Chapter 121 Illusions, All Illusions
There were about eighty pirates, and before long, they divided up the gold of misfortune among themselves.
The pirates returned to their ship happily. They were thinking in their hearts that after they returned, they would use this gold to buy a manor, returning home as rich landowners. Tia Dalma came with the pirates, but instead of setting off with them, she left on a small boat alone.
Only Roy saw that Tia Dalma had taken out bones to do a divination before she left, and he did not know what result she got that prompted her to leave alone...
After everyone left, Roy looked at the quivering slave traders. These slave traders were crying bitterly, looking like pitiful baby chicks, but Roy had long smelled the aroma of fallen souls in these slave traders.
If pirates could only be regarded as fierce and vicious, then these slave traders were truly heinous. Their souls had already said everything
Although Roy had been controlling his Soul Devouring Addiction, the smell of fallen souls was really too tempting for demons. Even Roy could not help but come closer and smell their souls.
But when Roy did this, the slave traders were even more terrified and collapsed. They cried and knelt on the ground, begging Roy for mercy, and some of them even peed their pants.

However, Roy was unmoved. As a demon, the humans he usually came into contact with were either greedy or had dark hearts. Most of them were scumbags and villains. These people did not deserve any sympathy at all, and Roy was only interested in their souls.
He turned to Cassandra and said, “I’ll hand them over to you! Remember to bring their souls back!”
Seeing Cassandra nod, Roy spread his wings and flew back to the Frozen Throne. Fat Tiger followed him loyally.
As for what Cassandra was going to do to these slave traders, it was not his concern. It was all for Cassandra’s revenge.
After returning to the throne and sitting, Roy took out the scroll that Tia Dalma had given him and opened it.
Roy stared at the scroll with a solemn expression. To be honest, he had never thought that he would obtain such an item in the Pirates of the Caribbean world.
From the demon text engraved on it, it was apparent that this scroll should just be a rubbing, seemingly rubbed from an ancient stone stele. This was because Roy saw some blurry characters symbols on it, which should not happen if the scroll was the original.
What was even stranger was that every demon character symbol on this scroll carried a thick aura of darkness and flames. These characters were usually hidden, and only when they came into contact with demons from the Abyss like Roy would they sense their aura and reappear.
Demon Bible... Is this the doctrine of the demons? Roy thought in doubt. The problem is that demons only believe in power...
With this doubt in his mind, Roy began to read it.
“... Like a meteor, he pierced through the earth and continued down. Finally, he reached the depths of this world and stopped there.
“The kings of the seven deadly sins knelt in front of him and witnessed his great feats...
“The black sun and the demon moon were born. The sea had tides, and the world had levels...
“After giving the Abyss an authority equivalent to a Side of the Infinite Worlds, he left this place and returned to the void...”
The demon language conveyed meaning through the power of the soul, but the unclear text did not have the same effect, so the content Roy read appeared intermittent. Fortunately, there was no such thing as translation errors, so Roy interpreted most of it.
What surprised Roy was that this Demon Bible seemed to be the same as the human Bible. It was about a creator creating a world. What differed was that the human Bible was about the process of creating the human world, and the Demon Bible was about creating the Abyss! Inferring from this, should there be a similar bible that exists in Heaven and describes the process of Heaven being created?
Roy’s claws gently tapped the armrest of the throne as he read the content of the Demon Bible again while in deep thought, carefully pondering over the meaning of each word.
The kings of the seven deadly sins... Is this referring to the demon kings who control the seven deadly sins? If so, it means that these Seven Demon Kings appeared in the Abyss with the creator from the beginning, rather than what the human Bible said, in that one of the angels, Lucifer, had fallen into the Abyss of Hell...
In other words, I misunderstood. Fallen angels were a species of the Abyss from the beginning? Then why can demons contaminate and transform angels into fallen angels after acquiring their souls?
Is there a mistake in this?
Also, the black sun and demon moon, this should be the purple moon on the surface of the Abyss, right? But I haven’t seen the black sun nor know what it looks like...
Finally, it was the so-called ‘equivalent to a Side of the Infinite Worlds’. Since it mentioned the Infinite Worlds, does that mean that there were already many different worlds when the Abyss appeared? And could the so-called ‘Side’ be understood as meaning something like an ‘inner world? Does the phrase ‘equivalent to...’ mean that there were many inner worlds of the Infinite Worlds like the Abyss?
Roy counted with his fingers. The Abyss and Heaven are definitely each considered a Side of the Infinite Worlds. In addition, perhaps there was the Underworld? Or the Elemental World?
This scroll was only the sixth chapter of the Demon Bible, but the information involved was astounding.
Since there was such a rubbing of the bible, it meant that the original text of the bible definitely existed somewhere in the Abyss. But Roy had been in the Abyss for a long time and had never heard any demon mention the creator of the Abyss, and this creator did not even have a name in the bible.
Demons talked more about being the subordinates of certain demon kings, including Tia Dalma. When she saw Roy, she had said something similar. It seemed that all demons naturally regarded the Demon Kings of the Seven Deadly Sins as the creators of the Abyss...
Of course, there was nothing wrong with this. After all, demons advocated power, and the power of first-level demon kings was something that many demons could only look up to, and the Deadly Sin Demon Kings were above demon kings. However, this was already the limit that demons could come into contact with. The creator, who had disappeared, was an illusory existence to demons and gradually became forgotten.
According to Tia Dalma, this scroll rubbing was obtained from a high-rank demon, meaning high-rank demons and even higher-level demons might be looking for the text of this bible...

In other words, low-level demons might not know, but high-level demons probably knew about the existence of the Demon Bible. No matter what kind of creature it was, they were born to worship their creator, and demons were absolutely no exceptions. But in the Abyss, high-level demons clearly knew that there was a creator, but they had not been able to form a top-down religious order to worship the creator. Was this not a little too strange? Moreover, judging from the content of this chapter of the Demon Bible, the creator of Heaven and the Abyss should be the same. Although Roy had not seen the bible on the side of Heaven, the Bible of the human world seemed to be born under the influence of Heaven, so it could be used as reference. In the human world, the Bible said that the God of the Holy Trinity was the only true god in the world. So if this was true, then the creator of Heaven and the Abyss should be God. But demons never recognized that God was the true God, so there was immediate conflict...
In particular, there were many versions of sacred scriptures in the human world, leading to the emergence of even more gods, causing confusion. Conversely, if the Bible of the human world came from the influence of Heaven, did that mean that the bible of Heaven was also in a disorderly state?
As he thought about it, Roy suddenly shivered. Damn it! Why does it feel like something is wrong? It seemed like both Heaven and the Abyss are intentionally downplaying the existence of the true creator...
What are they up to?
Forget it. This question doesn’t seem like something I can touch now. Roy quickly stopped his imagination from running wild. After all, he had only seen some things and could not discern the truth yet. It was meaningless to think about it.
After thinking about it, Roy placed his attention on the rubbing of the bible. After hearing the process of obtaining this rubbing from Tia Dalma, Roy felt that it seemed to contain some mystical powers.
The high-rank flame demon who originally held the rubbing seemed to be able to interfere with the formation of Gates of Heaven and Gates of the Abyss. Roy believed that it was definitely not the power of the flame demon himself, and it was certainly related to the rubbing in front of him.
But what should he do?
Roy tried to input his magic power into this scroll.
Very strange. This scroll seems to be able to carry magic power, but it’s like a bottomless pit. No matter how much magic power I input, the scroll isn’t reacting.
After thinking about it for a while, Roy stopped inputting magic power. This scroll was previously in the hands of Tia Dalma... or Calypso. At that time, she would have definitely tried something similar. If just inputting magic power was useful, then Calypso would have long discovered the use of the scroll.
Since magic power did not work, he could only use another method! Roy used his nails to slash his palm, creating a wound. Before the wound healed, he quickly dripped some of his demon blood onto the scroll.
A strange scene appeared. Roy’s demon blood instantly disappeared after dripping onto it! It was as though the scroll absorbed it immediately.
The next moment, Roy suddenly felt a burst of fluctuations spreading out in all directions with the scroll as the center. The surrounding objects and scenery shook with the fluctuations.
After the fluctuations spread, it quickly calmed down, and there were no more movements from the scroll. Nothing around seemed to have changed, making Roy wonder if he had an illusion just now.
“What happened?” Roy looked around curiously but could not sense anything.
