Xinyue had a sneer on her lips, and her eyes were full of arrogance and coldness.
As the first apostle of the Moon God, she once managed tens of millions of believers. Although the Moon God was assassinated, the Moon God Cult also fell apart.
However, she still had 10,000 to 20,000 core believers under her command, and the magic bestowed by the Moon Goddess still retained a small amount of its power.
By directly sacrificing the blood of hundreds of core believers just now, Xinyue cast the divine spell Blood Moon Cloak.
This magic was condensed through the souls of believers. The more believers who were sacrificed, the stronger the power. Combined with the souls of believers accumulated before, the Blood Moon Cloak that Xinyue cast this time was already very powerful.
The most powerful aspect of the Blood Moon Cloak is that it can transcend the laws of physics and is immune to attacks from most modern technological weapons.
The biggest threat was the mind blocker, so she first controlled the bison and directly destroyed the mind blocker with physical means.
The only thing that surprised Xinyue was that the opponent actually held up after she fired a mental piercing arrow just now.
That's it. A small field worker has the right to yell at her. He even asked her to turn around immediately. It's really ignorant and ridiculous to say such things!
Xinyue did not waste time in refutation. While the other party was speaking, she was already silently reciting the Blood Moon Soul-Slaying Curse.
The Blood Moon Cloak, transformed from the blood sacrifices of many believers, can only last for thirty minutes at most. We must use this time to escape from danger as soon as possible. The Blood Moon Soul-Slaying Curse, which is blessed by the Blood Moon Cloak, is aimed directly at the opponent's soul.
No matter how advanced the opponent's equipment is, it cannot resist this attack from the soul level.
After Apostle Xinyue silently recited the spell, the red and black cloak wrapped around her fluttered up and turned into a red and black full moon behind her.
In Gao Xuan's eyes, the red and black full moon was actually composed of countless fine runes.
This kind of divine blessing is essentially the same as the Xuanming Jue, which is that there is a rune seed in the sea of consciousness.
Xinyue's rune seed was, of course, given by the evil god. With Xinyue's level of practice, even if she had a deep understanding of divine arts, it was actually just at the application level. She couldn't possibly understand the deep rune mysteries of divine arts.
To put it simply, Xinyue's use of divine arts was nothing more than using this program, and she had extremely high authority. However, she did not understand the structure of divine arts itself.
Gao Xuan's practice of the Xuanming Jue gave him a unique and profound understanding of the cultivation system of the new era.
As soon as he saw the changes in the magic of Xinyue on the opposite side, he knew the general changes of this magic.
The full moon transformed from the blood moon cloak has hundreds of thousands of runes, most of which Gao Xuan has never seen. Judging from this trend, the evil gods of the new era are also keeping up with the times and have learned a lot from the human cultivation system.
Compared to the evil god a thousand years ago, the Moon God's magic is more complex and sophisticated, and the efficiency of converting soul power is also higher.
It is a divine art used by an apostle, and its energy changes are all worth seeking out.
However, the power of these apostles comes entirely from the gods. They know the divine arts but not the reasons. Although the power of the souls of many believers is very strong, they cannot really use this power at will.
In such a short time, Gao Xuan could not grasp all the changes of the opponent's magic, but it was enough for him to see through several important nodes of the magic.
Xinyue pointed her finger at Gao Xuan and activated the Blood Moon Soul-Slaying Curse.
Gao Xuan also activated the Mysterious Divine Seal at the same time. This seal originated from the Mysterious Dark Art and directly targeted the soul level.
With his current cultivation, the power of the Mysterious God Seal would not be too strong. For a master like Xinyue, the Mysterious God Seal could only interfere with the opponent's soul.
Xin Yue now has a blood moon cloak, which gathers the soul power of all believers and is very powerful at the spiritual level.
The power of the Mysterious Divine Seal is actually unable to penetrate the Blood Moon Cloak, and poses almost no threat to the Crescent Moon.
However, Gao Xuan activated the Xuanshen Seal and it landed accurately on a node of the Blood Moon Cloak.
The Blood Moon Cloak itself is a very sophisticated rune structure that gathers the power of everyone's soul, making it extremely powerful. The new moon that triggered the Blood Moon Cloak was completely unaware that the Blood Moon Cloak would have weaknesses.
Just when she was using all her strength to activate the Blood Moon Soul-Slaying Curse, the Blood Moon Cloak suddenly got stuck.
The operation of the divine art was extremely precise. Suddenly, something went wrong with the Blood Moon Cloak, and the Blood Moon Soul-Beheading Curse could not be cast.
Then, the Blood Moon Soul-Slaying Curse exploded within the Crescent Moon's soul.
Normally, even if the spell failed and exploded, Xinyue could barely control it and would not suffer much damage. However, this time the Soul-Severing Curse was also blessed by the Blood Moon Cloak, so the power was completely on a different level.
Xinyue's soul was like being slashed by a knife, and her soul almost shattered on the spot. This severe blow to her soul level made her lose all sense of the outside world in an instant.
Xinyue stood there, a red and black full moon appearing in the depths of her eyes.
Gao Xuan had seized the opportunity and raised his heavy sniper rifle. The electromagnetically propelled bullet cut through the air at high speed and directly shattered Xinyue's beautiful face.
Xinyue's headless body stood there motionless. After more than ten seconds, it shook and fell to the ground.
The blood moon cloak that gathered behind Xinyue lost control and fell on Xinyue instead.
In the blink of an eye, Xinyue's body was corroded and assimilated by the Blood Moon Cloak.
The blood moon cloak fluttered for a while, but because no one was controlling it, the condensed soul power decomposed on its own and turned into wisps of smoke that drifted away.
Xin Yue's body on the ground also completely disappeared, including her clothes. Only a short sword and a round translucent crystal were left.
Gao Xuan had anticipated this, but he used Xinyue's power too roughly and ended up hurting himself.
Of course, Xinyue never expected her opponent to be so powerful. With the help of the Blood Moon Cloak, Xinyue's soul power was more than ten times stronger than his.
Xinyue was like driving a tank, but Gao Xuan only had a grenade in his hand. The two sides met in an open terrain. Under normal circumstances, Gao Xuan would have no chance of winning.
Gao Xuan's exquisite use of the Xuanshen Seal is equivalent to throwing a grenade into the barrel of a cannon when the enemy is firing, causing the shell to explode.
This method was too ingenious and too incredible. It was completely beyond Xinyue's imagination.
When Xinyue decided to kill Gao Xuan, she was doomed to fail. The only difference was how she died.
Gao Xuan was not just lucky. If he repeated the battle ten thousand times, the result would not be any different.
Gao Xuan didn't want to be in the spotlight, but the other party was determined to give away his life, so there was nothing he could do even if he wanted to just do nothing.
After dealing with Xinyue, Gao Xuan walked over and picked up both the crystal and the dagger.
This round crystal looks round, but its surface actually has thousands of facets, just like a carefully polished diamond.
Diamonds are already very common stones, and the technology of artificial diamonds is even more mature. In this era, they have become very cheap. No matter how big a diamond is, it is not much more expensive than a glass product.
This round crystal stone looks very transparent, but if you look closely you can see seven colors of light shining inside.
Gao Xuan could clearly feel the pure and powerful spiritual power contained in it.
If he swallowed this divine crystal, his spiritual power should be able to immediately leap to the peak of bronze, and it would not be surprising if he could reach the silver foundation-building level.
He also instinctively had an urge to swallow the divine crystal, but he immediately controlled this instinctive urge.
After a thousand years of Nirvana, his soul was so pure that he didn't need to rely on these external things. Just practicing step by step was enough.
Although absorbing divine crystals can rapidly lead to progress, it is actually harmful to the soul.
Gao Xuan took out a special box and put the divine crystal in it. This box was specially coated with a special alloy and was specially made according to a certain ratio. It could isolate the source of power and various particles. It was a special equipment used to store various evil god items.
Gao Xuan was not polite about the remaining short sword. This kind of item had no owner. Whoever got it would own it. No one would hand it over.
The company makes people work hard in the front, so it is impossible not to give them any benefits. Such insignificant things belong to individuals, which is also the default rule. If Gao Xuan handed it over, it would be unusual.
Gao Xuan put the box away and then drew out the dagger. The blade of this dagger was 20 centimeters long, slender and bright as a mirror. The hilt was also very delicate.
This sword looks light, but it is very heavy. As soon as Gao Xuan picked it up, he knew that this short sword weighed twelve kilograms.
It must be made of some special metal, and some kind of rune was added to the blade. Two words were engraved on the sword jaw: Taiyin.
Gao Xuan was somewhat amused. This Moon Goddess was quite knowledgeable about Eastern culture. Of course, this dagger might not be related to the Moon Goddess.
Gao Xuan swung his sword horizontally, and a silver stream of light spread out like a fan, then disappeared in an instant, leaving behind only a leisurely sword sound in the air.
What a good thing.
Gao Xuan was quite satisfied. This Taiyin Sword certainly couldn't compare to Zhan Shen and Hong Yi. But for the current situation, it was already a top-grade sword.
The metal used to cast the sword was also very special, and the runes inside did not have the aura of evil gods. It was just right for him to use.
Although he had never tried it, he knew by feel that this dagger was enough to break through light exoskeleton armor.
More importantly, the sword is very spiritual.
Gao Xuan had a short blade on his belt, so he took it off and hung the Taiyin Sword on it. It fit perfectly, but it felt heavy on his waist.
After packing up his things, Gao Xuan reported to Wei Ying, "Minister, we encountered the apostle Xinyue, killed Xinyue on the spot, and got the divine crystal."
The members of the operation are equipped with cameras, which will record all the operations. However, due to various radiations in the underground world, wireless information is greatly interfered.
The spell cast by Xin Yue made all other members of the field department unconscious. The person in charge of wireless communications also fell into a coma.
Gao Xuan's signal was temporarily interrupted. It was not until he took the initiative to adjust the communication equipment that he was able to establish contact with Wei Ying again.
Wei Ying was overjoyed when he heard the report. "I will immediately take people over to meet them. Stay where you are and don't move."
At this moment, a group of people rushed out of the hall.
The leader was none other than Leng Li from the Special Service Department. Behind Leng Li were a dozen or so Special Service Department experts, all of them covered in blood and with murderous looks.
Leng Li saw Gao Xuan and asked hurriedly: "Did you see the new moon?"
“Yes.”
"Where did she go?"
"I killed him."
Gao Xuan said it simply, but Leng Li was shocked. She stared at Gao Xuan deeply: "Where is Xinyue's body?"
"It's turned into a corpse. The divine crystal is in my hand."
Gao Xuan said: "I have already reported this to the minister."
Leng Li was full of doubt: "The divine crystal is in your hand? Let me see it."
Gao Xuan shook his head: "That won't do. This was obtained by our field department. I can only hand it over to the minister."
Leng Li raised her eyebrows, and the group of people behind her also had murderous looks on their faces. A small field worker dared to be so arrogant, he really didn't know how to live or die.
Gao Xuan reminded softly: "There is a stable information transmitter here. If you have anything to report, you can contact your superiors here."
Leng Li understood that Gao Xuan was reminding them not to mess around. Leng Li glanced at the communicator and saw that it was telling them that the communication network had been connected.
She didn't say anything, but just glanced at Gao Xuan again. This guy called Hei Hu was thought to have gotten to the top by relying on a woman, but unexpectedly he had some abilities!
