C292 Perilous Counterattack(part I)

The night wind blew gently, and the surroundings of the Vatican became dark and cool, as if it was winter. The water in the fountain in St. Peter's Square had even started to freeze.

The heaven and earth origin energy and Baleful Yin Force violently fluctuated. The tree branches in the forest where Lin Bai was standing swayed non-stop, emitting a series of crackling sounds. Some of the weak and small branches even cracked under the violent fluctuations in the air, falling to the ground with a crashing sound.

The sound of Lin Bai's chanting incantations was drowned out by the sound of falling leaves and branches. Although the leaves were constantly attacking his body, Lin Bai's expression was still solemn and dignified. His mind was in a state of extreme focus as he held the sword technique in front of him with a surging killing intent as if he was holding a peerless vicious weapon.

The sword technique in his left hand drew one strange pattern after another in the air. Lin Bai's eyes narrowed as he stared at the patterns, and then he flipped his right hand to the scroll, which contained the Innate Luo Book. The killing intent in the scroll continued to condense into a pattern, blending the killing intent with Baleful Yin Force.

One after another, the talismans were refined by Lin Bai in the air, and all of his mana was controlling these talismans, causing them to condense into a Eight Trigrams pattern. Layers after layers of talismans were superimposed on each other.

At the same time, the dark black baleful qi released by Avril rushed in front of Lin Bai. Although the dark black baleful qi was blocked by the talismans condensed from the void, it kept on rolling and tried to invade Lin Bai's body to corrode his mind.

After the talisman and the dark black infernal energy came into contact, the surroundings began to emit a violent sound of air exploding! Even though Lin Bai had the protection of Luo Shu and Xuan Yuan Mirror, he was still under tremendous pressure. The talismans surrounding him only managed to barely block the attack of the dark black infernal energy, preventing his mind from being severely injured.

However, the clashing sound of metal in the dark black infernal energy seemed to interfere with the surrounding heaven and earth origin energy from every angle, forming a vortex shape and invading Lin Bai's body and mind. His entire body felt as if he had fallen into an icehouse. The ice-cold pain that was splattered all over his body was like millions of ants gnawing at Lin Bai's body. If he was the slightest bit careless, Lin Bai's mind might fall into the icehouse.

Lin Bai did his best to use Xuanyuan mirror to stabilize his mind and prevent himself from being affected by the dark fiendish energy. He then continued to conjure talismans in the air, slapping them forward in an attempt to resolve this crisis.

It was so clear that it caused goosebumps to appear all over Lin Bai's body. Moreover, cold sweat flowed down his back, and he even wanted to reach behind to wipe the sweat that seemed to freeze after it had been left behind. Slowly, a tiny crack appeared in Lin Bai's mind.

After all, he had not fully recovered from his injuries, and he had not yet mastered the control of Xuanyuan mirror. Furthermore, he lacked the experience of fighting to the death with his opponent, especially against Avril, who had lost her humanity like a crazed devil.

In St. Peter's Cathedral, the cardinals and cardinals felt as if their blood vessels were about to burst. They stared at Avril in astonishment as she sat on the throne of the Pope. They finally understood why Benedict would let this strange woman in black sit on this throne.

At this moment, Benedict's mental state was on the verge of collapse. His injuries from the previous match with Lin Bai had not completely healed, so how could his mental state withstand such a powerful impact! His body went limp and he fell to the side. Seeing this, the cardinals hastened to Benedict's side and helped him to his feet, but did not inquire after his strength.

Benedict was panting nonstop. Leaning against the cardinals, his forehead was bulging with veins and his body was trembling nonstop. His face was extremely pale, and he looked extremely terrifying!

"If I can't hold on any longer, I'll cover my ears!" Avril could sense the movements at its side, and it forcefully suppressed the fear in its heart as it coldly spoke to Benedict and the cardinals.

At this point in time, Avril had no interest in caring about whether these methods of his would cause any problems for Benedict. She had already put away the pride and contempt she had felt after winning against Lin Bai. He did not dare to be careless anymore. He used all of his strength to continuously draw out the Yin Qi from St. Peter's Tomb with the help of the Yang Pingzhi Seal, trying his best to break Lin Bai's mind!

Actually, Avril's current condition was not much better than Benedict's Sixteenth. Originally, she thought Lin Bai would still use the Empty City strategy like last time, but she didn't expect that Lin Bai's spell would have some strange changes. He had obviously blocked the condensed Baleful Yin Force. However, he had no idea where it came from, but a wave of energy was attacking him.

Avril would never have thought that Lin Bai, who had lost all of his mana and suffered damage to his mind and meridians, could recover so quickly. Moreover, his original level of defense was now even more perfect. No matter what method he used, no matter how he activated the dark black infernal energy, it was unable to shake Lin Bai's mind.

Such inhuman healing and defensive power was simply unbelievable. He was practically a legendary figure!

Thinking of this, Avril became even more determined to kill Lin Bai here. If it was allowed to grow, not to mention its own plans, even if it was just a small life, sooner or later, it would be ruined by this young man!

However, at this moment, a surge of frigid, cold killing intent suddenly surged out, charging towards Avril's body.

Avril was shocked. If it were not for Yang Pingzhi's seal protecting her body, it would have been more than enough to take her life! Feeling the murderous aura around her body like a peerless weapon, Avril was forced to bite the tip of her tongue and spit a mouthful of blood on the Yang Pingzhi Seal, forcing the magic treasure to block it!

Even so, Avril was horrified to find that Lin Bai's murderous aura was getting more and more intense, like the waves on the sea. The waves never stopped, bringing with them the power to destroy the world, trying to smash her into pieces.

Avril had fought with numerous dark wizards and the church in the past, but it was the first time she had encountered such a method. A person's physical strength was limited, and their mana was also limited. To use Baleful Yin Force so recklessly, even someone with a Yang Level Heal Seal wouldn't be able to do it. She began to suspect that Lin Bai had an even better magic item than Yang Ping Heal Seal.

The formula was like a raging fire that never stopped, and it didn't look tired at all. The killing intent in the incoming Yin energy was getting more and more obvious, while the clanging sound of metals in Avril's dark energy was getting weaker and weaker, and it even seemed like Avril was about to succumb to the killing intent!

Avril knew that the magic power in her body had already reached an unstable state, and her control over Yang Pingzhi's hand seals had reached a critical point. The magic tool had its own intelligence and could choose its own magic treasure holder. Avril was just forcefully activating it, and the consumption of the magic tool was minuscule. How could she withstand such a tense battle?

Avril's mind was trembling, and it was beginning to feel like it was going into a coma. The sweet and fishy feeling in her throat was getting stronger and stronger. With a frown, Avril clenched her teeth and forcefully suppressed her emotions. She looked at Benedict and snapped, "I can't hold on any longer. Begin the blood sacrifice!"

Blood sacrifice?! Hearing Avril's words, the cardinals and cardinals around Benedict's Sixteenth Zhou were filled with questions.

Benedict forced himself to stand up, and with a tone full of compassion, he looked at the bishops and softly said:

"Today, there is a spring of blood that springs from the Lord, and the sinners can go all over their bodies as long as they are washed here. I truly believe that Jesus suffered for me and that the Father and the Son of Heaven died like this. Until the end of the clumsy mouth, silent in the grave, in the sky still want to praise the Lord's great salvation! For the glory of my master, I sacrifice my blood for his sake! "

Following Benedict XVI's words, the group of cardinals and cardinals had expressions of sudden enlightenment on their faces, but their eyes were glazed to the extreme. Traces of Baleful Yin Force could be vaguely seen in the air, invading their minds, occupying their minds, and manipulating them to do all sorts of actions that went against their hearts.

"Use my blood to repay my Lord. Use my blood to spread my Lord's grace. Use my blood to spread my Lord's gospel. Use my blood to prove my Lord's true love!"

He was at the height of five stories and had ignited ninety-nine lamps. He walked under the bronze canopy that covered the ancestral altars and St. Peter's Graveyard, faced the direction of the rising sun in the east, gripped his dagger under the bronze canopy, and stabbed himself in the heart.

Blood was gushing from the hearts of the bishops, from the hearts of those who served God to the end of their lives, to the hearts of the white-haired and vast, and it spilled over the tomb of St. Peter, over the pool where the Pope had placed the holy water during Mass.

As the blood offering began, the blood covering St. Peter's grave suddenly lit up with a dazzling light, reflecting Avril's sunken eye sockets, and her face was as thin as the face of the devil Satan recorded in the Bible.
