Chapter 92 - The Sin Of Greed
"Fuck it! He is just a boy, we can kill him if we combine our powers." Tianjin said as the royal family released their cultivation.
Mia and Mariel knew it was a last-ditch attempt but they had to stop Kai from destroying the mortal realm.
Mariel's wings and tail appeared from her clothes as she summoned her sword. Mia's clothes also changed as the scepter of the ice goddess appeared in her hands.
The royal family directed their power at Tianjin as he focused all of that power into the earth.
An earth dragon appeared from the ground and it was twice as large as the dead Yellow Dragon. Tianjin directed the earth dragon towards Kai.
Mia and Mariel released their cultivation as their left eyes changed color. They used the harem mark to share their powers as wings made from ice appeared behind Mia.
They raised their hands towards Kai as two eastern dragons appeared from their arms. One was made from purple flames while the second one was made from eternal ice, the upgraded version of the unmeltable ice.
The three dragons merged together as they reached in front of Kai. But with one slash of Hellbringer, they vanished.
"There is nothing we can do." Mariel said and it was over.
In Kai's mind, he was seeing everything play out in front of him but he didn't want to stop even though he knew he should.
He knew that if he didn't stop, he might destroy the entire realm but he still didn't want to stop. He felt Sinbringer tugging at his emotions, wanting him to destroy everything.
And he was tempted to do it. He raised Hellbringer as his demon version opened his mouth.
"The Seven Deadly Sins." He said in a hoarse deep voice as the people of the continent suddenly clutched at their throats.
Kai never spoke the name of any skill he used but to use the power of the sins, he had to call out for a particular sin.
And to punish the royal capital, he knew the perfect sin to call. Black balls of light shot out from everyone's throats and started to gather near Sinbringer.
One by one, every single one of them was absorbed by Hellbringer as the mist around the sword started to darken. It turned completely black and some of it started to travel down Kai's arms.
Mia, Mariel, and Risea were the only people who didn't clutch at their throats, and no black balls of light shot out from their throats.
Their harem Mark's started to burn brightly as a golden aura e gilded their bodies. The glow healed Risea's wounds and her entire body was how as good as new.
"Even in rampage mode, he is subconsciously protecting us." Mia sighed as Kai spoke again.
"The Sin Of Greed." His voice echoed around the entire continent as he slashed Hellbringer towards the ground.
Millions of swords started to appear in the sky, all of them looking exactly like Hellbringer but they weren't covered with a mist.
They trained down in the entire continent, slaughtering millions of people brutally. People screamed in agony as they tried to avoid the raining swords but it was impossible as the swords cut through everything.
Blood started to fill the streets as Risea gasped and threw up. Mia and Mariel couldn't blame her since it was her first time seeing a massacre.
But both of them had seen many wars since one of them was a princess while the other was a ruler.
When it looked as though everyone was dead and the swords were gone, Hellbringer itself touched the surface of the continent and cut it in half.
Large amounts of spiritual energy was released as Hellbringer cut through the spiritual core of the continent which provided it with spiritual energy.
The released spiritual energy traveled through the air and hit Kai in the stomach. His body started absorbing the spiritual energy at a rapid pace.
Within minutes, his body had absorbed every single drop of the released spiritual energy. His cultiva6ion started to rise rapidly.
2nd stage of the imperial spirit realm, 3rd stage of the imperial spirit realm, 4th stage, 5th stage... and it continued to rise as it stopped on the 10th stage.
No, it didn't stop. Rather, it was stopped by Kai himself as his eyes started to change back to his original eyes.
He took a few deep breaths as his eyes completely turned back to normal. His wings vanished as he lightly landed on the ground.
Seeing all the blood and dead bodies around him, he sighed and sat down in a clean spot. He then stared at nothing except it wasn't nothing.
He was staring at Death who was wielding his scythe with a mysterious smile. Kai then stood up and bit his right finger as golden blood trickled down from his finger.
Death smiled at Kai one last time as he had ordered the reapers to teleport back to the library.
The reapers were confused by Death's actions since they didn't under why he told them to teleport back
"Watch closely. One of the main reasons I took an interest in Kai was because of this." Death said as he pointed at the empty bookshelves that contained the books that belonged to the people of the Central Continent.
The reapers gasped as one by one, new books started to appear on the bookshelves. Within minutes millions of new books filled the bookshelves.
"He can create new death books for the same person. After someone dies, their soul hovers above their body for a few minutes before you guys take it. He can see that soul and with that soul, he can create a new body which would inhabit the soul.
The person would have every single one of their memories again since the soul contains the memories. And because of that, they are reborn with a new book since a death book is based on a particular soul and not the living body." Death explained as he went up to the shelves and picked up a certain book that was disappearing in his hands.
The book had Risea's name written on it.
***
Risea could only stare in amazement as the massacres people started to rise again even though their eyes were hazy and unfocused. The blood and severed body parts vanished and the continent started to join back together.
"Please catch me." Kai said as he touched two of his fingers to his head.
His spiritual sense spread across the entire continent as he did a mass memory manipulation.
He made everyone forget about the past few hours as his body trembled a little. His legs gave up as his face implanted into Mia's boobs.
"Talk about inner demons." She said with a smile as Risea watched the couple's interaction.
She then looked at the other girl whose name was Mariel as Risea expected her to be jealous. But instead, Mariel was also smiling as she moved to stand beside Mia.
"Please don't make bad jokes." Kai's muffled voice was heard as he stood back up.
"Guess I will catch you now." Mariel said as Kai touched the surface of the continent.
Spiritual energy travelled through his veins into the continent. He tried to repair the continent's core to the best of his abilities.
In the end, the core was back to fifty percent of its energy. Instead of stumbling like before, Kai's eyes rolled back and he was unconscious.
And just like Mariel had said, she caught Kai and spread her wings. Mia suddenly picked up Risea as Mia and Mariel rose up.
They started heading towards the west and people started to wake up, confused about what they were doing.
Kai had eradicated their memories about Tianjin and other corrupt members of the royal family. The people now knew that the ruler was someone else, someone fair and wise.
Out in the forest, the outcasts woke up and knelt down to Jiyai, some reluctantly than others. But in the end, all of them knelt.
The two men from earlier who had brought Kai and the group to HQ along with Jiyai stood up and knelt in front of Jiyai.
"We will serve you, leader." Both of them said at the same time as Jiyai nodded.
One by one, every person present there said those words. The women were cheerful with a newfound hope whereas some men gritted their teeth in frustration.
But Jiyai didn't care about those men. She would make them listen to her orders, one way or the other.
'Thank you, Kai.' She thought as she stared at the sun thinking about the person who helped her achieve what she wanted.
She then looked at her people and with that, a new age for the Central Continent began.
As for Kai and the others, they quietly flew away from the Central Continent towards their new home, The Blue Moon sect, and the Western Continent.
