Immortality?

Everyone has their own ideals, and immortality is an obsession pursued by countless people. Whether it's the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of ancient times or many powerful figures today, how many of them have perished on the path to seeking immortality?

Is immortality really that easy to achieve?

Utterly ridiculous.

Li Chen tapped his fingers lightly on the throne, his tone cold as he said, "Zero killed him."

Upon receiving the order, Zero instantly charged out.

The eerie tentacles behind him slammed into the ground, causing cracks to appear.

The Evil Cult snorted coldly, bit his fingertip, and shouted angrily, "Aren't you going to make a move?"

"Do you want to see us defeated one by one?"

"If the Holy Maiden is taken away by someone else, the Lord will be furious, and we might become the next sacrifices!"

In the pause of his speech.

The Ghost Infant behind them had also merged with countless corpses, becoming enormous, like a fleshy ball rolling in the roses, extremely disgusting.

Zero narrowed his eyes slightly and murmured, "An aura that doesn't belong to its kind, a combination of death energy and blood energy. Humans really are a terrifying species."

No wonder my My Lord doesn't want to be complicit in wrongdoing.

With a "clang".

Countless strange fleshy spikes protruded from the ground and pierced directly into the Ghost Infant's body.

The thumping sounds continued.

The fleshy ball was exploding violently inside, but miraculously it didn't disintegrate and survived.

Ling paused in mid-air, frowning in confusion.

He had just used his ability to wreak havoc inside the Ghost Infant's body, like countless bombs exploding inside a person, yet the monster survived.

Moreover, its aura grew increasingly powerful.

What's going on?

At this moment, several figures also moved, surrounding and attacking Yu and Zai.

Compared to their numbers, their Evil Cult, with only eight Evil Cult at the Calamity Realm present, actually faces some difficulty in dealing with this Child of Destiny.

It's truly bizarre.

The blue flames in the eyes of the Evil Cult member wearing the skull mask were raging. He didn't make a move, but just observed, as if everything was none of his business.

He slowly drew a snow-white bone knife from his waist and said, "The Child of Destiny, Li Chen; the holy maiden, Cang Yue. It seems it truly is fate's arrangement. I also need to choose sides. This journey has indeed been quite tiring."

"Evil Cult, Evil Cult... Hahaha, Evil Cult!"

With a "buzzing" sound.

His figure moved with lightning speed.

His black robe fell off, revealing his true form: snow-white bone armor encircled his body, the protruding spikes possessing an eerie beauty.

With a "whoosh".

An Evil Cult, who had been slashed into the ground, stared in disbelief at the man and roared, "Skeleton! What do you think you're doing?!"

"Do you intend to become our enemy?"

The Skeleton stood in the air, its fiery eyes meeting Li Chen's gaze. The mask on its face gradually fell away, and its unchanging bone face seemed to reveal a relieved smile.

I'm just trying to live a better life.

"I dare not fight against Fate!"

"I've never been called Skeleton... I'm called Blood Charm."

He had witnessed Li Chen survive in dire straits and escape from the clutches of the Evil Cult time and time again. He had never believed in fate, but if the things that happened to Li Chen had happened to him, he might have already turned to dust.

Gradually, he came to believe in fate.

He believed this was an age of Fate, and that fighting against it would only lead to death, so why become its enemy?

His belief was that simply living was such a small wish—was it really that difficult?

One of the Evil Cult glared at Blood Charm and shouted, "You've betrayed your faith!"

"The cult leader will kill you. You still have a chance to turn back now. We won't say another word."

"As long as we get the Holy Maiden back, everything that happened today can be pretended never happened!"

Blood Charm let out a cold laugh.

What if it didn't happen? Once he did those things, there was absolutely no turning back.

Even if he manages to rescue the saintess, he will still die.

The promises they made were nothing but lies.

Li Chen was not far away, naturally already knew who that person was.

The two first met when Pandora was opened in Shenzhou City. It's hard to believe that he has also come to this point.

However, the two were enemies to begin with.

Why is he now involved with the God-Slaying Cult?

Moreover, it seemed that the person was going to rebel against his Evil Cult. Li Chen narrowed his eyes, unsure of what the person was up to.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield...

Zai and Yu are fighting against four Calamity Realm experts, and they are not at a disadvantage at all.

One of the Evil Cult members, wielding a bloodstained mace made of human skulls, frantically pounded on Yu's body, cursing, "Damn it, how come this thing won't die?"

"His healing speed is too fast!"

Yu glanced at the two people in front of him with what seemed like disdain, then slightly raised the black broadsword in his hand and grinned.

"My Lord, I say you all deserve to die!"

You deserve to die!

The attack, seemingly yet to land.

It instantly draped across their chests, and the faint sound of bones cracking could even be clearly heard.

Bang bang~

The two fell directly into the garden, scattering a shower of roses.

Desire, on the other hand, follows closely behind.

Before the two could react, he was already in front of them in an instant, and his broadsword came crashing down wildly.

Exploding blood and bones flew through the air.

The two people's screams were heart-wrenching.

Even among those at the Calamity Realm, there are varying degrees of strength.

Zai's lips curled slightly upward as he gripped his cane and looked at the Evil Cult before him, sneering, "Looks like I can't be left behind."

"The Plague had already spread, and madness followed closely behind."

With a clang.

His cane tapped the ground.

A green wave of energy seemed to appear around us, rushing towards us.

The two Evil Cult's expressions suddenly turned to horror, and they whispered, "Damn it, that guy is Pride!"

"How could things have turned out like this, and why am I following the Child of Destiny?"

"Isn't he Seven Sins of the City of Sin?"

They were unaware of these things. Pride was inherently a solitary figure, with an extremely small presence among the Seven Sins. Many people even believed that Pride had simply disappeared, not died.

But why is he now appearing under the Child of Destiny, Mo?

The monster revealed a strange smile, looking at the two men, and said, "My Lord is beyond your comprehension. May you vanish into the Plague."

"Fog!"

The two Evil Cult possessed a bewildering, Pride ability.

They knew it was extremely strange.

For a moment, she didn't know how to react. She could only smile and watch them walk slowly through the sea of flowers, with each step they took causing a rose to wither.

The black ash was blown about by the strong wind.

Suddenly, one of the Evil Cult touched his nose, and drops of black blood fell from it. It turned out that they had unknowingly been affected by that guy's power.

But while they were wondering, the brain had not yet sent any signals.

Disaster also walked up to the two of them, grinning.

"I am calamity."
