Upon witnessing another swift gleam of icy light, the arm was effortlessly sliced open as though it were paper, and a putrid black liquid spurted out from the severed limb.

Patheia’s face hardened, her sword shining as she swung it once more, severing the creature’s legs and causing it to transform into a human-like pig before collapsing onto the deck.

However, Vida seemed to feel no pain at all, grinning wickedly, “You will all die! Your souls will be imprisoned by the great Darius, tortured by hellfire for ten thousand years!!

This world is rotten to the core. Those orderly divine beings have no ability to resist the malice from the void. Only demons, and only they, are the true saviors who can save this crumbling plane!”

Ji Chen looked at Vida, who seemed to be ranting like a madman, and couldn’t help but furrow his brow.

“A crumbling plane?”

Vida coughed up a mouthful of black blood, a maniacal smile on his face. “You want to know? I won’t tell you, you lowly Lord of Glory! Hahaha!”

Anina and the others couldn’t help but show a hint of anger. It was more unbearable for them to see their loyal lord insulted than to be killed.

Ji Chen, on the other hand, remained emotionless, simply raising his hand casually. “Alice, open up his mind and see what he knows.”

Alice who was behind Ji Chen nodded and walked over, extending her fair and slender arm.

Vida, seeing the hand reaching out to him, suddenly felt a wave of panic. “What are you trying to do!?”

Ten minutes later.

Alice slowly pulled back her hand and opened her eyes. Meanwhile, Vida was already unconscious, with his eyes rolled back and foaming at the mouth.

Alice returned to Ji Chen’s side and spoke in a gentle and melodious voice.

“His name is Vida Barros. He was once a nobleman of the kingdom of Hoiyland in the Eastern Continent… He voluntarily sided with the Void Lord Darius for longer life, power, and other purposes… The reason he is on this ship is because Darius sent him to monitor the Holy Light Sect.

In addition, I also found out an important thing in his memory…” At this point, there was a solemn expression on Alice’s face.

As Alice revealed it, the other heroes of the Ocean Crown couldn’t help but be surprised.

“The Light Church, including the Holy Light Sect, has had three of its sects secretly corrupted by the Void Lord Darius. The Holy Light Sect was sent to attack the Ocean Crown, while the other two sects, the Fervent Flame Sect and the Sun-Chasing Sect, are now secretly advancing toward the Markus Empire, intending to launch a surprise attack when they least expect it.”

Well, isn’t that just great.

When Ji Chen heard this, he couldn’t help but secretly cursed.

The Light Church has a total of six sects, and three of them have been corrupted by the demon lord. No, it should be considered two and a half, after all, only the bishop of the Holy Light Sect betrayed them, and the rest of its followers are still devout.

However, this was already quite astonishing.

The Light Church, which worshiped the Goddess of Light, was once one of the greatest enemies of demons tens of thousands of years ago. It had killed countless demons, but now it had been corrupted into the minions of demons. How incredible was this?

Now that the fleets of the Holy Light Sect had been destroyed by Ji Chen, and the Fervent Flame Sect and Sun-Chasing Sect had already thrown themselves into the arms of demons, the Light Church was left with only three sects, greatly weakening its strength.

Fortunately, these three sects of the Light Church were the last three in terms of strength, while the top three sects were still intact, which was also considered good news.

However, the urgent matter now was to notify the Markus Empire. Otherwise, with the attacks from the sects of two kingdom-level powers, the few remaining empire-level forces of humanity would inevitably suffer losses.

Especially in such a situation where they were always ready to fight demons, it was necessary to preserve the forces of the orderly side as much as possible.

With this in mind, Ji Chen did not hesitate.

“Patheia, take a team of ten Sea Crystal Wyrms and immediately head to the Markus Empire to remind them to be vigilant against the Fervent Flame Sect and Sun-Chasing Sect.”

Patheia saluted and took the command, immediately flapping her wings and taking off with a team of ten Sea Crystal Wyrms toward the northeast.

“My lord, what about these believers?” Herald asked in a low voice.

Ji Chen looked at the Holy Light Sect believers lying limp on the deck, their eyes devoid of spirit, and pondered for a moment.

“Detain them for now. We’ll decide what to do with them after we make contact with the Light Church.”

The interception battle ended in a complete victory for the Ocean Crown, with a completely one-sided combat situation proving the formidable power of the Ocean Crown.

The Holy Light Sect was definitely not weak. The average strength of those believers reached Tier 5 High-Star, and the fanatics among them even reached Tier 6 level. However, they encountered the Ocean Crown.

Against the powerful Tier 6 flying units of the Ocean Crown, even the prestigious powers like the Holy Light Sect in the Eastern Continent would find it difficult to match.

Especially in terms of high-end combat power, the Ocean Crown was unparalleled, completely overwhelming the priests and deacons of the Holy Light Sect, to the extent that even the Kraken did not need to intervene.

Ji Chen and his group returned to the New Moon Islands with a large number of captured believers and dozens of surviving warships of the Holy Light Sect, marching in a grand procession. The merchants watched in astonishment as one believer after another was escorted off the ships, lined up, and driven towards the prison.

Everyone with discerning eyes knew that these believers were the reason behind the deployment of so many Ocean Crown troops.

“So many troops were mobilized just for these believers?” exclaimed a merchant from the Eastern Continent.

“These are the followers of the Holy Light Sect!”

“But why would the Holy Light Sect attack here?”

“Who knows…”

These people were full of doubts, not understanding why the Holy Light Sect from the distant Eastern Continent would come all the way here.

But soon, a piece of news from the Ocean Crown City Hall shocked them.

– The Fervent Flame Sect and the Sun-Chasing Sect have already joined forces with the demons, and the Bishop of the Holy Light Sect, Plas, has defected to the Void Demon, King Darius, and has been slain.

This news quickly spread along the trade routes to various factions and then circulated among the player community through chat channels.

All factions were shocked.

Two sects of the Light Church had already joined the demons, and now they were secretly heading to the Markus Empire, intending to launch an attack?

The Holy Light Sect’s fleet attempted to attack the Ocean Crown but faced retaliation, ultimately resulting in the death of Bishop Plas and the capture of numerous believers?

This development marked another significant event following the Elven Empire’s warning of an imminent demon invasion in the Northern Continent.

It was also the initial revelation of a formidable, previously loyal force aligning with the demons, with the Light Church being a notable entity in this regard.

The world was shaken by such news.

This news immediately caught the attention of the top three sects of the Light Church and the Markus Empire.

Initially, they didn’t believe such news, but seeing the overwhelming public opinion, they couldn’t help but send some people to investigate. However, the outcome of this investigation was astonishing.

Only one-third of the Holy Light Sect’s stronghold remained, with the remaining two-thirds of their forces and over a hundred warships nowhere to be found. As for the strongholds of the Fervent Flame Sect and the Sun-Chasing Sect, they were completely deserted, with only signs indicating that they seemed to have headed north.

The Markus Empire’s initial reaction was similar to that of the top three sects of the Light Church, but upon hearing that this news came from the epic-tier powerhouse Ji Chen, they immediately dispatched people to investigate.

The status of being an epic-tier figure itself carried immense credibility, enough to warrant their attention.

This investigation made them break out in a cold sweat. The armies of the Fervent Flame Sect and the Sun-Chasing Sect were less than three hundred miles from the border. If these two armies were to rush in without any border defenses while the empire was fully mobilized to prepare for the demon invasion, it would undoubtedly deal a severe blow, putting them in a precarious situation against the demon invasion.

Although the distance was not far, it was enough for the Markus Empire to react swiftly. They promptly sent out elite troops to join forces with neighboring vassal states to eliminate the sect armies.

An unintentional espionage operation once again changed the world order, thwarting the demons’ plot once more.

The name of Ji Chen once again resounded throughout the continent.
