In a state of extreme concentration, Xia Duo quickly entered the perspective of the soul, and a large number of invisible forces that could not be perceived were constantly hitting the soul itself.

But the touch of the soul was completely different from the body, and Xia Duo did not feel the slightest pain from this impact on the soul, not even at all.

He could be sure that such an impact would not be harmful to him, or even good.

At the same time, the circle of misty light inspired by the invisible force striking the soul reflected a small space around the soul.

Xia Duo meditates every day, but he doesn't reach deep into the soul every day, and the last time he sensed the soul was nearly half a month ago.

Now that he senses his soul again, Xia Duo immediately discovers a completely different scene from the last time he perceived it!

The small space around the soul was originally empty, and only occasionally there were some strange figures suspected of being reincarnated souls, and the image of the color-resistant village in the boundless wilderness of the outer plane flashed by.

Since the last Bloodline Awakening, images of color-resistant villages in the boundless wilderness of the outer planes have become more frequent and more stable.

At the same time, Xia Duo has the ability of his soul to travel to the outer planes! And the place where the soul arrives in the outer plane is near the color-resistant village!

And now, in this small space around the soul, there are some patterns that are very similar to the mysterious patterns left behind by the monsters in the arena after they die.

The motifs were glowing grayish-black as Xia Duo had just seen when he was reminiscing about his memories, and occasionally some of the images were fleeting.

It is not a vast wilderness, with no sun but still light, vegetation, life, and cultivable areas, but a swamp full of gloomy atmosphere.

Sludge, decay, and strange bubbles that popped up in the swamp from time to time, and even more, Xia Duo also saw some vines with strange tumors growing in this picture, constantly twisting and surging.

Just seeing this picture, Xia Duo felt a chill in his heart.

For some reason, he had a strong premonition that if he used the bloodline ability to go to the outer plane at this time, he would have a high probability of appearing in that strange swamp.

The moment this thought was born, he was shocked out of a state of extreme concentration, and his mood could not be calm for a long time.

……

After sitting in the room for a moment, Xia Duo gradually cleared his mind, and he knew that the monster he had just seen in the arena was more than just an ordinary summon!

Ordinary summons will never leave behind such strange patterns after death, and they will not have anything to do with the outer planes.

Shado suspected that if the caster delved into the patterns, they might be able to summon that kind of monster, and they wouldn't have to do so with a self-detonation like the Drow Assassins.

What kind of monster is this?

Xia Duo actually had a guess in his heart, and after asking Iolem, his guess was confirmed, that kind of monster was a demon as expected!

Then the picture he saw in the small space around his soul, if nothing else, should be some corner of the abyss!

"In this world, why did you suddenly fast forward to fighting demons?"

In Iolem's reply, there is not only information about the origin of the kind of monster that appeared in the arena, but also some news from the underworld.

According to him, after the birth of the new god, Drow had already begun to conquer the underworld under the direction of the new god, and in the process, summoning demons played a crucial role!

In the future, if Drow attacks the surface, he may repeat this maneuver.

Thinking of the scene of demons running all over the surface of the main plane, Xia Duo couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

However, the immediate priority is to first remove the demonic aura contaminated in the arena, and Iolem specifically mentioned in his reply that the demon will form a curse-like aura infection after death, and if it is not removed in time, it will lead to some bad results.

Iolam didn't mention the exact outcome, but Shado guessed that it might attract the demon's gaze and provoke the demon to descend in some future action, similar to how he took the initiative to descend on the outer plane.

As for how to clear the demonic aura, it is very simple, just ask the priest to bless it with holy power, no matter what kind of holy power it is.

And in Severton, there's actually something simpler.

……

After thanking Iolem in return, Shado hurriedly called Nia out and headed for the Grand Temple of the Lord of Light in the eastern part of the new town of Severington.

On the way, Xia Duo explained some basic information about the demon to her, to which Nia was puzzled: "Isn't the demon already dead?" What can the afterlife do to us? ”

"I don't know, Lord Iolem didn't say it, but I don't think it's okay to go, at least ask for peace of mind!"

That being said, Xia Duo was still a little apprehensive in his heart, especially the mysterious pattern in the small space around the soul, as well as the picture of a swamp somewhere in the abyss, and he didn't know if he could clear it together.

……

When I arrived in the Eastern District, the majestic Great Temple was like a giant with a magnificent body, approaching step by step.

Speaking of which, Shadort had been to Severynton quite a few times, but this was the first time he had returned to the Grand Temple, and most of the time before he had looked at its pure golden spire from afar.

The closest thing I got was to go to the Arcane Temple under the Grand Temple to attend a magic exchange.

Of course, it was also on that occasion that he and Nia were there, and together with many spellcasters, including Randall's Grand Arcanist, they witnessed the birth of an immortal.

Now approaching the Great Temple a little bit from the ground, Xia Duo originally thought that such a tall and majestic building that was not inferior to the Seven Towers would at least bring a sense of oppression to people.

But in fact, no.

On the way from the Plaza de Offa to the Grand Temple, Xia Duo only felt a warm aura like the rising sun growing stronger.

By the time we reached the plaza in front of the Grand Temple, the warmth had become substantial, and in the magical vision, the plaza was full of brilliance.

Almost endless divine power flowed from the top of the Grand Temple, like a stream of water, and when it reached the outer edge of the square, it became thin as mist and continued to rise.

In a bizarre form, a special field was formed in the square and even in a large space with the main temple as the core.

When people come here, as long as they don't resist, they are equivalent to receiving the blessing of holy power!

Of course, compared to the active blessing of the official priest, the effect of this passive blessing by environmental radiation is actually not ideal, and the consumption of holy power is not large.

Otherwise, the square is not closed, and people come and go, wouldn't it be easy to make ends meet!

But even with this level of faint blessing, Xia Duo felt a sense of relief, and the slight unhappiness caused by that mysterious pattern quickly vanished.
