Such a complete skeleton is not cheap.

After discovering all this, Clement was unable to rescue the elderly, so he burned down the nursing home and took the opportunity to rescue the children from the welfare home.

He took the children back to the village where he was stationed...

His train of thought continued, but was quickly interrupted by the thrusting blade.

Killieman seized the opportunity when Clement was distracted and launched an attack.

For Guilliman, whatever the reason, since Clement chose to betray, he had a duty to punish him and make him pay the price for betraying the Church.

But the next moment, flesh and blood surged from Clement's body, and a monster resembling a child emerged from his body, leaping out and biting Guilliman's blade tightly.

If Guilliman's sword hadn't been made of special materials and if his swordsmanship hadn't been quite good, the brat would probably have bitten a chip off the blade of his sword.

“As expected… you’re touching a taboo!” With a flick of his sword, Guilliman threw the brat aside and looked at Clement with a complicated expression.

Generally, the incredibly valuable Sin Souls are primarily used in three areas.

Demons are promoted, and they receive rewards for sacrificing themselves to the will of the abyss.

The purification sacrifice of the Golden Seeds eradicates their sins through a specific ritual, and in return, they receive blessings from the world. These blessings can further increase the upper limit of the Golden Seeds' stats by fifty to one hundred points, even if they have eight or nine hundred points.

It is one of the top resources for increasing the stats of gold-tier items in the later stages.

The third type is taboo research.

Since the Sin Soul was created by forbidden research, the forbidden traces can be found in the Sin Soul.

Therefore, many individuals who want to continue researching the forbidden want to acquire one or two sinful souls in order to obtain more forbidden information.

Only taboo research can give Clement more time to act during his metamorphosis.

This also explains why he does so many things.

And why are there so many resources to do so much?

Only then can such 'disaster creatures' be cultivated.

That's right, the childlike monster that emerged from Clement is the calamity creature that wreaked havoc on the land after the great catastrophe.

Such creatures are generally uncontrollable by other forces, and even those that have only been tainted by a portion of that force are extremely dangerous.

Most of the calamity creatures are of the Iron type in strength, and those that are slightly stronger can be considered Gold type.

“You can’t stay away from the whale’s back for long, so someone must be supplying you with earth resources,” Killieman asked earnestly.

Which cult have you allied with?

"Worship the Devil Cult?"

"The Cult of Calamity?"

Chapter 351 Demon Lord

Among these forces, Killieman did not consider the fabricated agreement to be one of their collaborators.

The Fictional Protocol has only been established for a short time, and judging from various clues, its current resources are mainly obtained from the floating whales and abyssal imps.

The things involved in the Earth are extremely 'terrifying,' and the Fictional Protocol should not yet be able to access such level of taboos.

Of course, if it continues to drag on, things could get complicated.

There are only a few sources of resources.

The church, to be precise, is God.

A floating whale.

Earth.

And beings like demon lords.

During this process, the demon lords' resources mostly come from the astral plane, the ethereal plane, the outer planes, and so on.

Cults that want to grow will find that they can only seek resources from the earth.

Both the Devil Worship Cult and the Calamity Cult have a deep connection with the earth.

After all, the abyss itself is very barren. Although it is said to be infinitely vast, such infinity is mostly just an imaginary number.

Very few regions possess substantial resources.

Demon lords might be a little better, but only a little better, so most demons are essentially a gang of bandits from the multiverse.

Although the floating whale possesses a large amount of high-quality resources, acquiring a small amount is fine, but acquiring a large amount will result in the church chasing it like a dog.

Therefore, no matter what kind of cult it is, in the end, it can only go to the earth and obtain the resources on the earth.

In this process, one must deal with various taboos and calamities.

The more in-depth the research into forbidden topics, the safer one becomes on a land rife with calamities.

Clement did not answer Guilliman's question, but his flesh and blood surged again, and a little devil crawled out of his body.

Two gold-level imps pounced on Guilliman from the left and right.

Judging solely from their appearance and imposing presence, these two brats are nowhere near as good as the water and fire angels that Rhine summoned back then.

However, if the four summoned creatures fight each other, then the only possible winners are the two imps.

The Water and Fire Angels look strong, but their stats only barely reach 100, and they don't have any Gold-level characteristics.

They may have had great potential, but at that time they were all blank slates.

These little devils are different; their stats aren't low, and their special abilities are also very strong.

This is the difference between seasoned veterans and novices.

The methods have been meticulously crafted; the values, characteristics, techniques, and so on are all at the gold level.

“Killiman, I can only advise you to stop fighting me.”

“If you don’t want anything to happen to the Azure Whale, then retreating now is the best option,” Clement said as he backed away.

The two brats couldn't stop Guilliman; Clement knew how powerful this junior was.

The other party has been a Golden Seed for nearly two hundred years, and its value has increased from over one hundred to around four or five hundred.

This speed is considered fast among all gold varieties.

This indicates that the other party has a stable way of obtaining numbers.

The reason they are currently entangled by the two imps is simply because the imps possess the characteristics of "Calamity Creatures." Because they represent calamity, they are not easily injured by substantial damage, making them a strong counter to life-oriented paladins who lack a high level of understanding.

Now is not the time for him to continue fighting Guilliman; he needs to get his hands on the Sin Soul as soon as possible. Although he is cooperating with the Cult of the Devil, their relationship is merely one of cooperation.

If necessary, the other party may also provoke conflict.

The purpose of the Demon Worship Cult is very clear: to target the Azure Whale.

The so-called "Demon Worship Cult" does not mean worshipping all demons; its essence is the private army of the demon lord in the material plane.

The purpose of these private armies is to help the demon lords invade the material plane, then corrupt the floating whales and drag them into the abyss.

In terms of size and total quantity, a floating whale is naturally inferior to a material plane.

However, as a mythical creature, the floating whale has an extremely high internal quality.

Hunting more floating whales is a great boost for a demon lord. It may not necessarily lead to becoming a demon prince, but demon lords also vary in strength.

Compared to the safety of a floating whale, the sinful soul seemed less important.

After Clement subtly pointed this out, Guilliman knew he had no other choice.

And this time they really did suffer a major setback.

Normally, a demon lord plotting against a floating whale would never do so quietly.

Even looking back now, we can see that the foreshadowing had already been revealed.

But this time was different, with Clement, a golden-race priest, acting as a cover.

His control over information within the network far surpasses that of ordinary people, enabling him to conceal a great deal of information.

Another reason lies in the fabricated agreement.

During this period, many traces of demons have appeared around Qiquan City.

But all these demons operate under the guise of fabricated agreements.

Even Clement was doing things under the guise of cooperating with Nemes.

Nemus's identity as a different kind of demon made the appearance of those demons seem plausible.

With both working together, Guilliman had no way of detecting that this was a sign of a demon lord's invasion.

They also missed the best opportunity to completely stop it.

He looked at the prisoners in the city who were killing indiscriminately and understood the root of everything.

The purpose of this chaotic battle is the demon blood sacrifice, which will allow the demon lord's projection to possess most of the original's strength.

Instinctively, Killieman turned and left.

"Balsaze, I'm sorry." Killieman's voice lingered in the air, but he was already far away.

For him, the Sinful Soul was important, but the Floating Whale was even more important.

In the chaotic cemetery, Clement continued to walk inward, with numerous illusions obscuring the changes.

The 'Balthazar' he had previously created through illusion was now being attacked by several imps.

"Barsade, Killieman has given up on you."

"Surrender, you have no reason to live anymore," Clement said, looking at the thin old man opposite him.

The old man was wearing a hat, and his hair and beard were already white, but the platinum color indicated that he was probably blond when he was young.

He was tall and thin, dressed in old hemp clothes, and holding a long-handled shovel in his hand.

The aura emanating from him was merely that of a Steel-type being, yet the Calamity Imps, whom even Guilliman had dared to challenge before, warily circled around him in the face of this old man.

"As a soul of sin, whether I live or die is irrelevant."

“But I will never entrust my soul to someone as filthy and corrupt as you!” Balthazar brandished his long shovel, which transformed into a heavy hammer as he swung it.

At this moment, the hemp clothing he was wearing changed, transforming into a hemp cloak stained with blood.

Clement was about to make his move when he suddenly heard footsteps behind him.

He was slightly taken aback, sensing the other party's presence with his spiritual power, and then uttered a questioning sound.

"Nems?!"

Chapter 352 Calamity

"Oh!"

A violent gust of air surged forth, and the Holy Son Nemus leaped into the air, his sword about to be swung, but he was frozen in place.

Red-Eyed Three crouched not far away, both of its eyes gleaming with a ferocious red light, and the middle pair of eyes was slightly open at this moment.

However, at this moment, those eyes did not swallow up the light.

On the contrary, in those almost black, red eyes, there seemed to be some kind of light gathering.

In those eyes, Nemus even sensed a power similar to that of a saint.

Clearly, although Red-Eyed Three could only be considered a semi-successful experimental subject, in some aspects he did indeed come close to becoming a saint.

On the other hand, Jin Sheng's methods were also quite remarkable.

In terms of approaching sainthood, he was not as extreme as Red-Eyed Three, but his physical condition was clearly more stable.

Like Jane, his saintly essence is embodied in his lungs.

Therefore, his breathing technique is extremely powerful; even a slight breath can generate a huge airflow.

Furthermore, during this process, his exhalation can also form a kind of 'attack,' such as the previous oscillating airflow.

Jin Sheng could even use his breath to emit a special aura that completely covered his body, forming a protective barrier.

In addition, although Jin Sheng does not know swordsmanship, he has mastered extremely rare hand-to-hand combat techniques.
