My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

As the black smoke appeared, before the Faceless One's figure had completely materialized, thirty nuns hidden in the surroundings simultaneously made their move following the command in the psychic network.

Among them, ten were Saints of Holy Light, which constituted the majority of the high-end power of the nun contingent.

These thirty nuns formed groups of three, with a Saint of Holy Light leading each group, while the other two placed their hands on the shoulders of their leader.

The Saints of Holy Light raised their hands high, and a pristine Absolute Shining Barrier spread out from them in all directions, enveloping dazed and astonished Lords within.

Ten enchantments perfectly merged together, forming a massive barrier that covered the entire street block.

The pure light filled the sky and the earth, isolating all filth, might, and storms.

The Faceless One felt that something was slightly amiss.

Were the methods deployed by Tianyuan City too targeted? Had they come prepared?

He also saw three figures, who seemed to be strong warriors of the city, forming a triangular position around him.

The Faceless One's thoughts raced as his gaze fixated on Lu Liu, who seemed the most intimidating in his eyes. The next second...

Whoosh—!

His form suddenly became a blur, a shadow with no face, yet seemingly with thousands of faces, instantly dashing in front of Lainey.

Among the three, Lainey was the weakest.

His black blade continuously extended, piercing through one light barrier after another before him.

This speed was faster than both Isloa and Lu Liu, let alone Lainey, who was merely at the Four-order Peak.

Lainey could not catch a glimpse of the Faceless One's figure or movements; the enemy was like a dark specter, only the sense of impending death assaulting her from all directions betrayed his presence.

...

"Mage... Traditional Mages also lack speed. In ancient times, there was a common saying that a warrior would win within seven steps, and Mages are natural prey to shadow-moving assassins. As for you nuns, setting aside the minority who wield hammers, your way of fighting is not much different from that of us traditional Mages."

Facing Lainey, who had come to seek advice, Isloa continuously shared her experiences.

"If your eyes cannot see or keep up, then do not rely on them."

"The elements of nature, the premonition of crisis, the fluctuations of energy... use your heart to explore, use the methods you nuns are proficient in."

"Come, let's start practicing now. Close your eyes; I'll attack, you defend."

...

With heart.

To capture the energy and... the sticky, disgusting, unmistakably clear filth.

Lainey had already put her hands together in a prayer-like gesture, and as the filth suddenly invaded, she also perfectly released the power of purification.

Rings of sacred radiance spread out, dispelling the shadow filled with malice and the blade wreathed with sticky black smoke.

"Ding—"

Only the chopstick-length part of the black blade was left, blocked by the light barrier.

The Faceless One was about to burst forth with power again when a premonition of death arose. Using his special ability, he defied inertia and pulled his entire body back.

Piercing—

A concentrated beam of light came striking from the side, grazing his form and whisking away several fragments into the wind.

After the cerulean beam of light sliced through the space, it quickly raised upward, shooting into the clouds in the sky.

"Boom—"

A low rumble came from the high above, as if a chunk was missing from the cotton candy-like clouds, as though nibbled away by someone greedy.

This beam was highly condensed, containing extreme power.

It appeared unremarkable, but was incredibly terrifying.

If hit, one would die!

The Faceless One glanced to the side, where a girl in a Starlight Robe with fluttering pink hair held up her bare hand. Six round Magic Spheres were swirling around her wrist, gradually spreading outward.

The next moment, in front of each Magic Sphere, an intricate and mystic Array emerged.

Patterns were densely packed upon it, with Starlight flowing through.

From each, a beam of star-blue light as thick as the girl's arm but condensed to the extreme coalesced in an instant and shot out.

Six beams of light struck horizontally!

The Faceless One's pupils shrank, "How cold-blooded is this human girl?"

This strike, when it came crashing down, would kill at least hundreds of ordinary people within its radius—weren't these insignificant ants supposed to be human weaknesses?

In front of the Faceless One, a huge face appeared, its expressions constantly changing, young and old, sorrowful and fierce.

The face opened its mouth.

"Piercing—"

The cerulean light beam tore through the entire face, as if ripping open a tattered sack.

Having dodged the Faceless One's side, the beams that were meant to hit him now turned in the distant sky, arching back like long whips, like a wide net, sweeping down.

Controlled by the human girl standing far away.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"She must not be spared!"

The Faceless One quickly used his racial talent, the technique of body transfer!

Being a Faceless One, he naturally had an alternate body left outside of Tianyuan City.

The Faceless One looked down upon the city, at each of the human faces.

He would come back.

"Buzz—!"

The humanoid black smoke blurred for a moment, then returned to normal as if nothing had happened.

High above, unseen and undetectable, a grand secret tower stood, within which countless Array Patterns hummed and operated.
