After the unknown soul dissipated, it left behind two items: a human-shaped statue covered in cracks and on the verge of breaking, emanating a blue fluorescence, and an oval-shaped gem that sometimes changed between fluorescent blue and grayish-white.
"That person..."
Su Bai roughly guessed his identity.
That must be the soul of the executioner.
His body, failing to contain the 'power of suffering,' did not transform into a sword to break the cage, but instead became that terrifying monster. However, his soul still guards this place, maintaining peace in this region.
Although we do not know what he was originally.
But as one can imagine.
His willpower was terrifying to have endured for so many years alone in that hellish place where thousands of evil spirits were suppressed.
However.
Even so.
He still couldn't withstand the transformative power of the 'Soul of Suffering'...
Su Bai had experienced this feeling of personal will being easily crushed before. When faced with the erosion of divine power, even the strongest personal will seemed like a joke, completely insignificant.
This made him think of many things.
"The Soul of Suffering, perhaps another unknown god who coveted this place and bestowed upon him power... Whether he can control this power or not, his fate was already sealed when he accepted the temptation of the other god."
"There should be a long hidden story about this person."
"...Anyway, the result is the same."
Su Bai thought to himself.
He walked over and picked up the two items the man had left on the ground.
When picking up the former.
He immediately felt an unparalleled peace from the bottom of his heart.
It's like... entering a state of enlightenment without any foreplay, having no desire whatsoever for worldly disputes.
but.
Su Bai only paused for a moment before quickly returning to normal.
He looked at the attributes of both.
A brief moment of tranquility

...
crackling sounds...
The soul dust I held in my hand was still breaking apart, and it looked like it would completely dissipate in another ten minutes or so.
At that time.
The balancing forces that have enveloped the entire area should also disappear completely.
Su Bai didn't care about Fei Qi's words at first, but after hearing the unknown soul's last words to him, they couldn't help but resurface in his mind.
"Can I do better?"
Su Bai shrugged slightly.
He is likely to completely disappoint the expectations of that unknown soul.
Having arrived here, Su Bai had no intention of saving anyone. Even if he saved Youssefka and Merlin, it was only for his own benefit.
I hope he will come and change everything.
That depends on whether Su Bai can achieve his goal smoothly.
"Enjoy the final moments of peace."
Su Baiping muttered to himself.
He placed the executioner's soul dust back in its original place, listened to the clear, shattering sound, and then turned and left.
The tranquility effect can last for another ten minutes or so.
Perfect.
It allows him to collect all the items that have fallen on the ground.
"We'll pick them out later; I'll save the best set of equipment for you."
He addressed the crowd.
then.
Su Bai then activated the merciless vacuum cleaner mode.
...
Somewhere in the neighborhood.
Inside an unassuming building.
A disheveled, unkempt beggar was returning home with some food he had just bought.
"Hehehe...Mom!...Hungry!"
He grinned foolishly and shouted into the depths of the room.
Splash...
Soon, a dull dragging sound came from the darkness, and the arm of a grotesque monster, completely mutated and made of flesh and black fur, stretched out from a tightly closed door.
It took the food.
Then a heavy chopping sound rang out in the room.
Seeing this, the foolish beggar circled around, sat down at the dining table, and quietly waited, tracing the wood grain on the table as he did so, like a child obediently waiting for his parents to cook dinner.
...
Inside a dimly lit, dilapidated church.
A terrifying figure was wandering around the church hall.
It seemed to be searching for something, rummaging around carefully, but because it couldn't control its strength, it always ended up destroying perfectly good things.
A little girl, covered in dirt, squatted not far from it, taking small bites of the cold, hardened dough in her hand.
His eyes were filled with a blank stare, a result of extreme fear.
But more than anything, there is uncertainty about the future.
Until a certain moment.
The terrifying monster that had been searching for something finally stopped.
It pulled a black scripture from a broken old box, tossed it to the little girl from a distance, and mumbled repeatedly indistinctly:
"Redemption...redemption..."
...
Inside a damp, deep well in a dark courtyard.
Glug glug...
The murky water level began to rise.
The water contained a chilling mixture of things: wet hair, severed fingers, and pale fragments of skin...
