Devil's Bible

Chapter 371 I refuse

Nemus had only speculated about this before, but the Twin Demons and Clement were almost certain of it.

“However, it now seems that this so-called Holy Son Completion Ritual is not entirely Clement’s doing. It contains a lot of knowledge from the Demon Lord!” Nemus observed the ritual circle that had undergone drastic changes once again and discovered many new things.

The entire magic circle appears to consist of two types of circles, one facing forward and one facing backward. The objects inside the reversed circle serve as the raw materials, while the objects inside the forward-facing circle possess the qualities that can absorb those materials.

However, in the shadows, there is another hidden magic array.

When a certain point is reached, the two magic arrays will reverse their brightness.

The magic array that was originally visible has been transformed into the dark side, and everything in the dark side has come into the light.

And these people, as the visible circular magic circle reversed, were transferred into the dark world.

“These are very typical characteristics of the Twin Demons.” Nemus had observed many of the Twin Demons’ transformation operations from Kru.

The same applies to this magic circle now.

The combination of overt and covert operations not only deceived Nemus, but also Jin Sheng, who believed himself to be the mastermind behind the magic circle.

"How is this possible?!" Jin Sheng roared in disbelief. He could feel everything about him being drained away. Before long, he would become material, just like the wild animals and plants that had been sacrificed before, to provide some kind of power for this magic array.

"I was about to defeat the Holy Son, I was about to complete myself..." Jin Sheng felt a sense of devastation. He muttered to himself, repeating the fact that he was about to win.

On the other hand, Red Eyes Three didn't have so many thoughts. He didn't have as strong an desire to complete himself and become a Holy Son as Golden Saint.

He now has only one thought in mind: to find an opportunity to explode with Nems.

Previously, he and Jin Sheng and other experimental subjects had obtained the Calamity property from those dangerous creatures, and then began to suppress Nemus step by step.

In that situation, Nemus did not use Saintification, which suggests that Nemus may have already used Saintification in the previous attack and no longer has the ability to use it.

In their view, Nems had virtually no chance of winning.

Given enough time, Nemus will become their material, and at that point, Red-Eyes Three will naturally be able to tolerate it.

But now, Red Eyes Three can't even be patient enough.

He charged straight at Nemus, his three pairs of eyes filled only with hatred.

"Let's die together, Nemus!" The middle pair of eyes in Red Eyes 3 opened completely.

Unlike its previous absorption of light, these eyes are now releasing a large amount of light. The intense energy reaction is even approaching the level of Nemus's sword strike that struck Xihe.

At this moment, Red-Eyed Triple Stats, in terms of numerical value, is only of the Steel type, and its value is still dozens of points lower than that of Sword Saint Nemus.

At this moment, the multiplier of Red Eyes 3 even exceeds the base multiplier of Nemus Xihe to a certain extent.

"The essence of a saint, truly blessed by heaven." Nemus witnessed this scene and had no time to react before being suddenly struck by a blast.

A large amount of light was injected into the surrounding matter in an instant.

The violent explosion swept across almost the entire dark area.

The essential ability of the Eye Saint is "annotation," which allows him to inject his power into a corresponding substance through his gaze, thereby rewriting and changing it.

Red Eye One is a simple injection explosion, while Red Eye Two is to freeze it in place.

Their bloodline origin—Elias the Steadfast—is one that brings things to a standstill, slowing everything down. Unlike them, Elias's abilities can be used on living beings.

However, the Red-Eyed group could only use "Annotation" on inanimate objects such as air.

Red-Eyed Three was different; his eyes had undergone some kind of mutation, and his "writing" was no longer under his control.

The moment he opens his eyes, they absorb the light energy from the surroundings.

Then, once it's almost fully absorbed, it will immediately begin to be injected along the line of sight.

Furthermore, the absorbed light cannot be preserved for long periods. This has resulted in Red-Eyed III consistently lacking stable and consistent combat capabilities.

However, it is precisely for this reason that Red Eye Three has always been protected and cared for by the other Red Eye brothers.

Even if some of the Red-Eyed Brothers enjoy hunting their own kind and using their blood for cultivation, they will still give up Red-Eyed Three.

So he survived to the end.

In sight, Nemus's body exploded, and countless pieces of flesh flew to different places.

Red Eyes Three, blood streaming from the middle two eyes, he himself was severely injured by the explosion and lay on the ground, barely alive.

Regardless, he avenged his brothers...

Before the slight sense of satisfaction that was rising in his heart could take shape, all of Nemus's shredded flesh and corpse pieces emitted light, and then quickly coalesced together to become a new ball of light.

"Body of Light"!
Upon witnessing this scene, Red-Eyed Three froze on the spot, and then a sense of despair welled up in his heart.

"It's my first time using it, and I'm really not used to it yet..." Nemus moved his body slightly, feeling the subtle changes in his body.

The warden's "body of light" and his understanding of faith made Nems realize that he seemed capable of doing the same.

Nems' absolute belief was that he would definitely reach the top.

This belief was absolutely unwavering; even the 'god' of meditation was Nemus himself.

The barrier to entry for many things can sometimes be as simple as a single sentence.

This is at least true for those with talent. After learning the key from the warden, Nemus immediately mastered the 'Body of Light'.

Most importantly, the "Body of Light" extended the connection between Nemus's spiritual power and life force.

The next step is to complete the integration of my own magic body techniques.

"Based on this calculation, the body should also undergo some changes as faith is integrated..." Nemus thought to himself as he walked over to Red Eyes Three's side.

“Sorry, your final act of revenge has failed,” Nems said, +3.

Before Red-Eyes Three could say anything more, Nemus swung his sword, and Red-Eyes Three's head was cleaved in two.

At this moment, Jin Sheng also calmed down a bit.

He suddenly looked at Nems, then stepped back.

After observing his surroundings, he slammed his hands on the ground, and a wooden box rose up from the ground.

He opened the box, and inside was Rosalis, whom Nemus had brought out from the Abyss of Breath.

“Nems, we’re trapped here now,” Jin Sheng said seriously.

"There is only one way to survive, and that is to create a more perfect Holy Son, or rather, a Saint."

“I am willing to provide the Holy Son's Instrumentality Ritual for you to absorb her.”

"This way you might be able to enter the Saintly Transformation again and then break this magic array!"

"Well?" Jin Sheng looked at Naims expectantly, waiting for Naims's answer.

"It is indeed a possibility to escape."

Nems nodded, and a smile appeared on Jin Sheng's face.

"But, I refuse!"
