Holy Radiance Secret Vault

Fifth basement of the Holy Radiance Dome Temple

Archbishop Augustine came to the obsidian niche and gently touched the core mural of the divinity with his scepter. The silver patterns on the mural quickly spread from the point of contact to the whole surface, causing the stone wall to separate sideways, revealing a spiral staircase leading downwards.

Then, he turned to Ye Mingqiu, slightly bowed his head, and said: ”Respected Lord of the Fierce Sun, each step of the spiral staircase has unique starlight runes. Unauthorized entry can trigger an alarm. Please allow me to grant you enchantment authorization.”

”Hmm.”

Ye Mingqiu replied casually, not fearing any trickery from the other, for his abnormal status resistance and control effect resistance were exceptionally high, making him unconcerned in his actions.

With low resistance, indeed, there is a need to outsmart the enemy, otherwise trouble could arise. But when resistance is as high as Ye Mingqiu’s, worrying during action would make one seem somewhat foolish.

Isn’t it pointless to have such high resistance and still be so concerned?

Immediately, Archbishop Augustine lightly tapped Ye Mingqiu with his scepter. Magic patterns appeared at Ye Mingqiu’s feet and penetrated his body.

[Notice: You have received Archbishop Augustine’s vault entry approval]

No problem

Yet, Ye Mingqiu’s expression subtly changed; he could feel that the archbishop used a distinctly unique way of applying magic, different from the methods he had learned before.

This difference was primarily systematic, which was quite normal in a complex and diverse world.

But Ye Mingqiu, being a mage, certainly wanted to study this in detail, so he directly said:

”I want to learn your casting techniques.”

”Oh? You are interested in the magic of mortals?”

The archbishop asked curiously.

He was a smart man and also a powerful figure in the faith branch of the magic system. Although his power source was faith, his cultivation system was magic-based, making it clear that the ”Lord of the Fierce Sun” did not lack power but was merely curious.

”Yes, I’m interested.”

”No problem.”

Smiling, the archbishop continued to descend, saying: ”Here, in the Holy Radiance Secret Vault, is the core storehouse of the church’s wealth and forbidden items. Only the archbishop and seven ’Silent Council’ envoys may enter...”

....

Ye Mingqiu listened to the introduction, proceeding and crossing three different levels of protection, finally reaching the vault.

The main hall of the vault was circular, its walls made of obsidian and marrow gold mixed cast, with the entire ”Starlight Bible” text engraved. The text grooves filled with luminous moss resembled a flowing star river. The floor was paved with hexagonal starlight stone tiles, each preserving the sound waves of believers’ prayers, producing ethereal sacred songs when stepped upon.

The central altar was splendid, surrounded by seven transparent crystal coffins, within which seven elders in archbishop robes lay peacefully, with some life remaining.

This is a means of preserving combat power

Almost instantly, Ye Mingqiu realized that these seven archbishops were formidable figures of the past, with their bodies specially treated to emerge from the crystal coffins at crucial moments, unleashing astonishing power, which was part of the Starlight Church’s foundation.

He quietly engaged his perception

[Archbishop-Heidi (Level 6 Dominator)]

[Tier: Tier Two]

[Life: 40000]

[Four-dimensional Attributes: Power: 630, Agility: 540, Constitution: 880, Spirit: 1480]

[Archbishop-Kant (Level 4 Dominator)]

....

The seven preserved archbishops were Level 4-6 Over-Specification Dominators, though their Strength and Agility Body attributes were lowered due to special treatment and life limits were not high, yet being magic system strongmen, their powerful spirit was sufficient to exert considerable combat force.

If nothing unexpected happens, when Augustine’s life runs out, he would become the eighth archbishop here, sacrificing himself at critical moments to contribute his strength to the church.

”Venerable Sun God, please follow me this way. Here are the high-quality starlight stones you need.”

The archbishop gestured invitingly.

”Hmm.”

Ye Mingqiu looked in the direction guided by the archbishop, where various high-quality rare minerals were displayed on a gilded shelf on the left side of the room, including high-quality starlight stones, fragments of marrow gold, void red crystals, and other world-origin minerals. The self-emitting light of the minerals lit up the inside of the gilded shelf, reflecting light blue and crimson hues.

Clearly, the gilded shelf displayed only the top-tier native minerals, and even within the same mineral category, the value difference between high-quality and low-quality minerals was substantial.

Top-quality starlight stones are almost impossible to obtain through conventional means, while ordinary quality starlight stones can be easily purchased.

Sinuous blood spear slowly flowed from Ye Mingqiu’s sleeves, its tip seemingly sniffing the minerals.

Normally, the blood spear was hard and possessed extremely high strength, but this didn’t mean it could only maintain this state. Especially after advancing to pseudo-divine artifact, its system transformation capacity was further enhanced, allowing free conversion between liquid and solid states.

”Can it directly absorb?”

Ye Mingqiu politely asked.

”Of course.”

The archbishop replied with a smile, watching the vivid blood spear, feeling this companion divine artifact was quite extraordinary, much more spirited than any weapon he had ever seen before, practically like a child’s weapon.

Is this the companion divine artifact?
