Origin Paradise!

The old priest looked at the sand table and couldn't help but lower his head in thought. His expression gradually became complicated. The Overlord's detection range exceeded a radius of ten kilometers, which meant that the traps and ambushes they organized at the Ninth Fortress might have been a joke from the beginning. The enemy probably jumped in on their own initiative.

Roar!

A degenerate player crashed into the train wall.

Jiang He flicked out a sword finger, unleashing pure force. An invisible wave struck the enemy, shattering most of his chest.

"Ok?"

The fallen player lay on the ground struggling, half-dead. Jiang He frowned. Although it was just a casual strike from him, it was still something that a normal peak player could not withstand. It was obvious that after entering this strange state, the physical strength of the opposing players had been significantly enhanced, roughly equivalent to half of the ultimate level of physical sturdiness.

The next moment, Flash's Lament was activated.

Jiang He landed outside the train.

One after another, ferocious figures burst out of the dark thicket, moving at great speed and accompanied by howling winds.

The old priest climbed shakily out of the car window; if he had no other choice, he didn't really like fighting.

Duchess Ash raised her hand and extended her fingers, then suddenly clenched them. With the support of Gold-level Sin Energy, the power of the Betrayal Abyss was activated, causing the body and soul to betray each other, resulting in a collective dizziness.

The twenty-odd fallen players immediately stood still.

"Be careful, the quantity is far from what we expected," Duchess Ash hurriedly warned. "The effects of abnormal abilities may not be as good as anticipated."

Jiang He nodded, and silver light burst forth in his hand. Every pattern on the Long-Hate Dragon Spear seemed to shimmer with a chilling light. A dark red crescent moon rose from the ground and swept forward at lightning speed, cutting all the stunned Fallen Players in half at the waist.

—Dragon Spear Technique: The Smoke of War Rises.

Sections of the remains fell to the ground, and the fan-shaped area hundreds of meters ahead was barren, with deeper levels of destruction permanently embedded in the soil.

Roar!

The second wave of corrupt players arrived without hesitation.

Just as the Ashes Duchess was about to raise her hand again, someone swung the silver-bladed, red-patterned spear in his hand.

Boom!

The raging, pitch-black flames erupted like a volcano, and the deafening roar drowned out all the noise in the carriage. The towering pillar of fire, hundreds of meters high, was spectacular, as if dragons were intertwined within it, annihilating all living things in its range.

—Dragon Spear Technique: Brocade Gray.

After gaining the blessing of the Undying Flame Control, the Splendid Ashes displayed extremely powerful annihilation capabilities.

A burly, charred man charged through the pillar of fire. This player, who specialized in physical training, had reached the pinnacle of physical strength after his fall from grace. Even when facing powerful opponents, he could hold out for a while as long as he didn't fight to the death.

boom!

The burly man delivered a powerful punch straight to the enemy's face, and the gust of wind caused the train wall to dent violently.

Jiang He remained calm and kicked straight at the ground.

The moment fists and feet collided, the burly man's entire arm was shattered inch by inch. The pain almost brought him back from his depraved state, but the force of the attack did not diminish in the slightest. It kicked the man's upper body and killed him in one blow.

Whoosh whoosh!

The old priest summoned his mental weapon and, wielding a scythe, remotely slashed and killed more than a dozen people.

In just a few breaths, the charging column composed of Silver Peak members was wiped out, the gap between different eras was despairing.

Beneath a withered tree in the distance, Sister Temperance rose, a pure silver balance scale appearing in her hand—her mental weapon containing remnants of mythological forms and the Golden Realm.

"I am willing to pay the price of the shattering of this domain."

"In order to maximize the increase in the strength and scope of the field within a quarter of an hour."

boom!

The domain of the Sanctuary of Confessions has been swept out.

Chapter 407 Sanctuary of Confession

White light!

Within a radius of ten kilometers, the world was filled with white light.

To the desolate wilderness, the white light, filled with a sacred aura, seemed more like destruction. The giant bear that merged with the high-rise buildings, the wolf pack that coexisted with the car frame, and the boundless black grass were all reduced to ashes.

[Note: You have entered a special area - Sanctuary of Repentance (significantly enhanced). Due to the magic-suppressing effect, active skills and talents below Epic rank cannot be activated.]

The moment Jiang He heard the notification tone.

The old priest's expression changed drastically. Compared to the cannon fodder adventure group, this was truly a hostile visitor. The scythe in his hand vanished, and the Mind Image Armament was also an active ability under the extraordinary system.

The Ashes Duchess's face was grim. This was the first time she had lost contact with the Abyss Ghost since the contract was made, and an unprecedented sense of unease filled her heart. "Be careful, you two, this is definitely not ordinary gold."

call!

A nun dressed in a black and white robe swept across the ground.

Her eyes seemed to be filled with nothing but gluttony. With a flick of her wrist, a white line composed entirely of force was slashed out.

Jiang He parried with his spear, his unwavering spear technique holding the line in front.

boom!

The slash from the Sinful Sorcerer, far surpassing the power of the sword, struck Jiang He, sending him staggering backward a hundred meters and crashing into the train behind him.

Located above Dan Jin, it belongs to Gang Jin from the heroic era and has a direct effect that can be described as overwhelming.

Sister Temperance surveyed her surroundings. Her anti-magic domain, combined with the skills she had honed since childhood and her control over internal energy, could suppress the gluttony that had accumulated in this generation to the greatest extent possible.

In fact, the Church of Temperance has thousands of nuns in reserve. When Gluttony is born, the Church will select suitable nuns from the reserve and nurture them vigorously according to the target's special talents. The great power of the void has no shortage of talents and extraordinary paths. All this is to eliminate great sin in its infancy.

Jiang He narrowed his eyes. According to the Executor's exclusive notification, the enemy was a melee master with a passive level of LV73, which was a bit too high for a Gold Elite.

As for the powerful energy of the heroic era, it is even more outrageous.

boom!

Duchess Ash throws a punch at close range; as the top student of Ash Academy, she possesses exceptional close-combat skills.

Unfortunately, the enemy was a master among masters. Facing the straight punch aimed at her neck, Sister Temperance remained calm and composed. She precisely extended her palm, using the blade and joints to lock the enemy's wrist, and then thrust it out like a dragon, striking the Ashes Duchess squarely in the jaw.

The two sides were separated at the first touch.

The Ashes Duchess lost half her head and flew several miles away, utterly helpless.

Upon seeing this, the old priest turned and ran, decisively abandoning his two teammates, for he had an immense fear of death.

Fortunately, Jiang He didn't expect this guy to be of any use.

The Sister of Temperance turned and arrived instantly, her Long-Hate Dragon Spear slashing down at him. She calmly dodged to the side, rolled forward, and with a horizontal hand chop, sliced ​​off someone's shoulder.

Jiang He pushed the spear horizontally, his palm seemingly pushing against a heavy mountain.

The nun of temperance stepped back for the first time, bending backward to support herself on the ground, her black and white robes falling as she inverted.

A pair of long legs were revealed, and she immediately did a split and swept them horizontally.

The toe, imbued with powerful energy, was sharper than any famous sword in the world, leaving a gruesome wound deep into someone's abdomen, from which blood gushed out.

The nun of temperance was exceptionally flexible. She adjusted her center of gravity, going from a handstand to a semi-sitting position, and then swept her legs around once more, breaking someone's leg bone.

Jiang He remained calm as he sheathed his spear and thrust it forward.

The nun used her instep to hook the enemy's thigh, and with her body feeling as light as a feather, she circled around halfway to the enemy's back.

boom!

The spear missed its target.

Sister Temperance delivered a karate chop to Gluttony's back, pressing herself against his back. The two appeared quite intimate, but in reality, danger lurked everywhere.

Melee combat, close-quarters fighting, is an extremely niche skill category even in the boundless void. Using it against Gluttony would be difficult for the target to handle due to their lack of experience in combat.

A calloused hand pierced through her chest, shattering her heart. The powerful force crushed the prey's resistance. Sister Moderation could feel the strength of the hand gripping the back of her hand rapidly waning.

“You shall atone for your sins with your blood.”

“Come back with me, and the gods will personally preside over your pardon ceremony.”

In the boundless void, each of the seven deadly sins is unique. If this generation of Gluttony does not die, then there is no way to talk about the next generation of Gluttony. The Holy Kingdom's plan to eliminate Gluttony is more thorough than physical destruction. As long as Gluttony is permanently sealed away, then in a sense it is equivalent to this great sin disappearing from history.

The hunt is over.

The old priest stood at a distance, his body ice-cold. This super force, which specialized in hunting down juvenile sinners, was as unreasonable as a void rogue.

As the ground sank in, Duchess Ash gritted her teeth and stood up. Putting aside Amber's importance to the Empire, the mere fact that the other party might be able to restore her father to his former strength meant she could not easily admit defeat.

Suddenly, their expressions changed drastically.

The white light between heaven and earth collapsed and vanished, and stubborn decay spread back, as if the momentary purification was just an illusion.

A flicker of fear crossed the nun's eyes.

"Boring," Jiang He said calmly.

The next moment, the final time loop was activated.

But his target was not himself, but Sister Temperance, who was nearby.

As the power of time emerged, the Temperance Sisters' state was refreshed, specifically five years ago.

Her magic-suppressing domain was collapsing, her regained golden body and golden energy were dissipating, and the balance scales that served as her mental weapon were cracked and then turned to dust.

Jiang He's grip tightened rapidly, and the sound of bones cracking rang out from her tightly clasped hands.

"I am indeed a glutton, but I am not entirely a glutton."

"Gluttony is just one of the forces."

"We're both at the peak of Silver rank, you're not planning to defeat me just by relying on your internal energy, are you?"

Sister Temperance stood frozen in place, and in the blink of an eye, she transformed back into herself five years earlier, the time she had just arrived in the world.

The old priest was dumbfounded. He seemed to have run too early. If he had known this would be the result, he would have gone forward to offer his condolences.

Duchess Ash breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang He activated God Hunting and Night Hunting, turned around, and blasted the head of the Restraint Sister to pieces. Since he was not very clear about higher beings and gods, he did not intend to do anything unnecessary, lest he become a clown.

Of the seven strongest forces in the world, one has now been lost.

Jiang He sensed his own state and reversed the enemy's state by five years, consuming tens of thousands of energy points.

"It's still acceptable."

The old priest cautiously approached and said with an embarrassed smile, "Sir, I originally planned a strategic retreat to buy you time."

“There’s no need for such obsequiousness at first and arrogance later,” Jiang He said calmly. “We’ve never really been friends for life.”

He was surprised that the other party didn't run away.

The train conductor arrived to repair the train wall. He was a Stone Sin mage with his own domain, so repairing the damage was very easy for him.

"Please get in the car quickly, everyone. We shouldn't stay here any longer."

The train conductor's eyes darted around. As a top-tier fighter, he felt a little guilty for not participating in the battle.

However, nobody cared about this. Duchess Ash thought it was only natural, the old priest regarded her as a kindred spirit, and Jiang He was completely indifferent.

The exterior wall was repaired, and the sound of the steam whistle echoed.

The train clattered back onto the tracks.

Chapter 408 Ash Academy

The distant, hazy mountain ridges gradually became clear.

The energy source for the Circum-the-Country Train comes from obsidian slurry, which has a low conversion efficiency but is extremely stable. As for the serious pollution it contains, there is no need to care about it in the Ash Age.

"I'm going into labor!"

In the cubicle, Jiang He's brief 15-minute rest was interrupted. She was jolted awake from her half-sleep. The moment her consciousness returned, it was as if she had been struck by lightning. To the overlord's sensitive hearing, this pure and meaningless shriek was nothing short of noise.

"What's going on?" Jiang He asked in a low voice.

Beside him, Green turned his head and replied, "Someone is about to give birth. The attack was too loud, so it's probably not a normal delivery."

The old priest, cracking nuts that looked like sunflower seeds, saw someone wake up and, looking slightly tired, handed them a handful.

While the opponent rested, everyone present, as long as their life level was above the peak of Silver, felt a chilling lock-on, which, unlike killing intent, contained a faint sense of destiny.
