Chapter 818: Chapter 601: Spectators

The white ball writhed, and had it not already possessed a high level of cuteness, this scene alone would have been extremely unsettling. However, once enveloped by the white ball, the fragments of the God’s Corpse ceased to transform.

"It really is inconceivable," Lillian commented as she watched, clicking her tongue. After heavily reinforcing her own defenses, she poked through the thin outer layer of the white ball and had to admit that, upon completing its encasement, it effectively isolated the pure malice of the God’s Corpse.

Direct contact was unlikely to cause any major issues.

Of course, the environment itself had not returned to normal, still being eroded by pure malice. This effect wouldn’t vanish immediately; it needed purification.

At this point, Zheng Yichen released the Evil Spirit sea urchin again, flinging out a multitude of white spikes. With Lilith’s aid, Zheng Yichen successfully set up a formation.

Named the Spirit Gathering Array, it was similar to the Sword Control Technique that Zheng Yichen had learned; they both bore such names and had many variants, including the basic, the advanced versions, as well as enhanced and specialized editions.

Life’s Benevolence in the form of white light emanated from the spikes, enveloping the land and under its influence...

"Hmm, if this Life’s Benevolence should change or become uncontrollable, then the life forms here would definitely face a catastrophic crisis," analyzed the Holy Maiden with strong perception abilities. Life’s Benevolence was a good thing; plain and simple, it could allow for life-saving blood transfusions regardless of blood type. But when it came to Life Force, giving and receiving was far more demanding than simply transfusing blood.

The source of this Life’s Benevolence, however, was an Evil Spirit.

Although the aura of the Evil Spirit sea urchin didn’t seem entirely evil and even showed traits similar to that of a Heroic Spirit or a Holy Spirit, its origin was an Evil Spirit summoning ritual.

Therefore, while Life’s Benevolence was useful, it could easily become excessive.

"Like what?" Zheng Yichen, sensing the changes in the environment, felt that... his bloodsucking ability might significantly increase, along with a host of other strengths related to Life Force.

To use gaming jargon, it was like enhancing the bloodsucking effect, not bestowing the attribute of bloodsucking but strengthening its effects.

"Without barriers and boundaries between lives, it’s too easy for life forms to become ’too friendly’ and start merging. You wouldn’t want to shake hands with someone, only to find your palm has grown together with theirs, right?"

The Holy Maiden gave Zheng Yichen a simple example. An overly nurturing environment could lead to life forms merging just from light contact. That was just the problem among normal life forms.

The abnormal?

The abnormal would be touching the plants and flowers only to find they’ve grown onto you, or taking a nap leaned against a tree and waking up to discover you’ve become one with the tree.

"This situation... with the current conditions, it’s already possible," the Holy Maiden said, feeling the increasingly strong presence of Life’s Benevolence in the air. "Your summoned Spiritual Body isn’t a Heroic Spirit; its essence is an Evil Spirit. While its Life’s Benevolence is quite unique, such benevolence comes without restrictions."

Anything unrestricted can pose problems, even eating and drinking.

People don’t often die from overindulgence, but it’s not impossible.

The sea urchin, inherently an Evil Spirit, may possess the strength of Life’s Benevolence, but it releases this power without the usual friendly constraints—a disregard for the limits individuals can withstand.

"So, you mean if we touch it now, it’s very likely something will go wrong?"

"No," the Holy Maiden shook her head. "The environment doesn’t affect us all that much."

They were not ordinary people. If they could be influenced easily, then what difference would there be between them and powerless folks?

She continued, "In such an environment, there are real benefits, like somewhat bridging the gaps in lifeform levels, allowing those with vast differences to produce offspring more easily."

"...There’s no need to go into that," Zheng Yichen quipped, his mouth twitching at the thought. It wasn’t particularly relevant to discuss here, but the Life’s Benevolence from the Evil Spirit sea urchin’s characteristics was worth noting.

Very soon, the thick presence of Life’s Benevolence in the environment began to purge the pure malice left by the God’s Corpse. Intense as it was, the malice was merely residual, and without the God’s Corpse’s direct influence, it couldnould notoothstand the ever-strengthening Life’s Benevolence.

Once it was neutralized, Zheng Yichen immediately had the Evil Spirit sea urchin retract its energy-consuming white spikes.

Furthermore, considering the functionality of the sea urchin, Zheng Yichen found himself increasingly satisfied with his new summon.

"Alright, now onto these things," Zheng Yichen said, clapping his hands. Life’s Benevolence still lingered in the environment; there was no need for additional elimination. Assuming nothing unexpected occurred, this place would likely become relatively fertile in the future.

However, such a state would not last forever...

While the pure malice of the environment was being erased, the God’s Corpse encased by the white ball already showed signs of rapid decay, faster than before.

The cat spirit... was still making its woeful cries nearby, akin to a cat in heat, writhing and struggling on the ground.

Last time, the cat spirit only nibbled a small piece of the God’s Corpse’s flesh, but this time, after gnawing on a mutated eyeball, it wasn’t something that could be digested in a short duration. Zheng Yichen winced on behalf of the cat spirit.

After all, it had been making noise for so long, would this be considered trouble caused by gluttony?

Or was the white ball simply competent enough... or perhaps, dealing with such abnormal negative entities was the white ball’s special domain.

"Shall we go for another round later?"

"I think after we complete this, we should head back first and make thorough preparations," Nelliwey couldn’t help but suggest. Honestly, before Zheng Yichen made his move, none of them had anticipated he could achieve to such an extent.

Not to mention confronting the God’s Corpse directly, the main point was that during the confrontation, Zheng Yichen seemed to be able to ignore the extremely strong resistance innate to the God’s Corpse.

No, more importantly, this guy really managed to fish out the God’s Corpse in his own way!

Out of caution, Nelliwey advised Zheng Yichen, "Once we’re well prepared, we won’t just be bystanders next time. We can recover more remnants of the divine corpses, and another critical point is that if you try consecutively once more, it might not just be one or two God’s Corpses."

Zheng Yichen managed to successfully lure out a God’s Corpse in his own way, and only one appeared this time, but if he tried again, it would no longer be a certainty.

The location Zheng Yichen had affected was equivalent to nesting, this time attracting a God’s Corpse. Others might very likely be gathering amid the spatial turbulence; they would disperse, but if Zheng Yichen were to try again shortly, five or six God’s Corpses might all jump out at once...

"There are that many?"

Zheng Yichen was somewhat astonished.

"In fact, it’s more than you think," Nelliwey shook her head, looking at the God’s Corpse Severed Arm wrapped by the white ball, "This arm is different from the last one; the ones next time might still be different."

Indeed they were different. Two days later, another desolate area.

Aside from the Luminous Holy Maiden, other beings had come this time, the Dragon Tribe leader Denas, and half-gods unknown to Zheng Yichen, who seemed to be related to the Luminous Divine type and from Landen City, as well as those with connections to the Dragon Tribe.

There were also subservient or cooperative races on the Dragon Tribe’s side.

"Why are there so many people here?" Zheng Yichen didn’t mind being watched during the fight, but the number of people who had come this time seemed too many?

"The commotion you made last time was too great. Frequent appearances of God’s Corpses have drawn the attention of various God systems," Nelliwey said somewhat helplessly at the side.

Two days earlier, Zheng Yichen cut off a God’s Corpse’s head and an arm, and the arm was connected to a portion of the God’s Corpse’s body. After the white ball ’digested’ it, it spat out ten God’s Corpse fragments which, while not as high-quality as the Great Evil God fragments, had increased in number.

This was the spoils of victory for Zheng Yichen; apart from that, there was the impact of the aftermath of the God’s Corpse’s appearance.

The attention of the various divine systems to this matter—if it weren’t for Zheng Yichen’s good relations with the Luminous Divine type and the Dragon Tribe, people with ulterior motives would likely have already labeled Zheng Yichen as a ’demon’.

The method of pulling God’s Corpses from exile... should never fall into the hands of demigods or mortals.

And there were just a handful of True Gods who knew the relevant methods; tracing back to the source of the issue after problems arose was easy.

"The first time wasn’t my doing."

Nelliwey nodded, "Yes, like when you killed those half-gods, not all of them were killed by you."

Whether or not they were killed by Zheng Yichen wasn’t the issue; the main point was that those demigods died during the time Zheng Yichen began to kill.

Now the matter of the God’s Corpses was similar; the first time indeed had nothing to do with Zheng Yichen, but the second time did.

"So you’re saying there might be someone related to this among the people who have come here?" Zheng Yichen glanced at the distant half-gods, who didn’t dare to approach rashly, maintaining a watchful attitude. They were ostensibly here for insurance.

At least that’s what they said, but from Zheng Yichen’s experience of fighting the God’s Corpse, if he couldn’t hold them back, it seemed there weren’t many present who could fight among these half-gods.

The special resistance of the God’s Corpses made most attacks as feeble as scraping a minor itch, and the pure malice of God’s Corpses had too significant an impact on the environment.

"Do you want to find the True God who set you up? That’s difficult, since whoever took action must have made the necessary preparations, and the God’s Corpses that appeared didn’t bring about much impact," Nelliwey shook her head at the side, "You then produced a new God’s Corpse afterwards."

"So what wasn’t my fault has now become my fault, is that it?"

Zheng Yichen clicked his tongue in annoyance and brought out the prepared black spikes; this time, Lilith directly covered Zheng Yichen’s vision with her projection.

Moreover, the ’magic array formation’ produced effects as obscured as last time, but it still functioned well, and the God’s Corpse that appeared was different from the second one, this one completely covered in fur.
