"Mr. Mu Lisi, let him finish speaking!"

Ha'er reached out and placed his hand on the shoulder of the enraged Mu Lisi, suppressing Mu Lisi's rampaging inner Qi with his own Internal Qi Circulation.

"Deputy Mu Lisi, let him finish speaking. I want to know what else he has to say!" Xi'er also spoke with a cold and stern expression, trying to persuade.

At this moment, Ha'er and Xi'er no longer referred to the Pope as His Holiness but simply as a commonplace 'he'.

This was enough to prove that, in their hearts, they were becoming unable to accept what the Pope was saying.

However, it had not yet reached the point of eruption!

Mu Lisi glanced at Ha'er and Xi'er, sensed Ha'er's somewhat unstable Inner Qi, and gradually restrained his aura, staring directly at the Pope and speaking in a deep voice: "Continue speaking!"

The Pope looked at Mu Lisi and the others and sighed gently. Since his appointment, he had begun covertly weakening Ye Hehua's influence over the church members.

However, to reverse the years of influence in less than a hundred years since his appointment was impossible!

Therefore, the Pope also understood the reactions of Mu Lisi and the others!

Alas!

The Pope sighed heavily and gently said, "I know my words will make you very indignant, but I hope you can listen to me finish!"

"Speak!"

Fa Rang said abruptly, he too was unable to accept it!

"Fa Rang!"

Dragon Saint spoke in a deep voice: "Every member of the Holy Court, even Mi Jiaro can resent A'erfa, but you, do not have that right!"

"Why?"

Fa Rang looked up, staring directly at Dragon Saint.

Dragon Saint met Fa Rang's gaze head-on, speaking slowly and pointedly: "If it weren't for A'erfa, you would no longer be yourself!"

"I..."

Fa Rang furrowed his brows tightly, somewhat unable to understand Dragon Saint's words.

"Let me explain!" The Pope looked at Fa Rang with complicated eyes and spoke softly: "Back then, what I discovered was that Ye Hehua had left a backhand on Origin Star, attempting to control the entire land during the Era of Martial Decline. At that time, strong individuals worldwide were falling due to their impending demise, and Ye Hehua wanted to make a powerful return once the world's powers had fallen to a certain extent!"

"Return!?"

"What!?"

"He's going to return?!"

Everyone was once again stunned, exclaiming in shock.

"Yes! Return!"

The Pope nodded gently.

Dragon Saint interrupted: "Back then, Senior Jiang Wuqing sensed Ye Hehua's motive, brought me to Malo, rescued A'erfa, and stormed the Holy Court, severing the connection between Fei'ersi and Ye Hehua completely, plunging them into a deep slumber!"

"My ancestor?!"

Jiang Chen looked at Dragon Saint in astonishment.

Dragon Saint nodded: "Don't think Senior Jiang Wuqing only had prestige in Flame Dragon; he was a Dragon Descendant who traveled the world. Which martial arts great did not know the name of Senior Jiang Wuqing? Mr. Jiang, what you know about Senior Jiang Wuqing is just the tip of the iceberg!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen was greatly shocked.

He had always thought that his ancestor, Jiang Wuqing, only held a transcendent status in Flame Dragon, but he did not know that Jiang Wuqing had left his mark around the world in the Martial Dao World!

"After Senior Jiang Wuqing saved me, he took me and his old friend Dragon Saint along to investigate the Holy Court's affairs. However, back then, the members of the Holy Court believed in Ye Hehua to the point that it was in their souls; they simply did not believe what we had discovered. From that time, the Holy Court and Flame Dragon Martial Arts World broke ties!"

The Pope continued: "And the result of our investigation at that time was..."

Looking up at Fa Rang and the others, the Pope said heavily: "Ye Hehua wanted to turn all human beings worldwide into his followers. When everyone started to generate the Power of Faith, it would be time for him to start harvesting; you all are core members of the Holy Court, you should know how the Power of Faith is generated."

"It is transformed by Soul Power, which means Ye Hehua wanted to extract the Soul Power of all humans worldwide to enhance his strength. And once his plan succeeded, everyone in the world would become his slaves, tools to boost his strength!"

"Impossible!"

Mu Lisi shouted again, his eyes revealing a cold and icy glare: "A'erfa, you are slandering the Almighty!"

Buzz buzz buzz!

Mu Lisi's entire aura erupted fiercely, pressing towards the Pope!

Buzz buzz buzz!

Several powerful auras exploded, Dragon Saint, Elder Long, and others unleashed their Saint Realm Aura, forcefully dispersing Mu Lisi's aura and suppressing Mu Lisi, while isolating the entire pavilion.

"Continue speaking!" Fa Rang didn't care about Mu Lisi, staring directly at the Pope.

The Pope glanced at Fa Rang and continued: "One of the means left by Ye Hehua were Fei'ersi and others, and another means was the Primordial Spirit Seed!"

"Primordial Spirit Seed!?"

Fa Rang tightly furrowed his brows.

The Pope gently nodded: "Yes, Primordial Spirit Seed. When a martial artist cultivates to the Venerable Realm, they begin to cultivate Soul Power. When breaking through the Saint Realm, they condense Divine Soul, and upon advancing beyond the Saint Realm, the Divine Soul transforms into Primordial Spirit."

"At this moment, the Primordial Spirit can separate, just like our Soul Power. However, the Primordial Spirit Power that separates from the Primordial Spirit can be preserved for a long time through special means, unlike Soul Power which gradually dissipates over time."

"In the Holy Court's three Divine Artifacts, there are several strands of Primordial Spirit Power, coagulated into Primordial Spirit Seeds, screening those who use the Divine Artifacts. If someone meets the criteria, a Primordial Spirit Seed will be planted, waiting for that person to grow and then begin the descent!"

Jiang Chen furrowed his brows, looking at Fa Rang and Mi Jiaro; the three Divine Artifacts of the Holy Court were currently held by them and the Pope.

"Because of the arrival of the Era of Martial Decline, the Primordial Spirit Seeds in the three Divine Artifacts fell into dormancy, only to be awakened by someone who absolutely meets the criteria!"

The Pope continued: "And my grandson, the previous Pope, was the first person they selected!"

"What!?"

"Previous Pope?!"

"Then he..."

The Supreme Elder and others exclaimed in surprise. They were from the same era as the previous Pope and had varying degrees of understanding of him.

Fa Rang and others stared directly at the Pope, Xi'er and others' expressions became extremely grim, as they had already thought of some possibilities but were unwilling to believe them.

Meanwhile, Mu Lisi had tried multiple times to break free from the restraints on him, but couldn't, and could only glare viciously at the Pope.

The Pope glanced at the crowd, his expression suddenly bitter, eyes revealing a hint of sorrow. He sighed lightly and continued telling his story.
