Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 1168: Sin-ridden
The three ritualists were bound tightly by the power of sin, and they wailed miserably as if their bodies were being crushed bit by bit by an invisible millstone.

“——As expected.”

Aiwass watched the enemy who attacked him suffer, but there was no smile on his face.

The essence of the authority of Sin-bound is the ability to control and judge based on moral judgment, and it is the best manifestation of the power of sin and punishment of the Fallen Angels. Anyone who has committed a mortal sin cannot escape the bondage and torture of his own sin. Even if there is no mortal sin, it is still an extremely strong chain.

The more sinful they are, the stronger the power of sin that entangles them becomes... the stronger the chains, the more painful the torture.

The mortal sin here does not refer to the laws of the country, nor does it have anything to do with one's own moral sense. Its judgment is very vague, because the law of "mortal sin" is based on the shaping of the Fallen Angels.

But no one knows what He defined as "big sins" when He ascended to God, and the Fallen Angels have never taught this knowledge to the believers in the material world. It can be said that He has always deliberately concealed the specific criteria for judgment, so as to prevent people from fully studying it.

All that ritualists have been able to figure out over the years are the few major taboos that are condemned by both humans and gods, such as "using one's own kind as ritual materials" and "eating one's own kind."

According to Aiwass's judgment... there couldn't be many innocent people in this damned desert. Especially the ritualists... although there were ritualists of the Pure Sect who swore not to use materials from their own race, not to kill people, and not to curse.

But it was obvious that these ritualists who were sent out to kill people and massacre the city could not be pure ritualists, so Aiwas knew without even looking that they would be plagued by sin.

——This is the only designated must-eat dish in the ancient Parthia Empire.

If they have no mortal sins, they will be dragged into a deep coma by the power attached to their sins; and if they have committed mortal sins, they will be punished as if they were trapped in the eighteen levels of hell.

In fact, this is the original responsibility of the Fallen Angels.

The law of degeneration is to make him separate the souls in the material world into good and evil, thereby producing changes; and because there are good and evil, sins need to be punished, and once there are changes, this change should be allowed to cycle stably - let good people degenerate into evil people, and let evil people atone their sins and become good people. This is the complete law of sin that conforms to the concept of "the source of change".

In addition to granting him the power of depravity, Yuanhe also gave him the power of sin and punishment, which meant that he had to build a "hell" in the dream world to screen out the souls of sinners and punish them. If there were souls that could not be purified, they could be made into demons, so that they would stay in the dream world and not participate in the cycle... So the proportion of good and evil souls in the material world would keep changing, thus causing changes.

This is the judgment given to the Fallen Angel as Lucifer.

All I can say is that there was nothing wrong with Yuanhe’s original plan.

No matter how you look at it, this is in line with the needs of the Source River of Change, and it is likely to produce infinite variables in the material world.

However, the Fallen Angel was not happy - he didn't want to be a Fallen Angel at all. So he ignored the source river and only used the power of the "sin" part of Sin and Punishment to create his own Great Palace of Fallen Sin and create his own demon army.

He is only responsible for causing people to fall, but he does not punish sins and purify souls. As souls are recycled from generation to generation, more and more "original sins" are mixed in. This is the main reason why the moral values ​​of the material world are gradually declining.

This is just like the Shadow Heavenly Officers, who all performed their duties again according to their own understanding.

The Shadow God was originally supposed to be responsible for giving betrayers and avengers the power to complete their conspiracies or revenge, thereby creating variables in the society of the material world and allowing the races of the material world to self-iterate, thus becoming the God of "Shadow" with "hate" which is the opposite of love as the foundation.

Where there is the moon, there is the moon shadow. The reason why Shadow Celestial Being can serve as the Celestial Being of the Path of Love with such a strange domain is because she herself is the completion of the authority of the Eternal Self - the act of "love" can create from the level of reproduction, but the motivation of love is not enough to defeat the beast; but hatred can.

However, Ying Tiansi refused to give power to the betrayer because of his own likes and dislikes.

Because she herself occupies the realm of betrayal, she cannot give birth to a new celestial being about betrayal... and because of this, the betrayer can only seek power from the transcendent path that also pursues chaos. But not all avengers and betrayers have lofty ideals, so this search is many times more difficult.

After all, the purpose of the source river is only to maintain and expand its own concept. As for the survival of civilization itself, I am afraid that only the third and sixth source rivers will pay more attention to it.

The Heavenly Gods are not pure good gods or evil gods, they have their own preferences. Whether it is the Pillar Gods supporting the Apostles to create the Heavenly Gods, or the wild phantoms getting resonance from the source river on their own... after getting the power of the source river, they have the right to use the power according to their own ideas.

Anyway, once Yuanhe gave away the fragment of Tianshi, he could not take it back. And as long as a concept existed, a new Tianshi could not be born.

——The result was that after thousands of years, the Night Devil finally carried out the most essential order of the "Fragment of Fall and Sin" for the first time: punishing the wicked.

The work that was arranged by the Source of Change River eight thousand years ago has finally been completed!

Because of this, Night Demon suddenly felt the resonance of the Tao——

The power of transcendence was continuously injected into her body, allowing her level, which had just been raised to level 51 as the limit of the path of transcendence was broken not long ago, to rise rapidly... and even injected the power into Aiwas' body!

A deep purple glow suddenly appeared in the bottom of Aiwas's pupils, which was the embodiment of the complete resonance of the transcendental path. The depth of his path was increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, just like he had done something that perfectly complied with the principles of the path.

Feeling the power filling his body, he was shocked and touched his eyes.

——Evans really didn't know what extraordinary act he had done.

It was just a punishment for three extremely evil ritualists, how could it inexplicably trigger the resonance of the Tao!
"…It seems that the Snake Father wants me to kill them."

Aiwass couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and smiled happily.

At his level, the amount of free experience required to upgrade one level is too much. And it is too slow to upgrade the level just by learning and acquiring extraordinary knowledge. Only by completing the great feat of Tao practice can the level be upgraded rapidly within a few months or even weeks.

"What are you going to do with them, Master?"

Vignes inquired.

"Torture them for a while longer, and then transform them into demons - and then let them turn around and attack the good master. This can be considered as a reward for one's own actions."

Aiwas ordered mercilessly: "Just killing them would be too easy for them."
