Chapter 728: 540 Three Sentences' Time



The thick green Energy Bullet seemed to harbor an agonized, raging head within its terrifying form, emitting a sharp howl as it floated toward Kuang Xin's chest, like a specter with a mind of its own, drifting up and down.

Yet, during its wandering journey, something unexpected happened, and the originally singular green Energy Bullet suddenly split into three, with the other two newly-formed bullets heading for the only passage available.

The entrance to this place was the only way in or out, a city stronghold carefully chosen by the sect.

They did not have to worry about being sealed off by outsiders, for as long as they achieved their goal, those outside would be eager to come in.

At this moment, it seemed that the external personnel who had sensed the change here also began to observe inward, detecting the presence of life. The deep green Energy Bullet instantly included the newcomers as targets for its attack.

The split Energy Bullets inherited the speed of the original and, after a brief moment of locating their targets, they dashed toward them on erratic trajectories with formidable velocity.

So swift was their speed that even Kuang Xin, now considerably agile, found it difficult to dodge.

"Pfft!"

The Energy Bullet penetrated his chest, and the tremor on the spiritual level instantly spread throughout his body, causing the world in Kuang Xin's eyes to seem overlaid with afterimages.

And not just that—his health limit even dropped sharply—

[You have been affected by an unknown attack, HP -60/60.]

That was half of his total health!

Kuang Xin, shocked by the simplicity and speed of the attack that nearly destroyed half of his health bar in an instant, wondered if he would be finished if the opponent struck once more.

"What is this thing!"

"What is this thing!"

Almost simultaneously, Kuang Xin also heard two angry shouts from the passage behind him.

The next moment, two executors wearing the distinctive robes of the Heretical Arbitration House charged in with large strides.

Bathed in the luminescence of the pervasive toxic gas in the air, the faces of the two executors were shrouded in a grim green glow.

"Demons have invaded this place, unrelated parties please stay clear!"

Their voices, imbued with the power of Spiritual Energy edicts, echoed in the sinister space. Such words normally helped to avoid most misunderstandings during a mission, preventing unnecessary internal conflicts, since humans naturally stood on the same side when facing demons.

But obviously, there was no such environment at the moment.

The civilians that remained here were either players like Kuang Xin or minions deeply corrupted by demonic power.

Fortunately, the executors who broke in quickly identified who was friend and who was foe, thanks to the distinct feedback from the Spiritual Energy edicts.

Without a doubt, the big monster radiating white-green light all over its body was the greatest enemy here!

As for their companion...

The first executor to rush in looked towards Franca, "Are you alright? Can you continue to fight?"

"I'm afraid... I can't." The sword dance whirlwind had been her last bit of strength.

Franca wore a bitter smile, "The opponent is Sogros, the Great Unclean One under the Eternal. You must be careful!"

"A Great Demon!"

"The Unclean One!"

Both executors were equally astonished, as it was rare for a demon of such caliber to appear in the material world.

If there weren't an alarmingly large number of sacrifices, there must be something special here that allowed the Great Demon to manifest successfully.

In resolving demonic incidents, besides expelling the demons that have descended into the world, another key aspect is to control the inducing factors that led to their arrival, ensuring the situation doesn't worsen.

The thought of dealing with the demon crystallized instantly in the minds of the executors, both staring at Franca as they urgently asked, "What is it?!"

"It's her." Franca looked towards the girl, whose body was partially obscured by the Unclean One, Sogros, "She has been deceived, mistakenly believing that demons can redeem this world."

"Understood!" Both executors responded instantly and started to coordinate.

The one at the forefront took out a giant hammer from behind, taller than themselves. Empowered by Spiritual Energy, they leapt into the air and charged towards the Unclean One, Sogros.

The other executor took out a glass-like mirror, infused it with Spiritual Energy, and then tossed it out with a wave of their hand.

In the mirror... were scenes they had encountered along the way.

During their mission to eradicate demons, if conditions permitted, each executor was required to use these special Spiritual Energy constructs to record in detail everything they encountered.

Regular optical cameras could only capture mundane changes, those observable by non-Spiritual Energy users like light and shadow, but their Spiritual Energy constructs could record changes in Spiritual Energy up to a certain degree, to ensure precise and accurate analysis of demons.

At this moment, it was used for another purpose—

Admonishment.

Demons excel at seduction, and cases of deception like Glatis's are not uncommon in incidents related to demons.

To know is to be contaminated.

To prevent more people from being tainted by demons, cities typically do not deliberately publicize the dangers of demons.

Yet it was this ignorance that led many who fell into hardship and could not change their circumstances through their own power to place their hope in "omnipotent" divine beings.

In the end, this often invited demons.

In such cases, simply making the initiators—the Believers who summoned the demons—aware that their "faith" was misguided and not what they hoped for, would often be enough to lead most astray back onto the right path.
