Chapter 462

Time rewinds to half an hour before Wu Pifu opened his eyes.

A group of over a dozen people was moving forward across the pitch-black grassland. They were all draped in thick cloaks that covered them from head to toe. They used no vehicles or mounts, relying entirely on their own legs to walk, yet their speed was as fast as galloping horses.

Their destination was the main city of the Natural Purity God City-State Union—the very city where Wu Pifu had first arrived. It had since undergone two rounds of expansion, becoming a massive, super-sized city with a population of one hundred thousand, a rarity across the entire grassland. It was the seat of the Totem God, the Natural Purity God, and also Wu Pifu's current place of residence.

As they drew closer to the city, the group's pace slowed. Finally, they stopped at a spot on the grassland where the city was visible. The leader seemed to sense something, then said to those behind him, "That's right, it's here. The remaining resources of the Tower of Lust have all fled here... but there isn't much left. All together, there isn't even a hundred units of resources."

Someone behind him said, "It's not bad, though. The other towers only have ten or twenty units left. Especially Gluttony and Wrath—they don't have a single unit left. Who knows how long it will take to rebuild those towers? With nearly a hundred units here, and such a large population, we can already establish a small three-story tower."

Everyone nodded in agreement. The leader said, "We have already collected enough Lust energy, which is perfect. Everyone, join forces. Let's establish the small three-story Tower of Lust here first, and then slowly restore our strength... Those forces that joined hands to destroy our foundation and our great ambition of ascension—one day, they will pay for it!"

The group slowly formed a circle with the leader at the center. Layers of intangible matter surged here, and gradually, the intangible matter took on the form of pink jelly, lunging toward the distant city before vanishing without a trace.

Everyone present was trembling, sitting down while gasping for breath. As they moved, parts of their bodies were exposed from beneath their cloaks, revealing a bizarre state, as if they were composed of countless individual organs combined together.

After sitting and panting for a moment, they regained their composure. Someone said, "Having lost our foundation, we are all nearly mortal now."

Everyone sighed. The leader said in a deep voice, "Every land has its own foundation. Aside from the initial arrivals, who could still have power after losing their foundation? This is the natural order of things; it is simply that we were defeated. There is no need to say more."

The group acknowledged this, and a female voice said, "Leader, I am quite curious. In the Lost Lands, every place has its own foundation, whether strong or weak—that is certain. But we have never seen such weak power as in this land... Believing in gods, and then the gods granting power, yet both the gods and the believers are weak to the point of being outrageous. How does such a land even exist?"

After a long silence, the leader said, "That is only because you haven't seen enough... There is more than one land of god-worship, just as the Seven Towers are only one branch among the lands of the Seven Emotions and Six Desires. This land of god-worship is still in its early development. When this land evolves to its later stages, it will become a terrifying, disaster-level catastrophe."

The group looked skeptical. The female voice asked again, "Just those so-called gods? Are they that powerful?"

"No, not the gods, but the faith... the poison of faith. That kind of terror is beyond your imagination." After saying this, the leader fell silent.

A moment later, light suddenly appeared in the distant city. Pink light began to shroud the entire city.

At the same time, Wu Pifu opened his eyes, rolled off the bed, and immediately ran to the window to look toward the Saintess Courtyard. Sure enough, he saw wisps of pink aura spreading. Although there were no other changes yet, the moment he saw that pink aura, his internal premonition of danger reached its peak.

Having recuperated here for nine months, his physical hidden injuries had long since fully healed, and he had even completed the tempering of his body to the "Seeing the Divine, Indestructible" state. However, his mental exhaustion and damage had been slow to recover. Although it would no longer worsen, the speed of recovery was shockingly slow. Even after several months, he still felt a dullness in his mental consciousness, especially his martial arts intuition, which felt as if it were asleep. Unless he saw it with his own eyes, his premonitory intuition for danger was almost non-existent.

Only now did he feel the danger. He slapped the mosquito net by the bed, and the three small animals on the other bed woke up, looking at him in confusion.

Wu Pifu said immediately, "Daphne, Jiujiu, go to the City Lord's mansion immediately. Tell Samara to evacuate the citizens as much as possible, and take the Natural Purity God out of the city—the further, the better!"

As he spoke, he tore the mosquito net into cloth, bit his finger, and smeared a large 'X' on it.

He did not know the language of this world, but Samara was very smart. When he saw Daphne, Jiujiu, and this mosquito net, he would naturally know what to do. In their many previous conversations, Wu Pifu had mentioned evacuating the city in emergencies, though that was aimed at sudden attacks by Kingdom-level gods to avoid casualties from large-scale battles. The situation now was different.

After doing all this, Daphne picked up the mosquito net in her mouth, whimpering, while Jiujiu jumped onto the dog's head, also chirping.

Wu Pifu scooped up the fat fly and hung it at his waist, saying, "Don't worry, I understand. My strength is not only fully restored, but my body is also several times stronger than before. Although my spirit hasn't recovered, it just means my use of the Super-Brain is limited. Don't worry."

After speaking, Wu Pifu jumped out the window and soared a hundred meters away in a single bound.

Daphne did not delay, carrying Jiujiu on her back as she ran toward the City Lord's mansion.

On the other side, it took Wu Pifu less than two seconds to rush outside the Saintess Courtyard. He could not hear any sound from within, as if something was blocking the leakage of information, but his premonition of danger had climbed to its peak. This danger premonition even surpassed the danger he felt when leaving the Heaven world in the Warhammer Dream World—back then, the four Chaos Gods of the Warp were tearing the planet apart!

Is this Lust transcendence really this terrifying?

Wu Pifu asked, "Beelzebub, do you remember anything now?"

Beelzebub said, "I don't remember anything. Lust is the symbol of Asmodeus among the Seven Deadly Sins. If you want me to remember something, I'm afraid you'll have to take me to the Tower of Gluttony to see."

Wu Pifu nodded slightly, then lunged fiercely toward the Saintess Courtyard. He kicked the gate open and was about to rush inside when he saw a figure standing in front of the prayer hall behind the gate.

The prayer hall had seats, and on the platform at the front of the hall stood a statue carved in the image of the Natural Purity God. The hall was neat and white, giving one a sense of holiness and purity at first glance.

Yet, just by standing on the platform, this figure gave off an intensely strong sense of lust.

She was the leader of the Succubus-modified bodies. She had a voluptuous figure and was usually full of charm, but at this moment, she looked devoid of any charm. Her face was full of holiness, and she wore thick robes. However, what Wu Pifu found contradictory was that she looked even more blood-pumping at this moment.

"Saint, I think we were all wrong..."

The leader turned around, bowed slightly to Wu Pifu with an incredibly holy expression, and said, "We all misunderstood Lust. We thought it was dirty, filthy, and tormenting, but we were all wrong... The true meaning of Lust is not this. Lust is the instinct of all life; it is a sacred truth born for reproduction. Yaoyao is the proof. Without Lust, there would be no birth of Yaoyao. Her birth is hope; all new life is hope... Saint, look, look..."

The leader's belly slowly expanded. In just a few seconds, she became a pregnant woman. The holier her expression, the greater the danger Wu Pifu felt. Moreover, his blood and Qi felt as if they were about to spiral out of control. His lower body stood up inexplicably, his blood surged, and vaguely, he felt as if there was some foreign object in his own belly.

In the blink of an eye, the leader's entire body expanded—her face, her eyeballs, her fingers, her arms, her thighs... And this expansion was not the horror of pus or anything like that, but still filled with a sense of holiness, and then, within this immense holiness, an unimaginable, filthy lust was implanted.

Wu Pifu lowered his head abruptly, not daring to look again. At the same time, he moved quickly, slipping past the leader and into the Saintess Courtyard. As soon as he entered the inner courtyard, he felt a soft touch under his feet. Stepping on it, he felt a bloody mess, but at the same time, a voice as charming as bone-deep rang out.

"So painful, so comfortable, so painful, so comfortable..."

Wu Pifu felt his hair stand on end. Under his feet, a former witch had been spread out alive. Her flesh, bones, internal organs, blood vessels, and nerves... all were spread out, covering almost half the courtyard. The most critical thing was that she was still alive...

Wu Pifu jumped onto the wall, used it for leverage, and rushed toward where Yaoyao was in the inner courtyard. Just as he jumped over the courtyard, he saw over a dozen witches standing at the entrance of the compound. Wu Pifu was on high alert, but these dozen witches were behaving normally, except that their expressions carried the pain of restraint and abstinence.

Wu Pifu shouted immediately, "Quick, leave the Saintess Courtyard! This place has been attacked..."

As his voice fell, one woman suddenly rolled her eyes back, let out an unbearable moan, and then her body exploded, turning into finger-sized flesh tumors. All these tumors were making various moans, imitating human-like copulation. The remaining dozen witches still had faces full of restrained pain, but their voices were all kinds of joy.

"It's great, it's great, this is the true meaning of Lust. Lust in abstinence, abstinence in Lust. That's right, the true supreme peak of Lust is the inner, inner, inner... of that infinite cycle."

One of the women, while showing a painful expression, shrieked, and then she also exploded violently.

Wu Pifu felt as if all the flesh and blood in his body were wriggling, as if they had a will of their own. And the more he moved his blood and Qi to suppress his desires, the more new desires seemed to be born within that suppressed desire. It was truly like a desire within a desire within a desire... an infinite cycle of desire.

What was even more terrifying was that under the illumination of his Sleepless Spiritual Light, this terrifying cycle of desire had no suppressive effect at all. This desire did not seem to come from the outside, but from himself.

Relying on his willpower, Wu Pifu rushed past these dozen witches and reached the door of Yaoyao's room. He slapped the door, and it shattered immediately. He was about to call out, but in the next second, he silently closed his mouth.

In the next second, Wu Pifu raised the Spirit-Breaking Blade in his hand.
