Chapter 50: Talk With The Archbishop 3
"What?" Princess Sylphia and Eleine blurted out together.
Aldrian also stunned but he still silent,
"What?" Princess Sylphia and Eleine blurted out together.
Aldrian was also stunned but remained silent.
"Isn't that the same as the end of the church's legacy? What happened?" Princess Sylphia asked.
"We actually don't know the cause. How could we? That's something only the heavens themselves would know. The lack of purity and its continued deterioration have already endangered our church. Some of us even believe that the heavens have abandoned us. Now you see how dire our situation is," Archbishop Ravin said.
Aldrian finally understood how grim the church's situation was. A religious group like the followers of the Heavenly Direction Church built their foundation on their belief in the mighty heavens. But what happens if the followers start doubting their foundation? What if the deterioration of their holy energy is because the heavens have abandoned them?
Their power would collapse. Many of their followers would develop inner demons, going mad as those inner demons took control. The church's legacy, which has existed for millions of years, would be cut off.
This situation was also alarming because of the prophecy about the continent and the possibility that the devils were the source of the threat. All of this made the church anxious and impatient, desperate for their messiah to appear as soon as possible.
"Do you know the prophecy we shared with the continent's powerhouses 14 years ago?" Archbishop Ravin asked.
"The darkness shrouds heaven and earth, the horror of death follows behind it, the peace of the land is no more, and neither life nor death can escape from it," Aldrian recited.
