Full-Time Magister: Summoning Eight Demons at the Start

Chapter 126 Dark Demon God

128.

……

North City.

Having made up their minds to take a gamble, Han Ji and his group have assembled the mage team heading towards the Abyss of Evil, ready to charge out at any time.

"So, the High Magic Association would rather see this ancient capital destroyed than let those few grandsons go unpunished?"

Lu Cheng reappeared, with Ling Xi beside him.

"I'm also very sorry, but there's nothing I can do to change it." Han Ji's face showed a hint of melancholy.

The Supreme Magic Association may have considered more factors, but in the end, they abandoned the ancient capital.

"So, you're now choosing to gamble on luck?" Lu Cheng said.

"Let's see if that ancient king, who has been gone for a thousand years, will show mercy?"

"This is the only option we have right now," Han Ji said helplessly.

Not gambling means certain death, but taking a gamble gives you at least a glimmer of hope.

As for Lü Cheng, he did consider using force, but forbidden techniques are inherently dangerous, and one wrong move could send the ancient capital to its doom.

"Brother Cheng, what's your plan?" Mo Fan didn't think Lü Cheng was just making sarcastic remarks; he wasn't that kind of person.

“A method that might make me the center of attention worldwide.” Lu Cheng beckoned, and a cloud of black mist appeared, with Dao Long, wielding a dark staff, landing on the ground.

Looking at the eerie old man in front of him, Han Ji felt a chill run down his spine.

Such a strong sense of darkness!

"Long time no see, kid." Dao Long looked at Mo Fan.

This is his first successful experiment involving a demon. The power of dragons and wolves has merged, and the demon Yazi is being conceived within this kid!

"You...know me?" Mo Fan couldn't help but take a step back.

"I was the one who saved your life back then," Daolong said.

"Save me?" Mo Fan was taken aback.

"You were... at Dongting Lake?"

That's it! It's that aura that terrifies him!

He had no recollection of it, but his body did!

His body trembled after sensing the aura emanating from this person!

"Excuse me, who are you?" Han Ji looked at Dao Long with some wariness.

This dark aura is truly ominous!

He was completely different from any other shadow mage he had ever encountered!

And this old man doesn't look like a good person at all!

"I am Daolong, you may call me the Dark Archmage, and also the chief spokesperson of the Dark God walking among humans," Daolong said.

"Darkness... Demon God?" Han Ji frowned.

"what is that?"

“You don’t need to know that much.” Daolong forcefully shoved his staff into the ground.

"All you need to do is cooperate with me and summon the demon god!"

Han Ji looked at Lü Cheng and led him aside.

Is this person trustworthy?

“He taught me all my forbidden dark arts,” Lu Cheng shrugged.

"Also, you know about the demon-related experiments, right?"

Han Ji's expression changed slightly. "What happened in Jinlin Wasteland before?"

“Mo Fan was used as a test subject and almost died; he saved him,” Lü Cheng said.

"What does he want?" Han Ji asked.

"Faith." Daolong's emotionless voice drifted over.

"The descent of the demon god requires the call of believers."

Faith, like emotions, needs the right timing and a suitable stimulus.

Even if a person who has no worries about food and clothing prays to gods and Buddhas, they will not have any strong desires.

However, when a person is about to starve to death, a person who has nowhere else to turn, a person in despair, and a hope for survival is presented to him, whatever that hope may be, he will hold on to it tightly!

The same applies to faith!

This ancient capital is currently shrouded in a thick atmosphere of despair. At such a time, giving these millions of people a little hope can ignite an extremely powerful force of faith!

Just as the most dazzling light is the one that bursts forth in the darkness.

Only hope born from despair can truly unite people's hearts!

Faith is about quality, not quantity!

The power of faith that a devout believer can inspire can even exceed that of thousands or tens of thousands of wavering, false believers.

For Lü Cheng's soul to officially enter its growth phase and safely devour that emperor-level soul, it needs this power of faith as an aid!

Only by undergoing the baptism of this power of faith can Lü Cheng become a true demon god!

"A follower of the Demon God?" Han Ji's expression darkened slightly.

"What's the price?"

He's a dark demon god, how could he be a good person?

Moreover, isn't this "dark faith" just a trick of the Black Vatican?

Salam unleashed a catastrophe in an attempt to become a god, wasn't it all for this so-called evil power of faith?

"That depends on you," Daolong said.

"The demon god is capricious. If your faith is sincere enough, and the demon god is in a good mood, he will naturally choose to protect his followers after he comes out. But if your faith is not firm and you anger the demon god, he may get angry and devour all these false followers."

"Swallowed it?" Han Ji's expression froze.

"There are always risks involved," Daolong said.

"Anyway, you have no other choice now, are you just waiting to die?"

"Should we take one last gamble?"

"Even if the demon you summon is the evil you fear, or even chooses to kill you all, in a sense, you have decided your own life and death, haven't you?"

"..."

"Please allow me to consider it." Han Ji turned around and walked towards the other senior executives.

This is a very important matter, and he needs to discuss it with everyone.

No, he wants the whole city to decide this matter themselves!

"Um... Archmage, the Dark God you mentioned, could it be some kind of evil god?" Mo Fan asked with some doubt.

“That depends on how you define God,” Daolong said.

"If you think he is good, then he is good; if you think he is an evil god, then he is an evil god."

God, what is God?

There was no God in this world, but as more people believed in Him, God came into being!

The concept of "god" was given by humans, just like the Eight Immortals, who are called immortal gods by humans!

In reality, the Eight Immortals, like the Eight Great Demons, were simply powerful beings, only they did different things.

The Eight Immortals possessed immense power and sided with humanity, which is why they were revered as deities by humankind!

However, there is one point that many people have misunderstood.

Gods don't need believers; believers need gods!

They were revered as gods by weak humans because of their power, not because they were revered as gods.

Those beings that can be revered as gods by humans have no need for any faith.

The same goes for the eight demons. The reason why the Holy Lord is not interested in human faith is because that stuff is useless to him. Moreover, that old guy looks down on beings who become powerful by relying on the power of faith!

The Dark King who was tricked to death by the Holy Lord was the one who pushed himself onto the altar by distorting a large amount of faith in the human world with evil power!

Therefore, it was not accidental, but inevitable, for the Holy Lord to choose to target the Dark King named Wen Tai first after entering the Dark Dimension!

That old man has a special skill: he can effectively counter beings who rely on the power of faith as their foundation!

The Holy Lord has just left Hell and is still bound by the contract. Even if he is free from the constraints after going to the Dark Dimension, it will take a long time to restore his power to its former level.

In order to quickly establish a foothold, the Holy Lord chose the one he was most confident in.
