Cultivation towards immortality, starting from being a fisherman

Chapter 314: Chapter 198 Cooperation!_2 Chapter 314: Chapter 198 Cooperation!_2 Bishop Jon left the secret chamber with two humanoid puppets in tow.

In the hall, he didn’t reveal that the two behind him were his humanoid puppets,

but informed others that they were Guardian Knights of Holy Lord City.

At the same time, he casually let one of the Guardian Knights show off their astonishing speed and strength,

unveiling their transcendent nature.

This led many cultivators and nuns, clueless of the truth, to look at the silhouettes of the humanoid puppets with curiosity and envy.

Intelligence spies, upon learning this, took a deep breath and quickly sent a report to their superiors.

Holy Lord City, in anticipation of the Phosphor Church’s visit,

seemed to unleash its core strength, even mobilizing the Guardian Knights!

The title “Guardian Knight” gave everyone the impression that they had existed for a very long time.

“Holy Lord City is indeed unfathomable!”

An investigator, upon hearing the news, made a judgment and immediately requested his subordinates to collect information about the Guardian Knights, starting with the patterns on their clothing, hoping to find some clues.

Meanwhile, at the northern airport,

as the Phosphor Church’s private plane gradually descended,

the various personnel and staff gathered in the airport area to welcome it felt a collective sinking of their hearts.

Restlessness began to grow within them,

and they instinctively felt a strong fear of the plane as it landed.

Inside the cabin,

Sect Hierarch Li Yongxiu also sensed this change and looked back at Archbishop Jin Mingjun.

This man, who had undergone a transformation after obtaining Dragon Blood and was saved by a Ghostly God, regaining his normal human form, now had a red-flushed face.

His eyes slit like those of a cold-blooded animal, with scales subtly protruding from his skin.

Traces of Dragon Mighty were seeping out of him, causing an abnormality in the surroundings.

“Apologies, I’ve sensed some kind of threat to my body… hence the slight loss of control.”

Staring at Sect Hierarch Li Yongxiu, Archbishop Jin Mingjun, who had received a Fake Dragon Bloodline, took a few breaths and then gradually reined in the Dragon Mighty.

Subsequently, the two, followed by a large entourage, disembarked the private plane, one after the other, and were greeted by the local Italian personnel.

Then,

Archbishop Jin Mingjun immediately locked eyes with Bishop Jon.

In the blink of an eye, both understood the transcendent identities of the other.

Jin Mingjun cracked a smile, his fangs more reminiscent of an ancient beast than a human, visibly growing larger against all logic.

Quickly, however, a humanoid puppet clad in a monk’s robe, its robust body barely concealed, stepped forward to block Jin Mingjun’s view,

causing a slight hardening in Jin Mingjun’s gaze as he felt a threat emanating from these two artificial beings, stirring restlessness in his body again.

“Cough, cough, cough!”

Perhaps sensing the temperature around them suddenly drop,

Sect Hierarch Li Yongxiu released his handshake with the local dignitary and approached the reception group from Holy Lord City, saying,

“Respected Bishop Jon, even from a great distance, our Phosphor Church has heard of your distinguished name and deeds.”

“I am pleased that you too have been favored by the angels, and chosen.”

“…”

With that, the two exchanged a glance,

yet both firmly believed that their own angel and the other’s angel were not from the same transcendent camp!

“Please rest assured, as I said before coming here,”

“We come for a brighter future.”

“There may be misunderstandings between us, but there is absolutely no animosity.”

Sect Hierarch Li Yongxiu finished speaking and took the initiative to step forward and extend his hand.

Bishop Jon was silent for a moment, signaling the humanoid puppet to step aside, and moved forward to shake hands.

He couldn’t help it; without the revelation from the angel backing him,

Bishop Jon knew deep down that he was the only transcendent being holding up appearances for Holy Lord City, and he felt insecure.

On the side of the Phosphor Church,

after receiving permission for the meeting, Sect Hierarch Li Yongxiu, who had entered the car, heard Jin Mingjun whisper about the threat he felt from the two hulking figures in monk’s robes,

and he too secretly marveled that the Holy Lord City was worthy of its thousand-year heritage.

Look, just as some began to doubt them, they produced a new transcendent being to hold the fort.

Unlike his own people, who were bluffing by the grace of the Ghostly God,

wondering if such a richly endowed opponent would truly hold them in high regard.

This strategic cooperation… could it really be achieved?

Sect Hierarch Li Yongxiu was also somewhat worried at the thought.

Yet he could only think of the Ghostly God’s command as absolute.

He had no choice but to follow this path, only hoping that the Ghostly God indeed possessed mana that reached the heavens and had planned everything in advance!

Neither side slept that night.

However, while Bishop Jon was quietly discussing with the subordinate,

suddenly the secret chamber was filled with a gentle white light.

A voice, neither clearly male nor female, appeared directly in the ears of Bishop Jon and the subordinate.

Immediately, the two stood and bowed, closing their eyes to listen quietly.

Minutes later,

Bishop Jon and the subordinate slowly opened their eyes.

Then, Bishop Jon noticed the subordinate’s complexion had become much rosier.

“Subordinate… have you received a blessing?”

“Yes, the Angel believes that the sheep of the Mortal World still need this Shepherd to exert himself…”

The subordinate’s tone was tinged with a hint of joy.

Although he had long ago become indifferent to life and death,

suddenly finding himself somewhat healthier and more vibrant naturally made him happy.

Especially since he felt that these benefits didn’t require him to do anything against his conscience in exchange.

Bishop Jon was also pleased that his mentor and close friend, the subordinate, had received a blessing.

Then they began to discuss the revelation left by the Angel after its descent.

According to the Angel’s revelation,

the entire world is now in some kind of danger.

This coincided with the intelligence they had gathered from Sakura Country and Korea.

However, as a distinguished place, Holy Lord City must do something to try to lessen the harm these dangers could cause to innocent people when they occur.

Therefore, even cooperation with non-Holy Lord organizations was within the realm of acceptability.

And this time, they had chosen to partner with the Phosphor Church, which had other transcendent forces behind it.

And this was only the beginning.

It was also a bold trial for both sides.

The Angel hoped that Bishop Jon and his associates would not waste this opportunity,

and to accomplish the cooperative mission well!

In Bishop Jon’s view, the message translated to something more common: in preparation for the greater dangers, these true transcendent powers have started cooperating, so the people of the Mortal World should try to see if they too can join forces to fight against the upcoming threats.

Gathering together for warmth is a natural instinct.

On this, Bishop Jon only needed to look at the subordinate to know he wouldn’t object.

After all, the subordinate’s measures since his appearance had shown that he was not one of those rigid antiques.

And the mere fact that the subordinate could make an appearance was indicative of the attitude of most bishops of Holy Lord City.

Bishop Jon felt that with both he and the subordinate in support,

they should be able to seize this opportunity for cooperation.

Thus, in the various reports of the next day,

people from all regions who retained the habit of watching the news immediately discovered the grand announcement from Holy Lord City to cooperate with the Phosphor Church.

They also learned that both parties were planning to choose a project location near a conveniently accessible port in the north.

They would construct a statue of a Six-winged Archangel that stood at least a hundred meters tall at that place.

It was reported that the stone and earth used for the statue would be special products supplied by Korea and Holy Lord City,

and would be mixed with many ancient items to increase its sanctity.

Furthermore, for a period after the statue is completed,

the area will become a venue open to all.

People from both sides will come to manage and organize the viewing crowds in an orderly fashion.

Su Ping was not idle either.

He planned this cooperation to shape the Protecting Tao Divine Weapon.

He prepared to have the forces of both factions serve him, starting with a grand Formation base and the prototype of the Incense Fire Puppet.

This way, using his now fully mastered knowledge of Second Tier Arrays and the Blood God Sect’s secret technique to set things up,

it would undoubtedly be much simpler and save time and effort.

By that time,

the Formation will assist, and once the Six-winged Archangel Puppet’s body receives the Heavenly Gang Pearl, it will collect the myriad thoughts left by the spectators in a gradual accumulation.

In the meantime, Kamo Junichiro’s Netherworld Ghost Body will come to help refine the random thoughts.

Su Ping believed that even if the result of his first creation of a Protecting Tao Divine Weapon failed to meet expectations,

he could learn from the experience and do even better next time!
