I, Lord of Prayer

Liushan Prison. (-_-) (-_-)

Forbidden Item B-022: The Crimson Full Moon hangs silently in the night sky, its eerie and ominous blood-red moonlight casting a crimson hue over everything, as if it were drowning in a sea of ​​blood.

Dupu was feeding the "sin beast" with his own blood. The corners of his mouth slowly turned up, revealing a strange and manic expression. He was uncontrollably affected by the ritual and became less clear-headed and rational.

This is exactly the scene Zhou Chen saw during the divination!

As soon as they appeared, Dupu's men, whom he had brought from the City of Sin, immediately launched an attack. One of them, a fourth-tier member, let out a loud shout and suddenly swelled up, transforming into a muscular giant five or six meters tall. His skin was covered with a layer of matte gray, which turned into some kind of strange supernatural substance.

Many of the fourth-tier uncrowned individuals under Dupu's command are power-type ascendants, because these ascendants are the easiest to cultivate. They only need to continuously invest resources, and with a little talent, they can advance to the fourth tier. However, the drawbacks are also obvious: they are basically all power, but have shortcomings in other aspects.

A strange light shone in Marvin's eyes, and "Endless Pleasure" was activated. The gray-skinned muscular giant froze on the spot, his inner rage and anger continuously transforming into extreme pleasure, pulling his soul into the abyss of ecstasy.

With the last shred of his sanity, the muscular giant pounded his chest, producing a muffled thud. However, the excruciating pain did not pull him out of the vortex of ecstasy; instead, it transformed into an even more intense pleasure.

Marvin made a grabbing motion in the air, and a pair of enormous, rotting hands appeared out of thin air, tightly gripping the muscular giant and continuously contracting. The rotting giant hands flowed with blood and pus, possessing a strong corrosive ability. With a hissing sound, foul-smelling white smoke rose, and large patches of flesh were corroded away from the muscular giant's gray skin.

"Ah!" The muscular giant roared, the sound waves spreading outwards, shattering his rotting hand into dust. His eyes quickly became bloodshot, and he used some kind of mental secret technique to seal his mind, deliberately turning himself into a mindless beast!

Thump thump thump!

The flesh-and-blood giant charged forward, each step causing the earth to tremble violently. Its speed was so great that Marvin could only hastily create distance and then cast an ice spell to slow down the giant, preparing to engage in a guerrilla war of attrition.

Meanwhile, Zhou Chen's side also came under attack from the enemy.

Dozens of Tier 3 Ascended fully armed attacked. Their equipment was extremely luxurious, including helmets, breastplates, arm guards, swords, shields, and firearms. They were armed to the teeth with high-level alchemical equipment, and their source energy flowed and converged into a raging storm.

But when they raised their swords, spears, halberds, and cannons, ready to blast Zhou Chen, this fool who didn't know his own mortality, into dust, their movements suddenly stopped, and they froze in place, unable to move an inch.

A fear originating from the depths of their souls descended upon them; their souls screamed in terror, their brains trembled wildly, every cell in their bodies shuddered and howled, and their flesh and blood seemed to possess a self-awareness, writhing in all directions, trying to escape from this place.

A strong premonition rose within them, telling them—

—The end has come!

A cold, blazing white ring of fire condensed behind Zhou Chen's head. Flames ignited, and viscous white liquid dripped down, melting the ground and creating pits. His entire body turned into a lifeless, withered, pale white, covered with exaggerated ancient fire patterns, exuding an indescribable eeriness, as if he had become death itself. Yet, within this eeriness and coldness, there was also a strange kind of holiness.

So solemn.

—The spirit of the end reappears here!

Zhou Chen raised his eyes indifferently, conjuring a cold, austere longsword shrouded in decay and deathly grayness, and silently swung it forward.

A deathly cold light flashed by.

In the silence, without a sound, the expensive alchemical weapons seemed to have endured thousands of years of wind and frost in an instant, becoming rusty and the engraved alchemical matrix collapsed inch by inch. The extraordinary alloy, forged through countless processes, rusted into tofu dregs that crumbled at the slightest touch, and the people inside silently turned into skeletons, shattered into dust.

Having reached his current level, Zhou Chen's mastery of controllable abyss transformation has reached a new level. After transforming into the Spirit of the End, a symbol of destruction and death, he can unleash power that is infinitely close to the fourth rank by mobilizing the power of the Necronomicon. If he is further aided by extraordinary items such as the Wishing Bottle and the Forging Hammer, he has the absolute ability to fight against a fourth-rank opponent.

Upon seeing this, Du Pu's female secretary, Yue Xiao, immediately threw over a fist-sized circular device. Zhou Chen slashed it with his sword, and the device decayed into ashes. However, the matrix built inside had already been activated. A cloud of black mist exploded, turning into twisted and evil characters that were deeply imprinted in the space, solidifying this space and preventing outsiders from approaching.

Zhou Chen remained indifferent and unmoved. The Necronomicon recorded such spells, as well as methods to break them—born at the deepest level of the abyss, the Necronomicon was like an encyclopedia of the abyss, and most spells could be found within it.

He raised his palm and waved it at the Abyss script imprint. The calamity of the abyss transformed into an invisible wind that swept out, instantly erasing the invisible Abyss script and restoring the space to normal.

"Wow!"

Just then, a baby's cry rang out.

Even Zhou Chen, in his final, spirit-of-the-end state, was so shocked by the sound that his vision blurred, and he nearly lost control of the abyssal power within him. ♡💗 ❻❾s𝓗𝕦𝔵.ςＯ𝐦 🏆💎

Arms and legs uncontrollably transformed into sticky, wriggling, pale tentacles, while the surrounding soil and dust in the air, under the influence of pollution, distorted into chunks of flesh, upon which pairs of eyes filled with resentment and venom opened.

The "Sin Beast" cried out in hunger. It had grown to the size of a three-year-old child, and its strength was constantly increasing. The larger its body grew, the stronger the hunger in its belly became, until it could no longer endure it.

The ball of light, formed from the combined spirits and flesh of good and evil, had completely transformed into a crystal-clear black. The "Sin Beast" reached out and tried to grab the black ball of light; anyone could feel its desire for food and its endless greed.

"Here you go." Dupu guided the ball of dark light closer, and once it reached a certain distance, the "Sin Beast" was finally able to reach it. It eagerly grabbed it and devoured it, accompanied by a series of chilling chewing sounds.

With each bite, the "sin beast" grew larger, and soon it became a seven or eight-year-old child, whose innocent face was exactly the same as Dupu's!

Zhou Chen stared at Du Pu's manic smile, the contents of the awakening ritual flashed through his mind, and with further speculation, an extremely crazy plan quickly surfaced.

"You want to replace that evil god?" Zhou Chen questioned.

As Dupu watched the "Sin Beast" grow wildly, his expression grew increasingly fanatical and joyful. His eyes burned with a fiery intensity, brimming with arrogant ambition: "Since this world cannot contain my ambition, then I will find another world. Mere Divine Scroll Masters have never been what I desire. I, Dupu, will never become anyone's slave, nor will I ever stoop to serve anything!"

The Divine Scroll Master?

Dupp had always scorned that kind of identity.

He never intended to obediently become a follower of some evil god. Since he was already prepared to fall into hell, why not go all out and replace that evil god?!

At that time, he will be a god!

Years ago, after learning about the ritual from the "ghost," he began making preparations in secret to leave himself a way out. He actually had many such ways out, but this was the one he particularly cherished.

To replace the demigods of the abyss—what arrogance and blasphemy!

Having acquired that power, what great feats could he accomplish in the abyss?

No other way out can compare to this one. If the plan succeeds, he can replace that abyss demigod and ascend to the heavens in one leap.

"You're being a bit delusional. A demigod isn't someone a fourth-tier being can easily fool," Zhou Chen sneered, swinging the Sword of the End.

"I, Thupo, never do anything I'm not confident about. Altering rituals and taking their place—it's not like no one's never done it before; many have succeeded. I, Thupo, have no reason to fail!"

Dupu raised his hand and crushed the cold sword light with his bare hands. The flesh in his palm began to wither and decay rapidly, but it quickly recovered under his powerful self-healing ability.

He looked at the healed flesh and blood in his palm, slightly surprised, and narrowed his eyes: "What a spirit of the end... If I kill you and obtain the 'Book of Necromancers,' perhaps I can step into the forbidden zone of the gods..."

"You can give it a try." Zhou Chen then chanted an evil abyss incantation, and a power of death and decay spread rapidly outwards from him, leaving nothing but barren land and decaying everything in its path.

—The Realm of the End!

In this lifeless place, all skills related to the end, death, and destruction will be greatly enhanced, but at the cost of the next fifty years, when nothing will grow here and no life can survive.

"Yuexiao, stop him."

Dupp gave an order to his secretary, but that one sentence made both him and Zhou Chen realize that something was wrong.

Yue Xiao, who was just there a moment ago, has suddenly disappeared!

Where is she?! Zhou Chen suddenly realized that if Du Pu hadn't brought it up, he wouldn't have noticed Yue Xiao's disappearance at all.

You should know that Dupu doesn't have many subordinates left. Yuexiao was standing right next to Dupu just now, so there was no way he wouldn't have noticed her. But for some reason, he just didn't realize that Yuexiao had disappeared.

Not only him, but even Dupu himself did not notice that Yuexiao had disappeared. Just as his doubts were growing, a cold dagger pierced his heart from behind, and a vicious curse turned into a venomous snake that coiled around him.

Dupu suddenly turned around and saw Yuexiao's face dissolving, turning into another woman's appearance!

This is a fake Yue Xiao!

Dupu's mind raced with various thoughts: Where did the real Yuexiao go? When was she replaced? Was it in Sin City, before this operation, or even earlier?

Dupp stared at the other person with wide eyes in shock and anger, and then a memory that had long been erased from his mind resurfaced.

"you……"

"It's you!"

The woman was very beautiful, extremely beautiful. Her features, whether taken individually or combined, were like a perfect masterpiece of God. She exuded a pure, clean, and alluring charm, but her eyes were extremely cold, as if she were looking at ants on the ground.

In the distance, Zhou Chen also saw the woman's face, and his heart sank.

He didn't recognize the woman, but he could clearly see that she looked somewhat like Sasha; she was clearly Sasha grown up!

At that very moment, once her true appearance was revealed, the hidden memes imposed on the woman were released, and news, files, memories... personal data that she had hidden and erased decades ago reappeared worldwide.

Life Church.

The high-ranking officials felt the memories resurfacing in their minds, their expressions extremely complex.

"So the 'ghost' was her."

·

"Hua Manzhu!"

! "

Dupp roared.

The woman named Hua Manzhu didn't linger with him, nor did she kill him; instead, she threw him out of the ritual array.

Hua Manzhu took out a pure white gem and placed it on the head of the "Sin Beast". Strands of blood were absorbed, and the pure white gem gradually turned scarlet. The appearance of the "Sin Beast" also changed from Dupu's face to something unrecognizable, and the connection was severed.

Then, she casually threw away the gem and took out a scarlet gem filled with her own blood, placing it on the head of the "Sin Beast." The scarlet color in the gem disappeared at a visible speed, flowing into the "Sin Beast's" body. The "Sin Beast's" appearance and size changed accordingly, transforming it into a girl.

Zhou Chen could clearly see that it was Sasha's face. As the "Sin Beast" grew rapidly, that face became more and more mature.

The "Sin Beast" quickly devoured the offerings, and its appearance changed from that of a child to that of an adult, just like Hua Manzhu. The two were practically identical, as if they had been carved from the same mold.

"You've been plotting against me all along!" Dupu roared madly as he was thrown out of the ritual array. His heart was pierced by a cursed blade, rendering him unable to move and causing his life to drain away rapidly.

At that moment, he felt like a clown, not only having been thoroughly outmaneuvered but also having benefited others.

The "ghost" probably started plotting against him from their very first encounter!

In the past, it was always Dupu who schemed against others, never the other way around. But now, at the most crucial moment, he was outmaneuvered, causing all his efforts to go to waste and his prepared escape route to be taken over by others. This made him furious and enraged.

"Sasha," Zhou Chen called out in a deep voice.

Hua Manzhu looked over and revealed a naive and sweet smile:

"Hello, Brother Zhou Chen."

Zhou Chen remained expressionless, but his heart sank.

Seeing his somber expression, Hua Manzhu's smile immediately brightened; seeing others sad was a very pleasant thing for her.
