Chapter 463

(PS: Thanks to the brothers for the monthly tickets and subscriptions. As usual, there will be an extra update today~)

Wu Pifu walked out of the Saintess Courtyard covered in blood. Behind him, flames were burning, but no cries of pain came from the flames. Instead, there were waves of moans, one higher than the other, filled with pain and ecstasy. This sound alone was enough to make mortals addicted, or even cause terrifying changes of Lust.

Wu Pifu knew he was wrong. The Lust among the Seven Towers was not a simple mental consciousness pollution, but something else more terrifying, something of a higher order. He couldn't even describe what it was, but it was definitely not as simple as mental consciousness pollution, because even he had been hit now, only he could suppress it for the time being.

Lust... is not pollution at the level of mental consciousness! At least not purely...

Wu Pifu stumbled out of the Saintess Courtyard. The moaning behind him continued. Even though he had run two streets away, the sound not only didn't dissipate in the slightest, but it was bone-deep, as if it were ringing in his brain.

He had killed all the life that could be killed in the Saintess Courtyard, but he wasn't sure if they were truly dead, because their life forms had already turned into something else before he killed them... He couldn't even call them life; they were more like carriers of countless Lust variants.

The changes in these Succubus-modified bodies—the leader took pregnancy and reproduction as the original meaning of Lust, others took extreme pain as the original meaning of Lust, and there were those who took sexual desire in abstinence, and then abstinence from that, this kind of stimulation in an infinite cycle as the original meaning of Lust. And Yaoyao...

She was a virgin, a second-generation born from a Succubus-modified body. She hadn't been affected by Lust too strongly, but her life essence probably carried some heredity. When Wu Pifu saw her, she had already split...

Every muscle, every piece of skin, every organ of her body had split apart. These things seemed to have all turned into independent individuals, independent life forms. Each piece possessed vitality—terrifying and deformed vitality.

And then each of these pieces was copulating with each other in a terrifying, incomprehensible way that made Wu Pifu dizzy just by looking at it. Wu Pifu dared to swear that these things and these actions had absolutely nothing to do with any pornography, but when he saw all this, his body naturally reacted.

And then, the most terrifying thing was... Yaoyao was not dead yet.

She was saying to Wu Pifu in ecstasy, "Ah, my lover, how I love you. You must love me just as much. I don't want to be defiled by others, so I can only solve this love myself. Come, love me, my lover..."

Wu Pifu swore again that this scene had absolutely nothing to do with masturbation.

He didn't understand, he didn't comprehend. He only knew... rather than letting Yaoyao "live" like this, rather than letting these Succubus-modified people who had already suffered countless hardships fall into this terrifying situation, it would be better to give them peace...

So, he killed them. He killed everyone in that courtyard who had fallen into this terrifying situation, except for the Succubus-modified bodies, Yaoyao, and a few maids responsible for cleaning and supplies in the Saintess Courtyard.

This was the first time Wu Pifu had been so unhappy about swinging his blade at people, so awkward that he was constantly roaring in a low voice.

But even he, with the "Commoner" title's true damage effect, still didn't feel like he had truly killed them after slaying everyone, because their flesh was still changing. And even after being burned, the smoke drifting out was slowly turning into their forms. And Wu Pifu saw that those flames also seemed to be turning into their images, along with the buildings, rocks, and rooms, which seemed to be turning into flesh and blood, looking ferocious and terrifying, yet graceful...

Even when he had run far away, the charming, bone-deep moaning still seemed to ring in his ears, especially Yaoyao's voice, calling out to the lover she imagined. These voices kept telling him about ultimate bliss, but witnessing it with his own eyes, plus being clear-headed, Wu Pifu only felt fear.

At this time, Wu Pifu arrived on the main street of the city. He saw crowds fleeing in panic at the city gate, but more citizens were copulating crazily, regardless of gender or age. At the same time, their flesh and blood were constantly changing, moving toward some organ and form representing Lust. Others were rushing toward the burning Saintess Courtyard, also trapped in the ecstasy of Lust.

Wu Pifu had no other choice. He had tried, whether it was roaring or the Sleepless Spiritual Light, none of it had any effect. Even killing them had no effect. This Lust pollution had already infected him, and he could barely save himself. At this time, he naturally couldn't do anything else, so he just accelerated toward the outside of the city.

When he rushed outside the city, he saw a large tree emitting a faint light not far from the city gate, pushed by a giant cart. Under the tree, hundreds of people had gathered. Samara was also in the group, and he was looking at the city gate with a panicked face.

Seeing Wu Pifu rush out of the city with a staggering pace, Samara was shocked and led people to rush up. At the same time, Daphne was also carrying Jiujiu and rushing toward Wu Pifu.

"Do not approach!!"

Beelzebub suddenly shouted loudly. She flew around Wu Pifu and said with all her might, "He has been infected by the Seven Deadly Sins of Life! I remember now, this is the Seven Deadly Sins of Life. No life can resist it! None of you should approach!!"

Hearing Beelzebub's voice, Samara and Daphne stopped immediately and retreated obediently. But not everyone knew of Beelzebub's existence. They were mostly nobles, priests, and mages, the ruling class of the city-state. They only knew that he was the pillar of this place, and they only wanted to get closer to Wu Pifu at this time.

Then, as they approached Wu Pifu, these people's eyes began to blur, and then their flesh and blood showed signs of splitting and detaching. Wu Pifu even heard the same charming, bone-deep moaning from their mouths, regardless of gender. Then, in the next instant, the Spirit-Breaking Blade slashed violently, and a ripple of wind exploded. The dozens of people who rushed over were immediately blown into fragments, then scattered all over the ground, dead beyond death.

This scene made all hundreds of people terrified, but Wu Pifu didn't care, just rolled onto the ground and closed his eyes to meditate.

His current state was terrible. His spirit was full of all kinds of Lust, even beyond the Lust realm understood by ordinary people, entering those scenes that were even more Slaaneshi than Slaanesh. At the same time, his body was deforming and becoming active. Every muscle, every piece of skin was trying to detach from his body, and he was feeling completely different stimuli—sour, painful, numb, itchy. And every sensory stimulus that shouldn't have been related to Lust made his body constantly superimpose excitement, and this excitement was about to reach a critical point.

He didn't know what would happen after reaching the critical point of excitement, but he instinctively knew that this was definitely not a good thing.

Now, from body to spirit, he was fully resisting the influence of this Lust on him. The Sleepless Spiritual Light was flashing to the limit in his sea of consciousness, and his control of his body had also reached its limit.

"Mental negative backlash rate: 10%!"

"20%..."

"30%..."

"50%!!"

As Wu Pifu was eroded deeper step by step, he had no choice but to use the mental negative backlash. This would increase his current mental burden and worsen his already suppressed mental state, but he couldn't care about that much. Anyway, with the world fragments suppressed in his sea of consciousness and the very fierce Cain fragments, he could always hold on.

But even if Wu Pifu turned the mental negative backlash rate to 50%, it only delayed the speed of Lust erosion. Not only could it not be stopped, but the erosion rate was still increasing. Although judging by the delay, as long as he continued to increase the mental negative backlash, he could still stop or eliminate this Lust erosion, but his current mental state could not support opening a higher degree of mental negative backlash.

Besides this, what other way was there?

Super-Brain World?

It was very difficult to open, and his Super-Brain World attribute was not to clear erosion.

Meditation? Calming the mind?

Or... Ascend to the Heavenly Court?

Wu Pifu had a flash of inspiration, and the words Beelzebub had said before suddenly rang in his mind.

This world, these Lost Lands, were led by the Heavenly Court, which joined forces with many origins to build together...

Led by the Heavenly Court!

Wu Pifu forcibly calmed his mind, forcibly suppressed the constantly superimposing Lust emotions for a moment, and then his mental state entered the meditation of Ascending to the Heavenly Court.

It was still the familiar mist, still the familiar halfway up the hillside. But when Wu Pifu's consciousness came to the meditation method of Ascending to the Heavenly Court, in that mist, there were actually sounds of charming, bone-deep moaning, and various graceful figures seemed to appear vaguely in the mist.

Wu Pifu didn't care, just firmed his mind and climbed toward the top of the hillside. It was still full of sharp stones, like blades. He stepped on them and felt incredibly painful, and this pain happened to slightly alleviate his Lust emotions at this moment, which made his heart shake.

With this gain, Wu Pifu immediately climbed to the top of the mountain with all his heart. But the temptation in the mist was also increasing. Various virtual shadows that were clearly bizarre but inexplicably brought Lust began to appear, and vaguely, they seemed to be about to appear from the mist.

Wu Pifu still didn't care, climbing up with his hands and feet, letting the sharp stone blades cut him all over. Finally, after not knowing how long had passed, he climbed to the top of the mountain with all his heart. And just as he was about to leap out to the Heavenly Court above, a large number of figures—disgusting, terrifying, twisted figures—pierced through the mist and surrounded him. Almost immediately, the Lust erosion was about to reach the critical point...

"How dare you, witch!?"

"How dare you ruin my Dao Seed's cultivation!?"

A loud explosion suddenly appeared from the Heavenly Court above the nine heavens. Immediately after, a small tower was thrown from the Heavenly Court. All the moaning figures fell into the tower in the blink of an eye. In just a moment, the tower began to wriggle and soften, as if it were about to turn into a strange flesh organ.

Taking advantage of this, Wu Pifu leaped up, rose into the air, and fell to the ground before the small tower completely rotted...

In the next second, Wu Pifu opened his eyes, and the Lust erosion all over his body had completely disappeared.
