The Birth of Evil

As an intelligence investigator for the Dark Forces, Li Lingna suddenly recalled some past events.

"This formation! I think I've seen it somewhere before... And I've seen different formations in different places."

"Different formations in different places? What do you mean?"

"The formation before us was pieced together from a series of formations. There are two formations for 'flesh sacrifice' alone, but their sacrificial processes are entirely different. One produces Flesh-Eating Worms that devour the sacrifices alive, then transfers the energy gained through digestion to the caster. The other simply rots the flesh, turning the decayed and withered flesh into energy that the formation delivers to the caster's body."

"What would happen if both were used together?"

"The Flesh-Eating Worms would be annihilated along with the sacrifices as they devour them, maximizing the transfer of fleshly nutrients into the caster's body... In addition, there are two evil soul sorcery formations here. Used together, they can forcibly draw out the sacrifices' souls alive and grind them into an easily digestible and absorbable soul essence, which is then supplied to the caster's main body."

Yu Jing rubbed his chin and
