Chapter 683: The Battle of the Monarch
"coming."
"Yeah, it's finally time to start."
"Don't forget what we agreed to do."
"Just wait and see what happens."
Time passed quickly. At this moment, the eleven great masters who were born in Wuyin Lingfang one after another all felt that the long-awaited election for the master of the Fang world was about to come.
With the sound of neat jingling bells, chains dropped from the sky and landed precisely in front of the chiefs.
The great heads of the neighborhood, who were originally scattered in groups of three or two, immediately reached out to grab the chains that were hanging in front of them and held them tightly. In order to seize the opportunity, some of them did not even waste a second and climbed up quickly.
"Master Locke, we——"
"Go up, there might be some benefits to being the first."
People are often like this. Once someone takes the lead, others will not want to fall behind.
At this moment, the chief abbots didn't care whether it was appropriate or not and started to climb up along the chains.
The chains started to move on their own, moving upwards and pulling everyone towards the center of the plane, bringing the group of people to a location not far away.
The chief monks on the chains were even more stimulated and kept climbing up.
The whole scene looks quite spectacular.
Soon, they arrived under the black and white mist. A terrible pressure came from above, making many people feel cold and stiff.
"My goodness, this is probably how the sinful spirit feels when it is under the sin-killing mill. Don't tell me that we will also experience being crushed to pieces again and again. It's not easy to be the master of this world."
"It has come to this point, it is impossible to give up."
Locke couldn't help but slow down his climbing speed, looking up and staring at the misty air above, always feeling that there was a great terror in it.
When the time came, no matter how uncomfortable he felt, he had no choice but to go on.
"My goodness, there are spots of light on your body."
The chains hanging from above kept rising, as if someone was pulling them from the top. Everyone was blown by the misty air outside, and all kinds of light spots appeared immediately, blood red, dark green, purple and blue, like the manifestation of curse power in varying degrees.
The first thing Locke thought of was the analysis of his boss, Wizard Ivan.
Based on their first experience as the master of the Fangjie, they will most likely need to further "cleanse" themselves to be promoted to the master of the Fangjie, cutting off all the shackles and constraints of the past and becoming clean and innocent.
In other words, these spots of light of different colors represent various vows, agreements, contracts, and covenants that have nothing to do with Wuyin Lingfang.
"The boss is the boss, everything can be predicted."
"Now, I'm afraid everyone will be free. It's up to them to choose who to vote for and who not to vote for. All the calculations in the past will be in vain."
As someone who strives to get to the top, Locke's mind was full of thoughts, but his hands did not stop moving. He moved up and down, and was soon submerged in the misty air.
The misty air is actually composed of high-level sin-eliminating power and purification power.
After his body was completely inside, he experienced for the first time the horror of the power of sin-eliminating and purification. As the swirling mist washed over him, he felt as if he was being cut into pieces by a thousand knives.
After being washed by the misty air, the light spots that appeared on his body indeed became lighter.
"The connection to the Three Lifespans Secret Method is also being purified. I need to go back and find Boss and Jenny to recharge it."
Locke did not forget to sense the changes in his body. It was normal for all living things to be washed away. The only thing he was worried about was Dante. Dante had been sent by him to the bottom of the sin-extinguishing mill and crushed day and night. It was reasonable for him to bear a grudge and rebel.
In this way, he endured the pain that penetrated deep into his soul, endured the mental shock, and continued to move forward.
The same was true for the other grand masters. They all found it difficult to remain calm and kept weighing the pros and cons.
"call--"
I don’t know how long it took, but this torturous journey finally came to an end. Figures emerged from the bottom one after another. They felt their bodies suddenly lighten and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
This is a simple yet complex world. There is a gigantic mill with no end in sight above and another gigantic mill with no end underfoot. Both mills are made of the power of sin elimination and purification.
Each giant mill is composed of two parts, one half is white and the other half is black, with clear distinction. It is obviously of higher quality than the giant sin-eliminating mills on earth.
The chain extended from the giant mill above, and retracted on its own after the people arrived.
After a while, the eleven chief masters of Wuyin Lingfang arrived here.
The group looked at each other.
Sure enough, the curse-like spots on everyone's body were washed away, and the atmosphere suddenly became weird.
However, they knew their limits and no one acted rashly. After all, there was a gaze coming from nowhere, watching their every move.
'coming. ’
It was exceptionally quiet here, and suddenly, some papers were falling down.
The heads of the temple felt nervous and watched the paper float in front of them. They reached out to take it.
A piece of white paper with a black chain pattern on one side and a black millstone pattern on the other side, nothing else.
They knew in their hearts that these three different things represented the Judgment Code, the Soul Prison Chains, and the Sin-Extinguishing Mill, and also corresponded to their own identities as grand masters.
They could also sense that the tiny piece of paper contained tremendous power.
However, the pages do not belong to them, but need to be voted for the master of the Fang world in their minds. The one with the most votes wins, and in this way, an acting Fang master is selected to temporarily exercise some of the authority of Wuyin Lingfang.
Everyone present understood that this was how the leader of the forum was selected, and they all became excited.
"Perform according to the plan." Powell couldn't help but speak. He was speaking to several nearby chiefs. The four of them had already made an alliance.
"Haha, this method is very good. It is fair, just and open." Locke interrupted with a smile.
The voices of the two broke the original silence. As soon as they finished speaking, they felt inexplicable concern and the pressure on them increased greatly, as if it was a warning from the eyes of the mother of all things in the Infinite Spiritual House.
Not only that, they were also punished.
The Mother of All Things silently issued an order, ordering them to vote first and second and to make a decision immediately.
"I am confident that I can bring Wuyin Lingfang to a new level. I choose myself to be the master of the world." Powell had already made up his mind.
"I, Locke Marichatton, choose myself."
Locke did the same and gave the answer in his mind without hesitation.
The two did not choose to vote for anyone else, and the paper remained in their hands.
When it was the next Grand Master's turn, Tosh's face turned a little embarrassed. It was obviously his turn to vote.
"Tosh, don't forget—"
"jingle."
Powell was just about to persuade him not to forget the previous covenant when a chain quickly dropped down and bound him. He was immediately pulled into the giant mill above to suffer the pain of being cut into pieces.
When he was released, he looked extremely listless and his body was shaking unconsciously, which showed how severe the punishment was.
This is being used as a warning to others!
“I choose myself too.”
Tosh said immediately, causing Powell to look up and glare at him, but he didn't dare to say anything else.
Seeing this, Locke smiled.
These guys are all ambitious people, and the so-called 'Alliance of Four', which prevents others from taking the position of dyeing master, is, as expected, of little use.
However, his thoughts were quickly refuted. The covenant was still useful, and Diwei among the four followed it.
"Powell Jones, I would like to respect you as the master of the community." The covenant between the four people listed various possible situations. In this case, according to the terms of the agreement, Powell should be chosen.
Furthermore, Powell is only a temporary replacement, and there is always a chance for others to take his place.
After Diwei made his selection, the paper in his hand floated in front of Powell. Powell changed his previous gloomy expression and grabbed it.
Powell was still not satisfied. He looked at Woolley and other people with whom he had made an agreement with burning eyes. The meaning was self-evident.
Perhaps his gaze was too naked, which once again aroused the dissatisfaction of the Mother of All Things. This time, the Mother of All Things did not punish him, but urged the others to immediately choose the abbot of their choice.
"Locke Marichatton, I wish to honor you as the master of the Fang world."
"Toshi Batoba, I wish to honor you as the master of Fangjie."
"Powell Jones, I would like to honor you as the master of the Fang world."
“——”
At once, many voices came out at once, and the scene became very lively.
After the selection, the paper used for selection flew towards the selected target. This scene was particularly eye-catching and could be seen clearly by everyone.
The eleven are divided into three parts: four, two, and five.
The results are clear at a glance.
"impossible!"
"How could it be you?"
"hehe."
Some people's faces turned black, some were directly defeated, and some showed the smile of a winner.
No matter what they thought in their hearts, the ending had been decided. The first head of the Wuyin Spiritual Workshop was Locke Marichatton, and what he had to pay was two primary force artifacts.
In fact, Locke not only won over two people, but signed a total of four contracts. Fortunately, everything went smoothly in the end.
"Crash."
With a series of light sounds, all the pages flew to him and fell into his hands.
In the sight of everyone, all the power contained in the paper was divided into three parts. Locke's three treasures of the Great Monk floated out involuntarily, and the power represented by the chain was integrated into the soul-prisoning chain, that is, the grinding bracelet.
The power represented by the millstone flows into the sin-killing mill.
The power represented by the white paper itself is infused into the Pure Book of Judgment.
The three treasures of the Grand Master glowed with divine light and began to transform towards a new level. Soon, they all jumped from semi-force artifacts to primary force artifacts, and continued to improve.
After a while, the transformation of the three treasures stopped.
This indicates that the identity of the acting lord has become worthy of the name.
"Great Mother of All Things, thank you very much for your gift. We will not disturb your peace any longer." Locke took back the treasure with satisfaction, then understood and said goodbye to the Mother of All Things.
Before others could follow suit, a group of people were sent out.
When I looked up again, the misty air at the top of the sky had disappeared without a trace.
"Cough cough."
"Meet the abbot."
"Meet the abbot."
A certain abbot pretended to cough, and someone responded immediately, which made other people feel particularly bad, but no matter what, they could not lose face, so they could only suppress their displeasure and bow.
"Master Locke, I really agree with that statement," Martin said sincerely.
"What are you talking about, Martin?" Locke knew that he was trying to do something bad and couldn't help laughing.
"Under your leadership, our Wuyin Lingfang will definitely be able to reach a new height." Martin continued.
Hearing the two people agreeing with each other, Powell's face darkened. These were clearly the words he had just said. How could this be possible?
"That's a good point, but don't say anything that's not conducive to unity."
"Yes, the abbot's words are thought-provoking. Martin will keep them in mind."
Winners have the attitude of winners. Locke, Martin and Dante certainly have reasons to be happy, but there are still many things they haven't figured out completely, so they are not in a hurry to change anything for the time being.
Locke gestured to a few people and took them away.
"Tosh, look at what you have done. We set the rules beforehand, why did you change your mind at the last minute? Otherwise, it would have been a great opportunity for an outsider."
As soon as they left, Powell could no longer hold back and attacked Tosh directly.
If Tosh hadn't been messing around, there wouldn't have been this embarrassing situation.
"What rules? Your rules, or the rules from above? Stop making trouble. He is only the acting abbot now. I don't believe you will remain indifferent. Let's wait and see."
There was no way Tosh would let Powell scold him without fighting back.
He also thought it through. Although the current de facto leader was unpleasant to the eye, he still preferred the current situation to Powell taking the position. There was a higher probability of overtaking the past.
At this moment, he keenly realized that the power level constraints brought by the Wuyin Spiritual Workshop were slowly being loosened, which means that he would have the opportunity to break through to the next level first.
Once he does this, the position of abbot will change hands.
There's no need to talk so much nonsense with Powell.
"You--are unreasonable."
Tosh and his men left cleanly, but Powell was very angry. He hated this guy who was incapable of doing anything but always caused trouble and always made excuses.
The others had no interest in talking any more and left one by one.
On the other side, as soon as Locke returned to his residence, he fulfilled the promise he had made earlier.
"Sifni, Marcus, I won't say much to thank you. I am a man of my word. This is yours."
"Thank you, Master."
According to the chronological order of becoming the Grand Master, Sifani was the eighth. Compared with Tosh's coercion and inducement, she finally chose the greater benefit.
Marcus is the tenth or eleventh seat.
He and Martin were assisted by the Mother of All Things, who gave them a push at the last minute, and became grandmasters at almost the same time, with no particular order.
Marcus also wanted to obtain a primary force weapon, so he blocked Locke's hand and got a space blade. The physiques of these people were not much different, and the use of the space blade complemented each other. After the two received it, they hurriedly expressed their gratitude.
There is no doubt that the Blade of Space was created by the True Wizard Throne.
Locke has three of them on him. If there is one more person supporting him, he will have to give away the space blade he used before.
"You don't have to be jealous. Next time I have a chance, I will go and ask the True Wizard Throne for a Space Blade for each of you."
After watching the two leave, Locke turned around and said to Martin and Dante beside him.
Martin and Dante said no repeatedly, they knew very well that without Locke's support, they would not have the opportunity to become an ancient king in a short time, so how could they not be satisfied.
"The Spirit House is evolving, so we can't let our guard down."
Seeing this, Locke didn't say much, but just felt a little emotional.
As the acting abbot, he knew better than anyone that the Wuyin Spiritual Shop seemed to have entered a new stage. The power of the plane was slowly increasing, and the original constraints on the strength of the local creatures were being loosened little by little.
Thinking of the people around him with evil intentions, Locke couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency. (End of this chapter)
