Eternal Night

Chapter 461 The Seven Deadly Sins of Life

This might be the most dangerous time for Wu Xianxiao since he achieved success. Before this time, when facing any enemy, he at least dared to say that both sides could suffer losses, even if he himself would die, but at least he was not cowardly.

However, facing the lustful erosion this time, he didn't even have a specific enemy. The erosion alone almost killed him. No... death might be a relief. He had a premonition that if he was really completely eroded by lust, he might not even be able to die.

Wu Xianxiao sat there in fear for at least ten seconds before he stood up and walked towards Samara and the others.

Everyone was a little frightened, but when they saw Wu Xianxiao's steady steps, the fear in their hearts gradually subsided. After Wu Xianxiao came in front of everyone, he asked directly: "How many people have left the city?"

Samara looked at the city with a panic on his face. There were flames everywhere in the city, but the flames were strangely pink. He did not dare to look at them any more and immediately replied to Wu Xianxiao: "There may be one or two thousand people. It is so dark that I am not sure... Can they be saved?"

Wu Xianxiao shook his head and looked towards the city. He then said, "It's not safe here. Let's continue to move away from the city... Let's go to the surrounding cities first, but we can't stay here for long. This place will soon become a Jedi."

"Jedi?" Samara said immediately, "Jedi like those in the Imperial Territory?"

Wu Xianxiao nodded. As he walked away from the city, he spread Beelzebub out in his hands and said, "You just said you remembered... Tell me about it."

Beelzebub seemed to be still in shock, and she immediately said, "Pride, envy, wrath, laziness, greed, gluttony, and lust are the seven deadly sins of the seven towers. They also represent the seven demon kings of hell in the Bible. You know this, right?"

Wu Xianxiao nodded, and Beelzebub continued: "Including me, these are actually seven roots. I am not sure about the specific root, but it is estimated that they have been lost. And these seven are not just our symbolic meaning, nor are they simple emotions, but the seven sins of life!"

"The seven deadly sins of life?" Wu Xianxiao murmured.

"Yes!" Beelzebub said affirmatively, "These represent the seven extreme changes of life. I haven't remembered the details yet, but this is the source of power for the civilization I belong to. It is also the extraordinary power system of my civilization after it fell from reality. However, as it fell into illusion and was eroded by the source of pollution, terrifying changes occurred."

"Lust does not simply represent passion, pornography, or reproduction, but rather the conceptual infinite cycle of self-satisfaction and dissatisfaction. Regardless of satisfaction or dissatisfaction, it ultimately points to the origin of lust, which is the original sin of lust among the seven deadly sins of life!"

Wu Xianxiao was shocked when he heard this.

This description is simply awesome. Listen, an endless cycle of self-satisfaction and dissatisfaction. No wonder when he is eroded, no matter he restrains himself or not, it will lead to the cumulative erosion of lust. This is already terrifying on the conceptual level!

Beelzebub even said: "Moreover, these are the seven deadly sins of life. As long as there is life, it will be corroded, without exception!"

Wu Xianxiao was silent for a long time before he asked, "I killed them... those succubus transformed bodies, including Yaoyao, because they have been completely corrupted, but I feel that I didn't kill them, they still exist in that lust."

Beelzebub said again: "You are right. It is not just lust. The original purpose of the seven deadly sins of life is to sublimate life in order to fight against the erosion of pollution sources. I remember some of them, but not many. There are only very few one-sided pictures. The civilization where my body is located was also a technological civilization at the beginning, but when technology developed to the singularity level, it took the path of emotional embodiment and emotional energy. After being eroded by pollution, the extraordinary things derived from it are also related to this. In the process of saving my civilization, the seven deadly sins of life are seven sublimation paths. This is not just the sublimation of the body, but the sublimation of the essence of life..."

"How should I describe it? It's similar to the Gaia civilization you're in now. Technology continues to advance to reach a level of collective dimensionality. These lives that are eroded by lust have already 'sublimated' their life levels. They belong to lustful lives. Ordinary methods cannot kill them. Even your title cannot do it, because you can only kill a part of them at a time. Unless your power becomes many times stronger than it is now, otherwise... they are entangled and become parts of each other. You can't kill them!"

Wu Xianxiao pondered silently. He felt that these lives that had been transformed by lust were similar to the essence of the subspace in the Warhammer dream world. They were both individuals and collectives, and had become something that he could not touch yet.

"Is there any way to kill them?" Wu Xianxiao asked expressionlessly.

"I don't know..." Beelzebub said in a low voice, then she paused and said: "I don't know now, because my memory is not complete. I can only know it when I see it."

"...You'll know it only after you've seen it. I understand." Wu Xianxiao was silent for a while, and suddenly he said to Samara: "Now let's quickly integrate all the city-states in the grassland, plus the kingdom forces that are about to collapse. I can fight in every battle. How long will it take you?"

Samara pondered for more than ten seconds, thinking about various situations, and then said: "The initial integration will take no more than half a month. We can integrate wherever we go. There is no need to worry about the grassland city-states. They are our helpers. The kingdom is also simple. I can kill those who need to be killed and collect those who need to be collected. As long as the saints have enough combat power, all will not be a problem. But...what about the seven towers? This is not a force we can fight against."

Wu Xianxiao was speechless for a moment. Unexpectedly, Beelzebub said, "Don't worry. The Seven Sins of Life are not so easy to control. If it is me or the other six monarchs, we can control them naturally. The sublimated bodies derived from our roots can probably control part of them, but this world does not allow sublimated bodies to exist. So I can guarantee that those who want to use the power of the Seven Sins of Life have already been eroded. There are few of them and they cannot act freely. This is them. So after you integrate them, go to a remote place and send more reconnaissance sentries. And I have another idea..."

"The forces of belief in gods in this empire, kingdom, and city-state have existed for a long time. Maybe the belief in gods also has its true nature?"

Samara nodded slightly, and Wu Xianxiao said, "Okay, integrate all of this as quickly as possible, and then you lead them to the depths of the grassland, or to another safe place to hide."

"Saint, what about you?" Samara asked immediately.

Wu Xianxiao said decisively: "I want to go to the imperial territory, to the forbidden area of ​​gluttony!"

Whether it was stubbornness, some kind of resentment, or some kind of guilt, there was a fire rising in Wu Xianxiao's heart. He couldn't let go of Yaoyao and just indulged in lust!

Everyone was silent as they transported the God of Natural Purity all the way to the nearest city. Then Samara issued an administrative order, requiring all personnel from the city-states of the God of Natural Purity Federation to relocate. At the same time, Wu Xianxiao acted alone, holding a map and bringing three small animals to begin clearing out the various gods from the city-states on the grassland.

The rules of the land of gods' faith are very simple. Without gods, there will be no supernatural powers. So as long as Wu Xianxiao kills all the gods of these city-states, these city-states will lose their core power in a short period of time. And no matter how totem god the God of Natural Purity is, at least the divine domain can be deployed. With the blessing of the divine domain, an ordinary person can easily chop down two or three ordinary people of the same level, and Samara can deal with the rest by himself.

From that day on, Wu Xianxiao killed his way out of the grassland. All the city-states were immediately in trouble. Their city gates or walls were directly broken by unknown life forms. Then within a few minutes, they heard the gods they believed in howling and dying in a miserable way. Then, the Samara army arrived a few days later and challenged them. Once the domain of the God of Natural Purity was covered, they had no choice but to surrender.

Just like this, Wu Xianxiao killed his way out and almost cleared out all the gods of the city-states on the grassland. About ten days later, he arrived at the border of the grassland. From here on, it became a mixed area with mountains, rivers, plains, hills, jungles and other areas. The few city-states on the outermost edge of the grassland were also occupied by the kingdom's army. Wu Xianxiao was a human being, tall and strong, but there were also tall and strong people in the kingdom's army, so he could easily blend in.

The kingdom's army was obviously in great chaos, with multiple armies under different commands mixed together. According to the information perceived by Wu Xianxian's super brain, six of the seven kingdoms had been lost, and the remaining kingdom was also in a panic, having almost mobilized the entire kingdom's manpower and resources to retreat to the grassland. At the same time, the remaining forces of the remaining countries that had already perished had also joined this only kingdom. This certainly increased the kingdom's military strength and manpower, but it also brought extremely terrible chaos and logistical pressure.

Fortunately, this was the time of retreat and escape, so no internal strife occurred.

From the information perceived by Wu Xianxiao, the god of this remnant kingdom is a human-shaped god, known as the Great Prophet, and the divine skill he possesses is prophecy. He is currently in the capital of the kingdom, but will rush to the entrance of the grassland as soon as possible and preside over the retreat plan for the attack on the grassland.

With this information as a guide, Wu Xianxiao naturally did not need to search any further. He got a map from the kingdom commander and continued to rush deeper into the kingdom. Along the way, he saw surging crowds and armies carrying food, supplies, and livestock to the grassland. With these people around, he would not get lost under his emotional perception. Then, he confirmed the existence of the kingdom's gods in a fortress.

Wu Xianxiao had nothing to hide, even though it was daytime, so he kicked down the fortress gate and strode straight towards the chapel where the gods were.

This naturally triggered a reaction and siege from the surrounding soldiers, but before they could make more attacking moves, an old man with a white beard and divine aura came out.

This was an old man with a white beard and wearing a white magic robe. He was about two meters and five centimeters tall, which was also the characteristic of a humanoid god. When he appeared, he was shining with holy light and looked very cool. When Wu Xianxiao was about to step forward and slap him, the old man with a white beard laughed, and then knelt down with a bang in the staring eyes of everyone around him.

"Saint, please don't hit me! I'm kneeling! I'm really kneeling!!"
