Chapter 525: Threat? Doesn't Exist!

Money!

What I desire!

Strength!

What I also desire!

Most of the time, money equals strength!

This is the truest portrait in Luo Chenyu's heart — what he's greedy for is money and strength…

Hmm… there are a few other things, but they don't matter.

Every emergence of greed is rooted in imagination deep within the mind.

Greed is the original sin!

At this moment, for Luo Chenyu, it is the most perfect tonic.

Because he discovered that his soul, after its mutation, could actually keep him lucid within the power of greed, and the stronger the power of greed, the more his soul's primordial heart was enhanced.

Enhancement is growth progress!

Every moment, he could feel his soul's primordial heart solidifying.

Every moment, he could feel the soothing comfort brought by the baptism of the power of greed.

This… is enough!

"More, a little more!!"

Endless fantasies surfaced in Luo Chenyu's mind — he even imagined himself as "Big Brother Pangu," shattering the primordial chaos with a single force and creating the Great Desolation world.

The endless power of greed, following Luo Chenyu's fantasies, actually began to crumble!

"Hss!!"

Luo Chenyu seemed to sense a bizarre rule hindering his fantasies.

Indescribable, ineffable!

The endless power of greed shattered, transforming into the purest energy that sank into his soul's primordial heart.

The growth progress bar advanced another notch.

Most importantly, he had awakened his first soul-related ability.

Seven Deadly Sins · Greed!

There was no prompt message, but he could clearly feel the power of greed contained within his soul's primordial heart.

The effect was very basic, very simple.

It was to stir the target's greedy emotions — if the target had no powerful soul defense, it could permanently strip a target of their true nature, turning them into a slave to greed.

And at this moment.

A voice appeared in Luo Chenyu's ear: "Master, thank you!!"

Luo Chenyu was slightly taken aback.

This voice was that of 【Steel Shield】.

Why the thanks?

He wasn't sure — currently, 【Steel Shield】's evolution level still hadn't changed. If he had to guess, this "thank you" would definitely bring him a pleasant surprise.

Now his consciousness had already returned to his body, yet he didn't immediately sense his surroundings.

Because…

In his soul's sea of consciousness, there was still one old schemer unresolved.

His soul's primordial heart stirred slightly.

A miniature Luo Chenyu emerged from his soul's primordial heart, his gaze falling upon the Necromancer God Andl, who was bound within the sea of consciousness.

"We meet again, old fellow!"

Luo Chenyu smiled faintly, as if chatting amiably with an old acquaintance. "Time really flies — in the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed. I've missed you terribly, pal!"

Accompanied by Luo Chenyu's appearance.

The Necromancer God Andl's heart sank further into despair.

He had already discovered that the aura of 【Seven Deadly Sins · Greed】 had completely vanished.

In other words.

His final trump card was gone too.

The ultimate fate of this soul avatar was but a single word — death.

"Indeed, it's been a long time!"

Since the outcome was already set, Andl completely let himself go. "Letting you live back then was the greatest mistake of my life!"

"Hahaha…"

Luo Chenyu laughed wildly and said, "If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?"

"Believe it or not, even if you'd made a move back then, you couldn't have killed me!"

"Indeed…"

The Necromancer God Andl hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "You possess the 【Eternal Token】, so you could indeed have hidden inside the Eternal Tower!"

Suddenly.

Andl also laughed wildly. "But would you have hidden back then?"

He had seen every scene in the ruins of the Skeleton Throne crystal clear — Luo Chenyu had used his own body to block a bone spike for that pretty, dewy-eyed little girl.

A bone spike that pierced clean through his body.

That kind of resolve — the relationship between those two must be quite something.

If not lovers, then close enough.

"What do you mean?"

Hearing Andre's words, Luo Chenyu suddenly felt a premonition of ill fortune.

Could it be…

This old schemer wants to harm Facing Ye Xingtong?

He didn't know whether, under these circumstances, Andre could transmit the message to his true self.

If he truly succeeded, and That One moved against Facing Ye Xingtong…

The consequences were beyond what he could bear.

"Hehehe… Don't worry, I won't lay a finger on that little girl—but you must promise me one thing!"

"Oh?"

Luo Chenyu blinked slightly and said, "Go on."

"It's simple: swear a soul oath, give me the God-Imprisoning Key, and let me go!"

The Necromantic God-Technician Andre's smile grew even more brazen.

He was gambling—on how much Luo Chenyu valued Facing Ye Xingtong.

This was his only sliver of hope.

Luo Chenyu frowned deeply, staring fixedly at the Necromantic God-Technician Andre, lost in thought.

The Necromantic God-Technician Andre said nothing, returning his gaze with equal intensity.

Seeing his hesitation, hope swelled within him!

If he guessed right, then…

This would be the best outcome.

Excited·JPG!

The silent soul realm held only two figures.

This standoff lasted over three minutes.

Suddenly.
