Devil's Bible

Chapter 360 Xihe
Meanwhile, Clement had no intention of leaving.

His spirit and will began to fluctuate violently at this moment.

Then the person's entire body began to show signs of photonization.

This is a manifestation of the intense conflict between spirit and belief during the Guanghua period.

Clement is ill, with a very serious mental illness.

Under the influence of the twin demons, Clement made choices time and time again, until finally, he chose to silence a group of children who originally regarded him as their benefactor.

After that, he also particularly liked to make others make 'choices,' and these choices often resulted in mutual destruction.

For example, when he was researching the Holy Son Project, there was that flesh-and-blood monster that he released to attract the church's attention, while simultaneously setting a trap for the Holy Son Nemus.

The flesh and blood on its body can drive the parasitized people to kill each other through the instinct of hunger and pain, making them make a choice.

They feed others to the meat, then rapidly decline morally, and finally, in a choice, they kill each other.

The same applies to the other experimental subjects.

The Red-Eyed series, countless experimental subjects, began to kill each other under his orders due to insufficient resources.

Looking at those people stripped of all morality, naked in appearance, he could feel a kind of pleasure that people themselves have no noble qualities.

Clement loved this feeling; watching others' moral decline made even their transformation seem smoother.

This pathological condition constituted most of Clement's life experience.

So after discovering that Balthazar's taboo might be the type that perfectly suited him, Clement felt that his only purpose in life was to acquire this taboo.

Clement's body writhed, and then a large number of imps appeared, making his body look like a relief made up of countless children's bodies.

The details of the faces and bodies in each of the 'reliefs' are very clear, and even the faces of the children are lifelike.

These are the children that Clement saved and then killed to silence them.

Clement, now a bloated monster, charged madly toward Balthazar.

"Give me your soul!!!" Clement roared in a frenzy.

Balthazar on the other side was equally insane.

His mind was completely occupied by the battle.

Nemus watched the two people descend into madness, his sword twirling slightly in his hand.

Nems has no intention of letting go of either Balthazar, the sinful soul, or Clement.

Balthazar's sinful spirit might be able to help his original body break through its limitations, but of course, it's only a possibility.

After all, knowing that his sinful soul was formed by the abyss, and then sacrificing it to the will of the abyss, it is uncertain whether he will receive a reward.

But in any case, this is a good thing, and it's necessary to get your hands on it.

Next is Clement.

Clement is very strong, but the reason he is not performing well right now is largely because his mental state is unstable due to his transformation period.

A value of 400 might only yield around 200.

But now things are different. With Clement going completely insane, his mental problems have actually improved, and his strength has almost doubled.

One thing that was clear from the beginning was that most spellcasters were producers.

Their value lies not in fighting, but in production and creation.

For example, the flesh-and-blood monsters, Red Eyes, and Golden Saints—these experimental subjects were all secretly cultivated by Clement.

Although a large amount of resources from the Cult of the Devil were used, most of the knowledge and technology were controlled by Clement.

In addition, those rituals that imbue people with calamity should have originated from Clement's taboo research.

This is also a very important technology.

These technologies are where Clement's value lies.

At that moment, Balthazar and Clement, like two ghosts, charged towards Nemus one after the other. Numerous connections of fate appeared in Nemus's eyes.

He then gradually set his sights on a goal.

"Coincidentally, a special sword technique has just been developed."

"Even I couldn't truly control this move; I only managed to complete three-tenths of it."

"But I think its power should be sufficient!"

As his thoughts continued to operate in this way, Nemus's divine attributes reached their peak during the process of continuous sublimation.

The originally white light was now tinged with a layer of gold.

He raised his sword as if he were raising the sun.

A rope appeared behind Nems.

Then these ropes twisted and gradually formed a peculiar structure.

Under that structure, the rope rotates, and a knot appears.

However, the knot was not locked; it was untied the moment it was formed.

However, the untied rope, following its own structure, formed a knot once more in the next moment.

In an instant, the light from the sword in Nemus's hand dissipated.

Instead of retreating, Nems charged forward.

The blazing, sacred blade swung, and at the instant the blade moved, three blazing platinum fireballs appeared in the sky.

By using knotted ropes to record events, the same thing can be quickly recorded and then quickly released without taking up space in the knotted rope record-keeping system.

Because of this continuous rope structure, these three fireballs will appear simultaneously as time changes.

Of course, this does not mean that Nemes can actually replicate the same thing infinitely in this way.

Even these replicated things, because the recording time is very short, exist for only a very short time, just a moment.

However, it was in this instant that Nems took advantage of.

As the sword flashed, all the sacred heat was channeled.

The Forest Sword, which could be considered a treasured sword, quickly melted into a semi-melted orange-yellow state as this power surged in.

The moment the molten blade was swung, all the heat burst forth.

Outbreak and concentration, if they occur at the same time, are two somewhat contradictory concepts.

However, at this moment, they are combined perfectly.

The three fireballs vanished in an instant, all their power concentrated on the blade in Nemus's hand.

But this force is blossoming and erupting.

The forces that should have created conflict were transformed very smoothly, becoming both concentrated and explosive.

At that moment, Balthazar, who was facing the sword head-on, saw the orange-yellow reflection of the sword in his crimson pupils, and then he seemed to realize something.

This is not a regression of thought, but rather a mental disorientation caused by the passage of time.

Focus on this one sword strike, this one point.

The outbreak, however, occurs over time.

The cleansed linen robes on Balthazar's body immediately began to burn, manifesting cause and effect for him.

However, the intense heat was not just temporary; the passage of time also played a role.

This is——

Sword of Fortune - Xihe!
