Chapter 554: The Dangerous Sect from Sigil City(1/4)
The soul returning from the outer plane to the body in the material world is obviously not a pleasant experience.
Because strictly speaking, there is not much difference between this and resurrection.
After all, the essence of many resurrection spells is to pull the soul back from various outer planes and the realm of gods, and then re-stuff it into a corpse that is not too damaged.
If the body is seriously damaged, you must first find a way to repair it completely. At least the head, heart and other important organs must not be damaged.
Otherwise, the soul of the resurrected target may have just been summoned back, and he will immediately experience the pain of sudden death again.
But fortunately, when Sancho's soul was sucked away by the passage, his body did not suffer any harm.
So just a few seconds after the plane transfer ended, he opened his eyes again and struggled to climb up from a thick branch of the Tree of Life.
The next second...
The boy's pupils suddenly dilated and he saw a sight he would never forget.
To be precise, the giant tree in front of me that supports the tree city Sodanisla has completely withered and lost all its vitality.
Dark red liquid like blood flowed out from the gaps in the tree trunk. It was like thick plasma or some kind of gum-like substance, and it was densely spread in every corner of the entire giant tree.
If you look carefully, you can also find that after these viscous substances solidify into the shape of water droplets of different sizes, faces of pain, despair, and sadness will appear on the surface.
There is no doubt that this tree of life, which symbolizes the fate of the forest elf kingdom, has completely died, without even the slightest possibility of resurrection.
Its most precious energy has been completely drained, and the surrounding forests, shrubs, and grasses have also withered, making the land extremely barren.
What’s even more terrifying is that everything within the influence of the Tree of Life has been distorted by some evil force.
Those dead trees present a creepy anthropomorphic state, and from time to time, they will emit painful wails and roars like intelligent creatures from the mouth-like holes.
Even though it is noon when the sun is hanging overhead and the positive energy is at its most abundant, the surroundings still exude a cold, gray, and decayed atmosphere.
Sancho couldn't believe it. He had just left this place not long ago, but everything seemed to be completely different.
At the same time, in the city of Sonnisla on the tree canopy, thousands of ghosts twisted by evil forces can be seen frantically fighting each other.
They are as if they have immortal bodies. No matter how many times they die, they will quickly regenerate on the same spot and join the eternal killing again.
In addition, near the wooden pile not far away, you can also see Irenekas standing motionless like a sculpture.
He was supposed to be dead, but now not only his eye sockets were filled with dark red plasma, but even the torn hole in his chest was filled with blood, maintaining a strange state of neither life nor death.

"Teacher...what exactly happened here?" the boy asked with a slightly trembling voice.
Zuo Si answered straightforwardly: "After you were pulled into Baal's kingdom, the Throne of Blood not only drained all the energy from the Tree of Life, but also injected the divine power of killing and death to completely pollute and transform this place into its current state. Very soon.
Obviously, your father is trying to use this method to make mortals more afraid of him."
"For resurrection?"
Sancho seemed to understand something, and his eyes shone with a strange light.
Zuo Si nodded slightly: "Yes, for resurrection.
Baal's remnant soul has realized that I am interfering to prevent his resurrection, so it wants to bypass me and make some big moves.
For this reason, the divine power stored in the Blood Throne is consumed.
Similarly, the power of all the Sons of Baal has been greatly enhanced to achieve this goal.
After all, the death of a god does not mean that he will completely lose his perception and consciousness.
Their spiritual and philosophical thoughts still exist in the universe, and they can still continue to think and formulate a series of plans.
So don’t underestimate Baal, his control over the Throne of Blood is simply beyond what you, the sons of Baal, can match.”
"What about Aberdare and Irenicus?"
Sancho stared at his teammates lying like corpses next to Irenicas and continued to ask.
Although he already had guesses in his heart, he still hoped to get a definite answer.
"What do you think Irenicas stole from Aberdare?
Is it just divine power and divinity?
No!
What he stole was the soul, a very, very huge fragment of the soul.
So the souls of these two people have long been intertwined.
Although Aberdare destroyed Irenicas' body on the material level, he did not destroy his spirit, nor did he regain his own soul.
Therefore, there is destined to be a battle of souls between them.
As for the others, they were probably dragged by Aberdare into an independent space in the kingdom of Baal, just like the place you entered.
Now you just need to wait a few days and you should have the results.
I don’t think the God of Murder would allow an elf to usurp his own power and become a new god.”
Zuo Si gave a straightforward explanation.
This is why he keeps emphasizing that Irenicus stole Aberdare's "destiny".
After losing such a large piece of his soul, Aberdare could no longer be regarded as a complete son of Baal, nor could he bear to cross the limits of a mortal and completely spiritualize himself into a god.
Only by taking everything back can this guy be qualified to compete with the Five Descendants.
"With divine power, divinity, spirit, soul, as well as understanding and sublimation at the philosophical level, God is really a very complex creature."
After realizing that his teammates were not in any danger, Sancho couldn't help but sigh.
He has experienced so much and grown up so much along the way that he can't even connect with his former self who was running around and wandering.
Especially the improvement in strength, knowledge and ideological realm cannot be described as reborn.
But soon, the boy realized a problem, that is, he had ignited the spark of divinity. Does this mean that he could only go to the dark side on the road to becoming a god?
Just when he raised his head to ask his mentor for advice, he found that Zuo Si had teleported everyone away, including Aberdare and Imoen, and was holding several small cards emitting green and white light in his hand.
Before Sancho had time to react, all these small cards began to release terrifying energy, instantly covering the tree of life and the land and plants that had been eroded by pollution.
The terrifying positive energy directly drove away Baal's evil power, and the huge force of nature repaired the twisted land under his feet at an unimaginable speed.
Even the dead tree of life split from the middle with a snap, and a large number of new shoots sprouted from the middle of the withered trunk.
And these sprouts grow into vines, different types of trees and other plants in a very short time.
Those twisted ghosts also quickly transformed into a form close to the spirit of nature. Not only did they stop fighting and regain their sanity, but they also quickly integrated with the surrounding environment and turned into entities like tree spirits, water fairies, and tree people.<
/p>
The gray sky above turned into a beautiful light blue again, and white light shone through the dense leaves in the forest again.
Sancho couldn't believe it. One second it was a ghostly forest, and the next second it turned into the complete opposite.
What a powerful force this is!
You must know that even if he has become a quasi-god, it is absolutely impossible for him to do this.
Obviously, Zuo Si used the power of planeswalkers to directly restore the ecology of Sodanisla and the surrounding areas of the Tree of Life.
After all, the invasion and pollution caused by the Throne of Blood is still essentially a confrontation of energy.
When the evil power of Baal overcomes the natural power of this land, the plants will inevitably wither, die and become distorted.
But if there is a greater injection of positive energy and natural energy, Baal's evil power can also be driven away and everything can be restored to its original state.
It's just that most mortals are not qualified to control so much energy, and usually can only pray to gods for help.
But for a planeswalker like Zuo Si who already has a spark level of LV25, he only needs to activate a few high-level spell cards containing corresponding attribute energy.
And it can also easily absorb Baal's divine power as a supplement.
Thanks to the ninth level of Baator Hell, a rear base that can continuously provide huge energy, both the level of the planeswalker and the quality of the cards in hand are improved very quickly.
This is also the reason why he cooperates so much with Asmodeus to continuously carry out business in other worlds and harvest souls crazily.
Although every time a soul is harvested, a tax must be paid to the Lord of Hell, Zuo Si himself can also get a considerable share from it to improve himself.
In addition to the planeswalker level up to LV25, there is also a mage professional level with a total of LV38, a natural spellcasting level similar to a warlock at LV37, and a priest professional level of LV32.
Including LV6 mage, LV10 mystic, LV5 archmage, LV7 iridescent apprentice, LV10 arcane king, LV22 priest level...
Among them, the improvement of arcane spellcasting level, especially the legendary profession of King of Arcane, mainly comes from the rewards of reading Netherese scrolls.
The sorcerer's spellcasting level is derived from the natural spellcasting abilities of the dragon and the archdevil.
As for the priest level, Talona would secretly add a little bit every time her divine power was greatly improved, and over time it became what it is now.
In addition, Zuo Si also has a warrior professional level obtained by practicing swordsmanship, as well as additional melee expertise brought by the great devil and dragon.
Now he has no so-called "weaknesses" at all and belongs to a standard hexagon.
It's just that this hexagon is not very standard, but a little bit weird.
Feeling the revitalized earth around him, as well as the Baal's divine power that he had absorbed and was transforming, Zuo Si nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad! It seems that with my current level, even if I don't use divine power and other trump cards,
Planeswalkers’ control of energy alone should be able to defeat demigods and weaker powers.”
