1521 Interrupted
A greedy Demon!
Yu Jiayuan gritted her teeth.
As long as she could remove the pollution in her body!
"OK! A thousand!"
"Gagaga, very good. I appreciate your straightforwardness!"
The Demon Imp opened its palm, and a Goatskin Scroll and a blue quill immediately appeared in its hand. It wrote on the Goatskin Scroll as it said, "This is the contract. Each of you must collect 1,000 pure soul sacrifices and give them to me within a year. In exchange, I will remove the pollution in your bodies."
The contract was quickly written and slowly floated into Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan's hands.
Fang Heng opened the contract and checked it.
[Hint: The monster from Abyss is about to form a contract with you…The player can choose whether to accept the contract.]
[Warning: This contract may have a huge hidden danger.]
[Hint: Rejecting the contract will have a high chance of angering the contract maker.]
Fang Heng read the contract carefully and frowned.
A contract signed with a Demon.
After carefully checking the contract, Fang Heng realized that the Imp in front of them was just a 'second-hand dealer.'
In fact, the one they were signing the contract with was not the Imp but a Demon named Rivas.
After signing the contract, in addition to the agreement mentioned above, the loyalty rights of their souls would also be inherited by the Demon, Rivas, after their deaths or 20 years later. From then on, their souls would be enslaved by the Demon forever.
What a good plan!
Fang Heng sneered in his heart.
Their souls would be enslaved forever after death or 20 years later. How was that different from becoming a Fallen One?
To Yu Jiayuan, doing so would only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. It was just a forceful way to stall time.
Fang Heng turned to look at Yu Jiayuan.
Yu Jiayuan gritted her teeth.
She was also obviously aware of the problem with the contract.
It was another deep abyss pit!
But she didn't have time.
The materials needed to maintain the magic array ritual were running out.
She didn't have the time to bargain with the Demon Imp.
After signing the contract, she still had 20 years to struggle, but if she didn't, she would have nothing left in two days at most!
There was still a chance if she signed the contract, and there would still be time…
Yu Jiayuan gritted her teeth and started signing.
"Stop!"
All of a sudden, a loud shout came from behind.
Fang Heng heard the shout and turned to look. He saw Shan Fucai pointing his gun at them and quickly walking up the stairs with a group of people behind him.
"Stop your deal with the Demon immediately!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Shan Fucai shouted as he aimed at the Demon Imp in the air.
"B*stard!"
The Demon Imp nimbly dodged the attack and turned to look at Shan Fucai and the others with a hint of hatred.
"You guys again! You always interrupt me!"
The Imp cursed loudly and turned to look at Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan, "Give me! Give me the signed contract!"
Whoosh!
The Demon Imp roared and pounced on Yu Jiayuan, trying to snatch the contract from her.
"And you! Hurry up! Sign the contract!"
As it roared, the Demon Imp's gaze landed on Fang Heng.
Upon gazing, it seemed to have seen something extremely strange, and a hint of surprise appeared in its eyes.
It stared at Fang Heng and then revealed a look of extreme fear.
"You, you are…"
"Sha! Shalalalala!"
Suddenly, the red iron chain tied to the Demon Imp's leg was pulled!
The Demon Imp was dragged along by the chains uncontrollably. Before it could say anything, it was dragged into the red spatial rift behind him!
"Boom!"
In the next moment, the spatial rift in the air exploded.
"This, this…"
Yu Jiayuan's expression gradually fell into a daze as she looked at the spatial rift that exploded in mid-air and the rapidly burning contract in her hand.
Contract.
That was her last hope.
Over. It was all over.
The signing of the contract had failed, and her last hope had been destroyed.
For a moment, Yu Jiayuan felt like she had lost all hope and stood rooted to the ground.
"Fang Heng! Stop!"
Seeing that the summoning ritual had been interrupted, Shan Fucai heaved a sigh of relief. From afar, he shouted at Fang Heng, "Stand where you are and don't move. Accept our investigation immediately! Stop all movements!"
Fang Heng's attention was focused on Shan Fucai and the others, so he did not notice the strange behavior of the Demon Imp.
When he saw Shan Fucai and the others rushing toward him, he quickly pulled Yu Jiayuan beside him.
"Let's go!"
He didn't want to spend the rest of his game time in prison, so he immediately brought Yu Jiayuan to the other side of the abandoned building.
"Chase! Stop him! I want him alive!"
"Yes, sir!"
Several figures flashed past Shan Fucai and quickly approached Fang Heng like shadows.
Fang Heng sensed the pursuers behind him and immediately frowned.
They were not the normal police officers he had encountered earlier!
They should also be cultivators from one of the disciplines.
The opponents' movement speed was extremely fast.
The situation was not good.
Fang Heng quickly took out the jade pendant from his backpack.
"Bang!"
The next moment, a black aura suddenly exploded from the jade pendant!
The aura of the death realm!
Almost instantly, Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan disappeared under the black aura of the death realm.
"Be careful!"
That was the first time the Occult Joint Investigation Committee investigators had seen such a strange aura of the death realm. They immediately became vigilant and dared not approach the spreading black fog.
Everyone's vision was blocked by a thick fog, and they lost track of Fang Heng for a moment.
"Fire!"
An investigator tried to use Elemental spells to purify and burn the aura of the death realm.
The effect was minimal.
D*mn it! Just a little bit more!
By the time everyone used the Water Elemental Purification to eliminate the aura of the death realm, Fang Heng's figure had long disappeared.
If they were given a few more minutes, the entire abandoned building would be surrounded. And Fang Heng would have no chance of escaping.
But…
Shan Fucai sighed at his bad luck the past two days. He then shouted, "Hurry up! Art of Perception!"
"Art!"
Another investigator in the team formed an imprint with both hands and shouted.
Art of Perception!
The skill was released, and a faint trace appeared before the investigator's eyes.
It was the escape route that Fang Heng had taken with Yu Jiayuan!
"Over there!"
"There's still time, chase!"
Shan Fucai was unwilling to give up and continued to lead his men in pursuit.
Everyone followed the passage and rushed downstairs. Just as they reached the second floor, they heard a loud explosion next to them.
"Boom!"
A tall figure broke through the wall on the right and stood in front of Shan Fucai and the others.
Shan Fucai's pupils constricted.
Sun Zhaoyu!
The infamous S-level Fallen One had been on the wanted list for over ten years. He had also contributed to the chaos in the city in the day.
"Hehe, I made it, I made it."
Sun Zhaoyu patted the dust off his body and banged his fist in front of his chest. He looked at the people from the Occult Joint Investigation Committee, and his eyes revealed a strong desire to fight, "Come on, you trash. I don't like you at all. Just attack me together!"

1522 The Worst Plan
On a speeding car, Fang Heng panted heavily.
Their luck was pretty good. Perhaps because they feared the aura of the death realm, Shan Fucai and the others did not catch up.
Seated in the car backseat, Yu Jiayuan was like a zombie, muttering to herself.
"It's over. It's all over…"
It was hopeless.
Even her last hope was destroyed.
Was she only left with the option of becoming a Fallen One?
"Hey, Yu Jiayuan."
While Fang Heng piloted the car, he glanced at Yu Jiayuan in the backseat through the rearview mirror.
Hearing someone calling her name, Yu Jiayuan raised her head, her eyes filled with confusion.
It was as if she had lost her soul.
If Fang Heng hadn't dragged her away earlier, Yu Jiayuan wouldn't have bothered.
She wouldn't have bothered if she was caught.
To collect the items needed for the Imp Summoning Ritual, Yu Jiayuan spent a lot of time and money. It was impossible to gather all the items required for the summoning ritual again in a short time!
All her efforts were wasted at the last moment!
How hateful!
Yu Jiayuan sighed deeply.
Such was fate.
There was no other way.
She could only accept it.
"It's over, Fang Heng. It's all over."
Fang Heng pursed his lips and said, "Don't be so pessimistic. We've tried it just now. It seems that your action plan isn't very good. I'll be the one leading now. You don't have any objections, right?"
Yu Jiayuan didn't understand what Fang Heng meant. She sat in the backseat and stared at Fang Heng for half a second.
Suddenly, she reacted and stared at Fang Heng, raising her voice, "What do you mean?! Are you saying that you have a way to remove the pollution?"
"Indeed."
Fang Heng nodded, "But I can't guarantee success. Besides, this method is very dangerous."
Yu Jiayuan immediately came back to life and hurriedly asked, "What method?"
There was still a way!
Why didn't he say so earlier?
Fang Heng looked ahead and focused on piloting the car. He asked, "Have you ever heard of an organization called Hope Alliance?"
"Hope Alliance, Hope…"
Yu Jiayuan muttered several times in a low voice. Then, she recalled something. With a puzzled look, she said, "You mean the Holy Court?"
"Yes! Have you heard of it?"
Fang Heng nodded and briefly explained the relevant information about Hope Alliance to her.
Since Yu Jiayuan's plan had failed, so they could only start from the Holy Court.
Fang Heng had always been 100% wary of Saintess Viona.
He only decided to try Viona's method after Yu Jiayuan's action plan failed.
Moreover, Fang Heng already had a plan.
Didn't they say that the Hope Alliance had the ability to eliminate pollution?
For safety reasons, he would let Yu Jiayuan try it out first.
"Good!"
Yu Jiayuan agreed without hesitation after hearing Fang Heng's explanation.
Wasn't it just asking her to be a guinea pig?
She had nothing left to lose.
She would go all out!
If things went well, she would benefit from it! If things went wrong, then she would just pay with her life!
…
The next day.
The sky gradually brightened.
Fang Heng looked out the window.
A few rays of dawn shone through the city shrouded in dark clouds.
After driving for half a night, they had already entered the slums 20 kilometers away from the District Ado Tutelan.
The car drove on the muddy path for nearly half an hour before stopping.
There was only a muddy path ahead, and vehicles could no longer pass through.
"We're here."
Yu Jiayuan had coincidentally bought a special item called the Dawn Stone in the slums before. Hence, she had some impression of the Hope Alliance.
"The Hope Alliance's stronghold is deep in the slums. I went there once, and it was very ordinary there."
Fang Heng got out of the car and looked at the low houses connected not far away. He nodded.
"Okay, lead the way. Let's go."
They continued along the muddy path and entered the dirty and smelly slums.
There were not only refugees in the slums but also some idle people from all walks of life.
Noticing Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan, many people cast their gazes on them.
Halfway, Yu Jiayuan explained the situation to Fang Heng in a low voice.
"The Hope Alliance was established deep in the slums. This is their operational stronghold. Most of the people in the slums are from Ordot. That place has been plagued by war all year round, and many people have escaped from there. The government has no time to manage them, and they don't have any identification documents. Over time, they established the slums here."
"Hmm? The government allowed them to build slums here?"
"There's no need for the government's permission. There are disputes over the sovereignty of this place. There are often conflicts between our country and our neighboring country. Once the conflicts intensify, this area will become the first battlefield. Both sides have tacitly agreed to use this area as a buffer zone. Any military action on this area by either party will cause a stress reaction from the other party."
Yu Jiayuan said in a low voice, "Other than that, this is also the main passage for smuggling. We can buy some black market goods here."
After passing through the bustling open-air market and making many turns, Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan arrived at a church deep in the slums.
A half-abandoned church.
The outer walls of the church had been damaged by the flames of war. One of the walls had even collapsed.
Through the outer wall, Fang Heng saw that there were still many people praying in the church.
Outside the church, two boys saw Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan walking over, and they handed them hand-drawn flyers.
"Even in the darkness of despair, we can still find traces of light."
Yu Jiayuan glanced at the words on the flyer and handed it over to Fang Heng.
It seemed that the Holy Court was not doing too well there. It could only barely spread its teachings in the slums.
Fang Heng shrugged, put away the flyers, and walked into the church with Yu Jiayuan.
Immediately, two believers came forward.
"Today's morning prayer time has already begun. You will have to stop here."
"We're here to look for Gan Honghua. Please tell Mr. Gan that Viona asked me to look for him."
One of the believers nodded and pointed at the old man hosting the prayer ritual in front of the hall. He nodded and said, "Bishop Gan is presiding over the morning prayer. I will pass on the message immediately after the prayer ritual ends."
Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan looked at each other, then sat on the chairs at the side, quietly waiting for the prayer ritual to end.
Ten minutes later, the people who participated in the daily prayer left. Gan Honghua walked over.
"I'm Gan Honghua. What can I do for you?"
Gan Honghua was an old man with a gentle and kind smile, which made people feel friendly toward him.
Fang Heng stood up and said, "Bishop Gan, Saintess Viona asked me to look for you."
Gan Honghua waved his hand to signal the believers to leave and said in a low voice, "I've already heard about it. Does the Saintess have any instructions?"

1523 The Slums
"We're both polluted. Viona asked me to come to you. She told me that you have the ability to help me eliminate the pollution."
Gan Honghua looked at Fang Heng.
"Forgive me for being presumptuous, but do you have any token to prove what you said?"
Fang Heng shook his head.
"We didn't have time to meet the Saintess in person, but she said you should understand after seeing this."
Fang Heng stretched out his hand.
"Buzz…"
The dark golden Book of Oaths levitated in mid-air.
In the distance, a group of believers saw the Book of Oaths that Fang Heng had taken out, and they all revealed yearning expressions.
No one knew who took the lead, but the believers half-knelt on the ground and prayed silently.
After Gan Honghua confirmed the Book of Oaths, his expression changed, and he asked softly, "I get it. Did something happen?"
Fang Heng put away the Book of Oaths, glanced at Gan Honghua, and said, "The Saintess has her own arrangements."
"I understand. Since you're invited by the Saintess, I'll definitely do my best. It will take some time to set up the pollution removal ritual. It will take about an hour. I'll get the believers to bring the two of you out for a walk."
"No need. We'll just wait here."
"OK."
Gan Honghua called a few believers over and whispered a few words to them before going to the back hall with them.
Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan sat in their chairs for more than an hour before a believer respectfully approached them.
"The ritual preparation is ready. Bishop Gan asked me to bring you to the ritual hall below. Please follow me."
Fang Heng stood up.
"OK, lead the way."
Following the guidance of the church assistant, Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan entered the back hall and followed the stairs that led down to the first basement. They arrived at the entrance to the second basement.
The church believer stopped in his tracks and handed the two of them a kerosene lamp. He explained respectfully, "The ritual hall is in the second basement. Normal believers like us are not allowed to enter the area below. Please enter the second basement and follow the passage to the end. Bishop Gan is waiting for you."
"Alright, thank you."
Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan looked at each other, feeling strange.
But they had come so far. There was no turning back.
They had to venture into it, even if it were a dragon's pool or a tiger's den!
Fang Heng took the kerosene lamp and strode downstairs.
Second basement.
There was a long pathway facing the stairs.
The faint light provided by the kerosene lamp made it impossible to see the end of the passage clearly.
The two of them walked slowly along the narrow pathway.
They walked for more than ten minutes.
Just as Fang Heng felt something was amiss, a large door appeared before him.
The door was open, and the light of candles came from the hall.
Gan Honghua was standing at the entrance.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. The ritual preparation is ready. We can start now."
Fang Heng walked into the hall and looked around.
In the center of the hall stood a Goddess statue. The center was two meters in front of the statue, and the floor was engraved with numerous rune marks of the Holy Court.
Gan Honghua led Fang Heng into the hall.
"More than ten years ago, after receiving the instructions from the Holy Court, I secretly set up a Temple of Faith in the slums and built it deep underground. Unfortunately, preaching in this world is too difficult. After so many years of hard work, I've only collected one-tenth of the targeted amount of power of faith. Please convey my apologies to the Saintess."
Gan Honghua sighed heavily.
As Fang Heng listened, he stole a glance at Gan Honghua.
Had the Holy Court secretly built the Temple of Faith more than ten years ago?
Were they secretly preparing to do something terrible?
Worried that Gan Honghua would be suspicious, Fang Heng did not ask further.
"Alright, I will."
Yu Jiayuan was concerned about the pollution and couldn't help but bring the topic back to pollution. She asked, "Mr. Gan, can you remove the pollution from our bodies?"
"Yes, but removing the pollution will consume a portion of the power of faith. I once experienced the oracle with the Saintess. I'll definitely do it since it's the Saintess' request."
Yu Jiayuan received an affirmative answer, and a flame of hope instantly ignited in her heart.
Candles flickered in the dim room.
Gan Honghua walked to the magic array in the hall and gestured, "I'll start the pollution removal ritual for the two of you. The ritual can only be carried out one at a time. Both of you have been polluted. Who will start first?"
Fang Heng nodded at Yu Jiayuan.
He had communicated with Yu Jiayuan before.
The fact that the Holy Court could solve the pollution was not a secret.
There was a huge risk.
Yu Jiayuan would test it out, and he would watch from the side. If there were a situation, he would act immediately.
"Let me do it."
Yu Jiayuan glanced at Fang Heng and took a step forward.
When she first heard Fang Heng's story about the Holy Court incident, she had already sensed the contradictions in Fang Heng's words, but she was smart enough not to ask.
As long as she could remove her pollution! All the risks were worth it!
Yu Jiayuan took a deep breath, stood in the middle, and closed her eyes slightly.
"Before I announce the end of the ritual, please do not leave the ritual magic array."
After saying that, Gan Honghua summoned the Book of Creation and chanted a prayer.
He activated his mental strength, and the rhythmic prayers awakened the golden light from the Goddess stone statue in the hall.
As light appeared, the magic array in the hall was activated. The dark golden light gradually shone, enveloping Yu Jiayuan in the center.
Yu Jiayuan closed her eyes.
She felt like she was soaking in warm water.
The dark golden holy power gradually invaded her sea of consciousness.
Under the influence of the gentle and clean strength, the gray fog in her sea of consciousness gradually dissipated.
It was effective!
Yu Jiayuan's eyes were tightly shut, and the excitement in her heart could not be any greater.
The pollution was gradually decreasing!
The pollution in her sea of consciousness was dispelled by the holy power!
Fang Heng stood at the side and observed quietly.
Three ornate glass bottles were in front of the Goddess statue in the middle of the hall.
Under Gan Honghua's control, a light blue aura kept seeping out of the bottle. After being transformed by the Goddess statue and the magic array, it converted into a dark golden light.
It looked like Yu Jiayuan had absorbed the light.
The three bottles.
They seemed a little strange.
As Fang Heng pondered, the shadow of the magic array was suddenly reflected in his right pupil.
Omniscient Eyes!
The phantom of the magic array spun rapidly!
[Hint: Through Omniscient Eyes, the player has discovered an item – Bottle of Faith (Holy Court).]
Item: Bottle of Faith (Holy Court).
Level: Rare.
Description: Faith is an extremely powerful strength. The Holy Court has created a faith product that can temporarily store faith.
Description: This item is a special item. It cannot be stored in the backpack.
So that was the case.
Fang Heng understood.
It was the power of faith.
Gan Honghua was relying on the Bottle of Faith to store faith temporarily.
Through the Book of Creation, the magic array, and the Goddess statue, the strength was driven to achieve the effect of removing the pollution.
Everything seemed to be fine.

1524 A Shocking Change
Faith was a powerful strength to the Holy Court, and the Book of Oaths in his hand could also be replenished quickly through the power of faith.
However, Fang Heng wasn't very interested in those three bottles that couldn't fit into his backpack.
After the ritual lasted for ten minutes, the golden light in the hall gradually dimmed.
"The ritual is over. You can open your eyes now."
Yu Jiayuan suddenly opened her eyes and turned to look at Fang Heng, her expression full of excitement.
It was a success!
The pollution in her sea of consciousness was removed!
It was really that easy!
If she had known that was the case, why had she spent so much effort previously?! Shouldn't she just go to Fang Heng to resolve it?
Fang Heng looked at Yu Jiayuan and said in a deep voice, "Have you checked the pollution status? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
Had she really succeeded?
Fang Heng did not know if it was a psychological effect, but he felt it was too simple.
He had always been suspicious of Viona, so he started to eliminate pollution from other places. He only came to Gan Honghua when he had no other choice. For safety reasons, he even chose to let Yu Jiayuan test it out first.
However, judging from the results, Viona didn't seem to trick him.
Was he being too careful?
Was it his prejudice against the Holy Court?
Was Viona sincere in cooperating?
Fang Heng hesitated about whether he should trust Viona more.
Yu Jiayuan, "My sea of consciousness has been completely cleaned up. The pollution has completely disappeared. The game hint has also confirmed that the pollution has been completely removed. I feel terrific now!"
The pollution had been completely removed!
Yu Jiayuan felt like she was in an explosive state!
"Yes."
Gan Honghua took out a tissue and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He walked up to them and instructed, "People who have experienced pollution once will have great resistance to the strength of pollution. Theoretically, it will be very difficult to be affected by pollution again. However, you still have to be careful in protecting yourself. Don't break taboos just because you have resistance."
Yu Jiayuan thanked her savior respectfully, "Thank you, Mr. Gan. I'll remember it."
"You're welcome. I'll definitely do my best to complete the Saintess' arrangements."
Gan Honghua waved and looked at Fang Heng, "Mr. Fang Heng, are you ready? We can start now."
"Yes, alright."
Since Yu Jiayuan had already succeeded, Fang Heng did not hesitate anymore.
First, he would get rid of the pollution, and then he would find a way to contact Ruan Ziying and find an opportunity to escape.
The advanced game world was too terrifying. It was better to hurry back to the mid-level world and develop.
Fang Heng followed Gan Honghua's instructions and walked to the center of the magic array in the middle of the hall.
"Let's begin."
Gan Honghua activated the Book of Creation again.
A moment later, the golden light shone in the hall once more.
The Goddess statue released a gentle light again.
Fang Heng closed his eyes tightly.
He could clearly perceive a warm holy power flowing into his body from the outside world and then pouring into his sea of consciousness.
The gray pollution in the sea of consciousness was afraid of the holy power and began to escape rapidly in the sea of consciousness.
More and more dark golden light shone into his sea of consciousness, almost filling it up.
The turbid pollution could no longer escape and gradually dissipated under the strength of the Holy Light.
It was about to disappear.
Huh?!
What?!
Fang Heng's heart suddenly twitched.
The gray pollution aura had clearly been suppressed to its minimum and was almost about to be destroyed. However, a strength suddenly bloomed from Fang Heng's forehead!
Gan Honghua, who was hosting the ritual, suddenly had a change in expression, and beads of sweat began to form on his forehead.
What was that?!
Gan Honghua stared at Fang Heng.
A dark red light appeared on Fang Heng's forehead.
An imprint slowly appeared.
The golden holy light spots in the hall were triggered, and they crazily gathered on Fang Heng's body!
The magic array carved on the floor spun rapidly, and the hall trembled slightly.
Yu Jiayuan realized something was wrong and softly asked, "Bishop Gan? What happened to him?"
Gan Honghua did not answer. He just stared at Fang Heng, the confusion and surprise in his eyes growing stronger.
The ritual was getting out of control!
"Ka!"
Yu Jiayuan heard a soft sound again.
She turned around and looked in the direction of the sound. The Goddess statue in the middle of the hall had a slight crack!
"Kakakakakakaka…"
In the blink of an eye, the cracks spread throughout the entire stone statue at an extremely fast speed!
"Boom!"
The Goddess stone statue exploded in front of Yu Jiayuan!
Shattered rocks flew everywhere!
Gan Honghua stared at Fang Heng, his eyes filled with shock.
"Demon, demonic seed…?"
That was bad!
Gan Honghua couldn't be bothered to continue controlling the ritual. He pulled Yu Jiayuan up and shouted, "Hurry up! Let's go!"
"Swoosh!"
What was that?
Yu Jiayuan was dragged out of the door by Gan Honghua. She subconsciously turned around and glanced at Fang Heng behind her.
A dazzling red light bloomed behind him.
A red light shot up into the sky with Fang Heng as the center. At the same time, a violent strength fluctuation spread from behind.
What kind of terrifying strength was that?
…
On the main road leading to the slums, a car sped past.
Since the incident with Edomo Cervantes the night before, Shan Fucai had been busy for two nights and one whole day. He had barely slept.
Almost everything was related to Fang Heng.
Last night, he was so close to catching Fang Heng, but he didn't expect to encounter Sun Zhaoyu, the Fallen One.
After a fierce battle, both sides finally retreated unscathed.
After the battle with Sun Zhaoyu, the surrounding aura was disrupted entirely, and they lost track of Fang Heng again.
Just now, the headquarters received a report from the citizens that they saw Fang Heng in the slums.
Shan Fucai immediately led a team to investigate.
Ruan Ziying followed.
She had a headache right then.
She could not contact Fang Heng offline, and she was also treated as a suspect online and forced to act together with the Occultism Investigation Committee.
Who knew what Fang Heng was up to?!
It had been less than two days since Fang Heng entered the game, but she felt that the things she had experienced in those two days were more troublesome than what she had experienced in the game in the past two years.
Ruan Ziying couldn't help but ask, "According to your inference, Fang Heng wants to use Albra's Pupil as a sacrifice. His ritual failed, and he didn't look for the Fallen Ones. Why did he appear in the slums now? Is there a problem with your information?"
"The source of the information is reliable. I feel that hiding in the slums is a smart choice. There are no surveillance cameras in the slums, and they can escape the tracking of the Heavenly Eye there. Unfortunately, their luck is not too good, and they were reported."
The car left District Ado Tutelan and slowed down while continuing along the muddy passage.
Ruan Ziying poked her head out of the car window and looked.
About 20 kilometers ahead were the slums.
It was a no man's land known for being dirty and messy. Even water and electricity were limited.
How could they find Fang Heng next?

1525 Awakening
"There's no hurry. Don't alert the enemy first. A group of investigators have already disguised themselves as poor people and entered the slums to investigate. I believe there will be results soon."
Swoosh!!
Ruan Ziying, who was looking out the window, was stunned.
She suddenly saw a red light appear in the middle of the slums in the distance.
"Eh? That's…"
Ruan Ziying was about to speak.
"Boom!!!"
A loud boom sound came from afar, and the car that was slowly driving jolted violently.
What the hell!
Shan Fucai slammed on the brakes aggressively and stopped the car. He stuck his head out of the window and looked out.
In the distance, in the direction of the slums, a red pillar of light shot into the sky!
The pillar of light seemed to connect heaven and earth as it pierced through the void. One could not see the end at a glance.
Ruan Ziying was shocked. She looked at the pillar of light and was speechless.
Could it be…
Was that pillar of light also created by Fang Heng?
Shan Fucai quickly shook the communicator on the seat and shouted, "What's going on? Is there anyone who knows?! All teams, report the situation!"
"An unknown pillar of light has been discovered in the slums. Team A is heading there to investigate."
The communicator was soon filled with loud talking voices.
"Attention, all units. Traces of extremely high levels of pollution have been detected in the slums."
"An explosion occurred in the slums. It's suspected to be related to Fang Heng. We have adjusted the danger level of Fang Heng to SSS! Warning! The moment you meet Fang Heng, you are allowed to subdue him using any method!"
"Attention, we have detected power fluctuations. We are searching for the source of the fluctuations. Attention! Requesting backup!"
"Chi, chi chi…"
All of a sudden, the entire communication channel was disrupted by electricity, and the sounds became intermittent.
"D*mn it!"
Shan Fucai slammed the steering wheel hard and stepped on the accelerator, chasing after the pillar of light in the slums.

There is a chance to cause the target to be contaminated and quickly enter a corrupted state (this state is related to the attributes of both parties).
In the second basement of the dilapidated church, Fang Heng suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils a scarlet red. His vision was also red, and he could only see the game hints quickly flashing across his retina.
Demon bloodline…
The unknown bloodline in his body…?
It was actually related to demons!
For a moment, Fang Heng felt that his thoughts were a little chaotic.
Demons…
So the pollution in this world was also related to demons?
Thinking back carefully, the first time he discovered the existence of an unknown bloodline in his body was during the Vampire Apocalypse. Back then, he and Mo Jiawei had completed a relatively troublesome mission together and wanted to get a demon hunter bloodline.
Then, he failed in the demon hunter bloodline inheritance ritual and even activated the unknown bloodline in his body.
So the so-called unknown bloodline was the demon bloodline.
Demons and demon hunters…
It would be strange if these two bloodlines were not in conflict!
But when did the demon bloodline appear in his body?
Was it related to the special ritual in his memory?
So he was already bound to the demon bloodline before he entered the game for the first time?
Was there a connection between the demon bloodline and the occult mark on his forehead?
Fang Heng felt like there were ten thousand question marks in his mind.
"Boom!"
Fang Heng fell heavily to the ground from mid-air and struggled out of the red in front of him.
The pain gradually woke him up from the blood-red illusion.
Fang Heng propped himself up and looked around.
The entire hall seemed to have suffered a violent impact. Looking up, there was a huge hole in the ceiling that directly penetrated the roof of the outside world. A large area around it was eroded by the explosive strength and completely flattened.
It seemed like…Did an explosion occur just now?
Where was he?
What about Yu Jiayuan and the bishop?
Fang Heng looked around but did not find any traces of Yu Jiayuan and Gan Honghua.
It seemed that the explosion this time was much weaker than the one in the Holy Mountain. It did not cause a large-scale collapse, and the impact was limited.
Fang Heng tried to sense his sea of consciousness again.
This was troublesome.
The pollution had not been completely removed!
After Gan Honghua's ritual, there was only a small area of pollution in his sea of consciousness.
[Hint: The player's sea of consciousness is affected by an unknown pollution effect. Current pollution level: 0.0001%. Under the current state, affected by the player's various attribute skills and other effects, the estimated total pollution time is 58,276 days, 11 hours and 3 minutes (time may be shortened or extended due to external influences of the player)…]
More than 50,000 days. There were still more than 150 years left before the infection…
As Fang Heng pondered, a line of scarlet game hints appeared in his retina.
[Warning: A powerful strength has sensed your presence. Please be careful.]
Fang Heng's brows were tightly knitted together, and his thoughts were once again drawn to the past.
Powerful strength? Who was it referring to?
Combining everything he had seen and heard since entering Watts, Fang Heng had already roughly pieced together a prototype of this world in his mind.
A world closely related to demons.
Those strange rules, taboos, pollution, and so on were mostly related to demons.
So Viona knew that the unknown strength in his body came from the demons? Did she deliberately lead him into this world to discover all of this?
Putting Viona's matter aside, who was the powerful strength in the game hint?
From the current information, he was most likely in the camp of the Fallen Ones, and the enemy was most likely the Occult Joint Investigation Committee.
Was it someone from the committee?

1526 Source of Pollution
Also, why did the Fallen Ones have to spend so much effort to find him?
Because of his demon bloodline?
After awakening the unknown bloodline in his body, whatever doubts Fang Heng had were resolved a little, but more questions and confusion followed one after another.
This was not good.
Fang Heng suddenly realized that he was in a very dangerous situation.
The red pillar of light was too eye-catching, and the Occult Union might come looking for him.
He could not stay here for long!
He had to leave first to look for Gan Honghua.
He must know something!
Fang Heng made up his mind. He immediately switched to his bat form and flew high into the sky, flying out from the broken ceiling.
After the red pillar of light disappeared, the building collapsed for the second time, so a large part of the exit was buried.
Fang Heng spent some effort to return to the ground and return to his human form.
The church should be in chaos after the explosion.
Why was it so quiet?
Fang Heng was suspicious. Just as he walked out of the stairs on the first floor of the abandoned church, he happened to meet two young men walking toward him.
When the two of them saw Fang Heng, their faces instantly changed and turned pale.
"Fang Heng!"
The two young investigators from the Occult Committee had already regarded Fang Heng as the most dangerous criminal. When they saw Fang Heng, they attacked him without hesitation!
"Burn!"
An investigator formed a mark with both hands!
The thick flames condensed into a straight line and pounced toward Fang Heng!
Fang Heng sensed the heat wave coming at him and immediately dodged to the side.
"Boom!!!"
The intense flames landed on the wall behind him and burned a hole in it. It practically pierced through the entire wall!
So ruthless?
Fang Heng frowned and quickly ran to the other side.
He did not want to have a direct conflict with the Occultism Investigation Committee.
Realizing that Fang Heng wanted to run, the investigator condensed a seal with both hands and attacked again.
This time, the investigator chose to attack in an area of effect!
"Flame explosion!"
Boom!!
Fang Heng could feel the overwhelming flames surging toward him!
Dense flames filled the area in front of him, almost submerging the entire passage ahead completely in flames.
The temperature in the entire space instantly rose by more than ten degrees!
Fang Heng frowned and adjusted his direction to the left to avoid the flames.
Swoosh!!
A slight wave suddenly appeared in the space in front of him and there was a cold light from the space.
Spatial transformation?
Fang Heng's sharp senses sensed the spatial fluctuations, and he forcefully twisted his body again.
"Chi!!! Chi!!"
Light shadows of two hands holding two long spears appeared and the spears shot out from the shattered void.
Phantom? Clone?
Fang Heng dodged the attack and stared at the two light shadows. He realized that this was a special ability that he had never seen before.
It seemed to be related to spatial science.
This was troublesome. He was trapped.
Fang Heng looked around.
The other investigator held a spear in one hand and condensed a rune mark in the other.
He was controlling the phantom.
There were only two of them!
Fang Heng had never fought the people of the Occult Joint Investigation Committee before, but now he realized how difficult it was to deal with them.
The natives of this game world were extremely powerful. He was held back by just two ordinary investigators. The danger level was far beyond that of low-level and mid-level games.
He could not get entangled with them anymore!
Under the influence of the red pillar of light, reinforcements from the Occultism Investigation Committee would arrive one after another, and it would only be more troublesome.
He had to get rid of them quickly!
He would use that move!
Whoosh!
Fang Heng quickly switch to necromancy, and his pupils turned ashen.
After upgrading to high-tier occult, Fang Heng realized that many of the skills he had learned before had improved in various aspects.
For example, the release time of the skill, the control of the skill, the power of the skill, and so on.
This was often not reflected in the game's layout.
Fang Heng formed a seal with both hands.
Using the undead Bones' summoning skill only required mental strength to activate, but summoning leaders of the undead Bones that were hundreds of times stronger than ordinary Bones consumed a lot of mental strength. It needed to be combined with the occult's 'Curse' and 'Ritual' to be able to be cast with 100% success.
Huh?!
What the hell!
"Ahhh!!!"
Fang Heng had just finished condensing the sigil and had yet to release his skill when he heard two screams.
The two investigators from the Occult Joint Committee let out painful wails and fell to the ground in pain, clutching their heads with both hands.
What was going on?
Pollution?!
Fang Heng could not help but stop when he saw this scene.
This scene reminded Fang Heng of the pollution he had seen in prison!
The two investigators struggled on the ground in pain. At the same time, the sky darkened very quickly.
Fang Heng realized something and looked up into the sky.
The sky that was originally clear had turned black and was covered by a thick layer of clouds. It was pressing down at an extremely fast speed!
Fang Heng sensed an extremely powerful force gathering in the air.
That was…
Fang Heng's pupils contracted.
Swoosh!!!
A pair of eyes!
Fang Heng could see a pair of eyes above the thick black clouds in the sky and they were staring at him!
The moment their eyes met, Fang Heng felt an extremely tyrannical force pressing down on him!
The gray pollution that was originally entrenched in his sea of consciousness was stimulated and expanded rapidly!
[Warning: Affected by an unknown power, the player's current pollution is increasing significantly. Please be careful!]
[Hint: The player is currently in a special environment. In the current environment, the player cannot use flying skills or spatial teleportation skills. In the current environment, the player has a higher chance of being contaminated.]
[Hint: The current special environment has other unknown effects. Please be careful.]
[Hint: The player has been contaminated. Player's remaining time: 52,292 days…]
He turned around and saw that the two investigators who were struggling on the ground were gradually showing signs of decay.
Such intense and rapid pollution!
Even the investigators of the Occult Investigation Committee were contaminated?
Fang Heng had heard from Ruan Ziying that the Occult Investigation Committee had a set of professional procedures to deal with pollution, which could prevent pollution to the greatest extent.
Was the source of the pollution the pair of eyes staring at him in the sky?
Not good!
Fang Heng immediately felt a strong sense of danger.
Run!
Leave this place immediately!
Fang Heng immediately abandoned the two investigators, who were rapidly corrupting, and turned back to the broken church behind him.
What was going on?
What the hell were those eyes in the sky?
Moreover, under the effects of the unknown environment, all spatial and flying skills were ineffective!
Not good!
Run first!
Go offline and hide for a while!
Fang Heng returned to an empty room in the church and quickly closed his eyes.
Just like before, he closed his eyes and the image of a door appeared in front of him.
But this time, Fang Heng realized that something was wrong!
The red door was wrapped with red tentacles.

1527 The Octagonal Seal
"Chi, chi chi…"
He actually couldn't push open the door in front of him!
D*mn it!
Could it be that the offline operation was also sealed?
Fang Heng tried to break the tentacles on the door, but he found that he could not do it at all!
Upon closer inspection, the red tentacles wrapped around the red door were actually…
Tongues!
The Tongues of Jealousy!
No, he couldn't waste any more time!
"Whoosh!"
Fang Heng opened his eyes again, and the alchemy magic array under his feet quickly disappeared.
Unable to go offline, he could only think of a way to leave the special environment and think of another way!
Leave the slums first!
After some thought, Fang Heng quickly ran out of the church.
On the other side, outside the slums, a few investigators fell into an extreme state of shock. Everyone could not help but look up at the thick clouds in the sky.
A car sped over from afar and stopped in front of everyone.
"Sir!"
Shan Fucai opened the car door and asked loudly, "What's going on?! Who can tell me the specific situation in the slums now!"
"Reporting, Sir, extremely high pollution levels have been detected in the slums. The pollution figures on the dashboard have exceeded the upper limit. Two minutes ago, the higher-ups issued the latest order to prohibit anyone from entering the slums without permission!"
Ruan Ziying didn't get out of the car. She stuck her head out of the window and looked into the slums.
From afar, the sky of the outer region was covered in a thick layer of black clouds. She could feel the powerful power contained in the clouds.
"Sir, five minutes ago, all communications in the slums have been blocked by a special force. External communications have also been greatly disrupted. We have lost contact with the investigators who entered the slums."
"This is a photo we obtained from a nearby military base. At that time, a military helicopter was conducting a reconnaissance mission and discovered an abnormal cloud above the slums. It took relevant photos of it. After that, the helicopter's communication was interrupted, the mission was canceled and the helicopter returned."
Shan Fucai took the photo and looked at it. His eyes revealed a look of surprise.
The photo was taken from above the town. One could clearly see that a huge octagonal sealed area had sealed off the entire slum area!
"Let me see."
Ruan Ziying took the photo and looked at it, and her expression changed.
It was actually an octagonal seal!
The huge octagonal seal enveloped the entire slums and a large part of the slums' periphery.
Ruan Ziying found that her hands were a little cold.
Just by standing here, she could feel the pollution spreading rapidly not far away.
What was going on?
What was the source of such terrifying power?
"Reporting, a large number of people have been corrupted. There has been an unprecedented high-intensity pollution and decay reaction. The higher-ups have requested that the outer area of the slums be sealed off immediately! No one is allowed to enter the slums!"
"Follow-up reinforcement is already on the way."
"The latest order from the higher-ups is that only the highest-level action teams are allowed to enter the slums with the highest level of security! The first mission is to rescue the uncontaminated and search for Fang Heng!"
"Sir! There's a new situation!"
"Speak!"
"We just discovered that the Fallen Ones had broken into the slums on the east side of the slums and fought with us. As time was tight, before our people could set up a defense line, they had forcefully broken into the slums."
Shan Fucai felt a headache and asked, "How many of them are there?"
"Five people, led by Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu."
"How did they get there so quickly? They are even better than a dog's nose."
They had beaten him to it again!
Shan Fucai clenched his fists tightly as he felt hatred in his heart.
"Sir, they seem to have followed our people to the vicinity of the slums…"
Shan Fucai opened his mouth, not knowing how to reply.
Indeed, the Fallen Ones were also looking for Fang Heng.
It might be troublesome to search for Fang Heng alone, but the investigation committee was very active. They would be able to find him with just a little investigation.
Another investigator rushed forward to report, "Sir, there's a new situation. The leader of the Revolution Society, Pang Xiaolan, just contacted the headquarters and suggested that we don't interfere with what's happening in the slums. Their people are already on the way and will come over to deal with this matter. The Revolution Society has promised to give us a satisfactory answer after this matter is over."
The Revolution Society?
Shan Fucai opened his mouth, but his frown deepened.
Why was there a connection with the people from the Revolution Society? Could it be that the cause of the whole incident was a struggle between the two factions?
"Who is coming?"
"Sheng Tao."
Shan Fucai's expression changed. He turned his head and repeated in disbelief, "What did you say? Sheng Tao? Demon Kuramodi?"
"Bring me to him!"
…
A gloomy aura shrouded the area as Fang Heng sprinted towards the exit of the slums. He could feel that he was being stared at by the pair of eyes in the sky.
In this state, the game warning would refresh almost every half a minute, warning him that the decay on his body was spreading rapidly.
Eh?
The Fallen Ones!
After turning a corner on the street, more than ten Fallen Ones blocked the road ahead. Their eyes were filled with red light. Around them, there were more corrupted creatures that had been contaminated, almost blocking the entire road.
The leader of the Fallen Ones stared at Fang Heng and waved his hand.
"Go!"
Whoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!!
The Fallen Ones flew up in unison and rushed toward Fang Heng.
"Looks like I have encountered some trouble…"
Fang Heng whispered as he took out a thick metal rod from his backpack.
First, it was the Occult Joint Investigation Committee, and now it was the Fallen Ones' turn.
Then…
Come!
Let's fight!
"Whoosh!"
Fang Heng lightly tapped the ground with the tip of his toes and flew forward like an arrow leaving the bow. At the same time, the long rod in his hand was thrown forward, making a sound of breaking through the air.
"Hu!!!"
It was an alloy metal rod and was personally created by Dr. Ding Min, whose material science skill level was 189. He spent nearly 5,000,000 survival points and various precious and rare materials for this rod.
The metal rod itself did not have any additional skills.
It had only one feature, it was heavy and sturdy!
"Dong!!! Dong!!!"
The long rod sent the two Fallen Ones flying, smashing into the wall behind them and creating a deep pit.
The Fallen Ones who came after him were obviously shocked by Fang Heng's move and slowed down.
The leader of the Fallen Ones stared at Fang Heng and shouted, "Take him down! Do you all want to die?!"
Whoosh! Swoosh!
The Fallen Ones once again scattered and charged at Fang Heng!
Tsk, troublesome!
It was possible that these Fallen Ones were all recently corrupted. They were not strong, but they were extremely fast and difficult to deal with.
Their attacks were average, but they had powerful self-healing abilities. After being thrown out heavily, their bodies slowly fused and stood up again.
As for the remaining corrupted creatures that had lost their consciousness, they had no offensive ability other than being disgusting. However, they were still extremely troublesome and could not be killed at all!

1528 The Rescue
Fang Heng raised the metal rod in his hand and fought wildly. He relied on the metal rod to continuously blast the Fallen Ones and the Corrupted away.
However, he realized that he could not kill them at all after killing them for half a day!
They were more resilient than his zombie clones!
Were they trying to stall for time?
Seeing more and more Fallen Ones and the Corrupted swarming over, Fang Heng realized that he was gradually sinking into a quagmire and he immediately reacted.
This was troublesome!
These Corrupted and Fallen Ones were all newly born. They were most likely affected by the pair of eyes in the sky and had just been corrupted.
There were many poor people in the slums.
As time passed, more and more poor people were corrupted by the pollution effect or became the Fallen Ones.
Fang Heng glanced at the game hint.
This was bad.
He was stuck on the spot for more than five minutes. The pollution effect on his body had increased greatly, and the remaining time of decay had shortened from the original 50,000 days to only 10,000 days.
Fang Heng had a bad premonition.
He would definitely be in big trouble once he became completely corrupted,
He had to resolve this quickly!
Fang Heng did not waste any more time with the Corrupted and the Fallen Ones. He found a gap and moved back a short distance.
"Buzz!!"
The Book of Oaths floated in the air.
"Chi chi! Chi chi chi!"
The holy remnant chapter flew out of the Book of Oaths, forming streaks of light that danced in the air!
"Boom! Boom Boom!!!"
The remnant chapter hit the Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures and exploded!
[Hint: You have killed an unknown Fallen One.]
[Hint: You have killed an unknown corrupted creature…]
Good!
The game hint finally showed a kill notification!
The holy element had an effect on them!
However, at the same time, the energy stored in the Book of Oaths was quickly consumed!
There wasn't much energy left in the Book of Oaths and in just a short period of time, it was almost used up.
The Corrupted did not expect Fang Heng to suddenly use his trump card. Seeing the death of their companions, they were afraid of the power of the Book of Oaths and hesitated.
Fang Heng found an opportunity and immediately dashed to a gap on the right, forcefully breaking through.
"Chase after him! If we let him escape, we won't be able to live!"
Fang Heng continued to run forward. He had just turned to the right for less than half a minute and when he turned another corner, more than thirty Fallen Ones appeared in front of him!
D*mn it!
Why were there so many of them?
He turned around and saw that the Fallen Ones behind had caught up to him again.
A large number of corrupted creatures had almost filled up the path ahead.
"This is troublesome, I am being surrounded like a dumpling."
Since there was no way to avoid it, then he should just confront them!
He would make his way out!
Fang Heng's expression was solemn as he gripped the metal rod in his hand tightly again.
Using his fastest speed and without getting entangled with them, he used the last bit of energy left in the Book of Oaths to kill his way out!
"Whoosh!"
Fang Heng made a decisive move. He tapped the ground with his toes and once again charged into the crowd of the Corrupted!
"Boom! Boom Boom!!!"
The flying holy remnant chapter blasted away all the Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures that were charging at him!
However, it only lasted for half a minute before the Book of Oaths' energy was completely exhausted!
The surrounding Corrupted and Fallen Ones swarmed over like a tide as if they wanted to drown him completely!
"Bang!"
In the chaos, the fist of one of the Fallen Ones struck Fang Heng's shoulder but was knocked back two steps by the force coming from Fang Heng's body.
[Hint: The player has been attacked by the Fallen One. The player has received 243 damage points.]
[Hint: The player's pollution effect has increased.]
[Hint: The player has been attacked by a corrupted creature…]
Fang Heng glanced at the game hints and immediately realized that the situation was getting worse.
Although the enemy was weak, he was surrounded by a large number of corrupted creatures and Fallen Ones. It was difficult to guarantee that he would not be injured in a chaotic battle.
By relying on the terrifying HP recovery effect of the undying body, the damage could naturally be ignored. But what about the corruption effect?
Unfortunately, he had been dragged into the quagmire by the enemy. Fang Heng could not be bothered to probe his pollution status in his sea of consciousness. He could only try to avoid harm and escape along the streets in the direction of the slums.
Fang Heng rushed forward for five minutes, but the number of corrupted creatures in front of him did not decrease at all. Instead, it increased.
This was bad. He had to quickly think of a way to break free!
Fang Heng had no choice but to stop and condense his spiritual power again. He formed a seal with his hand and prepared to use the Bones' summoning skill.
"Fang Heng! This way!"
What?
Suddenly, Fang Heng heard a loud shout. Then, he saw a figure climbing down from behind a wall on the right not far away.
"Pada."
A bald-headed man with a fierce look jumped down from the wall behind him and charged at him like a raging bull.
The Corrupted and Fallen Ones that were in his path were knocked away one after another!
This kind of rough combat technique was a perfect match for his physique!
Fang Heng's pupils contracted.
The bald man whom he had met in front of the bar before!
When Sun Zhaoyu saw Fang Heng, his eyes flashed with joy.
D*mn it! He had finally found him!
It was Luo Xu who suggested that they follow the people from the Occult Investigation Committee. As expected, they found Fang Heng!
Sun Zhaoyu rushed in front of Fang Heng and shouted, "I'll stop them. Luo Xu is at the east gate! Go behind the wall and meet up with him! Hurry up and go!"
"Hmm?"
"Climb over the wall! Leave the rest to me!"
Fang Heng was stunned.
At first, when he saw Baldy, he thought he was an enemy. He did not expect Baldy to take two steps forward after he finished speaking and help him block the dense swarm of Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures.
What was going on? What was this situation?
Fang Heng had ten thousand question marks in his mind.
Aren't they the Fallen Ones?
Why were they fighting among themselves?
When he looked again, the game hint appeared on his retina again.
[Hint: The player's current faction mission has changed.]
Mission title: Meet up.
Mission description: You have been informed that the Fallen Ones are looking for you, and Luo Xu is currently in the northern part of the slums.
Mission requirement: Meet up with Luo Xu.
Just like the previous missions, there were no punishments or rewards.
Fang Heng did not leave immediately. Instead, he looked at the bald man warily and asked, "You're not with them? Why are you looking for me?"
Hearing Fang Heng's question, Sun Zhaoyu raised his eyebrows in surprise.
He wanted to explain something, but before he could say it, he was punched by the Corrupted next to him.
"D*mn it, have you forgotten? That ritual!"
Sun Zhaoyu shouted and punched the Fallen Ones.
"You are the demonic seed! Go find Luo Xu! You'll know when you find him! If the people of the Revolution Society find you first, we will all be finished!"
Fang Heng stared at Sun Zhaoyu.
Each keyword struck a nerve in him.
The ritual!
The demonic seed!
Luo Xu!
The Revolution Society!
The scene of the mysterious ritual appeared in Fang Heng's mind again.

1529 A Dilemma
"Hurry up!"
More and more Fallen Ones gathered from the back of the passage.
Sun Zhaoyu clenched his fists tightly and followed up with a blast toward the ground.
"Boom!!!"
Cracks appeared on the ground, and a tall rock barrier rose from the ground, temporarily blocking the footsteps of the Fallen Ones.
Fang Heng came back to his senses and saw that Sun Zhaoyu's close combat ability was extremely strong. Those normal Corrupted could not break through his defense at all, and it seemed that he would not be affected by the decay effect. He immediately turned around and climbed up the wall that Sun Zhaoyu came from.
Don't worry about anything else, run first!
Fang Heng climbed over the wall and quickly looked around after landing.
An open area.
Run!
Fang Heng once again ran forward quickly, thinking quickly at the same time.
Viona wasn't lying to him!
Fang Heng was now very sure that this world was closely related to the ritual on his body.
The Fallen Ones' search for him was also related to the ritual.
What the hell was that so-called Revolution Society?
When did this third party appear?
Were the clouds in the sky and the pair of eyes created by the Revolution Society?
There was also the 'demonic seed' that Baldy mentioned earlier.
What was that?
Baldy and Luo Xu's behavior was strange. Fang Heng did not dare to believe them completely just by listening to the bald man's one-sided story. Luo Xu knew some things. However, he could not confirm whether the other party was an ally or not.
It was most likely a trap!
Right now, Fang Heng quickly thought of two completely different choices.
The first choice.
He would join the Occult Joint Investigation Committee and seek help from Shan Fucai and Ruan Ziying.
From the perspective of factions, the corrupted clouds in the sky and the Fallen Ones were most likely on the side of the demons, and the other side was the Occult Committee.
With such a huge commotion in the slums, the government and the investigation committee would intervene.
Finding them would most likely save his life.
But…
Fang Heng quickly rejected this choice.
Judging from the situation of the Occult Joint Committee, the best outcome after returning with them was to be strictly imprisoned and interrogated. He did not know if Ruan Ziying had strong connections.
More importantly, he had just snatched away Albra's Pupil not long ago.
What if the people from the Occult Joint Investigation Committee forced him to do things against his will?
There was such a thing as spitting out something that was in his mouth?
Also, the origin of the demon bloodline in his body was unknown. Once it was discovered…
Fang Heng felt that he had been labeled as a villain, and it was difficult to cooperate with them.
The second choice.
He would choose Luo Xu's Corrupted faction.
Find Luo Xu, figure out what happened, and take the initiative.
The risk was equally great!
On the surface, the game mission hint might be hinting that Luo Xu and he were in the same camp.
However, this sort of misguided backstabbing had happened countless times in the past, and many players had complained about it in the forums.
The origin of Luo Xu's corruption was unknown, and the contamination in his body was even stranger. It was very likely a huge trap. If he ran over directly, he might just be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth!
Damn it! Why did it feel like both choices were bad?
"This is troublesome!"
Fang Heng gritted his teeth and decided to trust no one but himself!
Anyway, he had already obtained the Phoenix Firs. He did not care about the ritual and decay of his body.
This world was too scary. He had to think of a way to escape from the slums and stall for time. After the three-day game time limit ended tomorrow, he had to find a way to contact Ruan Ziying and leave this world. Then, he could make a comeback when his strength increased.
This plan seemed to be the safest, but it was also fraught with danger.
The Occult Joint Investigation Committee and the Fallen Ones' faction were looking for him everywhere like crazy, and there was also the Revolution Society which appeared out of the blue.
Under the pursuit of three parties, it was extremely difficult to escape!
It was better than handing his fate to someone else!
Having made up his mind, Fang Heng quickly turned the corner and ran to the right.
Luo Xu's people were on the east side of the city, so he had to turn back to the west side to avoid them!
However, this way, he would have to return to the direction of the broken church.
Run!
He had just run forward for five minutes when he heard a sizzling sound coming from behind.
The Fallen Ones!
They were chasing after him again!
Under the surveillance of the pair of eyes in the air, Fang Heng had a feeling that he had no way to hide.
Fang Heng took a deep breath.
He couldn't avoid it.
Let's fight.
Beneath his feet, the mud churned as green-gray palms emerged from the mud.
The zombie clones crawled out of the ground with a stagger.
Previously, when he was stealing the Phoenix Firs, all the zombie clones followed the passage back to the Zombie Apocalypse.
Before he went to look for Gan Honghua, Fang Heng had set up batches of zombie clones to be resurrected one after another for safety reasons.
This was the first batch.
The second batch of zombie clones would be revived in 20 minutes!
Originally, the zombie clones were used to deal with the Holy Court. Now, Fang Heng only hoped that they could hold back this group of Fallen Ones.
It didn't seem like there was much hope.
Fang Heng roughly estimated in his heart. Suddenly, he heard someone calling his name not far away.
"Fang Heng! Over here! This way!"
Huh?!
Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat and he immediately looked in the direction of the voice.
It was Yu Jiayuan!
He saw Yu Jiayuan sticking her head out from a room at the end of the passage not far away and waving at him anxiously.
Why was she there?
Whoosh!
Fang Heng didn't have time to think. He immediately left the zombie clones in place and flashed toward the residential area on the right.
"Bang!!"
Fang Heng entered the room and immediately locked the door behind him.
"Fang Heng!"
In the room, there were more than ten people other than Yu Jiayuan.
They were all believers of the Holy Court whom he had met a few times in the church.
When the believers saw Fang Heng, their eyes revealed a look of surprise.
They all recognized Fang Heng. Previously, they had seen Fang Heng using holy power in the broken church. They had also received instructions from Gan Honghua to treat Fang Heng respectfully, so they all regarded Fang Heng as a high-ranking member of the Holy Court from the Otherworld.
Fang Heng glanced at the believers and nodded at them. He then looked at Yu Jiayuan and asked, "What's going on here?"
Hearing Fang Heng's question, Yu Jiayuan felt extremely bitter.
What was going on?
She also wanted to ask Fang Heng what was going on!
Everyone else was fine. Why did he have to make such a big commotion when it was his turn to carry out the pollution removal ritual?
Fang Heng saw Yu Jiayuan's expression and immediately understood.
Right, there was also Gan Honghua!
Gan Honghua must have known what had happened.
Fang Heng focused his gaze on the group of believers in the corner of the room and asked, "Where's Gan Honghua? Isn't he here? Where did he go?"
"When the explosion happened, Mr. Gan and I escaped together. Halfway through, Mr. Gan was affected by the contamination. He's already…"

1530 The Passage
Yu Jiayuan sighed and whispered into Fang Heng's ear about what had happened.
Fang Heng, who was performing the ritual, had a change in his body. A red pillar of light appeared. Gan Honghua immediately pulled her away when he realized that something was wrong. Then, she saw a red light shoot into the sky, and the sky was covered with dark clouds.
After Gan Honghua left the hall, he immediately evacuated with his believers. He did not expect to be contaminated halfway.
Gan Honghua's body was especially polluted. In less than half a minute, he had become a corrupted creature. The followers who followed him also started to be corrupted.
Amidst the panic, Yu Jiayuan hid in the underground passage with the rest of the followers. Not long ago, she climbed out from the other end of the passage and prepared to stay here until the crisis was over. Unexpectedly, she saw Fang Heng passing by.
Yu Jiayuan wanted to die now.
The pollution on her body had just been removed, and now there was new pollution.
Didn't they say that there would be a period of high resistance after the pollution was removed?
Ever since she saw Fang Heng, Yu Jiayuan's mood had been like a roller coaster. She experienced hope then despair, then hope, then despair, then hope, then despair, then the surprise of coming back from the dead, and finally, she fell into despair again…
Yu Jiayuan felt indescribably tired.
After all this, she was still in a contaminated state. The only difference was that she had more than a month as compared to the previous state.
Fang Heng listened to Yu Jiayuan and frowned.
"Did Gan Honghua say anything before he died?"
Yu Jiayuan glanced at Fang Heng and whispered, "I told you, they were muttering about some kind of demonic seed, and then they had a very scary expression on their faces. They took the church's people and immediately retreated. I followed them, and halfway through, Gan Honghua was corrupted."
"Yes."
Fang Heng nodded.
In general, Yu Jiayuan's situation was similar to his. They were both affected by the corruption effect.
"The Fallen Ones' target is likely to be me. Their numbers are increasing. We need to think of a way to get out of here immediately."
"Don't, don't go out!"
Yu Jiayuan quickly reached out to stop Fang Heng and said, "I just tried. Once exposed to the outside world, the pollution in the body will spread greatly. Previously, Bishop Gan was quickly contaminated because he left the church."
She had tried to go out just now, but the pollution in her sea of consciousness had increased greatly when she was exposed to the black clouds outside. She could not last more than half an hour!
Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat. He immediately looked at the game notification.
Indeed, when he was staying outside the building, the game had notified him that the pollution had increased greatly every half a minute. Now, the game notification had not appeared.
Fang Heng tried to sense his sea of consciousness with his eyes.
After he hid in the room, the speed at which the pollution spread in his sea of consciousness decreased significantly.
Eh?
He had been fleeing all the way and had not had the time to observe his sea of consciousness.
Now that he was examining it carefully, he discovered something strange.
It was completely different from the beginning. In the beginning, the pollution in his sea of consciousness was gray, but now, the pollution had changed again.
In the gray area of the sea of consciousness that was contaminated by the pollution, he could see tiny dark red tentacles.
Fang Heng frowned.
He observed carefully.
The gray area of pollution was actually divided into two types?
After Gan Honghua's sacred ritual, the original polluted area had been greatly reduced to a small area that was less than the size of a fingernail. The fingernail-sized area was covered in gray pollution. There were fine dark red hairs in this area of pollution.
Moreover, this part of the pollution was still spreading at an accelerated rate!
"Fang Heng, Fang Heng?"
Fang Heng looked up and saw Yu Jiayuan standing outside the window, her face slightly pale.
"They're coming closer to us."
Fang Heng walked to the window to check.
One after another, the Fallen Ones chased after them in the flat house where they were hiding.
"Not good. They're probably chasing after me."
"We can't stop them here. Let's go back to the underground passage first. The terrain there is narrow, so we can hold on for a while!"
Yu Jiayuan said as she turned around to look at the believers behind her.
"The Fallen Ones are here. Let's go back to the passage."
The followers had already regarded Fang Heng as the spokesperson of the Holy Court. They immediately took action and reopened the underground passage.
Fang Heng was stunned.
There was an underground passage?
"It was left behind during the war. There are many similar passages in the slums. The passages in the lower areas extend in all directions, but after the war ended, all the passages leaving the slums were cut off."
"After Gan Honghua took over the church, he gradually joined forces with the believers to transform the underground area. In the past, some of the church's prayer rituals would also be held in the underground area, where they could avoid the investigation of the Occult Union."
As they spoke, the underground passage was opened again. A young church member waved at Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan, "Quick, hide in here."
"Yes."
Fang Heng nodded and followed behind. He controlled the zombie clones outside the door to enter the room and hide in the underground passage with Yu Jiayuan.
It was too difficult to leave the slums from the outside.
Run first.
Perhaps there would be a turning point after going deep into the underground area.
…
Deep in the underground passage, the air was a little murky. The underground passage of the slums was originally built by refugees to escape the war, so the passage was very narrow and could only accommodate two people walking side by side.
More than ten believers of the Holy Court led the way.
Along the way, he could occasionally see scattered corrupted creatures.
Yu Jiayuan's astrology combined with the Holy Court believers' prayers could completely destroy the corrupted creatures.
Fang Heng followed at the back of the team. Every ten steps forward, he would release the Bones' summoning skill on the spot.
Dense piles of undead Bones crawled out of the spiraling magic array.
The passage was narrow, and by taking advantage of the terrain, the undead Bones could completely block the entrance to the tunnel.
In this way, the Fallen Ones and the corrupted creatures outside would have to deal with the undead Bones at the door before they could rush in.
It could more or less delay their actions.
The believers of the Holy Court also noticed Fang Heng's summoned creatures and their expressions were a little strange.
Wasn't he an oracle from the Otherworld? Why was he using the undead's methods?
The situation was tense, and no one spoke. They just kept walking forward.
Soon, after walking for more than 20 minutes in the passage, the believers brought Fang Heng and Yu Jiayuan to a relatively wide foothold.
It could only be considered a larger underground space.
The believers gathered at the front and whispered.
Puzzled, Fang Heng walked up and asked, "Why aren't we leaving?"
"There's no road ahead,"
A younger believer sighed and pointed to the passage on the right. He explained, "That's the place we escaped from before. It leads to the interior of the broken church. Now, the church is filled with monsters, and the intersection is blocked. We can't go back."

1531 Temple of Faith
"What about the right?"
Fang Heng glanced at the two pitch-black passages on the right and asked, "What about over there? Where is that place?"
"It's another exit. The passage extends in all directions, leading to every corner of the southern slums, but it was sealed a long time ago."
"Sealed? Why?"
"It was arranged by Bishop Gan. Because the passage is connected to the church, the bishop is worried that outsiders will invade through the passage. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he decided to completely cut off and seal it from here."
Fang Heng's heart moved.
What was there to be afraid of? He had zombie clones!
He just had to dig another passage to get out!
Fang Heng asked immediately, "This leads to the periphery of the slums?"
The believer shook his head and said, "This is the border between the two countries. After the two countries signed the armistice treaty, all the passages leading to the periphery of the slums were destroyed by the army."
"What about the nearest one? Do you know the nearest exit to the periphery of the slums? How far is the exit from the passage?"
"About four to five hundred meters."
"Alright."
It was just four to five hundred meters!
The plan remained unchanged.
The second batch of zombie clones would be revived soon. By then, they could dig a passage underground and leave this d*mn place!
The surface world was too dangerous. Once they were exposed to the outside world, the pollution level would increase greatly. It was safer to dig a passage through the underground passage.
"Get out of the way, you guys!
Behind them, the zombie clones that were originally crowded in the passage walked out one by one. They took out the foldable shovels tied to their waists, assembled them, and walked into the dark tunnel on the right.
It was a custom-made multi-functional shovel made by Dr. Ding Min for a zombie clone. Each one cost about 200,000 survival points.
Only Fang Heng had a lot of survival points, so he could use them as he pleased.
Soon, the sound of digging could be heard from inside the passage.
What were the zombies doing? Digging a passage?
When Yu Jiayuan saw this scene, she was shocked.
As a matter of fact, she had seen Fang Heng park his car by the roadside several times when she was driving on the way last night. After that, he summoned an undead creature.
At that time, Yu Jiayuan did not think too much about it. She just thought that it was Fang Heng's special passive skill, summoning the undead.
After careful observation, she realized that what she saw last night was not an undead, but a zombie.
She didn't expect that those zombies weren't used for fighting but for labor!
The believers were stunned when they saw this scene. He could control the zombies and the undead Bones. No matter how one looked at it, this oracle of the Holy Court was extremely strange.
Fang Heng noticed the doubtful gazes of the believers. His expression did not change as he said in a deep voice, "Light is a kind of inclusive power. Don't be rigidly bound by external prejudices. We are as devout as ever."
The believers of the church looked at each other and suddenly felt inspired.
"We will follow God's instructions."
Gan Honghua was dead, and the remaining believers had no direction. They regarded Fang Heng, who had the holy power, as their backbone and followed Fang Heng's lead.
Not long after, a zombie clone staggered out of the passage with a big rock on his back.
Fang Heng frowned and looked at the people behind him, asking, "Is there any transportation here?"
The zombie clone had their own shovels, but they lacked transportation tools to move the stones, so their efficiency was too slow.
Everyone fell silent for a moment.
A young believer said, "The church does have more but over there…"
Yu Jiayuan sighed and explained, "We escaped from the entrance of the church. When we escaped, we were chased by the Fallen Ones and the Corrupted. In order to avoid them, we directly blew up a small section of the passage. The church is very dangerous now. It should have been occupied by the Fallen Ones."
Fang Heng pondered.
With the multi-functional shovel, the zombie clones were very efficient in digging, but they lacked transportation tools. The excavated stones could not be effectively transported out, greatly reducing their efficiency.
The distance was still considered short. As the passage went deeper, the efficiency would only decrease.
He had to take a risk!
"Let's dig over and take a look! Find a way to find the tools."
Fang Heng immediately controlled the zombie clones to stagger over and change their direction. They aimed at the passage leading to the church and started digging.
While they were digging, Fang Heng looked around again.
He suddenly pointed to the left side of the cave.
"Where does that lead to?"
The people from the Holy Court didn't introduce the area on the left.
The few believers of the Holy Court looked at each other. One of the oldest believers stepped forward and explained, "Sir, that is the place to listen to the oracle. Only with the permission of the bishop can we enter. If we enter rashly, we will be punished by the Gods."
Listen to the oracle?
Fang Hengxin felt strange.
What the hell was that place?
Wait a minute.
Fang Heng suddenly remembered what Gan Honghua had mentioned to them before the pollution removal ritual.
Gan Honghua had chosen to stay in this world to spread the teachings of the Holy Court and collect faith because he had accepted the oracle.
For this reason, he even built a Temple of Faith here.
The outside was dilapidated, and there was no trace of the Temple of Faith.
Could it be…
The Temple of Faith was built in the rear?
Interesting.
Perhaps Viona knew about this place?
There might be some good stuff inside.
Since he was already here, shouldn't he go in?
He was clearly in a life-and-death crisis now, but Fang Heng felt a strange itch in his heart. He thought about how he could not go back empty-handed even though he had come here with great difficulty.
"I want to go in and take a look."
The believers looked at each other again, but no one spoke.
Fang Heng saw the hesitation on the believers' faces and reached out his hand.
The scepter of holy judgment appeared in his hand.
Skill-Repentance.
Releases mental suppression on a single target (the target is a human race), causing it to enter a state of repentance (this process requires continuous casting). The success rate of the skill is related to the player's sacred study level, spirit attribute, will attribute, and the target's will attribute and spirit attribute.
It was the scepter that was dropped from Bishop Karkkila.
Additional skill-Repentance.
Although the scepter was currently in a damaged state, its usage efficiency was reduced, and there was a penalty of slowing down its movement speed, its additional skill, Repentance, was very useful.
Fang Heng aimed the scepter at a believer who did not seem to have strong willpower and released the repentance skill. He said in a deep voice, "Bishop Gan Honghua once told me that the Temple of Faith has power that we can rely on. Now that the pollution has spread and the Holy Court is on the brink of death, God will forgive our offense. If there will still be holy punishment, then I will accept it on your behalf. Faith will give us courage and strength."
"I'll do it."
Listening to Fang Heng's bewitchment, the believers mustered up their courage and walked out of the group.
"Lord Oracle, I'll bring you there."
"I admire your courage, young believers."
Fang Heng looked at Yu Jiayuan again and said, "I'll go take a look. You stay here and guard the place. The passage is opened, come and find me."
"Okay, be careful."

1532 Drawing
"Lord Oracle, please come this way."
The believer's face was faintly filled with excitement. He took the oil lamp from his companion and led the way to the depths of the left passage.
The passage was not deep. After walking for three minutes, a shining metal door blocked their way.
The door was made of some kind of golden metal, and it was constantly emitting holy power fluctuations.
There was a circular groove in the middle of the door.
It looked like some kind of mechanism that could be activated.
One of the believers said, "Lord Oracle, I've heard from the Lord Bishop before that the Holy Door has great strength. Without permission, anyone who approaches it will be severely punished by God."
"Okay, you step back a little first."
Fang Heng looked at the door, the alchemy array reflected in his right pupil.
Correspondingly, the runes of the alchemy array also appeared on the golden door.
[Hint: Through the omniscient eye, the player has discovered the Holy Door (sealed)(special).]
[Hint: The player needs to open the door corresponding to the Holy Orb.]
[Hint: The player can also try other ways to open the door.]
It was a little troublesome.
Fang Heng observed the structure of the Holy Door.
There was an alchemy array on the door.
He wanted to see if he could forcefully activate the magic array!
Whoosh!
The alchemy array in Fang Heng's pupils spun rapidly!
The golden light on the door also sped up and emitted a dazzling Holy Light!
After a moment, Fang Heng stopped the operation of the omniscient eye.
Activating the magic array with the omniscient eye consumed both concentration and HP.
He had almost exhausted his mental power, but the door still did not move.
He had failed.
Fang Heng tried to take half a step forward.
"Whoosh!"
A punch was thrown forward at lightning speed.
Before his fist could touch the door, a dark golden holy barrier appeared on the door!
"Boom!!!"
The fist struck the barrier and produced a loud sound like a bell.
An equally powerful rebound strength surged over, and Fang Heng also took half a step back.
Eh?
There was also a strength barrier of the holy element?
With a full-strength punch, not only was the barrier on the door intact, but the door still did not move at all.
Fang Heng was not disappointed. Instead, his face revealed a happy expression.
So the Holy Door had a defensive holy power?
That was good stuff!
Fang Heng could not help but smile.
For others, it would be difficult to deal with a holy barrier such as this.
However, he was different.
To the Book of Oaths, this thing was a great supplement!
Fang Heng's eyes flashed with excitement as he raised his hand forward.
"Whoosh!"
The Book of Oaths was stimulated and suddenly floated in the air.
Fang Heng focused his attention and formed a seal in front of him with both hands.
"Buzz…"
Under the urging of his mental power, the Book of Oaths emitted a golden light.
Sparks of holy power were released from the metal door.
The believers who had followed Fang Heng here did not know what Fang Heng was doing. When they saw the strength of the Holy Light shining like stars, they only felt that Fang Heng was extremely powerful.
The Holy Light sparkles were quickly absorbed by the Book of Oaths in front of Fang Heng.
The game notifications on Fang Heng's retina began to refresh rapidly.
[Hint: The Book of Oaths has absorbed a portion of the strength. The energy value of the Book of Oaths (remnant chapter) is recovering at an accelerated rate…]
[Hint: The Book of Oaths is absorbing…]
The strength contained in the metal door was much more than Fang Heng had expected!
Just nice!
Dealing with the Corrupted and Fallen Ones outside required a large amount of holy energy.
The more, the better!
Charging!
Fang Heng controlled the Book of Oaths with all his might.
The Holy Light spots accelerated and overflowed from the door!
In just a short moment, the Book of Oaths had fully absorbed all the energy!
Fang Heng temporarily stopped activating the Book of Oaths.
The golden door was still standing at the entrance. It did not seem to have been damaged much.
Fang Heng hesitated for a moment.
If he continued to absorb it, the holy power would dissipate.
Wasn't it a little wasteful?
At this moment, believers of the Holy Court rushed over and shouted anxiously, "Lord Oracle, the passage outside has been opened."
"Good! Bring me over to take a look!"
Fang Heng temporarily forgo the Holy Door and followed the believers back to the underground passage to rest.
In the resting area, Yu Jiayuan was cooperating with the believers of the Holy Court to fight the Fallen Ones that slowly crawled out of the passage.
The passage that had collapsed was only a short one, and the zombie clones soon dug it out.
Seeing Fang Heng come over, Yu Jiayuan took a few steps back and said, "Fang Heng, there aren't many creatures in the passage yet. Let's hurry out while we can."
"Alright, let's go!"
Having just finished charging the Book of Oaths, Fang Heng felt more confident about this trip and led the way.
He would first clear a passage into the broken church, then find a means of transportation, and then run back! Finally, he would blow up the passage!
Done! Finished!
…
At the same time, at the periphery of the slums. Shan Fucai lit a cigarette for himself.
He had come to look for Sheng Tao immediately after receiving the news of the arrival of the Revolution Society. He did not expect the other party to not give him any face at all and directly enter the restricted area of the slums.
Sheng Tao only left a word for their question.
"Taboo."
Ruan Ziying had been in Watts for a long time, and her strength was not weak, but even so, she still knew very little about the secrets of the world.
"Who is Sheng Tao? Why is he so arrogant?"
"Sheng Tao of the Revolution Society has been in the limelight recently. People say that he's a ruthless character who kills without blinking an eye. He's always involved in the dirty work of the Revolution Society. Two years ago, the Revolution Society had a big fight with the conservative party. At that time, Sheng Tao, as the representative of the Revolution Society, made a lot of noise."
Shan Fucai stubbed out his cigarette butt and frowned. He said, "The Revolution Society is very unyielding this time. They're coming for Fang Heng."
Ruan Ziying couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Then what should we do? Just leave Fang Heng to them? Didn't you say that he has a big secret?"
Shan Fucai looked up at the dark clouds over the slums. He didn't know where Ruan Ziying got her optimism from.
"The octagonal seal, the corrupted creatures, and the Fallen Ones are almost immortal within the octagonal seal. I don't even know if Fang Heng can survive inside."
"What if?"
"The trump card of the Revolution Society has personally come out. Even if all of us work together, we won't be able to do anything to him, unless…"
"Unless what?"
"Unless Fang Heng is strong enough to hold on under Sheng Tao's pursuit until Boss returns."
Ruan Ziying was shocked as she asked, "What? Are you saying that your boss will come too?"
"On the way here, he is also very interested in the high concentration of pollution that he had never seen before."
Ruan Ziying swallowed her saliva carefully.
She had read about this name countless times in books and from other people's discussions.
Would he have a chance to see him in person today?

1533 Remains
In the broken church, Fang Heng, Yu Jiayuan, and the others climbed out of a large prayer room at the back of the church.
Fang Heng quickly looked around and frowned.
Corrupted creatures were everywhere. A large number of corrupted creatures gathered in the church. There were also the Fallen Ones.
The two Fallen Ones who were gathered saw Fang Heng coming out from the bottom of the passage. Their eyes turned red and they immediately rushed towards Fang Heng.
"Swoosh!!"
Fang Heng waved his hand.
Holy Light flashed!
The Book of Oaths floated in the air.
The scattered holy remnant chapters formed streaks of light that shot out and easily pierced through the foreheads of the two Fallen Ones.
The two Fallen Ones groaned and fell.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!!!"
The holy remnant chapters continued to fly out, bombarding the Fallen Ones' bodies continuously, causing holy explosions again and again until the corpses were completely purified and could not be revived.
Amazing!
This was the power of an Oracle!
This scene greatly boosted the morale of the believers of the church!
"Lord Oracle, over there! Over there! The supply warehouse is in that direction. Please follow us."
"Hmm, let's go"
Fang Heng left the prayer room under the guidance of the believers and headed to the right.
They didn't encounter many Fallen Ones along the way.
Fang Heng did not hold back. In order to save time, he used the power of the Book of Oaths to quickly kill them.
Soon, everyone arrived at the warehouse.
The Holy Court had always been developing in the slums, and their family background could be said to be poor.
The warehouse was filled with some old tools.
Opening the door of the warehouse, the believers rushed in and moved the goods with them.
Before he could push out the transport cart hidden in the deepest part of the warehouse, a believer rushed over and reported to Fang Heng in a low voice, "Not good, Lord Oracle, a large number of Fallen Ones are coming!"
Fang Heng frowned.
They were targeting him again!
The Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures outside were obviously chasing after him. His presence here would affect the progress of the material transportation.
"Yu Jiayuan, you stay here and bring them to transport the supplies back underground. I'll distract the Fallen Ones outside. We'll meet at the bottom of the passage."
Time was running out, so Yu Jiayuan immediately nodded and said, "Alright, be careful!"
"Yes."
Fang Heng replied and turned back to the corridor outside.
Outside the warehouse, more than a dozen Fallen Ones were rushing over from the other side of the passage.
"Fang Heng!"
"You can't run away!"
Seeing Fang Heng, the red light in the eyes of the Fallen Ones shone a few times, and they rushed toward Fang Heng in unison.
Book of Oaths!
The Book of Oaths in front of Fang Heng once again emitted a dazzling golden light!
Light exploded!
More than 20 streaks of golden light flew forward continuously!
"Boom! Boom Boom Boom!!!"
A dense explosion of Holy Light erupted in the passage.
In just half a minute, more than a dozen Fallen Ones were instantly killed by the holy remnant chapter!
Whoosh!
Fang Heng took back the Book of Oaths. It was filled with energy.
It felt as if he had turned on an automatic cheat.
After all, it was a holy artifact.
It was very useful!
In order to protect Yu Jiayuan and the others in the warehouse from being affected, Fang Heng thought about it and ran towards the hall of the broken church.
That place was further away from the warehouse, and the terrain was wider. It was more suitable for the Book of Oaths to be used, and it would be more convenient for him to run.
As he cleared the Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures, the energy in the Book of Oaths was rapidly decreasing.
Fang Heng estimated the remaining energy of the Book of Oaths and quickly stepped into the hall of the broken church.
"Eh? That's…"
As soon as he entered the hall, Fang Heng's pupils constricted. His gaze instantly focused on the two pillars at the edge of the hall's entrance.
Those two people!
They were investigators from the Occult Investigation Committee!
Fang Heng recognized their attire and appearance at a glance.
These two were clearly the investigators who had come to hunt him down previously. They had even fought.
Now, they had been completely corrupted…
The lower half of their bodies had already turned into disgusting rotting matter like mud. They wrapped themselves around the left and right pillars in a dense mass, almost fusing with the pillars. Their twisted heads were attached to the topmost part of their rotting bodies, looking especially disgusting and strange.
"Gulp gulp…"
The surrounding corrupted matter was continuously absorbed by their bodies.
"It's absorbing its own kind…"
Fang Heng stood where he was and sized up the entire hall.
Fang Heng had physical discomfort with the creatures. He muttered to himself in a low voice, and the illusion of an alchemy magic array flashed in his right eye.
[Hint: The player has discovered an object through the omniscient eye-unknown life form (corrupted)(elite).]
Elite-level corrupted lifeform.
Fang Heng's eyes were focused on an oval-shaped object in the middle of the unknown corrupted creature's body.
What was that?
Fang Heng had a strange feeling.
It was as if something was being nurtured in this sphere.
Fang Heng carefully took a few steps forward, wanting to see more clearly and at the same time be wary of his surroundings.
The rear of the hall collapsed due to the explosion. The area behind was shrouded in darkness, but there were no Fallen Ones or corrupted creatures in sight.
It seemed like they had absorbed it.
Similarly, the Fallen Ones and the Corrupted outside seemed to know of their existence, and they did not continue to chase them into the hall.
"Chi! Chi Chi!!!"
Suddenly, several long and narrow dark brown spikes shot out from the rotten body!
"Hu!!"
Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat, and the sharp spike came straight at him. Following that, it curled up in the air! It wanted to completely drag him into it.
The Book of Oaths!
"Whoosh!"
The holy remnant chapter once again transformed into streaks of golden light that flew out from the Book of Oaths!
"Boom! Boom Boom!!!"
The corrupted spikes exploded under the bombardment of the Holy Light!
Fang Heng extended his hand and pointed at the unknown elite corrupted creature that was wrapped around the pillar!
"Whoosh! Whoosh!!!"
The dense holy remnant chapters flew out in the direction indicated by Fang Heng!
"Gulp…"
The corrupted creatures made a strange sound again.
Corrupted spikes shot out from every corner of its rotten body!
"Boom!!!"
Before the corrupted spikes that shot out from the decaying lifeform could spread forward, they were blasted apart by the holy remnant chapters! They were instantly annihilated by a golden light.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
The dense holy explosions lasted for more than ten seconds before the holy remnant chapters gradually flew back into the Book of Oaths in his hand.
The game notification appeared on his retina.
[Hint: The player has killed elite corrupted creatures*2. The player has discovered corrupted crystal*2.]
Eh?
Did something drop?
Corrupted crystals?
Fang Heng couldn't help but feel curious.
Previously, when he killed the Corrupted and Fallen Ones, he did not obtain any survival points or any items.
This time, a corrupted crystal suddenly appeared. What level of crystal was this?
Unique to the higher worlds? Was it also used to level up?
Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat as he observed the remains left behind by the unknown corrupted creatures.

1534 The Orb
Apart from the Holy Light piercing and Holy Light explosion, the holy remnant chapter also had multiple effects such as Holy Light purification.
The unknown corrosive substance had been completely purified, leaving two puddles of corrosive stains on the ground.
There were two dark crystals in the middle of the stains.
Fang Heng tried to wave his hand forward.
Two gray crystals flew toward Fang Heng.
Huh? What the hell!
Fang Heng's pupils contracted.
The crystals were still in mid-air, and suddenly, two dark shadows appeared from the darkness behind it!
"Swoosh!!!"
Black corrupted spike!
Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat.
The speed at which the corrupted spike stabbed out was almost twice as fast as before!
Before Fang Heng could take out the Book of Oaths again, the corrupted spike swept up in the air and sucked the two crystals into it. Then, it quickly shrank back into the darkness!
Hmm?
Its target was the corrupted crystal?
Fang Heng stared at the darkness behind him, and a layer of red light quickly attached to his pupils.
Through the special ability of the vampire bloodline, the darkness in front of him gradually became visible.
Fang Heng saw the huge black shadow entrenched in the collapsed area of the broken hall behind him.
So it was him.
"Bishop! Gan Honghua!"
Fang Heng stared at the monster from afar.
Like the two investigators before him, Gan Honghua had become a corrupted life form. The bottom of its body had already merged with the ruins below. A thick mass of rotting matter had formed, and it seemed impossible to move.
On top of his body, Gan Honghua's body was completely dead. His face still had the terrifying expression left behind before he died.
Similarly, Gan Honghua had the same ball-shaped object on its abdomen as the two investigators he had met before.
At this moment, Fang Heng finally saw what was growing on the corpse!
A red flower!
A beautiful black flower was born on the decomposed corpse!
Fang Heng stared at the ball-shaped flower that was about to bloom.
The flower had not fully bloomed, and most of it was hidden in the bud.
What was that?
The flower bud suddenly bloomed at an extremely fast speed!
A bright red flower emerged from the flower bud and formed a human face.
Xia Xi?!
Whoosh!
A strange ripple that was visible to the naked eye spread out from the flower!
Fang Heng instantly felt his consciousness go into a trance.
The illusion of a magic array appeared in his right eye.
Game notifications appeared on his retina.
[Hint: The player has discovered an object through the omniscient eye-unknown life form (corrupted)(elite).]
[Hint: The player is affected by spiritual illusion…]
[Hint: The player has been affected by the omniscient eye (alchemy)(occultism). This mental illusion attack is ineffective.]
Illusion attack!
Fang Heng broke out in a cold sweat and quickly took a few steps back.
In the advanced game world, any step taken seemed to lead to a trap. Fortunately, he had the omniscient eye, otherwise, he would have fallen for it again!
Fang Heng was extremely glad that he had decisively used his ultimate skill to absorb Albra's Pupil, allowing the omniscient eye to level up and gain the ability to see through illusions.
Swoosh!!
The Book of Oaths appeared in front of him.
Fang Heng pointed forward.
"Purification!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!
The golden light kept shooting out of the Book of Oaths and bombarded Gan Honghua's body.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
Under the dense bombardment of the golden Holy Light, the fluorides under Gan Honghua's corpse kept twisting and making muffled explosions.
Gan Honghua's tenacity was much stronger than Fang Heng had imagined!
He released the Book of Oaths with all his might!
Fang Heng bombarded the corrupted creature for three whole minutes until the energy in the Book of Oaths was completely exhausted.
Swoosh…
Without the support of the energy, the holy remnant chapter flew back to the Book of Oaths.
Fang Heng looked up again. Most of the rotting matter on his body had been cleaned up, and he looked like he was on the verge of death.
"Not dead yet."
Fang Heng looked at the game notification and realized that there was no kill notification.
He carefully walked forward, ready to try casting a few purification spells to see if he could completely get rid of the decay.
As he got closer, a game prompt appeared in Fang Heng's pupils.
[Hint: The player has discovered a special item-Hell Red Mandala (authentic)(damaged)(growing)(incomplete) through mid-tier natural science.]
Item: Hell's Red Mandala (authentic)(damaged)(growing)(incomplete).
Type: Plant, material.
Level: ??
Description: A flower of evil thoughts that living in hell can bloom after absorbing corruption, pollution, evil thoughts, chaos, and other powers. It has a powerful illusion ability and is an extremely rare material.
[Hint: The player can increase the natural science level to obtain more information.]
Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat.
A plant that blooms by feeding on decaying life forms?
Thinking back to how the corrupted lifeform could absorb the surrounding corrupted matter and how it tried to snatch the corrupted crystals, Fang Heng had a rough idea.
Wait a minute, what level would this plant be?
Things from hell shouldn't be too low ranking, right?
Could it be at S-level?
How about he bring her back?
Who cares! Take her away!
Although he had already obtained the Phoenix Firs, it was too big. It was still very troublesome to transfer it back to the real world.
He was already here, so he might as well bring another back!
Even if he couldn't complete the mission, he could still use it as a material.
Fang Heng took out a dagger from his backpack and cut it along the root of the Hell Red Mandala, wanting to cut it off and take it away.
"Pfft!!"
Purple-red blood kept splattering out from the corrupted matter cut by the knife.
Hmm?
Fang Heng quickly swung his knife a few times and couldn't help but put down the knife in his hand, frowning.
The situation didn't seem right.
As the knife in his hand continued to cut, the Hell Mandala's vitality was rapidly withering!
So the two were dependent on each other?
[Hint: The player has the skill-tree planting is not suitable for the current life form.]
[Hint: Forcefully transplanting will likely cause the tree to die.]
Fang Heng could not help but stop attacking the plant.
Gan Honghua, who had been corrupted, was already in a half-dead state.
The Red Hell Mandala used the corrupted Gan Honghua as its host.
If he killed Gan Honghua directly, the Mandala would probably die soon.
No, it couldn't be transplanted using normal methods.
Fang Heng hesitated.
Should he keep him for now? And then ask someone else in the future?
Fang Heng narrowed his eyes and stared at the Hell Mandala flower, deep in thought.
Or should he take the entire rotten thing along with the Hell Mandala?
However, doing so would greatly increase the level of pollution.
Fang Heng was observing when he suddenly noticed something in Gan Honghua's torn pocket.
That's right!
The orb.
The orb of the door to the underground Temple of Faith should be with Gan Honghua, right?
Fang Heng stepped forward and tried to check the pockets on the corpse.

1535 The Revolution Society
He didn't find any orb or key, but he found a tattered notebook.
The notebook was hidden in the inner pocket, covered in a thick layer of blood.
[Hint: The player has obtained an item-Gan Honghua's notebook.]
Description: A notebook kept by Bishop Gan Honghua. The surface is covered with a layer of the strength of the Holy God.
Fang Heng's eyes lit up. He flipped open the notebook and was about to take a closer look when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back.
He felt as if someone was watching him!
Whoosh!
Fang Heng quickly jumped to the side and turned his head to look behind.
At the entrance of the broken church, a young man about 25 years old stood on a fallen stone pillar.
To be precise, he was not standing. His feet seemed to be about two centimeters away from the ground as if he was floating on the ground. What was particularly eye-catching was that there was a red monster phantom attached to his shoulder.
Fang Heng realized that the young man's face was a little immature. His pupils flickered with a strange red light as he stared straight at him.
"I finally found you, demonic seed."
Demonic seed!
This was not the first time Fang Heng had heard this term. Looking at the young man in front of him, he felt a sense of extreme danger.
"Who are you?"
"Sheng Tao from the Revolution Society."
The shadow on his shoulder grinned, revealing his sharp teeth as it spoke, "Nice to meet you, Lord of the demonic seed, I'm Kuramodi!"
"The Revolution Society… Are you looking for me?" Fang Heng maintained his vigilance and slowly walked out from the blind spot behind him. He observed the escape routes around him and pointed upwards, "Did you guys make the eyes up there?"
Sheng Tao also stared at Fang Heng and whispered, "You ask too many questions."
Fang Heng looked at the red monster on Sheng Tao's shoulder and continued to ask, "What about you? Kuramodi? Who are you?
"You can see Kuramodi?" Sheng Tao's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard that. Then, he frowned deeply as he spoke, "I see. Then, all the more I can't let you off."
As he spoke, Sheng Tao suddenly raised his hand.
"Hu! Huff huff!"
Condensed fireball!
Almost instantly, more than 20 concentrated fireballs spun rapidly in Sheng Tao's palm!
Fang Heng immediately felt a strong pressure and quickly dodged to the side.
"Boom! Boom Boom Boom!!"
The condensed fireballs exploded on the ground, instantly bursting into balls of flames, turning a large area of the broken church into a sea of fire.
Fang Heng had just dodged the fireball attack, but before he could heave a sigh of relief, his hair stood on end again.
"Whoosh!"
He looked up and saw Sheng Tao rushing toward him again at an extremely fast speed.
"Hu!!"
Fang Heng swung the alloy metal rod in his hand forward.
"Pa!!!"
Fang Heng's pupils constricted.
The alloy metal rod in his hand was actually caught by the other party.
Did he catch it?!
The other party's strength attribute was actually not inferior to his at all!
"Bang!!"
Sheng Tao wanted to catch Fang Heng's rod with one hand, but when he reached out, a flash of surprise flashed across his eyes. Then, he pressed his left hand on his right wrist.
"Bang!!"
As the force surged, fine cracks appeared on the ground under Sheng Tao's feet.
"Go!!"
"Boom!!!"
Fang Heng felt a strange strength surging out of Sheng Tao's body, and he was sent flying by this huge force! The scenery in front of him rapidly retreated until he crashed into the rock wall behind him with a bang.
[Hint: The player received 2,355 points of impact damage.]
[Hint: The player is affected by the 'fractured bone' status.]
[Hint: The player has entered a stunned state…]
[Hint: The player's 'undying body' effect has been activated. The player has recovered from dizziness and bone fracture.]
[Hint: The player has received special attack damage. The player's pollution effect has increased…]
Sheng Tao put his hand in front of his eyes and looked at it. His eyes flashed with deep surprise.
He had misjudged Fang Heng's strength. The latter had very strong basic attributes.
It was clearly just a newly awakened demonic seed. How could it have such a physical fitness that far exceeded that of an ordinary person?
Sheng Tao frowned and looked at Fang Heng, who was lying in a pile of rubble. He flew toward him again.
There was a little doubt, but it was not important.
Get rid of him first!
"Hmm?"
Sheng Tao approached Fang Heng at full speed and suddenly noticed that the other party was trying to get up from the ground.
Whoosh!
A thick black fog overflowed in front of Sheng Tao's eyes.
Following that, an undead aura spread out rapidly! It was coming at them head-on!
Undead?
Sheng Tao was suspicious.
He didn't rush forward immediately. Instead, he slowed down and stopped outside the undead aura that was spreading out.
"Kuramodi, is he a member of the undead?"
The demon phantom on Sheng Tao's shoulder said, "I don't know. He's just trash from the Otherworld. Why are you so cautious? Don't ask so many questions. Just kill him. No matter who he is, he has a demonic seed on him. He must be killed!"
"Hurry up and go, he's just a mere undead! Don't tell me you're afraid of this!"
Sheng Tao snorted.
He had received the call and rushed here. He had no idea what Fang Heng was capable of, nor did he know what kind of special strength he possessed.
"Hmph, your information better be reliable."
Whoosh!
Sheng Tao approached the thick fog again.
Suddenly, Sheng Tao's heart skipped a beat.
What the hell!
Suddenly, a powerful wave of undead strength seeped out from the black fog!
The strength of the undead ripples that could be seen with the naked eye spread outwards!
"Whoosh!"
A long white saber appeared in Sheng Tao's hand and he slashed forward!
"Boom!!!"
The ripples that were attacking him were cut in half!
Huh?
Sheng Tao's pupils constricted!
After the ripples dissipated, a huge white saber light flashed out from the thick fog behind them!
The saber light was accompanied by a bone-chilling coldness!
In the blink of an eye, Sheng Tao's right hand was covered with a layer of red scales.
A thick layer of hellfire quickly burned on the long saber in his hand.
The long saber collided fiercely with the saber light!
"Boom!!!"
As the two strengths collided, Sheng Tao flew back.
In front of him, the aura of the death realm gradually dissipated, and the scene in the thick fog gradually appeared.
Sheng Tao stared ahead, his eyes flashing with vigilance.
"Kuramodi, is this what you meant by 'trash' from the Otherworld?"
In front of them were three Ice Bones' leaders, and behind them were rows and rows of giant Ice Bones!
Fang Heng stood at the back of the giant Ice Bones, clutching his shoulder that had just recovered from the fracture. His eyes were fixed on Sheng Tao and the shadow attached to his shoulder.
An opponent of unknown strength.
He had encountered the biggest crisis since he entered the advanced game world.
He had already used the Everlasting Moon skill, and his greatest reliance now was the Ice Bones.
"Is this what you rely on?"
Sheng Tao muttered to himself. His gaze seemed to pierce through the layers of Ice Bones and landed directly on Fang Heng.

1536 Counterattack
"Very powerful, but that's all."
Fang Heng stared at Sheng Tao.
What the hell was that?
After Sheng Tao finished his sentence, the phantom attached to his back actually started to burn rapidly. Red and blue flames were attached to the phantom's body!
"Boom!!!"
Sheng Tao bent over and charged forward. His speed increased by a few levels under the support of the fire!
"Hu! Hu hu hu!!!"
The leader of the Ice Bones also attacked with its ice soul slaying blade!
The huge blade blocked almost all of Sheng Tao's paths.
"Boom!"
The flaming long sword in Sheng Tao's hand collided with the ice soul slaying blade.
For a moment, light blue sword lights danced in the hall, and the entire hall was filled with huge sword lights. A figure surrounded the three Ice Bones' leaders and fought fiercely with them.
This was bad…
Most of the undead Bones' Bosses had AOE attacks, and they could also release skills like ice waves. However, the flames that enveloped Sheng Tao seemed to have resisted the negative effects.
Three against one, and they still couldn't win against him?
D*mn it!
Run!
Taking advantage of Sheng Tao being held back, Fang Heng left the undead Bones' leaders to deal with the enemy on the spot, then turned around and ran!
…..
In Punoze, deep within the Frost Hell, at the source of the sealed shady lines, at some point, a huge pot had appeared.
It was a pure black wok with a diameter of about five meters, and it was densely covered with alchemy patterns.
Ji Xiaobo was fiddling with something in front of the bottom of the big pot.
Suddenly, he sensed that something was wrong. He raised his head and looked around.
Just a moment ago, one-third of the giant-sized undead Bones in the hall had disappeared, and three of the undead Bones' leaders had also disappeared.
"Looks like Brother Fang has encountered a big problem. I have to hurry up…"
…
Fang Heng returned along the passage he came from.
What level of monsters were the people from the Revolution Society?
He had the upper hand against three mid-tier Bosses in the game world and such a huge pile of giant-sized undead Bones?
Being chased by such a person, Fang Heng felt that this trip was extremely unlucky.
This wave was a huge loss.
The Ice Bones was a consumable item.
One death meant one less!
Moreover, he did not even have the time to get his hands on the Hell Mandala!
The only good news was that after Sheng Tao appeared, those annoying corrupted creatures did not appear again, which made it a little easier for him to escape.
In the blink of an eye, Fang Heng went back through the underground passage and saw the believers of the Holy Court guarding the entrance of the passage.
"Lord Oracle! This way!"
Fang Heng hurried back to the rest area under the guidance of the believers.
The people from the Holy Court had already returned with the carts. Under Yu Jiayuan's command, they began to work with Fang Heng's zombie clones to move the excavated wasteland.
"How's the situation up there?"
Yu Jiayuan could feel the huge tremors coming from above from time to time, and she was very uneasy.
"I met a person from the Revolution Society called Sheng Tao. Do you know him?"
Yu Jiayuan's expression changed drastically when she heard this.
Sheng Tao from the Revolution Society!
Yu Jiayuan blurted out, "How did you provoke him?"
To be honest, Fang Heng also wanted to ask this question.
Yu Jiayuan was speechless.
Fang Heng was the first person to offend so many people.
The two of them were silent for half a second. Fang Heng asked, "You know him?"
"I've heard of him. He's the representative of the Revolution Society. I'm not sure about his strength, but he's definitely not someone we can deal with."
Yu Jiayuan became even more anxious. She hurriedly instructed the believers beside her, "Hurry! Move all the rocks over there and block the intersection!"
Fang Heng calculated silently.
No matter what, the undead Bones' leader was a mid-tier creature in the game world. It had all kinds of troublesome support skills and high HP.
Even if it couldn't beat him, it could still stall for time.
Every second it could delay him was precious!
However, it would still take a long time to dig a passage from here to leave the slums.
Was there really enough time?
Fang Heng rubbed his chin.
Yu Jiayuan saw that Fang Heng was deep in thought and didn't dare to say anything to disturb him. She just looked at him eagerly, until Fang Heng raised his head.
"What's wrong?"
"I have an idea. I'll go back to the Temple of Faith to take a look."
"Huh?"
"Don't worry, leave it to me. I'll handle it."
Fang Heng already had a plan.
According to the game log, the undead Bones leaders' HP was rapidly decreasing.
He estimated that it would take at least two to three hours to dig the passage from here.
The undead Bones' leaders definitely wouldn't be able to withstand the battle.
The only thing in his hand that could cause damage and interfere with Sheng Tao was the Book of Oaths.
He had to go back.
He would go to the Temple of Faith to recharge and then use the Book of Oaths to deal with Sheng Tao.
Stall for time!
…
In the Broken Church, Sheng Tao was also being held back by the three Ice Bones' leaders, and he felt a headache coming on.
It was a domain skill.
The area around the Ice Bones was frozen.
The three Ice Bones' leaders' domains overlapped each other, and the surroundings were bone-chilling. He could only rely on hellfire to maintain his condition.
Apart from that, there were also AOE attacks and undead scream skills that made him extremely annoyed.
The most troublesome thing was that the undead Bones' leaders' HP was extremely solid.
Sheng Tao couldn't get rid of the leaders in a short time.
It was rumored that Sheng Tao was a ruthless person.
In fact, this character setting was deliberately created by his people.
Sheng Tao had always been cautious.
He confirmed that there was no other passage to escape from the Holy Church, so he carefully dealt with the Ice Bones and reduced the leaders' HP.
Fang Heng was trapped inside anyway.
As he was entangled with undead Bones, Sheng Tao frowned.
What was that?
"Whoosh! Swoosh!!"
From his right, more than twenty golden streams of light flew toward him.
A sense of danger flashed across Sheng Tao's heart. He immediately raised his long sword to block.
"Bang! Bang Bang!!"
The long sword collided with the golden stream of light, and the stream of light exploded with a second boom!
Sheng Tao placed his hands in front of him and was pushed back by the continuous holy explosions.
While retreating, Sheng Tao looked to his right.
He saw Fang Heng holding the Book of Oaths!
It was him!
Sheng Tao's eyes were filled with more doubts.
Was he from the Holy Court? Or was he from the undead?
He could actually switch between the two forces at will?
Whoosh! Swoosh!!
The holy remnant chapters which had lost their power, were quickly absorbed into the Book of Oaths. After recovering its energy, it flew toward Sheng Tao again.
Sheng Tao knew that this thing was troublesome, so he quickly dodged it!
However, these remnant chapters had already locked onto him. Helpless, Sheng Tao could only rely on his long sword to blast the remnant chapters away!
He was already fully focused on dealing with the undead Bones, and now he had to deal with the holy remnant chapters. Sheng Tao's attack rhythm was instantly thrown into chaos.
"Hehe…"
Fang Heng chuckled in the dark.
If he couldn't win, he would play dirty.
If he had known this would happen, he would have recorded some skills that could restore the Bones' HP back in the Necromancer Association. If he had known this would happen, he could have hidden behind the Ice Bones' leader and healed it, buying some time.
In just a short moment, the undead Bones even cooperated with Fang Heng's Book of Oaths to launch a wave of counterattacks, forcing Sheng Tao to retreat.
"Hu!"
Demon wings!

1537 Delaying
A dark phantom appeared behind Sheng Tao and blocked all the attacks.
Swoosh!!
Sheng Tao tapped the wall lightly with his toes and retreated instead of advancing. His body turned into a stream of light, trying to avoid the attacks of the Ice Bones from the side, and headed straight for Fang Heng.
"Whoosh!"
Fang Heng saw Sheng Tao's actions and immediately retreated.
What a joke. Ever since he entered the game, he had been relying on zombie clones to fight. His positioning was well-practiced.
Fang Heng had been hiding among the layers of summoned creatures from the beginning to the end. When he saw that Sheng Tao's movement had changed slightly, he immediately dodged to the back.
Seeing that the Book of Oaths had less than a third of its energy left, Fang Heng turned around and ran.
"Tsk, you really can endure it."
Fang Heng saw that Sheng Tao did not continue to chase after him and felt a little pity.
Otherwise, he could still exhaust the other party.
Alright, then let's compete in patience!
Fang Heng quickly returned to the underground and prepared to extract energy from the Holy Door again.
…
"Boom!!!"
In the middle of the hall of the broken church, the flame phantom attached to Sheng Tao's body erupted again.
Kuramodi, who was perched on Sheng Tao's shoulder, felt that he had been played. He couldn't help but shout, "Ah! I'm so angry! That idiot! Sheng Tao! Chase after him! I want to swallow him whole!"
"Calm down, Kuramodi! It's useless. He just wants to provoke you. He wants to exhaust our strength."
Sheng Tao remained calm.
He had tried a few times before and even deliberately exposed a few flaws, pretending to be weak, but it was useless.
He couldn't catch up to Fang Heng at all
So Sheng Tao quickly gave up on this plan and regained control of the original rhythm, continuing to fight with the Ice Bones' leaders.
"Sheng Tao, I have to remind you that he can see me."
"I know."
Sheng Tao avoided the ice crystals and said in a deep voice, "He has already awakened."
Kuramodi's angry gaze gradually calmed down and turned into a deep fear, "It's good that you understand this. Once he escapes, not to mention whether the Lord will punish him, if he continues to grow, we will all be in trouble."
"I know. There's already a demonic seed that hasn't been found yet, and now there's a second one…"
Sheng Tao answered, and his heart suddenly moved.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!!!"
He was slightly distracted, and more than twenty dark golden flashes appeared from the corner again.
The phantom of the dark wings behind Sheng Tao opened once again, blocking the frontal attack of the golden holy remnant chapter!
"Boom!! Boom Boom Boom!!!"
The subsequent explosion of damage sent Sheng Tao flying backward!
"Ice crystal pierce!!"
Chi! Chi chi chi!!
A large number of ice crystals suddenly shot out from the ground behind Sheng Tao!
"You again!"
Sheng Tao turned his head and stared at Fang Heng, who had emerged from the sea of bones.
It's not over yet!
After being repeatedly teased, Sheng Tao was still fine, but Kuramodi was completely furious.
"Sheng Tao! I want to destroy him! I said it!"
"Boom!"
A thick red aura boomed with a bang and large pieces of ice crystals under Sheng Tao's feet were shattered by the aura!
Fang Heng was also affected by the scorching aura from the explosion. He could not help but reach out to block in front of him.
[Hint: You have been affected by the skill-Waves of Rage. Your HP has been reduced by 500.]
Swoosh swoosh swoosh…
The holy remnant chapter which had lost its power, was once again absorbed into the Book of Oaths.
In just a minute, the energy absorbed from the Book of Oaths was completely consumed. Fang Heng put away the Book of Oath and ran away without looking back, not giving Sheng Tao any chance to pursue him.
"D*mn it! D*mn it! D*mn it!"
Kuramodi watched Fang Heng run away again and again, and could not help but shout.
It had never been played by a human like today!
"Fang Heng…"
Sheng Tao's eyes were also filled with anger.
"Kuramodi, get rid of one first."
"Good!"
Sheng Tao stood there with rapt attention. Fine red lines gradually appeared under his exposed skin.
"Tsk!"
The hellfire on his sword instantly turned scarlet.
"Boom!!!"
The Ice Bones fell back under the sword.
"Hahahahaha! Good! Sheng Tao! Beautifully done!"
…
[Hint: The Ice Bones' leader you controlled has been attacked and died.]
Outside the Holy Door, Fang Heng, who was controlling the Book of Oaths to absorb energy, had a thought.
It had been nearly an hour since Sheng Tao appeared, and the Bones' leader had finally suffered casualties.
As the power of the Holy Light on the dark golden door gradually decreased, the absorption speed of the Book of Oaths also greatly slowed down.
"I still need more power."
Fang Heng stopped the Book of Oaths in his hand.
The Holy Door could no longer provide the Book of Oaths with more energy.
If there was a Temple of Faith behind the door, then there should be the power of faith that Gan Honghua had accumulated over the years.
Using the power of faith to charge the Book of Oaths should be faster!
Direct attack!
Fang Heng took a step forward, clenched his fist, and blasted forward.
"Boom!!"
There was a loud crash.
A layer of dark golden light appeared on the golden door.
The light was already extremely dim compared to the beginning.
"Boom!!!"
The weak light screen exploded under Fang Heng's punch.
"Crack, crack, crack…"
Without the protection of the Holy Light, the metal door creaked and opened a gap.
"This is…the Temple of Faith…"
Fang Heng muttered to himself. He pushed open the door and stood at the door to observe the situation inside the hall.
The interior of the hall was decorated in a style similar to the Temple of Zeus in the Zombie Apocalypse. It was roughly circular in shape, with more than ten pillars scattered in the hall.
White sculptures were placed at the edge of the hall, and murals depicting the holy realm were drawn on the walls.
The sculptures here all had the holy attribute, causing the entire hall to be enveloped in a layer of the holy attribute.
It should be able to provide some experience points for the Temple of Zeus.
Unfortunately, it was difficult to take all of them away in this situation.
Eh? That was…
Fang Heng's gaze focused on the bottles around the room.
If one didn't observe them carefully, one might mistake them for ordinary decorative bottles.
In fact, this was the Bottle of Faith that he had seen before!
Good stuff!
At a glance, there were hundreds of Bottles of Faith piled up in the room.
It contained the power of faith?
Fang Heng strode into the hall.
Hmm?
What was that?
Fang Heng suddenly felt something. He looked up at the ceiling and frowned.
It was a magic array!
Unlike previously, this time, dense magic arrays were drawn on the ceiling.
The magic array engraved on the ceiling was at least twice as difficult to draw as it was on the ground.
This was especially true for such a large-scale magic array.
"Swoosh, swoosh swoosh swoosh…!"
The alchemy array in Fang Heng's pupils slowly rotated.

1538 Blueprint
[Hint: The player has discovered an unknown magic array through the pupil of alchemy. The magic array is confirmed to be related to alchemy, sacred study, and the occult.]
[Hint: The player's current skill has been determined. The player has obtained partial information about the unknown magic array.]
Alchemy magic array-alchemy demon.
Description: A magic array that targets creatures from hell. When activated, it can cause destructive damage to targets that step into the magic array. It can also cause a large amount of damage to other undead and evil creatures.
[Hint: The player can observe this magic array to obtain more information.]
Hell creatures!
Looking at the description, Fang Heng couldn't help but have a thought.
Sheng Tao!
Was he a creature from hell?
At the very least, the red phantom on his shoulder looked like a creature from hell!
Even if they weren't, they should still be within the range of the magic array.
He could give it a try!
He would think of a way to lure Sheng Tao over and then kill him completely!
Fang Heng looked around, thinking about how to lure Sheng Tao over and how to use the magic array to catch him off guard.
It was challenging.
He had to plan carefully.
Fang Heng had already noticed that Sheng Tao's fighting style was more cautious.
On the other hand, the demon on his shoulder was emotionally unstable and was easily provoked.
Fang Heng was deep in thought when he suddenly felt that something was a little strange.
So Gan Honghua had set up a magic array here to deal with demons?
It was built on the ceiling and was relatively hidden. But why did he have to establish it in the Temple of Faith?
In theory, shouldn't a magic array be built here to convert faith?
He felt that something was wrong.
Could it be that he had overlooked something?
"Swoosh…!"
Fang Heng raised his head again to observe the magic array. The alchemy magic array in his pupils began to spin faster, and a channeling bar appeared above his head.
[Hint: The player is simulating an alchemy magic array.]
[Hint: The player has mastered various academic skills and basic attributes. The player has discovered that the magic array is defective.]
Fang Heng's heart sank when he received the game hint.
Alchemy demon formation!
It turned out that the difficulty of creating this magic array was actually an SS-level super-sized magic array!
If he were to personally set it up, even with the help of the omniscient eye, it would be difficult to complete it.
Moreover, this magic array required a huge amount of energy to activate.
Where could he find such a massive source of energy?
What was even more incomprehensible to Fang Heng was that the magic array on the ceiling was only superficial. A large part of it was not completed at all and was directly filled in in a way that fooled laymen.
It looked very intimidating, but as long as one met an expert, one could find something wrong with a closer look.
"Strange…"
What was the point of setting up a fake magic array here?
Fang Heng felt even more strange.
That's right!
He suddenly remembered the notebook he found on Gan Honghua's body. Perhaps he could find some clues in the notebook.
Fang Heng flipped out his notebook from his backpack and began to read through it.
At first, Gan Honghua's notebook was filled with some cultivation insights into the sacred study. In the end, it was mostly Gan Honghua's brainwashing of himself.
However, there was a bit of information that he casually recorded that made Fang Heng a little concerned.
[This is already the seventh year I've stayed in Watts. Ever since I received the guidance of the holy realm and came to this world, I've always prayed.]
[I believe that the demons have already affected this world. This is a test for me by the Holy Court. I need to find a place to settle down and gather faith. I need to wait for the Saintess to descend and the sins will be expelled.]
[Neither the Revolution Society nor the Conservatives can stop the revolution. This world has been completely controlled by the demons. This is an unchangeable fact. The Occult Society is also related to the demons. No one wants us to appear in this world. We are alone and helpless here.]
[I know this is a test for me. I've already found a suitable place, the slums.]
[There are many desperate people here. They are in hell, but they still have hope. I found a foothold here.]
[…]
[The 79th day. It has been 79 days since the last report on the ritual. I have a bad feeling that the Fallen Ones may have succeeded in controlling the demonic seed.]
[Will this world fall into disaster again?]
[…]
[I saw the light of dawn. I received news from the holy realm. Under the guidance of the Saintess, I began to plan. I thought of a way to collect the power of faith and destroy the demons. This was the final step to awaken the Saintess' power.]
[I'm honored to be the most important part of the Saintess' plan.]
[…]
[This is the holy realm's trust in me.]
[It's a pity that it's too long to collect faith here. I don't dare to recruit believers wantonly. This will attract the attention of outsiders. At this rate, it will take at least a hundred years to complete the magic array. Can I really hold on until that day?].
[May God protect us].
[The demonic seed has appeared. I have a feeling that this world is about to fall into turmoil. Some of them are spying on the power of the demonic seed. This may be good news. Demons are a group of creatures filled with Chaos. They are keen on killing each other. I can hide here in peace and accumulate strength.]
Fang Heng carefully flipped through the contents of the notebook, his heart thumping rapidly.
Gan Honghua's notebook also mentioned the demonic seed!
However, after looking at it twice, he still could not figure out what the demonic seed was.
Fang Heng roughly analyzed that Gan Honghua had been preaching in the slums for more than ten years and had collected a large amount of the power of faith. It was most likely to help Saintess Viona eliminate the demons and complete the awakening of the Saintess' soul power.
Just by relying on that deceptive magic array?
Something didn't seem right.
Unfortunately, the contents of the notebook ended here.
Fang Heng tried to quickly flip to the last few pages of the notebook, and his pupils suddenly constricted.
Starting from the last page, the notebook was filled with all kinds of blueprints.
Eh? It was actually a blueprint for the construction of the Temple of Faith!
Fang Heng raised his eyebrows, and a line of game hints appeared on his retina.
[Hint: The player received the Temple of Faith blueprint.]
[Item: Blueprint-Temple of Faith.]
Type: Construction blueprint.
Description: The player can build a Temple of Faith (sacred study) through the blueprint after preparing the materials.
Description: The Temple of Faith is an auxiliary building of the Temple of Zeus (It can also be built independently, but it cannot provide the world rating and establish the spread of the sacred study in the world). It can absorb, transform, and store the faith of believers, and provide building level experience for the Temple of Zeus.
Good stuff!
It would be useful once he went back!
Fang Heng carefully observed the contents of the blueprint in the notebook. Suddenly, his heart moved. He carefully flipped through it again and confirmed it several times.

1539 Breakthrough Point
"I see!"
Fang Heng's eyes flashed with light.
The notebook didn't only record the construction blueprint of the Temple of Faith. To be precise, the notebook recorded the detailed blueprint of the Temple of Faith in front of him.
Gan Honghua had greatly modified this place!
Fang Heng looked up at the magic array in the sky and immediately understood why Gan Honghua had built it.
Other than the magic array, there was also a pseudo-holy weapon hidden in the temple of faith!
A holy weapon bestowed by the holy realm!
This was Gan Honghua's real killing move against the demons!
"Holy weapon-Holy beam space."
It could seal the enemy's power in an extremely small space and suppress its power!
With just a seal?
Why didn't they just kill him?
Fang Heng flipped through the contents of the notebook again and immediately had a rough guess.
Perhaps Gan Honghua needed to seal the demon and then hand it over to Saintess Viona, who would personally purify it.
Only by doing it herself could Viona complete the awakening and advancement of the Saintess' soul power.
According to what was recorded in the notebook, the pseudo-holy weapon, the holy beam space, had powerful strength and could deal with demons. However, it needed to rely on a huge amount of the power of faith in order to use it.
Therefore, in theory, a holy weapon could also deal with that fellow outside!
Let's give it a try!
Fang Heng's spirits were lifted, and he walked straight to the stone wall on the right.
On the stone wall were murals depicting the scene of the holy realm.
Fang Heng observed it for a while, then compared it to the notebook in his hand and reached out to press on a certain position on the mural.
"Ka…"
A mechanism was triggered.
A layer popped out from the wall beside Fang Heng.
There were 12 one-meter-long black rods neatly placed in the middle.
[Hint: The player has discovered a special item-holy beam space (fake)(inferior).]
Item: Holy beam space.
Level: Holy weapon (fake)(inferior).
Description: A pseudo-holy weapon created by imitating the holy realm's holy beam space. It can be activated by absorbing the power of faith and has a powerful seal. The time of the seal is related to the strength of the power of faith absorbed by the holy beam space and the strength of the sealed enemy.
Description: An imitation. It will automatically break after one use. Due to the difference in the quality of the imitation, the seal will explode violently after a maximum of 72 hours. The explosion will cause great damage to the surrounding environment.
Description: This item needs to be used in conjunction with a magic array. It has a suppressive effect on demons, undead, evil, and other elemental creatures.
Fang Heng observed the item's description and understood it in his heart.
Therefore, in theory, as long as there was enough faith, the holy beam space could even directly seal the demons in hell!
If he used it to seal Sheng Tao…
Fang Heng switched to the sacred study state and reached out to grab the black rod.
Whoosh!
The long rod emitted a faint glow when it touched his palm, but it quickly dissipated.
The holy beam space was different from an ordinary holy weapon. It needed to be coordinated with a magic array and absorb the power of faith to be used.
The conditions were a little harsh.
Fang Heng opened Gan Honghua's notebook again.
The notebook had detailed instructions on how to control the magic array.
The game notifications appeared again.
[Hint: It is detected that the player has advanced occultism. Learning requirements for special magic array-holy beam space have been lowered.]
[Hint: The player has met the requirements for elementary sacred technique and elementary alchemy. The player has met the requirements for learning.]
"Learning."
Fang Heng thought to himself.
A slow channeling bar quickly appeared above his head.
[Hint: The player has learned magic array-holy beam space.]
A moment later, Fang Heng closed his notebook and shifted his gaze to the Bottle of Faith in the hall. He slowly walked to the Bottle of Faith and threw a punch.
"Bang!!"
The bottle exploded under Fang Heng's punch.
Silver specks of light spilled out from the broken bottle.
The power of faith.
To the naked eye, it looked like a faint silver light spot.
Fang Heng stretched out his hand and summoned the Book of Oaths.
Under the effect of the Book of Oaths, the silver speck of light was quickly drawn into the book and absorbed.
[Hint: The Book of Oaths has absorbed the power of faith, the energy of the Book of Oaths has increased greatly…]
In terms of conversion rate, the power of faith had a huge advantage.
A dark silver halo appeared around the Book of Oaths, and it was filled with energy in just a few seconds!
Fang Heng put away the Book of Oaths and scanned the surroundings of the hall one last time. He simulated the plan against Sheng Tao in his mind again.
He would use the magic array and the holy weapon to seal Sheng Tao!
The success rate was over 80%.
Do it!
Rather than fleeing, it was better to take the initiative.
Directly finish him off!
Fang Heng's eyes flashed with determination.
The two believers had been waiting outside the door for more than ten minutes. When they saw Fang Heng finally walk out of the hall, they asked carefully, "Lord Oracle, are you alright?"
"Yes."
Fang Heng nodded and said in a deep voice, "Something happened. We need to plan."
"Please instruct us, Lord Oracle!"
…
In the broken church, Sheng Tao was still on high alert. He maintained his rhythm and kept flashing between the two Ice Bones, continuously reducing the HP of the leader of the Ice Bones.
He could tell that the leader of the Ice Bones would not last long.
Soon.
"Whoosh!"
Several streaks of light shot out from the shadows on the right!
Here it came again!
Sheng Tao was alarmed. The moment the holy remnant chapter appeared, he reacted in advance and spread his demon wings.
Boom!! Boom!!!
The impact from the second explosion of Holy Light caused Sheng Tao to fly backward!
Sheng Tao quickly adjusted his body in the air. His eyes narrowed as he noticed Fang Heng among the Ice Bones.
A gap!
Previously Fang Heng had three Ice Bones' leaders and a large number of giant-sized elite Ice Bones guarding him. Now, with one leader down, the strength of the protection had been reduced by two times.
In addition, Fang Heng's positioning was a little bolder than before.
The two Ice Bones' leaders were also quite far away from him.
This was a good opportunity!
Kill him!
Sheng Tao was cautious, but when he saw an opportunity, he did not hesitate!
"Boom!"
The scorching hellfire that enveloped Sheng Tao's body burned faster!
A scorching heat wave visible to the naked eye spread out in all directions!
The ripples of power that spread out even slowed the attacks of the two Ice Bones' leaders in front of them.
Swoosh!
Taking advantage of this moment of stun, Sheng Tao's figure flew through the air, passing through the gap between the two Ice Bones' attacks!
It passed through!
Sheng Tao stared at Fang Heng, who was hiding behind the elite Ice Bones.
He saw a look of surprise and horror on Fang Heng's face as if he did not expect him to be able to break through the attacks of the two Ice Bones in an instant.
All that was left in front of them were giant elite Ice Bones.
The giant creature's huge body actually restrained them in some places!
Their movements were far from as fast as the leader creature!

1540 Seduction
As long as he passed through them, he could directly take down Fang Heng!
It was as easy as flipping a palm!
Fang Heng!
Sheng Tao's eyes flickered with a cold killing intent. His speed rose to the extreme and he flew straight towards Fang Heng!
The distance between the two sides was rapidly closing!
Suddenly, a change occurred!
"Boom! Boom Boom Boom!!!"
The surrounding giant-sized Ice Bones suddenly exploded!
"Not good!"
Sheng Tao's pupils constricted!
Self-destruction!
Hundreds of giant-sized Ice Bones self-destructed at the same time!
The rumbling sounds were endless!
The shattered bone fragments exploded in the air for a second or third time!
Was he risking his life…
Sheng Tao was cautious by nature. He considered that Fang Heng still had the Book of Oaths, and was also worried that the previous flaw might be a trap deliberately set by Fang Heng, he simply stopped in his tracks and defended himself with all his might. The phantom with the pair of wings behind his back enveloped his entire body to block the explosions from all directions.
"Boom Boom Boom!! Boom Boom!!!"
The explosions lasted for a full second.
When the explosions were over, Sheng Tao looked up in the direction Fang Heng had fled in a panic.
"What are you doing? That bug actually escaped! Hurry up and chase after him!"
Kuramodi could not help but roar, "What are you waiting for? Sheng Tao! He's already at the end of his rope!"
Sheng Tao didn't answer. Instead, he turned around and scanned his surroundings carefully.
Other than the two Ice Bones' leaders, all the giant-sized undead Bones in the hall had self-destructed.
Was it a trap?
Sheng Tao quickly thought about it.
He didn't think so.
This was Fang Heng's panicked reaction.
Chase!
Ignoring the two Ice Bones' leaders chasing after him, Sheng Tao quickly chased after Fang Heng.
Fang Heng had already returned to the underground area of the cathedral through the passage.
He had invested a lot!
The giant-sized elite Ice Bones were all killed in one wave.
He had originally thought that he could bring some trouble to Sheng Tao.
In the end, he still underestimated Sheng Tao.
The self-destruction did not cause any damage to the other party.
The bait had already been scattered. Next, it was up to the other party to see if they would take the bait!
Fang Heng quickly ran toward the Temple of Faith and returned to the hall. He set up a simple defensive magic array on the spot.
Sheng Tao carefully followed the direction Fang Heng had escaped in. His speed was not fast.
Just now, he had been distracted by Fang Heng, and the hellfire enveloping his body had dimmed a little.
"Kuramodi, how long can you last?"
"Don't worry, there are at least two hours left!" Kuramodi angrily looked in the direction Fang Heng had fled and said in a deep voice, "Hurry up and catch up! I don't want to play games with that rat anymore! Kill him immediately! Immediately! Right now!"
"I know. His body is already stained with the aura of pollution. He can't escape."
Sheng Tao sensed the direction Fang Heng was running in and chased after him with big steps.
They arrived before a dark golden door.
Sheng Tao stopped again.
He sensed the power of the holy attribute from the door.
"Holy Court…"
Sheng Tao muttered to himself. He became vigilant and pushed open the door.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak…"
Sheng Tao saw Fang Heng, who was standing in the deepest part of the circular hall, through the gap in the door.
"Hahahahaha! I've finally found you! Aren't you good at running? Run! Continue!"
The red phantom attached to Sheng Tao's shoulder, Kuramodi, saw that Fang Heng was trapped and laughed loudly, shouting, "Let me see if you can run again!"
Fang Heng stared at Sheng Tao, a thin layer of cold sweat forming on his forehead.
"Who are you people, and what is a demonic seed?"
Kuramodi laughed wildly, "Hehe, do you want to know? Why should I tell you? You don't have the right to speak to us now…"
"Sheng Tao, finish him off! Hurry up! What are you waiting for!?"
Sheng Tao didn't go forward.
He did not enter the hall rashly. Instead, he stood outside the hall and looked around cautiously. Finally, his gaze stopped on the ceiling.
"Looks like it's a huge magic array. Is this your plan?"
Sheng Tao noticed the dense magic array patterns on the ceiling.
"I didn't expect the Holy Court to set up a magic array here."
Sheng Tao's eyes turned cold. He looked at Fang Heng again and said, "A rat is a rat. It likes to hide in the dark underground and do dirty things."
Sheng Tao raised his hand toward the ceiling.
Whoosh! Swoosh!!!
Several high-speed spinning condensed fireballs flew out of Sheng Tao's hands.
"Boom!! Boom Boom Boom!!!"
The ceiling exploded under the bombardment of the fireballs!
Burning rocks kept falling from the ceiling. The magic array was also destroyed.
Seeing that the magic array on the ceiling had been seen through, Fang Heng did not say a word. His frown deepened, and his hands quickly condensed a mark in front of him. A Book of Oaths appeared in front of him.
"Protect!"
Swoosh!!
The small magic array that Fang Heng had just set up under his feet was activated.
With the power of the magic array, a holy shield appeared in the hall, sealing the entrance of the Hall of Faith.
"Hahahaha! Just this?"
Kuramodi looked at Fang Heng, who had been forced into a corner, and could not help but laugh, "No way! Don't tell me you think you can stop us with this little trick!"
Fang Heng ignored Kuramodi and stared at Sheng Tao. The Book of Oaths in his hand switched to the Book of the Dead and he asked again, "What exactly is a demonic seed?"
"You don't need to know."
Sheng Tao saw Fang Heng's small action and casually waved his hand forward.
"Boom!!"
A crack appeared on the Holy Light barrier before Sheng Tao's eyes and then it exploded!
Sheng Tao strode into the hall.
"If you have any other tricks, show them to me."
"Stop! Wait!"
Fang Heng shouted and reached out to stop the two of them. He gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "I'll go with you! Let me live!"
"Sorry, it's too late."
Whoosh!
Sheng Tao answered and sped up toward Fang Heng.
Eh?
Just as he dashed forward, Sheng Tao suddenly had a thought.
He suddenly noticed a strange smile on Fang Heng's face.
Why was he smiling?
Sheng Tao saw the phantom of a high-speed rotating magic array appear in Fang Heng's right eye.
What was that?!
Sheng Tao instinctively had a bad feeling.
Could it be a trap?
No!
He had already confirmed that there were no large-scale magic arrays in the hall. There were only one or two small-scale magic arrays. Such powerful magic arrays would definitely not be able to harm him.
Fang Heng stood on the spot and then he formed a seal with both hands and spat out a few words.
"Soul impact!!"
Sheng Tao was shocked. Then, he felt an intense pain in his sea of consciousness. His consciousness blurred for a moment.
He didn't know how much time had passed. It seemed to only be an instant, but it also felt like a few days had passed. When Sheng Tao came back to his senses, he heard a sudden explosion in his ears.
"Boom! Boom Boom!!"
What the hell!
Was it under his feet?!
A trap!

1541 Holy Beam Space
The floor of the entire hall suddenly shattered, and huge pieces of shrapnel fell down!
Sheng Tao felt as if there was a heavy boulder on his shoulder. He could not maintain his flight in the air, and his body fell.
It was the effect of the magic array!
Sheng Tao quickly looked around to find the source of the strength.
He saw Fang Heng at first glance!
Fang Heng, who was also falling, was not far from him!
Sheng Tao saw the way Fang Heng looked at him.
Their gazes met briefly in the air!
That gaze made Sheng Tao feel an unprecedented sense of danger.
"Kuramodi!"
Roar!!!
The demon phantom let out a roar.
Scorching hellfire instantly surrounded Sheng Tao, and the heat wave spread out from Kuramodi!
Sheng Tao pointed at Fang Heng.
"Swoosh! Swoosh!!"
A dense concentrated fireball flew out from his fingertips and boomed Fang Heng.
At the same time, the Book of Oaths appeared in front of Fang Heng again.
A golden stream of light burst out from the Book of Oaths in front of Fang Heng!!
Whoosh! Swoosh!!
The stream of light went straight at the concentrated fireball, causing a violent explosion in midair!
"Boom! Boom Boom Boom!!!"
Amidst the dense explosions, two fireballs still broke through the layers of protection of the Book of Oaths and headed straight for Fang Heng.
Shield!
"Buzz…!"
A blood-red barrier appeared in front of Fang Heng.
The vampires' barrier!
"Boom!"
The barrier could not last for more than half a second before it exploded! Fang Heng was sent flying by the weakened concentrated fireball and crashed into the stone wall behind him.
[Hint: The player's vampires' barrier has failed.]
[Hint: The player has received condensed fireball damage, and HP reduced by 9,339 points.]
[Hint: The player has received continuous burning damage…]
[Hint: The player has entered the magic burning state…]
[Hint: The player's HP has recovered due to the effect of 'undying body'…]
"Just this? It's my turn now."
Fang Heng's body was embedded in the stone wall. He glanced at his own HP and a cold smile appeared on his face. He stared at Sheng Tao, and the magic array in his right eye was spinning rapidly!
[Hint: The player is currently using the special ability of the omniscient eye. HP is consumed to activate the magic array…]
Sheng Tao was falling.
He also stared at Fang Heng closely, and an extremely strange feeling suddenly rose in his heart.
He had already lost his last chance to deal with Fang Heng!
"Bang! Bang! Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang!!!"
The sound of explosions rang in his ears.
Sheng Tao looked around.
In the air, the Bottles of Faith that fell along with the collapsed ground exploded!
Silver specks of light spilled out of the broken Bottles of Faith and floated in the air.
Bottles?
Was that silver light the power of faith?
What was he trying to do?
Swoosh!!
In the next moment, a scorching golden light suddenly rose from under his feet.
Not good!
Sheng Tao understood almost instantly.
Oh no! He had fallen into a trap!
It was actually a double-layered design!
The densely packed magic array on the ceiling was designed to confuse him. There was a second layer of design under the floor of the entire hall!
That was Fang Heng's real killer move!
D*mn it!!
There was no time for regrets. In the next moment, the scorching golden light that appeared on the magic array absorbed the stars in the sky.
The light instantly shone hundreds of times!
"Ah! D*mn it! What's that? Stop! Stop!!"
Kuramodi, who was attached to Sheng Tao's body, roared in pain as if he was being burned by hellfire.
"Stop right now!! Stop!!"
Fang Heng stared at Sheng Tao, who was falling from the sky and flicked his wrist.
Sheng Tao and the demon on his body had already been suppressed by the magic array and lost their ability to resist.
Time for the next step.
The holy artifact-the holy beam space.
To completely suppress and seal him!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Swoosh!!!
Fang Heng locked his spiritual power onto Sheng Tao, who was falling from the sky!
The twelve black long rods in his hands were thrown forward in unison!
The long rods absorbed the golden strength in the air and were quickly enveloped by a layer of golden holy attribute light. They then quickly darted towards Sheng Tao, who was falling from the sky.
Sheng Tao had completely lost the ability to resist the suppression of the magic array. He could only watch as his body was surrounded by the golden light.
Crack! Crack!!!
The long rods quickly stacked and assembled in the air, forming a dark golden cube around Sheng Tao.
"Buzz…"
Golden Holy Light films appeared on the six surfaces of the cube.
"Bang!!"
The cube fell from the sky and landed on the ground with a loud crash.
Did he succeed?
Buzz…
The light on the magic array gradually dissipated. Everything seemed to have returned to normal.
Fang Heng observed the golden cube that was more than half buried by shrapnel on the ground more than ten meters below.
It was too far away to see clearly.
Fang Heng controlled his body to crawl out of the hole in the wall and jumped down.
"Pa."
When he landed, Fang Heng stood not far from the golden cube and stared at Sheng Tao.
The game prompt quickly appeared on his retina.
[Hint: The player has successfully used holy beam space. Currently, you can suppress and confine the target life form: 72 hours.]
[Hint: The suppression of the confinement time may be affected by other factors.]
It seemed like he had succeeded.
Sheng Tao, who had been imprisoned, had already fallen unconscious. The phantom of the demon that had been attached to his shoulder had also disappeared. Only a faint red aura that was seeping out of his body could be seen.
Fang Heng tried to point forward.
"Tsk!"
Under Fang Heng's control, the golden holy beam space slowly shrank and floated in midair, forming an irregular polyhedron.
Fang Heng rubbed his chin and observed.
It was too easy for him.
Even after spending so much effort, it was only a temporary seal. There was no way to kill him directly at the moment.
"Hey! Fang Heng! Can you hear me? Are you alright?"
Fang Heng heard the shouts and looked up into the sky.
Yu Jiayuan and a few believers had been hiding in the passage dug out by the zombie clones. When they heard that the battle had stopped, they rushed over to investigate. At this time, they were lying on the edge of the broken hall to check on Fang Heng's situation.
"Mm, done!"
Fang Heng made an okay gesture to the people above him.
Yu Jiayuan opened her mouth.
Really…
Did he succeed?
At first, when Fang Heng said that he wanted to deal with Sheng Tao, Yu Jiayuan thought that he was crazy!
That was the Revolution Society!
And it was the famous Sheng Tao!
But now…
The truth was right in front of her. Fang Heng had actually succeeded!
"We'll pull you up!"
Yu Jiayuan quickly came back to her senses and asked her believers to lower a rope from above and pull Fang Heng up.
After bringing Fang Heng up to the ground, Yu Jiayuan looked him up and down several times. After confirming that he was not injured, she carefully stuck her head out and looked down.
It was hard to imagine that the Fang Heng in front of her was actually a ruthless person who could seal demons!
Yu Jiayuan's lips were trembling. She turned to Fang Heng again to confirm, "Really? Is he dead?"

1542 The End
"Hmm, it's only temporary suppression. In theory, we can control him for a long time, enough for us to leave this place."
Fang Heng felt lucky.
This was a gamble.
Moreover, thinking about it carefully, it was a loss.
Previously, in order to be safe, he had released all the power of faith that Gan Honghua had collected over the years, leaving only three bottles to save his life.
He had to use the Book of Oaths sparingly.
He hoped that he could hold on until the zombie clones dug out a passage.
Fang Heng's spirit was perked and he pondered over his next move.
"Let's go. Sheng Tao is still down there. Seal off this place and don't let anyone get close."
Yu Jiayuan nodded solemnly, "Okay."
Everyone returned to the underground resting area.
The zombie clones were still busy digging up the soil to block the other side of the passage.
In just an hour, the zombie clones had already dug a large section forward. A few more waves of clones were successfully resurrected and joined the excavation team to increase their efficiency.
Everything was fine in the underground area.
It was only a matter of time.
For safety's sake, Fang Heng brought Yu Jiayuan through the passage into the broken church to check it out.
The two Bosses of the undead Bones were still in the shattered hall.
Yu Jiayuan had been following behind Fang Heng all this while. When she saw the two behemoths and the aura fluctuations that they emitted, she couldn't help but nod in her heart.
Summoned creatures!
Just from the power fluctuations and aura, it could be seen that these two large-scale summoned creatures were extremely powerful!
No wonder Fang Heng had the ability to tangle with Sheng Tao for so long.
Fang Heng looked around.
There were no signs of the Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures appearing.
First, he would reverse summon the Bosses of the undead Bones back.
Previously, he had not been willing to let the Bosses of the undead Bones self-destruct.
After they were summoned back to the source of the shady line, their HP could still slowly recover. They could be used repeatedly in the future.
Fang Heng stood where he was and formed a seal with his hands.
"Buzz…"
A magic array appeared in the air.
Under Fang Heng's control, the two Bosses of the undead Bones slowly stepped into the magic array in front of them and disappeared.
"Are we safe now?"
Yu Jiayuan looked around and found that everything seemed to have returned to normal. The Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures outside had also stopped entering the church.
"Yes, we'll just have to wait. For safety's sake, we'll continue to dig a passage and leave from here." Fang Heng nodded and said, "You go back first. Go down and watch over the believers. Leave this to me."
"Alright."
The closer they got to the ground, the faster the contamination spread in Yu Jiayuan's body. Hearing this, she quickly agreed and returned to the underground.
After Yu Jiayuan left in a hurry, Fang Heng thought about it and decided to go and take a look at the situation outside the broken church.
When Sheng Tao came earlier, the Fallen Ones and the Corrupted had stopped attacking.
Now that Sheng Tao was sealed, they might make a comeback.
Eh? Oh right.
And that thing!
Fang Heng had just taken a step when he saw the shadow deep in the broken church from the corner of his eye.
Red Hell Mandala flower!
He hadn't had the time to make careful arrangements.
Fang Heng walked to the side of the red Hell Mandala flower and could not help but rub his chin.
The previous battle with Sheng Tao did not affect the Hell Mandala flower.
It still looked half-dead.
How could he take it away from here?
It wasn't easy.
Unfortunately, his ability to log off was sealed. Otherwise, he could still log off and contact Starfish Company to ask about the situation.
Apart from that, Fang Heng had also tried it earlier. The seal that shrouded the slums was extremely strong, and even the spatial teleportation hub was sealed and could not be used.
Fang Heng was pondering and suddenly raised his head.
A familiar voice came from outside.
Trouble.
The corrupted creatures outside were coming again!
Fang Heng stretched out his hand and took out the Book of Oaths.
There were three Bottles of Faith left.
The stored power of faith could still be used for a period of time.
…
At this moment, outside the broken church, Baldy Sun Zhaoyu and Luo Xu were casually mingling with a group of Fallen Ones and the Corrupted.
The two of them had already gathered half an hour ago, and they had gathered outside the church with a large number of Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures.
Since both of them had the aura of the Fallen Ones, and the other Fallen Ones had just fallen and awakened, they were summoned here. They did not know each other, so no one could tell their special identities.
But Sun Zhaoyu and Luo Xu didn't dare to barge into the church directly.
It made them feel even more strange. An extremely strong fluctuation had appeared in the broken church.
The fluctuations were mixed with the aura of the undead.
Ten minutes ago, the fluctuations completely disappeared.
The Fallen Ones and the corrupted life forms were uneasy, and a few Fallen Ones entered the broken church to investigate.
However, no one came out of the church.
"We're doomed! The fluctuation had disappeared for so long. Something must have happened."
Luo Xu shrugged and whispered, "Forget it. It's within my expectations. Under the octagonal seal, the abilities of the corrupted creatures and Fallen lifeforms have been greatly enhanced. In addition, Sheng Tao has personally come out. It's within my expectations that the demonic seed will be destroyed."
"D*mn it!"
Sun Zhaoyu wanted to curse.
They had painstakingly found the traces of the demonic seed and had even spent so much effort to find the demonic seed first. Who knew that the demonic seed would suddenly erupt and they would return empty-handed?
In the end, they didn't get anything. All they got was a glimpse of the body of the demonic seed, and they even lost District Ado Tutelan which they had been operating for many years.
"Calm down."
Sun Zhaoyu took a deep breath and calmed down. He asked, "Then what should we do now?"
"Sheng Tao has the support of the demon's power. He's powerful and not someone we can deal with."
Luo Xu shook his head and lowered his voice as he spoke, "This time, the time and place where the demonic seed appeared are very strange. We acted in a hurry, so it's normal for us to fail. At least we've tried our best. Let's change to another place to hide."
Sun Zhaoyu was extremely unhappy and cursed softly, "F*ck!"
Since they had already failed, they needed to move as soon as possible. Luo Xu turned around and prepared to leave. He said, "Let's go. Don't fight with the believers of the demonic seed. We have no chance of winning. Now that the people from the Occult Research Society are looking for us, it's time to think about how to escape."
"What bad luck! If we could have found him earlier, would we have gone through so much trouble?"
Sun Zhaoyu couldn't help but spit on the ground. Suddenly, he saw something out of the corner of his eye. He was stunned on the spot, and his eyes flashed with deep surprise.
What was that?
Sun Zhaoyu turned to look at the entrance of the broken church and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
"Still not leaving? We're surrounded by the Occult Investigation Committee outside. There's still a fierce battle waiting for us."
"No, no. Wait a minute."
Sun Zhaoyu confirmed that he wasn't seeing things, but he felt that something was wrong. He pointed at the church not far away and confirmed with Luo Xu, "That person… Let me see if he is Fang Heng."

1543 The Root of Evil
"Hmm? What did you say?"
Luo Xu had already turned around and was about to leave. When he heard Sun Zhaoyu's words, he was stunned and subconsciously looked back.
It was actually Fang Heng?
Luo Xu was also staring in the direction of the church without moving.
He saw a figure poking his head out of the broken church.
That face…
Wasn't it the Fang Heng they had been looking for??
The Fallen Ones who had been crowding around the periphery also noticed Fang Heng and stared at the figure.
After the initial shock, one of them suddenly shouted, "He's Fang Heng!! He's not dead yet!"
"Kill him!"
Some of the Fallen Ones recognized Fang Heng, and those in the periphery of the broken church immediately became agitated.
A small group of corrupted life forms and Fallen Ones immediately rushed into the church!
Fang Heng was also shocked.
He had never expected that there would be a large group of Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures gathered outside the broken church. He quickly hid himself.
In the beginning, Fang Heng hid in the church and used the Book of Oaths to eliminate a small number of Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures that entered from outside the church.
It was to buy time for zombie clones to dig a passage.
As he swiped, Fang Heng realized that something was wrong.
The remains of the Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures slowly squirmed and were absorbed by the Hell Mandala flower behind them.
After Gan Honghua's death, there were signs of decay and gradual recovery. It was very troublesome to deal with.
That was why Fang Heng was wondering if he could stop the enemy outside the broken church to prevent the corpses from being absorbed.
Who knew that this would cause trouble?
The Fallen Ones outside the church were even more shocked when they saw Fang Heng.
The perception they had received from Sheng Tao earlier had told everyone not to approach the broken church for the time being.
Who knew that in the past hour, there was still no movement? Ten minutes ago, they even lost the perception of Sheng Tao. Therefore, the Fallen Ones could not help but enter the church to check.
But…
Sheng Tao was nowhere to be seen, but Fang Heng?
"Let's go!!"
On the contrary, Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu were extremely pleasantly surprised when they saw this scene.
Fang Heng actually didn't die?
There was such a good thing?
The two of them immediately mixed into the group of Fallen Ones and rushed into the broken church!
"Swoosh! Whoosh Whoosh!!!"
As soon as the two of them entered the church hall, the golden Holy Light exploded in front of them.
The Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures that rushed into the broken church with them were purified by the golden Holy Light!
Luo Xu's heart skipped a beat.
Extremely powerful holy power.
However, it was impossible to deal with Sheng Tao with this alone.
"Be careful!"
A stream of light flew toward Luo Xu from the right.
Sun Zhaoyu shouted and reached out to pull Luo Xu to the side to avoid the flowing light's attack.
"Swoosh! Swoosh swoosh!!"
After the golden streak of light's attack missed, it quickly spun in a circle in the air and continued to dart toward the two from the right!
Not only that, but two more golden streams of light flew toward them from afar.
Oh no, he had been locked onto!
Sun Zhaoyu's heart sank. He had rich battle experience and immediately raised his hands to block in front of him.
Luo Xu immediately knelt down on one knee and made a gesture of not resisting at all. He shouted, "It's us! Lord of the demonic seed! Please stop!"
"Boom!!!"
Four golden streams of light bombarded Sun Zhaoyu's body, sending him flying backward and crashing into the wall behind him.
Luo Xu glanced at Sun Zhaoyu, who was blasted away by the Holy Light and then looked at Fang Heng, who was standing not far away and controlling the Book of Oaths. His eyes could not help but reveal a look of surprise.
Lord of the demonic seed.
Its body actually possessed such powerful strength.
Moreover, it was the power of the holy attribute!
It was simply unheard of!
But even so…
Fang Heng was still no match for Sheng Tao.
So what about Sheng Tao?
Luo Xu carefully observed his surroundings.
The Fallen Ones and the Corrupted who had broken into the church with them were all killed by Fang Heng's Book of Oaths.
He did not sense any energy fluctuations from Sheng Tao.
Could it be that someone had intervened to help?
Fang Heng had also been observing Sun Zhaoyu and Luo Xu from afar, and he raised his vigilance and secretly prepared for battle.
The Book of Oaths' attack was almost fully automatic. Fang Heng immediately retracted it when he sensed that something was wrong.
Unfortunately, he was still a step too late.
Sun Zhaoyu struggled to get up from the ground. The injuries on his body were quickly recovering.
He walked over and knelt down on one knee with Luo Xu.
"Greetings, Lord of the demonic seed."
Fang Heng looked at the two of them and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.
He saw the game prompt quickly appear on his retina.
[Hint: The player has completed the current mission-Meet up.]
"Who are you? Fallen Ones? Why are you looking for me?"
Luo Xu knelt on one knee and said, "Lord of the demonic seed, the two of us are servants of the abyss and are subordinate to another Lord of the demonic seed. We have been looking for you to beg for your help, but also to temporarily protect your safety."
Fang Heng raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Demonic seed, what exactly is it?"
"In fact, we don't know the reason why the demonic seed is produced. We only know that the demonic seed is the incarnation of evil from the abyss of hell, the source of evil produced after the Lord of Hell was destroyed."
"The demons left a magic array in the human world to summon the demonic seed. The demonic seed can be summoned into the human body through a ritual."
"As far as we know, there are seven types of demonic seeds. They are Pride, Jealousy, Wrath, Sloth, Greed, Gluttony, and Lust. They will return to the abyss of hell with the death of the ritual host. They will be reborn in the human world through the rituals of the believers of hell, spreading chaos in the human world."
"The demonic seed has great power and will lead the believers of hell to spread chaos in the world."
Fang Heng listened carefully to Luo Xu's words and frowned.
He had read about them when he was looking through the information of the Holy Court. The Holy Court believed that these seven powers were the seven sources of hell's bewitchment of humans.
Luo Xu looked at Fang Heng respectfully and said, "Sir, you should be able to feel that the demonic seed in your body should have completed its initial awakening."
"So the demonic seed in my body is…"
"I'm sorry, we don't know." Luo Xu raised his head and looked at Fang Heng and said, "After the ritual is completed, the demonic seed will gradually hide and fuse with the host's life. It will subtly influence part of your behavior and personality, so you might know better than us which type of demonic seed is in your body."
His personality would be affected?
Fang Heng opened his mouth and muttered the so-called seven sins again, wondering what kind of demonic seed was in his body.
He didn't feel anything at all!
"I don't seem to feel it."
Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu looked at each other.
They had only heard of a demon swearing that it had sensed the existence of the demonic seed.
A new unknown demonic seed was born.
As for what exactly the demonic seed in Fang Heng's body was, they did not know.

1544 The Reason
It was normal for Fang Heng to say that he did not feel anything.
After being implanted with a demonic seed through the ritual, most hosts would not notice that their personalities were affected.
To be precise, the human host body that was suitable for the demonic seed to live in was compatible with a certain sin, and the demonic seed magnified the sin in the original body.
However, since it was their first meeting, Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu didn't know Fang Heng's temperament yet, so they didn't dare to say anything.
If Fang Heng was enraged and if they speak nonsense, they might be in trouble.
Sun Zhaoyu suggested carefully, "You can try asking your friends about their opinions about you. You should be able to find some clues."
"Hmm."
Fang Heng nodded and tried to clear his mind. He said, "So I went through some kind of ritual and now there's something like a demonic seed in my body, right?"
"Yes."
"So, as days go by, the demonic seed gradually grows stronger and then one fine day, I will also be devoured?"
"Hmm?" Luo Xu revealed a puzzled expression and could not help but ask, "Sir, why do you have such thoughts?"
"What do you mean?"
"After the ritual is completed, you will have fused with the demonic seed. You are the demonic seed, and the demonic seed is you. There is no such thing as being devoured. This strength is under your control, but when you use it, it will also subtly influence some of your actions."
Luo Xu nodded very seriously and said, "Even if you're affected, the final decision is still under your control. Everything is decided by your will. To be precise, it's because you received the recognition that you passed the ritual of the demonic seed and accepted it."
Hearing this, Fang Heng heaved a sigh of relief.
It seemed that the demonic seed did not have any negative effects.
For a moment, Fang Heng's mind was in turmoil.
"I understand. You guys get up first."
"Thank you, Sir."
Luo Xu stood up and said, "Lord of the demonic seed, there are still many things that we need to report to you one by one. Now is not the time. Please leave this place with us."
"Call me Fang Heng from now on. Also, are you referring to the Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures outside? What about the specifics? Who wants to deal with me? Was Sheng Tao also sent by that person?"
Luo Xu sighed in his heart and said in a deep voice, "The one who wants to deal with you is also a Lord of the demonic seed. To be precise, it's your sister, Essekelina, the Lord of the demonic seed who has mastered the strength of the Tongues of Jealousy."
Fang Heng fell into a short silence. After a while, he asked, "So why did she want to deal with me?"
"Demons that live in the abyss are creatures of Chaos. They might not need any reason to deal with you." A bitter smile appeared on Luo Xu's face as he spoke, "If you want to know the reason, it's probably… because of jealousy."
Fang Heng was speechless.
[Hint: The player has triggered a special main storyline mission-Seed of Jealousy.]
Mission title: Seed of Jealousy.
Mission description: You have found the servants of the abyss and learned from them about the rumors about the seven demonic seeds. You have realized that you have been contaminated by the strength of the demonic seed 'Jealousy.' Please survive under the corruption of jealousy.
Mission requirement: Clear the contamination of the Tongues of Jealousy in your body.
Mission reward: Hint for the next phase of the mission.
Fang Heng fell silent again.
Looking at the mission description, coupled with the conversation with Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu, Fang Heng suddenly found that many of the questions that had troubled him in the past had answers.
He was a demonic seed.
Then who was the one who planted the demonic seed in him?
The answer was already obvious
Xia Xi!
So she was also from hell?
Fang Heng felt a little confused and continued to ask, "How did you find me? Do you rely on the positioning?"
Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu looked at each other and thought to themselves, "You've already caused such a huge commotion in the slums. It'll be strange if we can't find you!"
Fang Heng saw the strange expressions on Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu's faces and said in a deep voice, "Tell me, what's the situation?"
"It's like this. According to our current understanding of you and the information we collected from various sources, we have roughly made a guess."
"Okay, you guys go ahead."
"We know that you came from the Otherworld, but we don't know how you obtained the demonic seed. We know that you found a fusion tree in Edoma Cervantes' villa that night. Is that true?"
"Not bad."
"There was originally a demon sealed under the fusion tree by Edoma."
"You unintentionally weakened the strength of the seal and came into contact with the demon. This triggered the power of the demonic seed in your body, causing it to be further awakened."
Fang Heng recalled the situation during his cultivation that night and frowned, "Wait, what did you say? Awakened?"
"Yes, awakened. The awakening in your sea of consciousness. The demonic seed was once in the seed state. Once the awakening is completed, the demonic seed in your body will successfully germinate. Only then you will be able to sense the existence of the demonic seed. If you have practiced occultism, you should be able to find traces of it in your sea of consciousness."
Fang Heng unconsciously clenched his fists.
Awakening was the corruption that he had felt back then!
He had already vaguely sensed it.
It was very likely that he had been tricked by Viona!
When the two of them saw Fang Heng's expression suddenly turn extremely gloomy, they could not help but shut their mouths.
"Yes, both of you, please continue."
Sun Zhaoyu continued, "But the demon didn't find any trace of you after breaking through the seal. Later, the people from the Occult Committee also discovered the explosion and came to the villa to provide support. The demon had just escaped the seal and was extremely weak, so it could only choose to hide for the time being."
Fang Heng understood. At that time, because he sensed the explosion, he chose to go offline and hide, so the demon couldn't find him.
"And then?"
"After that, the demon told us that he had found you. When we learned that you had been taken away by the Occultism Investigation Committee, we immediately created chaos in the city. We wanted to protect you before the Revolution Society found you. In order to hide our true purpose, we tried our best to make a scene."
"It's just that we didn't expect that you weren't imprisoned by the Occult Committee. We came up empty-handed again."
"After that, we have been secretly following the Federation in search of you. Not long ago, we discovered explosive fluctuations at the periphery of the slums. The fluctuations in strength were extremely powerful, and even the demonic seed of the Tongues of Jealousy, Essekelina, sensed it in the Otherworld. She intervened from the outside world and placed an octagonal seal over the slums."
"Yes, the eyes in the clouds above the slum are the eyes of your sister."
Luo Xu was also very confused about this.
"We believe that the strength of the demonic seed in your sea of consciousness has been affected by a huge external force. The power of the demonic seed in your body has been suppressed to the limit, so the power of the demonic seed has backfired. This will stimulate the potential power of the demonic seed in your body to a certain extent, but it will also cause a huge power fluctuation."

1545 Scammed
Fang Heng's expression was so dark that it was terrifying.
Viona!
D*mn it!
Fang Heng gritted his teeth.
He was sure that he had been tricked by Viona!
It was Viona who heard that the strength of the demonic seed in his body was about to awaken, so she deliberately asked him to come to Gan Honghua to undergo a ritual to remove the pollution in his body.
In fact, after the initial contamination ended, the awakening of the seed in his body began.
After that, he went to Gan Honghua for the acceptance ritual.
During the ritual, the strength that had been suppressed erupted and attracted the attention of the Seed of Jealousy, Essekelina!
Essekelina immediately activated her skill, wanting to kill him completely!
All the dots were connected!
Fang Heng had been chased all over the world for half a day, and now he finally understood what had happened to him.
That woman!
Fang Heng unconsciously clenched his fists, his eyes not concealing his killing intent towards Viona at all.
She was the one who pushed him into this life-and-death situation. Moreover, he was still in extreme danger.
Only a small portion of the gray pollution in his sea of consciousness belonged to the strength of his own demonic seed. The outer layer of the pollution with large red threads belonged to Essekelina!
Those large patches of red threads were actually the Tongues of Jealousy, the strength that originated from the Seed of Jealousy!
"Fang Heng, we need to speed up. The longer you stay in the octagonal seal, the more polluted your body will be. By then, you will also be under Essekelina's control."
Fang Heng understood.
If he didn't find a way to get rid of them completely, he would become Essekelina's puppet when the pollution completely occupied his sea of consciousness!
Fang Heng took a deep breath to calm himself down and looked at the game Hint again.
According to the current situation, he still had 236 days to be completely contaminated.
Calm down.
There was still time.
Fang Heng raised his head and said, "There's no rush."
"But Sir, Sheng Tao has already caught up. Soon…"
"It's fine. Sheng Tao won't cause us any trouble for the time being."
Hmm?
Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu both revealed puzzled expressions as they looked at Fang Heng.
"He has been temporarily suppressed by me."
"What?!"
The two of them looked extremely surprised as if they had heard something extraordinary. Both of them looked at Fang Heng in a daze.
A demonic seed that had just awakened for the first time was strong enough to deal with Sheng Tao alone?!
"It wasn't my own strength. I borrowed the power of the Holy Court, and he was only temporarily suppressed."
Fang Heng explained casually.
For now, he trusted everything Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu said.
After all, the game had provided the corresponding mission hint evidence.
Sun Zhaoyu looked at Luo Xu and swallowed his saliva carefully. He said, "Sir, no matter what, we should leave the octagonal seal as soon as possible. Staying here will accelerate the corrosion, so it's better to leave first."
"Even if Sheng Tao is no longer a threat, there are still people from the Occult Union outside. They have already set up the perimeter two hours ago. More and more reinforcements will come from outside. When that time comes, it will be difficult for us to break through their blockade."
"There's no rush." Fang Heng waved his hand and said, "I've already thought of a way to get out of here."
Sun Zhaoyu blinked again and couldn't help but look at Luo Xu beside him.
From what Fang Heng said, he had already settled everything.
Was this for real?
Not only did he get rid of Sheng Tao, he even thought of a way out.
So, after all this time, they were here for nothing?
Luo Xu's eyes shone brightly.
In just a few minutes of communication, Luo Xu realized that Fang Heng was completely different from the other demonic seed he had encountered in the past!
He was extremely powerful and was unusually calm in the face of danger.
"Let's keep the matter regarding the demonic seed a secret. What's the situation outside now?"
"Previously, the Fallen Ones accepted Sheng Tao's call and did not enter the church. They gathered around the outside of the church to guard it. Now that they have not sensed Sheng Tao for a period of time, some of the Fallen Ones are a little anxious. When they saw you appear just now, they might break in to investigate soon…"
"Can you delay them?"
The two of them looked at each other and then shook their heads.
"I'm afraid not. They have a lot of people."
"How about fooling them? Think of a way to trick them into guarding outside the church?"
Sun Zhaoyu was stunned and asked, "Fool them? And then?"
"There's a passage under the church. We'll dig a passage to leave this place, but we still need to buy some time."
Luo Xu thought about it and nodded.
"Well, go ahead and try. It doesn't matter if you fail. Before that, there's one more thing. Do you know what that thing is?"
Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu looked in the direction Fang Heng was pointing, towards the depths of the broken church.
There was a red flower hanging from the corpse.
"That's the Hell's Mandala. It will appear on the corpses of corrupted creatures."
Luo Xu had seen the Hell Mandala a few times before, but his knowledge of them was limited.
"The growth of the Hell Mandala is very rare, and it's even more unheard of to be able to bloom successfully. At least, I've never seen it before. I've heard people mention before that blooming Hell Mandala can be used as a special material."
"Can you take the flower down? Or think of a way to move them?"
"I'm afraid not. Before it blooms, once it leaves the rotting thing or the rotting thing dies completely, the flower will decay rapidly. Moreover, the rotting thing that remains also carries an extremely strong infection. It's almost impossible to move it as a whole."
"Then forget it."
Fang Heng was a little disappointed. He waved his hand and prepared to find another way. He said, "You guys think of a way to help me keep an eye on this place first and fool them. Don't let them get close to the church."
"Understood! Let's go and try."
Fang Heng saw Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu turn around and go out of the church in quick steps. He suddenly thought of something and called out to the two of them.
"Wait a minute. With your current abilities, it's not a problem for you to leave the slums alone to send a message, right?"
"Of course not." Sun Zhaoyu clenched his fists and replied, "The slums are already surrounded by the Occultism Investigation Committee and the government. It's difficult to leave without being discovered, but they can't stop us. We just have to fight."
"What about summoning? You can contact the outside world through summoning strength?"
"Yes, but we need to leave the octagonal seal."
…
Two hours later, after a few rounds of probing at the periphery, the team from the Occult Joint Committee was ready to enter the slums to carry out a search.
"Sir, all unrelated personnel within 50 kilometers of the slums have been evacuated! The cordoned-off area had already been established, and a detailed investigation was being carried out."
"Attention all teams. The probability of survival under high pollution is less than 0.1%. There are a large number of polluted people gathering in the slums. Please be careful!"
"Team 1 and Team 5, prepare to enter the slums from the west."
"This mission is mainly to investigate…"

1546 Receiving
Ruan Ziying stood alone beside a car in the periphery of the slums, looking far away.
"How's the situation inside?"
Ruan Ziying asked when she saw Shan Fucai walking back.
At this moment, Shan Fucai's authority had been taken over by the officer who had just arrived a few hours ago.
"I'm not sure. The signal inside the octagonal seal is blocked, so we can't determine the situation inside the slums. There are also Fallen Ones gathering on the outside. We even discovered Luo Xu and his group earlier and fought with them. They broke into the slums."
"Currently, it's already filled with a large number of corrupted creatures and the Fallen Ones. Coupled with the extremely high concentration of pollution, it's very difficult for our people to enter."
"No news from Sheng Tao?"
Shan Fucai shook his head with a solemn expression.
Ruan Ziying turned on her phone.
She was now outside the slums and still suffered from signal interference. The internet was intermittent.
After the outside world received the news, there were also groups of players who approached the slums to dig out the mission line, but most of them were stopped by the people of the Occult Investigation Committee.
As the octagonal seal in the sky continued, the people outside the seal also began to be contaminated. Therefore, the Occult Investigation Committee immediately organized the evacuation of the periphery personnel and divided them into restricted areas.
In fact, Ruan Ziying had also received a reminder about the mission to explore the slums.
But she cherished her life more.
It was too dangerous to barge in alone.
The client was very important, and the mission was also very attractive.
But survival was more important!
Ruan Ziying was a little anxious. She refreshed the webpage and looked for relevant information.
Eh?
Suddenly, Ruan Ziying's heart skipped a beat.
She received a text message on her phone.
It came from an unknown number. There was a string of numbers in front of the message.
Ruan Ziying was very familiar with this string of numbers. It was the phone number she had given Fang Heng when she first brought him to this world!
There was a message behind the phone number, asking her to quietly go to a coordinate point alone to avoid the eyes and ears of the Occult Investigation Team.
Judging from the map, the coordinates were located at the periphery of the slums, not far from her location!
How was this possible?
Could it be Fang Heng?
He did not die! He even sent her a contact message!?
Ruan Ziying's heart started to beat faster.
Shan Fucai noticed the change in Ruan Ziying's expression and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you?"
"No, nothing."
Ruan Ziying thought for a moment and decided to go and take a look.
The target's coordinates were nearby. If it was a trap, people would come to investigate if there was any movement.
With her ability, she could protect herself for a short period of time.
"Maybe I'm a little tired. I want to go outside and rest."
Shan Fucai stared at Ruan Ziying and said in a deep voice, "You've been contaminated?"
"No, I'm just tired."
"Mm, okay, go. Be careful."
Shan Fucai watched Ruan Ziying leave and then turned his gaze to the slums.
He felt very strange.
Sheng Tao had been in there for too long.
Did something unexpected happen? Even he…
His superiors had the same thoughts as him, so they were not in a hurry to enter the octagonal seal area to observe. Instead, they took the first step to control the situation in the outside world.
Ruan Ziying carefully avoided the place where the Occult Investigation Committee gathered. She remained vigilant and followed the coordinates she received on her phone.
Along the way, there were still many police officers patrolling around, chasing away unrelated people.
Ruan Ziying had a temporary consultant badge provided by the Occult Committee, so she was considered a member of the investigation committee.
Ruan Ziying stopped when she reached the edge of a sparse forest.
There was no one around.
That's right, the agreed coordinates were here.
No one?
"Ka…!"
Ruan Ziying was startled by a slight sound. She turned her head to look at her feet. At the same time, the Book of Nature appeared in her hand, and she assumed a fighting pose.
"Crack!"
With another sound, a wooden plank on the ground was lifted!
Ruan Ziying was surprised to find that there was a wooden passage under the thick leaves!
The wooden board was slowly pushed away by a hand.
Then, a person poked his head out from under the wooden board.
Seeing that person, Ruan Ziying's face suddenly showed an extremely surprised expression.
And joy!
"Fang…"
"Hush!"
It was actually Fang Heng!
Ruan Ziying quickly covered her mouth.
When she saw the message, she had been wondering if Fang Heng was looking for her. When she saw this scene, she was shocked.
Fang Heng looked completely unharmed and did not look like he was being hunted at all.
Ruan Ziying was speechless for a moment and then stuttered, "You, you…"
Fang Heng looked around and quickly nodded. He whispered, "I know you have a lot of questions. Follow me first! Come down."
"Ah."
Ruan Ziying watched helplessly as Fang Heng burrowed into the ground.
It was a secret underground passageway built in the slums!
Ruan Ziying recognized it immediately.
A long time ago, the slums used to be a war-torn area, and there were many secret passages below.
Could it be that Fang Heng's luck was so good that he actually found the passage??
However, she remembered that the government had already blocked all the passages in the past…
"Hurry up."
Ruan Ziying was still a little confused. After being urged by Fang Heng, she didn't think too much and jumped into the passage with him.
Fang Heng quickly closed the entrance of the passage above and led Ruan Ziying inside.
"How is the situation outside? No one followed me, right?"
"Yes."
Ruan Ziying followed Fang Heng forward. At first, she nodded blankly, but then she quickly recovered from her surprise and bombarded Fang Heng with questions like a machine gun.
"What's wrong with you? What happened here?"
"Were you the one who caused the disappearance of Albra's Pupil last night? Is that ritual related to you?"
"Why are the people of the Revolution Society looking for you? And Sheng Tao? Do you know that Sheng Tao is looking for you right now? He's from the Revolution Society. When did you offend the Revolution Society?"
"Sheng Tao is ruthless. Your current situation is extremely dangerous!"
"How's the pollution in your body now? No, this place is too dangerous. You can't stay here any longer. You have to leave this place quickly!"
Fang Heng looked back at Ruan Ziying.
There were so many questions that he didn't know which one to answer.
In short, the zombie clones were lucky. They had just dug a tunnel underground and connected it to the underground tunnel that was left behind.
Then, Fang Heng asked Luo Xu to help him summon a few abyss servants to send a text message to Ruan Ziying, reminding her to meet him at one of the exits.
"Ahem, don't be anxious. In short, something happened. I'll answer your questions one by one, but I need your help now. After all, I'm your client, right?"
"Of course. Starfish Company has always prioritized its customers…"
Ruan Ziying opened her mouth to speak, but when she saw Fang Heng's relaxed appearance, she also began to be feel dazed.

"Wait! You already have the ability to leave the slums, right? Are you trying to get into the octagonal seal? You lunatic, I'll be contaminated!"
Ruan Ziying quickly gave herself a few layers of nature blessing.
"Don't be nervous. I know you have something to deal with pollution. Moreover, we're underground now, so we're a little resistant to the pollution outside."
"You lunatic, you have to pay more."
Ruan Ziying felt that Fang Heng was a lunatic.
"Do you know that Sheng Tao, the representative of the Revolution Society, is looking for you now? His strength is terrifying and far from what we can deal with now. Before he finds you, we can think of a way to bring you out of here. This world is too dangerous. You've already become the enemy of the entire world. It's best if you don't stay here any longer. I'll think of a way to bring you to a safe place. When tomorrow's time comes, I'll take you away. Hey, why don't you listen to me…"
Fang Heng saw Ruan Ziying's agitated look and couldn't help but interrupt, "I know Sheng Tao, and I've fought him before."
Ruan Ziying stared blankly at Fang Heng, and the words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat.
"You… What did you say? You already met Sheng Tao?"
Ruan Ziying really wanted to ask why after he met Sheng Tao, he was still standing here, safe and sound.
"Yes, we had a fight. I was lucky. The Holy Court built a magic array here to deal with demons. I used the magic array to temporarily seal and suppress him."
Ruan Ziying was completely stunned. She stared at Fang Heng with a look of disbelief.
When Fang Heng saw Ruan Ziying stop in her tracks, he also stopped and turned to look at Ruan Ziying, and asked "What's wrong?"
"W-what did you say? You, you, you…"
Ruan Ziying completely ignored the part about the Holy Court's magic array that Fang Heng had mentioned. Her mind was only filled with the main points that Fang Heng had mentioned.
Sheng Tao?!
He had sealed and suppressed a member of the Revolution Society!
Were all the people who came from the elementary game so terrifying?
"Yes, a type of suppression seal that relies on external forces."
Ruan Ziying didn't care what external force Fang Heng had used.
Sheng Tao?!
He was the most influential person in the Revolution Society! A vicious character that everyone feared had fallen at the hands of a newbie who had just entered an advanced game world for the first time…
And the kind that was smuggled in.
Who would believe it?!
"Let's go. The church area isn't dangerous now, provided that you can resist the pollution."
Ruan Ziying came back to her senses and looked at Fang Heng who was gradually walking deeper into the passage.
Wait a minute.
She was actually crushed by a player from an elementary game.
"Tsk, don't look down on me. I've been here much longer than you, so it's not difficult for me to resist this little bit of pollution. However, I've agreed that it's very risky to accompany you into the polluted area, so I'll have to pay more."
Since Sheng Tao wasn't around, Ruan Ziying still had the ability to protect herself, so she hurriedly followed.
"Hmm, let's go"
Halfway through, Ruan Ziying gave Fang Heng a general introduction to the situation in the slums.
"I see. It's the octagonal seal."
Fang Heng had read about it in some books and knew that the octagonal seal was an extremely powerful ancient seal. It could be used in conjunction with many academic uses and had different effects.
"Since there are no government departments yet to completely seal off the outside world, I can think of a way to secretly bring you out. If we delay for too long, accidents may happen."
Ruan Ziying kept persuading Fang Heng to run away.
She found it strange.
Since he could run, why didn't he hurry up and leave? Why was he still here?
"There's no hurry. I've encountered something strange and I want you to come over and take a look."
"Take a look?"
"Yes, let's see if we can take it away."
"Oh, what is it?"
"Very soon, you will understand."
Fang Heng was not in a hurry.
Wasn't it just leaving the slums?
In fact, opening a passage was much easier than he had expected.
Earlier, he had already used his zombie clones to open up several passages leading out of the slums.
Leaving was not a problem at all.
He was not afraid of the Occultism Joint Committee's blockade at all. It was nothing more than letting the zombie clones dig an additional passage.
Moreover, as long as he could use his bat form again after leaving the octagonal seal area, he could directly leave through the passageway and then escape in his bat form.
The problem now was how to leave with the gains from this trip.
He had suffered a huge loss this time. He had to recover his HP no matter what.
Ruan Ziying was a little suspicious as she followed Fang Heng through the underground passage into the slums.
He continued to walk until he reached the broken church hall.
Two figures were standing at the entrance of the church.
"Be careful!"
Seeing the two figures in front of her, Ruan Ziying's expression turned cold. She immediately took a defensive stance and opened a natural barrier to protect Fang Heng behind her.
It was the Fallen Ones!
Ruan Ziying stared at the two of them with a solemn expression.
Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu were the two people on the Federal Investigation Committee's wanted list!
They could be considered the leaders of the Fallen Ones faction in District Ado Tutelan!
Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu heard the noise behind them and slowly turned to look at Fang Heng and Ruan Ziying.
"Fang Heng, you're back."
"Yes."
Fang Heng nodded and said to Ruan Ziying, "Don't be nervous. They are one of us."
Ruan Ziying was so scared that her hands trembled.
One of their own? What kind of people were they?
Ruan Ziying looked at Fang Heng with surprise.
Ruan Ziying didn't believe it when Shan Fucai determined that Fang Heng was related to the Fallen Ones faction.
How long had it been since he entered the Watts game world, and now he was part of the local world camp? And he was so familiar with the higher-ups in this faction?
"When did you join the Fallen Ones faction?"
"Yes, probably some time ago."
Ruan Ziying was completely stunned.
Fang Heng nodded at Luo Xu and asked, "How's the situation outside?"
Sun Zhaoyu nodded in response and replied, "Those people are not very smart. According to what you said, we fooled them for the time being, those people gathering outside the church. I think we can hold on for a while."
"Good, well done."
Previously, Fang Heng had used his own methods to intimidate them and used the Book of Oaths to instantly kill all the Fallen Ones outside. In addition to Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu's deception, the Fallen Ones outside had temporarily been frightened off.
Ruan Ziying stood aside and listened to their conversation. Suddenly, her mind was in a mess.
It was as if she had seen a ghost.
"What happened? Are you a Fallen One?"
Fang Heng was not only in contact with the people from the Fallen Ones but he also seemed to be having a good time talking to them.
"I'm not too sure about the specifics. In short, I'm not a Fallen One yet, but I've temporarily joined the Fallen Ones faction." Fang Heng shrugged and continued, "Anyway, I'm your customer. Your motto is to put the customer first."
Ruan Ziying took a deep breath and looked into Fang Heng's eyes.
"Are you sure you're not lying to me? If you are not a Fallen One, how can you join the Fallen Ones faction?"
"Of course. You can ask them if you don't believe me."

1548 Blooming!
Ruan Ziying looked at Luo Yu and Sun Zhaoyu, who were nodding silently. She took a deep breath again and forced herself to accept this setting.
"Alright then."
Very good.
Working closely with the villain.
Ruan Ziying quickly adjusted her state of mind.
"Alright, you know that I've always had a close relationship with the Occult Investigation Committee. I've always been working on the mission line there. Considering the risks and the follow-up mission, if I continue to help you, you'll have to pay more."
"No problem."
Fang Heng led Ruan Ziying deeper into the hall of the broken church and pointed at the shadowy area.
"I brought you here for this."
Ruan Ziying looked in the direction that Fang Heng was pointing at and raised her eyebrows.
Red Hell Mandala!
A special plant that was born from absorbing nutrients from corrupted creatures!
At this moment, a small portion of the Hell Mandala flower had already bloomed.
Ruan Ziying couldn't help but take a few steps forward, staring at the Hell Mandala flower.
"You know this thing?"
"Of course, the Red Hell Mandala absorbed the strength of corruption and decay. It blooms on the corpses of elite corrupted creatures. Under normal circumstances, it's not difficult to form a flower bud. The most difficult thing is to make it bloom."
"Very rare?"
"Of course! Very rare! The matured Hell Mandala is an S-level plant, and it is a very rare material. It is always in short supply."
Hearing that it was S-level, Fang Heng was instantly delighted.
Alright!
In this way, other than the Phoenix Firs, he also obtained a second S-level plant.
Steady!
"How can I get it down? I've tried it before, but brute force doesn't seem to work."
Ruan Ziying observed the Hell Mandala flower's condition and nodded, "Of course. The Hell Mandala flower is connected to the main body. It needs to absorb the nutrients of decaying life forms, so it can only be picked after it has fully bloomed."
"What should I do?"
"Think of a way to make it grow and bloom quickly. Under normal circumstances, this process requires a large amount of decaying matter and contamination as nutrients. Or we can speed it up and use corrupted crystals to greatly increase its growth speed. In theory, as long as we provide it with sufficient corrupted crystals and let it absorb energy, it can complete its growth and bloom in a short period of time."
So that was how it was!
Fang Heng's eyes lit up.
He immediately thought of the two gray corrupted crystals that dropped after the elite corrupted creatures died.
They were all forcefully absorbed by the Hell Mandala.
As expected, professional matters had to be handed over to professionals.
Fang Heng asked Ruan Ziying, "How many corrupted crystals do you have?"
"Why would I have such a thing?" Ruan Ziying was speechless. Fang Heng's tone was like asking how much a pound of cabbage was. She said, "Corrupted crystals usually only appear after killing elite-level corrupted creatures or elite-level Fallen Ones. They are very rare."
This was troublesome.
He still had to think of a way to farm it.
Fang Heng frowned and said, "Alright. Then how many corrupted crystals do we need to make the Hell Mandala bloom completely?"
"Yes, let me see…"
Ruan Ziying carefully observed the growth of the Hell Mandala and nodded. She said, "It's already partially mature. Judging from the situation, it will reach maturity soon. The corrupted lifeform connected to the Hell Mandala has been severely damaged. There's no way to guarantee absorption. It will probably need three to five corrupted lifeforms to complete its growth."
Fang Heng and Luo Xu exchanged glances.
Fortunately.
Only five.
Not much.
They could definitely find them in the slums!
It would be over with a swipe!
"Okay, I know. You stay here first. We'll think of a way to get some corrupted crystals back."
Ruan Ziying blinked her eyes and looked at Fang Heng, who was walking out of the broken church with Luo Xu. She suddenly had a strange feeling in her heart.
So he had the ability to leave this place a long time ago!
He had been staying here all this time just to get an S-level plant?
This lunatic!
On the other side, Fang Heng and Luo Xu arrived at the entrance of the church.
"How about it? We need to get at least five corrupted crystals. Is there a way?"
Luo Xu thought about it and nodded, "It's very difficult. Corrupted crystals are usually only found on some mutated corrupted lifeforms. They often have the flower bud of the Hell Mandala flower on them, and the flower bud can release illusions to attract nearby corrupted creatures to approach, then absorb these corrupted creatures. It's very troublesome to deal with them."
"Let's try it first. It's not convenient for me to leave. You guys go outside and look for the Hell Mandala that has been produced after corruption. After you find it, tell me the coordinates."
"Alright."
The three of them discussed briefly and immediately split up.
…
After more than ten minutes, Fang Heng followed the coordinates given by Luo Xu and climbed out from the underground passage of a low house.
Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu were already waiting in the room.
"Fang Heng, we've checked. It might be because the octagonal seal's extremely high pollution intensity has caused a large number of Fallen Ones to mutate in a short period of time. Many Hell Mandala flowers have appeared in the slums, but most of them are still in the unflowered state. Look, it's over there."
Fang Heng looked out the window.
Not far away, a few clusters of corrupted matter were entangled on the broken rocks.
The Hell Mandala flower on the corpse drooped as if it was malnourished.
Luo Xu reminded him, "Fang Heng, be careful. The Hell Mandala has a powerful hallucinogenic ability. The area of effect of the skill is very wide. It's best to use an ultra-long-range attack to deal with them."
"Yes."
Fang Heng hummed softly and raised his head to look carefully at the sky outside the window.
It was still shrouded in a thick layer of clouds.
With the omniscient eye, Fang Heng could see through the fog, so he was not afraid of the Hell Mandala flower.
The troublesome part was the 'Tongues of Jealousy'.
The pair of eyes in the sky had been patrolling above.
Once he left the house, he would be discovered, and the contamination in his sea of consciousness would increase rapidly.
Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu couldn't help but look at Fang Heng.
Coincidentally, both of them were close combat and lacked long-range attacks. If they were not careful, they would be affected by the illusion. It was not impossible to deal with the Hell Mandala creature, but it would take a lot of time and the risk was high.
Fang Heng asked after some thought, "What about summoned creatures?"
"No, summoned creatures will also be affected by the illusion. In theory, we can summon creatures from behind at any time, but it's still too difficult. Under the influence of the illusion, the summoned creatures will also receive instructions that are different."
Luo Xu analyzed, "How do we explain it? For example, the left and right that summoned creatures see are different from the left and right that we see."
Fang Heng nodded.
Unfortunately, the omniscient eye was obtained through transplantation, so the zombie clones could not directly inherit the effect and see through the illusion.

1549 Gathering
Then he would use force to solve the problem as quickly as possible!
"Alright, you guys stay here."
After Fang Heng finished speaking, he quickly dashed out of the low house!
Luo Xu did not expect Fang Heng to be so impulsive. Before he could say anything, Fang Heng had already rushed out of the window.
He and Sun Zhaoyu quickly took two steps forward and stood by the window to observe.
Once Fang Heng was in danger, they would immediately rescue him.
In the sky, a pair of eyes emerged from the thick clouds and quickly locked onto Fang Heng.
A red notification quickly appeared.
[Hint: The pollution in your body is rising rapidly. Please be careful!].
Fang Heng dashed forward quickly, his hands gathered in front of him.
Book of Oaths!
"Weng…"
The Book of Oaths that was suffused with golden Holy Light appeared in front of him.
The decomposed Hell Mandala flower sensed that its prey was approaching. The rotting matter below quickly squirmed and twisted, forming rotten spikes. At the same time, it released two visible spirit waves!
"Be careful! It's an illusion attack!"
Luo Xu shouted to remind him.
In the next second, Luo Xu's eyes flashed with surprise.
He ignored it!
He saw Fang Heng's body directly pass through the two ripples. Without any pause, he continued to attack the Hell Mandala flower at high speed.
It could actually ignore the Hell Mandala's illusion?
How did he do it?
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Dense streams of light shot out from the Book of Oaths in front of Fang Heng, attacking the putrefaction.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The golden light exploded one after another!
The Book of Oaths boomed for more than 30 seconds before Fang Heng raised his hand.
From the remains of the holy explosion, several gray crystals flew into Fang Heng's palm.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
[Hint: The player has obtained corrupted crystals*7.]
Done! Let's go!
With the corrupted crystals in his hands, Fang Heng did not stop for even a second. He turned around and ran.
He quickly returned to the low house behind him.
When Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu saw Fang Heng return, they looked at him strangely.
How long had it been?
If they had spent more time, they would have been able to get rid of this batch of Hell Mandalas, but they would never have been able to do it as easily as Fang Heng.
Moreover, he was using the power of the holy element.
No matter how they thought about it, it felt weird.
"Let's go back."
…
In the hall of the broken church, Ruan Ziying was still hiding in the room to observe the Hell Mandala's condition.
She heard hurried footsteps behind her.
Ruan Ziying turned around and saw Fang Heng bringing Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu from the underground passage.
"You got it? So fast?"
"Well, it's not that difficult."
Fang Heng opened his hand, and five corrupted crystals appeared in his palm.
Ruan Ziying was shocked. She sized up Fang Heng from head to toe.
Not difficult?
If it wasn't difficult, would the corrupted crystals be so valuable outside?
"How did you do it?"
"I used a little strategy."
Fang Heng felt that it was not difficult.
Since the corrupted creatures with the Hell Mandala flower buds were difficult to move, they often gathered in groups of three to five. They could also absorb the nutrients of their own kind, so the ordinary corrupted life forms and Fallen Ones nearby were cleaned up.
He even thought of planting a circle of Hell Mandalas outside the church.
Considering the difficulty of the transplant, the idea was dispelled as soon as it was mentioned.
Fang Heng shrugged. He didn't want to delve further into this topic, so he asked, "What's next? Now that we have obtained the corrupted crystals, what should we do next?"
"Hmm, leave the rest to me. The Hell Mandala flower's absorption and corrupted crystals need to be specially processed. Otherwise, a large part of the decay that provides nutrients for the Hell Mandala flower will be absorbed by the host. At that time, we will have to deal with the host, which will be very troublesome."
Ruan Ziying explained in a low voice, thinking that it was finally time for her to make a move.
"Whoosh…"
Ruan Ziying's spirit power condensed, and a pale green light quickly circled her hand.
It was natural energy!
Fang Heng recognized these light spots at a glance.
Ruan Ziying took the corrupted crystal from Fang Heng's hand and carefully walked to the Hell Mandala.
A pale green light enveloped the corrupted crystal and Hell Mandala.
"Chi chi…"
Under the influence of the natural aura, the rotting matter under the Hell Mandala flower slowly squirmed. The bud of the Hell Mandala flower slowly opened a hole and wrapped the corrupted crystal inside.
After absorbing the power of the crystal, the Hell Mandala flower gradually recovered from its original half-dead appearance until it slowly bloomed in front of everyone's eyes, emitting waves of fragrance.
"It's fine now."
Ruan Ziying said in a low voice. She took out a cutting tool from her backpack and carefully cut off the entire root of the Hell Mandala flower. Finally, she stored it in the nature spell box.
After doing all this, Ruan Ziying handed the box to Fang Heng.
"It's done. What did you say? You have to pay more."
"Yes, no problem."
Fang Heng took the box and quickly put it into his backpack.
[Hint: The player has obtained an item-Red Hell Mandala.]
With it, the mission could be completed!
Controlling the Hell Mandala consumed a lot of Ruan Ziying's energy. She stood up and stretched her body, asking, "Fang Heng, we have already obtained the Hell's Mandala. Your mission in this world is almost complete. Can we leave now? I don't want to stay here any longer."
"Indeed, we can consider leaving. However, there are still some troublesome matters that I might need your help with."
"Hmm? What?"
Fang Heng rubbed his chin.
The sealed Sheng Tao!
Sheng Tao was currently sealed by the holy beam space. Leaving him here would benefit the Occult Joint Committee.
He might even let Sheng Tao get out of trouble and bring him even more trouble.
He had to think of a way to take the entire holy beam space with him.
Fang Heng had a rough idea of how to make use of Sheng Tao.
"Let's go. Follow me. You'll know when you see it."
…
Five minutes later, everyone followed Fang Heng to the lower level of the Temple of Faith.
The golden polyhedron continuously emitted a dark golden light.
Sheng Tao was still in a suppressed state, unconscious.
Everyone saw Sheng Tao being suppressed by the seal with their own eyes. The way they looked at Fang Heng changed.
Fang Heng thought for a long time.
In the end, he decided to try his best to bring Sheng Tao back with him!
The risk was huge, and the benefits would definitely not be small!
The problem was that Sheng Tao was currently in a sealed state, and he could not be stored in his backpack in this state.
If he wanted to bring him back, he would have to use the ultra-small spatial teleportation hub.
Considering that the teleportation hub of the octagonal seal was currently unavailable, the teleportation hub was not available.
He needed to bring the holy beam space away from the slums.
He sensed trouble.
Moving the holy beam space was very troublesome. Fang Heng had to stand on the side and control it personally, and there were a large number of Occult Committee investigators guarding the periphery of the slums.

1550 Pack up
After hearing Fang Heng's rough idea, Luo Xu thought about it and shook his head. He said, "It's very difficult. There are people from the Occult Investigation Committee outside. It's difficult to avoid their search with such a bag. It's also difficult to escort him out. Also, I'm not sure if the sealed object's state is stable. There are too many uncertainties."
"I'm already digging the passage, but there are very few underground passages in the area outside the slums. We need to dig again. It's very difficult to continue digging, and the efficiency is very slow. Therefore, we need your help to help us out from the periphery."
Fang Heng looked at Ruan Ziying with a pleading look.
Ruan Ziying looked at Fang Heng and then at the holy beam space that sealed Sheng Tao. She sighed heavily in her heart.
Sending the representative of the Revolution Society out of the slums?
What about after sending it out? Lock him up?
Was there any point in expending so much effort?
She felt that Fang Heng was really too crazy.
"So what do you want to do with Sheng Tao? The Revolution Society will definitely investigate after they find out that Sheng Tao is missing. Believe me, they have the ability to find Sheng Tao! It's too dangerous."
Fang Heng shook his head and didn't reveal the space passage holy weapon. He only said, "It's related to the mission, so I suggest you don't know. Otherwise, you might trigger a taboo. In short, I have a way to deal with Sheng Tao."
Ruan Ziying's face turned serious as she nodded and said, "Alright then."
She had thought that it was just a normal mission. How did it suddenly become like this?
In order to help Fang Heng, Ruan Ziying's hair had been falling off in clumps for the past two days.
After thinking for a moment, Ruan Ziying snapped her fingers and said, "Alright, I can think of a way to help you leave the slums with the holy beam space, but there's a condition."
"Please speak."
"Right now, everyone in the world is looking for you. You're in grave danger. If I can't send you out of this world, I'll be in big trouble as well. So, after this matter is over, you must quietly hide until I escort you out of the game."
"Don't continue to cause trouble!"
Ruan Ziying was really afraid of Fang Heng.
There were only three days left in the game.
It had only been two days!
How many things had happened?
Fang Heng had already pierced a hole in the sky.
Ruan Ziying didn't dare to think about what would happen if he was left wandering outside for another day.
At that time, she would be dragged into the waters!
"Alright."
Fang Heng immediately nodded in agreement.
The game prompted him that there were more than 400 days left in the pollution. He had enough time to think of a way to deal with the pollution.
In addition, his original plan to enter Watts had been completed.
He should go back earlier.
After obtaining the S-level plant, he would immediately exchange for the method to transplant the sacred tree, Abe Akaya, after returning. This could be considered as solving a huge problem.
After that, he would go back and develop himself. He still had to settle his score with Viona.
Ruan Ziying finally heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Fang Heng agree so readily.
"Oh right, there's one more thing besides the holy beam space."
"What?"
"There's also a group of Holy Court believers. They've been following me since Gan Honghua died. I hope I can take them with me. They know about me. Once the Occult Investigation Committee finds out about me, it'll be very troublesome to interrogate them one by one."
With Gan Honghua's death, the entire Holy Court's influence in Watts collapsed.
The rest of the believers had no good impression of the Occult Investigation Committee officials under Gan Honghua's guidance.
After Fang Heng's deception, the believers of the Holy Court now followed Fang Heng's lead. They quickly reached an agreement and decided to leave with Fang Heng to continue their pursuit of the Holy Light.
It was worth mentioning that because Yu Jiayuan was contaminated, the contamination in the octagonal seal increased rapidly. She could not wait any longer, so she left alone through a passage in advance. She even agreed on contacting Fang Heng and would find a way to meet him after she left.
Fang Heng pondered for a moment.
The Book of Oaths was extremely powerful, but it was very troublesome to charge it. In the future, he could not always rely on the energy of holy equipment to recover.
This batch of believers of the Holy Court was not bad.
Take it away.
When the time comes, he would bring them back to the Zombie Apocalypse together.
Wasn't the Temple of Zeus built in the Zombie Apocalypse? Let them spread their faith there and charge the Book of Oaths!
Ruan Ziying felt her scalp itch. She felt as if her hair was about to fall out.
It was already troublesome enough to bring one person away. Now, they had to form a group.
"Ahem." Seeing Ruan Ziying's distressed look, Fang Heng also realized that his request was a little difficult. He coughed lightly and added, "I can pay more."
Ruan Ziying's heart skipped a beat when she heard this.
KPI!
After thinking about it carefully, they were going through the underground passage to the periphery of the slums anyway. It was not impossible to bring them out from the periphery, but it would be a little troublesome and risky.
For KPIs!
Let's fight it out with this one!
"Good! A total of 30 universe crystals! I'll think of a way for you. In addition, I need your cooperation to leave this place. Also, the Hell Mandala collection process fee is 1 crystal. To help you take such a huge risk here, you have to pay 5 universe crystals!"
Ruan Ziying gritted her teeth and agreed. She also calculated the score for Fang Heng.
Fang Heng made a quick calculation.
Universe crystals were the product of condensing universe crystals, it was equivalent to condensing, and it had an even more condensed power.
In the game, only a portion of the game world had the ability to condense universe crystals. Due to the technological level of each world, it was often only possible to condense one crystal from a universe crystal ore weighing more than 1kg.
"Sure."
Fang Heng agreed immediately.
"Hmm, how about this? The holy beam space is too conspicuous now. We'll find a way to wrap it up first. Then, you guys pretend to break through the slums from the right area to attract the attention of the Occult Investigation Committee. We'll take advantage of the chaos to bring the believers and the holy beam space out with you…"
Ruan Ziying took out a map from her backpack and quickly made an escape plan.
"Let's break through Point A and lure the people from the Investigation Committee over…"
Soon, everything was ready. Now, all they had to do was wait for Fang Heng's zombie clones to dig out a passage leading to Point E.
Everyone fell silent again. They looked at each other.
"In that case…The passage leading to the slums is still being excavated. We still have some free time. Ruan Ziying, it will take some time for you to contact your people to come and pick us up, right?"
Fang Heng licked his lips and looked at Ruan Ziying.
Ruan Ziying looked at Fang Heng's gaze and responded with a puzzled look. She felt a chill down her spine.
"Hmm? What do you want?"
"There are still a lot of Hell Mandalas left in the slums. Since we have nothing to do, I think we can get more Hell Mandalas back?"

1551 Evacuation
Fang Heng had been planning this for a long time.
It was said that the opportunity for the Red Hell Mandala to bloom was very rare.
What a coincidence!
There were so many Hell Mandalas in the slums.
Obtaining corrupted crystals was not difficult for him.
It was rare for him to play an advanced game, he could use this chance to get everything in one wave.
Ruan Ziying swallowed her saliva carefully and looked at Fang Heng in surprise.
"You, you can get more Hell Mandalas?"
Of course.
The Book of Oaths could be said to be destructive against the Hell Mandala's host.
As long as he gathered the corrupted crystals and with Ruan Ziying's help, he could easily get the Hell Mandala!
"Theoretically, there is no problem."
Fang Heng nodded. He thought of something and looked at Ruan Ziying.
"I remember that your company also buys special materials, right? The purchase price of the Hell Mandala is…"
Ruan Ziying suddenly felt a little dizzy.
Even so, she still gave a professional bid.
"A rare and wondrous material. The purchase price is about 10-300 universe crystals. Hell Mandala is very difficult to obtain. One would probably require…"
Ruan Ziying paused.
"If I remember correctly, in the past three years, the purchasing price fluctuated between 65 to 70 universe crystals."
"Then I'll have to trouble you. I still need your help to collect the Hell Mandalas later. Don't worry, I'll definitely pay you enough for the labor fee."
Fang Heng smiled warmly.
It was good.
He was back to his expertise.
There was still plenty of time left.
Then let's farm!
Ruan Ziying stared blankly at Fang Heng and gradually began to react.
She had lost a lot of her hair, and she had only received less than 40 universe crystals for helping Fang Heng. Yet, the other party had sold one of them for 65?
So the wool came from the sheep?
"Luo Xu, Sun Zhaoyu, let's go and find Hell Mandalas. Time is tight, so we need to farm as many as we can."
"Alright…"
Leaving Ruan Ziying, who was still in a daze, to do the math, Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu hurriedly followed Fang Heng and left first, exchanging glances with each other.
First, he took away a Hell Mandala.
Then, he took a huge risk to take away the sealed Sheng Tao.
Not only that he was also going to bring the group of believers left behind by the Holy Court away.
Now, he wants to farm all the Hell Mandalas in the slums?
Could it be that the demonic seed in Fang Heng's body was…
…
Outside the slums, it was already afternoon, but the sky was as dark as night. The octagonal seal in the sky continued to operate.
"Report, there are some Fallen Ones on the right side!"
"Warning!"
"Requesting backup!"
"Team F is heading to support. We have confirmed the location of the wanted man-Sun Zhaoyu!"
There was a riot in the western area of the slums, and the Occult Joint Committee was immediately mobilized. Apart from the need to protect the area, the temporary command center immediately transferred a portion of personnel to the western area to support.
At the same time, Fang Heng quietly crawled out from an underground area on the east side of the slums.
The sealed holy beam space floated in front of Fang Heng.
The outer layer of the holy beam space had already been covered with several layers of black cloth, but it was still emitting a faint dark golden light.
Fang Heng turned on his phone and dialed Ruan Ziying's number.
"I'm here."
"Alright, follow your right and leave. You will see a small path after that. Walk along the small path and in about ten minutes, you will see a bus. I am on the bus. Be careful, you may encounter patrol squads along the way. Kill them immediately. Remember to shake off your tail before you board the bus."
"Alright."
Fang Heng hung up the phone and immediately rushed to the right with his followers.
Ruan Ziying had already prepared an escape route.
Theoretically, they wouldn't encounter any trouble halfway, unless they were very unlucky.
Fang Heng followed the guide and soon found the small path Ruan Ziying mentioned. He sped up and ran along the small path.
After running for less than two minutes, Fang Heng's heart sank.
Suddenly, a group of people appeared in front of them.
By the time they saw the opponent's attack, it was already too late for them to dodge.
"Stop! Who is it?"
It was an ordinary inspection team that the government had sent to cooperate with the blockade of the slums.
When the team leader saw so many unknown members suddenly appearing outside the sealed area, he initially thought that they had encountered ordinary loitering people and immediately shouted to stop them.
"This place has been designated as a dangerous area. Please come over immediately for investigation!"
This was troublesome!
Fang Heng's heart sank and he whispered, "I will handle this, you guys retreat first!"
"Yes!"
A layer of rotting substance quickly appeared on Fang Heng's face, covering his face. He then sped up and approached the official team in front of him.
Everyone in the team used their flashlights and immediately noticed Fang Heng's rotting face. They immediately raised their guns and aimed at Fang Heng.
"Not good! It's the Fallen Ones!!"
"Stop!"
"Call for backup!"
"Area D, traces of the Fallen Ones found!"
"Don't come any closer!"
"Fire!!"
"Bang! Bang Bang Bang!!"
A special bullet that had been modified by occultism shot out from the muzzle!
Special bullets can affect the corrupted and the Fallen Ones.
However, in actual combat, firearms were extremely limited to the Fallen Ones who had physical fitness that surpassed ordinary people.
As long as they missed, it would be useless!
Fang Heng raised his hand.
"Whoosh!"
The vampire's barrier suddenly lit up in front of him.
The concentrated bullets lost their strength when they hit the barrier and fell.
Seeing this, everyone's expressions changed drastically.
"Not good! It's an A-level Fallen One!"
Government inspectors rarely experienced such situations. At most, they would deal with low-level D-level Fallen Ones.
"Whoosh!"
The leader was about to say something when a figure suddenly flashed past his eyes.
"Bang!!!"
The leader felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen. Then, he lost consciousness and flew backward.
The rest of the inspectors turned pale as they stared at Fang Heng. Their hands trembled as they held their guns.
Fang Heng looked at the crowd and shouted in a deep voice, "Get lost!"
The inspectors felt like they had been pardoned. They quickly went back to help the wounded up and retreated together.
[Hint: The player has spread chaos in the city. The player's elementary demon bloodline experience points 121.]
Fang Heng looked at the game notification.
This was also considered spreading chaos?
It seemed that leveling up the demon bloodline was not as difficult as he had imagined.
Perhaps he could find an opportunity to level up after he left.
"Let's go!"
There was no time to think about these things with the trouble in front of him. Fang Heng waved his hand and left quickly with the believers of the Holy Court behind him.
Soon, Fang Heng saw a bus parked by the roadside not far away.
Ruan Ziying had been waiting on the bus for a long time. When Fang Heng and the group from the Holy Court boarded the bus, she immediately stepped on the accelerator and drove the bus away.
Phew…
As they gradually left the slums, Fang Heng glanced at the holy beam space on the bus seat beside him and heaved a sigh of relief.
Everything went smoothly.
The process was a little thrilling, but the final result was still acceptable.
Fang Heng looked at Ruan Ziying in the driver's seat and asked, "Where are we going next?"

1552 Neighboring Country
"Put on a disguise. I'll take you to the neighboring country immediately. There are new clothes and a new identification card under everyone's seat. I've already asked my friends to help me settle the border. They won't check it carefully, but you still have to change your clothes and remember your names in case of emergencies."
"If I leave for too long, I will attract the attention of the Occult Committee. We will separate when we reach the border of the neighboring country. I will return immediately and pass on the information about the slums to you at any time. As for your friend who will follow me, he will arrange for you to enter the neighboring Brickruder District."
"Yes, thank you."
Fang Heng nodded in thanks.
As for after entering the neighboring country, Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu would take care of the rest.
They also had a Fallen Ones faction there. They would find a safe place to settle down and quietly wait until tomorrow night before leaving Watts.
Fang Heng was a little tired from the continuous battle. He roughly estimated the follow-up arrangements and closed his eyes in the backseat.
After the previous battle, the pollution in his sea of consciousness increased again.
There were 271 days left before it was completely contaminated.
There was enough time.
It was enough for him to think of a solution.
Of course, there was still Viona.
That woman.
Fang Heng narrowed his eyes.
No matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't defend against her and was tricked by her.
However…
This matter would not end so easily.
…
In the periphery of the slums, more and more people gathered.
Apart from the members of the Occult Investigation Committee from various countries, there was also a portion of the members of the Revolution Society.
Many of the higher-ups were gathered in the temporary command room tent.
Shan Fucai was waiting not far away from the tent. He stubbed out a cigarette impatiently, his thoughts in a mess.
Sheng Tao had not appeared since he entered the octagonal seal.
Was he missing?
The Revolution Society had a huge reaction.
He had a premonition that something must have happened in the slums.
Could it be that Sheng Tao couldn't even deal with Fang Heng?
"How is it?"
Shan Fucai turned his head and looked at Ruan Ziying who was walking towards him. He asked, "You went out just now?"
"Yes, I have something to settle."
"Previously, there were reports that the inside of the sealed-off area was attacked by the Fallen Ones. Some unknown people were also discovered."
"No, they are probably just Fallen Ones who came from the outside to support us."
After Ruan Ziying brought Fang Heng to the border and handed him over to the commission, she immediately rushed back to keep an eye on this place. She pretended to be calm and looked inside the sealed area, asking, "Is the situation inside okay?"
"The people from the Revolution Society are here. They have just organized a group of people to enter the sealed area to investigate. It seems that they have encountered a very troublesome matter."
…
At night, in the Brickruder District, Fang Heng sat in a cafe on the corner of the street and poured himself a small cup of coffee, thinking about everything that had happened since he entered the game world of Watts.
In the afternoon, he had completely changed into a new identity.
The other believers of the Holy Court were also temporarily placed in a high-class hotel by Luo Xu.
The sealed Sheng Tao was taken by Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu to a hidden private villa to hide, and Sun Zhaoyu brought a few of his subordinates to guard him 24 hours a day.
It seemed that the matter had come to an end, but Fang Heng admitted that his understanding of this world was still insufficient.
Taking advantage of this period of rest, he needed to think of a way to understand more.
Fang Heng raised his head.
Yu Jiayuan walked into the coffee shop. She wore a mask and a hat on her head, looking fully armed.
After seeing Fang Heng, Yu Jiayuan quickly walked over and sat opposite him.
She looked at Fang Heng uneasily and said, "Fang Heng, I didn't expect you…"
"Shh."
Fang Heng made a gesture to whisper, "Don't mention that word in front of outsiders. I will help you think of a way to deal with the pollution on your body."
Yu Jiayuan took a deep breath and said, "Okay, thank you."
Of course, she knew what Fang Heng meant.
The demonic seed!
Yu Jiayuan had never expected that the rumored demonic seed that the Revolution Society had been searching for would actually be by her side!
Fang Heng continued, "Similarly, in exchange, I need your help."
Ever since he was tricked, Fang Heng had become more careful.
Especially when it involved Viona, the runes, and rituals on his body.
He wasn't 100% sure about what Luo Xu had said about the demonic seed, so he wanted to try and get some confirmation from Yu Jiayuan.
"As long as you can help me get rid of the pollution, I'll do anything."
"Tell me what you know first. Let's start with the few forces in this world."
Ever since he had joined Watts, he had been confused by the appearance of the Occult Research Society, the Fallen Ones legion, the Revolution Society, and the Conservatives.
It was too chaotic.
He needed time to sort it out.
"Yes."
Hearing Fang Heng's question, Yu Jiayuan muttered to herself.
She had already been contaminated for the second time. This time, she had decided to put all her eggs in one basket and pin all her hopes of removing the contamination on Fang Heng.
Even if telling Fang Heng these things would trigger taboos and aggravate pollution, she decided to do so.
"Alright, let's start with the factions you mentioned just now."
Fang Heng straightened his body and became more serious as he answered, "Yes."
"From the information released by the government to the Occult Research Society and the views of most mainstream academics, most people believe that the first person to discover the existence of the contamination was an archmage named Anthony. After he was mentally contaminated, he founded a school of thought that focused on the worship of the abyss."
"This sect can communicate with hell and obtain the power of hell"
"However, there is a price to pay for using this power. In order to prevent the world from being destroyed, Anthony set a series of taboos. Those who violate the taboos will be contaminated and will be hunted down by the school Anthony founded."
"These are the mainstream views of occultism scholars. There are some things that don't make sense, and I don't know if they're true or not."
Fang Heng nodded and said, "Alright, continue."
"The current situation is that as time passes, the faction that Anthony founded gradually evolved into two types. The first type is the Conservatives faction. This faction rarely appears in front of outsiders. They have always maintained their tradition and will secretly hunt down those who violate the taboo."
"The second type is the reformists, which is the Revolution Society that was hunting you down previously."
At the mention of the reformists, Yu Jiayuan looked at Fang Heng carefully.
"It's a group of people who split off from the abyss worship school that Anthony left behind. They completely ignored the rules and taboos that Anthony left behind. They used the power to communicate with hell without restraint and cooperated with demons and evil spirits. Their strength has increased explosively in recent years."
