Devotion, the power of positive faith, is warm and is the best auxiliary tool for healing this type of white magic.

Negative, fanatical faith, however, possesses immense destructive power and is the perfect fuel for black magic.

The pain a demon soul, which normally takes a thousand years to enter its growth phase, has to endure to cross that hurdle in such a short time is unimaginable.

He had reminded Lü Cheng, but Lü Cheng insisted on speeding up.

What can he do?

To maximize the success rate and prevent Lü Cheng from falling into true madness amidst the endless pain of his burning soul, using this faith array to alleviate his suffering is the only way.

"What is this thing?" Several high-ranking officials pointed at the black flames on each other's bodies.

There was no heat, and it couldn't be extinguished, but they were certain it wasn't a hallucination!

"Congratulations, you're doomed." Daolong said coldly.

"This is a mark. The demon god will not indiscriminately kill his followers, but the flames on your bodies prove that you are all a bunch of hypocritical liars."

"The more intense the black flames, the more disdainful this person is of the demon god's help."

"Ungrateful trash, get ready to go to hell."

These black flames are manifestations of his manipulation of that tainted power of faith, fed back to the source. The more chaotic a person's mind, the more intense the flames.

Lu Cheng is currently in a state of riot due to the evolution of his soul. Growth is a painful process, not to mention that the method they used this time was the most radical burning.

He had originally intended to use this power of faith as a painkiller, but after that tainted power of faith condensed, it only intensified the pain of his burning soul. In fact, this tainted power of faith was even devouring his soul!

Both to vent his anger and to quickly eliminate these impure beliefs, Lü Cheng launched this purifying attack.

After Lü Cheng's soul began to evolve, the Saint Seiya had already merged back into one, and he couldn't get out for a while. Even if he did get out, that guy wouldn't bother with such a trivial matter.

Saint Seiya saves the world, not a few reckless humans.

If it were Lopez, he would never support such a thing, because he is more humane. Unless there is no hope for him, Lopez would not actually do it.

But this Saint Seiya's incredibly terrifying righteous magic shows that he stands at a height infinitely close to the immortal god who gave him power!

The Saint Seiya warriors knew very well that some people were not worth saving.

……

"What is this?"

"Why can't I put it out? Someone please help me!"

Why don't you have any on you?

"Why isn't this thing hot?"

"..."

The sudden appearance of black flames caused a huge stir. Although it wasn't fatal, the fact that his body was on fire and strangely black made it seem very odd.

"Grand Master, is there... any way to remedy this?" Han Ji asked anxiously.

News spread throughout the city that many people had developed black flames on their bodies!

"Make amends?" Dao Long raised an eyebrow.

"There is a method, but I don't think those who dismissed it earlier will believe in it now."

"Please let me know!" Han Ji said.

"Simple." Daolong opened his arms and looked up to embrace the sky.

"Kneel down! Repent sincerely! Pray earnestly!"

"If they are sincere enough, the demon god might take pity on them and spare them this time. However, if their repentance is false..."

Dao Long turned around, a strange smile that was hard to describe appearing on his face.

"The demon god is both merciful and harsh!"

"They don't regret it, and the Demon God will help them!"

Death? Murder?

Too low-level!

Lu Cheng disliked killing, not because he was kind, but because he felt that death was not a punishment; on the contrary, it was too easy.

Once you're dead, you can't feel anything anymore; only the living can be punished!

Only the living can feel pain!

"Brother Fan, how come you have this on you too?" Zhang Xiaohou asked anxiously.

“I…” Mo Fan’s expression froze.

He didn't pray at all!

How can this thing still exist?!

"By the way, the Demon God's flames only purify the areas he protects. If you could survive without the Demon God, he wouldn't insist on saying he saved you," Daolong said inexplicably.

"The flames will only cover the area within my previous magic circle. The wrath of the demon god will last for a while. If you are confident in yourselves, you can escape."

"go out?"

Everyone's expression froze.

After the demon god appeared in the sky, the ancient capital was once again shrouded in a black barrier. The undead outside the barrier were all sucked up. However, just now, for some unknown reason, after a flash of light, all the undead that were not swallowed fell down!

The demon is directly above the ancient capital!

So the undead that were sucked into the air and then fell down landed on the barrier and slid to the edge of the barrier!

Going out now?

The undead army is swarming us!

“The area within the barrier is the Demon God’s protected zone, so he can naturally and rightfully clean up any trash that doesn’t suit his taste,” Dao Long said.

"If you are unwilling to accept the protection of the demon god, then you may do as you wish."

"Rely on yourself!"

Two unknown high-ranking officials suddenly flapped their wind wings and flew out of the barrier.

They didn't think they could survive the attack from that monster in the sky; escaping the ancient capital was their only way to survive!

"Everyone!" Daolong's voice resounded throughout the city once again.

The situation was explained very simply and concisely, and two choices were given to those who had black flames burning on their bodies.

Stay where you are and pray for the demon's forgiveness, or leave the demon's sanctuary.

Now that you've gone this far, please don't say the Demon God is heartless.

"Should we...run?"

As the fireball in the sky grew larger and larger, eventually reaching a diameter of several thousand meters, many people in the city began to think about fleeing for their lives.

"It's fake! It's all fake! Han Ji lied to us!"

"Those high-ranking officials treated us all as sacrifices! They offered us up to that monster in the sky just to save their own lives!"

Suddenly, a commotion arose in the crowd, and upon turning around, one could see that the troublemakers were engulfed in intense black flames.

"You all saw it just now, right? That monster was actually devouring the undead!"

"They were devouring the undead just now, they'll definitely devour us next!"

"All demons and gods are fake! It's all..."

The words stopped abruptly.

Lu Huan appeared in front of the troublemaker. "The guild leader just explained it very clearly: those with black flames burning on their bodies can stay where they are and beg for forgiveness, or they can leave the barrier. The mages have already cleared a path, and even several super-rank mages with flames burning on their bodies will clear the way for everyone."

Why are you causing trouble here?

"I..." Looking at the chief of the Imperial Guard mages so close to him, the troublemaker's legs went weak and he fell to the ground.

"Send him to the edge of the barrier. Whether he goes out or stays, it's his choice." Lu Huan glanced at the accompanying mage beside him.

Without hesitation, the mage, who happened to be a wind mage, flapped his wind wings and quickly carried the fallen man away from the scene.

"Gentlemen, I am Lu Huan. I need to tell you about the current situation; we are also taking a gamble," Lu Huan said earnestly.

“I know many of you have doubts, and to be honest, I have some doubts too, but I am truly grateful to this demon who saved the ancient capital.”

"Without it, the ancient capital would be a place overrun by the dead by now, and I would probably be decapitated, or even die without a complete corpse."

"I don't know if what that dark mage said is true, but I will stay in the city. No matter what the outcome, Lu Huan will live and die with the ancient capital!"

"Gentlemen, do you still have any doubts?"

"..."
