Chapter 165 The Grand Priest's Palm Of Judgment
When those Revered Constellation powerhouses from Star Hall used their astral pressure to suppress the weaker Hong Clan members, Hong Feng and the rest of the elders immediately took action.
They released their astral pressure to resist the astral pressure of those Priests from Star Hall.
They discovered that those old priests from Star Hall had come out of their retirement homes and went to attack their Hong Clan!
Furthermore, the one leading those old priests was none other than the Grand Priest himself!
"Your puny clan's heir dared to sully my granddaughter's purity!? Face the wrath of this old man!"
The Grand Priest vented his anger and his thunderous voice had made the weaker Hong Clan members feel as if they had become deaf.
The Grand Priest was the father of the Star Hall Pope and the grandfather of the Holy Maiden. Although the Grand Priest was too old and he was decades away from dying, his power was still on par with Hong Feng.
Both Hong Feng and the Grand Priest were Level 99 Revered Constellations.
The advantage of the Grand Priest was his god-grade Holy Armor star artifact which was superior in star artifact grade when compared to Hong Feng's top-grade Scorching Sun Sword star artifact.
On the other hand, Hong Feng's advantage was that Hong Feng was in his prime.
Unlike the Grand Priest—an old antique whose body seemed to have been withered by the sands of time, Hong Feng was still young and vigorous.
Hong Feng was only in his forties while the Grand Priest was already over a hundred years old.
But what troubled Hong Feng the most was the fact that the Grand Priest's star artifact focused on defense while his star artifact focused on attack. If it was another Level 99 Revered Constellation from other top forces, Hong Feng had the confidence that he would win.
But with the star artifact of the Grand Priest that restrained him, Hong Feng knew that he could only tie with the Grand Priest at most.
'Sigh, the Hong Clan is fortunate that the ancestral heir has been unsealed. If not for the presence of the ancestral heir, the Hong Clan will undoubtedly be doomed.'
'Even if I hold back the Grand Priest, there are still 12 other priests from the Constellation Palace that the Grand Priest had brought with him. All of them are Revered Constellation powerhouses while there are only 6 clan elders at Revered Constellation. Even if the Grand Elder is included, the Hong Clan only has 7 Revered Constellation powerhouses left to contend with the Priests from the Constellation Palace.'
'Furthermore, that's not all of the Revered Constellation powerhouses that the Star Hall has. Yet just the Constellation Palace alone is enough to utterly destroy the Hong Clan.'
'I have to admit, the foresight of the second ancestor and the ancestral heir is worthy of admiration. If not for the existence of the ancestral heir as our Hong Clan's last resort, the Hong Clan would have ceased to exist at this time.'
With those thoughts in his mind, Hong Feng was glad that the ancestral heir was wise and noble enough to leave such a trump card for future generations.
As long as the Hong Clan's destruction was prevented, Hong Feng didn't even care about his clan patriarch position. For him, that was nothing but a small price to pay.
Unlike those young heirs such as Hong De or those old clan elders who were obsessed with becoming the clan patriarch just to control the power of the Hong Clan, Hong Feng didn't care much about who would lead the clan as long as it was in good hands.
After Hong Feng sighed at how lucky the Hong Clan was to have the ancestral heir, the Grand Priest was further infuriated that the Hong Clan could still put up some resistance. n-/O)/v(/e-/l-(b)/1-.n
Wanting to destroy the Hong Clan as soon as possible to quell his anger, the Grand Priest no longer held back and gathered holy light in his right palm. The Holy Armor was donned on the Grand Priest's body, emanating with bright golden holy light.
"What a bright light bulb!"
Alister, the ancestral heir, mocked the old fossil that acted as a human light bulb in the sky.
When the Hong Clan heard Alister's remarks, they couldn't help but grimace and revere at how bold and brave their ancestral heir was.
On the other hand, the old priests were very offended and insulted by Alister's ridicule towards the Grand Priest.
In response, the Grand Priest snorted, "Your arrogance will be your demise. A junior like you dared to insult this old man's majesty? Die!"
"Palm Of Judgment: God's Punishment On This Mortal World!"
"May your sinful souls be cleansed by the holy light!"
Slamming his right palm in a downward motion, there was a mountain-like golden palm that manifested above the sky. The golden palm was brimming with holy light and it followed the downward motion of the Grand Priest's palm, causing the mountain-sized golden palm to descend towards the Hong Clan's lands.
Most of the weaker members of the Hong Clan had already passed out due to the collision of astral pressure between Revered Constellation powerhouses. But for those who managed to keep their consciousness, they felt as if the world was about to end.
In front of the mountain-sized golden palm, they felt like little ants that had offended god's majesty.
Even the weaker Revered Constellation elders felt oppressed by the Grand Priest's Palm Of Judgment.
Although Hong Feng wanted to make a move, he knew that the ancestral heir hadn't commanded them yet so they could only wait and believe in the ancestral heir.
The ancestral heir had already become the clan patriarch so they could only make a move if the ancestral heir ordered them to.
Sure enough, the ancestral heir didn't let them down.
Leaving his wooden chair, Alister gazed at the golden palm above the sky.
"Palm Of Judgment? God's Punishment? Heh! For an old man, you sure are delusional."
