The Purgatory Calamity
Chapter 792 - 754 - Mo Tian! Pang Jian!

Chapter 792: 754 Chapter Mo Tian! Pang Jian!

Mou Qi left in a fury.

"Lord He Motian, you?" the Sun God exclaimed, not knowing what to do.

He Motian, with his three heads and six arms, stood tall in the center of the Moon Temple with his demon body gathered inwards after expansion.

Each of his faces had become ferocious and terrifying, causing onlookers to recoil in fear.

His breath grew ragged as well, exhaling demon fire from his mouth and nostrils, his state appearing extremely unstable.

"Get out!"

He Motian glared at the Sun God.

Sensing something was amiss, the Sun God, as if granted a reprieve, transformed into a beam of sunlight and flew out of the temple.

"He Motian, what exactly are you doing? Was it necessary to offend Mou Qi for the sake of Han Yi?" Zimo was dumbfounded, feeling utterly perplexed.

He had known this Great Demon God for a long time and knew He Motian was not the reckless type, but what He Motian had just done was clearly a foolish act.

"Zimo, you leave first. Let me have a few words alone with Han Yi and Ying Yue."

Two of He Motian’s faces struggled to close their eyes.

With his last remaining face, he pointed outside the hall and said between gasps, "Zimo, keep an eye on Mou Qi for me."

"Okay!"

Zimo left gracefully.

Though he was unclear about the reason behind this, his relationship with He Motian was still beyond that with Mou Qi. He trusted that He Motian would eventually provide him with a reasonable explanation.

Inside the Divine Temple, from which the three godly beings had departed,

He Motian sat down with a thunderous noise, his six arms crossed over his chest, constantly changing, forming various complex Demon Tao hand seals.

His vast demon thoughts and demon soul were present in several other beings across the Demonic Realm Worlds, gathering more power originating from himself, to combat the will within him that did not belong to him.

"Lord Demon Sky."

"Lord Demon Sky."

"Lord Demon Sky."

Each He, in different Demonic Realm Worlds, was returning the same echoing demon sound heartfelt voices.

He Motian’s head throbbed with pain, and the seals he formed with his hands also slackened.

He was forced to hold his forehead, as well as his temples, struggling to keep himself upright.

In the same temple, Han Yi watched He Motian in this state, bewildered by what was happening.

She had no connections with He Motian, of which she was absolutely certain.

But why?

Why would the nominal leader of the Outer Realm Sky Demon Race go so far as to offend Mou Qi for her sake, and with such firmness?

Han Yi couldn’t understand.

"Han Yi, when did you get to know him?" Ying Yue asked with an odd look in her eyes, reproachfully, "We’re like sisters, yet you’ve kept me in the dark! With He Motian backing you up, Mou Qi’s issues could have been easily resolved. Why would you still wallow in self-pity every day?"

She assumed that just as the Sun God had been persistently pursuing her, He Motian also favored Han Yi.

"What nonsense are you spouting? I’ve only met him twice, and one of those times was in this Star River!" Han Yi protested her innocence, saying, "Before today, I hadn’t even spoken to him!"

"Then why would he help you?" Ying Yue was utterly puzzled.

"How would I know?"

The two goddesses discussed animatedly within the temple.

Meanwhile, inside He Motian’s body, a soul battle was erupting, enduring the torment of another thought consciousness attempting to invade and corrupt him, much like he had once spread his will to corrupt the believers in Purgatory under the starry sky of the Outer Realm.

So it went on, for an indeterminate length of time.

All of a sudden, on He Motian’s three faces, six eyes flew open simultaneously, and countless demon souls within the Moon Temple began to howl and roar.

"My loyalty lies with the Mo Tian Overlord."

"My loyalty lies with Lord Pang Jian!"

"I am loyal to Mo Tian! I am loyal to Pang Jian!"

"Mo Tian! Pang Jian!"

His mouth was howling, his demon soul was howling.

The thoughts in his heart were of Mo Tian, but the words that came out of his mouth were of Pang Jian.

The two names, Mo Tian and Pang Jian, seemed to blur together in the end, to the point where he could no longer distinguish them.

"This..."

Ying Yue and Han Yi looked at each other, baffled.

No matter how hard they racked their brains, they couldn’t fathom what strange occurrence had taken place behind the scenes. How had the great leader of the Outer Realm Sky Demon Race come to mix up Mo Tian and Pang Jian?

After a while, Lord He Motian seemed to finally regain his composure and said in a deep voice, "Han Yi, the Overlord of Mo Tian is in the resurrection phase, he is the one who commanded me to protect you."

Before the two women could speak, he added, "Lately, you two try not to leave this place. As long as you are within the range of my senses, if Mou Qi dares to cause trouble, I can intervene at any time!"

With that said, the Great Demon God, whose demon soul had been tainted, also left the Moon Temple.

"Does he himself know that he kept mentioning Pang Jian’s name just now?" wondered Han Yi blankly.

Ying Yue was also perplexed and said, "He seems to be confused about the identities of the Overlord of Mo Tian and Pang Jian. One’s body fell in the Netherworld Prison, the other has yet to leave Purgatory, how could he have tied Pang Jian and Mo Tian together?"

"Not sure," said Han Yi, shaking her head. After thinking for a long time, her eyes suddenly lit up as she said, "Ying Yue, do you think there’s a chance that Pang Jian is using his power to warp He Motian’s will in an attempt to control him?"

Ying Yue’s mouth dropped open as she exclaimed, "That’s quite a bold idea!"

"But what if it’s true?" Han Yi became hopeful again and said, "Look, when I was most powerless, the name of Pang Jian appeared time and again."

"Mou Qi, now, should not dare to come close to the moon, to avoid immediate conflict with He Motian."

"I truly believe it’s Pang Jian helping me from the shadows!"

The Goddess of Cold Crystal’s face was radiant with a mysterious glow.

...

In the Fifth Realm, the nameless Fragment Land.

Wrapped in a Demonic Robe, Pang Jian’s eyes were somewhat languid, and beads of sweat emerged on his forehead and neck.

Through the robe on his body, and with the help of Ming Yu Soul Sea, he had successfully manipulated He Motian’s will.

He also left a mark deep within He Motian’s Demon Soul.

The presence of this mark convinced He Motian that the owner of the Demonic Robe—the Overlord of Mo Tian—was also awakening in Purgatory and had left his trace within the mark.

But even with the help of the Demonic Robe, and the true name of He Motian in his hand, he had nearly been backlashed by He Motian’s will.

——If not for that stretch of Ming Yu Soul Sea.

Because he maintained a connection with the Soul Sea, he could keep his soul clear forever, and no matter what Demon Tao Sorcery He Motian employed, his true heart remained unmoved.

That was the key!

And it was through this secret Soul Battle that he realized something.

If his understanding of the Secret Skill of the Spiritual Soul could reach a higher dimension, he could, through this Demonic Robe, through the True Name of the Demon God upon it, make the Demon God completely submit to him!

He Motian, Fahua, Luan Ji, and the other noon-time Demon Gods could all be at his command!

"Pang Jian, I have merged with another self."

In one of the twenty-six worlds of the Demonic Realm, where the Source Demon resided, He whispered into the void, "Will you continue to help me, to successfully take down the remaining few?"

In this Demonic Realm, the handsome Demon Body of the Source Demon revealed a demon shadow on the ground behind him.

The demon shadow grew larger and its presence became quite formidable.

The gaunt Demon Gods, as well as the Demon Lanterns with their Demon Souls and Demon Thoughts inside, had been absorbed by the Black Gold Demon Sword in the hands of the Source Demon.

"The world is undergoing vast changes, you need to accelerate your pace. I am helping you now, with the hope that you’ll help me in the future," Pang Jian responded with a smile.

"Of course!" said the Source Demon.
