Chapter 4024: Gluttony

The embers of burning blood scattered in mid-air. Su Xiao raised the long blade in his hand, looking at the powerful soul power condensed upon it. He was certain that Zhan Long Shan would gain a massive upgrade from this dragon slaying.

Taking out a bottle of "Bright Red Secret Medicine," he crushed and used it. After his injuries had recovered somewhat, Su Xiao stepped toward the headless giant corpse of the Abyss Ancient Dragon. He slashed his long blade across the dragon's belly—not out of anger after a death battle; Su Xiao had never done such base things. He was going to rescue Amu from within the dragon's belly.

Before long, Amu crawled out from the slashed wound. The simple-minded ox's skin was tattered by acid erosion, but his flesh was surprisingly tough. Not only that, but as soon as Amu's feet touched the ground, he let out a giant, satisfied burp that could be described as a dragon's roar.

Amu patted his belly with particular satisfaction; this clearly meant he... was full.

This also indicated that the Abyss Ancient Dragon's massive dragon heart, as well as a large amount of flesh enhanced by the power of the Abyss, had all ended up in Amu's stomach.

In the past, this would have been equivalent to suicide for Amu, but now, Amu's stomach had fully absorbed the nourishment and enhancement of 32 portions of "Abyssal Source Matter." To say he had an Abyssal Stomach would be an exaggeration, but as long as he didn't swallow initial-state Abyssal energy directly, there would be no problem.

For example, the heart flesh of the Abyss Ancient Dragon, the immortal/indestructible Abyssal growth after being slain, or even the flesh of Abyssal descendants—Amu should be able to swallow and digest them all.

If Amu were allowed to keep swallowing like this, it was possible that this simple-minded ox might truly develop an Abyssal Stomach. Come to think of it, what Amu had been exercising without pause since his birth was his stomach.

In terms of focus, he was actually no weaker than Su Xiao. Every time he returned to the Samsara Paradise's exclusive room, Su Xiao would immediately open his storage space to see his gains, thereby preparing to improve himself.

Amu was more direct. After recovering from his injuries, he would immediately go to his exclusive giant refrigerator to begin his wonderful and appetite-opening "hard training." And today, this training had actually yielded results.

Because Amu had swallowed the Abyss Ancient Dragon's heart, he naturally also obtained the 【Dukain Family Badge】 belonging to the Twin Kings.

Black flames began to appear in the surroundings, burning everything in the area. The Lord Train arrived, and after Su Xiao and Amu quickly boarded, the Lord Train began to rush out of the black flames.

Ten minutes later, the Lord Train rushed out of the black flame zone. The front of the train was burned to a glowing red, and the cooling armor layer inside the train was also nearing its limit.

Inside the train, Su Xiao turned off the overloaded train defenses and saw the black flames rising into the sky outside. This was an evaporative explosive reaction triggered by the loss of the source of corruption in this place and the lack of sufficiently powerful force to suppress it. In plain language, it was a supernatural version of a methane explosion.

Su Xiao leaned back on the sofa, relaxed. He had a more concrete understanding of his current strength. While the magnitude of his recent upgrades was outrageously large, he actually lacked a "core bearing," and this core bearing was his four main attributes.

The Green Qing Qing Gang Ying ability was fine; this ability didn't provide much of a bonus to himself, as it was a lethal ability. As long as he was proficient enough in wielding it, there would be no problem.

Su Xiao was not a "Magic-Devouring Shadow" and would not master many abilities derived from "Green Qing Qing Gang Ying." They, the "Soul-Severing Shadows," used Green Qing Qing Gang Ying in a way so simple and crude that even the "Magic-Devouring Shadows" would want to curse out loud. Just imbue it onto the blade, and that was it. The ones who needed to experience the violence of Green Qing Qing Gang Ying were the enemies, not Su Xiao himself.

Therefore, even if the Green Qing Qing Gang Ying ability reached a very high level now, he could still wield it. As for developing "Magic-Devouring Shadow" abilities, that was impossible. The first hard requirement for "Magic-Devouring Shadow" was to devour one's own Blade Magic Spirit.

And there was no need to moonlight as a "Space-Breaking Shadow." Su Xiao had the Green Shadow King ability. "Space-Breaking Shadow" was invincible in group battles and had a powerful Dragon Shadow Flash ability. In terms of group battle capability, "Space-Breaking Shadow" really couldn't compare to Su Xiao with a max-level Green Shadow King. As for the development of Dragon Shadow Flash in terms of the spatial system...

Guess why Su Xiao had been using the "Law-Breaker Teleportation Array" to this day? Was it because the force of this teleportation array was strong enough? Almost impossible to block?

Of course not. When he first used the "Law-Breaker Teleportation Array," he would be stunned every time he teleported. After each teleportation, he would have to lean against a wall to recover for half a day and observe the surroundings to confirm if this was still the world he had been in just moments ago. It could be said that he would use it once in the morning and be dazed for the whole morning.

If it weren't for his poor spatial talent, who would learn this thing? And, Su Xiao's max-level "Dragon Shadow Flash" ability had no other characteristics besides penetrating space, which already raised many questions.

Green Qing Qing Gang Ying, as the core ability of the Law-Breaker system, was powerful yet easy to wield. "Swordsmanship Master," however, was not. With 120 "initial skill points" dumped into it, Su Xiao's combat power was immediate, but this also caused "Extreme Blade: Bai Ye" to change from an active to a passive state.

"Extreme Blade: Bai Ye" had a powerful yet extremely burdensome characteristic. It was not a rigid bonus but would advance with the improvement of Swordsmanship Master.

For example, if yesterday's Swordsmanship Master had a comprehensive power of 5, then after the bonus of the passive state "Extreme Blade: Bai Ye," it became a comprehensive power of 25.

But today, Su Xiao had upgraded Swordsmanship Master, increasing its comprehensive power to 40. That wouldn't be yesterday's total strength of 25 plus the 30 added today, equaling 55. It was today's comprehensive power of 40 × 5, equaling 200 comprehensive power.

Everything had a price, and Swordsmanship Master was no exception. Su Xiao's current core, his four main attributes, indeed could not bear this level of Swordsmanship Master. He estimated that he would need at least 1500 points in all four attributes to bear it.

All he could do now was manage it himself. As long as he survived this world, he could reach 1500 points in all four main attributes upon returning to the Samsara Paradise. After all, he still had 24 【Samsara Badges】 on hand.

He hadn't explosively increased his physique before to avoid disrupting the growth of his combat system. Now, he didn't need to worry. His body attributes were even lagging behind; in this situation, it didn't matter how much he increased them at once; in fact, it was beneficial.

【Notification (Tree of the Void): You have completed the Swordsmanship Master unique achievement: Dragon Slayer.】

【You have obtained the rare title: Dragon Slayer.】

Checking the 【Dragon Slayer】 title, he found that it had no attributes. However, the next second, the Samsara Paradise notification appeared.

【Detected that the Hunter has obtained the "Dragon Slayer" title. Do you wish to sell this title?】

【Selling this title will grant "Main Weapon Forging +2 Permission."】

Su Xiao attempted to check what "Main Weapon Forging +2 Permission" was.

【"Main Weapon Forging +2 Permission: After using this permission, the current selected main weapon's reinforcement level +2."】

Su Xiao sold the "Dragon Slayer" title to the Samsara Paradise without hesitation. He had spent a great deal of effort to get Zhan Long Shan to +13. When Zhan Long Shan reached the highest quality of equipment conventional notarization rating, "Eternal Grade," it had two reinforcement choices: conventional reinforcement and "Eternal Grade Exclusive Reinforcement."

Conventional reinforcement had too high a risk; high-level reinforcement could lead to Zhan Long Shan shattering. The latter was indeed stable, but the "Rare Origin Stone" required was simply a bottomless pit.

As soon as the 【Main Weapon Forging +2 Permission】 was in hand, Su Xiao chose to use it. A notification appeared.

【To perform this main weapon reinforcement, you must temporarily submit Zhan Long Shan to the Samsara Paradise. Reinforcement will be completed in 3 hours and 24 minutes.】

After temporarily submitting Zhan Long Shan, Su Xiao looked at Amu. This simple-minded ox had been very important in this battle. He checked Amu's current attributes.

Name: Gluttonous Angry Ox, Amu.

Rank: Follower.

Hunger: 0/100 (Currently in a satiated state).

Maximum Health: 600%.

True Strength: 890 points (Not entered outlier hunger, not entered "Gluttony Original Sin" state).

True Agility: 780 points (Not entered outlier hunger, not entered "Gluttony Original Sin" state).

True Stamina: 1150 points (Not entered outlier hunger, not entered "Gluttony Original Sin" state).

Intelligence: 5 points (Abyssal cost).

Charisma: 0 points (Abyssal cost).

Body Comprehensive Defense: 720 points (This characteristic covers body strength, body defense, and all-attribute abnormality resistance).

Skill 1: Abyssal Physique (Passive, Lv. EX): Maximum health +500%, recovers 1.5% of maximum health per second. "Body Comprehensive Defense upper limit potential" reaches the Abyssal system upper limit tier. As a cost, his body energy enters an un-mobilizable state, having been deeply fused into his body cells.

Skill 2: Undying Battle Ox (Passive, Lv. EX): Amu gains body comprehensive defense equal to (Strength + Agility + Stamina) × 55% (currently increasing by 1551 points). For every 30% of health lost, his body comprehensive defense will increase by 1 time (currently can stack up to 5 times).

Skill 3: True Defense (Passive, Lv. EX): Amu gains "True Body Defense" equal to current "Body Comprehensive Defense" × 0.15.

Notification: "True Body Defense" is an absolute-level defense that will increase damage reduction incrementally as current health decreases.

Skill 4: Gluttonous Stomach (Core Passive, Lv. EX): Amu can permanently increase "Maximum Health Upper Limit," "True Stamina," and "Body Comprehensive Defense" by devouring the flesh, heart, etc., of powerful Abyssal beings.

Skill 5: Outlier Gluttony (Abyssal Passive, Lv. EX, Unique): When Amu is more than 10 kilometers away from his master (Su Xiao), his "Gluttony Original Sin" will gradually awaken. Endowed by the power of the Abyss, he will "super-massively" continuously increase strength, agility, and stamina, while also becoming increasingly dangerous as his "hunger" increases, and his level of rationality will gradually decrease. During this period, he will actively search for and devour Abyssal creatures. If there are no Abyssal creatures in a large area, Amu will instead search for powerful dark-type creatures to kill and devour.

Warning: Amu in this stage is extremely dangerous.

Notification: When Amu's "hunger" is higher than 50 points, Amu will recover a small amount of rationality, but will still be an "extremely dangerous unit."

Notification: When the distance between Amu and his master (Su Xiao) is again less than 30 meters, Amu will quickly recover to a normal state of rationality, escaping the "Gluttony Original Sin" and "outlier state."

If one didn't look at the "Outlier Gluttony" ability, Amu's improvement could be summed up in two words: resistant to beating. Resistant to beating to the extreme. It was no wonder that Amu didn't die even after being hit by such terrifying attacks from the Abyss Ancient Dragon.

Having absorbed 32 portions of "Abyssal Source Matter," plus the previous improvement from the 【Follower Promotion Badge】, and with his maximum health reaching 600%, Amu's health should have reached an exaggerated level.

With sufficiently formidable health, plus Amu's core being stacking armor defense, as he gets injured, his comprehensive body defense will reach an astonishing 11355 points.

In future confrontations with powerful enemies, Amu can just go up and take the beating first. Now, it's not about falling after taking one ultimate move; it requires ultimate-level abilities to bombard him, plus bringing out trump cards, to even have a chance of knocking Amu down.

Knocking Amu down was already not easy, and killing him was very, very difficult. This was the characteristic of the armor-stacking school. Among the three tank systems of the Watcher Paradise—Qingtian, Handi, and Eternal Spirits—the core passive of the Eternal Spirits tank system was "True Body Defense." Amu had actually obtained this, which showed that Eternal Spirits must have a certain connection with the Abyssal system.

The characteristic of Eternal Spirits was that they were very difficult to kill; the more injured they were, the stronger their body defense became.

That is to say, after Amu is knocked down, after lying nearby for a while, he will suddenly jump up, roar with a moo, and charge toward the enemy, helping Su Xiao block the enemy for a while in a death battle, giving Su Xiao a chance to recover and catch his breath.

Su Xiao checked the notification. The gains from this kill were indeed not small.

【Notification: You have slain the Abyss Ancient Dragon.】

【You have obtained 30,000 Hunter Gold Coins.】

【You have obtained Abyssal Treasure Chest: Ancient Flying Dragon.】

Good news: another top-tier treasure chest.

Bad news: it was another top-tier Abyssal treasure chest.

Su Xiao checked the "Book of Original Sin" in his storage space. It already contained six "Big Daddy" level "Original Sin Objects." He really couldn't add another one. That would truly cause big problems. At the very least, before the "Book of Original Sin" completed its thorough transformation, such a situation could not be allowed to happen.

Compared to this, the situation at Shelter City: Doan was truly imminent. Su Xiao opened the world contact platform of this world and checked the list, finding that Hao Chou's avatar had turned gray. Hao Chou was dead.

Hao Chou had indeed just promoted to the Supreme Tier, but this guy was in the top tier of the absolute strong. After promoting to the Supreme Tier, he wasn't weak. Conversely, the Soul Master and Aurora, who had temporarily cooperated with him to deal with the Priest, hadn't died. Su Xiao didn't believe there was no problem with this.

The Priest and the Soul Master being hostile in this world was, no matter how one looked at it, a matter of course. But the two old schemers had been clashing for so long without causing much of a stir, which was unreasonable.

If the matter couldn't be figured out, he might as well change his thinking. Was there a possibility that the Soul Master coming to this world was setting a trap from the beginning?

First, determine one point: was the Soul Master truly the kind of guy who had to desperately protect the "Soul Mark" and was nothing without it? Clearly, he was not.

Hao Chou had come to this world tracking the "Soul Mark" holder, the Soul Master, wanting to deal with the Priest through a temporary alliance. The scene where Su Xiao and the Priest schemed to kill the Platinum Apostle had given Hao Chou psychological trauma.

Clearly, Hao Chou's simple plan had succeeded.

But if one changed the thinking, after the Soul Master sensed the revival of the Dawn Paradise, his first thought might not be to continue relying on the "Soul Mark" to strengthen his own power.

【"Soul Mark" ability: The holder of the "Soul Mark" can devour the souls of others, permanently increasing soul strength through the devoured souls, and absorb this person's ability, permanently obtaining one of this person's abilities (each time, one can choose 1-2 from all the victim's abilities).】

One didn't need to think to know that the Soul Master was a passive-stacking maniac of the soul system. One could imagine this guy's strength. It was no wonder there were rumors that the "Soul Mark" was the strongest of the five forbidden marks.

Assuming the Soul Master was an old schemer good at trade-offs, after reaching the Supreme Tier, he wouldn't prepare to continue relying on the "Soul Mark." Instead, actively submitting to the "Dawn Paradise" as an existing violator was undoubtedly a wise move.

The Dawn Paradise hadn't revived for long. A Supreme violator like the Soul Master, who had strength and strategy, would certainly be recruited and given very high permission and resource judgment inclination. But the "Forbidden Mark" was something the Dawn Paradise absolutely did not allow violators to possess under notarization, except for the Priest.

Simply stripping away this "Forbidden Mark" seemed the fastest, but if he participated in the recovery of other "Forbidden Marks," that would clearly gain several times the initial permission and resource judgment inclination compared to simply defecting.

Then, the cooperation between the Priest and the Soul Master must have been to hook Hao Chou.

Su Xiao wouldn't decide his subsequent plans based on these guesses, but this didn't prevent him from taking precautions.

And, if these guesses were true, then he would have to face two old schemers. He was certain that he couldn't out-scheme them, so he could only rely on wisdom. Thinking to this point, his hand subconsciously pressed on the end of the hilt—cough, no, it was the end of wisdom.

He determined that these were two formidable enemies in the Supreme Tier from now on. But in the entire stage of this world, even if those two guys joined forces, they shouldn't be able to beat him, who had just spent 120 "initial skill points" all on Swordsmanship Master.

Weighing it, Su Xiao didn't believe that the Priest and the Soul Master would destroy Shelter City: Doan. That was the core area notarized by the Tree of the Void for this world. If that were destroyed, it wouldn't just be him; everyone's mission would immediately fail. Su Xiao didn't believe that the Priest, now a violator of the Dawn Paradise, wouldn't be implicated by this.

So Su Xiao first had to go to Empress City to resolve a hidden danger.

At this moment, Empress City: District 0, inside the luxurious bedroom of the Lin Yin Manor.

Lady Scorpion was worried. This trip to the Corrupt King City not only failed to surround the Law-Breaker but also resulted in the death of a capable confidant. Although the other party would "resurrect" in a few years, Lady Scorpion knew that it would no longer be the loyal El.

"Empress, we..."

With a pale face and most of his body composed of gray-white matter, Bergil spoke, but the words stuck in his throat, unable to be uttered. They had poured too much heart and soul into the Empress City; to abandon it like this was truly unbearable. Yet, if that Law-Breaker came knocking, who could stop him?

"Empress, I will protect you with my life. If that Law-Breaker dares to come, I will make him pay the price."

Ehao spoke. If he weren't covered in bloodstains, looking like a braised pig knuckle tied with string to prevent it from falling apart, his words might have had some persuasiveness.

Lady Scorpion sighed inwardly. She had never doubted Ehao's loyalty. As for letting Ehao fight that Law-Breaker to the death, Lady Scorpion sighed again. She was indeed an Abyssal descendant, but not a devil without a conscience. Although her conscience was small, letting Ehao fight that Law-Breaker one-on-one was truly...

"Empress, even you don't believe me!"

Ehao was very sad. Bergil's old face twitched. In this situation, one must never laugh.

"Bergil, did you see the Council Chairman when you went to Molten City urgently this time?"

Hearing Lady Scorpion's question, a trace of fear appeared in Bergil's eyes, and he said: "Council Chairman, he is a bit... strange."

"How strange?"

"He, he has mushrooms growing on his head."

"Hmm?"

Because she was too surprised, Lady Scorpion's "Hmm?" actually had a bit of a dignified-yet-broken contrast. It wasn't that Lady Scorpion couldn't maintain her strong demeanor; it was just that she had been hit by one thing after another recently, and her heart had become a bit resigned. She had accumulated wealth for so long, and it was all gone, all gone!

"Growing mushrooms?"

"Yes, and Council Chairman, he is sometimes a bit... sluggish?"

Hearing Bergil say this, Lady Scorpion felt even more guilty. She felt that it was the bottle of 【Ancient Dragon Secret Medicine】 she sold to the Council Chairman that caused him to be like this.

The original site of the Corrupt King City. The black flames here had subsided. In the area where the King's Palace once stood, there were still some building walls remaining. If one walked into these building remains, one would see a strange tree.

This tree had the color of Abyssal woodification, and it was two trees spiraling and entwined together. What was even more peculiar was that the roots of the two entwined trees had some distance between them; they grew toward each other and finally entwined.

This made their originally incomplete tree trunks become complete after entwining together. Everything was destined.

Two figures, one burly and one slender, walked into the building remains. The slender figure walked forward, wearing a chest wrap, a loose white shirt open without buttons, and ultra-short shorts. She put her hands on her hips and leaned forward to look at the tree.

"So, this is the friend you're looking for?"

Magic Scythe: Aina deliberately tilted her head, looking at the Abyssal Archbishop with one eye larger than the other. The smile-but-not-smile expression on her face could only be described as maxed-out sarcasm.

The Abyssal Archbishop remained silent with a dark face, stepped forward, and placed one hand on the tree trunk. Confirming that the Twin Kings were completely dead, the corner of his eye couldn't help but twitch.

"You might as well stop calling yourself the Abyssal Archbishop and just call yourself the God of Death. Whoever you visit dies; you are simply a friend-killer."

Magic Scythe: Aina's words made the Abyssal Archbishop's face look even worse. Having someone with a sharp tongue by his side was already annoying. The key was that there was nothing he could refute in her words, which made him feel even more depressed.

The Abyssal Archbishop spoke in a deep voice: "This time, go find your friend."

"Ahahaha," Magic Scythe: Aina laughed a few times and then stopped abruptly. She spread her hands and said: "I have no friends."

"Since that's the case, don't question my choice."

"Fine, fine, fine, listen to you, listen to you. Tell me, who are we going to choose a memorial day for next?"

Hearing Magic Scythe: Aina's words, the Abyssal Archbishop didn't even pay attention to her and turned to leave.

"Alright, alright, I was wrong. Next, who are we going to find?"

Magic Scythe: Aina chased after the Abyssal Archbishop. The Abyssal Archbishop said without looking back: "The old immortal of this world, Council Chairman: Ergubaya."

Molten City: Inner City District, inside the inner hall of the Council Hall.

One could hear a pin drop in the inner hall. All the surviving members of the Dukain family, except for Lady Scorpion and her two confidants, were here, making the place packed.

The members of the Dukain family were all different in appearance. If there was one thing they had in common, it was their rich dark aura. This was the characteristic of the Dukain family: darkness and domination.

At this moment, the Dukain family members sitting below were all lowering their heads with particularly serious expressions. It could be seen that their ability to hold back laughter was truly quite impressive.

After all, sitting at the head was Council Chairman: Ergubaya, who looked like a dying little old man, with a fleshy mushroom growing on top of his head, and on the cap of this mushroom, there were several smaller mushrooms of the same kind.

"I think you all understand what I've said, so it wasn't in vain that I talked to you for so long."

Council Chairman: Ergubaya suddenly spoke. The Dukain family members below were all confused. They looked at each other, and although they saw more confusion on each other's faces, they wisely chose not to speak. They could all see that the Council Chairman was a bit strange.

"Good, next, arrange it as I said. You all go down."

Hearing this, the even more confused Dukain family members walked out one after another. After everyone left, Council Chairman: Ergubaya reached up to touch his head. He naturally knew about the mushroom on his head, his current state of being clear-headed at times and muddled at others, and that the problem lay in that bottle of potion. But compared to seeking revenge on Lady Scorpion, resolving the current predicament was more important.

Council Chairman: Ergubaya stepped toward the inner side. Through a spiral staircase, he arrived at his storage room. After hesitating for a long time, he opened a secret door. After walking into it, the aura of Original Sin that made his heart panic came from a murky yellow, semi-transparent eyeball.

He had discovered this object in the family holy land, which was the Abyssal near-zone, and confirmed that this was a powerful "Original Sin Object" that was about to reach the top tier, only one most critical step away.

Logically, he should have walked away immediately and left this thing in the Abyssal near-zone. Unfortunately, when Council Chairman: Ergubaya came to his senses, this object was already in his treasury. Being soul-slashed twice by Green Gillian back then had caused him to lose his former powerful will.

The good news was that this "Original Sin Object," which he had never heard of, seemed to have just appeared or awakened and was in a semi-"sleeping" state. Council Chairman: Ergubaya's thought a while ago was to just pretend this treasury didn't exist.

Now, Council Chairman: Ergubaya could only come here. He had no idea what kind of evil thing he was entangled with. The worst possibility was an Astral Alien Existence from the First Epoch.

That's right, in fact, the true name of the Alien Existences was Astral Alien Existence. It was just that because the most powerful few among them—the Frenzy of Growth, the Candle Woman, and the Lord of the Old Days—had always stayed in the unknown regions of the Void, by the Third Epoch, Astral Alien Existence was renamed Void Alien Existence.

As for what this Original Sin Object that Council Chairman: Ergubaya encountered was, the answer was: "Eye of Greed."

Come to think of it, this thing had too much causal relationship with Su Xiao. The appearance of this thing was due to two things.

1. Chapter of Greed.

2. Concentrated Abyssal Source Matter Crystal (???).

The former needed no explanation; it was the previous generation holder pitting the current generation holder. After Su Xiao super-enhanced it, he abandoned ownership, letting it return to an ownerless state.

Relying on the "Chapter of Greed," it was, of course, impossible to become an Original Sin Object. The key point lay in 【Concentrated Abyssal Source Matter Crystal (???)】. The origin of this thing was huge; it was an object born when the Witch World promoted to a "Transcendence World."

All along, this thing had been sealed. The reason was only known to the First Generation Moon Witch. Now it seemed that the First Generation Moon Witch had truly broken her heart for the Witch World. If it weren't for her, using herself and the moon of the Witch World at the beginning to seal 【Concentrated Abyssal Source Matter Crystal (???)】, this thing would have become an "Original Sin Object" in the Second Epoch.

And it would have been an "Original Sin Object" with very terrifying characteristics. One of the roots of the Witch World was "Evil Change."

Subsequently, this thing ended up in Su Xiao's hands. He continued to suppress this unawakened object through the Eternal Light World and the Demon Insect Clan base nest of the Eternal Light World. The result was that this unawakened object caused the world power consumption of the base nest to soar by 30%. This was still based on the suppression of a "Former Transcendence World."

What was worse was that Su Xiao found this suppression becoming increasingly loose. Later, he simply let the "Chapter of Greed" devour this thing.

Now it seemed that the "Chapter of Greed" didn't succeed in devouring it, which was inevitable. However, this "Original Sin Object," which finally awakened, had its original sin as "Greed" because it counter-devoured the "Chapter of Greed."

In terms of danger level, it was roughly at the level of 92-95. It seemed not far from the 100 of the Big Daddy level, but back then, it was so difficult for the "Dark Crown" to go from 99.5 to 100.

What was more important was that "Greed Original Sin" currently corresponded to the "Abyssal Jar." If the "Eye of Greed" wanted to promote to the Big Daddy level, it would definitely have to face the "Abyssal Jar." No, it would have to face the "Abyssal Jar" and Caesar. These two guys were birds of a feather + colluding with each other.

And facing Caesar, there was a high probability of facing Su Xiao later. After facing Su Xiao, it would become: this ancient book is your eternal home.

However, all of this was just a possibility. Whether the "Eye of Greed" could promote to the Big Daddy level was still unknown.

Council Chairman: Ergubaya had encountered a dead mouse with a blind cat this time. The "Eye of Greed" and the unknown Void Alien Existence had just met, and there were signs of a confrontation.

This caused a trace of a smile to finally bloom on Council Chairman: Ergubaya's wrinkled old face. But before this smile could bloom, with a swoosh, the "Eye of Greed" submerged into Council Chairman: Ergubaya's right eye socket, quickly devouring his original right eye and taking its place.

A hair-raising scene occurred. Many eyes grew on the mushroom on Council Chairman: Ergubaya's head, and mushrooms grew on the eyes. In just a few seconds, Council Chairman: Ergubaya's head height broke through three meters from the original 50 centimeters.

Two pieces of news, one good and one bad, arrived on Council Chairman: Ergubaya.

Good news: the "Eye of Greed" and the unknown Void Alien Existence were really fighting.

Bad news: the "Eye of Greed" and the unknown Void Alien Existence were fighting inside Council Chairman's body.

Council Chairman: Ergubaya was stunned for a few seconds, and then his face became particularly ugly. The two terrifying guys inside his body wouldn't kill him for the time being, but this situation was not much better than being dead.

Council Chairman: Ergubaya walked out of the treasury with an ugly face, but just as he reached the door of the treasury.

With a bang, Council Chairman: Ergubaya's head hit the door frame of the treasury, which was more than four meters high, causing his old face to twitch.

Empress City: District 0, inside the courtyard of the Lin Yin Manor.

The Lord Train stopped. Su Xiao walked down the metal steps. Within sight were secondary descendants under Lady Scorpion, as well as the Fallen. Some secondary descendants had withdrawn from the Corrupt King City along with Lady Scorpion during the chaotic battle. Now, seeing Su Xiao, they were trembling with fear.

Su Xiao ignored these secondary descendants and walked toward the luxurious castle of the manor. Under the "eager escort" of a group of secondary descendants, he arrived at the door of the bedroom. Seemingly having received Lady Scorpion's order, the surrounding secondary descendants retreated one after another.

The palace door opened, and Su Xiao walked into the bedroom, followed by Amu. Judging from Amu's gaze at the surrounding dark creatures, he seemed to be hungry again.

Su Xiao walked into the bedroom. Lady Scorpion's expression was as usual, Bergil's aura was vigilant, and as for Ehao, this guy wasn't afraid at all just now, but now he wasn't as tough as before.

Su Xiao's aura was already very terrifying, and combined with his height of four meters, Amu standing behind Su Xiao had a maxed-out sense of oppression.

Not to mention Su Xiao's astonishing aura after just slaying a dragon, just Amu alone—the current Amu was very interested in Abyssal creatures. So, as soon as he entered the bedroom, he noticed the three Abyssal descendants here.

Amu first looked at Lady Scorpion. He had always kept in mind that his boss didn't allow him to eat highly humanoid or human creatures. Plus, this Abyssal descendant was too thin and had no meat to eat. He looked at Bergil.

Amu's gaze made Bergil's anus tighten. The reason was that in all his years of roaming the Astral Realm, he had faced gazes with strong killing intent, hatred, hostility, etc., but like this minotaur... no, this guy should be called a glutton. Bergil had truly experienced this kind of gaze for the first time.

Actually, Bergil was overthinking it. Amu just glanced at him and lost interest. Being a humanoid creature and looking old, Amu wouldn't eat him unless he was hungry to the point of losing his rationality.

Therefore, Amu's gaze turned to Ehao. Because he was almost slashed to pieces by Su Xiao with "Extreme Blade: World," Ehao was covered in bone-deep wounds.

Combined with the triple soul-slashing that was difficult to heal, and Ehao's fat body that was impossible to stitch, the not-so-skilled doctors in Empress City could only use the thickest treatment thread to bind all of Ehao's wounds. In this way, Ehao really looked like a freshly braised, fat, delicious pig knuckle.

After Amu saw Ehao, his gaze couldn't move away. Because this Abyssal descendant was not a highly humanoid creature, not to mention the eyes all over his body, his arms were like beast muscle arms, his head was triangular, his torso had some beastly forms, and, Ehao now looked truly very "delicious." Amu was looking at him hungrily.

"Amu, hungry."

Amu said to Su Xiao with a bit of grievance, not showing the slightest gluttonous ferocity from just now.

"Endure, eat if we can't talk it out."

"Amu."

Amu never opposed—no, he never questioned Su Xiao's decision in the slightest. His gaze turned to Ehao, to prevent this "braised pig knuckle" from running away early.
