Chapter 1105: Shattered Faith
Jiang Yantian felt very comfortable.
That's how it should be.
The destructive golden light slowly pressed down with suffocating pressure.
It did not vanish instantly.
The scene in the city had long since plummeted from initial ecstasy into a deeper hell!
However, it was mostly the strong who were the first to realize this.
Those who lack understanding are still worshipping.
Therefore, the opinions below have long been polarized.
"Heavenly Sage, protect me!"
"Heavenly Sage, I will dedicate my entire life to you..."
"Supreme Heavenly Dao, what have we done wrong?"
"Spare me!"
"Why? Why treat us devout believers like this?"
"We offer our prayers daily, the incense burns without ceasing, and we have never slackened our efforts!"
Joy and piercing, desperate cries and questions erupted like a tsunami!
Ultimately, the voice of the strong prevails.
Those believers who were originally prostrate on the ground, still babbling in prayer, and even moved to tears.
He was somewhat stunned.
What is that? Spare me?
However, when they look at it...
The ecstasy on his face was completely replaced by extreme fear and absurd confusion.
They watched in disbelief as the sacred golden light overhead seemed to purify everything.
It's devouring us at a maddeningly slow pace!
The golden light did not bring the blessings one might have imagined.
Houses on the edge, and creatures that couldn't escape, were like being thrown into an invisible pool of strong acid.
Silently twisting, melting, and decomposing!
There was no violent explosion.
There is only one kind of chilling annihilation!
Before they could even scream, they turned into scattered ashes.
This is a vivid and close-up experience of death.
It amplified the fear of all living beings a million times!
Just as this unspeakable fear reached its peak, and countless people were on the verge of mental collapse.
That grand and majestic voice, yet chillingly cold, was like a divine decree from the heavens.
It resounded throughout the heavens and earth once again.
It clearly penetrates the depths of every soul struggling on the edge of death.
"Your hearts are not devout enough!"
Jiang Yantian's changing voice struck the hearts of every believer.
"Who told you that worshipping a saint requires only some mundane things?"
"So cheap, and you dare to dream of gaining my protection?"
"ridiculous!
"Delusion!"
Every word carries a godlike arrogance and utter contempt for ants!
"Today... was just a small lesson!"
"Many of you will perish!"
"The rest of us should take this as a warning!"
The voice suddenly turned as cold as ice.
"why?"
"why?"
Those who believe in it simply cannot understand it.
It has always been like this.
Why the sudden change of heart?
Some people have come to their senses.
"I understand, I understand."
"Heaven's will cannot suppress the Demon Emperor. Now it continues to rely on the power of faith, but it complains that the faith we give is too weak."
"This is a scheme to exploit people; shameless, utterly shameless!!!"
These words struck like a thunderbolt, instantly becoming a thunderclap.
Many people don't actually have much discernment when faced with life-or-death situations.
It's like hearing the facts.
Jiang Yantian heard it too, and thought it was a good idea.
I hadn't originally thought of it that way.
He spoke again, his voice carrying an unquestionable and terrifying decree.
"From this day forward, one hundred men and one hundred women will be sacrificed daily!"
"To provide me with the essence and vital energy!"
"If there is any violation... delay... impure offering..."
"Exterminate the entire clan!!!"
"Slaughter them all!!!"
"boom!!!"
These words are colder, more blasphemous, and more soul-freezing than the golden light of death.
It exploded in everyone's minds!
The entire region, on the verge of destruction, fell into a deathly silence in an instant!
After a brief period of deathly silence came an even more violent and thorough collapse of faith and raging fury!
"Hahahahahaha!"
An old Taoist priest with long hair and beard suddenly looked up and stared intently at the golden, sacred Heavenly Dao Will in the sky.
This aura is something no one can imitate; it is the very essence of the Heavenly Dao!
His eyes were bloodshot, and he let out a shrill, maniacal laugh!
"The Way of Heaven? Is this the Way of Heaven that we believe in?"
"Divine aura? Bah!"
A cultivator covered in blood pointed at the sky and roared fiercely.
The voice was filled with endless grief, indignation, and mockery!
"This aura is sacred, but this behavior is even worse than that of a demonic cultivator!"
"At least they're using open warfare!"
"The so-called Way of Heaven is nothing but hypocrites!!!"
Countless voices converged.
"Wearing the cloak of holiness, you commit acts more cruel and despicable than demons. You seal off this place and isolate everything, do you think you can hide your disgusting true nature?"
"Bullshit Heavenly Dao! You are the greatest demon in all the heavens and myriad realms! The greatest false god!"
"I must have been blind to have worshipped you, you fiend, for countless years! Bah!!!"
"You want to die, huh? Even if my soul is scattered to the winds, I'll die standing, cursing you, you dog of Heaven, until I die!"
Jiang Yantian looked at those who were cursing and swearing. He thought that these people could be spared and survived to become propagandists.
Those spineless cowards are dead.
Below, people were still yelling, "We're all going to die anyway, let's fight him! Even if it means getting our blood on him!"
Despair breeds courage, disillusionment ignites madness!
Watching countless people silently melt away at the edge of the golden light.
Hearing the blasphemous command to "offer to men and women to consume their essence."
All lingering fear vanished in this moment.
It was completely consumed by overwhelming rage and endless shame!
What divine authority?
What do you mean by supreme?
He's nothing but a useless piece of trash who fears the Demon Emperor, wants to improve himself quickly, and disregards the common people.
False God!
Countless cultivators, regardless of their cultivation level, whether they were severely injured or had exhausted their spiritual energy, participated.
Like moths drawn to a flame, they burn their last drop of vital essence.
It burst forth with the most brilliant, yet most desperate, light of its life!
Rays of light, some strong, some weak, carried the message of mutual destruction, flowing upstream.
It crashed headlong into the slowly descending, destructive golden light that represented the "will of Heaven"!
"Boom! Boom boom boom!"
The sounds of impact were incessant!
The light exploded in the golden light and vanished instantly, without even a ripple.
This insignificant resistance was like the roar of millions of ants against a dragon.
It's completely useless.
The golden light continued to press down mercilessly.
The city is crumbling.
Living beings turned to ashes amidst their wails.
The fanatical and ignorant belief in the Way of Heaven that once permeated the entire city has long since vanished!
Instead, it was replaced by a deep-seated hatred!
It is the deepest curse upon the gods!
It is life that erupts in the face of ultimate despair.
Jiang Yantian watched as those people continued to rise, releasing even greater pressure.
"boom!!!"
The golden light of destruction finally stopped its slow downward pressure.
It suddenly unleashed its ultimate annihilating power!
In an instant!
The entire world was swallowed up by pure golden light!
Wherever the light reaches, space itself is completely flattened!
A magnificent city, towering temples, crowded streets, and fleeing creatures.
Everything!
Silently turning into the finest ashes!
There wasn't much of a roar.
There is only one kind of absolute stillness!
As the dazzling golden light gradually dimmed and dissipated.
A gigantic, indescribably dark abyss has appeared!
It exudes an intense, almost unbearable, acrid smell of burnt and death!
The once prosperous and thriving region no longer exists.
