I can see the blood bar and my purity is extremely high

Chapter 426: An unexpected gain after restoring purity

The blazing dragon breath began at the edge of the lower city and quickly spread in all directions as if it had a life of its own.

The fire was raging and spreading incredibly fast.

In just a few minutes, the entire Coconut Juice City was completely surrounded by a huge circle of fire, and this circle of fire was gradually burning and shrinking inward.

Amid the screams of ghosts and wolves, the entire outskirts of Coconut Juice City fell into chaos.

The law enforcement teams that used to act as deterrents have completely lost control of the situation. Countless people have fallen due to trampling and violent snatching alone.

The crowd screamed and cried as they ran through the streets, trying to fight for hope of survival.

The sound of gunfire mixed with explosions was deafening, and the road surface groaned under the scorching flames.

The circle of fire was like a shrinking steamer, squeezing all chances and hopes of survival.

In order to seize the road to the "safe zone", fierce fighting broke out on every main road.

Vehicles rammed into each other as drivers went into a hysterical rage, and guns and weapons fired indiscriminately in the hands of their respective owners.

The bullet penetrated the head and the high temperature melted the flesh and blood.

The implanted prosthesis that was supposed to be used to strengthen the body melted into the most primitive liquid in the flesh and blood, mixing with the burnt flesh and blood, rapidly accelerating the process of death.

Tears of blood flowed from the charred, hollow eye sockets, and the body collapsed like a scarecrow with its skeleton removed.

All of this is just to clear the obstacles in front of me and to gain even a little more time to escape.

It’s not as if companies are completely inactive.

Those fire brigade members who could only be hired at a high cost in the past were driving fire trucks and spraying fire everywhere.

Ultra-low temperature refrigerants and flame retardants are being poured in tons at no cost.

But all of this seems like a drop in the bucket in front of the Purgatory Dragon's Breath.

It is the innate fire that comes from the body of a true dragon, and is the spirit of heaven and earth that has been formed by integrating countless rare treasures.

The nature of this world that is infinitely close to reality perfectly restores the nearly immortal nature of the Purgatory Dragon's Breath.

Moreover, this is not just the breath of the Purgatory Dragon from the past.

The effect of the Sin Fire has also been restored.

This is a terrifying flame that can directly ignite the soul using sin as fuel. In the hands of Vajra Yaksha Vidyaraja, it is enough to burn the sins of the entire world in an instant.

Although the sinful fire that Lu Wenwu controls now is not that strong, its essence is the same.

If people with sinful hearts get close, even if they are just a little bit touched, they will be completely refined in the raging fire, and all their sins will be completely burned.

High-rise buildings hundreds of meters high are collapsing and majestic statues are crumbling.

Those electronic advertising screens that once symbolized the glory of advanced technology burst into flames, emitting a sickening burnt smell as the flames licked them.

Some people thought they had found a loophole in the fire and began driving expensive hovercrafts and aircraft to high altitudes, trying to get away from this sudden disaster.

However, what greeted them was a fierce gale that was like a meat grinder.

No matter what level of flying vehicle it is, the moment it escapes from the sea of ​​fire and rushes into the sky, it will be blown to pieces by a gust of wind.

The driver and passengers inside exploded in the air together with a blood mist mixed with metal debris, which scattered like flowers from heaven, adding a bit of terror to the fire below and a bit of hideousness to the dragon hovering in the sky.

"If there is a God in the world, please save me! I am willing to give all my property to him."

People in despair knelt on the ground and cried.

Facing the raging flames, his heart was completely broken, and he instinctively began to look for that illusory spiritual sustenance.

But is there really a God in this world?
Maybe.

But at least at this moment, no one could save him.

The ferocious red and black flames mercilessly ignited his body.

The charred figure wailed in the flames, then fell to the ground in a few seconds, without any sound.

Wisps of scarlet blood floated up from his burnt body, rising into the sky as if attracted by something, and merged with countless other blood energies.

Thick bundles of blood and energy intertwined, forming a long blood river between illusion and reality ten thousand meters in the sky!
The blood river was rushing and surging, like the Milky Way in mythology, faintly dotted with silver starlight, as if the starlight was imprisoned inside.

The magic dragon hovering above the sky opened its mouth and sucked. The raging river of blood that almost covered the entire sky immediately turned into a trickle like a dragon sucking water and was swallowed by the magic dragon.

The dragon's body is expanding and stretching.

The scales are becoming thicker and deeper.

The dragon's horn continued to grow and extend upward, and the tip was sharp, almost like a spiral pattern.

The ominous aura that made one's soul tremble became stronger and stronger, and it was so thick that the monstrous evil energy seemed to materialize and swept in all directions, covering the entire Coconut Juice City from above.

It was like an upside-down bowl, completely covering the entire city.

"As expected. Without a real soul, as long as the core data is not damaged, there is no difference between being dead and alive, and one can be easily resurrected."

Lu Wenwu controlled the Purgatory Dragon Breath to spread continuously inward, killing all creatures one after another.

Powerful energy and blood spread throughout the city. All nutritious substances were consumed by his power and eventually returned to his body.

At this point, he was no longer afraid of consumption and was increasing his strength to his heart's content.

3000
4000
5000
Lu Wenwu's [Physical] attribute, which had been forced to stagnate for various reasons a long time ago, now soared at an extremely fast speed, becoming stronger every minute and every second.

The entire Coconut Juice City has become Lu Wenwu's possession, completely enveloped and refined by the terrifying Purgatory Dragon Flame, and no living creature can escape.

Wherever the breath of the Purgatory Dragon passes, no grass grows.

No living thing could survive, no human creation could survive.

In less than an hour, the entire lower city area built around the upper city area was swallowed up by him and turned into a white land!
At this moment, the Eternal Parliament has not even been able to discuss an effective military action plan.

He just issued various orders in a daze, ordering his subordinates to mechanically carry out the defense plan that had been formulated.

The Dragon Claw Team and the Life Detection Team, who they had high hopes for, had not yet been able to display their strength before Lu Wenwu unreasonably overturned the table and took them away.

They were unable to engage in effective fighting for even a minute.

It was a completely one-sided massacre.

They were slaughtered without any chance of fighting back.

Lu Wenwu didn't even get to see what they looked like, and everything was over.

In the face of absolute individual strength, the gap in combat power between the two sides seemed so huge.

"Real world. Virtual world. What exactly do the builders behind this world want to do?" Lu Wenwu pondered, looking towards the city center.

The protective force field in the upper city area still shines as brightly as it did when Lu Wenwu came in last time, and it seems as solid as an indestructible fortress.

The nuclear explosion shook the lower city area, which had been almost razed to the ground, and mushroom clouds rose up one after another.

Nuclear energy is both the cause of success and the cause of failure. The misuse of nuclear reactors makes the entire city seem like it is sitting in a nuclear arsenal.

The massive amount of radiation was enough to penetrate the cells of any carbon-based organism, causing them to die from extremely high doses of radiation sickness within just a few hours, ultimately leading to the melting of flesh and blood and the collapse of genes.

A pale pink halo surged, and the simulated dream law was taking effect.

In Lu Wenwu's eyes, the whole world was divided into two completely different perspectives.

The former is normal, just like everyone else.

The latter is a binary mathematical language full of "0" and "1".

Thanks to the Cyberstein knowledge package and the knowledge of all languages, mathematical language is also a language, and it is the common language of most silicon-based intelligent races.

Lu Wenwu knew a little about it.

In this perspective, those areas that are given special attention are structured into the most primitive mathematical models.

As a series of data streams floated by, the truth of the world gradually unfolded before his eyes.

It is an underlying architecture completed by the laws of illusion and mathematical models. The combination of technology and mystery has made this world highly logically self-consistent, infinitely close to the real world.

Under normal circumstances, the death of an organism in a narrow sense can occur in two ways.

One is that the current world has rules for guiding souls after death.

For example, the underworld, the netherworld, the kingdom of God, and so on. Under this law, the souls will be drawn away by unique rules and leave the world of the living.

The second is that the current world does not have any special rules regarding the souls of living things after death.

In this case, the soul will separate from the deceased body after the death of a living thing, gradually dissipate between heaven and earth, and everything will return to the natural cycle.

Of course, there is a third, more extreme situation.

That is, the soul was unable to leave the dead body after death for various reasons, or was unable to perform the next actions according to the established rules.

This will form vengeful spirits, resentful ghosts, ghosts, undead creatures and other different Schrödinger's creatures between life and death.

They are dead in a narrow sense, but they have gained the continuation of life in a broad sense.

What is now presented before Lu Wenwu is similar to the first situation.

But only half.

After the death of the people and creatures killed by the Purgatory Dragon Flame, some of their things were indeed pulled by certain rules and went to a special space that ordinary people could not see.

It should be some kind of unique database or data storage space.

But what is surprising is that the things that were pulled away were not souls themselves, but clusters of data.

It is like a soul and can play the role of a soul, but it is not a soul at all.

At least it’s not what Lu Wenwu knows.

If this data group that is separated from life itself is described more accurately, it is more like a projection of the soul, or a reflection of consciousness itself.

Bring your consciousness here, seal your own memories, and manipulate your new body to grow again and start a new life.

Lu Wenwu was no stranger to this technique.

In the immortal cultivation system, some powerful illusion arrays can achieve such a realistic level.

Or the classic "A Dream of a Thousand Years", "A Great Dream of Eternity", "Bodhi Enlightenment", "Hundreds of Reincarnations", etc. These are special trial methods that are often used to increase life experience, assist in cultivation, and assess the talents of disciples.

It’s just that it’s not as almost completely real as the simulation in Coconut Juice City.

This also further confirmed some of Lu Wenwu's speculations, which made him feel relieved.

The wills of a large number of living beings are "confined" here in this way of consciousness descending and soul mapping. No matter why the creator of this world did this, one thing is certain.

There is a high probability that the bodies of these lives are still there.

In the worst case, even if the body perishes, the soul will be preserved by some means.

As long as there is a soul, as long as the soul itself has not entered the twilight of thought and ended its life, there is a chance of resurrection.

“That makes things even more interesting.”

High in the sky, Lu Wenwu, transformed into the Infernal Dragon, grinned fiercely, and scarlet clouds rolled around him, as if a tsunami was rising above the sea of ​​clouds.

Countless core data clusters that should have been pulled into a special storage space by the original rules were forcibly intercepted by him and collected in one place, where they were densely stacked together in the air.

The light released by the data link was almost piled up to form another moon, occupying a place in the blood-red magic cloud.

In just a few breaths, the core data of hundreds of millions of lives were all collected.

Yes, hundreds of millions.

This is a number that would be impossible under normal circumstances.

As a result, Lu Wenwu discovered something even more interesting, and also something even more terrifying and creepy when one thinks about it carefully.

After the death of birds, beasts, cats, dogs, mosquitoes and plants, the "souls" extracted from their bodies also contain the same core data groups as humans!
"Although I haven't recovered to my peak yet, in this world where thunder tribulations and the transformation of life essence cannot be simulated, a strength of 10,000 [Physical] attributes should be enough."

With the death of hundreds of millions of lives, Lu Wenwu refined the entire Lower City District and almost swallowed up nine-tenths of Coconut Juice City!
With this scale of nutrient replenishment and the transformation and expansion of the dream laws, he should have been able to recover his peak strength easily.

However, it did not.

This made Lu Wenwu realize one thing.

Even if the world is constructed in a realistic way, there are limits to the levels of life that can be simulated.

The laws and life essences that exceed the limits have far exceeded the "carrying capacity" of this world, or the computing power!

Perhaps there is a more down-to-earth reason.

The master who built this world may not even be aware of the true magical power of this level.

Intelligent creatures cannot imagine things they have never seen and can only split and reassemble existing elements.

"We've already come this far, but the real person behind the scenes still hasn't shown up?"

"I wonder if you are confident that you can keep your composure, or if you simply don't have the courage and strength to fight me?"

"If that's the case, then I can't help but feel a little disappointed."

Lu Wenwu grinned and looked down at the upper city area behind the position shield.

Through the materialized light energy barrier, he could clearly see the panicked expressions of the people in the upper city, as well as the countless soldiers and heavy weapons ready for battle.

"The Master said: Three armies can seize the commander, but one man cannot seize the will."

"Can these ordinary people shake my will? Ridiculous!"

"If that's the case, there's no need for this world without real egg-filled pancakes to exist!"

Suddenly, a violent storm swept in, and thunder and lightning roared!
