Chapter 523

The soul's primordial heart, brimming with mysterious energy, appeared in His sight.

Ordinary, seemingly just an ordinary stone.

Soul energy entwined with strange gray threads wrapped around the stone.

This sight made the hunched figure laugh even more wildly.

Yet…

The next moment.

Above the utterly ordinary soul primordial heart, intricate energies slowly emerged from within the soul primordial heart.

"To come uninvited is to be a thief; since you've come, stay here!"

All that formed was a series of intricate energies gradually coalescing into a slender, graceful figure; she did not reveal her true face, and her voice was flat, "Congratulations, you've become another grain of sand on your master's path to invincibility."

"Necromancy God·André!"

"Who… are you?"

The hunched figure—no, it should be called the soul avatar of Necromancy God·André—fixed his gaze on the graceful figure.

He swore he had never seen such bizarre soul energy before.

It radiated a thick aura of life!

A soul possessing a life aura?

In His knowledge, only one of the legendary strongest goddesses—the Life Goddess—could possess such ability.

But wasn't the Life Goddess long gone from history?

As a deity of the Divine-Mortal Continent,

He naturally knew some ancient secrets.

The Life Goddess had been active in the ancient era of the Divine-Mortal Continent, even vanishing into the vastness of history before the "War of the Gods" erupted.

Yet now, this phantom before him possessed the same ability as the Life Goddess.

No…

Or rather, Luo Chenyu possessed the same soul ability as the Life Goddess.

André could not sense the true nature of the phantom, and could not immediately judge her strength.

And…

In response to André's question, the phantom formed by 【Protection of the Life Goddess】 offered no further reply.

She sensed André's boundless malice.

The only thing she could do now was to imprison him here.

Then wait for Luo Chenyu's final judgment.

Danger?

No, to her, this tiny soul energy was utterly negligible—she could crush it utterly with a wave of her hand.

Yet at this moment…

Real danger still existed: if Luo Chenyu slipped up even slightly,

He might lose something critical.

That was, the greed effect of 【Steel Shield】.

The power of the Seven Sins·Greed indeed posed a serious threat to Luo Chenyu, for it was among the most supreme evil forces of the Divine-Mortal Continent.

It could assimilate forces of the same form.

If the greed effect of 【Steel Shield】 were assimilated, Luo Chenyu's final combat power would be drastically diminished.

Even…

He might become a "completely ordinary" tank.

"Master, with your soul strength, you should be able to endure this minor trial, right?"

As 【Protection of the Life Goddess】 mused…

She swung her arm, and a emerald-green energy shot forth from her hand, instantly imprisoning Necromancy God·André in place.

Throughout the soul realm, all soul energy except that of the Seven Sins·Greed was instantly purified.

André's eyes bulged, his face filled with disbelief.

"Who are you?! Why do you possess the Life Goddess's life-soul energy?!"

Yet his voice could only echo within his own mind.

It could not penetrate the barrier of imprisonment.

Despair!!

No, he still had a chance!

As long as Luo Chenyu's soul primordial heart was tainted by the power of Greed, he still had a chance to escape!

As for "possession"?

He had completely abandoned it—even if his soul's true body arrived, he had almost no chance of breaking through this imprisonment.

Like the powers of the Divine-Mortal, the Seven Sins, and others.

Life energy was also one of the strongest forces on the Divine-Mortal Continent.

And he? Merely a tiny human who had twisted himself into something neither man nor ghost to barely become a deity.

Though his strength was not weak among the gods,

But…

Honestly, when facing the strongest deities, he was nothing at all!

If this soul avatar were destroyed, his true body would suffer considerable damage.

The Lich God of Necromancy, toys with life and soul!

But the backlash suffered is far more violent than that of other professions.

For Andre, this was torment.

………………

And at this moment.

Luo Chenyu's consciousness entered one after another bizarre Illusion Realm.

They were desires from the deepest depths of his heart.

Wealth, lust, alcohol, and vapor!

Fist, power, Wang Zuo!

All were true reflections of his innermost self.

Greed!

It was his very nature!

Now, under the temptation of the 【Seven Deadly Sins · Greed】, his inner desires expanded infinitely.

Starting with greed for money, greed for lust, greed for power…

Then later, greed for heaven and earth!

Even…

Some absurd things he had once seen in past-life worlds appeared one by one in his mind.

The most primal greed!

The Illusion Realm grew increasingly absurd!

And with each Illusion Realm endured, the power of greed grew stronger.

This immense power of greed had already surpassed the greed power inherent in the Lich God of Necromancy · Andre's techniques…

………………

In the core of Luo Chenyu's soul origin.

Several figures circled around.

Watching the surging power of greed before them, they all marveled in awe.

"The master's level of greed is too absurd."

"I wonder what the master has endured—his desires have been amplified infinitely. If this continues, even the 【Eternal Ten Thousand Worlds】 cannot contain such terrifying greed power!"

"Greed relies on imagination; without sufficient experience, one could never condense such terrifying greed power."

"Hahaha, we've chosen the right master!"

"How can you still laugh? What if the master becomes trapped in the Illusion Realm and cannot escape? Won't we sink with him!"
