Wizard starting from shoeing donkeys

In the dilapidated hall of the Mother Tree faith's temple.

Since Reine's combat prowess was evident to all when he had slain the Evil Spirit Knight earlier,

even though the two temple knights did not quite believe what Reine had said, they also did not openly question him.

It was only their stunned body language that seemed to say, "Even though Lord Rein, you're very strong, don't talk nonsense!"

At the same time, Rudolf, the head of the church, also held some doubts about Rein's warning.

After all, the scroll he had just torn open contained the high-level Divine Art, "Sword of Judgment."

Others might not be aware of the power of this Divine Art, but as a professional member of the church, he was all too aware of its might.

Once it hit, it not only caused a gigantic piercing injury in an instant to the enemy, but also, the surging energy swirling around the "Sword of Judgment" would linger, inflicting continuous damage to the wound.

Put simply, if not killed by the initial strike, the enemy would die from the continuous loss of blood!

But the next second, Rudolf's mouth was agape with horror! The words of warning had only reached his throat when it was already too late...

The two temple knights were struck by the Flesh Forest's tail, which lashed out like a giant python, sending them flying through the air like golf balls.

With a "snap," both were knocked more than ten meters into the air!

In midair, the sound of bones breaking and tendons snapping could still be heard.

Reine sighed deeply in his heart!

Alas!

A winning situation had been forcefully turned into a losing one!

Furthermore, those two were probably not dead but crippled! No longer to be counted on...

After all that, in the end, he was left alone in this melee, a "lone warrior" in close combat!

As for Lagaray?

Not having stepped into the Transcendent realm, she probably found even dealing with the Flesh Forest's roots difficult.

"Divine Art: Holy Force Levitation!"

"Divine Art: Radiant Healing!"

Rudolf, with a book in hand, directed two life-saving Divine Arts towards the midair temple knights with utmost speed.

Rudolf cast two successive Divine Arts, exhausting the last of his spiritual power.

Although the high-level Divine Art, "Sword of Judgment," was immensely powerful, it had drained a great deal of Rudolf's spiritual power. Even as a head of the church, he was struggling to endure.

With the help of "Holy Force Levitation," the two temple knights floated down to the ground as lightly as feathers.

Rudolf and Lagaray hurried forward to assess the knights' injuries.

Unfortunately, the weaker of the two temple knights had already been beyond saving in midair, his organs and bones crushed to a pulp by the Flesh Forest's blow. Enjoy new stories from empire

The other, stronger temple knight had just barely survived, and with the aid of the Divine Art "Radiant Healing," was desperately trying to heal his ravaged organs, but he was completely incapacitated for the moment.

So, within a matter of seconds, the tide had turned.

Rudolf and Lagaray raised their heads to look at Reine, who was not far to their side.

It seemed that Rein was the only one left who could interfere with the Flesh Forest...

Faced with the gradually healing Flesh Forest, Rein knew he could not wait any longer; he had to take the initiative to attack.

After all, while the Flesh Forest was still heavily wounded at the moment, he had to inflict sustained and sufficient damage.

Only in this way could he possibly interrupt its self-healing, and subsequently find a vulnerability and kill it.

"Limit Break!"

Rein, brandishing the Glimmering Greatsword, charged headlong towards the Flesh Forest's wildly flying roots without a second thought.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Upon engaging, Rein found that the Flesh Forest was indeed very strong, no, super strong!

He realized that even in its injured state, its root attacks were heavy and forceful, and the variously-sized flesh roots were incredibly tough.

Each slash Rein made felt like cutting into a rubber tire, very difficult to sever.

Thankfully, his Glimmering Greatsword had been forged with star metal and Glowstone, or else even his "Limit Break" might not have been enough to cut through these roots.

One could imagine that if the Flesh Forest had not been hurt and was in its prime state, the number of roots as well as their offensive and defensive power would likely ascend to another level.

If that were the case, Rein would have faced much more difficulty than he was facing now!

Confronting such a formidable enemy, Rein activated his "Limit Break" right away, boosting all three of his attributes by more than sixty percent.

His agility, in particular, increased substantially from 16 points to 26 points, naturally leading to a drastic increase in his movement speed. It was this incredible speed that allowed Rein to remain unyielding amidst the perilous battle conditions.

At this moment, the battle scene in the great hall was Rein moving quickly without a pause, each step an act of slicing or dodging, in response to the hundreds of flesh roots encircling him.

The roots varied in size and speed, with a multitude of attack methods: Some stabbed with sharp tips, some swept across, and others lashed downwards, the diversity was endless.

Luckily, Rein's Giant Bear Sword Technique had already reached level 6!

Ever since reaching level 6, Rein had felt that his Giant Bear Sword Technique had entered a new major realm. According to Hamilton, that was the mastery level.
