Chapter 2787: Protective Net

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Rune!

Fang Heng instantly realized the key to the problem.

That’s right!

The rune had appeared as a result of the protective net’s influence!

Fang Heng felt like he had found the breakthrough, his excitement growing.

Previously, he had tried various methods to influence the orb, but most of his efforts couldn’t even penetrate the external power field surrounding the orb. Even if some force did penetrate and reach the orb, it had no effect.

...

So the target had been wrong.

The real control didn’t need to be applied to the orb itself, but rather to the protective shield around it.

The Creator had used the external metallic layer and special imprint to manipulate the orb!

It had to be this way!

Fang Heng calmed himself down, closing his eyes once more as he searched his memories, focusing on the inscriptions he had seen on the orb in the illusion during his time in the Holy Realm.

He committed every detail of the inscription to memory.

Whoosh!

Fang Heng opened his eyes again.

He had remembered.

It was time to try!

There was at least a 50% chance of success!

Fang Heng’s eyes lit up with a sharp gleam as he took a deep breath. Despite the burning sensation from the holy power, he pushed through the pain and walked forward, slowly extending his hand toward the orb.

He gathered all his mental strength.

It seemed as though the orb and its protective shield remained exactly where they were, with no visible reaction.

But Fang Heng felt a surge of joy in his heart.

He could sense it.

When he had attempted to manipulate the orb and protective net using his psychic power, there had indeed been a response. It wasn’t a complete lack of reaction—it was the presence of a counteracting force.

The sacred power could influence the protective shield!

Without hesitation, Fang Heng pushed the sacred power to its limit!

The Book of Oaths levitated in front of him.

Holy power gathered in tiny, glittering points.

As the holy power passed through the protective layer, a dark glow slowly emerged at the center of the God-given Orb. A faint and hidden rune imprint appeared, shimmering in and out of visibility.

It wasn’t enough!

There was still a long way to go!

Compared to the already God-level necromancy, Fang Heng’s sacred study level was simply insufficient. Even though his mental strength was abundant, he still couldn’t get the orb to move.

What to do?!

Suddenly, Fang Heng had an idea.

In that instant, he thought of Su Ziyue.

The power of faith!

Wasn’t Su Ziyue always shouting about finding ways to weaken the Holy Court’s power of faith?

Maybe he could use the power of faith!

In theory, if there was enough power of faith and it was consumed recklessly without considering the cost, it could elevate personal strength hundreds or even thousands of times in a very short period!

The Holy Court in the Holy Realm had been able to resist Su Ziyue up until now solely due to the power of faith accumulated over tens of thousands of years within the Central God Pillar.

If he could somehow temporarily borrow the Holy Court’s power of faith…

Fang Heng’s eyes narrowed.

The power of faith should be stored in the Starry Temple.

“Go!”

To the Starry Temple.

Now was the best time for him to act!

Without further hesitation, Fang Heng began to slowly retreat, heading back the same way he came, walking toward the direction of the Creation Temple’s outer perimeter.

Along the way, the trial participants who were cultivating inside the Creation Temple cast strange glances at Fang Heng.

This was strange.

What was going on with this guy?

He rushed in here, his strength terrifying, even reaching the upper levels. But after that, he didn’t seem to be cultivating at all, and now he’s hurrying out again.

…

Outside the Creation Temple, in the square.

Army Commander Hain and the members of the God’s Punishment Knight Legion stood quietly, waiting.

“Great Sage.”

When they saw Fang Heng walk out of the Creation Temple, the knights immediately bowed in respect.

“No need for such formalities,” Fang Heng waved his hand, hastily descending the steps outside the Creation Temple. “Let’s go! Take me to the Starry Temple immediately.”

Noticing Fang Heng’s urgency, Hain quickly led the way and cautiously asked, “Great Sage, is something wrong?”

“Yes, I need to borrow the power of faith from the Starry Temple.”

Hain’s eyes narrowed in thought.

“Great Sage, right now the Holy Realm is facing a crisis. The other three Great Sages are guarding the Starry Temple closely. They may not be willing to easily lend us the power of faith.”

“Even so, we must try. I need enough power of faith to assist the God King in dealing with the demons. The Starry Temple is the only place that can provide a large amount of faith power in such a short time.”

“I understand.”

Hain didn’t question Fang Heng’s reasoning. He quickened his pace and led him toward the Starry Temple.

Coincidentally, the Starry Temple was also located on the eastern side of the central God Pillar, not too far from the Creation Temple.

After about ten minutes, Hain and Fang Heng arrived at the square outside the Starry Temple.

A large number of Holy Court guards were stationed around the perimeter of the square.

Upon seeing the God’s Punishment Knight Legion approaching swiftly, the guards’ faces grew solemn.

The commander of the Starry Temple guards, Moreno, stepped forward from the crowd, his gaze falling on Hain, the Army Commander.

Hain was well-known in the Holy Realm.

Moreno naturally recognized him, but he found it strange.

Hain had always been stationed at the Demon Suppressing Temple on the Sub-God Pillar, rarely leaving. Why was he suddenly bringing a group here?

Hain stepped forward and stopped in front of the Starry Temple’s guards.

“Moreno, this is Fang Bai, the newly appointed Great Sage. The situation is urgent, and we need to enter the Starry Temple immediately.”

The guards glanced at Fang Heng.

They had just heard about the new Great Sage, but they hadn’t expected him to be so young.

With the status of a Great Sage, no one would stop him from entering the Starry Temple.

“I hadn’t heard of any Great Sage coming to the temple,” Moreno said, his voice calm.

Moreno and Hain were both from the Holy Court’s Holy Paladin faction, so if they could make things easier, they wouldn’t make it difficult.

Moreno’s gaze lingered on Fang Heng for a moment, then he signaled the guards to step aside and motioned with his hand, “It seems you have important business. Please, go ahead.”

As Hain passed by, Moreno quietly reminded him, “The Starry Temple is currently guarded by High Priestess Stella and her fellow High Priestesses.”

“Thank you,” Hain nodded.

There was some tension between the priestly and commanding factions, but it wasn’t open conflict, just occasional minor obstacles.

Moreno’s reminder was meant to be cautious.

But with the entire Holy Realm facing a crisis, it was unlikely that the priests would make any trouble at this time.

Fang Heng didn’t know about the underlying tensions. Worried that Su Ziyue might not be able to hold off the Holy Court forces, he hurriedly followed Hain and the knights into the Starry Temple, preparing to obtain the Holy Realm orb as quickly as possible.

Inside the Starry Temple, billions of stars swirled around.

Fang Heng gazed at the scene, awe and shock flickering in his eyes.

Each of the flowing sacred stars contained immense power of faith.

The Holy Court had accumulated faith in the Holy Realm for years, and their power was evident.

High Priestess Stella and the other four priests sat in the center of the great hall, maintaining the temple’s operations. Around the walls of the hall, elite priests assisted them in their work.

“Greetings, High Priestess Stella.”

Hain stopped outside the swirling field of faith stars and nodded toward the High Priestesses, “This is Fang Bai, the newly appointed Great Sage.”
