Chapter 761: Chapter 402: The Summoning Ritual of the Sun God and the Knowledge Demon King_2

Furthermore, she could see the decaying eyes of the demon trapped inside the Iron Maiden.

It was as if the demon within the Iron Maiden was simply a lifeless corpse.

A voice came from within the Iron Maiden. "If you open the Iron Maiden for me, I can grant you any wish you want. Be it anything, even the Reaper’s Aura inside your soul’s core, I can cleanse it for you in an instant."

"Nobody can threaten you in my presence. That lad rejected me because he is naive. But you, you are not so ignorant."

"You and I are the same. You have been resurrected from death and are no longer tied to any demon’s pact. So, be my companion."

The Sect Hierarch of the Sun God Sect shook her head repeatedly. Her forehead was covered with sweat. The beguiling language of the demon sapped her of strength, piercing through her palms and ears, embedding itself in her brain.

She quickly discovered that even the Reaper’s Aura within her soul’s core had disappeared.

Could it be that the entity inside the Iron Maiden was speaking the truth?

Upon thinking that, the Light Soul she had painstakingly recovered was instantly contaminated by the Power of Demon, even showing signs of conversion into a demon.

"Wake up~," Ivita said. "Really now, your Light Soul is too weak. If I didn’t stop you, you’d already be dead. You actually believed the words of a demon."

The Hierarch of the Sun God Sect jolted awake, only to be horrified to discover that she had gone to the Iron Maiden of her own accord and was even pressing her forehead against it. Her forehead was already scraped by the Iron Maiden.

Blood dripped from her forehead

Falling to the ground.

It was only then that she realized how close she had just come to death. If not for Ivita’s timely warning, she would already be dead.

That demon was merely beguiling her. Those propositions about making a pact with her and forming an alliance were all lies.

The Hierarch of the Sun God Sect gratefully glanced at Ivita.

The demon within the Iron Maiden angrily said to Ivita, "I am in an disadvantageous position, trapped within this decrepit mummy. Let me possess her body, then I can help you."

"It’s truly absurd. Why save such a weak witch."

The demon within the Iron Maiden lost all contempt for Ivita.

Ivita’s Light Soul was too powerful, like the sun in the sky, it was nearly impossible for it to beguile Ivita.

The essence of beguiling was to seize an uncontrolled emotion.

Unfortunately, it could not use this against Ivita’s Light Soul.

It attempted to confront the strongest attribute of the Light Soul directly. It risked almost as much loss as gain in this pursuit, and could only use this method against the weaker opponents.

All it did was to take advantage of the weak Light Soul of the Hierarch of the Sun God Sect.

Ivita explained to the demon within the Iron Maiden, "I trust humans more than demons. Secondly, what I need in this country is not a powerful demon, but an army."

"If you were to possess her, she would turn into a demon. Her height and size would increase more than twice, her spirit would undergo extreme distortion, filled with the fires of hell. How then would I get her to help me govern the Sun God Sect and command the army for me?"

The demon inside the Iron Maiden said nothing.

Because it was clear that Ivita needed an army which was more reliable than having an unpredictable yet powerful demon.

The Hierarch of the Sun God Sect continuously looked at Ivita.

She breathed a sigh of relief, which confirmed that she would not be in mortal danger, at least for now.

Moreover, it’s amusing to think that she found a sense of righteousness in Ivita, so she unconsciously took Ivita’s orders.

Ivita continued to sweep her gaze over the books on the steel bookshelf in front of her. This section of books was obviously fewer, only about a thousand or so.

It took Ivita half an hour to find five books related to Dark Soul. However, there were no direct methods to create Dark Souls, just some knowledge related to Dark Souls.

Ivita looked at the five books in her hand and began to think. ’That’s right. The Witch Queen and the Witch Kings appeared at the end of the Ancient Civilization Period. During the Ancient Civilization Period, Dark Soul was high-level magic knowledge, and there aren’t comprehensive books on creating the Soul of Darkness here.’

’This is normal.’

’I probably need to go to the libraries of the Witch Kings and the Witch Queen to find textbooks on the Soul of Darkness.’

"But simply examining these five books, would greatly benefit me. I might even deduce the method of creating the Soul of Darkness from them. It’s not really practical to read here, time hasn’t stopped on the third level."

"I could first take the books out of the library and read them slowly on my way. This library is not safe, who knows, it might be burned down by someone any day."

"I’ll just take a few books that I need for now and leave."

Since these magic books are too advanced, Ivita didn’t even dream of taking all of them. These books themselves could be some very profound Black Magic.

Anyone taking them without understanding might invite uncontrollable disaster.

Even his own Light Soul couldn’t suppress so many advanced magic books at the same time. Perhaps, once he had a Dark Soul, he might be able to do it.

With this thought, Ivita was using his Light Soul to scan the books, looking for the ones that would be most useful to him at present. At the same time, he was suppressing the five magic books in his hand, then he said to the Demon inside the Iron Maiden, "It seems that the third floor underground no longer needs a guide. At least it doesn’t need you to guide me to the next level of the library. So why did Shaw place you here?"

The corpse inside the Iron Maiden became furious. "Who says I was arranged or placed here? I was sealed into a withered mummy. I am the Knowledge Demon King of Hell, but Shaw abducted me from Hell and suppressed me here."

"He told me that he had used a seal on me, and even if I could escape from this corpse, I would have to assist the person who enters the third level of the library underground for ten years."

Ivita raised an eyebrow, ten years?

The corpse inside the Iron Maiden said, "You don’t have a Dark Soul, you can’t see the past events just by contacting me, but that’s okay, let me show you what trick Shaw used."

There was a flash before Ivita’s eyes. Before his Light Soul could react, he was dragged into a memory.

Ivita immediately realized that the Demon had used the [Logical Attack Skill], taking advantage of the rules of the past and the logic of all things that had happened before, bypassing his Light Soul, to directly project its physical memories into his mind.

This was the greatest weakness of a wizard without a Dark Soul, when only possessing a Light Soul!

Ouch!

Pain!

It was as if countless insects were gnawing at every inch of his body.

When Ivita opened his eyes, he found that ’he’ was hanging upside down on a wooden frame shaped like the holy number ’4’, and he was actually burning in flames.

Every inch of his skin was being charred.

Because of the flames and the pain of the man, he couldn’t see the scene outside the flames clearly. He just saw a group of people in gorgeous silk robes watching ’himself’ burning in the flames from seats.

A majestic voice said, "The Knowledge Demon King has possessed this citizen’s body. For our great and holy cause, we need to burn him into charcoal and make him into a mummy that won’t decay. In this way, the Knowledge Demon King can be trapped forever in an immovable shell."

Voices, young or old, rang out.

"Amen~"

"Amen~"

Within the flames, the illusion disappeared, and Ivita returned to the third floor underground of the library. He looked at the Iron Maiden with apprehension in his eyes.

This Demon still had a way to cause him great harm.

Why did Shaw leave this demon for him?

Was the purpose of the Iron Crown’s order to come to the big library, for him to obtain the ten years obedience of the Knowledge Demon King?

But this was only the Demon’s side of the story inside the Iron Maiden. Maybe it wasn’t the Knowledge Demon King at all and didn’t need to serve him for ten years.

Dealing with demons was like dealing with the most top-notch liars in the world.

While Ivita was thinking, he suddenly felt a bit hot. He looked up only to see the Sect Hierarch of the Sun God Sect pointing at Ivita’s forehead in horror, "Why do you have the mark of the Sun God on you?"

"The target of the Three-headed Black Sheep and its followers has become ... you?"

Ivita looked at her in confusion.

The Demon inside the Iron Maiden spoke up, "What? What happened? I just showed him the last memory of this body. I didn’t do anything."

"This is not my fault. Are you trying to trick me?"
