No amount of protection or obstruction will make a difference; the essence of everything will ultimately descend into chaos. The memory of the Man of Light and Shadow embraces Lu Li, and his activated special body transfers a great deal of information into Lu Li's body, transforming it and destroying Lu Li's rationality.

When Lu Li's soul completely transforms into another form, his personality and rationality will vanish completely. The memories of Lu Li Man of Light and Shadow will then occupy his soul, causing it to Mutation and connected with his original body, transforming into a lower-level Avatar.

This is because Lu Li and the Man of Light and Shadow are similar in essence, which is why he can do it so easily. Other beings, even that one, only have considerable control over this place. If they were to actually descend in Avatar, it would be extremely difficult.

"Hmm? Still want to resist?" The Man of Light and Shadow watched Lu Li's soul begin to change, and only felt the shadow body outside wriggle, the surging Shadow Magic erupted, the Original Sin Domain was activated to the maximum, and the three suns in the sky also released their own light.

"Is this your plan? If so, that's quite good." The Man of Light and Shadow stopped moving and said with a pleasant smile, "But didn't you just regain the emotions that disappeared under my influence? Now you're going to discard them again?"

"In that case, you'll completely revert to your old self and never be able to return to normal."

"Do you think I'm still the same person I was a year ago?" Lu Li said. "People are inherently constantly changing and improving themselves, aren't they? What is normal anyway? Does being normal mean having negative emotions and all sorts of desires?"

"I will relinquish my Pride and become the first star." As if making a declaration, Lu Li slashed his own soul. If he didn't want to be changed by others, then he would change himself. He was just a cheat code in the eyes of others, a stepping stone in their eyes. He was not special, therefore he had no Pride.

Lu Li's Pride was deliberately abandoned, merging with the Original Sin Array Diagram and the mask on it, transforming into the first star in the sky. The entire Dreamlands instantly became incredibly real, and Lu Li's control over it was even greatly enhanced, using this to repel the beings in the Man of Light and Shadow.

"I will relinquish my Envy and transform into a second star." This declaration caused Lu Li's soul to undergo a further transformation. Envy merged with the Original Sin Array Mask, transforming into a second star in the sky. What I want, I will take myself. One day, I will become the best. Why should I be Envy?

"I will relinquish my anger and transform it into a third star." All anger stems from dissatisfaction with oneself and others. I should just do my own thing; where does dissatisfaction come from?

"I will abandon my Sloth and transform into the fourth star." I pursue my own interests, and everything I do is for myself, so what reason is there for Sloth?

"I will relinquish my Greed and transform into the fifth star." Greed is excessively clinging to things that do not belong to oneself. What is mine is mine. Even if it is not mine now, it will certainly be mine in the future, so why should one covet it?

"I will relinquish my Gluttony and transform into the sixth star." Gluttony is the unrestrained enjoyment of food and other base desires. I pursue only my own pleasure, so where does Gluttony come from?

"I will relinquish my Lust and transform into the seventh star." Lust is an abnormal and excessive infatuation with others; I only love myself, so what use is Lust?

Lu Li's seven original sin emotions were all separated, his soul was completely Mutation, and he pushed away all the distortions of the Man of Light and Shadow.

Furthermore, since a part of himself Integration into the Dreamlands, transforming into the seven stars within it, the Dreamlands now resembles another body of his, allowing Lu Li to completely control anything within it, while also repelling anything that does not belong here.

Of course, the ceremony was not over yet, and Lu Li continued to change himself, "I will abandon my Hatred and become the first sun. Anyone who harbors Hatred will have a venomous scorpion grow in their heart."

"I will relinquish my Destruction and become a second sun. Anyone with a desire for Destruction will Destruction themselves and become a prisoner here."

"I will relinquish my fear and transform into a third sun. Fear will engulf this place, and those who cannot overcome their fear will ultimately be devoured by it and become the unknown."

As the three suns rose, the entire Dreamlands was finally restored to its complete state, and his special abilities were also confirmed. Lu Li seemed to have merged with the entire Dreamlands, where his existence was infinitely elevated.

The Man of Light and Shadow now just a memory entity; his actual strength is not that great. Previously, he could use the difference in perception to make Lu Li unable to resist.

Therefore, Lu Li stopped resisting. He changed himself into another form, splitting himself and merging with the Dreamlands, borrowing the power of the entire Dreamlands to make himself invincible.

I did not fully understand your existence, but now this whole area is under my control. I just need to exclude all the things I don't understand. So, the memory that wasn't very powerful to begin with gradually faded away from the Dreamlands.

"Not bad at all, my brother. It seems you really have the potential to grow." The Man of Light and Shadow didn't feel frustrated or angry. He hadn't planned to get involved in this matter in the first place, but he intervened because he saw such a good opportunity.

Now that opportunity is gone, the Man of Light and Shadow has suffered no loss. On the contrary, something reminds them of something that makes them feel very pleased. Before their form dissipates, they transmit some information, saying, "Then this is your reward for your successful rebellion. I look forward to meeting you again."

Once these things faded away, Lu Li's soul and the shadow completely merged, and he formed an even closer connection with the Dreamlands, to the point that Lu Li felt the Dreamlands was almost like another body of his.

The Candy House once again turned into a pebble, and the power of the River of Wisdom within it became more moderate. The Bronze Fruit completely shattered, turning into a cloud of bronze dust that drifted out of the Dreamlands. The unknown power completely disappeared. Ji Yue looked at the burning notebook in front of her, smiled, and shook her head.

The enormous, black, mud-like shadow writhed, and a figure rose from the black mud swamp. This figure's body was composed of constantly writhing shadows, and it didn't even have a human shape; it was just a mass of writhing tentacles.

Then the tentacles continued to wriggle and deform, first forming a skeleton, then filling in various internal organs and muscles, and finally turning into a shadowy figure, which is the state of the unknown culprit in the Conan manga.

He raised one of his umbrellas, shifted his body slightly, and then seemed to remember something. A golden pebble floated out from inside the umbrella, and some legendary elements were Extraction and attached to the shadowy figure.
