Abyssal Distortion Files

"To increase my level, I forcibly absorbed the souls of the dead, which led to a large amount of memory mixing into my mind. That's basically it," Zhou Mo said with a depressed look.

Chen Ye almost laughed when he saw this, but in order to maintain the image of the Prophet, he resisted the urge to laugh.

This was too interesting.

He was clearly unwilling, but he still told the truth.

No need to think, it must be because of Qi Youluo.

Chen Ye was watching the fun, but Li Yang's focus was different. "Devouring souls... Your mental strength is indeed very strong now."

"But your physical body is still at the mortal level?"

Zhou Mo turned his head and stopped looking at Li Yang. "The physical body is useless to me. It's enough as long as the soul is strong."

「Speak human language」

"Because physical cultivation is too slow, I wanted to take a shortcut, so I forcibly refined the souls of the dead to improve my soul realm, and then almost lost control. That's basically it."

Pfft...

Zhou Mo turned his head abruptly. Did he just hear someone laughing?

Was it an illusion?

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Chen Ye tried to bring the topic back, reiterating that it wasn't him who laughed just now, but Gui Su who was hiding outside.

This guy had been eavesdropping for a long time.

"Besides the Five Elders Council, the most important thing right now is how to deal with the Ancestral Serpent."

"It's a ticking time bomb. It could explode any day."

"After its efforts this month, everyone in the world knows that there are monsters in Asia. The situation has reached a point where it's impossible to block the information."

"Various countries have held emergency meetings."

"And I happen to have intercepted the entire content of this meeting."

"They admitted that there are monsters in the world, and they have formulated a plan to deal with the Ancestral Serpent."

"They know that the Ancestral Serpent feeds on metal, so they plan to collect a large amount of metal and alloys in a certain place, and bury enough explosives underground, waiting for the Ancestral Serpent to take the bait."

"If there are enough explosives, or if they can decide to use nuclear weapons, it is indeed not difficult to kill the Ancestral Serpent."

"But the problem is, the Ancestral Serpent is not a wild beast."

"It has considerable intelligence, and ordinary traps can't deceive it."

"At the same time, at this meeting, someone proposed the 'Savior Foundation' plan, intending to establish an international organization specifically for abnormal monsters."

The Prophet really knows everything.

Li Yang looked at Chen Ye, constantly guessing in his heart what the Prophet's ability was. Was it really as he said?

Not necessarily.

The second time he met the Prophet, the ability the Prophet showed was flesh and blood tentacles, and the other black-clothed people also had this ability.

Could it be...

The Prophet's ability is clones?

No!

Wait...

Was that their second meeting?

"Second meeting?"

That's right, the first meeting was that day, that day the Prophet was at...

Li Yang didn't know what he thought of, and his pupils shrank suddenly for a moment. "How could I have forgotten such an important thing?"

"The Prophet summoned the Yellow Spring Serpent, why is that?"

Could it be...

All of this is the Prophet's conspiracy?

He is the culprit for the evolution of the Ancestral Serpent?

Li Yang looked at Chen Ye, he only felt that the Prophet at this moment was particularly strange, as if the face behind the mask was no longer a human face, but a monster's face!

File No. 1 Derivative: Prophet

Prophet, monster, human?

What exactly is it?

Which is the real him, or are these all disguises?

It was Chen Ye who guided him to become a Mithras, and so was Zhou Mo. They all became Mithras under Chen Ye's guidance.

You say all this wasn't planned by Chen Ye, is that reasonable?

Obviously, it's not reasonable!

The Prophet is definitely planning something!

Noticing the strangeness in Li Yang's eyes, Chen Ye slowly turned his head. "Your thoughts are very active."

Li Yang's eyes narrowed. "I'm just wondering, what exactly is the Prophet's ability?"

"My ability is not complicated, it can even be said to be very simple."

Chen Ye said, opening his right hand, and a crack suddenly appeared in his palm, and a bloody eye opened from the crack.

"Maybe you will think that I, like your Sect Master, was born a monster."

"But the truth is, all mysteries were once human..."

"So am I."

"The mystery that initially signed a contract with me is called the Eye of Truth. It is the source of my ability and the foundation of the church."

"The Eye of Truth allows me to see the future, know the past, understand all the evils in the world, and maintain the order of the balance."

"This is my ability."

「Master, Li Yang is suspecting you」

「Do you want to erase his memory...?」

"I'm not blind, of course I know he suspects me."

Chen Ye's eyes behind the mask peered into Li Yang's soul. Under the All-Seeing Eye, all secrets are hidden.

His thoughts and ideas have already been reflected in his soul.

"I will not stop his speculation, let alone distort his thoughts, because I really want to see what he will do."

「What if he wants to kill you, or even overthrow you?」

"That would be great."

"Please let the plot develop in this direction. I don't particularly want to be the Prophet anyway. Of course, the most important thing is that this story suits my taste!"

"Just thinking about him hacking me to death makes me tremble with excitement!"

「Is this... is this right?」

At this time, Gui Su, who was hiding outside watching the show, couldn't help but interject, "That's why you're the main body!"

"The boss still knows how to play!"

"Boss, we can't wait to see this demon-slaying script!"

The corners of Chen Ye's mouth behind the mask rose. "You just have to firmly believe that everything we do is for justice and order."

"This world needs us to maintain it."

Li Yang wasn't a fool, he could tell at a glance that Chen Ye was changing the subject.

He didn't mention a word about those flesh and blood tentacles.

Li Yang didn't ask any further questions, but buried these things in his heart. It didn't matter whether the Prophet was the mastermind or not.

What mattered was that he now knew too little information and intelligence, but the Prophet gave him a chance.

A chance to build his own faction within the church.

If the Ancestral Serpent was really created by the Prophet, then he must have even bigger plans. Let's see how it goes.

Li Yang nodded. "Everyone understands the situation. Let's think of a plan first."

Patience is the only way to succeed.

This was what his master, who taught him swordsmanship when he was a child, told him, "There is nothing difficult in the world for those who put their heart into it, but everything is inseparable from a persistent word of patience."

"If you can endure humiliation and withstand loneliness, even if the enemy is in front of you, you must never be swayed by hatred."

"A truly strong person is not about how old he is, nor about how high his skills are, but about his control over himself."

"No matter when, you must maintain absolute rationality, act after deliberation, and decide after thinking, then you can become a strong person."
