The Temple of Light, although it is late at night, is still brightly lit. The luxurious and huge palace looks magnificent under the lights, like a paradise on earth.
Inside the palace, many practitioners were busy, some looked nervous, while others looked excited, all preparing for the upcoming battle.
With the power of the Holy Grail restored, the Holy Emperor finally had the confidence to restore his former glory and let the glory of the Holy See of Light once again cover the Western Continent.
He was even confident that one day he would be able to march east again and spread the faith of the Holy See of Light to every corner of the world.
History will be re-infused in his hands. If he can conquer the East with a huge population base, his strength will surely be further improved, and he will step into the realm of Martial Honor, and even reach the level of Wu Shi, which is not impossible!
At this moment, a middle-aged man in knight's clothes came quickly.
"Dear Wells, is there any news?" Austin's eyes fell on the visitor and he spoke slowly.
Wells, the leader of the Knights Templar and a top martial artist, is the sharpest sword in Austin's hand.
"Your Majesty, I have just received information that a group of Chinese practitioners arrived at the Dark Castle some time ago." Wells said solemnly.
"A Chinese cultivator?" Austin frowned. Although he expected that the Chinese cultivator community would form an alliance with the Dark Council, he did not expect that China would directly send a strong man to come.
"How many people are there?" Austin asked in a deep voice.
"No less than ten people." Wells said.
"Ten people? So few?" Austin was stunned. Ten people were not really a lot. Even if they were all nine-star martial artists, they could not make up for the gap between the Dark Council and the Holy See of Light. You know, the number of ascetics was maintained above ten, and almost every one of them was a nine-star martial artist.
"The martial master of the Long family is here?" Austin asked. He didn't care about the nine-star martial artist.
But he couldn't help but care about Long Yi, who was the closest to him in strength. Although the power of the Holy Grail had been restored, Austin believed that he could easily defeat Long Yi. But with the arrival of such a strong man, there might be some changes in the action against the Dark Council this time.
"It's impossible to be sure for now." Wells shook his head. Their spies near the Dark Castle also suffered a huge blow. They have not yet investigated what level of existence the powerful people who came from the Chinese cultivation world are.
"It's really crazy." Austin sighed softly, "The Dark Council and the Chinese cultivation world have joined forces, and the Chinese cultivation world has even sent troops personally."
"Your Majesty, should we postpone our action and first investigate the powerful people sent by the Chinese cultivation community?" Weiss looked at Austin not far away and said in a deep voice.
"No need." Austin waved his hand and said firmly, "The enemy is in the dark, I am in the light. The longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for us. The Chinese cultivation world may even send more powerful people here. After all, this is our home ground. Even if Long Yi comes in person, he can't change anything."
"Your Majesty is wise." Looking at Austin who was looking confident not far away, Wells couldn't help but admire.
This generation of Holy Emperor recovered the Holy Grail and fulfilled the wishes of all previous Holy Emperors. He has great prestige in the Holy See. With his greatly increased strength, he is not afraid of North and Long Yi at all.
"The plan will proceed and we will send out troops tomorrow." Austin's eyes gleamed with a fighting spirit.
This time, he wanted to wipe out the Dark Council in one fell swoop. In Austin's opinion, the reason why the Saint Emperor's Eastern Expedition failed was not because the Saint Emperor of that generation was not strong, but because the Saint Emperor of that generation did not completely wipe out the Dark Council, but only severely damaged the Dark Council. He was in a hurry to go east, and not only had to face the powerful Eastern cultivation world, but also the practitioners of the Dark Council behind him, and he was attacked from both sides, which led to his final defeat.
Austin will not make such a mistake again. This time, he will first eliminate the Dark Council to stabilize and expand the power of the Holy See of Light in Europe, and then march eastward in one fell swoop to take over the Chinese cultivation world.
In the early morning, when the first ray of morning light shone on the temple, a layer of silver light appeared above the temple. At this time, hundreds of practitioners from all over the world gathered in front of the temple, and every practitioner had reached the level of martial artist.
In the center of the temple, Austin looked at the many practitioners present and became excited. If it were not for dealing with the Dark Council, even he would not have been able to see so many powerful people.
"Light will surely dispel darkness, and the Holy Emperor will eventually rule over all worlds!" Suddenly, Austin said loudly.
In front of the temple, it suddenly became extremely quiet. Everyone was waiting for the Holy Emperor's instructions. Their faces were flushed with excitement.
"Today, I will lead you to eliminate the enemies hiding in the darkness and bring light to the world." Austin shouted loudly.
"Light will surely dispel darkness, and the Holy Emperor will eventually rule over all directions!" Below, hundreds of practitioners shouted in unison like thunder.
Everyone's face is filled with excitement. At this moment, they are fearless. At this moment, they will fight for the Holy Emperor and they will move forward bravely!
"Let's go, let us lead the light to dispel the darkness." Austin waved his hand, and the next moment, hundreds of practitioners turned into a stream of people and came out of the Kingdom of Light.
Although it was only early in the morning, the sudden action of so many missionaries together still caused quite a stir. However, in the eyes of most ordinary people, these missionaries were just an activity organized by the Holy See of Light, and they did not think much about it.
Dark castle.
When the strong men of the Kingdom of Light set out, North had already received the news at the first time. Like the Holy See of Light, the strong men of the Dark Council had also gathered in the Dark Castle long ago.
A team of several hundred people gathered in front of the castle. Next to North were the thirteen elders and the vice president of the Dark Council.
"Today, the Holy See of Light has once again launched a holy war. This time, it will be a battle for our survival." North looked at the many practitioners of the Dark Council in front of him and said loudly.
“Survive, survive!”
As soon as President North finished speaking, deafening cheers were heard. Although not as fanatical as that of the Holy See of Light, every practitioner had a determined look on their faces at this moment.
The Dark Council and the Church of Light have been fighting for countless years, and they have always been at a disadvantage, but they have never given up, because they want to survive. If they want to kill them, they will make the other party pay the price, even if the other party is stronger than them, they will not surrender.
"Since the Holy See of Light wants to exterminate us, what should we do?" President North asked loudly.
“Fight, fight, fight!”
Waves of sound spread. (To be continued)
