Chapter 955: Chapter 454: You’re Happy Too Soon (Part 2)

Some showed ecstatic joy, some were tearful, some breathed with bloodshot eyes.

Lan Shi’s expression changed, wanting to awaken his subordinates, but found their bodies quickly twisting.

One of his subordinates struggled to lift his head, only to have a face grow on his neck, that face emitting a sharp wail.

Lan Shi’s face turned pale, he had just been envisioning his future status and power with his subordinates.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, they all…

Meanwhile, the elites of the Jile Sect remained indifferent, seemingly unconcerned.

“Not everyone is qualified for the pilgrimage. Fortunately, you have this qualification…” A Church elite glanced at Lan Shi, suppressing his disdain: “Don’t embarrass the master, follow along!”

“Yes, yes!” Lan Shi awoke as from a dream, nodding repeatedly, showing extreme humility.

As a believer of the Jile Sect, and still a local believer, naturally, he should not have been able to come here.

But he indeed made significant contributions, welcoming back the Divine Chosen. He might even become a Divine Chosen Servant, or even a Demon General.

This made many inside the Church envious.

In fact, Lan Shi scoffed inwardly.

As someone who climbed from the bottom, he naturally wasn’t as simple as he appeared.

‘Just wait. Once the master is given a name, I will rise along with him. Then, you all will pay the price.’ Lan Shi swore silently.

Now, this sub-branch is soon to have two Divine Chosen.

The clash of interests will inevitably trigger a struggle.

And that is his forte!

He will eliminate dissent for the master and gain even greater power and authority!

Li Ye naturally knew nothing about this, or rather, didn’t care.

He even hoped the Church would start internal conflicts.

And as he walked through the palace doors, he clearly felt the surrounding space had changed.

Countless riches appeared, gold blocks the thickness of arms, palm-sized gems. Scattered all over the place.

Among them, there were also various high-grade magic potions and powerful spiritual ability equipment emitting various waves.

Li Ye even saw the No Regret Gem.

The supposed rare No Regret Gems were plentiful at Li Ye’s feet, seemingly within reach if he just bent to pick them.

Li Ye’s expression shifted slightly, looking at the adjacent Demon General: “What? Using the Six Rings to tempt me?”

Li Ye naturally understood what he encountered, that was the Extreme Bliss Six Rings. It is said to be in the depth of the Void Realm’s chaos.

To see the Lord of Pleasure, one must pass through the region known as the Extreme Bliss Six Rings.

Each area represents an extreme desire, every creature passing through would be tempted and corrupted by it.

They are greed, gluttony, lust, pride, vanity, and sloth.

This is also one of the means by which the Void Realm corrupts Spiritual Ability Users, though its Six Rings are a lower version.

Currently, Li Ye estimated that he stepped into the so-called Greed Ring of the Six Rings.

“Please forgive us, my lord, this is our most sacred ritual.” The two Demon Generals whispered.

“Oh?” Li Ye’s eyes narrowed slightly: “You’re planning to use the Six Rings to gauge my desires?”

With Li Ye’s understanding of the Six Rings, if in the Third Ring, they saw the bodies of dolls and cheese…

Li Ye truly would kill.

“No, my lord, we wouldn’t dare, and cannot peek into your desires.” The two Demon Generals immediately bowed: “We can’t see what you see.”

“Then let’s see what’s different about the Six Rings you created.” Li Ye continued onward.

While some of Lan Shi’s subordinates were left behind.

So much precious wealth stirred their inner desires. What awaited them was distortion and mutation.

As Li Ye walked for several minutes, traversing countless treasures, the scene before him changed again.

He saw countless delicacies and fine wines.

Countless foods were laid out in this area, and a river formed by fine wine flowed.

The mouthwatering aroma seemed to tempt people’s souls, stirring their hunger step by step.

A believer driven by desire suddenly bent down and grabbed a piece of meat. After tasting a bite, he couldn’t stop. As he devoured it recklessly, his body visibly grew obese, and began to distort.

This made Lan Shi’s face unpleasant, he had brought many, hoping they could rise together, forming a certain base, but unexpectedly each one got trapped.

Meanwhile, Li Ye had no reaction, continuing forward: “Lan Shi, step back. I don’t want my servants to be lost here.”

“Yes!” Lan Shi nearly cried with joy.

He of course knew, if he successfully passed through the Six Rings, the glory he would receive.

But he didn’t dare, didn’t you see that aside from those two Demon Generals, the rest of the church’s elite also didn’t dare to move forward?

The next second, countless enticing figures appeared before Li Yelai’s eyes.

They varied in style, pure, fiery, cold, charming, and alluring.

They hugged, kissed, rubbed against each other, inviting Li Yelai to join in the ultimate pleasure.

After greed and gluttony, came this temptation of lust.

Li Yelai saw many beautiful girls, and also some familiar ones.

“Not as pretty as them.” Li Yelai’s gaze swept over these beautiful girls, critiquing them in his heart as he continued onward.

Then, the scene suddenly changed, and those beautiful bodies disappeared, replaced by…

Thousands of Border Iron Guards equipped differently, and endless rows of soldiers.

And countless powerful Spiritual Ability Users followed on Li Yelai’s sides, as if defending their leader.

Li Yelai saw Captain Yang Chen, saw the Doll, saw Ma Hongyi, saw Hong Zhuang, saw one overlord after another, one Supreme after another, he even saw the rejuvenated King.

What’s more, Li Yelai also saw the Chaos Legion…

The Supreme Council passed, the Human Giant City, the war engine fully activated!

Over 800,000 Border Iron Guards, waiting for orders!

Tens of millions of human soldiers, waiting for orders.

The fanatical Chaos Demon Army is already in place!

All the overlords have arrived!

All the Supremes have arrived!

The King is waiting for orders!

‘Please give the order, great Supreme King!’

With the order of the Supreme King, connecting all the human giant cities. They will become the great hammer of humanity to flatten their enemies!

And Li Yelai… is that Supreme King of kings!

He controlled all the giant cities, controlled all the Chaos Power.

Holding the greatest power and authority in the world!

Li Yelai’s body was once tense, this was arrogance… no, it was the desire for ‘power’!

It really is…

‘Am I really this ambitious? Why didn’t I know myself?’

Li Yelai slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, ignoring that supreme temptation of power, continuing forward.

He heard countless praises, from his former comrades, from the civilians he saved, and from strangers he didn’t know.

They cheered with the title of hero, as if this hero named Li Yelai could drown the Forbidden Zone with a single spit.

This was vanity.

Unfortunately, Li Yelai never considered himself a hero, he passed through the Vanity Ring with ease.

Then… it was a tranquil silence.

Li Yelai knew that this was also the last ring of the Six Rings, sloth.

Some called it outright rotting, an endless fatigue pervading both body and spirit, making Li Yelai want to sink into it.

But he knew clearly, he still had more important tasks…

So, he took another step forward.

All the scenes disappeared, and he returned to the palace hall.

He had passed through the Extreme Bliss Six Rings, while the chaotic aura on him grew ever stronger. Almost at the level of Divine Chosen!

In his awareness, that Face had already appeared two-thirds… about to complete the Mimicry…

And in front of Li Yelai, a beautiful woman, dressed in luxurious yet semi-translucent gauze, covered her mouth and laughed lightly.

“To be able to pass through the Six Rings so easily, back in my day, I stayed in the Fourth Ring and Sixth Ring for a long time. It seems, you are more qualified to meet my master.”

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, my noble compatriot. You are even more handsome than I imagined.”

And Li Yelai looked at the woman in front of him, also showing a smile.

“I am very pleased as well…”

His already handsome face, coupled with that smile hiding excitement, exuded endless charm.

But in his heart, he was laughing madly.

‘You’re happy too soon!’
