Chapter 304: I’ll accompany you on this escapade

The three large-scale ‘Apocalypses’ that nearly wiped out humans were composed of three parts. Firstly, it was the Original Sin of Calamity that existed for only half an hour. Secondly, the Seven Deadly Sins would wreck havoc for three days. Thirdly, all sorts of natural disasters like earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions would constantly occur.

The Original Sin of Calamity was no doubt the strongest existence. Although it was unknown why the Original Sin of Calamity would only exist for half an hour, it would be able to kill nearly all the strongest people in the human world in the thirty minutes. Ten thousand years ago, the pixie species which Kali was from had all its strongest figures annihilated by the Original Sin of Calamity, including her mother and grandmother.

And in the next three days, the Seven Deadly Sins—”Pride”, “Envy”, “Gluttony”, “Lust”, “Wrath”, “Sloth” and “Greed”—would begin slaughtering humans. As the Original Sin of Calamity had killed all the strong in the human world, the remaining humans were unable to withstand the wanton destruction of the Deadly Sins. Usually, there would be an extremely small number of people that could luckily survive after three days. They would then become the last members of humanity.

However, it appeared as though once the human population reached a particular number, the Apocalypse would befall. Over the ten thousand years, the Apocalypse had happened thrice, and based on time, the fourth Apocalypse was probably in the near future.

When the first Apocalypse happened ten thousand years ago, Kali was just an innocent young girl. In human equivalent, she was only twelve or thirteen years old. Back then, she had witnessed the tragedy of the pixie species’ downfall.

Accordingly, she should have died during the three days the Deadly Sins wrecked havoc, but her pixie bloodline was extremely pure. She was luckily chosen by the soon-to-wither World Tree to be its successor, therefore, she was lucky to survive.

Later on, she began searching for all sorts of inheritance of mighty figures in the human world, and slowly, she became more powerful. Following that she went to countless planes of existence for the next nine thousand years.

During the nine thousand years, she became extremely powerful. She then returned to the human world and went into slumber for a thousand years, so as to wait for the fourth Apocalypse to happen.

She did not know if her present strength was sufficient to defeat the Original Sin of Calamity, but she had to give it a try.

Not long ago, Shi Xiaobai had pulled out a sealing sword in the Underworld. This resulted in the tiny black-lit person, named ‘Gluttony’ to be revealed. This gave Kali and excellent opportunity.

This was because the Original Sin of Calamity would hide in the human world every time. It would not even know its own identity until the Apocalypse happened, only then would it awaken.

In the first apocalypse, the “Original Sin of Calamity” was a weak blind old man.

In the second apocalypse, it was a king who ruled over half a continent.

In the third apocalypse, it was a three-year-old child.

Before the Original Sin of Calamity awoke, its age, gender, status, etc did not follow any rule. Kali had previously attempted to find the Original Sin of Calamity before it awoken in them, but she did not manage it.

And with ‘Gluttony’ prematurely appearing, it gave Kali a golden opportunity. This was because ‘Gluttony’ might instinctively search for the awakener of the Original Sin of Calamity, or the other Deadly Sins that were hidden.

Therefore, Kali did not immediately kill ‘Gluttony’, which had wrecked havoc in the human world three times. Instead, she created a realm seal and used it as bait, in the hopes of catching bigger fish.

And at this moment in time, it appeared as though the bait had taken the initiative to search for the big fish?

For ‘Gluttony’ to risk sealing itself to the tenth level of the Psionic Mortal Realm, so as to not activate the self-destruct mechanism, it had entered the fifth level of Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower. It proved that there was an existence ‘Gluttony’ had to carefully look for in the fifth level of the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower.

Other than the Original Sin of Calamity and the other Deadly Sins, who else could such an existence be?

Kali suddenly turned nervous. She had been in training for nine thousand years and had been around for ten thousand years. She did to avenge her family and clansmen, and at this moment, the awakener of the Original Sin of Calamity had apparently been revealed.

How could she not be excited?

Kali stared intently at the screen of light. The tiny black-lit person bit through a thick spatial barrier and constantly forged ahead. A few minutes later, it finally tore through the chaotic flow of space, and reached the fifth level of the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower!

After it reached the fifth level of the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower, it did not act like it usually did, devouring everything. Instead, it was moving towards a particular direction at an extremely fast speed, as it managed to curb its instinctual desires!

Kali was unable to calm down at this moment. Similarly, she was looking forward to it.

Where was Gluttony heading?

What was it looking for?

The answer would soon be revealed.

…

…

Fifth level of the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower

Mu Yuesheng, Mozzie, and Kevin were guarding Shi Xiaobai beside him, while warily watching their surroundings.

Pulp Farmer, Liu Yu, and Zhou Chuchu stood ten meters away to defend.

Liu Yu and Zhou Chuchu had brought a tiny portion of the blood in different directions, but very soon, the blood escaped their imprisonment, so they could only return.

The top ten rookies in the official forecast were patrolling the outer perimeter, while three rookies defended from a close proximity. Such a defense lineup caused many rookies that were eager to attempt an attack to retreat.

Of course, there were a few desperate rookies that took the risk and tried sneaking in an attack, but they ended up in failure.

They attempted running away after their failure, but there was no way they could escape Pulp Farmer and company’s clutches. All of them paid the terrible price of being eliminated due to their impulsive actions.

Just thirty seconds ago, the authoritative voice reminded everyone that there was only one minute left until the end of the present Life and Death Assault round.

“Another thirty seconds.”

Mu Yuesheng said, “We have to be even more vigilant. There might be even more people who can’t tolerate it in the final thirty seconds and end up choosing to take the risk.”

Mozzie and Kevin nodded heavily as they warily concentrated on their surroundings.

Whether it would end in perfect success or complete failure depended on these final thirty seconds.

The mountain was silent. Other than the soft sounds of breathing as well as Pulp Farmer and company deliberately softening their footsteps, there was no other sound except the occasional breeze and the rustling of leaves.

The six people were fully vigilant of the slightest movements around them.

Time quietly passed. One second, two seconds, three seconds…

No one came to the very end. Not a single one.

At this final moment, it appeared as though the nefarious rookies had given up?

“Something’s coming!”

Pulp Farmer suddenly shouted. Everyone hurriedly turned their heads. Nothing appeared out of the dark forest trail, but they could simultaneously sense a terrifying aura.

Everyone’s expression changed drastically. They could not repress an overwhelming fear that arose from their hearts.
