Chapter 19 You shall not pass!

A huge ceremony of cutting off all the flesh from the arms and spilling it at the feet.

In just a few moments, the old man cut off all the flesh and blood on his left hand.

But the gray ceremony only illuminated the part beneath their feet.

The entire ceremony is still a long way from being completely lit up.

This made the gentleman feel slightly uneasy.

Although he helped to complete this ancient magic, as a demigod he had sacrificed an arm, so why did he only activate this little bit?
Thinking about this, the gentleman stepped back slightly.

He had some suspicion that the other party wanted to use the convenience of the ritual to launch a sneak attack on him at the last minute.

Then add yourself to the ritual.

"I need to maintain my secrecy outside. Otherwise, even if he is holding me back, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep it secret."

The old man didn't notice the problem, or he didn't seem to care whether the gentleman was deceiving him.

The old man simply continued to chip away at the flesh of his other arm.

He had no intention of stopping the gentleman from leaving, and even nodded slightly in greeting while continuing to cut away at his own flesh and blood.

This made the gentleman very surprised.

This guy didn't use any method to relieve the pain.

He just used some method that even the gentleman didn't quite understand to keep cutting meat by himself as a puppet.

Because pain is also the nourishment of the chaotic creature that is the demon.

The gentleman shook his head and left in a hurry.

Instead, he continued his secrets in the distance.

At the same time, also observing everything here.

Just as the gentleman had expected at the beginning, even if he turned himself into a puppet and cut off all the flesh and blood, the ceremony only lit up one-third of the range.

It is still far from what a gentleman considers to be a complete journey.

Going to fail?

Gentleman could not imagine the possibility of success.

This guy has already sacrificed all his flesh and blood, and I, the potential 'sacrifice', have also left.

How does he continue?

Is this a plan that our two families have invested so much money on going to be ruined in such a mess?

The gentleman suddenly felt like a fool.

But what the gentleman never expected was that after the old man had eliminated all that was left of him, leaving only a black skeleton, he actually raised his hand and smashed his own skull.

Then he placed the still living brain in the palm of his hand.

"No, could this guy be?"

The gentleman suddenly understood the other party's real intention.

The old man holding his brain used the movement of his skull to utter a praise that he should not be able to utter:
"My great Lord, I dedicate everything I have to your coming and returning!"

"From body to soul!"

The moment he heard this, the gentleman knew that he had guessed correctly.

This guy doesn't just want to sacrifice his own flesh and blood and life.

He even offered his own soul.

He wants to deny the correct death and refuse to go to the destination bestowed upon all living beings by the original God.

This is a serious crime of blasphemy against the origin and the world!
He himself will stop here forever, without even the slightest possibility of resurrection.

The gentleman finally understood how he was going to light up the remaining two-thirds.

One third comes from his soul.

A third comes from his blasphemy.

In other words, he divides himself into two parts: the whole and the profane.

Half is used to build a door for demons to pass through the abyss, and the other half is used to create a temporary anchor for demons to survive in the world.

Demons are creatures of chaos and depravity, and there is nothing better to serve as their temporary anchor than the primal sin of blasphemy.

But why?
If it was just his own death, then he could still barely understand it.

But now he even offered his soul.

Why would he fight so hard to summon a mortal demon lord.

If that is his belief.

So why summon your own faith to come to this world to die?

Even a Sequence 3 Demon Lord would definitely not be able to survive the siege of the five demigods and the entire Suras!

Wait, he’s a demigod himself.

Would a Sequence 4 demigod really believe in another demigod?

The gentleman felt as if he had suddenly grasped something.

But it still wasn't right, he was the one who helped complete this ritual.

It is impossible for higher-ranking demons to descend through a ceremony of this standard.

What went wrong?
Gentleman cannot comprehend the present situation.

But for the first time, the old man let out a startling wail.

He gave his soul.

The burning and tearing from the depths of the soul is something that a person cannot deny with his will.

His skeleton had been completely shattered and integrated into the ritual.

His soul is also constantly integrating into it.

But even this is painful.

He still chanted his own hymn:
"You are the Lord of the Seven Abyss, and you are the holder of the Principle of Corruption."

“You are the forerunner among the great ones, and you are the merciful among the forerunners.”

"You are the wings of darkness, you are the embodiment of the flames of hell."

"Praise, all living things, the great Lord has come!"

With the final prayer, everything about the old man was integrated into the ceremony.

A huge door materialized from the abyss, tearing through the barriers of the real world and piercing through the top of the mountain.

"The door appeared from the abyss. This is a two-way ceremony. The real boss is on the other side of the abyss. What he has here is just a beacon and a temporary anchor?"

At this moment, the gentleman understood the other party's real plan.

They knew that their group was planning to kill the demons they summoned.

Therefore, they had no intention of summoning a demon lord who was equivalent to a demigod from the very beginning.

Because that would just be their knife and chess piece.

They want to summon a more powerful demon lord who can definitely break the impasse!
Even to blind them to prevent them from discovering the problem and thus disrupting the ceremony.

They, no, it was the Demon Lord who took the initiative to undertake the task of building the door.

For this, he probably killed a fellow rank!
Because the abyss wants to build a door to break through the barrier of the world, and use it to send the words of a demon lord.

According to convention, one can only use another person of the same level as a stepping stone.

All the believers need to do is provide enough temporary anchors and a beacon!
I was cheated, I was cheated from the beginning!
After a brief moment of fear, the gentleman immediately fled without looking back.

The Demon Lord is definitely not someone that Suras and the five demigods can handle.

Her Majesty can, but Her Majesty is still in the Imperial Capital!

The gentleman also knew that if he were the Demon Lord, he would definitely prepare a way to delay the Queen so that he could destroy Suras and obtain an anchor that would allow him to remain in the world for a longer period of time.

The gentleman didn't know how the Demon Lord would do this, but he knew that he would definitely do it!
What's more, it would take no effort for an angel to destroy Suras.

So Suras was finished, but the empire would not and could not be destroyed, so he had to escape and pray that the demon lord could destroy Suras more thoroughly.

In this way, the two families will have the possibility to withdraw further.

Because by then all evidence will be gone, and the best thing to do is to deal with the Demon Lord.

The gentleman was the one who ran away, and a huge, ferocious claw covered with deep flames stretched out directly from the door.

One was embedded in the land of the present world.

Then he pulled it forward violently, and the goat-horned demon, as tall as a mountain, broke through the door with flames and chaos from the abyss.

Into the present world!
The Demon Lord of Sequence 2 has arrived!
At this moment, countless churches in the city of Suras rang their bells in a hurry.

This is the gods and kings warning people that the blasphemer from the abyss has appeared in the world.

On the hillside outside the city, although His legs had been cut off long ago, His Sequence 2 status allowed Him to appear, which directly affected the entire surrounding area.

The earth cracked instantly, the vegetation began to turn into demons, and the sky fell into darkness.

This horrifying scene only came to an end when the pollution from the abyss reached the blessed walls of Suras.

At this moment, the defenders of Suras were quickly climbing the city wall under the command of the demigod.

"Never look directly at the other person, and always pray to your faith. Otherwise you will be contaminated!"

"If you feel anything wrong with your body, leave the city wall immediately and go to the nearest church!"

The demigod's anxious voice floated in the soldiers' ears.

They couldn't face off against a demon lord head on.

Even the enemy's pollution needs to be resisted by the walls of Suras that have stood for a thousand years.

Without this wall filled with the blessings of countless saints, they would really have no chance of fighting against the angels.

As long as we can get through the beginning, Her Majesty the Queen will come.

The rest of the Empire's High-Sequence Transcendents will surely come with high-level Sealed Artifacts.

There is a chance, they have a chance to defend Suras!
There might even be a chance to kill this demon who desecrates the world!

But this wall, which could be called the lifeline and hope, was instantly broken in front of the Demon Lord.

All the other party did was raise his hand and throw a poisonous flame spear forward.

With the spear's bang, more than half of Suras's city wall, which was taller than the demon lord, collapsed in an instant.

The vicious flames also spread everywhere at this moment.

Watching the city wall disappear in the blink of an eye.

The remaining demigod collapsed.

"Abandon the city, abandon the city!"

The demigod who was the supreme commander collapsed.

The remaining defenders naturally followed suit and fled.

There is no chance anymore.

Without the blessed walls, they couldn't even resist the other side's divine pollution.

The oppression of the superior over the inferior is vividly reflected in this world.

The only thing we can do now is to escape, and escape as many as possible.

Looking at the fleeing remnants of the army, the demigods and the entire city of Suras.

The Demon Lord, who had to crawl on the ground because his legs were cut off, also let out a joyful and blasphemous grin.

How beautiful!

What a pleasant sound!

What a sweet air!
But this pleasure did not last long.

Because the Demon Lord felt a little uneasy. His long-lost legs began to ache.

Follow the inspiration and look forward.

The poisonous fire that should have spread to half of the city at this time not only failed to spread out.

It even wanes and dies with the arrival of a person.

When the defenders and demigods were fleeing.

The only person who went against the flow in the entire city of Suras stood in front of the Demon Lord holding a snow-white staff.

He raised his staff high and brought it down violently.

Declared his will:

"You are not allowed to pass here!"

The blasphemy and pollution from the abyss and divinity suddenly came under the rod.
