Chapter 1571 - The Gluttony Soul Overlord! (2/2)

It was not that easy to become a Soul Overlord. Just as there was a limit to the number of Heavengods in this Chaotic Universe, there was also a limit to the number of Soul Overlords. Moreover, becoming a Soul Overlord required the Sin bestowed by the Soul God.

If Soul Thirteen wanted to become a Soul Overlord, he would have to acquire the Sin. Only in this way could he become a true Soul Overlord.

If he were still in the Soul Demon’s original Chaotic Universe, it might be very difficult for him to succeed. However, the Seven Sins of this Chaotic Universe had never been occupied by any Soul Demon at all. Therefore, it was actually very easy for him to become a Soul Overlord.

Rumble!

The lightning bolts were getting stronger and stronger. Soul Thirteen was always on guard. Ever since he knew there were Heavengods in this Chaotic Universe, who were not weaker than Soul Overlords, he had been very careful. Except for the one time when he struck out at that stinky chef, he had been careful to develop his power and tried not to attract the attention of those Heavengods.

Even though the Heavengods never appeared, that did not stop Soul Thirteen from being afraid of them. If he wanted to become a Soul Overlord, he needed to know how to follow his heart.

The whole imperial palace of the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty seemed to be on the verge of becoming a sea of thunder. In the heart of this sea of thunder, Soul Thirteen felt his strength growing and becoming so much stronger than before. It was a qualitative change that perfectly fused his Soul Demon’s will and his flesh.

Rumble…

After a long time, the bolts of lightning finally disappeared. All the Soul Demons were watching feverishly.

Soul Thirteen’s silver wings spread open as if to envelop the entire universe. His eyes turned scarlet, and his will spread out in all directions.

A humming sound filled the air as he began to chant under his breath. His tone was respectful, and his language was complicated and mysterious. As he chanted, his body radiated a wave of devotion.

The surrounding Soul Demons all knelt on the ground and watched respectfully at the transformations that were taking place in Soul Thirteen.

One by one, black balls of energy emerged around him. They represented the power of the origin, which seemed to be forcibly extracted from this universe. They did not belong to this universe, but they came from this universe.

Soul Thirteen opened his eyes, grinning, and looked at the seven black energy balls hovering around him. How he wished he could devour all seven of them, but he could not. They were the Power of the Seven Sins. He could only absorb one of them and then become a Soul Overlord with that one. He could not touch the second Sin—the punishment for greed was more than he could bear.

He did not dwell on it for long. He raised his hand, jerked it out, and grabbed one of them. The black energy ball swirled, dispersed, then slowly burrowed into every pore on his body.

After a while, a vertical eye gradually took shape on his forehead. As it turned, a monstrous, sinful aura burst out of it!

“The Seven Sins: pride, jealousy, rage, laziness, greed, gluttony, and lust… Any one of these Sins could make me a Soul Overlord, and I’ve chosen…”

Soul Thirteen’s eyes widened. His mouth began to grow larger at a rate visible to the naked eye, and his throat seemed to turn into a bottomless pit. Then, a terrible hunger consumed him in an instant.

“I, Soul Thirteen… choose to be a… Gluttony Soul Overlord!”

…

The color of the sky changed.

The restaurant closed for the day. Looking at the growing turnover, Bu Fang did not feel the slightest bit of relief. Instead, he felt a vague worry lingering within him. He frowned and sighed. Putting his hands behind his back, he left the restaurant.

He quietly came to the ancient Heavengod’s inheritance.

Heavengods were the strongest beings in this Chaotic Universe. By rights, they should have shown up after those Soul Demons created so much trouble, but they did not. Could it be that the Heavengods do not care about the lives of the living beings in the Chaotic Universe? With their strength, any one of them was capable of wiping out those Soul Demons in the blink of an eye.

Bu Fang was only a chef, but every man was responsible for the survival of the universe. He felt that since he lived in this world, he needed to contribute his power.

Looking at the Fruit of Law in the seal, he focused his eyes. He could sense something unusual in this matter.

Were the Heavengods unable to make a move because of some restriction, or were they deliberately not making a move?

‘Are they restricted from making a move?’ Bu Fang twitched the corner of his mouth. He still remembered the slap the Heavengod had given him, which proved that they were not restricted from making a move. ‘Then why on earth are they not showing up?’

Bu Fang frowned and stepped into the seal.

Rumbling filled the air as the seal began to rotate.

…

In the Great Netherworld, a huge tree towering into the clouds swayed its branches as if it were lashing at the stars. A figure could be seen sitting on one of the branches, dangling his legs as his eyes looked out into the depths of the vast Chaotic Universe.

A stream of cloudy yellow liquor was poured into a cup. The man, who was as beautiful as a woman, slowly poured the wine from the cup into his mouth.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk… good wine!”

Mu Hongzi lightly shook the jar in his hand, causing the wine inside to produce a splashing sound. He took a deep breath and then exhaled, his breath smelling of alcohol.

“Looks like it’s about to start… I wonder if that boy Bu Fang will survive this calamity. If he can’t make it through, there’s nothing I can do… In the worst-case scenario, he would just have to be reincarnated again.”

Mu Hongzi smiled, and his beautiful face seemed to burst into a blaze of light that caused the stars to become darker.

“What do you think… Myriad Treasure?” he said.

Under him, the Immortal Tree swayed gently as if in response, its leaves brushing against each other to fill the air with a rustling sound.
