Miss Witch, it's time to clean up the entries

Chapter 367 Abel and the Seventeen Gifts
This time, when Li En returned to the rift, his condition was completely different from the last time.

Whether it was the Mist Wolf, the Ice Devouring Worm, or the once terrifying Alien Knight, they all became utterly vulnerable.

Whether it's the angels Sophie, Dorothy, Soraya, and Miriam, or the children of God, Rean and Jessica, they have all gained a deeper understanding of the rules.

By simply using the power of the rules, these monsters will be strangled by the designated rules when they get close.

From the Frost Layer to the Terrifying Forest, the journey was unimpeded. The flesh-and-blood giant trees that tried to resist them were directly absorbed by Soraya and became her nourishment.

As Li Encai continued his exploration downwards, he discovered that the crack was like an abyss, a supernatural structure that descended vertically, composed of countless layers. With each layer he descended, the environment became increasingly harsh, the laws of physics gradually distorted, and the crack was filled with unknown dangers and ancient secrets.

Each layer of the abyss has a unique ecosystem and physical rules. The upper layers are relatively safe, but the deeper you go, the thinner the oxygen becomes, and the abnormal gravity and time flow exist, including areas of mental pollution.

Previously, their exploration of the cracks was extremely limited.

From the first level of the rift to the thirtieth level, we actually saw a civilization-like existence.

This is the thirtieth floor, where even a six-star knight would find it difficult to breathe. The oxygen is thin, but there is a village here.

These houses were not any kind of buildings Sophie was familiar with; they were container houses, like boxes stacked together, with unfamiliar characters and codes on them.

Even for Lee En, this style of architecture was a bit too avant-garde, more like a base or refuge set up by astronauts in outer space.

The people living here also wear bulky spacesuits and oxygen tanks on their backs.

"Who are they?"

Jessica asked curiously.

"Just ask."

Miriam said.

"I didn't sense any life force; it might just be an illusion."

Dorothy said.

Sure enough, when the group approached, everyone was busy with their own things and seemed not to have noticed Li En and his group at all.

“It’s a projection.”

Li En found a projector still playing videos in the corner, pressed the switch, and the village and its people disappeared.

"Monster Box?"

Sophie tilted her head, examining the projector in Li En's hand.

She believes that the box swallowed all the houses and people inside.

"No, this is a projector, something that can create an image, similar to a recorder, recording what happened and then projecting it back."

Lee En explained.

"Like a memory magic crystal?"

Dorothy asked.

"Yes, almost."

Li En said that seeing the projector made him feel that he was not far from the Old World, at least proving that it was something left behind by the humans of the previous civilization.

Suddenly, Li En's [Gift Radar] entry started to react, proving that a gift existed not far from here.

"The fallen angel Abel is very likely here."

Li En reminded everyone.

"Abel is here?"

Jessica frowned slightly.

Although she lived in the Northern Continent, she knew of the Fallen Angel Abel, also known as the Goddess of Sowing, who was a true evil god. She would plant seeds in every believer, and the children born from those believers would not be their own, but evil monsters.

Legend has it that He was the most rebellious angel of the god Tiger, and the most evil being.

"Oh, my old friend has arrived? I can smell Tiger on you."

Suddenly, a woman's gentle and alluring voice rang out from the crack.

Li En narrowed his eyes. "Abel, do you think you can hide here and not be discovered?"

"Oh, it's you, Lyon Moria."

The voice suddenly turned cold.

“Abel, there’s no point in hiding.”

Li En waved his arm, and the mist in the crack dissipated, revealing Abel's body.

Abel used all his gifts to piece together the body of a god, and then he entered it.

The [Divine Mask], which grants temporary access to divine power, is located on the cheeks.

The "Eye of the Future" can be chosen as the left eye, allowing one to see certain key moments in the past and travel back in time to influence the future by changing the past. The "Eye of the Past" can be chosen as the right eye.

The left ear is the "foolish ear" that can make people ignorant, while the right ear is the "wise ear" that can make people wise.

The [Bone Horn], which can increase the combat power of all friendly forces by 2 times, is located on the bridge of the nose.

The left hand is the "Hand of God," which can devour divinity and resurrect the dead, while the right hand is the "Ripper," which creates the heartless.

The body is composed of the "Guardian Shield," which can withstand all attacks and form a powerful shield.

The cells are the [Split Seals] that can create countless clones, and the minds are the [Fairy Tale Books] and [Canvases] that can write stories.

The [House of Happiness], capable of creating independent spaces and fulfilling all the wishes of its owner, is the lung; the [Beating Heart], capable of controlling any heart, is the heart; the [Hourglass of Time], capable of traversing time and space, is the liver; the [Azure Dragon Whip], capable of continuously procreating dragon offspring, is the kidney; and the [Gate], capable of creating hellish rifts and even transforming people into gates to hell, summoning countless hellish monsters, is the spleen.

Abel's body resembled a forcibly sewn-up sacred remains, creating a sense of incongruity that was both holy and blasphemous. Ordinary people would be severely contaminated simply by looking at it, and even Li En, Jessica, and the angels could not help but feel a strong sense of unease.

“Oh, Lyon Moriah, you really surprise me, you’ve brought four angels with you.”

Abel looked at the angels around Lee En in surprise.

The angel of time and change, Miriam, spread her snow-white wings, which were covered with totems of time.

Sophie, the angel of natural disasters and calamities, had a calm and serene expression, making it impossible to discern her thoughts.

Dorothy, the angel of fairy tales and life, looked coldly at Abel. "You should give me back my fairy tale book."

Soraya, the angel of wealth and fortune, was slightly surprised, as she sensed a powerful aura of pollution.

Although Jessica is not an angel, she is Dani's chosen one, and she is barely able to resist this spiritual pollution when facing Abel.

“Perfect timing. I’ve run into some problems on my path to godhood. If I can absorb the power of these four angels, perhaps I can make up for this deficiency.”

Abel gave a cold laugh and then launched an attack on the group.

The crack trembled under divine power, and the seventeen gifts on Abel's body awakened simultaneously.

Dark red ripples appeared in His [Past Eye] right eye, and the world projected by the projector became real. The strange village reappeared on the earth, and the coded text on the surface of the container suddenly came to life, burrowing into the ground like horsehair worms.

"Beware of text pollution!" Dorothy spread her emerald wings, and life force condensed into a semi-transparent protective shield in the air. The writhing text crashed into the shield, producing a piercing sound like fingernails scraping a blackboard.

Miriam's silver pocket watch floated in the air, and the numbers on the dial all turned into wriggling tentacles.

"Anchor of Time, locked."

As the cool chanting began, the pocket watch emitted a spiderweb-like shimmering silver light.

But Abel's [Hourglass of Time] liver suddenly reversed, and the silver threads twisted strangely three meters away from his body.

"Time. It is broken around Him!" Blood trickled from the corner of Miriam's mouth.

Lee En saw dozens of fine wounds suddenly appear on Jessica's left arm—dimensional cuts caused by the time turbulence.

Sophie's wings suddenly turned a scorched purple, and countless burning cracks appeared between her wing bones—the power of natural disaster manifested as a meteor shower rising in reverse.

The meteorites, trailing eerie purple flames, pierced Abel like reversed swords of judgment.

However, ripples appeared on the surface of the [Guardian Shield], and the meteorite that fell into it turned into runes that moved across the shield's surface, gradually dimming as if being digested.

Even more terrifying were the purple flames that flowed across the shield's surface, eventually converging into the bridge of the [Bone Horn]'s nose.

"Giggle giggle," Abel let out a cacophony of laughter from men, women, and children, and the [Ear of Ignorance] suddenly swelled to three times its original size.

Soraya's newly formed golden spear suddenly softened, turning into a hissing golden snake that lunged back at her.

Green vines extended from Dorothy's hands, but the [Azure Dragon Whip]'s kidneys sprayed out a dark yellow liquid, and the vines instantly mutated into ever-proliferating fleshy tentacles. Blurred human faces appeared on the surface of those tumors, emitting cries like those of an infant.

"My creation has been tainted?" Dorothy's pure white skirt suddenly blew out ink-like stains.

Abel's Splitting Seal cells began to go berserk, and those tumorous tentacles split into thousands of replicas.

Soraya's jeweled cage trapped Abel at the crucial moment, but the [beating heart] suddenly roared like a drum.

All the rubies instantly transformed into pulsating flesh and blood, and the cage bars turned into stark white ribs that contracted inward. A bone spur pierced Soraya's wings, and pale golden divine blood condensed into floating droplets in the weightless environment.

Abel's "fairy tale" thinking is distorting the logic of reality, and the container ruins are beginning to reassemble like building blocks, piecing together a huge church of flesh and blood.

Miriam suddenly tore off a page of her own wing, and burning time runes formed a Möbius strip.

"Time loop closed!" The silver ring wrapped around Abel's waist, and for the first time, those gifted organs twitched uncoordinatedly.

The [Divine Mask] suddenly turned in the wrong direction, and the [Eye of the Future] and the [Eye of the Past] each looked towards different times and spaces.

Sophie seized this fleeting opportunity, and her Wings of Calamity fully unfolded into a six-pointed star array. The dome of the Thirty-Layer Abyss cracked open, revealing a distorted starry sky.

But Abel's [Gate] spleen suddenly swelled, and countless black arms covered with eyeballs poured out of the crack, dragging all the falling stars into the abyss.

"He is devouring natural disasters with the abyss!" Soraya inverted the golden chalice on the ground, the liquid wealth power forming a mirror.

Abel's reflection in the mirror suddenly moved independently, tearing at his body with the "Ripper" of his shadow.

However, the "canvas" concept directly transforms the mirror into a two-dimensional plane, turning the reflection into a bizarre oil painting.

Dorothy plunged her scepter of life into her own chest, and her emerald blood poured onto the mutated vines.

The wailing faces suddenly fell silent, and pure white flowers bloomed.

Amidst the fragrance of flowers, Abel's [Dividing Seal] cells began to stagnate for the first time.

Having watched the entire process unfold, Li En finally seized upon Abel's weakness, and the phantom of his divine essence slowly emerged.
“Now!”

Sophie, Dorothy, Soraya, and Miriam's bodies merged into Li En's divine phantom.

The wings of the four angels simultaneously disintegrated into light dust—Sophie's calamity purple flames, Dorothy's emerald vine patterns, Soraya's golden starlight, and Miriam's silver timelines—these marks of power entwined the phantom of divinity as if they were living things.

The phantom instantly solidified, transforming into a colossal statue with four overlapping wings.

Li En raised his sword, and God also raised his sword.

boom--

With a sound like a crack almost tearing apart, Abel's true form was struck by the Divine Sword.

"How... is that possible?"

Abel's body was like a glass statue that had been internally shattered—the [Divine Mask] cracked first, revealing the empty darkness behind it; the pages of the [Fairy Tale Book] burst forth from his thoughts, fluttering in the air.

When the sword of divinity pierced through completely, each of His fragments struggled to reform during its fall, but was ultimately torn to dust by the backlash of the gift.

Those immortal and indestructible gifts fell and dropped into the endless void.

"Catch them."

Li En gave the order.

The power of the rules picked up these fallen gifts one by one and made them float in front of everyone.

All seventeen blessed items are intact except for the [Divine Mask].

Li En tossed out the Gift Crystal in his hand, which merged with the Divine Mask, repairing the gift.

“Jessica, a god’s body cannot be shared, otherwise it will turn into a corrupt monster like Abel, who will take away what Dani needs.”

Lee En said to Jessica.

Jessica was still reeling from the divine battle she had just witnessed.

She never expected that Li En would have grown to this extent in just three months.

Three months ago, she could hold her own against Lee Eun, but now she can't do it at all.

"You...are you really willing to give it to me for free?"

Jessica asked tentatively.

“Everything comes at a price, nothing is free. I resurrected Dani to make him my ally.”

Lee looked at Jessica, "And this requires your help."

"I see."

Jessica nodded; she decided to take the gift that belonged to Dani.

Jessica has taken the five gifts: the Guardian Shield, the Bone Horn, the Hourglass of Time, the Seal of Split, and the Canvas. In addition, she has the Mouth of Blasphemy, which retains a part of Dani's will. She can now attempt to summon the great god Dani.

The items [Fairy Tale Book], [Ear of Wisdom], [Ear of Foolishness], [Eye of the Past], [Eye of the Future], [Hand of God], [Ripper], [Whip of the Azure Dragon], [House of Happiness], and [Door] belong to Mohan. To resurrect Mohan, one of Mohan's followers is needed.

Li En has already embarked on the path to godhood; it is impossible for him to be both Tiger and Mohan's chosen one at the same time.

The same goes for Jessica; it's better to let her die than to make her change her faith.

Furthermore, to revive Mohan, the crucial [Bewitching Mouth] is still needed.

"Randall, it seems you still had a backup plan. You're truly a troublesome opponent, even in death."
