American Exorcism Male God

Chapter 422: The Gun Hits the Bird that Sticks Its Neck Out



West's pupils were almost consumed by the blood-red light, knowing he couldn't wait any longer. The man-spider swelled up like a balloon and suddenly exploded, its flesh turning into white threads that swept across the area like a tidal wave.

The surrounding monsters couldn't dodge in time and got entangled in the strands, unable to break free.

With West's ability, it certainly wasn't just about entrapment. The corrupted monsters' bodies began to dissolve, and what was most horrifying was that their origin was forced to reveal itself.

Xu Yi, of course, would not waste such a good opportunity. He held his knife horizontally in front of his chest, burning a large amount of Sub-Divine Power within him.

He swung his blade fiercely, the knife tracing a perfect circle, and the terrifying knife energy spread out in all directions.

Wherever the knife energy passed, flesh and blood disintegrated, and the souls of the monsters, along with their origin, were shredded to pieces.

The corrupted monsters were like fodder thrown into a shredder, the weaker ones dying on the spot.

Waves of corrupt energy poured into his body, but with that, the desire for slaughter grew even more terrifying.

Fortunately, the Sub-Divine Power was sufficient to gradually eradicate this lust for killing.

Xu Yi slowly opened his eyes and clenched his fists, feeling the powerful force within him.

This was the most substantial power he had absorbed since entering the Black Void Gate and the greatest enhancement he had received.

Xu Yi looked around. Limbs and remains were everywhere. The surviving monsters all looked at him, fear actually emerging in their eyes.

Xu Yi's joy didn't last long. The multitude of monsters fighting in the arena suddenly stopped and started crowding towards him.

"Indeed, the bird that sticks out gets shot!" Xu Yi sighed inwardly.

He had, with West's help, killed a large number of corrupted monsters, and thus absorbed a vast amount of energy, becoming the strongest in the arena.

And the so-called strongest was also the thorn in the eye of all monsters.

Not only had his situation not improved, but it had also become even more dangerous.

......

Not long after Xu Yi left, a grand chanting began to echo through the church. Rein hid in a dark corner of the great hall, spying on the sacrifice ritual before him.

Rein saw the little girl, Sharon, at the center of the ritual, chained to an iron frame, which had a peculiar mark at its center.

The iron frame, suspended in mid-air, swayed gently.

One of Rein's goals for this mission was to rescue Sharon.

As a legendary exorcist holding the title of headmaster at the Isotope Institute, of course, not just anybody could manipulate him.

The reason he came in person was because he once owed a debt of gratitude to Sharon's foster parents.

There were two sides to the iron frame; the other side bound a charred human figure, whose eyes brimmed with despair and hatred.

Rein sensed a rich Dark Force emanating from the figure and his eyes showed a trace of pity.

Because he knew very well that the other was not born as an Evil God but had a miserable life led astray by the Cult.

"Such a shame!"

Rein sighed inwardly. If he had discovered the person earlier, he would have undoubtedly invited them to join the Isotope Institute.

He felt an exceptionally strong Mental Power from the person, whose Exorcism Talent was incredibly astonishing; even among his students, none was stronger.

The ritual began, and a woman in a lavish robe approached the core node of the Array, where all energies converged.

"The other must be the leader of the Cult," Rein thought to himself.

He felt a subtle fluctuation from the female cult leader and was secretly relieved.

Thank goodness he had sneaked in from underground; had he encountered her head-on, he would have suffered a tremendous loss.

If he wasn't wrong, she also wielded some of this world's Rule Power.

He then thought of the monster boy in the school uniform, his eyes filled with a forlorn expression.

After leading him to the bottom of the church, the boy could not enter and had to retrace his steps, his current whereabouts unknown.

"But these guys are really cautious!" Rein thought to himself.

Even though they held some authority in this world, there were still heavily armed guards in the church, especially around the main entrance.

What Rein didn't know was that it was because the church's main entrance had been visited by Xu Yi not long ago, and the heretics were extremely wary.

The grand chanting reached its climax, the Array's light illuminated the dome of the great hall, and the high priestess took out two metal tokens from her bosom, those were the seals of Metatron.

A force acted upon the seals of Metatron, making them rise into the air and merge into one.

Rein's eyes suddenly lit up, he had waited so long, and finally, the moment had come.

Now was the most crucial moment of the entire ritual, the Array's manipulator had to be fully focused, thus it was also the most vulnerable time.

Rein gripped the Pella Axe of the Storm in his hand, a legendary Holy Artifact.

He took a deep breath, and power brewed, the massive strength of the storm converging upon the axe.

He burst out of the shadows, hurling the Axe with all his might.

The Axe of the Storm spun, blue Wind Blades cutting across the sky, its target wasn't the high priestess, but the seal of Metatron hovering in midair, a crucial point of the entire ritual.

The high priestess sensed the terrifying force of the storm and her face went pale in shock.

Because of the Array, Metatron's seal was firmly fixed in midair, difficult to move, making it an excellent target.

The high priestess's heart hardened suddenly, and as she lunged towards the seal of Metatron, she used her body to block the Axe of the Storm.

Her body shielded the seal of Metatron, but the spinning axe bisected her lower body, and the remnants were obliterated by the hurricane.

Rein thought it a pity in his heart; he was just a bit short of destroying the source of the Array, but the enemy was too decisive.

Although the enemy was left with only half a body, he had to admit her choice was correct.

With the blessing of World Power, even if half of her body was destroyed, she wouldn't immediately die, and she might even use the power of the church to achieve "resurrection".

The high priestess turned abruptly, her eyes fixed on Rein, revealing a deep hatred.

Her efforts of several years were ruined in an instant.

Once the ritual was disrupted, it couldn't be restarted for several years. To collect the items needed for the ritual, the organization's resources had been nearly exhausted.

The invader was indeed strong, but this was her home ground, and she was determined to make him pay the price.

The Axe of the Storm began to return, trying to reach its master's hand, but the high priestess reached into the void, and the Axe was held motionless in midair by a strong force.

Rein's expression changed slightly, knowing full well the strength of the Axe's return.

The Axe being stopped in mid-return had happened less than a handful of times.

Rein's expression turned uglier, as he realized it wasn't just the Axe of the Storm, his own body was also immobilized, unable to move.

He was prepared for a bloody battle, but at that moment, a shadow pounced from a corner.

Rein was momentarily stunned; he felt a familiar aura from that shadow, the same one that had led him to the hospital.

"Stop her!" the high priestess saw the shadow and her complexion drastically changed, she bellowed.

But it was already too late, or perhaps Aleysha had chosen the timing too well.

In fact, Aleysha didn't have such a keen strategic insight, but Xu Yi had told her that after Rein launched his attack, she just needed to follow through with her move.

For Rein, an experienced exorcist, the ability to grasp the moment was absolutely top-notch.

Aleysha's target was the iron frame directly above, she crashed into Sharon, who was bound to the frame, and as if without a body, passed right through Sharon's form.

Sharon's face showed a painful expression, but she didn't die, only the part of the soul belonging to Aleysha within her was reclaimed.

Aleysha, undeterred, continued through the iron frame, merging into the burnt black human figure.

The unconscious burnt black figure suddenly opened its eyes, the purple-black glow in its pupils burning fiercely like flames.

The Origin, the benevolent soul, the malevolent soul... three in one, Aleysha was finally complete at this moment.
