What if you ascend to the wrong world?

Although it has been abandoned for a long time, it has not been affected by the power of 'lust', and that is enough.

squeak~

With a piercing sound, the church's half-open, rickety door was pushed open.

Thick fog filled the interior of the church, pews were scattered and broken into several pieces, and the floor was a mess.

The statues at the innermost part of the church were blurred in the thick fog, which made the already dark and oppressive church even more eerie.

Ye Tu remained expressionless as he walked through most of the church and arrived at the statue at the innermost part of the church.

Perhaps because it had been neglected for too long, the accumulated dust was soaked by the mist, forming mottled stains all over the statue, making it look somewhat ferocious.

But soon!

A supreme and holy will, like the source of light, descended through the statue.

An invisible storm swept in all directions, instantly dispersing the thick fog that filled the church, and the stains clinging to the statues also peeled off automatically.

In the blink of an eye, the entire statue was spotless, and a pure, holy light shone from the statue's forehead, slowly drifting towards the ground.

A blurry human silhouette emerged from the light.

In just a few seconds, a stunningly beautiful figure, radiant with beauty that seemed to symbolize all that is 'sacred' and 'beautiful' in the world, floated down to the ground.

Instead of the previous glamorous outfits, he wore a simple and clean white robe.

Her blonde hair cascaded down to her waist, and her skin was delicate and fair, as white as snow.

Her pale golden eyes shone like morning stars, as if they were jewels.

It is the Goddess of Light!

For a supreme God who unifies a single concept, all idols can serve as a medium to guide the descent of incarnations.

Even a statue in an abandoned church that has lost its religious offerings.

As for the blockade of the Astral Magic Network?

It was forged under His guidance; He possesses the highest authority and can enter and exit at any time.

He smiled faintly as he looked at Ye Tu:

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

She considered it a perfect entrance.

However, Ye Tu merely glanced at him up and down, seemingly somewhat surprised:

"Your avatar is unaffected by the corruption of the ancient gods?"

Ok.

Before her avatar descended, she had considered many things Ye Tu might say, but she never expected him to ask this question.

After a long silence:

"……Yes."

If even her incarnation is affected, how could she have just appeared like this?

At the very least, add two more layers of light so that others can't see your true appearance.

"The effects of the ancient god's contamination only apply to my true self."

The emanation is merely a vessel constructed by the true deity for traversing the world; its form is entirely determined by the true deity.

"Why do you ask this?" The Goddess of Light asked warily.

He had always thought that Ye Tu wouldn't care about these things, and that his current form or the form corrupted by the ancient gods would make no difference to him.

It would be strange if I showed that I cared, so I didn't use holy light to cover myself during our next two meetings.

But he's asking this all of a sudden now, could it be...?

I guess I was just misunderstanding things before.

"Just out of curiosity."

Is it really just curiosity?

"..."

Not wanting to dwell on the topic any longer, the Goddess of Light turned her head to look at the very center of the village.

By this time, Lorne had finished resting, extinguished the campfire, and was preparing to set off with the gaunt figure who didn't even have a name.

“That 'eye'…”

That eye was originally just a product of the transformation of immortality. Although it possessed some magical characteristics, the little guy could not control it, much less utilize its mysteries.

But Ye Tu's single pill transformed this cumbersome mutation into a remarkable ability.

With this ability, he could gain a certain advantage in battles against other extraordinary professionals of the same level, even before reaching the level of demigod.

Why did you do that?

"There's no reason why." Ye Tu shook his head slightly.

"If I run into someone like that, I'll lend them a hand."

Meeting is fate.

After leaving the Dawn Empire, he had not paid any attention to Lorne's whereabouts.

In other words, this encounter was completely accidental.

It's a kind of fate.

Besides...

Even though he was on the run himself, he was still willing to spare some of his energy to help people in distress.

Ye Tu appreciates this point.

"Let's go, let's leave here first and go check out the situation."

"Go now?" The Goddess of Light frowned slightly. "Isn't it a bit too early?"

Given Ye Tu's current situation, the later he comes into contact with other authorities, the better.

After all, he had only recently taken over the power of greed.

"I won't go directly there; I'll just take a look from a distance nearby."

With that, Ye Tu walked outside.

"It will also make some arrangements to prevent the Holy Maiden from barging in without our knowledge."

The Goddess of Light hesitated for a moment, then followed.

"She probably doesn't have that ability."

The saintess sent by the church was merely a third-tier extraordinary professional.

It wouldn't be so bad as to secretly break into the corrupted Church of Light without their knowledge.

"She doesn't have that ability, but what if she has the influence of an ancient god?"

If this world is truly a giant script, how could the ancient gods, as the 'artists,' possibly stand by and watch them ruin the storyline they have arranged?

Although it sounds a bit ridiculous.

But considering past events, it's not necessarily true...

Before long, the two arrived outside the church.

The fog was still very thick, and the whole sky was a hazy gray.

"By the way, how should I address you from now on?" Ye Tu suddenly asked.

"Ok?"

"Am I supposed to address you as Lady of Radiance in front of your saintess?"

If you really call her that, the little saintess will probably fight you to the death.

Chapter 97 This Realm Also Has Calamities

What should I call you...?

“Lucia,” the Goddess of Light said solemnly.

"You can call me by this name."

"This is the name I used before I became a god."

Not yet before becoming a god?

Ye Tu was somewhat surprised:

"So you ascended to godhood from among the human?"

"...Is there a problem?" Lucia frowned slightly.

She never said she wasn't human.

"I misunderstood."

He had always thought that the Goddess of Light...Lucia was a naturally born holy spirit, or a deity created by the combined faith of all living beings in the world.

"Let me ask you another question: Do you think you are still the same person you were at the beginning?"

"No."

Having gone through so much to get to where I am today, how could I still be the same naive person I was at the beginning?

“But I will always be me,” she added.

Ye Tu's expression became somewhat subtle.

You should know that the gods in his original world only held power.

If one truly aligns oneself with authority and transforms oneself into a symbol of concepts, one will lose one's 'self' and become a slave to the Tao.

In this world, Luxia ascended from human to god, unifying the concept of 'light' and becoming almost a symbol of this concept herself, yet she was still able to maintain her 'self' as a human.

If it can really reach that level, the supernatural system of this world would be very interesting.

"What do you ask for this?"

First they asked her if her incarnation would be affected by the 'corruption of the ancient gods,' and now they're asking her, 'Is she still herself?'

"Just confirming some things."

After a pause, Ye Tu added.

"The extraordinary system of your world is even more powerful than I expected."

But since that's the case...

"Then why is their current supernatural system so crude?"

"..."

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Ye Tu was very excited.

Even when he had previously taken over the power of greed and influenced the entire world, his emotional fluctuations were never as great as they are now.

"Because it's a dead end."

"Ok?"

"Using our previous methods, we could only reach the level of demigod at most."

"Demigod?"

“Yes, the original extraordinary system has been corrupted by the ancient gods,” Lucia said solemnly.

"When one reaches the stage of condensing a divine spark and ascending to become a true god, the extraordinary individual will encounter a kind of inexplicable contamination, or rather, interference."

"Not only will they fail to become true gods, but their ego will also be corrupted, degenerating into an extremely evil being."

This is why they buried the extraordinary legacy of the Age of Gods.

After all, no one can guarantee that the ancient gods won't be resurrected as a result.
