Seven Deadly Sins System

After the body of the First Sun King was enveloped by countless dark shadows, a chewing sound soon echoed throughout this area and would make any ordinary person who heard it terrified.

A few seconds later, the sound finally came to an end, as the dark shadows returned to the small dagger in the Holy Pope's hand and were quickly absorbed.

Seeing this, the Holy Pope and the Demon Pope turned their heads in unison to look at the place where the First Sun King originally stood.

Although the First Sun King was still standing there, his appearance had now changed entirely.

Whether it was in his head, torso, legs, or hands, the flesh on his body had completely disappeared and he had become unrecognizable, having turned into a collection of rotten, thin bones.

There was a faint green fire burning in each of his eye sockets, and it would fluctuate from time to time and reveal that this undead creature still possessed certain traces of intelligence.

Yet, it was very clear that the First Sun King, the person who had unified this world and was the person closest to breaking through the God Realm had died!

And he had even died in such an anticlimactic manner!

When the Holy Pope looked at what remained of the First Sun King, he waved his right hand, causing some purple mist to flow out of the First Sun King's body and gather in his palm.

This purple mist seemingly had a will of its own, as it exuded a majestic aura and struggled to escape his grasp.

However, the Holy Pope's hand was like a pincer and tightly held it in place.

While this was going on, the Demon Pope's figure flashed next to the Holy Pope and he lowered his head to examine this purple mist.

"What a waste!"

"Just like we originally expected, the destiny gathered on him is still not enough to open the Gate."

"We should gather the rest of it as soon as possible and make sure that the two of them don't escape.", the Demon Pope looked at the Holy Pope and said.

When the Holy Pope heard his words, his eyes became a little strange.

"Don't you think it is very weird for you to speak to me like this?"

"Have you gone insane?", he couldn't help but ask.

In response, the Demon Pope shook his head with a calm expression:

"Don't worry, if I had gone insane, you'd also be crazy by now."

As he said this, the Demon Pope turned his head and his eyes seemed to travel through the various landscapes, until his gaze finally landed on his target.

Without giving the Holy Pope any chance to speak, he rushed in that direction.

Only his last words echoed in this place and rang in the Holy Pope's ears:

"After all, you and I are the same person."

Watching the Demon Pope leave, a confused expression appeared on the Holy Pope's face for a brief moment, but it quickly disappeared and was replaced by a determined look.

"Yes, you, no 'I' am right. We are the same person...", he muttered in a low voice, seemingly wanting to convince himself.

In the end, the Holy Pope shook his head and stored the purple mist, the so-called destiny, away.

Then, he extended his perception, searching for a certain aura.

It only took a few seconds for him to find what he was looking for and when he did, his figure turned into a golden light and rushed towards it.

"Boom!"

A loud sonic boom was produced as he flew in the air and the scenes around him turned into still images as if they had turned into a low-quality movie.

Although the aura he had previously sensed was pretty far, the Holy Pope's strength was extraordinary, and before long, he had arrived at the location of this aura.

Or to be more accurate, he had arrived at the location of the person to who this aura belonged.

This person was a middle-aged man who had a calm and indifferent expression and was sitting on the shoulder of a headless giant that was running away.

"Crack!"

The moment the Holy Pope arrived above Mu Huanzhi, he didn't hesitate at all and urged his aura to suppress him.

As a result, space cracks started forming around Mu Huanzhi, while the Headless Giant below instantly lost its footing and was brought to its knees.

The face of Mu Huanzhi turned pale when he noticed this aura and he tried to control the Headless Giant to stand up again, but he discovered that his efforts were meaningless.

Instead, as he urged the Headless Giant to stand up, many red threads emerged from its body and appeared outside, before they started shattering.

"Pop! Pop! Pop!"

A barely noticeable noise echoed in Mu Huanzhi's ears and the next second, he was shocked to discover that his precious creation, the body of the Headless Giant, started fragmenting.

The red threads that previously held them together broke into pieces, and their support, the human beings that were previously "sewed" together fell to the ground.

Soon, a huge pile of confused human beings appeared on the ground, with Mu Huanzhi standing on top of it.

"Huh? Interesting..."

While Mu Huanzhi was still shocked, a young male voice came from above his head and woke him up.

When he realized the seriousness of the situation, Mu Huanzhi didn't think of fighting back but was about to use another trump card and try to escape.

"Bang!"

Unfortunately, before he could do so, his head exploded and turned into a bloody mist.

The moment he died, the vitality of the people below slowly burnt away and they soon turned into lifeless corpses.

The Holy Pope looked at this scene without any change on his face and just like before, he waved his hand and a puff of purple smoke rushed out of Mu Huanzhi's body and into his palm.

Compared to the purple mist found in the body of the First Sun King, this purple mist was slightly less, but it still exuded a majestic aura and wanted to struggle.

Of course, no matter how hard it tried, it remained within the Holy Pope's control.

"Although this extraterrestrial demon is quite lucky, this destiny is not enough to open the Gate."

"Fortunately, there is still the Saint..."

"As long I get her destiny, my thousands-year-old plan will finally be completed.", the Holy Pope whispered in a low voice and his voice was filled with inexplicable confidence.

However, just when he finished his words, his expression changed.

His face suddenly turned a little pale, and he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.

At the same time, he felt a sharp pain on the left side of his chest, as if a hand was clutching his heart and wished to break it.

As if he had suffered a backlash, the aura of the Holy Pope became slightly weak and fluctuated for a few seconds, like a candle that was about to go out.

Fortunately, he soon recovered and his aura returned to normal, but his expression remained dark.

"What happened?", he muttered and couldn't help but grit his teeth in anger.

Realizing that something must have gone wrong, he didn't stay in this place any longer but rushed towards the direction the Demon Pope had previously flown in.

****

Time goes back a few minutes.

Before the First Sun King's brief appearance, and before the betrayal of the Holy Pope happened, the Holy Angel carried Chu Wuyao and Li Ruoshi in its palm, as it flew away and was trying to escape this place.

Feeling the aura of destruction behind her, Chu Wuyao's face turned a little solemn, but she then thought of something and quickly relaxed.

After she controlled the Holy Angel to fly some distance away, she suddenly stopped pouring energy into it, causing it to turn illusory and subsequently disappear.

With its disappearance, Chu Wuyao didn't continue flying but landed on the ground.

This was a relatively empty, flat area, with no traces of living creatures around nor any particular special thing about it.

Her actions surprised Li Ruoshi and made her quite puzzled about what she was doing, but Chu Wuyao didn't speak, not having the time to solve her doubts.

Instead, she carefully examined this area and started making preparations.

With a wave of her hand, countless complicated runes were carved on the ground, while many little devils were hurriedly summoned and deployed to surround this place.

Chu Wuyao didn't stop there but continued her strange actions as if she was setting up the stage of a play.

It was only a few minutes later when she noticed that a powerful aura was rushing towards this place, that Chu Wuyao stopped her actions and stood up, raising her head and taking a look at the incoming person.

This person was an old man, whose face was covered in wrinkles and whose eyes were red and filled with madness, and coupled with the long black robe he was wearing, he looked quite terrifying.

When Chu Wuyao saw him, she instantly recognized that this person was the mortal enemy of the Holy Church and one of the three strongest people in the entire Inheritance World, the Pope of the Demon Cult.

Since Chu Wuyao could see the Demon Pope, the Demon Pope was also able to spot her.

After he took a look at her, he didn't speak any nonsense.

"Boom!", space cracks formed around his figure as he directly took action.
