Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 378 - 379: Bold Guess 2/2 [7/8]

After a clash of energies, Kain was sent flying backward, quite awkwardly smashing into a giant tree not far behind him.

’What?’

’What’s this?’

’Have I found it?’

"It seems the Pope and his council were right!"

Being pushed into the barrier and gradually surrounded by Abyssal Demons behind him, Kain showed no signs of anxiety. Instead, a smile of joy emerged on his face. His face, initially mangled due to the backlash from ’Divine War form’, suddenly appeared even more fierce because of his grin. For a moment, Kain completely lost the grace of a Heavenly Apostle, looking more like a demonic ghost laughing maniacally.

"Hahaha!!! It’s here!"

’It looks like my luck is holding up!’

’Just a sweep of three locations, and I found the final target at the fourth?’

’Inside Winter Forest?’

’An invisible barrier?! And its hardness that was enough to send me flying?!’

’This must be the Demon Temple!’

After making this judgment,

Kain not only ignored the Abyssal Demons attacking him from all directions, but also disregarded the agony brought by the backlash, and boldly mobilized the Thunder Holy energy inside his body. As the Abyssal Demons were about to touch him, lightning reappeared, and Kain burst forward like a starving beast released from its shackles, wielding the power of surging thunder. Just in an instant, the rampant power and the lightning surrounding his thunder armor blasted the approaching Abyssal Demons.

Gathering his energy, Kain fearlessly charged at the invisible barrier with everything he had.

"Heavenly Thunder Catastrophe."

A holy magic circle drawn by dark purple lightning suddenly appeared in his palm, destructive thunder continuously gathered in the center of the circle under his guidance. The imposing aura released warped everything around him.

Even the Abyssal Demons, who knew no fear, couldn’t help but tremble at the power Kain displayed.

But this time,

It was different from before.

Now, Kain had gathered his energy. Almost all of his Holy energy was used to amplify his strength, not to increase his speed like before. Naturally, the full-force attack of an 8th-level could not be underestimated. Under Kain’s hopeful gaze, the energy spear in his right hand, gathered with robust Thunder Holy energy, collided with the invisible barrier in mid-air:

"Break for me!!!"

Accompanying Kain’s roar and the outburst of his Holy energy, numerous cracks emerged on the invisible barrier in mid-air.

*Crack~*

After an intense convulsion,

The barrier suddenly shattered.

Surrounded by lightning, Kain rushed in.

And just as Kain broke through the barrier, the world in his eyes underwent a drastic change. The ice and snow-covered forest soil distorted and turned into an open space covered in white snow.

’Is this?!’

’Is this the situation inside the barrier?!’

An excited Kain quickly adjusted his posture, promptly suppressing the turbulent power around his body back into himself, and folding his Thunder Wings, hastily making an emergency landing. Amidst a burst of thunderstorms and flying snow, this Heavenly Apostle directly smashed a massive pit in the ground.

"Is this... the inside of the barrier? Is this where the Demon Temple is? I... I’ve finally found it!! Hahahahaha!!"

Kain’s joyous laughter instantly echoed throughout the interior of the barrier.

Even though he had just entered the barrier,

The extremely dense atmosphere of the Shadow’s energy within the barrier, and the remnants of some Demon king Abyssal Demon’s aura, directly confirmed Kain’s speculation.

This is where the Demon temple is located.

The exact location of Demon temple,

A mystery that countless People have been trying to solve for centuries, at this moment, the source of all miseries, has finally been unveiled by him! Right now, Kain’s joy is indescribable, he’s incredibly thrilled, as if his blood is boiling with excitement.

The pain brought by the ’Divine War Form’ was completely thrown out of his mind.

Understanding the location of Demon Temple,

This means the most critical part of the Pope’s plan has been completed.

Destroying the Demon Temple, and restoring peace to the world, will no longer be a wishful dream!

Thinking of this,

Kain laughed crazily, impatiently leapt out of the deep pit to the snow-covered ground above, and anxiously looked around, wanting to see the legendary Demonic Temple that spawned all Abyssal Demons. However, after flying out of the pit, Kain froze, his violet eyes filled with disbelief,

Like being struck by lightning, he stood there,

Blinked somewhat doubtfully,

Because at this moment,

The ancient Temple that Kain was anticipating did not appear in his field of vision, his violet eyes saw nothing but a desolate snowy field,

"Eh?? Where... where... where is the... Demon Temple??!"

Kain couldn’t help but shout in surprise, falling into confusion alone in the wind.

"Where did it go?"

...

--

Back to the present time,

In the inner part of Asumos Church’s core Cathedral,

To avoid directly harming Kain’s soul, after briefly perusing Kain’s memory fragments, Kael slowly retracted his finger from Kain’s forehead. After his memory was read by Kael, Kain’s entire body suddenly collapsed,

Not only breaking into a cold sweat, but also couldn’t help but raise his hand to his chest, panting heavily.

Regarding Kain’s frailty,

Kael did not comment further, but slowly stood up, revealing a rare serious expression.

"Um... Not only enveloped by the barrier, but the interior is also densely filled with the aura of the Shadows. But the only issue is... the Demon Temple... was not found..."

"Yes..."

Catching his breath, Kain, after regaining some energy, quickly said:

"I believe that the location I found is correct! That place is where the Demon Temple is located! The reason... I did not see the Temple... is because..."

"Because of what?"

"Although it seems unrealistic, but... but I boldly suspect that the Temple is conscious, and... has changed its form, leaving the Winter Forest! That Monster may have already mixed into our human society!"

Kael: "..."
