Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao

Chapter 3875: Lightning High Priest

Over a hundred wild dogs rushed forwards, all of them baring their teeth, drooling, appearing very malevolent.

Ling Han smiled faintly, and an aura swept out. Pa, pa, pa! Over a hundred wild dogs all collapsed.

What, it was settled?

The people on the wall all looked stunned, finding it hard to believe.

This was too shocking. The wild dogs that were like demons in their eyes actually collapsed all at once.

What had happened?

They looked at Ling Han. Though they did not know exactly what had happened, no matter how they thought about it, it must be related to this man.

Someone mustered up the courage to come out, and circled around the herd of wild dogs. Then, they became even more stunned. “They’re all dead,” he said.

It wasn’t long before the villagers all rushed over and surrounded Ling Han. It was as if they were looking at a god. “Lord!” These villagers all fell to their knees, “How could it be that you are the Priest from Karish?”

What the hell?

Ling Han pretended to be profound. With a wave of his hand, he led the way into the village.

Everyone hurriedly followed, falling behind by three to four positions, appearing to be extremely reverent.

After entering the village, Ling Han discovered that there was a flight of steps on the inside of the wall. These people were standing on the steps just now.

However, everything was too primitive. Previously, the wild dogs were not vicious beasts, but rather wild beasts that could not be any more ordinary. Furthermore, not one of the villagers here was a cultivator, so they could not even defeat ordinary wild dogs.

Ling Han began to probe for information, and soon found out what he needed to know.

The villagers here had lived here for generations, and their main livelihood was hunting and rearing livestock, and their greatest enemy was the carnivores on the grassland.

There were many other villages like theirs on this large grassy plain, but there were territories demarcated among them. Unless they encountered an especially great calamity, they would not enter into each other’s territory.

Every once in a while, they would go to Karish to trade for some salt and medicine.

Karish, a town. There was a powerful Priest there, who could stimulate the lightning in the skies to execute evil people. It was also because of this that Karish had also developed from a small village into a small town, a trading platform for exchanging resources for various villages. It was also the Holy Land in the hearts of all the villagers.

To the villagers, if they could migrate to Karish, they would not have to live in fear every day, because with a large-scale invasion of wild beasts, it was possible that their homes would be gone.

A thought suddenly flashed in Ling Han’s head. To stimulate the lightning in the skies to kill? Was that a cultivator?

After he understood the situation in more detail, he set out towards Karish.

In a mere two hours, Ling Han arrived at the Holy Land in the hearts of the people of this grassy plain.

The structures were built next to the water, forming a small town. It was really not very big, and looked to contain only a few hundred households.

However, compared to the village, this place could already be considered a large place. Ling Han had already changed into the attire of a villager from the plains. He quietly blended in, planning to first test out the strength of that High Priest, not wanting to alert him.

That high priest was respectfully addressed as the Lightning High Priest. His real name could not be distinguished. It had been almost twenty years since he had become the High Priest, and he was living in the most luxurious manor in the town.

Of course, this mansion was only in relative terms. In this place, it could be called a mansion, but in the outside world, it could only be considered ordinary.

He released his divine sense and scanned the mansion.

Yi, he did not discover any cultivators. Everyone’s life force was very weak, as if they were ordinary people.

Could it be that the High Priest was not here?

Or could it be that the other was too strong, that he could not sense him at all?

Ling Han thought for a moment, then decided to be more cautious. He took out the Void Beast hide and put it on, concealing his figure. Then, he snuck into the mansion.

He soon discovered a middle-aged man who was almost fifty years old. He had a big belly, and he was dressed in colorful clothes, appearing extremely exaggerated.

In the manor, everyone was incredibly respectful towards this middle-aged man. In fact, they were extremely reverent towards him.

Yi, could it be that he was the Lightning High Priest?

Ling Han activated his eye technique to take a closer look. This was clearly a mortal.

How could a mortal stimulate lightning to kill?

Ling Han put away the Void Beast hide, and strode towards the middle-aged man. “Who are you?” “How did you get in?”

There were many servants here, and when they saw Ling Han suddenly appear, they were all shocked, and began to question him. However, though they were shocked, not one of them was afraid.

That was because their Master was the Lightning High Priest, and was the representative of the gods in this world. “So you are the Lightning High Priest?” Ling Han looked at the middle-aged man. “Since you know who I am, hurry up and kneel!” the middle-aged man shouted, a hint of displeasure on his face.

Yi, this guy was really the Lightning High Priest?

Ling Han smiled faintly, “What right does a mere mortal have to be called an envoy of gods?”

The middle-aged man was furious, and pointed a finger at Ling Han. Zi, instantly, a bolt of lightning shot out, like a divine light, blasting towards Ling Han.

Interesting.

Ling Han stretched out a hand to grab it, and this bolt of lightning fell into his hand. After flickering for a while, it completely lost its lustre.

Pu!

The middle-aged man looked as if he had seen a ghost. How was this possible?

The surefire lightning was actually grabbed in someone’s hand, and the other party was completely unscathed!

Ling Han was also curious, and said, “You’re only a mortal, yet you’re able to unleash Cauldron Forging Tier-level lightning energy. It’s clear that you possess a precious tool. However, what kind of Spirit Tool can actually be controlled by a mortal?”

The middle-aged man didn’t completely understand Ling Han’s words, but he knew what he meant. Ling Han had seen through him.

He couldn’t help but touch the ring on his finger, then pointed at Ling Han, “Those who disrespect the gods, I shall sentence you to extreme punishment!”

Zi, another bolt of lightning struck over.

Ling Han casually grabbed it, and extinguished the lightning again.

He strode forward, closing in on the middle-aged man.

This time, to say nothing of the middle-aged man, all the servants were also shocked beyond belief.

Was this a demon that walked on the mortal plane? Otherwise, how could it be that even the envoy of the gods and the Lightning High Priest could do nothing against him?

The middle-aged man pointed repeatedly at Ling Han. One after another, bolts of lightning shot out, but their might was getting weaker and weaker.

Ling Han walked over and grabbed the middle-aged man in a single move. Then, he removed the ring.

However, this ring was very ordinary.

With a thought from Ling Han, he opened the ornamental bead on the ring, and saw that there was a stone the size of a grain of rice inside. It was completely dark blue in colour, and was entwined with the light of lightning.

Zi, the power of lightning struck over, causing Ling Han’s palm to go numb. He almost couldn’t hold this small rock.

However, after he activated the Starlight Screen, the power of lightning couldn’t affect him anymore.

It was this thing that allowed the middle-aged man to unleash the power of lightning.

Ling Han smiled faintly, and said, “Come, explain this to me.”
