Chapter 844: I Predict, That You Will Die Today

This kind of illusionary frustration was rather similar to the Gate of Life and Death’s illusion. Once the consciousness was confirmed to fall under the spell, the body would soon be damaged accordingly.

Not only that, but this form of dwelling into the illusion would make him trapped deeper inside the Power of the Law.

In the end, the deeper he sinks into the pitfall, the harder it will be for him to wake up.

Although the Deputy Palace Master Shen Du has a formidable strength, the outcome remains clear that he won’t be able to extricate himself from the endless nightmare!

The illusion continues.

In order to get more women to enjoy more pleasure, and to obtain the qualifications of having countless women by his side when he leaves as a victor, the Deputy Palace Master Shen Du fought day and night.

During the day, this ‘G.o.d of War’ generally conquered the enemies and plundered more beauties.

At night, a different kind of battle was lit up.

Despite this kind of never-ending battle that went on in broad daylight and abyss nights, Deputy Palace Master Shen Du did not feel a trace of fatigue. On the contrary, he felt extremely satisfied and proud of himself. If it weren’t for a sliver and faint thought of leaving that remained deep in his heart, he would even be willing to live here forever. Here, almost all the enemies were weak. Even if there were a few strong enemies, neither of them posed any threat to his life. At most, he was only worried if the women behind him that made him happy beyond comparison, would ever be injured or killed. More and more subordinates surrendered to him in admiration, and more and more women flocked over to him in order to obtain a share of his excellent seeds.

Outside in the real world, Shen Du was but a Deputy Palace Master.

But here, he was the Emperor!

An unmatched Emperor.

There were more than a thousand concubines in the palace, but no woman bored him as all of them could make him feel extremely happy. Deputy Palace Master Shen Du enjoyed this kind of life. Although he still had to leave in the end, he decided to become the owner of the entire Desire Valley. Once he obtained that t.i.tle, he would take all of the women here and leave for good. Until then, he would not consider anything else.

The Deputy Palace Master Shen Du didn’t know that behind him, there was a person watching all this quietly.

He didn’t know that Yue Yang was using him as a mirror, constantly trying to break through the Laws of the Desire Valley.

He only lives in his world of imaginary illusions.

In this phantom world, he exterminated countless non-existent centaurs, slaughtered powerful black dragons, and even defeated rather formidable opponents.

Ten years have already pa.s.sed in Yu Shen Du’s world.

There were more than 100,000 subordinates who pledged their unyielding loyalty to him and more than 10,000 women in the harem.

Every single one of them was beautiful and charming.

They all had respectively proficient abilities to please him as every pa.s.sing night, they were able to bring him supreme happiness.

However, in Yue Yang’s world, only two days and a bit more had pa.s.sed according to the real time in the Desire Valley, not even surpa.s.sing three days… The only thing in common was that Deputy Palace Master Shen Du had already spewed his body in frenzied fun.

Under the Law of Desire, Deputy Palace Master Shen Du was draining his body’s energy at an astonis.h.i.+ng rate.

This kind of drainage, paired with the intensifying and exhilarating sensation of his fantasies, misled Shen Du into thinking that he was advancing into a higher state of strength instead of realising that his energy was gradually depleting.

“Your Most Honorable and Admired Majesty, we are now only two steps away from the final summit,” The first girl that Shen Du rescued had become his favorite concubine as she was his source of happiness. Almost every night, she would come up with all kinds of fancy tricks and tactics to make him happy. The words she said just now referred to the last two strongest high rankers. They were Shen Du’s compet.i.tors, the Palace Elders who joined earlier than Shen Du himself, ‘An Sheng’ and ‘Yan Huo’.

“Yes, although they were once companions of this Great Emperor, they have been very dishonest regarding the alliance. They were dishonest and even caused quite a hurdle of troubles behind the scenes and even backstabbed us. This time, this Great Emperor will not condone their irking behaviours. The covenant is inevitable, there can only be one final winner, which is this Emperor! They disregarded the friends.h.i.+p as a fellow palace member, so don’t blame this Emperor’s cruel heart— history and honor will always be written by the victor!” Deputy Palace Master Shen Du had worked with the two palace elders and formed an alliance with them, which resulted in them defeating many enemies. Now, when it was time to turn his back on them, as the Emperor, he did not hesitate to make a decision that was impossible to do before, solidifying his eagerness to kill his former companions.

“Your Majesty is wise, and your concubines will always follow your Majesty,” The girl showed her loyalty and she was somewhat worried, “Your Majesty is invincible, but once war starts, your opponents are two people. If Your Majesty can absorb more energy, the odds of winning would be 100%…”

“Understood, I will use that secret power,”

The secret power that Deputy Hall Master Shen Du referred to was to accept the offerings of the Desire Altar. There, he would ‘connect’ with the G.o.d of Desire and gain divine power.

All he needed to do was to use his certain ‘weapon’ to triumph over the G.o.d of Desire who had descended.

T/L Note: I’m trying to keep this as literature-like as I can, the author seriously be giving words like **之神, **祭壇 and stuff. There’s literally no indication of what ** is, but it’s censored for a reason so I used the best describing word I could think of.

Everything happened as he wanted.

From Yue Yang’s distanced observance, everything was non-existent.

Even the two palace elders, An Sheng and Yan Huo, have been dead for a long time, and their souls were trapped in the Desire Valley, becoming one of the Curses of Resentment.

In the phantom world of the Deputy Palace Master Shen Du, the bare naked G.o.ddess of Desire descended, and she was so beautiful that he simply could not describe her beauty in words. He, who had won over an unknown number of women, was very excited. Hence, when the G.o.ddess asked him if he was willing to dedicate everything to G.o.d, Deputy Palace Master Shen Du agreed without any sign of consideration at all.

A brutal war broke out.

Deputy Palace Master Shen Du was in a bliss as his soul fluttered out of his body. Together with the souls of countless failed warriors, his spiritual wisdom was annihilated forever, leaving only the instincts of desire and the pain of being immersed in resentment.

After failing to pa.s.s the level, the Power of the Law took effect immediately.

As a punishment, the body of the Deputy Palace Master Shen Du turned into a huge rock composed of a stone statue made by his thoughts and hallucinations before he died, forming thousands of intercoursal stone statues or wooden sculptures. Beside him, stood the statues of Yan Huo and An Sheng who have entered the Desire Valley before. The three were exactly the same— they all died of this illusion, endless greed and perishability that they would never awaken from!

If Shen Du, the Deputy Palace Master, had a trace of sobriety, a sliver of introspection and a hint of restraint during the entire process of being infatuated, he who had great strength, might not have necessarily met this end.

Unfortunately, his name was Shen Du, but his behavior was completely different.

Yue Yang watched the whole process.

He stood up slowly only after he saw the Deputy Palace Master Shen Du completely turned into a boulder.

He has never been confused with illusionary fantasies, nor does he struggle with the temptation of ecstasy. As long as he walked over the boulders formed by these fallen warriors and reached the end of the Desire Valley, he was sure to successfully pa.s.s the level and leave the Valley.

However, Yue Yang, who had enlightened the World Creation Domain in the Gates of Life and Death, was unwilling to leave like this. In the Desire Valley, he felt that in addition to the temptation of the Law of Desire, there was also a strong force of resentment. This was something that even the Empress Fei Wen Li, could not understand. Empress Fei Wen Li was in a hurry and didn’t have any more thoughts, so she went straight to the finis.h.i.+ng line and pa.s.sed this chaotic Desire Valley.

She told him that as long as he shed a drop of virgin tears or a drop of virgin blood at the final destination, he could successfully pa.s.s the 3th Level Desire Valley.

Yue Yang knew the answer to clear the Level.

But he was not satisfied.

He had hoped to observe with his own eyes and used the chess pieces as a mirror to find the truth about the Power of Resentment in the Desire Valley.

“At the end, there are two kneeling stone statues with severed heads in the Desire Valley. They are exactly the same as the two stone statues with severed heads at the entrance, both headless men and women. The blood should be dropped on the palms of the men’s hands, whereas the teardrop should drip onto the palm of the woman’s hand, and the effect of the two seems to be the same. I was eager to pa.s.s through the Desire Valley, but I did not study it carefully as I just let a tear fall and pa.s.sed. If you didn’t prepare in advance, on the way to the Desire Valley, there will be a good amount of women on your way. They are the half-conscious and half-sinking fallen ones that have been reincarnated. It is said that as long as you get the love of those beauties, you will pa.s.s through, but there is no guarantee at all, so it would be best if you prepared yourself early!” Empress Fei Wen Li shared her experience of clearing the Desire Valley.

“I have the tears and blood of a virgin,” Yue Yang opened his hand with a little puzzled expression, muttering to himself, “But what is this Power of Resentment?”

“Are you able to feel the Power of Resentment?”

There was a female voice that was as clear as the heavens, and it resounded from behind Yue Yang.

It was as if Yue Yang’s soul was struck by thunder as his body was shaken.

He did not sense that there was a woman behind him.

This, this is simply impossible…Under the protection of the World Creation Domain and paired with his Heaven Eyes Transverse ability, even a G.o.d wouldn’t be able to sneak their way through! What’s more was that around his body, there were still small circles of the Powers of the Law that surrounded him. That’s why it should be impossible for any other being to enter his s.p.a.ce within a hundred meters.

Why?

Who was it exactly that could pull off such a task?

Yue Yang burst into the Supreme Will in an instant and recovered into his calm demeanour. He turned around in serenity, turning back to look at the person.

It was an indescribably beautiful woman. Comparing the G.o.ddess who tempted Shen Du with her was equivalent to comparing a firefly with the moon[1].

T/L Note:[1] Comparing two things that had a striking difference and shouldn’t be compared. It literally meant that the brightness of a firefly couldn’t be compared with that of the moon.

Unfortunately, this woman only had a head.

The parts below the neck were chopped off by an unknown person.

Even so, her face was suffocatingly beautiful, and even the student Yue Yang who was accustomed to beauties and possessed the Supreme Will could not help but form small ripples in the tranquil lake of his mind. Had it not been for the realm guidance of Zhi Zun, Empress Fei Wen Li, and many ancient powerhouses in the World Tree that let Yue Yang have a glimpse of the Divine Innate Realm and reach the perfect Supreme Realm, he would have been unable to resist the temptation of the other party.

This was just the power of a head.

If she had a body, Yue Yang felt that his Supreme Will might not be able to resist it!

How frightening!

Yue Yang never thought that a woman would be beautiful to a terrifying state! This kind of overwhelming facial feature was the deadliest poison for any man! If this woman says she wants to fall in love with him, he genuinely believed that any man would give up everything in the world and dump themselves willingly under her pomegranate skirt[2].

T/L Note: [2] This means the act of a man being subdued by the charm/ beauty/ actions of a woman, falling into her control.

“Are you afraid of me?” The beautiful woman smiled slightly as her smile instantly eclipsed heaven and earth.

“Ah, you are the source of that Resentment!” Yue Yang felt the unbelievable existence of the other party in his heart, and the Supreme Will was immediately shaken and shocked, “No, you are the source of energy for the entire Desire Valley. No wonder I couldn’t sense your presence before— your existence is basically the Law of the Desire Valley. No, actually, the Law of the Desire Valley is not the Law of Desire; iit exists to seal you, but in turn, you a.s.similated it into the Law of Desire. My Goodness, who exactly are you?”

“My name is Pandora, and I am someone who has been dead for a hundred thousand years. I don’t remember the past at all; what’s left with me is only endless resentment,” The beautiful woman laughed and asked, “Are you satisfied with this answer? By the way, I was born with an ability to predict death. Do you want to know that the date of your death, hmm, seems to be today?”
