The Healer More Powerful Than A Warrior - Chapter 436 - 436: Calamity Giant Divine Soldier

“If I take the Holy Stele away, how long can you hold out?”

Lin Ye turned his head and asked.

The two priests were momentarily stunned, but quickly recovered. The curly-haired priest spoke up, “I can’t say for sure, but half an hour should be no problem.”

The chubby priest calculated for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Of course, it was because of Lin Ye’s Holy Light Feather, which restored them directly to their peak state. Otherwise, in their previous condition, without the protection of the Holy Stele, they would have been torn to pieces by the demons in the surrounding miasma.

Now, if the two of them were to cooperate, relying on the Holy Light’s restraint over the undead demons, they might not be able to counterattack, but they could protect themselves for a while.

As long as they didn’t encounter Boss-level demons, they could even hold out for a longer time.

“Half an hour, huh?”

Lin Ye slightly nodded and said, “Then take care of yourselves, I’m leaving now.”

With that, Lin Ye turned around and left without looking back, his figure gradually obscured by the continuously advancing poisonous miasma.

Watching Lin Ye leave, the two priests remained silent throughout.

They knew very well that from the perspective of Church Court personnel, they absolutely couldn’t allow Lin Ye to take the Sunrise Holy Stele, but at this moment, neither of them stopped him.

Firstly, they didn’t have the strength to do so.

Secondly, they both thought that letting Lin Ye take the Sunrise Holy Stele might not necessarily be a bad thing.

However, if they returned like this, it would be hard to avoid punishment.

Their feelings became quite complex, especially after learning about Instructor Ouyang’s past experiences; it was as if something had been shattered, leaving them with an indescribable feeling.

Although they didn’t know whether what Lin Ye said was true or not, this was something that could be easily verified, so was there any need for Lin Ye to deceive them?

Their faith clearly wavered.

“Roar!”

“Ugh!”

At that moment, as the surrounding space was occupied by miasma again, the demons walking in the poisonous mist gradually approached.

If the demons around hadn’t been mostly annihilated by Lin Ye’s Holy Light Feather earlier, the two priests would have faced relentless demon attacks the moment the Holy Stele was taken.

Now, they had ample time to prepare, and the pressure was significantly reduced; the number of demons was evidently much fewer than before Lin Ye arrived.

“Hold on, we must survive and leave here,” said the curly-haired priest, raising his magic staff.

If they died here, wouldn’t that betray Instructor Ouyang’s sacrifice?

Therefore, they had to persevere no matter what!

Although Lin Ye hasn’t stated it, they know that Lin Ye is certainly trying to find a way to conquer this Alternate Space.

If Lin Ye succeeds, they could leave immediately…

If Lin Ye fails, with the abilities of the two of them, it’s almost impossible to find an exit to leave.

Now, apart from believing in Lin Ye, they have no other path to survival.

…

“This is the source of the miasma.”

Lin Ye merged into the miasma, ensuring that the two priests couldn’t see him before quickly flashing to the source of the miasma flow.

This was the source of the Anomalous Spatial Rift; destroying this place would sever the root of the miasma and close the Anomalous Spatial Rift.

Lin Ye’s Demon Eye flickered with a weird red light, his sight piercing through the dense miasma directly to the root.

At the source was a bottomless pit, with miasma continuously flowing from within, spreading all around.

“It really is a Calamity Seed.”

Lin Ye muttered expressionlessly.

A Calamity Seed is an undead embryo that harvests surrounding life continuously to gather hatching energy.

Clearly, the presence of this Alternate Space would lure countless Professionals to die, perpetually nurturing the embryo’s growth.

Once dead in the miasma, one becomes nourishment for the Calamity Seed, hastening its hatching and accumulating more power.

“I’ll add some fuel to assist your hatching!” Lin Ye directly threw the Holy Stele into the pit.

The Holy Stele grew against the wind, burning with blazing white flames, like a meteor crashing into the pit, swiftly incinerating the thick miasma along its path.

The Calamity Seed in the pit evidently sensed the threat as well, immediately reacting, with a huge skeletal claw extending from the pit, attempting to swat away the Holy Stele.

But under the Holy Stele’s suppression, the skeletal claw was smashed into fragments, and the blazing white Holy Flame instantly ignited the ghostly white bones.

A piercing wail echoed from the pit, evidently suffering from the burning pain inflicted by the Holy Flame.

At this moment, the ground shook violently, and something within the pit began to forcefully emerge.

This seed, which had absorbed abundant nourishment here, already possessed the ability to hatch completely.

However, the demon being nurtured inside was greedy for nutrients and reluctant to leave.

But under Lin Ye’s Holy Flame, it was driven to the brink; if it didn’t hatch now, it probably never would.

Soon, Lin Ye saw a misshapen giant’s head attempting to emerge from the pit, which surprised him.

“It’s a Giant Divine Soldier?”

Even under the command of the Celestial Calamity Demon God, such undead demon was a formidable force that polluted its surroundings into a decayed zone suitable only for undead, with its own strong combat abilities.

A complete Giant Divine Soldier could pressure a Peak Demon Monarch, standing shoulder to shoulder with a lower-tier Demon God.

However, the Giant Divine Soldier that Lin Ye saw had only completed its first phase of growth, far from matching a complete form in strength.

Even a Giant Divine Soldier in its first growth phase was no match for ordinary Level 40 Professionals.

“No wonder nobody has been able to conquer this Anomalous Spatial Rift over the years.” Lin Ye muttered.

“The Celestial Calamity Demon God certainly spared no expense, using this as bait.”

Lin Ye chuckled lightly.

But also, apart from this Alternate Space, there was no other suitable place; else why would the Celestial Calamity Demon God let a precious Giant Divine Soldier fall to Lin Ye?

As he saw it, if it could kill Lin Ye, not just one but ten or a hundred Giant Divine Soldiers wouldn’t be an issue!

The key was whether it could really kill Lin Ye!

The Giant Divine Soldier was indeed meant to act as cannon fodder. Originally capable of calling themselves invincible at Level 40, the Giant Divine Soldier had only just peeked from the pit before being relentlessly suppressed by Lin Ye’s Holy Stele!
