Chapter 597: Test: Devouring Desire

Liu Ping opened his eyes.

Everything around him had disappeared.

He found himself standing in the middle of the dark universe, looking down at a blue planet.

A very strange feeling rippled in his heart.

Everything on that planet, he could decide.

Not only that.

He looked up into the dark universe.

There were many worlds hidden within the planets and the void, and even more beautiful galaxies were extremely powerful world-class life forms.

He was insignificant in front of them.

There were even some powerful world-class life forms that were devouring everything of their own kind ...

The law of the jungle was the most basic rule.

As soon as he thought of that, lines of burning words appeared in the void:

[The first stage, desire to devour]

[When a world-class life form is born, it has an extremely strong desire to devour. If you can’t defeat it, your world will be completely devoured by you, and you will directly enter a state of death]

Liu Ping’s gaze swept across the countless barren planets in the universe.

These were all worlds that died when they were born.

They didn’t even make it through the first stage.

Within the range of his consciousness, millions of planets were all dead.

Only the planet in front of him that belonged to him.

Or rather, a world.

It had just been born!

It gave Liu Ping the desire to devour!

Liu Ping looked at his own world across the endless void, and immediately saw everything that was happening on the ground.

Countless living beings were reclaiming, gathering, and hunting.

They were thriving on the ground.

Liu Ping silently looked at this scene, and a thought suddenly appeared in his mind:

"The souls of living beings are beneficial, eating their souls will allow me to quickly become stronger."

He landed and stood at the funeral site of a primitive tribe.

Layers upon layers of dry wood had already been ignited.

The dead person was burned by the fire, and his bones returned to the ground.

But his soul had already left his body, blankly floating above the funeral site.

"God, please take me away, I’ve already left this world."

The soul prayed.

Liu Ping’s heart was suddenly filled with an unprecedented desire.

Eat it!

As long as I eat this, the power of the world will become even stronger!

Liu Ping frowned slightly and muttered: "Does the soul not have a place to return?No ... although eating it can make me stronger, there must be other ways."

As soon as he said that.

He couldn’t help but look at the soul again.

This time, Liu Ping could not shift his gaze away from the soul.

The irrepressible appetite turned into a frenzy from the depths of his mind, crazily engulfing everything.

Eat it!

The souls of all living beings were born in the world, but they represented the essence of the world!

As long as it was eaten, the power of the world would be further strengthened!

Eat it!

Eat it!

Eat it!

All the thoughts in Liu Ping’s mind disappeared, leaving only this strong desire.

Suddenly.

A glowing humanoid figure hovered in mid-air, facing that soul.

Liu Ping looked at the humanoid figure and suddenly understood.

This humanoid figure represented himself.

It was the guiding spirit!

It would receive all living beings that had died.

Should he lead these souls to Liu Ping and eat them, or should he lead them to somewhere else?

Liu Ping had to make a decision now!

Lines of burning text appeared in the void of space:

[Begin setting the world rules.]

[The guiding spirit has been born.]

[After any existence dies, as long as they are touched by your spirit of guidance, they will immediately be sent to you.]

[Do you want to eat them, or do you have other choices?]

[Please set up a guiding language for your world’s guiding spirit to guide the souls of all living beings.]

All the text disappeared.

Liu Ping tried his best to suppress the intense hunger in his body and couldn’t help but let out a low growl.

This is too difficult, I can barely control my appetite, but I still have to prevent the guiding spirit from being touched by the souls.

Once they are sent to me, will I be able to resist this desire?

What should I do?

God sternly said: "Quickly set up a guiding language to warn the souls not to approach, otherwise, they will directly merge with your soul. If there is a first time, there will be a second time, until you can no longer resist your desire!"

"Some souls won’t listen to warnings, you must take this into consideration," the Goddess of Death worriedly interjected.

Liu Ping knelt on the ground, his consciousness began to blur.

But at the very last moment of clarity, he waved his hand and set up a Primordial Law for the guiding spirit!

After doing this, he immediately fell into a coma.

"He has lost the ability to resist, once he consumes the souls of living beings while unconscious, he will fail the trial," the Goddess of Death said.

"What kind of Law did he set up?" Mother Gaia anxiously asked.

"Just watch," God said.

The three Divinities all turned to the guiding spirit.

The soul hovered in front of the guiding spirit, attracted by the indescribably powerful fluctuation of power it gave off, it couldn’t help but kneel down in mid-air and prostrate itself in worship:

"Are you the Divinity who came to guide me?"

The guiding spirit said in a dignified and solemn tone, "Guide your mother."

The soul was stunned and asked in a low voice:

"Sir, why are you so angry? I only want to be guided."

The guiding spirit continued: "Guide your mother’s guide."

The soul couldn’t tell what this glowing entity was.

"Did I do something wrong in the mortal realm? Why are you so angry ... "

The soul anxiously asked.

"Angry your mother’s guide," the guiding spirit continued.

Mother Gaia couldn’t help but ask: "Does it only know how to say ’your mother’?"

"Indeed," God replied.

"What’s the point of setting up such a Law? Wouldn’t it cause mortals to lose their sense of respect? "the Goddess of Death asked in confusion.

"Keep watching." God curtly replied.

The three Divinities continued to observe.

The soul hovered in mid-air for a while, but noticed that the guiding spirit didn’t do anything else, nor did it say anything.

"Could it be ... it’s nothing?" the soul muttered in a low voice.

"Yes, your mother’s guide is" the guiding spirit cursed.

The soul silently hovered in mid-air for a while, then silently retreated and left this place.

The world returned to silence.

"This is the first time I’ve ever seen such a method of guidance." Mother Gaia muttered.

At the very next moment.

The world’s scenery changed.

In another tribe, a chieftain had died.

His cremation was being held in a solemn atmosphere.

As the soul hovered in mid-air, it immediately saw the humanoid white glow exuding boundless power.

"God, is that you?" the chieftain’s soul immediately knelt in mid-air and asked.

"I am your mother." the guiding spirit replied.

The chieftain’s soul was stunned "Are you really my mother?"

"Yes, your mother is." the guiding spirit replied.

"Your excellency, are you my mother, or a divine envoy who came to receive me?" the chieftain asked.

"Divine envoy your mother." the guiding spirit replied.

The chieftain’s soul hesitated briefly and muttered: "... She’s a monster."

He carefully retreated, and soon, he was flying away from the direction of the guiding spirit.

"It seems to be effective overall." God commented with a judgmental tone.

"But that’s only for souls that have sentience and can communicate, what about other living beings?" the Goddess of Death curiously asked.

The scenery changed again.

In the forest.

A stray dog had reached the point of death.

It laid on the grass, unable to endure the pain of its illness any longer, it stopped breathing.

Its soul floated up and flew into the air.

The guiding spirit had appeared.

The stray dog’s soul looked at the guiding spirit and cautiously growled: "Woof!"

The guiding spirit took a deep breath.

At the very next moment, the guiding spirit roared with all its might in the void of space:

"Woof your mother!"

This roar was so earth-shattering, that the stray dog’s soul immediately fled without a trace.

"..." God.

"..." the Goddess of Death.

"..." Mother Gaia.

"... What kind of person is this ..." the Old God’s voice resounded in the void of space.

As soon as it finished speaking.

Lines of burning words quickly appeared in his mind:

[Congratulations!]

[You’ve used a method beyond the comprehension of normal people to set up the guiding spirit and successfully overcome the desire to devour]

[You are about to enter the next trial]

[A God will be born in your world ...]

Liu Ping abruptly opened his eyes.
