NOVEL NEXT Chapter 699: The Eerie Kent Holden_2
Divine Arts: Guardian Song of the Fighter!
The Holy Scripture held by Kelleb suddenly erupted with a dazzling black and red brilliance, and a blood-red glow like a thin veil surrounded the bodies of the three.
In his ears faintly echoed the sounds of battle cries and the clashing of weapons, instantly blocking all the surging Shadow Power from outside.
This is a High Order Divine Skill from the War God Church, not only having extremely high protection but also able to eliminate the influence of various negative forces, while shocking the enemy's spirit.
Lis glanced curiously at the Holy Scripture in Kelleb's hand.
He recalled that during the last time he saw Kelleb battling that Legendary "Day Elf," he didn't use this Holy Scripture, instead wielding a huge Warhammer.
This blood-red Holy Scripture obviously contains the Slaughter Power of the War God Church, yet it gives Lis a feeling of sanctity.
This Holy Scripture is not just any ordinary Magic Equipment; it's very likely a Holy Artifact specially entrusted to Kelleb by the War God Church.
Lis felt a bit itchy.
Recently, Lis, engrossed in studying forging techniques, is very curious about any Holy Artifact, Half-God Artifact, and Divine Artifact.
But he hasn't had any actual items to study.
After it ends, see if he can "borrow" it from Kelleb for "inspection."
Unlike Kelleb, Philip directly launched a counterattack.
The three Alchemy Demons around him proactively took the offensive, like an extraordinarily coordinated Transcendent team.
The Elf Warrior wielded his Sword in his right hand, struck the Shield, and guarded in front of Philip and the other two Demons, constantly alert to enemy attacks.
The Elf Ranger's green longbow was pulled to a full moon, instantly shooting countless light blue Arrows into the distant shadows, resembling a meteor shower of descending might.
Lastly, the Elf Priest stood beside Philip, gently tapping the ground with his Oak Long Staff, casting a Divine Shield in front of everyone.
It's unclear how Philip did it, but these three Alchemy Demons respectively used the abilities of warrior, ranger, and priest professionals.
Lis could sense that these three Alchemy Demons all had Legendary Level strength.
Furthermore, these three Legendary Alchemy Demons seemed to possess a certain amount of autonomous consciousness, capable of proactive combat, relieving Philip's burden.
Impressive!
Philip is truly a Legendary Alchemist; just him alone is equivalent to an impeccably coordinated legendary squad.
And Philip himself is also equivalent to a Legendary Mage.
Generally, when legendary professionals first face Philip, they undoubtedly suffer a huge loss.
Meanwhile, with the tremor of the Shadow Nest, Lis can feel countless shadow creatures attacking the trio.
Probably due to the Shadow Nest's surging, seemingly inexhaustible Shadow Power, these shadow creatures are far stronger than those in Lonely Mountain City.
Each shadow creature, empowered by the Shadow Power, possesses Golden Rank power.
Though this isn't much for Lis and others, the number of shadow creatures is overwhelming.
At once blocked outside by Kelleb's blood-red glow, many were eliminated by Philip's Legendary Magic and Legendary Alchemy Demons.
Yet, those shadow creatures showed no fear at all as they kept attacking the trio.
"Come, feel the enthusiasm of my lovely children!"
The voice coldly chuckled:
"Since you've come to my Shadow Nest, you will never leave here."
Oh?
Lis raised his eyebrows, tentatively casting Space Transmission spell.
The spatial fluctuation barely formed before being destroyed, consumed by the vast Shadow Power surrounding it.
Seeing Lis's attempted failure, the voice laughed maniacally:
"My esteemed World Tree Favored, still not giving up?"
"If we were outside, I might indeed have no way against you."
"But in my Shadow Nest, I am the master of this space, and you can't possibly escape."
"Kill slowly, my children are endless."
"Wonder if feeding on the blood and flesh of the World Tree Favored will make my children stronger?"
"Hahahahahaha..."
"So much talk..."
Lis shook his head, smiling as he spoke.
Indeed, when he attempted to use Space Transmission earlier, he failed under the influence of the Shadow Power.
But for Lis, who has become a Legendary Arcanist, the impact is limited.
Lis is confident that before the trio exhaust themselves, he can figure out this variation and use Space Transmission to leave this space.
Moreover...
Lis felt in this space, thanks to the overwhelming Shadow Power, he could use the assassin skill [Shadow Jump] without any hindrance.
It means Lis has no difficulty leaving the Shadow Nest.
Even with Kelleb and Philip in tow, it's the same.
Perhaps this Evil God believer only knows Lis as a Legendary Mage, able to use Space Transmission, but doesn't know Lis also mastered assassin skills?
Even the surging Shadow Power has no effect on Lis.
Seeing Lis's unchanged expression, Kelleb and Philip were relieved and focused on repelling the shadow creature attacks.
However, Lis wasn't eager to leave.
Without responding to the Evil God believer, Lis casually slashed a Wind Blade at the shadow creature horde before him.
The Wind Element transformed into a dark green blade, directly crashing into the attacking shadow creatures.
Instantly, several shadow creatures were cleaved in half by Lis's Wind Blade, dissipating into Shadow Power, merging into the space.
Instantly, a message appeared before Lis.

-----------------
Oh?
Lis looked somewhat surprised at the system panel's prompt.
Is the opponent Kent Holden?
Lis had some impression of this person.
This is a rather special existence who believes in the Shadow King, mentioned in some side quests related to the Shadow King Church.
However, although it's said that this person is a strongman of the Shadow King Church, no one has seen their true appearance.
Also, it's rarely seen them make a move.
There are only two recorded instances, where other legends were attacked by this guy while exploring the Shadow Plane.
