Chapter 939: Wagtail Realm
Now Wen Wen understands what these demons are doing.
According to Lin Huan and others’ investigations, these demons capture people who have a strong longing for the deceased, but this longing is not twisted.
This type of longing causes the souls to regain a certain level of consciousness in the Gray Mist Layer, turning into wandering spirits, but they do not become ghosts that hold abomination towards the living.
The demons use these people and the longing between them and the wandering spirits to perform a special ritual to build a bond between two worlds, trying to open a door from the Inner World to the real world to allow the Pure White Lord to come to the real world!
Wen Wen’s first reaction is to destroy the ritual, but he quickly realizes that it’s not an easy task.
At the entrance of the Temple lies a double-headed Magic Dragon over ten meters long, and on top of the Magic Dragon sits a child with a cherubic face and white wings, like a little angel.
Judging from its aura, it must be an Upper Sequence Level demon. There’s a powerful connection between the child and the Magic Dragon. Although their power doesn’t reach the True Order level, it will take Wen Wen some time to defeat them.
Simultaneously, the Temple has a powerful repulsive force. Unless Wen Wen uses the Calamity Right Hand’s containment ability, he certainly cannot enter.
Moreover, the more than five hundred people inside the temple aren’t dead yet. If Wen Wen makes a move, they’ll surely die.
If Wen Wen has to choose between using these people’s lives or allowing a Catastrophe Demon to enter the real world, he would definitely choose to let them die to keep the Catastrophe Demon out.
After all, even if a Demon Lord is killed as soon as it appears, the destruction it can cause far exceeds what these six hundred or so lives can compensate for, and the lives lost and injured could be in the tens of thousands!
But even if it’s necessary to sacrifice these people, it would only be when there are no alternatives that he would start killing them.
