Devil's Bible

"The ability of cause and effect, that piece of clay containing the 'fate' is most likely a record of 'fate' maxims related to cause and effect."

"Observe cause and effect, establish causal connections, and ultimately use cause and effect to achieve your own goals..."

"This is a very standard use of cause and effect."

"This also shows that the other party's fate might be very important..."

Often, standards also imply orthodoxy.

That piece of clay representing destiny was extremely important; this thought echoed in the minds of several saints.

This time, the Goddess of Discipline completely abandoned the possibilities of other worlds, mobilizing personnel from those worlds and expending considerable divine power to open up the crystal wall subsystems, sending these saints over.

This shows that the Goddess of Discipline has basically staked everything she has on this.

Previously, each saint was an extremely important node, serving as a medium for the gods to interfere with the material plane. They would rarely appear in groups of three or more, as that would represent a waste of nodes.

In fact, if the God of Discipline hadn't been in slumber, the Hidden Saint wouldn't have been able to travel with the other Saint.

The value of a saint lies in the pivotal moment, not in their own power.

This is something that Nemes currently lacks.

Although the material plane may not seem powerful, it is the foundation of this world.

The material plane and the outer plane are opposed to each other, but according to alchemy, they influence each other.

In this situation, any deity who ignores the material plane will find themselves in trouble.

Nemus possesses a large number of golden-type subordinates, and the subordinates he trained before are all capable of standing on their own.

But the problem remains the same: their strength can only be used for defense, and it's difficult for them to expand their offense.

Without the Saint node, it would be very difficult for Nemus to inject his divine power into the material plane.

Previously, Nems could only rely on faith networks to transmit divine power through faith connections.

Now that Nemus has become an ancient god, his divine power can be generated from changes. However, changes in the material plane are dispersed, and the divine power generated from changes in a region is limited and not very efficient.

Therefore, saints still have a necessary existence.

The time Nemus spent as a god was indeed too short; it was practically impossible to cultivate a true saint in such a short time through the normal process.

Furthermore, Nemus's path is indeed not very suitable for cultivating saints.

A saint needs to have a soul that is pure to the extreme, yet he accepts an external power.

This is not a fictional path. Those who understand fictional paths cannot do this, while those who do not understand them cannot become saints.

It can be said that, unless one is a person who distorts the abstract, it is difficult for someone who truly practices the way of fiction to become a saint.

Therefore, Nemus basically gave up on cultivating saints and planned to create the true saints he envisioned, the true intermediate stage between the golden race and the mythical race.

Before that, the long-distance interference with the material plane still depends on the Dragonborn and the Kru.

After a brief pause, Avis escaped the spatial domain and landed in the material plane.

Although the fragments of the spacetime artifact could still carry him away, he had no other means of escape within the spatial domain, a layer of spacetime.

Once inside, he has no room to maneuver; once caught, death is the only outcome.

Aves has no choice but to leave.

This is not a judgment based on association, but a rational analysis based on self-awareness.

Avis leaped out of the spatial interlayer and found himself suspended in mid-air. Affected by gravity, he plummeted rapidly, and during this process, several figures enveloped in white light appeared as they passed through the space.

They looked at Avis, and then a large amount of holy power spread out. Using the holy power as a node, a terrifying force was about to descend.

But the next moment, something seemed to change around them, and the power that was being transmitted seemed to be drawn into another space-time.

A terrifying force, enough to shake one's very soul, erupted in the distance.

Before Avis could react, the saints had already taken action.

Without any hesitation, as if nothing had happened, they surrounded Avis from several directions in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, one of the saints reached out and grabbed something.

The surrounding space felt tight. Avis secretly activated the artifact fragment, but he was unable to jump through space.

The space felt completely blocked; there was no way out.

It can only be said that the Sage was very familiar with these methods and immediately took countermeasures, blocking all of Avis's escape routes.

Seeing this, Avis could only start counting down in his mind...

The saints have arrived before us.

But the next moment, all the saints completely forgot about Avis's existence.

By severing its connection with light and other things using stones, Avis had eliminated its own existence.

When cause and effect do not exist, it becomes difficult for others to observe specific gazes.

The saints were all stunned for a moment. The causal ability was too strange, and for a moment they even forgot that they had Avis as a target.

However, being saints after all, they immediately made adjustments. Although causal abilities were powerful, they could not completely interfere with them.

2
The consciousness broke through the blockade and quickly located Avis's presence.

But what appeared before them, besides Avis, was something that looked like the moon.

They instinctively attacked, only to find that all their attacks landed on the moon.

The moon rippled like water, and most of the attacks missed their mark.

Divine Art: Moon in the Water

By integrating spirituality, a special divine art is performed using spirituality. This divine art is very powerful; even a saint was immediately bewitched and unable to break through it.

1
Avis no longer had any means to resist the Saint. Whether it was the broken connection, fragments of divine artifacts, or special divine arts, these were things that ordinary Gold Saints could not possess.

Avis's actions only allowed him to hold out for a few more seconds against these saints.

In that final second, Avis had no other options left. The Saint had already arrived before him, his holy power surging forth, ready to pulverize his body.

It was at this moment that spacetime began to fluctuate.

The expressions of the saints changed slightly, but they did not stop what they were doing.

Their divine power was united, and then quickly formed a commandment.

The changes in time and space were forcibly stopped.

The saints looked solemn. The reason they had taken so long to capture Avis was because they needed to maintain the special ritual.

The Goddess of Discipline had read Nemus's memories and was naturally aware of the existence of the Dragonborn, thus having taken precautions against this move long ago. (End of Chapter)
