Chapter 332: Sequence Sublimation, the Omen of the Evil God Manifests
Looking at the name of the sublimation sequence 【Omen of the Evil God】 marked by the Space in that special red color, that color was far rarer than the purple represented by Rare and Peerless; it was a luster rarely seen by ordinary Reincarnators.
For comparison, the previous 【Scarlet Skull】 had been marked in purple.
Bai Cangshu did not wait to trigger more Great Sins, then go on to accumulate the completion progress for those Great Sins; regarding the Lust Sin, he had wasted almost two or three mission cycles of time.
For a Great Sin that did not suit him, it was extremely difficult to satisfy.
If he hadn't accidentally discovered the true form of the Moon Demon, he probably wouldn't have pursued the Lust Sin in the end, and would have advanced to Sequence Two with 【Scarlet Skull】.
At this very moment, this sublimation sequence that reached red quality had reached the limit of what he could wait for at this point in time.
With the high difficulty of the next mission world, and the fact that he would soon face Xu Zhiyu, who was also a Great Sin Reincarnator, the greed in Bai Cangshu's heart seemed to be manifesting; after he had dismissed Du Enqin and Lin Qinfu.
Without much hesitation, he pointed his fingers like sharp blades, while the muscles and bones of his chest had already been completely shifted by him.
Pfft!
He sliced open his own heart; a heart flickering with a blue-white luster crackled in the air, and a large amount of ionized gas began to dissipate into the surroundings due to contact with the air.
This commotion caused Li Qingzi, who was wearing a bathrobe and still looking somewhat pale, to come to the doorway in alert; she held a sword hilt over thirty centimeters long in her hand, with a ring of blue-white luster on the guard, full of a sense of technology.
At this moment, as she gripped it firmly, a narrow sword blade nearly two meters long immediately appeared inside the guard; this was a super-tech combat blade whose blade length could be changed simply by altering the arrangement structure of its nanoparticles.
It was the 【Gantz Sword】 from the 【Gantz】 world.
She looked at Bai Cangshu, who had sliced open his own chest, not knowing what on earth this madman was doing.
The next moment, she saw the other party take out his own lightning-flashing heart; she was very certain that this was either Achao-fan Te-zheng obtained when the other party broke through the First Tier Extreme Value, or some very rare Tese strengthened at the Rank Management Office.
Pfft!
After the heart was pulled out, fresh blood gushed forth; this heart still continued to pump blood out, and Bai Cangshu's face turned slightly pale.
"Watch closely, my little slave, this is the power of the Special Reincarnator you are most curious about~"
Bai Cangshu held his own heart, his expression carrying a morbid pleasure; this was not just the joy of the new power he was about to obtain, but also him witnessing his own great power in this form.
Bai Cangshu raised his heart with his right hand, and a scarlet light began to emerge from the back of his hand.
【Detected that the Great Sin Reincarnator has met the conditions for sequence sublimation: Do you wish to sacrifice Sin Heart*1 and Sin Point*10 to unlock the unique hidden sublimation sequence: Omen of the Evil God?】
【Note: This choice is irreversible】
"Confirm."
The moment Bai Cangshu confirmed in his heart, a powerful force suddenly surged from his right hand; the 【Sin】 character on his palm appeared once more, growing larger and larger, as if transforming into a scarlet magic circle that enveloped Bai Cangshu within it.
The heart in Bai Cangshu's hand beat two final times, then began to melt into foul-smelling blood.
The lightning accumulated in the heart turned into electric currents and thunderbolts, flickering and echoing within the room.
"Tsk, you really are picky; this heart of mine, aside from those sins, is also Rare and Peerless, you know~"
The Scarlet Sin had absolutely no interest in the other rare materials within this heart; the blood grew more and more, flowing down from Bai Cangshu's raised palm and dripping onto the 【Sin】 character that had now manifested on the floor.
The scarlet blood became more and more abundant, and blood-colored mist rose from it.
In just a moment, it submerged the room; Li Qingzi frowned, and even her Observation Haki could not perceive the situation in the room at this moment.
That Bai Cangshu seemed to have been swallowed by these scarlet powers.
"Is this... the advancement of a Great Sin-type Special Reincarnator?!"
She vaguely realized that this was likely not the phenomenon of an ordinary Great Sin Reincarnator's advancement at all; there had been a few Special Reincarnators who appeared in the Space, as well as some who had died, but based on the data she had collected, those people had nothing special about them when they upgraded their sequences.
Thump, thump.
The sound of a heartbeat rang out again, as if an embryo were taking shape in the blood mist, and the next moment... Boom!
A violent wind pressure emerged from the room, and the blood mist was cleared away in an instant; Li Qingzi had her full body hardened with Armament Haki and was not injured, though she was stained with quite a bit of blood.
Looking into the room again, her pupils shrank.
A tall figure stood in the room, its head almost touching the three-and-a-half-meter-high ceiling of this luxury lounge.
Its entire body was blood-red, and the air around it appeared distorted, making it impossible to see the figure very clearly; but behind that swaying air, it looked non-human in every way.
That body swayed constantly; Li Qingzi walked two steps closer before she could see clearly that it was not a real flesh-and-blood body, but some kind of "phantom" condensed from scarlet luster!
Yet, whether in terms of its solidity or the terrifying aura it emitted, it was as if an evil god from myths and legends had manifested its physical form in the present world.
【You have completed the Great Sin Sequence Sublimation】
【You have advanced to: Great Sin Sequence II: Omen of the Evil God】
【Great Sin Sequence II: Omen of the Evil God: You whisper in the sea of chaos and desire; you are the omen of the Evil God's descent.】
【Sequence Effect 1: Evil God Manifestation; can be activated actively. Each activation consumes 1 Sin Point; it cannot be activated if Sin Points are below 1. After activation, you will gain the active effect of Omen of the Evil God.】
【Sequence Effect 2: Evil God's Omen: Arrogant Gaze; Passive effect: You gain a special vision, capable of marking all targets within your visual range that you judge to be weaker than yourself. This effect has medium priority; the mark cannot be dispelled by invisibility, illusions, clones, or other abilities. Active effect: Under the Omen of the Evil God, Arrogant Gaze will deal massive damage to marked targets; the damage is positively correlated with the gap in power between both parties and your Heart of Arrogance.】
【Sequence Effect 3: Evil God Omen: Cocoon of Greed; Passive effect: You gain an evil greed; all Reincarnators killed by you are guaranteed to produce a Scarlet Drop Card (ignoring mission world type), and you automatically obtain an additional tier of rewards, with the opening of Scarlet Drop rewards increased by 50%. Active effect: Under the Omen of the Evil God, you will continuously absorb the life energy of all existences in the surroundings as well as the energy generated by attacks, forming an invisible shield on the surface of the Omen of the Evil God's body. The absorption range and rate are related to your Constitution attribute and Heart of Greed; the stronger the target's desire, the faster the absorption speed.】
【Sequence Effect 4: Evil God Omen: Blade of Tyranny; Passive effect: Targets attacked by you will receive a continuous Brand of Pain; wounds cannot heal, and the spirit suffers torment. Active effect: Under the Omen of the Evil God, you can actively detonate the Brand of Pain, dealing limb-severing level damage to the target. The duration and intensity of pain for this ability are positively correlated with the gap in Agility attributes between both parties and your Heart of Tyranny.】
【Sequence Effect 5: Evil God Omen: Heart of Lust; Passive effect: You gain an additional attraction effect toward non-Order side Plot Characters (ignoring gender), and your Reputation growth speed in corresponding factions is additionally increased. Active effect: Under the Omen of the Evil God, you can dominate the desires of all targets who look directly at the Omen of the Evil God and subject them to Spirit Hypnosis, inciting lustful sins; this effect is positively correlated with the gap in Spirit attributes between both parties and your Heart of Lust.】
The unprecedentedly complex sequence abilities kept Bai Cangshu standing in place for a long time; he felt this inexplicable power, raised his hand, and looked at the blood-red power wrapped around his body. For the first time, he realized that the scarlet power of the Scarlet Sin could actually participate directly in combat.
"Ha~"
His smile began to distort; Great Sin, Great Sin—of course, it couldn't just be about letting him obtain kill drops. Now, that part of the ability had also been enhanced within the Cocoon of Greed.
Not only that, he had effectively gained a very powerful transformation ability.
Li Qingzi had not yet realized what was happening when a fire suddenly seemed to ignite in the depths of her heart.
"You..."
The next moment, her spirit began to grow hazy; the last thing she saw was her panel notification stating that she had looked directly at the descent of the 【Omen of the Evil God】 and, affected by the Heart of Lust, was undergoing a spirit immunity check.
When Li Qingzi opened her eyes again, she was lying on the bed, and the room was filled with the scent of post-pleasure.
She looked at the man standing by the window, naked and restored to his original appearance, and felt only that the other party was thoroughly a demon wearing a human skin.
"You're awake?"
"We should head to Korea; I also want to see how much longer that Xu Zhiyu intends to keep holding onto my Treasure Map..."
Li Qingzi saw a terrifying look of Greed Sin flash across Bai Cangshu's face, and just as she was about to reply, she saw a space notification.
【Based on Three-Star Reincarnator Authority, you are hereby notified that your next deployment will begin in two days.】
"The mission is about to start."
