Chapter 357 - Spoils: Holy Fire Mark

Chapter 357: Spoils: Holy Fire Mark

“This talent…”

Ji Ye’s face was briefly frozen.

The talent was definitely a rather powerful one. It seemed even more awesome than the Superior King’s Soul, which the captain of the Ghostship had dropped earlier!

After all, the King’s Soul talent could only work on souls after they died, whereas the Cult Leader talent could deal with the living.

But it also meant that this talent might cause problems if it fell into the hands of the evil people.

Ji Ye vividly remembered what happened with Xu Xue.

Unless it was necessary for him to use the talent, he would rather keep it in the treasury underneath the core of providence or use it as the raw material in one of his fusions.

Ji Ye put the ball of light back and then looked at the second ball of light that had emerged from Fang La’s body.

This ball of light had silver light mixed in with the white light, indicating that it was a “Special” item.

[Holy Fire Mark]

[Level: Special]

[Rarity: Superior (Rare)]

[Description: It’s also known as the Mark of Light. It’s said to have been transformed from the Children of Light who sacrificed themselves. Those who are acknowledged by the Mark can read the Scripture of Holy Fire and make use of the power of the Holy Fire.]

What floated right in the middle of the ball of light was the ivory fire at the center of Fang La’s eyebrows.

“The Holy Fire Mark?”

The silver Alpha Wolf’s Mark on Ji Ye’s head flashed.

Speaking of which, it had been a long time since he used the Totem Wolf Skin.

It was mostly because he had decided to focus on martial arts and Daoist techniques instead of picking up an assortment of techniques.

So, he had slowed down the training on his soul. At this moment, Ji Ye’s soul power was still Extraordinary Rank-7. The Soul Alpha Wolf he summoned, just like the Jade Dragon Sword, couldn’t keep up with his strength anymore.

Also, to be honest, because the Alpha Wolf’s Mark inside the Totem Wolf Skin had been fused by him, the combat ability of the Soul Alpha Wolf that the equipment could project was limited to the Extraordinary level. It didn’t have much potential. Also, the soul power that he acquired recently had all been filled in the Soul Cutter.

Therefore, the Special item that really originated from the Twin Dragon Mount fort had been left unused for a long time.

The Holy Fire Mark had similar functions to the Alpha Wolf’s Mark.

Firstly, it could make the Children of Light acknowledge his identity so that he could use the power of the Holy Fire.

Secondly, it allowed him to comprehend the scripture on the twelve pillars.

The scripture that filled the twelve black fiery pillars was sort of an encrypted language.

Every pillar stood for a technique or ultimate martial art of the Church of Light, including the Universal Shifting that Fang La used earlier and the Holy Fire that could burn the enemy remotely!

After realizing that, Ji Ye felt lucky that he didn’t use the Dragon-Subduing Strike with the tough True Qi. Otherwise, the pillars could have been destroyed and he would have missed the Universal Shifting that he was very interested in.

Of course, Ji Ye wouldn’t accept the Holy Fire Mark recklessly even though he was attracted to the twelve ultimate techniques.

Firstly, he didn’t know whether or not the Holy Fire Mark would conflict with the Alpha Wolf’s Mark.

Secondly, the Holy Fire Mark was transformed by the so-called Children of Light. If there were Children of Light, there was naturally a Father of Light, who was exactly the “Lord of Light” worshiped by the Church of Light.

The Lord of Light was actually not as unremarkable as Ji Ye had derided him to be earlier.

Actually, the Lord of Light had been influential in ancient Chidragon for a thousand years!

After they chose Fang La as their first target, Elder Meng introduced the Church of Light to everybody on the Twin Dragon Island.

The Church of Light was originally known as the Manichean Church. Its founder claimed to be the successor of Sakyamuni, Zoroaster, and Jesus and melted theories about “light”, “fire”, and “paradise” in the original doctrines.

After it was spread to Chidragon from Persia, some Daoist principles were fused in the religion too.

That was evident from the fact that Fang La had both Deng Yuanjue and Bao Daoyi as his National Advisors.

Also, because the Church of Light advocated that “darkness is about to be over and light is coming”, its believers were often avid rebels. After the Northern Song Dynasty, every rebellion in history had the signs of the Church of Light behind it.

So, it was possible that the Lord of Light manifested on the Land of Inheritance too!

According to the theories of the Church of Light, the Children of Light had melted into the bodies of human beings to expel the darkness in their blood.

So, after he took in the Holy Fire Mark, he might be somehow connected to the Lord of Light and catch his attention. The guy might even attack him.

Speaking of which, it was undoubtedly another story where the Twin Dragon Island killed a minor monster only to discover that it had a powerful background.

Fortunately, after the founder of the Ming Dynasty acceded to the throne with the help of the Church of Light, he suppressed it in the harshest way, and by Qing Dynasty, the power of the Church of Light had already declined.

Therefore, the Lord of Light was not very well-known in modern society. Even the Church of Light was only famous because of Jin Yong’s wuxia novels.

According to the rules on the Land of Inheritance, it was reasonable to infer that even if this Lord of Light was not just a legend but a god, he couldn’t have been very strong.

Besides, by the time the Lord of Light really manifested on the Land of Inheritance, it was possible that the Twin Dragon Island would have been qualified to welcome god-level heroes.

So, when the Lord of Light gloomily condensed Holy Fire that covered a radius of ten thousand kilometers and came to the Twin Dragon Island to punish them, he might find a bunch of weird people awaiting him on the Twin Dragon Island, including a monkey who was holding a peach in one of his furry hands and a golden bar that could be lengthened or shortened freely at will[1], a bald man who wore tight yellow clothes and a white cloak and who was waving his fist fighting a humming mosquito[2], and a giant who looked like a huge purple potato and who wore a massive glove that had six gems of different colors embedded in it[3].

At that time, the Lord of Light could probably only sweat and ask in a shivering voice, “Sorry to trouble you, I’m only here to ask you if you need me to give you any fire…”

While imagining the hilarious scene in his head, Ji Ye put the Holy Fire Mark back too.

It would take some time for the Fusion talent to cool down. Besides, he didn’t have to fuse them immediately after it cooled down.

The twelve pillars in the cavern weren’t going anywhere anyway.

Apart from the twelve pillars, the altar and the white statue also had stats.

[Holy Fire Altar (Statue of the Lord of Light)]

[Level: Special]

[Rarity: Superior]

[Description: It’s an altar to pay tribute to the Lord of Light. It can absorb all kinds of power nearby as well as the power of faith from believers and transform it into Holy Fire to strengthen anyone!]

[Note: The strengthening comes with a price.]
