The undead have descended upon the world? I possess a sword that can cleave the heavens once more!

With only a little over 30 million experience points left, insufficient to comprehend the [Supreme Mysterious Spirit Northern Dipper Crossing Origin Proving Life Sword Scripture] even once, Wu You decided not to waste any more time on it.

Only when he has accumulated enough experience points for a small goal will he be able to truly taste the [Supreme Mysterious Spirit Northern Dipper Crossing the Origin Proving Life Sword Scripture].

Next, he turned his gaze to the Divinity section on the Sword Codex panel.

Divinity: 30 (Fusion: 73.5)

Unbeknownst to him, he had already fused a total of 73.5 units of divinity. If he were to fuse all the divinity he possessed now, the total number of divinity he had fused would exceed 100.

If he continues to integrate like this, he really has a good chance of ascending to godhood and becoming a god among mortals.

However, he is no longer prepared to continue fusing with divinity.

His previous purpose in fusing with divinity was merely to restore his lifespan, to store more fuel for [Lihentian], and to have a trump card to play at a crucial moment.

But now he has exploited the bugs of [Lihentian] and [Xuanmingtian], and with the divine status of the God of Beasts, he has completed the conditions and obtained the [Immortal] attribute. He has no lifespan limit, cannot be killed by conventional means, and no longer needs to use divinity to restore his lifespan.

Moreover, divinity represents another path called "gods" or "deities." With a sword manual of a significantly higher level in hand, he has no need to take the risk of walking this path, which is likely to have a lower upper limit and is also subject to various constraints.

Perhaps when he achieves the highest level in the future, he might be able to create an avatar and walk the Ascension Stairs again.

It won't be too late to experience and appreciate this so-called path of the gods then.

But Wu You is definitely not going to take this path now, so he plans to keep these divine attributes for now and see if there are any other uses for them later.

His gaze moved down again on the sword manual panel, looking at several items that were not there before.

[Power: Lust]: 1

[Power: Crimson]: 1

[Power: Thousand Faces]: 1

Three things called "authority".

With a gentle touch of his mind, the corresponding information appeared in Wu You's consciousness.

"Can consuming a certain amount of divinity activate the corresponding [Authority]?"

"Is the effect of [Authority] positively correlated with the divinity consumed and the number of [Authority] units I possess?"

His expression was a little strange: he had just been thinking of keeping those divine beings to see if they could be used for anything else, and now they've come?

All he could say was: "It's like whatever I wish for comes true."

Next, Wu You focused his mind on [Power: Lust], and a lot of corresponding information automatically appeared:

Joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hate, and desire; sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch, and thought.

The seven emotions are the shackles of the heart: joy leads to indulgence, anger burns away reason, sorrow traps one in the past, fear makes one afraid of the future, love makes one willingly bind oneself, evil breeds murderous thoughts, and desire is never satisfied.

The six desires are a calamity for the body: the eyes are blinded by appearances, the ears are misled by noises, the nose is attached to fragrances, the tongue craves delicacies, the body indulges in warmth, and the mind gives rise to delusions.

All inner demons arise from this.

The current quantity of [Authority: Lust] is 1. It can consume 3 units of divinity to activate this authority once. It performs a high-level judgment on the mental state of a single target or a group target within a certain range. If any of the seven emotions and six desires fails the judgment, the user will directly enter the 'Frenzy' state and lose control of the body.

(Note: When the number of [Authority: Lust] units possessed reaches 10/50/100, the 'Frenzy' state after a failed judgment will change to the 'Consciousness'/'Delusion'/'Soul Stealing' state!)

After browsing the information on [Power: Lust], a look of understanding appeared on Wu You's face.

He couldn't help but recall the time when he fought against the projection of the God of Lust in the gathering place of the deep dark domain. Suddenly, countless distracting thoughts rose from the bottom of his mind, which even the Tongming Sword Heart and the Tongming Mindset could not resist!

Almost instantly, he completely lost control of his body and couldn't even think!

If it weren't for the God of Beasts temporarily raising his mental level with the power of evolution, allowing him to temporarily regain his mobility, he probably would have really fallen into the hands of the projection of lust!

And all of this was indeed the effect of authority! Moreover, losing control of the body and being unable to even think should correspond to the so-called states of 'madness' and 'loss of consciousness'!

In addition, there are those figures that look just like him, who have entered his body and want to take over his body, control his actions, and even replace him as the being called "Wu You". This should correspond to the two states of "Delusion" and "Soul Stealing"!

Browsing through the descriptions and annotations about the power of lust, a thought couldn't help but pop into Wu You's mind:

Although he currently only possesses one unit of the power of lust, which can only induce the target into the most basic state of 'madness', it cannot achieve the effects of 'consciousness', 'delusion', or 'soul stealing'.

However, if he were to kill more projections of the God of Lust and increase the number of units of the power of Lust, wouldn't he be able to reach the same level as the God of Lust?

Furthermore, if he possessed a sufficient number of units of power over lust, then who would be the true god of lust?

If he were to encounter the true form of the God of Lust again at that time, wouldn't he be able to simply say, "You audacious monster, how dare you steal my divine name?!" and then directly activate the power of lust to judge the true form of the God of Lust?

If that time were to actually come, even the God of Lust would probably be completely bewildered.

But then Wu You realized another problem: after he obtained the authority of the gods by killing their projections, would the total amount of authority in their original bodies decrease? Or is authority actually a renewable resource?

If authority were a renewable resource, that would be fine. But if, after seizing the authority of others, the total amount of authority in their possession were irreversibly reduced, then that would be interesting.

In that case, if he kills enough divine projections, it becomes really hard to tell who the true god is.

However, Wu You also understood that if that were the case, those gods might not have sent their projections here to bestow authority.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but touch his chin: if the guess was true, wouldn't he have invisibly intimidated those otherworldly gods, making them dare not easily let their projections descend into the real world again?

However, Wu You also felt a sense of urgency: authority is extremely important to deities, being a crucial component of their power. To seize someone's authority is to incur their wrath! The other party will certainly not let this go easily!

He needs to level up quickly!
