Devil's Bible

Even if the old priest immediately stopped activating the Blood Mark, those villagers, even the young children, would only live for a few more years at most.

This is the price the old pastor pays for ignoring the harm time and time again.

"I am a demon, and so are you!"

"Evil moves with me,"

"Desire swells here,"

“Entangled by the will of evil,”

"The Eye of the Abyss watches,"

“Unforgivable sinners,”

"In the name of Nemes, may you be condemned to eternal damnation!"

In despair, the old pastor, who was prepared to fight to the death, froze at this moment.

Nemus was surrounded by the aura of a demon, but he did not use it to cast any demonic spells.

Instead, he drew the aura of those demons towards himself.

Then he invoked the demon's abyssal authority—the Fall.

Demons need things like flesh and soul to ascend to the next level. Lesser demons don't need to consider quality when they ascend to become full demons. As long as they accumulate enough, they can call on the will of the abyss to assist in the ascension.

Official demons and variant demons are different.

To advance to a higher level of demon requires high-quality flesh and soul.

But to swallow it whole would be too wasteful, so he gained the power of corruption from the abyss.

The demons tempt those who possess high-quality flesh and soul to fall into depravity.

When their souls are filled with desire and their bodies are entangled in sin, they can summon the abyss, which will transform them into demons, thus granting them the abyss's reward.

However, this often requires the devil to plan for a long time to lure them in.

"How is this possible? How could I fall into the abyss and be transformed into a demon without being seduced?!" The old priest retreated frantically, activating the Blood Mark to transfer the demonic aura.

"I am a saint destined for heaven; I cannot possibly fall into the abyss!!!!"

However, the transfer had already failed, and the old pastor's body began to change.

The despairing reality forced the old pastor to confront everything.

Cuckoo!

Chapter 66 is neither sacred nor preceptual.

"How did I become like this?" As if he had been in a long dream, the old pastor looked at his own existence.

A great deal of sin clung to him, and the speed at which it combined with the demonic aura far exceeded his expectations.

He knew he was sinful, but he constantly reminded himself of God's guidance that completing the experiment would atone for his sins.

Therefore, in his mind, his sins would disappear and be redeemed.

Even though I haven't finished the experiment yet, God's guidance will still be there, and I will certainly not fall into demonic ways!

Before the will of the abyss could intervene, the old priest's transformation was already close to the level of a bloodline-transformation, solely due to the demonic aura emanating from Nemus and a slight activation of his authority.

The facts shattered all illusions.

"So, I've become no different from a demon?" The old priest looked at Nemus standing in front of him, at the somewhat familiar face, but his thoughts couldn't help but drift back to the past.

The moment the experiment ended, his disciple, Ron, Neil's father, went mad.

For a long time, Ron had comforted himself by telling himself that they were only creating sins temporarily, and that once the experiment was over, they would be able to cleanse themselves of their sins and benefit the world.

However, the experiment failed.

As Ron and his wife were disposing of obsolete test subjects and burying the body of a five-year-old child, they heard news from their colleagues outside that Neil, who was the same age, was waiting for them to come home at the door of their office area.

At that moment, Ron later told the old priest that he had a vision, and the corpse in the vision was Nell.

So the moment Ron saw his wife burying the body, he attacked her.

Once he regained his senses, Ron did not stop his attacks; instead, he continued to attack other staff members.

In the ensuing chaos, Ron was seriously injured.

The old pastor rushed over and saw his disciple one last time.

"The church didn't punish us at all. I can no longer look at the world and myself the same way."

"The existence of this experiment is the biggest problem, and we who have caused all these problems are beyond redemption."

The old pastor didn't listen carefully at the time; he simply used his divine magic to heal Ron.

then……

“That’s not how it works!” the old pastor suddenly retorted. “I had no idea that Dartment would use Ron’s personal belongings to continue his experiments!”

"I just feel that I'm the one who hurt Ron. I've comforted him time and time again, letting him continue the experiments."

"So I was too ashamed to see him anymore."

As the old pastor spoke, suddenly a large number of hive beast blood vessels throbbed, and the blood vessels quickly pierced into his body.

Some of the blood vessels were clinging to a vial of medicine on the old priest, extracting all the liquid from it, and injecting it into their own bodies.

At the same time, the old pastor was also urging his own spiritual power to fight against his demonization.

A powerful, sacred energy emanated from his body.

The near-complete demonization was paused at this moment.

Then the old pastor's body suddenly began to burn violently, and his demon-like black scales were burned away almost instantly.

It revealed the flesh and blood beneath it, which resembled lava.

Nemus raised an eyebrow and swung his sword tentatively.

The blade sliced ​​through the old priest, easily cutting through his flesh.

However, this small amount of damage is not enough to cause it any harm.

Like flowing magma, flesh and blood rapidly merged, and then the flames grew even more intense.

Then the old pastor had completely transformed into a 'man of light'.

Every part of its body shone with a golden-white glow, like coal burning to its fullest in a furnace.

“He is like a sage, walking in this world.”

"Shed the human form, reveal the truth."

"Its flesh is golden yellow, and its blood is golden yellow."

"It is as if it possesses divine power, and one is filled with longing for it."

The so-called saint is something similar to this.

Nems stepped back and did not probe further.

The situation is now clear: the old pastor finally recognized his own existence at the moment when he was possessed by the devil.

His response to Naim's rebuttal wasn't actually an explanation to Naim, but rather a reminder to himself not to be influenced by others' words.

That is the real temptation of the devil. Once you start to believe that you are such a hypocrite, that you are a selfish and petty person, then the last bit of humanity will disappear.

Only when it is demonized can it be considered truly complete.

“I need to thank you, Nemus…” the ‘Saint’ said, raising his hand and roughly estimating that he had forty-two seconds left.

Forty-two seconds later, the bloodline spell "Holy Blood Ascension" that he activated by activating his bloodline will reach its limit, after which he will be burned to ashes.

He figured out his lifelong experimental research and then applied it to himself.

So-called saints are never created through bloodline experiments.

Therefore, no matter how many experiments are conducted, the blood of the saint cannot create a true saint.

"You made me realize that only the ultimate faith, only the awakening of the soul to its fullest extent, can bear the sacred."

This is why most churches of God primarily use sacred magic in their pastors.

Faith inherently possesses a sacred element.

The key to sainthood is not the power bestowed by God. First, one must possess the qualifications to bear divinity, and then God will bestow power upon one to create a saint.

"As expected, there is a problem with the God of Discipline."

"Of course, it's also related to my situation."

Although there were only forty-two seconds, the old pastor was in no hurry to make a move.

He was even explaining his findings to Nems.

Generally, when a soul capable of carrying a sacred spirit appears, the god that the soul worships will sense it and will usually arrive immediately to bestow power.

However, the God of Discipline remained unmoved.

This only shows that the problem with the God of Discipline is particularly serious.

This also shows that the old pastor at this moment was not a true saint.

He only came to understand his sins and mistakes in despair, and stopped that self-contradiction.

Then, using the Holy Blood Potion he had researched, he forcibly stimulated and refined the potential of his demonized body.

He then poured the acquired divine power into his soul, thus entering a temporary state of enlightenment.

"Neither sacred nor precept-based."

The old pastor's evaluation of the church now also fell upon himself.

“Then for the sake of the other innocent people, I have decided to kill you, Nemus!” the old pastor solemnly declared. “You are the last life I will kill after I have taken myself away.”

"At least you've made this final chapter a little less boring." Nemus could feel the intense threat emanating from the old priest.

But at that moment, Nemus smiled.

"Of course, I also want to thank you for probing the current state of the God of Discipline for me."

"It allows me to reclaim what I once had."

As Nemus spoke, a large amount of faith power flowed through Nemus's body.

Wow!

Chapter 67 An Yin, and the Self-Agreement!

With a powerful surge of soul energy combined with the power of faith, Nemus activated the divine magic he had mastered.

As a paladin, Nemus had little mastery of divine magic, but this particular divine magic was so clear that he had already learned it.

Faith forms a magic array, and the spirit communicates with the void.

An aura of sacred precepts flowed through the air.

Even the old priest, who had entered a pseudo-saint state, was stunned at this moment, and asked incredulously, "?"

It's not an exaggeration to say that demons possess divine magic. Faith is not something that cannot be stolen; some demons can cast certain divine spells by stealing faith.

But isn't this going a bit too far?

Because the divine spell Nemus is currently casting is called—

Divine Spell: Summon Prayer Angel!

Behind Nems, in the collapsed church, the statue of the God of Discipline, with its severed arm and fallen, faintly emitted a light.

Compared to the old pastor who had stood in front of the collapsed church earlier, Nemes now seemed more like God's spokesperson.

Following the power of the divine magic, the spirit leaped rapidly, quickly finding the corresponding element it needed.

With the targeted search, Nemus sensed a prayer angel who was not in the divine realm, but was wandering alone in the astral plane.

The power of summoning began to emerge, and a magic circle appeared in the astral plane as well. The prayer angel was activated and then passed through the barrier.

Then a prayer angel appeared beside Nemus.
