Chapter 334: 171 You dare to chase after me with this kind of trash?_2

"What power is this?"

Some ten meters away, with shock still etched on his face, he lifted his head only to see pairs of eyes emitting intense white light. In the last row of the prayer area, two or three devotees turned their bodies stiffly, staring straight at Bai Xiao.

"Heresy..."

"Heresy."

"Heresy!"

It seemed as if not accepting that beam of white light was the mark of becoming an enemy to Bai Xiao.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Three figures stood up instantaneously, their bare feet eerily hovering about ten centimeters above the ground, their white robes fluttering slightly.

They extended their nearly translucent, pale hands and swept them across the air.

Hum! Hum! Hum!

Exceedingly thin white swords appeared in their hands.

The swords had no hilt, about one meter in length, floating above their palms, and spinning.

They did not seem to be held, but rather...

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

In an instant, three Light Sabers flew out, bombarding an area with the speed of lightning and demonstrating explosive destructive power.

"Sacred starlight, please judge all heretics!"

The cold, pitiless words of judgment rang out.

In the midst of the explosion, a figure shot out at an angle, scrambling towards another side of the rectangular hall. In Bai Xiao’s vision, the beautifully elegant stone pillars flashed by like fleeting shadows, continuously moving away behind him.

"These people, they’ve actually reached the level of a Martial Artist!?"

"Just the three devotees sitting at the very edge of the prayer area possess the destructive power of a Martial Artist? Then what about those sitting in the rows ahead? Aren’t they at least at the same level? Hundreds of people are in sight, so there are at least hundreds of Martial Artists? It seems that this time, I’ve indeed entered the core area of the combat city..."

Bai Xiao thought to himself as he ran wildly.

Zoom!

With a slight tilt of his head, a glowing white sword whooshed by, stirring up a gust of wind. The moment it touched the ground in front of him, it triggered an explosion.

However, whatever material the floor of the Holy Temple was made of, it only left a fist-sized hole, far more sturdy than imagined. Little bits of stone flew about, pitter-pattering against Bai Xiao’s chest, then falling back down.

Zoom!

Two more glowing white swords shot towards him, reckless and unbridled.

Bai Xiao dodged the one on the left, but the one on the right cut off his escape. With a loud explosion, his strong shoulder shook violently, his body stumbling forward as he ran, and he let out a muffled grunt.

"Damn it, if it weren’t for being too close to this prayer area and fearing attracting more devotees..." Bai Xiao murmured to himself, still with no intention of fighting back, but forcibly enduring a minor burn on his back.

In the hall’s passageway, a figure fled forward, with three figures furiously pursuing him from behind. The glowing white swords shot out occasionally, creating explosions.

Zoom! Zoom!

Bai Xiao’s sprinting figure stumbled twice more, nearly falling to the ground. Black smoke rose from his back, his upper body’s clothing was torn into strips, and the red-hot burn marks were faintly visible.

"Hiss..."

With two puffs of hot air from his nostrils, Bai Xiao turned his head to glance piercingly at the three pursuers, then continued his frantic dash forward. His whole being swept around the corner of the hall like a hurricane, arriving at the location of a side chamber on the first floor of the Beidou Holy Temple.

"You’d better not follow me..."

"Otherwise, heh heh."

A hint of a cold smirk crossed Bai Xiao’s dark and gloomy face.

In the rectangular hall, three white-robed devotees flew forward in a hovering stance, their toes barely ten centimeters off the ground—not truly flying. Their recent barrage had been shockingly powerful; even Bai Xiao had been driven to scurry about helplessly without a chance to fight back.

"Judge! Heretic!"

After Bai Xiao rounded the corner, the three devotees paused in their movements but still closely followed him. Perhaps the previous chase had given them the wrong impression.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

Three white figures hastily followed the corner, brimming with aggression.

However, the leader who rushed out first was suddenly grabbed by a red and black sinister hand that reached out from around the corner and was violently dragged into the shadows.

Splurch!!!

Without any struggle or exchange, the raging Bai Xiao seized the white-robed devotee with absolutely barbaric strength and tore the translucent, pure body in half!

The iron-red enormous figure stood in the shadows, exhaling white breath from its nostrils, its terrifying arms slowly spreading as they emitted a steaming heat, with the two halves of the body dropping to the ground.

Fine starlight flowed out from the cut surface, like grains of sand among the stars.

"Did you really think I’m afraid of you?!"

Bai Xiao’s face twisted fiercely, his pupils burning with red-hot intensity.

These white-robed believers were not as strong as imagined; while possessing astonishing destructive power, their bodies were exceptionally fragile, reminiscent of glass cannons.

Bai Xiao had originally thought that hiding in the shadows and grabbing the opponent would take several struggles to resist. To his surprise, with a tremendous jolt of strength, tearing marks appeared on the body of the believer, and with just a gentle effort, half of the body fell off.

"Is this what you’ve got, and you dare to chase after me?"

"Courting death!"

Bai Xiao stamped on the ground, which trembled thunderously, and in an instant, he swept forward like a heavy tank, viciously attacking the remaining two.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Streaks of white Light Sabers shot over, each carrying searing explosive power.

Bang bang bang!

Bursts of flame exploded on Bai Xiao’s Ba Snake Body, brazenly withstanding the impact energy, and he forcefully pushed forward, appearing right in front of the enemy.

Huff!

His vigorous fingers spread like Iron Claws, and with explosive power, he viciously tore through the air, instantly releasing five parallel white streams of Qi.

Ding!

A Cross Light Saber wielded by a white-robed believer was crushed to dust by his palm, shattered into thousands of fragments. Then, the believer’s right arm twisted and tore apart like a twisted doughnut. The semi-transparent skin on the surface blossomed with almost a hundred cracks.

Splat!

The reddish Iron Claw penetrated the believer’s chest, piercing through the back.

A puff of mist exploded like stardust.

Bai Xiao shook his hand.

The opponent, like a broken sack, was thrown out heavily.

Clang!

A Cross Light Saber, carrying immense strength, viciously slashed at Bai Xiao’s neck from the left, causing a metallic clashing noise.

Flames erupted and white light instantly submerged Bai Xiao’s left face.

However, the next second.

"Huff!"

A massive exhalation burst forth, and the flames and light were immediately blown away.

It revealed a shattered Light Saber and an unscathed thick neck. Bai Xiao, expressionless, stopped exhaling. He allowed the opponent’s Light Saber to rest upon his neck, twisted his neck, and his bones cracked crisply.

"Tit for tat, heh heh."

He looked at the last remaining white-robed believer, a smile creeping onto his face. With a whoosh, a gust of wind howled as he swung his arm in an arc.

The extremely fierce hand blade silhouette decisively chopped at the opponent’s neck.

Bang!!!

Surging Power erupted, and the believer’s head exploded on the spot.

A headless corpse fell to the ground.

Bai Xiao stepped forward, casually stepping over the body, and walked towards the distance.

...

On the first floor of the Beidou Holy Temple, at the side hall.

The place was empty, even more spacious than the rectangular hall.

The most eye-catching feature was a row of statues flanking both sides. Each white stone statue wore Armor and wielded swords, their helmets suggesting a solemn military air. In the middle of the statues, a grey and worn carpet ran from the small door of the side hall to the very end.

At the end, there stood a conspicuously visible stone altar.

Heptagonal, the surface etched with religious carvings. On each corner of the altar shone a star, faintly glowing, in harmony with one another.

In the center of the altar, a white Cross Sword lay quietly embedded in a stone column.

Bai Xiao approached and looked down.

On the surface of the column, there was a line of text.

"Military rank test platform, can activate military rank, determine the level of military rank!"

"Once the military rank level is confirmed, one can recruit soldiers within the Confrontation City!"
