"The reason it is also called divine art is because in ancient times, gods and spirits were not distinguished and were synonyms. In fact, it is more appropriate to call the art that relies on the spirit as a medium spiritual art. However, in many cases, it is difficult to distinguish it from divine art that relies on gods in form. The only difference is in power and domain."
"The paths that allow one to wield divine magic are spiritual cultivation, sorcery, divination, and combat..."
Li Si commented calmly, "You memorized the book quite well. Being able to see the spirit is a mark of a Blood Realm sorcerer. At first, I thought you were all extraordinary individuals, but I didn't expect that there was actually a true Blood Realm cultivator among you."
So it turns out I wasn't the only one pretending to be weak... Chen Jing looked at Zhang Taoying, who was trembling with fear.

No one spoke. Led by Li Si, they cautiously approached the target angel, inevitably having to step among the white, oily-colored maggots with human faces, and even stepping on them.
Suddenly, Li Si stopped in his tracks.
"Priest, what's wrong?" Dao Nan asked.
“These…” Li Si looked at the human-faced maggots on the ground: “These are not corpses.”
Chen Jing immediately realized what this meant: it meant that all the maggots with human faces scattered everywhere were alive!
He Lili's expression changed, and she shouted, "I sense murderous intent!"
She pointed to the angel nailed to the stake.
