CHAPTER 902: CHAPTER 728: RUINED SKY DEMON LORD (PART 3)

"What is happening... Why would I do something like this?"

In the chaotic crowd, there were vaguely two reactions. Most people were indignant, longing to rise up, but a small portion of them were overcome by the instinct of survival, overcoming their yearning for free will, and soberly retreating.

Immortal Master Lingyu observed this and simply raised her right hand.

When dozens of breaths later, there were still people unwilling to leave and kept being noisy, she gave a cold command.

"Arrest them all, but kill any revolter without mercy."

Upon receiving the order, many Void Immortals, Saints, and Devas instantly rushed into the crowd.

In this world where a body can be imbued with immense power, as long as no one at the very pinnacle of this world commands to deter, ordinary people, no matter how many, can hardly cause any significant upheaval.

As these cultivators started capturing people and directly killing those who stubbornly resisted, the stimulation of blood finally made the ordinary people, whose minds and wills were almost assimilated and corrupted, react.

Although quite a few were severely "assimilated," shouting the slogan "Give me liberty or give me death," and launched a desperate counterattack, facing the absolutely dominant side of Immortal Master Lingyu, they were quickly suppressed and slain.

...

Three hours later, the entire city calmed down and entered silence.

But...

Looking at the severely damaged city buildings and the streets piled with corpses, whether it was Immortal Master Lingyu or Zhao Xi who had arrived in incarnate form, their expressions were somewhat grim.

"Casualties... are they this severe..."

Zhao Xi’s expression was grave: "This is not normal."

"These people acted as if they had lost their self-judgment and reasoning, frantically attacking and resisting our people... This doesn’t seem like they were merely manipulated by some evil organization, but rather as if some invisible force affected and controlled them."

Immortal Master Lingyu said confusedly: "But I didn’t feel any trace of someone deploying a secret technique."

"Of course you couldn’t sense it, they are using their own power."

Zhao Xi said just as he was about to speak further.

At this moment, a piece of information suddenly arrived, and immediately, his face turned grave again: "The matter here has been noticed by the Freedom Church people in other cities, and the scale of upheaval in those cities is even larger than we imagined. If we really follow this violent suppression method one by one, the final casualties will definitely reach over eight figures."

Casualties in the tens of millions, during the period of war against the Devils, naturally wouldn’t be a significant issue.

But in these years, the development of the Longevity World has gradually stabilized, and if tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, of casualties are still caused under such circumstances...

This would undoubtedly be a massive blow to the efforts of their governance over these years.

At this moment, Gu Jinlai’s Divine Thought projected over.

"A new storm has emerged."

He directly said, "This is an invasion by a completely new enemy."

"Invasion?"

"Indeed."

Gu Jinlai quickly informed Zhao Xi of his understanding of this "Divine Spirit" creature, and then said: "I need you to find the root of the Freedom Church, only by locating their root can we know where they are truly hiding."

"Root?"

Zhao Xi nodded after listening.

But Immortal Master Lingyu immediately said: "According to our information, the initial appearance of the Freedom Church... was in the Purple Light Cave Heaven!"

"Purple Light Cave Heaven?"

Zhao Xi was stunned, then immediately said: "The city cluster located beside the Blood Moat Demon Abyss, guarded by Purple Light Immortal Master!? Blood Moat Demon Abyss!?"

Gu Jinlai also quickly realized something.

In the next moment, his Divine Thought spread like a storm rapidly towards the direction of the Blood Moat Demon Abyss.

Although the Lingyu Cave Heaven City Group is tens of thousands of miles away from the Blood Moat Demon Abyss City Group, his current Divine Sense Ability, aided by the Thunder Punishment Eye, has a maximum probing range of millions of miles, and under concentrated focus, this Cave Heaven City Group with a population of four hundred million leapt to the forefront of his vision.

Upon reaching this city group, Gu Jinlai clearly felt a special power enveloping the sky above the city group.

This is...

The will of an individual.

And also the power of all living beings.

"The mastermind behind all this is the Demon Realm!"

"I contacted Purple Light Immortal Master, but received no response."

At this time, Zhao Xi spoke again.

"Just go and see it for yourself."

Gu Jinlai said to Zhao Xi: "Besides, tell those who are controlling the Cave Heaven City Groups to stay vigilant! The enemy is already here! If we don’t want a future where all life is devastated and rivers of blood flow, we absolutely must not allow those Freedom Church members to gather and form a climate."

While giving orders, he leaped from the city, quickly crossed the space, and headed straight for the Purple Light Cave Heaven City Group.

Immortal Master Lingyu, after making slight arrangements for important matters here, also didn’t hesitate, quickly flying up to follow Gu Jinlai.

...

At the same time.

The Eternal Life Tower of the Demon Realm.

In this tower, a figure over ten meters tall, bathed in a radiance of seven colors from head to toe, seemed to have received some news.

"Have they been noticed? However, it is meaningless now; the seed has already been planted, and it’s only a matter of time before it takes root and grows."

He slightly moved his body: "We just need to buy them a little time to assist in their smooth growth."

"This is all thanks to your efforts, Ruined Sky."

Demon Lord Cangming, shrouded in a black robe, exuded spiritual fluctuations: "It’s a pity I won’t see the day when this world, we’ve managed for hundreds of years, is entirely swept away."
