126: Chapter 126 Mortal Believer's Counterattack Against Spiritual Believer

Principal Li Qingyun watched from the side, his brows furrowed tightly. A city with such defenses had not even been destroyed by the star destroyer.

It seemed Young Friend Lin had truly encountered a difficult problem this time, and hearing the incessant chatter of the Family Elder beside him, he couldn't help but sneer.

"That is truly thanks to all of you, but with you all being so 'prepared with such intention,' how is the examinee supposed to complete the assessment?

Even the star destroyer couldn't blast through these walls; do you expect Believers who haven't even reached Spirit Rank to be able to breach them?"

An Elder of the Hu Family heard this and wore a dismissive smile on his face.

"Hehehe, Principal, you should have more confidence in the younger generation. After all, once they are truly on the battlefield, the enemy will not lower their defenses just because Young Friend Lin is only a Divine Being.

How to break through the defenses of a sturdy city and annihilate as many Believers inside as possible—this is inherently part of the assessment."

"Exactly. Given Young Friend Lin's financial resources and wit, we believe that this small difficulty certainly won't stop him for long. After all, he is someone who came from the Lin Family.

It shouldn't be the case that he can't even break through a Demigod-level city, right?"

[Are they so shameless as to discard their dignity just to strike at Young Friend Lin? This is truly despicable...]

Principal Li Qingyun shook his head inwardly. With this level of defense, they actually have the nerve to call it a Demigod-level city? Isn't this just the level of an ordinary First-order Deity's main city?

This isn't an assessment at all; it's pure farce!

At this moment, on the walls within the Divine Kingdom, the Spirit Rank Believers of the three races were fully equipped with Medium Grade Magical Artifact weapons and armor.

Looking at the five starships floating outside, they circulated their Spiritual Power, allowing their voices to carry further.

"Young Human! If you still wish to pass the assessment, disperse those external forces. Let us fight head-on with our own strength; if you can defeat us,

then you pass. If you are unwilling, then we shall wait until you are tired of blasting away. Then we can talk."

Squinting at the group of alien races on the city wall, lines of data appeared before Lin Xiao's eyes. The technological creation [Eye of Insight] could roughly probe the enemy's strength.

It could probe up to the strength of Golden Core Realm Believers, and the lower the strength, the more accurate the results.

[Realm: Qi Refining Realm]

[Equipment: Qinglan Sword (Medium Grade Magical Artifact), Duanyue Blade (Medium Grade Magical Artifact), Mountain-Crushing Hammer (Medium Grade Magical Artifact), Xuanyan Mountain-Suppressing Heavy Armor (Medium Grade Magical Artifact)]

[Including equipment bonuses, estimated strength is Peak Qi Refining Realm]

"These families are certainly willing to spend a fortune, providing full sets of Medium Grade Magical Artifact weapons and armor. I imagine their supply of Medicinal Pills won't be small either.

Did I dig up their ancestral graves? Why spend such a fortune to deal with me?"

At this moment, Lin Xiao was truly curious: what was the point of them doing this? He hadn't blocked these families' registrations, and they took resources from his temple every day. Yet they turned around and dealt with him like this?

He really couldn't fathom why he was being targeted like this. Lin Xiao waved his hand and recalled the starships. At the same time, ten thousand Second-order Believers appeared before him.

"Be careful, everyone. The opponents are Spirit Rank Believers. Do not be stingy with Medicinal Pills if you are injured. If the battle is unfavorable, you are permitted to use Low Grade Magical Artifact Puppets.

These items were issued to you to be used; if one breaks, just switch to another. Remember one thing above all: put your own safety first!

Once you are in deep danger, you are permitted to use Medium Grade Magical Artifact Puppets! As for High Grade Magical Artifact Puppets, do not use them without my orders.

If we scare those people outside, the rest of the assessment won't be any fun."

Having listened carefully to the Divine Lord's instructions, the ten thousand Second-order Believers respectfully accepted the order. The Believers did not feel afraid because the opponents were Spirit Rank; on the contrary, their faces were filled with excitement.

"We have finally encountered a decent battle. Divine Lord has cultivated us with such great effort. We finally have a chance to repay him. This time, we must slaughter the enemy fiercely!"

"Hehehe, this is not a Secret Realm trial. It shouldn't happen that the gods personally intervene to fish people out at the end. This time, we must have a satisfying slaughter!"

While Lin Xiao was giving his orders, the ten thousand Believers had already quickly formed into a large Formation according to their past training. Their Prodigy-level strength allowed the Aura they unleashed to be not a bit weaker than the opponents.

The Believers of the three races on the city wall felt the Aura coming from Lin Xiao's side. They retracted the smiles on their faces, and each of them became serious and solemn.

"They are only Second-order, yet they possess the Aura of a royal race. No wonder those humans asked us to intervene. It seems a fierce battle is unavoidable..."

"Today's battle concerns the safety of the Divine Lord. Even if we die in battle, we must complete the mission! Clansmen, follow me to kill the enemy!"

Since the opponent had already put away the starships, the Believers of the three races did not delay any longer. Led by their leaders, the Believers leapt down from the city wall as if they were dumplings being dropped into a pot.

Although they could not yet fly on swords, they were still capable of brief levitation techniques. Seeing the alien races leap down from the opposite side, a glimmer of sharpness flashed in the eyes of the ten captains of the thousand-man units.

They roared a single word: "Kill!"

As soon as the word was uttered, the previously stationary phalanx became like a giant wave, swiftly and fiercely crashing toward the Believers of the three races who had descended.

"Damn it! How can they be so fast!"

"Not good! Form the Formation quickly!"

As Believers of Prodigy-level strength meticulously cultivated by Lin Xiao, even if they were only Second-order, their movement speed, Internal Energy circulation, and physical fitness were already not inferior to Spirit Rank.

Underestimating them, the three races suffered a huge loss immediately. In their haste, let alone fighting in a Formation, even blocking was stretched to the limit.

"Nine Styles of the Heavenly Sword, Sword-Breaking Style!"

Lin Xiao's Believers went all out upon contact. After rapidly circulating their Internal Energy, they injected it into their Medium Grade Magical Artifacts; the enemies, caught in haste, had insufficient Spiritual Qi circulation.

With a light clinking sound, the Magical Artifact longsword in the alien's hand was knocked out of their grip. Having succeeded in one strike, the Second-order Believer did not give the opponent the slightest chance to breathe.

The longsword in their hand was like waves, one after another, possessing a continuous momentum, and each subsequent wave was always heavier than the previous one.

[Nine-Wave Sword Technique] is divided into nine waves, each higher than the last. By the ninth wave, the Believer can unleash ten times the power of their own sword technique.

However, this is only an ideal state. Using the sword technique with Prodigy-level strength, they can at most unleash an attack three times their own power by the ninth wave.

But this was enough. They had only reached the fifth wave, and the Qi Refining Realm Believers of the alien races had already completely lost the ability to resist, forced to rely on their Medium Grade Magical Artifacts and bodies to endure the attack.

"Nine Styles of the Heavenly Sword, Armor-Breaking Style!"

Under Lin Xiao's extravagantly inhumane cultivation, the Believers only needed to focus on training every day. As for other chores, they were all completed by Mechanical Constructs.

High-level intelligent Mechanical Constructs had an incomparable Innate advantage in completing repetitive labor such as feeding, planting, and housework.

It was precisely because they did not need to worry about anything other than increasing their strength that the Believers within Lin Xiao's Divine Kingdom not only improved their strength quickly,

but even their sword techniques, Formations, and the like were quickly practiced to the Realm of Major Achievement. At this moment, the Fusion of two different sword techniques was used without the slightest awkwardness or stiffness.
