The last one was Ah-Dai's turn, he walked over with a nervous heart, suddenly, an abnormally huge pressure pressed Ah-Dai to the point where he almost couldn't breathe, as if it wanted to crush him. The twenty Tiru warriors around him moved slightly. Just when Ah-Dai thought his Meng Wang sword had been discovered, the Meng Wang sword on his chest suddenly transmitted a fierce energy fluctuation, a cold energy instantly enveloped his entire body, and the surrounding pressure disappeared instantly. A stone at the top of the Temple of God's gate suddenly emitted a puff of green smoke, making a "kua" sound. Ah-Dai was startled, thinking that the temple had discovered the weapon on him, hurriedly stretched out his hand to touch his chest. Although he had only practiced Meng Flash once, he felt as if he could use it with confidence.

  The surrounding Ti Lu warriors did not move again, still standing in place with their battle-axes in hand. Ah-Dai quickly walked into the Ti Lu temple and finally let out a sigh of relief. Cold sweat had soaked through his underclothes, and he was extremely frightened as he thought about why he had almost used the Ming Wang sword earlier. If the Ming Wang sword were to be unsheathed, its evil energy would spread out, and it's likely that all twenty Ti Lu warriors around him would have died. Perhaps it was that inexplicable pressure that made him think of using the Ming Wang sword. Putting down his hand which had been pressed against his chest, Ah-Dai took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and quickly chased after Xuan Yue.

  Entering the temple, it is a narrow and long corridor. On both sides of the corridor, there would be a torch every ten meters. The light from the torches was not very bright, making the corridor seem extremely dim. Everyone was being very cautious, walking while looking around in all directions, and everyone had a feeling of being watched, as if the temple contained some kind of special energy.

  Xuan Yue turned around and saw Ah Dai catching up, asking in a low voice: "Why are you so slow?"

  "Nothing," Ah Diao shook his head and said. "Let's go quickly, Yueyue. Don't you feel that this place is very mysterious?"

  Xuan Yue nodded, touched the slightly hot Phoenix Blood at her chest, and said in a low voice: "This temple seems to have a special kind of energy, very vast."

  Yan Ju seemed to have discovered Ah Dai and Xuan Yue's conversation, turned his head and glared at them, Ah Dai hurriedly shut up and stopped talking.

  Yan Ju and Yan Li led the crowd through several turns in the temple, and suddenly the front became wide open. The corridor became wider, and after walking tens of meters forward, the surroundings suddenly became exceptionally empty, with no torches appearing on both sides. Yan Ju and Yan Li stopped their footsteps. Yan Li respectfully said: "Tribe leader, we have brought the people here."

  Suddenly, the sound of puffing came, and the surroundings suddenly lit up. Several dozen giant torches were ignited at the same time. It turned out that this was a large hall with an area of several hundred square meters. On both sides of the hall stood over a hundred Ti Lu warriors, who, like the warriors outside, also held giant long-handled battle axes. In front of them was a high platform of several tens of meters, on which two people were standing. One was a tall and majestic Pu Yan tribe member, looking around sixty years old, wearing a gray robe that covered his towering body, with brown hair scattered behind him, and eyes shining brightly like electricity, making Ah Dang and the others feel very uneasy. The person beside him was shrouded in a black cloak, their face obscured, giving off an eerie feeling like a magician.

  The old man in grey robes waved his hand and Yan Ju and Yan Li retreated to the side, lowering their heads with a very respectful expression.

  "Foreigners, greetings. Welcome to the Tilu Temple of our Buliyo tribe. I am Yan Fei, the chief of the Buliyo tribe, and this is our tribe's prophet, Pu Lin. What happened to my son, Yan Shi, is something that no one wanted to see. He is still in a daze now. Previously, Yan Li was very impulsive and tried to harm you, I apologize for his behavior on his behalf. Now, please tell me the details of what happened when you encountered my son, without leaving out any details." Yan Fei's expression was extremely solemn, clearly distressed by his son's ordeal.

  When Yuen heard Yan Fei speaking so politely, Yue Hen couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and stepped forward, saying: "Greetings, respected leader of the Pu Yan tribe. We are all mercenaries preparing to complete a mission for the Tian Yuan tribe, and we happened to pass through your noble territory..." Yue Hen had strong expressive abilities and detailedly recounted how they met Yan Shi and everything that followed.

  After listening to Yuehen's account, Yan Fei fell into deep thought. After a long while, he looked at the black-robed person beside him and said, "Prophet Prin, what do you think about this matter?"

  A low, aged voice echoed in the great hall, "Tribe leader, with my abilities I can only see some images of the future, but cannot determine everything. I have gone to see the bodies of Rock and Cloudy, and it is certain that these outsiders are not the murderers of Cloudy. Can't you see that they are all virgins? Do you still remember what I said when Rock was young, that at 26 years old he would encounter a great calamity? This calamity will have a huge impact on Rock, but there is no danger to his life. When the calamity occurs, it will also be the beginning of his new life, and he will meet a noble person who can bring weapons into the temple. As long as this noble person is present, Rock will be able to turn danger into safety. However, if the murderer kills him before Rock wakes up, Rock will forever sink into the underworld and cannot attain eternal life."

  Yan Fei Yan said, "Pu Lin Xian Zhi, who is that noble person you mentioned?"

  Prophet Prin lifted the black hood on his head, revealing a full head of white hair. His ancient face was covered in wrinkles, but he had a pair of exceptionally clear eyes that seemed to see through everything. Even the arrogant Xuan Yue couldn't help but lower her head when she saw those eyes. In the great hall, only Ah-Dai could meet his gaze without being affected. Prophet Prin scanned Ah-Dai and the others with one glance, saying: "This person has appeared, right among these outsiders. However, this is a heavenly secret that cannot be revealed lightly. Please treat these outsiders kindly, Tribe Leader. Starting tomorrow, let them interact with the Rock, and it will surely help the Rock come out of its sorrow. But before that, you must ensure the Rock's safety."

  Yan's eyes gleamed with a hint of joy, and he said: "Thank you, Prophet Prin. Yan Ju, Yan Li, tonight, you two will lead the warriors to protect the safety of our tribe."

  "Respected Prophet Prin, since there are noble people among this group who can help Rock Brother recover, why not let them go to Rock Brother now? Wouldn't that allow them to help Rock Brother recover more quickly?"

  Pu Rin smiled benevolently and said, "Yan Li, you're still so impulsive. All of this is arranged by fate, I'd better not say more, just follow the orders of the clan leader."

  Yan Ju La pulled Yan Li and said: "Respectfully following the instructions of the clan elder."

  Yan Fei looked at Prophet Prin with a thoughtful expression, then turned to Ah Dui and the others: "Alright, Yan Li, take these foreigners to rest first. Tomorrow morning, follow the prophet's method and let our guests interact with the rock."

  Yan Li responded with a nod, and his gaze towards Ah Dai and the others softened considerably. He said lightly, "Please, everyone."

  Just as Ah Diao and others were about to follow Yan Li and Yan Ju to leave, Pu Lin Xian suddenly said: "Wait a minute."

  Everyone looked back in confusion and turned to Prin. Prin said: "This young brother and this miss, please stay for a moment. I have something to say to you."

  Without Prin's deliberate indication, Ah-Dai and Xuan-Yue simultaneously felt that Prin was referring to themselves. Xuan-Yue asked: "Is there something you can't say now?" In Xuan-Yue's eyes, the old sage in front of her was the only person who could make her feel frightened, aside from the Cardinals and the Pope, so she spoke more politely.

  Prophet Prin smiled slightly and said, "There are some things that must be said to you alone. Don't you want to hear this old man's chatter?"

  Pu's kind smile deeply infected Ah-Dai, a sense of intimacy surged into his heart like a tide, although it was only the first meeting, but it seemed as if they had known each other for a long time.

  Yuè Hén Chōng ā Dāi and Xuán Yuè exchanged a glance, saying: "Since the fortune teller has something to say to you all, we'll take our leave first."

  Yan didn't cough, and said: "Yan Ju, Yan Li, you should quickly take the guest to rest. The safety of the rock at night is your responsibility, don't make any mistakes."

  Yan Ju and Yan Li looked at each other, bowed their heads and said: "Yes." After finishing speaking, they led Yue Hen and others to return from the original road and head towards the outer temple of Ti Ru. Only Ah Dai and Xuan Yue stayed behind.

  Prophet Pu Rin closed his eyes and said: "Now it's late in the evening, it's time for dinner. Tribal chief, you have something to do, remember what I said."

  Although Yan Fei was the leader of the Pu Yan tribe, he seemed to show great respect for this old priest. Upon hearing his words, he nodded slightly and said, "Then I'll take my leave first, Pu Lin Xianzhi." After finishing speaking, he quickly exited. In the grand hall of the temple, apart from those Ti Lu warriors who remained motionless, only Xuan Yue, Ah Dai, and the mysterious Pu Lin Xianzhi were left.

  Prophet Brigham descended from the stand by a flight of stairs at one side, his body trembling and looking very weak, as though he would fall if he did not have the support of his staff.

  Ah-Dai looked at Prophet Prin's stumbling steps, and his heart felt a pang of sympathy. He quickly stepped forward to support him. As soon as he grasped the prophet's hands, a sharp glint flashed in the prophet's eyes, making Ah-Dai feel like he was being completely seen through, sending shivers down his spine.

  Pulin sighed and said, "I'm old, really old. My body is not doing well. Come on, kids, I'll take you to a place." After finishing speaking, he turned his head towards the platform he had just come down from, and beckoned to Xuanyue, signaling her to come over. Compared to Ah Dai, Xuanyue was much more vigilant. From Pulin's attitude towards them and Yan Fei, it could be seen that this white-haired old man had a supreme position in the entire Puyan tribe. So why did he want to keep himself and Ah Dai, two outsiders? The Puyan tribe wasn't one that hated outsiders the most, right? Although she thought so, Xuanyue still walked over. She didn't know why she went over so easily, but she also understood that Pulin had no malicious intentions towards her and Ah Dai.

  The prophet Pulin looked at Xuan Yue, who had walked to his side, and said: "Little girl, what are you worried about with this old man? Let me tell you, the Temple of Tilu is the most sacred place for our Puyan tribe. Here, absolutely nothing can be done that is not pure, otherwise, it will definitely be punished by the gods." Ah, children, we have been waiting for a long time." As he spoke, a strong suction force suddenly appeared on Pulin's body, tightly pulling A Dai and Xuan Yue to his side. He raised the wooden staff in his hand and muttered a few spells under his breath. In a flash of light, Xuan Yue and A Dai simultaneously felt themselves entering an unfamiliar world. Their bodies seemed to be out of their control, surrounded by unbelievable colors, and rainbow-colored lights floated constantly from their bodies. The dizzying feeling filled the two people's bodies, they wanted to shout but couldn't make a sound, they wanted to struggle but couldn't control their bodies. Pulin, who was beside them, closed his eyes and continued to chant in a low voice.

  Everything went black, and all the light points disappeared. Just as Xuan Yue and Ah Dai were shocked, everything suddenly lit up again, and all sensations instantly returned to their bodies. The suction force from Pu Lin's body also disappeared. Ah Dai and Xuan Yue found themselves in a corridor, with a huge golden six-pointed star under their feet. The six-pointed star had many complex symbols on it that neither Ah Dai nor Xuan Yue could understand. The walls of the corridor were embedded with fire-red gemstones, each slightly smaller than a fist, emitting a faint glow. Even with Ah Dai and Xuan Yue's sharp eyesight, they could only see things within ten meters. Xuan Yue knew clearly that these red gemstones were called Huo Yun Shi, although not very precious, but the sudden appearance of such a large number of Huo Yun Shi was still surprising. Moreover, to make Huo Yun Shi glow, magical power was needed, it seemed that this Ti Lu Temple was indeed full of secrets.

  Prin the Prophet stood there as if nothing had happened, not making a sound. Xuan Yue's heart suddenly felt anxious and she subconsciously used the most basic low-level magic of the Light System, Illumination Technique. However, to her surprise, it seemed like there were no magical elements in the surrounding air, no matter how she chanted the incantation, no magical fluctuations were produced.

  "Kid, don't try anymore. Here, no one else can use magic except me. You could say this is my domain." After saying that, he swung the wooden staff in his hand again, and a gust of wind element force suddenly appeared in the originally empty corridor, gently lifting up the three people's bodies and slowly drifting them deeper into the corridor. Every hundred meters or so, a red fire cloud stone would appear on the walls on both sides, providing a thread of light. Xuan Yue knew that this Prin's magical level had already reached an extremely high realm. The magic he used earlier was probably the legendary array transmission magic, which even her father couldn't do! And now, the wind magic he was using wasn't particularly profound, but being able to use another type of magic in a place without any magical elements, seemingly without expending any effort, left her extremely astonished. Ah Dai was shocked by the series of events, but he never spoke up. He had an inexplicable trust in Prin, which made him not have any fear psychology.

  It was unknown how much time had passed when the wind element disappeared, and the three of them fell to the ground. In front of them were two large stone gates, with a Tiru warrior standing on either side. Unlike the other Tiru warriors outside, these two were not only taller but also wore armor that emitted a faint golden glow. As soon as the three landed, they crossed their long-handled battle axes, blocking the way forward. A strong and solemn aura emanated from the two Tiru warriors, instantly enveloping the three of them. The immense pressure made Ah-Dai and Xuan-Yue almost unable to breathe, and they couldn't even think about resisting because these two Tiru warriors were too powerful. The surging pressure completely suppressed Xuan-Yue and Ah-Dai, rendering them immobile.

  Purin stood there motionless, seemingly unaware of Aito and Gengetsu's situation. The pressure from the Til warriors also seemed to have no effect on him.

  The enormous pressure was already taking its toll on Ah-Dai and Xuan-Yue's bodies, Ah-Dai looked at Xuan-Yue's pained expression, his heart racing wildly, he let out a low growl, and pushed the True Qi within him to its limits, a faint white glow emanated from his body, shielding himself and Xuan-Yue.

  Xuan Yue's body felt light, and she could move again. She turned her head to look at Ah Dai, who was already half-kneeling on the ground, with beads of sweat continuously falling from his forehead. The white glow in front of them was trembling non-stop. Xuan Yue understood that Ah Dai had taken all the pressure onto himself. Her heart was deeply shocked, and she clearly understood that everything was for her sake! A surge of gratitude filled her heart, and without hesitation, she took out the Phoenix Blood from her neckline.

  It seems that he also felt the danger, and the Phoenix Blood emitted a strange red light, dissolving into Ah Diao's white aura to resist the enormous pressure.

  He was already at his limit, a thread of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, but the Phoenix Blood helped him share some of the pressure in time. He suddenly felt much more relaxed. In the face of danger, he subconsciously reached for the Ming Wang sword on his chest with his right hand, and an icy, evil aura burst out. A faint gray glow appeared from his chest, and the red glow of the Phoenix Blood dimmed. Under the effect of the white, gray, and red glows, the pressure on him and Xuan Yue was completely blocked three feet in front of them.

  Two of the Thir warriors seemed to sense the change in them, raising their long-handled battle-axes and assuming a posture of readiness to attack.

  Xuan Yue and Ah Diao were both shocked at the same time. The pressure earlier had already made them exhausted, if these two extremely powerful warriors in front of them launched an attack, the consequences would be unimaginable. Xuan Yue's mouth slightly opened, preparing to chant the strongest spell of Phoenix Blood, while Ah Diao also took a stance ready to use the Underworld Sword. Ah Diao clearly felt that although the Underworld Sword's evil power was strong, it wouldn't harm Xuan Yue who had the protection of Phoenix Blood. As for the unfathomable Prophet Prin, he wasn't worth worrying about, what he needed to deal with were just these two exceptionally powerful warriors.

  Just as both sides were about to launch a full-scale attack, the Prophet Prin finally opened his eyes and said faintly, "Alright, stop." Two blue rays of light shot out from his body, piercing through Xuan Yue and Ah Dai's defenses, and directly hit the two Tiro warriors' foreheads. The two Tiro warriors simultaneously withdrew their battle-axes, as if nothing had happened, and stood back in their original positions, with the pressure also disappearing at the same time.

  Ah-Dai and Xuan-Yue both had a feeling of leaning forward, Ah-Dai was subjected to the most force, and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of fresh blood. He knelt weakly on the ground, panting loudly. Xuan-Yue wasn't much better off, his face pale, with sweat seeping into his temples, his right hand tightly grasping the Phoenix's Blood, glaring furiously at Prophet Prin.

  Two soft white glows were emitted from the hands of Prophet Pulin, covering Xuan Yue and Ah Dai in a flash. Under the effect of the glow, both of them felt warm all over their bodies, feeling an indescribable comfort, as if the previous fatigue and injuries had disappeared. Ah Dai stood up, looked at Xuan Yue who was still stunned, and then asked Pulin: "Prophet, what's going on?"

  Prophet Prin's face showed a gentle smile, and he sighed, saying: "It's true, the combination of good and evil, the unity of light and darkness, with the blood of the phoenix as the guide, has crossed many obstacles. We finally meet, you are the ones I have been waiting for thirty years!"

  Not to mention Ah Diao didn't understand, even the extremely intelligent Xuan Yue was stunned. She slightly scolded: "Prophet Prin, shouldn't you explain it to us?"

  Pulin the Prophet gazed at Xuan Yue and said, "Behind these two stone gates lies a secret that has been kept by our Puyan tribe for thousands of years. You have arrived here solely because of the guidance of the heavens. Children, once you follow me through these two stone gates, your fate will be altered, and everything will unfold according to the direction indicated by the heavens. Come, inside, I will tell you all that you wish to know. Thirty years! I have finally waited for you." After finishing speaking, he lightly swung his wooden staff, and with a creaking sound, the two massive stone gates slowly opened. Behind the gates was a vast darkness. Pulin the Prophet paused for a moment, then said, "Follow me," and walked in, seemingly lost in thought.

  Xuan Yue hastily went up to Ah Dai's side and anxiously asked: "How are you? Are you alright?"

  A'Dai looked at the Ti'lu warriors on both sides of the stone gate with a lingering fear in his heart, shook his head and said, "I'm fine, let's go."

  Xuan Yue nodded, having come this far, there was no turning back, and they could only move forward, taking it one step at a time. The two followed Prophet Prin into the dark stone gate. As soon as they stepped through the gate, the stone door behind them suddenly closed, and the massive sound reverberated endlessly in the empty stone cave.

  Xuan Yue's body shook, and she grasped Ah Dai's warm and thick hand, her voice trembling as she said: "Ah Dai, you must protect me!" In this mysterious and eerie temple, even someone as brave as Xuan Yue couldn't help but feel fear.

  For the first time, Ah-Dai felt that Xuan Yue was so helpless and weak, and he couldn't help but stir up the protective instincts in his chest. He tightly grasped Xuan Yue's hand, and a faint white glow emanated from his body, enveloping both himself and Xuan Yue within it. Xuan Yue's entire body warmed up, feeling much more at ease, and her whole body leaned against Ah-Dai's, as if only there could she find a haven to shield herself from the storm.

  This is a closed space without light, surprisingly, there is no feeling of suffocation here.

  "In my name, with your power, go! The power of the gods." The aged voice of Prophet Prin echoed, and suddenly the surroundings lit up. Xuan Yue and Ah-Dai found that this was not a very large cave, and the light came from the gems on the walls around them. A faint yellow glow brought light to the interior of the cave. Prophet Prin stood in the center of the cave, gazing at the stone wall in front of him. The surrounding stone walls, including the top of the cave, were covered with murals. Those large and lifelike murals seemed exceptionally mysterious under the illumination of the gems' radiance.

  Pulin slowly walked up to Ah-Dai and Xuan-Yue, sighed, and said: "Children, this is where the experiences of my Pulin tribe for ten thousand years are recorded."

  Xuan Yue furrowed his brow and said: "What does your Pu Yan tribe's thousand-year experience have to do with us, why must you bring us here?"

  Pu Lin didn't directly answer Xuan Yue's question, but instead smiled slightly and said: "Little girl, how old do you think I am this year?"

  Xuan Yue looked at him with a puzzled expression, saying: "You're so old, you must be eighty or ninety years old."

  A hint of sadness flashed in Pu Lin's eyes, he shook his head and said: "Yan Fei tribe leader and I grew up playing together, he is sixty-two years old this year, and I am one year younger than him."

  Xuan Yue and Ah Dai stared at Pu Lin in surprise, Pu Lin smiled self-deprecatingly and said: "Do you know why I look so old at the age of sixty-one?"

  A'Dai shook his head blankly, and Xuan Yue said thoughtfully: "Is it because of your title as a prophet?"

  Pulin nodded and said, "You're right. As a seer like me, I'm similar to the priests of your Sacred Church in some ways. We are all the most loyal followers of the gods. In terms of strength, I am far inferior to the priests of the church. However, I have one more ability than they do." Pulin's eyes flashed with two sharp glints as he said this. "I have the ability to predict the future. Children, in our tribe, seers hold absolute power, even the tribal chief must obey the orders of the seer. Our tribe has dozens of clans, and this is the largest one. The Tilu Temple is where the seer worships the gods and senses the future. There can only be one seer in our tribe, and they are always designated by the previous generation's seer. I can say that I am the most gifted among all the generations of seers. You should know about the Blood Day a few years ago, little girl from the Sacred Church."

  Xuan Yue's heart skipped a beat, and she involuntarily exclaimed: "You're talking about the Great Calamity of a thousand years? How did you know I'm from the Sacred Church?"

  Prin smiled slightly and said, "Anyone with discerning eyes can see that the sacred aura emanating from you is not something an ordinary light system magician can possess. If I'm not mistaken, your elders must be Red Robe Priests of the Church, and to have been allowed to wear the Phoenix Blood, a treasure of the Church, means you must have an extraordinary relationship with His Holiness the Pope. Am I right?"

  Xuan Yue nodded vaguely, "Then you called us here, could it be related to the Millennium Calamity?"

  A'Dai looked at Xuan Yue and Pu Lin in shock, saying: "What's going on with the Thousand Year Calamity? And what does it have to do with that bloody rain five years ago?"

  Xuan Yue hummed and said, "When the Blood Moon hangs in the sky, a calamity must emerge. The Blood Rain will fall on the world, and the Great Calamity is about to befall the continent. This legend, don't you know it?"

  "Alas, I don't know what this thousand-year calamity has to do with us?"

  "Alas," said Prin, "if it were not for your connection to me, I would not have called you here. It is the gods who have guided you to my presence, great saviors of the calamity."

  Ah-Dai hadn't reacted yet, but Xuan Yue was already trembling all over with shock. "W-what did you say? You said we're the saviors of the thousand-year calamity?" The concept of a savior was very clear to her. Five years ago, on the day of the Blood Moon, the Pope had issued an order for all clergy members to search for the impending savior. The only clue left behind by the Pope was a single sentence: "Goodness, evil, dragon, phoenix, love." These unclear words had puzzled all the clergy members, and after five years, they still hadn't found any leads. The Pope had once said that if they couldn't find the savior, the world would fall into chaos, and the entire continent would be shrouded in a storm of blood and darkness.

  Prophet Pu Rin turned around, with his back to Ah Dumb and Xuan Yue, saying: "Although the Pope's divine power is profound, he is still a sacrificial priest after all. The reason I can clearly know that you are the saviors is not only because of my prophetic identity but also because thirty years ago, before the Blood Day arrived, I used thirty years of my life as a price to beg for the fate of our Pu Rock tribe and got more detailed divine instructions, which were related to the savior. So, you see me looking so old. I am sixty-one this year, plus thirty years of lifespan, naturally becoming ninety-one years old in appearance. Child, say the savior's password that you know."

  Xuan Yue was completely shocked, while Ah Dai beside her still didn't understand what Prin and Xuan Yue were talking about.

  "Your Holiness, the Pope, had obtained a clue about the Savior during his confrontation with Blood Day. It was just a few vague words: 'Goodness, Evil, Dragon, Phoenix, Love.'" Although this was a secret of the Vatican, Xuan Yue revealed it anyway. The elderly prophet before her inspired a sense of reverence in her.
