Before Wandering Soul described what "Divine Punishment" truly entailed, players had always thought it was a nuclear bomb, or something with fire power output similar to a nuclear bomb.
In any case, it belonged to the type that could snatch a soul with one strike.
But in fact, derived from the Spirit Communication Art and born from the Yuanling, it was undoubtedly also a Spirit Communication Art, a punishment bestowed by a "god" essentially an aggregation of mental intensity.
At that time, the world had yet to be covered by the Magic Net, and Yuanlings were far more active than they are today; however, the alienation of Yuanlings by faith caused regional distinctions among Yuanlings—similar to "ethnic" divisions.
Even so, the "Shadow Elemental Spirits" active on the vast lands of the Rostorton kingdom still possessed the characteristics of Yuanlings.
They absolutely obeyed the most genuine desires deep in people's hearts.
