Chapter 460: The Dark Holy Bible

~6 min read 1,108 words

Regarding this seventh, and absolutely should not appear here, voice and presence, the six people in the darkness instantly gave their most instinctive reaction.

Swish!

The six silhouettes sprang from their chairs almost simultaneously, without any hesitation, all flashing backward away from the round table and away from the source of the voice!

Their movements were swift as if rehearsed a thousand times, instantly creating a distance of at least five meters from Yu Lin, forming a loose encircling ring in the darkness.

Immediately after, a low, rapid chant rose simultaneously from the six directions.

As the incantation progressed, six clusters of dark‑red light, as if formed from solidified blood mixed with shadows, ignited in each of their hands.

The light quickly coalesced and stretched, ultimately becoming the phantasms of six hefty books.

The phantasms gradually solidified, faintly revealing twisted characters on their covers.

Although the light was dim and the script was not a common language, Yu Lin's eyesight and knowledge were enough for him to discern the core terms.

It was the words "Holy Bible"!

However, before "Holy Bible" there was a string of older, more obscure, ominous prefix modifiers, seeming to indicate this "Holy Bible" was "different".

Yu Lin still stood calmly on the table, quietly watching them complete the summoning and solidify the book phantasms.

Until those six "Holy Bibles" emitting strange aberrant waves fully solidified in their hands, exuding a heart‑pounding pressure, he then, under the six people's uncertain gazes, leisurely spoke:

"Why aren't the lights on?"

"... What?"

"Not turning on the lights late at night, gathering here to read, is bad for the eyes and leads to nearsightedness."

"………………"

The six fell into brief silence, their eyes toward each other filled with great confusion.

This guy... does he have something wrong with his brain?

Is this the time to discuss whether to turn on the lights?! You're still caring about the superior, aren't you?

Does he even know his own situation?!

Could this new Saint be a fool?

"Don't let him disturb!"

A voice barked, suppressing the unease in their hearts:

"Strike! Control him! He must not leave!"

The command issued, the six again chanted in unison, the syllables more rapid than before.

The "Holy Bibles" in their hands automatically fluttered noisily, stopping at a certain page.

Dark‑red Magic Array patterns spread from the pages into the air, interweaving and locking onto Yu Lin at the center!

"Flap—!"

Accompanied by a harsh, chain‑rubbing screech, six massive chains, coiled with eerie green flames as if from the deepest Hell fire, surged out violently from the six "Holy Bibles"!

The chain ends bore sharp reverse hooks, entwined with ominous Runes, tearing the air, and from six different directions they coiled and pierced toward Yu Lin!

This time, Yu Lin still did not move.

He seemed to be carefully sensing and confirming something.

Snort! Clang!

The chains burning with Hell fire wrapped unimpeded around his body, limbs, and neck.

The next moment, the chains tightened, emitting a taut metallic sound, binding him firmly in place!

Seeing this, the six's taut heartstrings seemed to finally loosen a bit, their faces simultaneously breaking into relieved smiles—got him!

But Yu Lin, bound by layers of chains, showed no panic at all, instead a hint of understanding and interest.

"Indeed... the Holy Son's power," he murmured, as if savoring:

"Though a bit odd... the primal aura, indeed."

He raised his chain‑bound arm, paying no mind to the soul‑scorching eerie green flame, his gaze sweeping over the six's "Holy Bibles", and asked again:

"Where did you get this book?"

One of them, seemingly the leader, sneered at the words, his voice echoing through the darkness with a confidence‑filled arrogance and contempt for the "Saint" title:

"Hmph! That's not a problem you should consider!"

"Don't think that bearing the 'Saint' name and being under God's protection makes you truly invincible! At this moment, aren't you already in our hands? Come!"

He spoke while suddenly exerting force, attempting to use the "Holy Bible" phantasm in his hand to command the chains and drag Yu Lin toward him.

However.

Something's off! The force felt at the chain's end... weightier than imagined!

As if he were dragging not a person but a towering mountain!

No matter how he summoned magic, Yu Lin's figure remained completely still, steady as a rock!

"I told you," Yu Lin's voice rang again, as indifferent as before: "Not turning on the lights late at night is bad for the eyes."

"I'll turn a light on for you."

The moment the words fell—

Boom—!

Brilliant Golden Light erupted suddenly!

It was the overlay of Indestructible and Merit Golden Body!

One defends against physical attacks, the other is impervious to all methods.

With both combined, Yu Lin at this moment became the most solid, unshakable existence in the world!

The Hell‑fire‑burning chains, under this pure Golden Light assault, were like ice snow meeting scorching sun; the eerie green flame instantly extinguished, and the chains themselves began to crack, soften, and finally fragment and crumble!

"Ah—! My eyes!"

"It's Holy Light?! No… more than Holy Light… Close your eyes! Quickly, close your eyes!"

"I can't see! I can't see anything!"

The Golden Light not only shattered the chains; its radiant, righteous energy, for the six who have long been steeped in darkness and evil forces, is like the most potent poison and the strongest blinding flashbang!

They screamed in agony, trying to close their eyes or shield them with their hands, but the Golden Light seemed able to pierce all obstacles, directly scorching their sight and even their soul perception.

The six instantly wept and shed tears, falling into a state of total blindness and sensory chaos.

Yu Lin's Golden Light on his body slowly receded; he moved his wrist, as if merely brushing away some dust.

Then, he extended his right hand, reaching out into the air—

The six broken chain remnants, not yet fully dissipated and still linked to the six phantom copies of the Holy Bible, seemed seized by an invisible hand and suddenly tightened!

"Come here."

The six only felt an irresistible massive force, their bodies involuntarily yanked off the ground, then violently slammed onto the open ground before Yu Lin, rolling into a heap, in a sorry state.

They still covered their eyes, emitting painful moans.

Yu Lin crouched, looking at these six temporarily powerless, immersed in the Golden Light's burning pain, and repeated his question:

"Tell me, this 'book', where did you get it from?"

This time, he did not wait for a response or resistance.

【Words become law】, activated.

"It's, it's the Dark Holy Bible!"
