting a terrifying aura. Every time he made a move, it was accompanied by screams and blood splattering from the strong men of the Holy Temple.
Apart from the two top masters of the Holy Hall, the White-robed Chief Priest and the Red-robed Chief Priest, only God One and God Two could barely hold out for a moment under his attack.
God One and God Two are both the most powerful in the Holy Hall. They have rich combat experience and superb martial arts. Even so, when facing Ling Xiao, they can only hold on with difficulty, and their bodies are already covered with scars.
The other strong men of the Holy Hall were completely vulnerable in front of Ling Xiao. Whoever tried to stop him would die. Those who tried to stop Ling Xiao were like fragile paper figures under his terrifying attack and were torn to pieces in an instant.
Blood flowed freely on the battlefield, corpses piled up like mountains, and the entire battlefield was like hell on earth.
The most terrifying thing is that every time a strong man from the Holy Hall died, Ling Xiao would become stronger. The Heaven Devouring Magic Skill he used was like a bottomless pit, madly devouring the star power and vitality of these strong men.
As he continued to devour, his aura became stronger and stronger, and more and more terrifying. If he continued like this, there was no telling how powerful Ling Xiao would become. Perhaps by then, he would really become unstoppable and become the nightmare of the entire continent.
Seeing that the red-robed chief priest was still hesitating, the white-robed chief priest became extremely anxious. His eyes revealed a trace of anxiety and anger, and he urged:
"Make a decision quickly. You should understand that if we continue to let him grow, even the Holy Lord may not be his opponent. The glory and future of our temple are in our hands. If we don't act decisively now, when he becomes stronger, it will be too late. If you are unwilling to take action, then let Shen Ling take action!"
There was a sense of urgency in his voice, as if he was racing against time.
