No one is born evil.
Including these criminals.
Too many lives have already been lost. Along his journey, Li Chen has lost count of how many Eerie Monsters have followed him, and he is also unaware of how many people Zai and Yu have killed.
He walked through the night, ink in hand, his eyes like those of the deepest Yellow Springs.
Lust, Pride, Envy, Gluttony... their power has been completely shattered, and they have now merged into Li Chen's Eerie Monsters army.
Although many people noticed what was happening here, they were all quietly killed by the disaster. This was a purge, and also a bloody massacre of the city.
Ling followed cautiously beside Li Chen, saying, "My Lord, there are now approximately fifty thousand Eerie Monsters."
"Most of their strength is at the Dripping Water Realm."
Li Chen nodded, without responding.
This number increases slightly every ten minutes, which is roughly how many people have died.
Human lives were like an unreal number to him, but that was the truth.
Accompanied by the addition of numerous Eerie Monsters.
The Forbidden aura emanating from him had already increased to a terrifying level, even Zero felt fear.
These Eerie Monsters creatures were born from the Forbidden Substance within Li Chen's body; they were one.
Now, a large number of Eerie Monsters are devouring life and evolving by consuming their own kind, which naturally benefits Li Chen. This enormous number brings not only Forbidden but also power.
It's just that the faster one's strength grows...
His body became increasingly strange.
Li Chen could even feel the changes beginning to occur in his internal organs. His body had already reached the critical point of the Calamity Realm. As time went on, his physical body would inevitably step into the Calamity Realm sooner or later.
Mental power is also expanding infinitely.
The speed at which this power is increasing is terrifying.
Even Li Chen himself is unsure of the extent of the damage that using his ability would cause to people and things.
Natural side effects are also increasing.
He can no longer remember anything from his childhood. This is happening at an alarming rate. If this continues, he will completely forget everything he ever had in just a few days.
He can only be an idiot with no memory.
This is the side effect; gaining power comes at a price.
At this moment, Zai teleported to Li Chen's side and bowed, saying, "My Lord, ahead lies the territory of the Wrath."
"Shall we go in?"
Li Chen pondered for a few seconds, his gaze unfathomable.
"Enter."
He needed to deal with everyone quickly; he couldn't delay any longer. He had to eliminate them before his body completely collapsed.
These Eerie Monsters were then retrieved through the Forbidden Door.
This way, he could also avoid the Forbidden influence of the taboo; he didn't want to become an idiot.
After this battle ends, I will try to access the Authority Power within the Throne Space, attempting to find out whether the Forbidden Authority truly exists in the world.
Time is running out for him.
Having embarked on this path of no return, he never prepared a way out. Since he Evil Cult, and the world called him the Child of Destiny, he would go and find out which direction Fate had led him in.
Whether it's freedom or a cage, you have to find out for yourself.
As Li Chen pondered, holding the inkstone, he arrived at the Wrath territory, a place he had never been before.
It was guided by disaster.
Abyssal Gladiatorial Arena.
This was a place that fit the description of Wrath. Although he had never met him in person, Li Chen knew a little about him.
But now the scales have already tipped.
What right does someone in his Wrath have to oppose him?
Li Chen said coldly, "Yu, Zai, go and bring him out."
"I want to see it alive."
"Yes, My Lord." The gentleman removed his top hat, smiled slightly, and vanished in an instant.
Yu stood there stunned, nodded blankly, and dragged his broadsword inside.
Li Chen fell into deep thought.
It seems that we still need to give Yu a fresh perspective.
A puppet is still just a puppet; it lacks human emotions, and even its efficiency will be significantly slower.
They don't even dodge attacks; they just keep attacking. This is their Eerie Monsters fighting style. They are not afraid of pain; all they care about is killing those poor reptiles.
Ling Xiao's small figure stood silently guarding Li Chen, while she curiously played with a bloodstained spine in her hand, which was still fresh.
In the eyes of Eerie Monsters, humans are merely two-legged sheep, their food. Therefore, they never feel disgust when devouring humans; they only feel excitement and pleasure.
After waiting for a while...
Zai appeared at the door, carrying a burly man who was half-dead, and came to Li Chen.
"My Lord, that Wrath fellow has escaped."
There's only one person still alive inside right now.
Li Chen glanced at the burly man, who suddenly widened his eyes, his hands trembled as if he had been struck by lightning, and his face turned bright red.
With a soft "bang," a tiny sound seemed to come from inside his body, and his life ended there.
Li Chen stared into the darkness and murmured, "The night is still long, where can I escape to?"
"And then there is the Greed Throne..."
Now that Wrath has taken notice of him, it means that it has discovered that Pride has also fallen.
Therefore, the Seven Sins have essentially come to an end.
All that remains are these empty thrones and the forces still vying for them.
As for the criminals, now that the entire City of Sin has undergone two rounds of cleansing, there should be very few left.
Ultimately, this power is useless now, because far too many people have died.
Without the support of a crowd, power is like a piece of waste paper.
Wrath and Greed were drawing ever closer to the top of the barrier. The two men dug their bare hands into the dark barrier, climbing upwards bit by bit.
It's not that they're unwilling to use their abilities to advance, but rather that they don't want to alert a particular person.
Greed gripped a steel plate, his eyes blazing with Wrath, "As long as we can get through the pass, and if any lord doesn't notice, I can use my power to tear a gap in the entire pass!"
"Then there will be real chaos. You take your family and flee. I only hope that you can give me a ride in the end."
"If you break the contract, the 'End of the Spirit' within you will bloom and completely devour your life."
Wrath snorted angrily, shoved his hand into the wall, and said sternly, "Don't worry, I never break contracts. As long as you help me out, I won't do that. At least until you finish this matter, I'll protect you!"
"I hope so." A hint of worry flashed in his Greed eyes. Right now, everyone was trying to escape this terrible prison; staying inside was tantamount to a slow death.
Moreover, he could sense that their goal wouldn't be achieved so easily.
That Child of Destiny is terrifying...
Even he, as Authority Holder, felt fear.
Moreover, there are hidden Evil Cults whose motives are unknown, making the situation increasingly murky.
Even those at the Calamity Realm could only flee.
Not to mention the ordinary criminals.
