C3255 The Secret of the Templar and the Purgatory
C3255 The Secret of the Templar and the Purgatory
A world of fire and lava. This was the lair of Marcus. As the number one Great Devil in the sixth purgatory, there was still a lot of distance between him and the Great Lord of Lava. However, now that he had become the subordinate of Gu Huang, Marcus had already hugged a golden thigh.
"Principal Superior, you are back!"
"Have you really... really reached the thirteenth purgatory?"
Marcus knew that the thirteenth purgatory was a group of terrifying existences beyond his imagination. It was definitely not something a Great Devil like him could imagine. Only a person like the Principal Superior could penetrate the thirteenth purgatory with one foot and directly descend to the bottom of the purgatory. It was enough to show how terrifying the purgatory was.
"I've gone, and I have fought!"
"The matter has been resolved. From now on, you are the ruler of the sixth purgatory."
"As my subordinate, my combat strength is a little weak. It's really embarrassing for me."
"Go, this is a profession and profound mystery of the soul. As long as you focus on comprehending it, it won't be a problem for you to advance to the other side."
"Under the thirteenth purgatory, there is no need to worry about protecting myself."
Gu Huang pointed at the center of Marcus' forehead and passed on the various profound mysteries of the soul. One had to know that the soul was the most suitable for devils. Being able to become the Master of the Other Shore was enough to protect himself.
"Thank you, Principal Superior!"
"Marcus is willing to die for you."
Marcus immediately kowtowed. The shock in his heart was obvious. The Principal Superior had personally passed on the soul system, but he could always become the Master of the Other Shore.
In the past, that was something Marcus didn't even dare to think about.
It was enough to prove that the Principal Superior cared a lot about him.
"Get up!"
"Tell me! Three Gods of the Holy Church died, but they still want to take you on as the scapegoat."
"Your Purgatory is very strong, so why can't you stop the Holy Church?"
"Three Gods of the Holy Church died, that was killed by evil creatures. What does it have to do with you?"
Gu Huang's eyes were filled with a bit of coldness, as if he was an evil lord from ancient times. He didn't kill in the Thirteen Great Purgatories, not only because of the existence of the Echelon Apostles, but also because Purgatory seemed to be suppressed by the Holy Church.
This was very interesting. Purgatory had thirteen supreme existences.
Although Marcus was a minor devil that was insignificant, he was suppressed by the Holy Church's Gods with the personality of a devil.
It was already incredible.
Could it be that the Holy Church was stronger than Purgatory?
"Principal Superior, I'm afraid it's really as you said, the Holy Church is stronger than Purgatory."
"Not only is it stronger than Purgatory, it's even much stronger."
"The Holy Church has a natural suppression on Purgatory. In the past, the Holy Church and Purgatory had a battle that lasted nearly a hundred thousand years in the Dark Continent."
"In the end, it ended with Purgatory's complete defeat. From then on, Purgatory and the Holy Church signed an agreement, which was that the Holy Church controlled the human world, and Purgatory was not allowed to descend."
"The war that resulted from it was projected in various dimensions and timelines. Both sides had victories and defeats, but overall, the Holy Church was stronger."
"Right now, the Holy Church and Inferno have temporarily cooperated. The demons of Inferno can all descend into the human world, but they are limited to fighting against the Destroyer and the unknown evil."
"Three Gods have fallen in one fell swoop. This is undoubtedly a heavy slap to the Holy Church. The Holy Church doesn't dare to find trouble with the unknown evil, so they can only vent their anger on Inferno."
"As for me, I naturally became a scapegoat. We demons are not good people, but the Holy Church is a hundred times more hypocritical than us."
Marcus began to retort. He was dissatisfied with the Holy Church, but he had no choice. He was not strong enough. If he was strong enough, things would not have happened like this. Fortunately, he had the Principal Superior.
"So that's how it is!"
"The Inferno has been defeated by the Holy Church. This is an unchangeable fact in every timeline."
"You just said that the war between the Holy Church and Inferno has lasted for 100,000 years."
"Then where is this Dark Continent?"
Gu Huang knew that there were many secrets buried in this universe. Any place that seemed insignificant might be hiding a deeper secret.
"It's gone!"
"I heard that both sides have invested a lot of strength in the war. The entire world has been destroyed."
"The Holy Church and Inferno said so, but I don't believe their lies."
"You don't know! Every year, the Holy Church and Inferno have some Gods and Devils with extraordinary potential that disappear. Some of them never return, but some return."
"For example, the Devil Lord next door has disappeared for three hundred years. When he came back, he had already become an Eighteen Stage Devil Lord."
"He was directly taken away by the Ninth Stage Infernal Realm expert. And I have also secretly investigated. The place they went to is very likely to be the Dark Continent."
"However, the Dark Continent is sealed by the Holy Church and Infernal Realm. We don't know where exactly it is."
"Principal Superior, if you want to know about the Dark Continent, I can bring you to see someone. Maybe that person knows where the Dark Continent is."
Marcus already knew the true face of Infernal Realm. Now, he wished he could dig out the root of Infernal Realm. The Holy Church and Infernal Realm had been fighting for a hundred thousand years. It would be a joke if they said there were no secrets in the Dark Continent.
"Okay, Marcus, lead the way!"
Gu Huang had nothing to do anyway. Now, whether it was the Devil or the evil thing, they had already had a preliminary contact. The Holy Church and Infernal Realm were able to survive in the environment where the Devil, Evil, and the Echelon Apostles were all around, and they were living quite well. It was enough for the Holy Church and Infernal Realm to hide some big secrets.
"Principal Superior, please!"
Marcus turned into a red-haired strong man in a black suit and walked out of his territory. He descended onto a huge wasteland.
The scarlet red, dry and cracked ground almost no living creatures could survive. However, a huge city appeared in the distance. The main color was red.
One man and one demon entered the city. There were countless Purgatory races in sight, and all of them were in human form. There were all kinds of races.
They wandered around the city for about an hour. Marcus brought Gu Huang to a unique clock tower. It was old and simple, and few people visited it.
In front of the old clock tower sat a hunchbacked old man in a gray robe. He was holding a bottle of wine and sleeping soundly.
"Old man, I'm here to see you."
Marcus stepped forward. His eyes were filled with disrespect. He immediately took out a bottle of wine that was almost emitting red flames. He opened the cork and placed it under the old man's nose.
"Come on!"
"It's you, little demon!"
"Marcus, you still know to come and see me!"
The old man took the bottle of wine and gulped it down. In just a few gulps, half the bottle was gone.
"Old man, am I not here?"
"I'm here to ask you about something."
"How is it? Is the wine enough?"
Marcus took out a few more bottles of wine and placed them in front of the old man. He was very sincere in asking for guidance.
"Little demon, this is not enough."
"This person beside you is not an ordinary person. The things he wants to know can be called secrets."
"Am I right, sir?"
The old man half-closed his eyes and looked at Gu Huang. He looked relaxed on the surface, but he was already extremely shocked...
