Devil's Bible

The large hand is gray overall, appearing as a hazy gray mass.

The moment I saw this giant hand, I had a feeling that I would be completely swallowed up by it, and that my life and soul would be sucked away by it.

This is because it's not low yet; there's still some distance between the hand that rises from the ground and reaches out to grab it.

"It seems I won't be able to keep all of you here today." Seeing this, Nemus sensed the taboo spreading. Not fully aware of it, he looked away and smiled slightly at the church members.

Nemus's goal is not just the people in the church. For the church, the top-tier Golden Seeds can die, as long as it is not a large-scale death, it will basically only cause some turmoil.

These upheavals will not pose a major crisis to the church. At most, they will expose weaknesses that could allow other orthodox churches or cults and demons to seize some territory.

These things are important, but not necessary.

Because floating whales reproduce every year, sometimes hundreds more can be produced annually.

Although the chances of it dying out are high, if it survives, it will create a sky base for millions of people to live in decades later.

As long as there is a population and resources produced by the floating whales, the golden seed can grow over time.

Therefore, simply killing some top-tier golden seeds can strike at the church and plunge it into a temporary power struggle, but it is not enough!
What Nemes needs is the death of the saint.

Saints are the Church's most powerful force.

They are key personnel who ensure the normal operation of the church.

Every saint is the Church's most precious treasure.

The death of any one of them would anger the gods.

If a saint could be born, the gods might be pleased for a long time.

Therefore, if one truly wants to strike at the church, causing problems in its operation, and thus attacking the deity behind the church, the best option is to target the saints.

"What a pity." Nems felt he had been too greedy.

"The Holy Walkers didn't summon a Saint first," Nemus sighed. They had mastered two Saint summoning spells in total.

One of the secret incantations is in the hands of the Holy Walker, while the other is in the hands of the Holy Son; it is the very incantation that the Hidden Saint placed on the Sword of War.

The hidden saint is injured and not fully recovered yet. As long as we make some arrangements beforehand and summon him, we can kill him.

So Nems was greedy.

"I wonder which saint the secret spell the Holy Walker holds is aimed at." Nemus thought to himself as he glanced at the Hand of Calamity rapidly approaching from the ground.

A few seconds later, the hand will approach.

The forbidden aura emanating from it is extremely strong; even Nemus in his current state could very likely be seriously injured because of this hand.

The earthly calamity that forced the gods to abandon the earth and transfer people to the back of a floating whale could not be taken too seriously.

Look at the church members who are gathering towards the bone ship.

“If you want to run, at least one of you will have to stay behind!” Nemus said, his sword already thrusting out.

Sword of Fortune: Light-Eyed Falcon!

He used the sword blade to cleave through space, and then used his entire body to complete the spatial crossing.

During this process, the world-destroying power of the World-Devouring Whale and the holy power of the Holy Walker kept colliding, causing the space to fluctuate constantly and forming numerous obstacles.

However, Nemus seemed to ignore these distractions, and when he reappeared, he was already precisely near the bone ship. Seeing this, Hayes' eyes widened, and he quickly steered the bone ship to fly to the side.

And he instantly understood the implication in Naims's words that at least one person was left behind.

The calamity is looming below; if we don't escape in these few seconds, we will have to face this terrifying hand head-on.

The bone ship is the key to escape; to survive, someone must sacrifice themselves to intercept Nemus.

Otherwise, Nemus could have easily dragged everyone, along with the ship, into the clutches of that calamity-ridden hand, and then, with the demon lord's strong adaptability to forbidden things, dragged them all to their deaths.

This is not complicated; they can figure it out in an instant with their intelligence.

But the question is—who will go?
Hayes's gaze first fell on the Holy Walker.

The saints demand 'high moral standards' from others all day long, but now that the time for sacrifice has come, will the saints only demand it from others?
However, the Holy Walker did not move at this moment. He clenched his hands, showing no intention of explaining.

Or perhaps it's the others like Big, Adrian, and Alice who haven't boarded the bone ship yet, or the missing Andron?

But another person made the exact opposite decision to the Holy Walker!

The Holy Son, wielding the Sword of War, charged forward, having already entered the Saintly Transformation. At the same time, under the dire circumstances, the power of legend erupted, and he once again appeared before the world in his perfect saintly form.

Holy Mandate - Phoenix Cry!

With the help of the holy power propelled by the Holy Walker, the Holy Son's Phoenix Cry was also pushed to its limit.

However, Nemus would never be restrained by the Holy Spirit like other demons, and the sword in his hand was also wielded with the relevant power.

The two swords clashed, and the next moment, the sound of sword energy resounded continuously.

Faced with this situation, Hayes dared not linger for even a moment and steered the bone ship to fly away quickly.

At that very moment, on the Azure Whale, Andron, who had disappeared, quietly reappeared and threw out a die.

The rolling die fell quickly, revealing the number five on one side.

"Fate Dice - Five": When a five appears, fate becomes clear in one's eyes, and one can manipulate the changes in fate to a certain extent by using five elements as a price.

Looking at those five dots, Andron laughed: "It seems fate is still on my side!"

As he spoke, Andron threw away his two eyes, most of his mental energy, a special soul he had collected, and an unborn human embryo.

The moment these five elements landed, the bone ship, which was struggling to move, seemed to receive some kind of assistance.

The chaotic power that was originally formed by the collision between the World-Devouring Whale and the divine power rapidly converged at this moment, forming an energy tide that fell on the bone ship.

The bone ship was propelled, its orientation changed, and its speed greatly increased, propelling it directly toward the Azure Whale.

Big, Adrian, and Alice followed behind the bone ship, also affected by the energy tide, and quickly headed towards the Azure Whale.

It's just that because everyone's body shape is different, the force they receive is different, and the final direction of the flow also changes.

Meanwhile, the 'battle' between Nemus and the Holy Son has also ended.

Nemus flashed out, leaving the Holy Son alone to face the calamity's massive hand.

The calamity's massive hand grasped, then, sensing the Azure Whale, it didn't linger but slowly descended to the earth.

Faintly, one could see a sacred light shimmering within. (End of Chapter)
