Chapter 394 Death of a Nun
"This is……

Planes overlap?"

Roy, who was flying in the air, suddenly stopped and looked around.

That is the spiritual world that comes from the spirit. It is invisible to mortal eyes and can only be seen by souls and the spirits of dying people.

In addition, some souls with high status, mental strength and life level may also be able to discover it.

"The gates of hell have truly opened..."

There was a hint of surprise on his face.

Too many people died here, and the spirituality of their souls permeated between heaven and earth, turning into countless wandering souls.

Every bit of it is experiencing the test of hell.

"In legends, heaven, hell, the abyss, and so on, are all like rivers flowing into the sea...

It is the ultimate gathering place of spirituality!

Every wandering soul between heaven and earth must undergo numerous tests, like being selected through a sieve, before entering the right place.

Kindness, beauty, the noble and precious in human nature, sublimated into divinity...

Despicable, ugly, the base and evil in human nature, sinking into animal nature...

These are the origins of angels and demons!
In essence, they are all transformed from thousands of kinds of "virtues" or "evil thoughts"!

As for the devil, the lawful devil... should be inclined towards the worst part of human nature!"

Roy's eyes scanned the visions of Hell.

"But because of the nature of the soul, this screening or examination must begin with the worst...

Only if you are innocent can you go to heaven! "

Soon, he found the body of Sister Windsorbell.

Or should I say, a corpse!

The corpse still had a faint trace of warmth, but it no longer had any energy for life.

……

The nun looked up and saw a dark and eerie forest.

"Am I dead?"

She felt uneasy and suddenly remembered a rumor.

According to the teachings of the Church of Holy Light, after death, people must first pass through hell and undergo layers of trials.

Hell is like a high mountain, but it is upside down.

It is divided into seven layers, symbolizing the seven deadly sins, including the entrance waiting room and the transition layer of the heresy trial in the middle, a total of nine layers.

Each level the soul ascends eliminates one sin, until it reaches the top of the mountain, which is actually the lowest part of the Inverted Mountain.

At that time, the poles will reverse and rise towards heaven.

The passage of time here seems to be completely different from that in the material plane. In a trance, I was guided by a great will in the dark and passed through the forest under the guidance of the soul lamp that was like a ghost fire.

Windsorbell came to the ink-black Styx, looking at the foggy distance, and couldn't help feeling nervous and hesitant.

A ghost-like, translucent old man approached in a dilapidated wooden boat.

"Get on board, nun." The old ferryman seemed to know her and spoke.

Windsor Belle stepped onto the shaking deck and boarded the boat nervously.

The river water instantly began to reflect fragments of her life.

Prayers in church, charity, and some private moments.

The river rippled slightly, and countless pale arms stretched out from under the water, as if trying to grab the broken boat and overturn it.

But in a flash, it passed through like a phantom and then quickly sank.

……

"How is this going?"

On the other side, in the material plane, in the world of Aster.

Roy had a look of surprise on his face, and his eyes seemed to follow the guidance of some spiritual connection and saw where Sister Windsorbell was.

Before his eyes, a scene appeared as if projected on a huge screen.

The nun successfully reached the other side of the River Styx.

In the fog, the sounds of ghosts and wolves howling mixed with the wails of some tortured souls could be heard.

Windsor Bell clasped her hands together and placed them on her chest, praying. A mysterious voice seemed to appear in Roy's ears, a voice that was the will of hell.

“Sister Windsorbell… stands trial.

Because he is a follower of the Lord of Light, the first level will be skipped and the trial of his crimes will begin directly."

The second level is the hell of lust.

The black wind swept across, blowing against the soul.

Roy's gaze lingered on the inky black River Styx, which reflected a glimpse of the nun's life.

"Hmm...it turns out nuns also clamp pillows..."

The illusion is shattered.

The black wind blew across the nun's body, seeming to take away a trace of spirituality.

That is the evil side of human nature.

The nun didn't know what was happening, she just heard the sound of the wind and quickly followed the guidance of the will-o'-the-wisp ahead and took a shortcut.

"The third level, the hell of gluttony!"

The apparition before Roy projected the image of the nun sitting at the dining table.

Every meal she had experienced since she was born had been abstinent.

This level was also passed smoothly.

The fourth level, the Hell of Greed...

The fifth level, the wrathful hell...

The sixth level, the heretic hell...

The seventh level, the hell of violence...

The eighth level, the Hell of Deception...

Sister Windsorbell lived a simple life and had a peaceful temperament, and none of these crimes could be blamed on her.

What ordinary people consider to be the horrific judgment of hell, with all its fire and torture, is but a passing illusion.

Roy watched the entire trial process like a god, and found that after the nun had gone through layers of trials, a small part of her spiritual power was taken away.

That is an inherent flaw in human beings.

Humans are silver-level souls, and are relatively low-level intelligent creatures among the silver-level souls.

Greed, fraud, cowardice, etc., flaws are inevitable.

But through this judgment, the evil, fallen spirituality is being stripped away.

What remains is the kind and beautiful part of human nature.

The nun didn't notice this at first, but as she walked, she suddenly subconsciously raised her hands and looked at them.

The body has become translucent.

But unlike ordinary phantoms, this translucent figure is filled with a divine glow.

This illuminates the whole soul and makes it appear sublime and holy.

From Roy's perspective, the overall weight of Sister Windsorbell's soul had been reduced, but due to the previous layers of tests, it had hardly been deprived of a complete wandering soul, and the overall quality still remained very high.

Roy was surprised: "She is sublimating...her humanity is turning into divinity!
This is also a kind of sanctification!"

Suddenly, I had a deeper understanding of everything I had done before.

……

Unconsciously, the soul emitted a faint white light. Although weak, it was smooth and flawless, and arrived at the ninth level of hell.

This is the final destination of the entire hell, and it is also the hell where "betrayers" are located.

Suddenly, a magnificent voice rang out.

"Those who betray their loved ones, those who betray their relatives and friends...

Those who betrayed their country, those who betrayed their race, those who betrayed their benefactors...

All of these are sins!

However, the most serious sin is to rebel against God!
Sister Windsorbell, you have betrayed your faith and abandoned your God.

I hereby declare you guilty!
From now on, you will be condemned to hell forever!"

Hearing this, Sister Windsorbell turned pale and looked up in disbelief at the hellish demon that suddenly appeared.
