Devil's Bible

Nemus squinted at DiNai, who had completed his ultimate evolution and was just one step away from it.

"You seem to care about me too much." Nemus had no choice but to use a secret technique to briefly break through the limitations of his [Swordsmanship].

With a series of sword strikes, Nemus cleaved Moro into countless pieces.

Then the power of the sword extends from the realm of reality into the concept of life and death, aiming to annihilate the existence of Moro.

Nemus's swordsmanship is not much weaker than Dina's alchemy.

If Dina hasn't reached the level of Mythical Alchemy, then Nemus's swordsmanship and Moro's alchemy should be on par.

Now, Dina has the upper hand.

This is normal. Although Dina has not made much progress in the past few hundred years, his alchemical research over these centuries has led him to make too many mistakes.

Even incorrect perceptions can be a form of accumulation.

With hundreds of years of accumulated experience, it's normal that his skills entered the realm of mythology ahead of others.

Nemus's superior swordsmanship allowed him to swiftly kill Moro.

But as he went deeper, Nemus began to feel the resistance.

Moro's existence is deeply intertwined with the entire alchemical ritual.

He himself is a crucial part of it all.

Although 'Moro's' body was killed, his existence was still functioning.

The secret technique of "The Cost of Numbers" was infused with alchemical rituals and then rapidly deepened, transforming into another, more advanced art.

Equivalent exchange!
One of the core truths of alchemy is that everything can be exchanged for its equivalent value.

Therefore, applying this truth to combat means taking it a step further and using force to interfere with everything in the world.

At this moment, Moro's existence was like a punch landing on his own 'death,' and then a further attack on the 'fact' of being stabbed.

In this way, Moro reversed his fate and was reborn in front of Nemus.

The next moment, he threw a punch at Nemes.

In Nems' eyes, this became a deal.

The other party wanted to use his punch to 'exchange' Nems's life.

The deal had already begun before the punch even landed.

Nemus could sense the compulsion inherent in this transaction under the alchemical ritual.

It was as if Nemes would be killed by Moro if he threw that punch.

However, at this moment, Dina's attention was not on this matter.

Nems' earlier words echoed in his mind.

“I care about you too much…” China couldn’t help but start thinking.

Although he is a true spirit, he is essentially a fusion of two losers.

With two failures, China's perception of her personality inevitably changed.

He could act perfectly normal with other people, but he couldn't help but feel fear towards a 'True Spirit' like Nemus.

He was afraid of failing again.

A single failure provides an excuse for the sun god's first-mover advantage.

The second failure provided an excuse that the sun god had created a powerful momentum.

If they fail again against Nemes the third time, then much of their necessity for existence will be erased.

This fear caused Dina to focus most of her attention on Nemus.

He ordered his men to besiege his subordinates, and had Moro keep an eye on him.

All of their fighting strength was suppressing him.

In this situation, he did indeed overlook a lot of things.

“Lord of the city…and…” Dina’s attention quickly spread, and then she saw the Lord of the city.

Besides, many others who entered the [Ghoul Incident] have undergone drastic changes. "It's because of the previous infusion of the aura of the Netherworld Corpses..." Dina immediately realized the reason.

After these people entered the [Ghoul Incident], Nemus infused them with the aura of the Netherworld Corpse, which caused their memories of their 'past lives' to return.

Countless memories from different eras flooded their minds, making them unusually quiet until then.

With just a few thought processes, Dina was able to follow Nemus's train of thought.

Dina's current strength lies in one aspect: his alchemy skills, Mythical Alchemy, have surpassed Nemus's swordsmanship.

On the other hand, there is the alchemical ritual built upon Dartmenli's corpse.

The entire ceremony was exceptionally complex, with multiple layers of different alchemical rituals nested within each other.

For example, card systems, refresh systems, purification systems...

The various systems are simply different alchemical rituals.

These rituals are intertwined, yet primarily focused on Dina's individual existence.

Because Dina used a portion of the Time Godhood as the core and as an equivalent, she suppressed the entire ritual and firmly grasped the sovereignty of the Silver City.

The other part of the sovereignty over the Silver City is in the hands of Nemus.

That was something Nemus inherited from Dartmenley through a blood curse.

The key to this thing is that it was forged by Dartmenli.

However, at this moment, Dina's expression became somewhat agitated. He looked at Nemus, his eyes filled with anger: "You actually... you actually granted access to these memory entities?!"

Dina's mind was filled with incomprehension, and she even involuntarily felt insulted.

He went to great lengths to find the silver remnants, which he then refined into the Philosopher's Stone.

This is a broad road leading to the mythical race, and even Dartmenley suffered the calamities along the way.

In other words, the Philosopher's Stone is now a pure victory.

However, Nems, who obtained this portion of the fruit, did not keep it for himself, but instead distributed it to these 'refreshers'.

It's called a "refresher," but in reality, it doesn't even count as a human being.

They are merely a memory, a memory structure built upon memories.

He could not accept that these people shared sovereignty over the Philosopher's Stone with him.

"Is there a problem with this?" Nemus looked at Dina, becoming increasingly aware of the gap between the two.

From a slight deviation to a complete difference, the two people's personalities, beliefs, and perceptions have long since diverged.

Therefore, Dina did not think of this, which is why she failed to defend against it.

One by one, the refreshed people stood up, and the once efficient operation of the entire Silver City was severely stalled at this moment.

Because these people are seizing the one and only opportunity they've earned through countless lifetimes.

They use the Philosopher's Stone to complete their own existence.

Each time it is sublimated, each time it is completed.

Although the maximum capacity of the Philosopher's Stone was not consumed, only its basic abilities were utilized.

However, at this time, it severely disrupted the operation of the alchemical ritual.

At this crucial moment, the city lord's gaze fell upon the Lord of the Desolate Tomb.

At this moment, the Lord of the Desolate Tomb had his eyes closed, and all the things he had forgotten in the past were rapidly surfacing.

He looked at Dina, then stared intently at her.

"You deserve to die!!!" The black robe of the Lord of the Desolate Tomb shattered with his roar.

Its true colors were then revealed.

That was a face that Nems was relatively familiar with.
