Mo Lun needed to make a correction as soon as this thought was born: "Forgive my stupidity!"
The basic teachings of the Bloodflame Order did not recognize the existence of personified gods in the world. They believed that the Bloodflame Will existed within all personalities. Under certain conditions, the Bloodflame Will would form dominance over all higher conscious life forms.
As for the nature of the Bloodflame Will, it was explained as the extreme side of nature. It was the pinnacle of power that could only be reached through the extreme paths of blood and fire.
It was very difficult for such teachings to gain favor in the context of the modern world. Because of this, the order had carried out many revisions to its teachings over the course of several decades. It had also buried the seeds of a great split and a great collapse.
Mo Lun was an elder of the order. He himself was more inclined towards the traditional teachings. He viewed the Bloodflame Will as a guide towards the pursuit of eternal power. He believed more in self-will and pursuit than in deference and humility. But it was impossible to not be disturbed and influenced by the chaos of several decades. He attributed the weak thoughts he had just had to a moment of confusion and foolishness.
He did his best to gather his mind and forget his thoughts just now. He carefully sensed what the First Oblatum had just said. It was the feeling of layers within the furnace of hell.
Sure enough, he discovered after paying attention that there was indeed a subtle difference in the current inferno compared to the blindly violent environment of before. Especially in the cries of "blood" and "fire" from the believers, there was already a subtle difference.
Some fanatical and resolute voices were clearly clearer within the inferno. They aroused even more echoes. This clear feedback was enough to prove that the construction of the Order's sacrificial vessel had indeed begun to take an embryonic form.
Mo Lun felt that tonight's hard work was worth it.
His consciousness separated from the Human-Faced Arachnid. His state of mind settled as he calmly waited for the arrival of the soul envoy.
The Human-Faced Arachnid stopped in the void next to Mo Lun. It was just as quiet, at least on the surface.
"Is this a dove occupying a magpie's nest? Or is it just wishful thinking?"
Luo Nan had truly watched a play in the past few minutes. He had gained new knowledge. Then he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. What rebirth from the flames? It was just the Wraith Sign reappearing after devouring its own kind.
The altar constructed by the Wraith Sign was a battlefield for its own kind to devour each other. The Human-Faced Arachnid, who came from the same source, simply had no chance of refusing the altar.

It was only natural that the experienced Wraith Sign, who had the home advantage, easily won.
This Human-Faced Arachnid of the Bloodflame Order had been nourished by the Bloodflame Summons of the Order's believers and the Bloodsoul Temple's construction, but its core essence was limited in terms of growth in strength. There was a considerable disparity between it and the Wraith Sign, which had been tempered and upgraded by Rui Wen.
After the Wraith Sign swallowed Jack's spiritual seed first, the gap between them widened even further. It was only natural for it to fail.
This once again confirmed that the Human-Faced Arachnid was a Darksider life form. It was unable to increase in strength through its own accumulation. It was unable to increase in strength through low-level "food".
The Bloodflame Order's method of "grazing" was actually correct. However, it was very unfortunate that they encountered the Wraith Sign, who was essentially on a different level from the other Faced Arachnid avatars.
After swallowing Jack's spiritual seed, Luo Nan felt that the Wraith Sign might have already surpassed the Wraith Sign he encountered at the Limestone Water Village Pub. At the very least, the Wraith Sign wasn't at a disadvantage.
However, this Bloodflame Order was a bit outside of his expectations. Luo Nan didn't want to have any contact with this Order. He didn't face it head on when Mo Lun attacked the heavily chained crow. In any case, the altar constructed by the Wraith Sign had already taken control of the situation. Everyone split up and left, never to meet again.
However, he never expected that the Wraith Sign would defeat its fellow Human-Faced Arachnid and that the Wraith Sign would be busy receiving the fruits of victory. The remnant method of driving the Human-Faced Arachnid's body would bring it back to the side of this mysterious power.
The furnace of hell within the Human-Faced Arachnid had already been completely incorporated into the framework of the altar. It was just that the Wraith Sign didn't have the time to retract it.
Mo Lun was completely unaware of this. He used the format of pure consciousness to communicate, sense, pray, and ponder. All of the energy and information circulated without the slightest bit of concealment. It was the same as displaying all of his secrets in one go. He wasn't much inferior to Jack.
Grasping another person's secrets was very refreshing, but it was inevitable that he would burn his brain as to how to leave. He couldn't really let the Wraith Sign follow him back to be some sacrificial vessel.
At this time, He Yueyin's call cut in on the Psychic Wave Network, which had just recovered normal communications. "Scout, are you okay?"
"Mm, I'm fine."
Luo Nan's soul body floated in the air to observe. He saw He Yueyin's tightly knitted brows as she communicated with him. Her brows relaxed after receiving a response. Luo Nan felt pretty good.

Actually, aside from the Wraith Sign's current dilemma, Luo Nan's current state wasn't just good. It was very good. It wasn't just good, it was great.
He had borne the burden of another sacrificial activity. He had won with the Wraith Sign, who had a close connection with him. The direct benefits for Luo Nan far surpassed what happened to Rui Wen.
Of course, this didn't include soul breathing.
In terms of the most intuitive range of mental senses, Luo Nan's range of senses began to rapidly recover the moment the mental storm stopped. The specific data had expanded by roughly fifty to sixty percent. The radius of his senses had nearly reached eight hundred meters.
The expansion of the range of his senses proved that the amount of energy and information Luo Nan could control had increased by a large margin. His precision had increased as well.
After his abilities increased, he always had a bit of a desire to show off. The Society's hunt for the Human-Faced Arachnid was probably about to begin. Luo Nan really was a bit eager to give it a try … … What a joke. He was thinking whether or not he could borrow the Society's hand to create an opportunity for the Wraith Sign to escape.
Who knew that He Yueyin's next words would be: "The operation is over. Return immediately."
"Huh? You're not chasing?"
"Chasing? Chasing who? "
"The one who plotted against you. The one who interfered with the communications of the Psychic Wave Network … …" Luo Nan really wanted to lead the Society's power towards Mo Lun. His words were not without a hint of encouragement.
He Yueyin was silent for a moment. Then she suddenly gestured to Giant Arm, Crag Burst, and the others beside her. At the same time, her voice suddenly turned soft and gentle. It was as if she was afraid of alarming the enemy.
"You saw him? Don't move no matter what. This person's strength is extremely powerful. Right now you're just a crow. Don't think about anything else. Let him go! "
"Uh. Hold on. That person has already left. But he should still be in this group of buildings. Aren't we going to chase him?"
He Yueyin was startled. She gestured to Giant Arm and the others, who were already preparing to move, to stop. Her voice immediately returned to normal. She said resolutely and decisively: "You return immediately. Our mission for today is over."
"But … …"
Luo Nan didn't know what to say for a time. Of course he could see that He Yueyin's series of changes were all for the sake of his safety. But what about the Wraith Sign on Mo Lun's side?
(Today is only the third watch. Tomorrow will be the same. The year is afraid of mid-autumn and the moon is afraid of the middle of the night. I'll adjust my tempo to the fourth watch as soon as possible when I recover next week. Please forgive me.)
