Chapter 581-2: Astra Royal City, Old Gods (2)
[You have already reached this step. There is no need for Him to say more about how to clear the chapter. As long as you are willing, He believes you will certainly be able to do it.]
[You suddenly say, If, I mean if, if some Apostle is unwilling to enter the Divine Kingdom, and in the end does not kill Radiant Crescent, but instead kills the Corrupting Blood Sun, what will happen?]
[Neptune’s expression immediately turns gloomy. He sneers and says, Apostle, I will remind you that such thoughts are very dangerous.]
[If there really is a salvation Apostle unwilling to change their outdated ideas, even if they can overcome all difficulties and kill the Corrupting Blood Sun, do not forget what the Divine Kingdom’s Apostles have always been doing.]
[When the Corrupting Blood Sun dies, They can still cultivate King’s Sword into the next Corrupting Blood Sun. Even if the Apostle kills all gods of the Blood Sun camp and successfully saves the Blood Sun world…]
[When that salvation Apostle enters a new chapter next time, they will discover in despair, why is it still the Blood Sun world? Why is there still a new Corrupting Blood Sun, as well as a group of new corrupted gods?]
[Of course, this is too troublesome and tedious… The most likely outcome is that before that Apostle who refuses to compromise kills the Corrupting Blood Sun, the Apostles of the Divine Kingdom will intervene ahead of time and erase all unstable factors in the cradle.]
[So do you understand? How you should choose…]
[You nod and say, understood. I will make the most correct and wisest choice.]
[Hearing your words, Neptune reveals a smile again and says, He likes communicating with intelligent people. He believes that, before long, you will become His, Neptune’s, friend.]
[Enough. His guidance task ends here. It is time to return to the Divine Kingdom…]
[Neptune grips the trident and brings it down heavily against the ground.]
[At the same time, a golden carriage drawn by four tall, strong white horses drives across the sky, dragging wave after wave of azure sea tides.]
[The carriage comes galloping from the horizon. Before long, it passes through the obstruction of the cathedral dome like a phantom and stops before Neptune.]
[He boards the carriage, waves goodbye to you, and says, Apostle, I look forward to meeting you in the Divine Kingdom.]
[As His words fall, the white horses neigh and raise their forelegs, bringing up blue waves as they gallop toward the sky and disappear…]

“Damn! Do all Apostles of Disorder have such cool teleportation special effects?” Lin Xun silently complained.
Neptune had revealed quite a lot of information. The most important point among it was that if he wanted to perform the act of salvation, he not only had to oppose the Corrupting Blood Sun, but before that, he would most likely also have to oppose Apostles of Disorder and old gods.
Those Apostles in the Divine Kingdom had existed for a long span of years. Among them, there were definitely powerful existences at supreme grade, and even supreme+ grade.
Trying to go against the administrator’s will, or even challenge the administrator, was truly as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
No wonder the Chairman-in-Chief had repeatedly interrupted chapters, and even simply stopped continuing the game altogether.
For any Apostle, facing such an absolute dead end, they did not have the right to resist and say no.
Even though Lin Xun had Omniscient True Knowledge’s support behind him, the enemy simply did not give him the opportunity to call for help and use his cheat. As long as he went to challenge the Corrupting Blood Sun, an Apostle of Disorder would descend and send him back to the Library for free.
Lin Xun fell into thought. Countless characters flashed through his eyes.
“This does not mean I have no chance. During the chapter clearing process, the greatest difference between me and the Chairman-in-Chief is that the current Blood Sun world still has another powerful force entrenched and lurking within it…”
“Evil God… Extreme Delusion Fruit.”
He had two choices. The first was to ally with the Moon Goddess and resolve the Corrupting Blood Sun with thunderous momentum, not giving the Apostles of Disorder the chance or time to intervene.
After killing the Blood Sun, he would be able to summon Omniscient True Knowledge, and he would then have something to rely on when falling out with the administrator.
The possibility of this plan succeeding was very low.
The most likely outcome was that even if he and the Moon Goddess joined forces, they would still be unable to kill the Corrupting Blood Sun. Only after finding that critical thread of salvation opportunity would there be a chance to contend with the Blood Sun.
Although the administrator, because of the restrictions of The Book of Salvation, had no choice but to leave behind a single thread of salvation hope, the enemy had operated the Blood Sun world for a long time, and would definitely lower this one thread of salvation probability to an extremely low level, so low it was outrageous.
The other option was to seek skin from a tiger, search for the hidden Evil God, and reach a temporary cooperation with Extreme Delusion Fruit.
The success of this plan was also low, but it would definitely be somewhat higher than the success rate of the previous plan.
If Lin Xun went to challenge the Corrupting Blood Sun, it would be regarded as resistance and immediately draw the administrator’s suppression. But if it were done by the third-party force of Extreme Delusion Fruit, then things would be different.

[Neptune has already left. Only the scarlet Divine Image of the Corrupting Blood Sun remains shining brightly in the cathedral.]
[Do you want to worship and pray before the Divine Image, changing your Golden Blazing Sun oath?]
[You sneer coldly and turn to leave the cathedral…]
[Outside the cathedral, densely packed, ferocious fallen believers have already surrounded the area. Like a sea of blood, their end cannot be seen with a single glance.]
[When they see you come out, they roar and howl as they pounce toward you…]
[You close your eyes and drive Supreme Authority – Firefly Dominion!]
[In an instant, an enormous grid invisible to the naked eye blooms and unfolds with you as its center!]
[The vast web of consciousness continuously spreads. Every living being within sight is unable to escape the net’s capture!]
[As if time has paused, the fallen believers’ pouncing motions suddenly freeze. Their ferocious expressions and the fangs in their mouths are close at hand, yet they cannot move even one step closer.]
[This freezing continues expanding as the web of consciousness spreads. The densely packed army of fallen believers stiffen one after another, unable to control their corrupted limbs.]
[Very quickly, the giant waves raised by the sea of blood calm. The sea surface is deathly still, without even the slightest ripple.]
[Looking out, all fallen believers are frozen and unmoving, because they have already become nodes of the web of consciousness, becoming low-level consciousnesses manipulated and controlled by you.]
[With one new node after another joining in, the web of consciousness obtains nourishment and rapidly expands and spreads…]
[…]
[In the end, the web of consciousness encompasses the entire Astra Royal City!]
[You cannot help panting slightly. With your current degree of control over Firefly Dominion, pulling the web of consciousness until it wraps around the entire Royal City is already your limit.]
[If you make the web of consciousness expand any further, the entire grid will collapse…]
[You carefully sense every mental thread on the web of consciousness and every consciousness node, but you do not detect the slightest sign of malice power lurking.]
[With your familiarity with malice, and with your perception of malice, even if there were an extremely faint trace of malice lurking, you would be able to detect and know it.]
[This can only prove that Extreme Delusion Fruit is not hidden within the Royal City. The Evil God’s feelers have not yet swept over the Royal City…]
“Where has this guy… hidden himself?”
Lin Xun frowned. From entering the chapter until now, he had not discovered any sign of Extreme Delusion Fruit appearing.
If he had not personally seen the Evil God enter the Blood Sun world, he would have suspected that Extreme Delusion Fruit had gotten lost halfway.
Thinking carefully, it was not strange either. Extreme Delusion Fruit had been able to lurk from a weakling all the way to a big shot under the eyes of the Dragon God and Enma, the two main gods, and finally successfully won the chicken dinner. It could be said to be an expert in the path of hiding.
