After speaking, the man looked at the tattered corpse on the stage with a complex expression.

    "It''s as if this guy grew countless J... tentacles and stabbed himself to death... truly damn weird..."

    Silently listening to his subordinate''s words, Gabriel gazed intensely at the body, and after a long while, sighed deeply.

    "Another unfamiliar God Demon''s Authority. At least four Hell Lord-level beings are watching this world. What exactly makes it so special?"

    Looking around, Gabriel''s delicate eyebrows gradually knitted together.

    In a typical Illusion Realm, encountering the gaze of a single High Sky Rank Demon would be considered unlucky. What virtue or ability does this world have to attract the attention of four Evil Gods at once?

    It seems she has to visit the [Yanhuang Armory] again to explain the seriousness of the situation to the people from [Dragon]!

    ......................

    Time passed.

    Completely oblivious to the tumult outside, Zhu Haomiao secluded himself in the hotel for a period, living a decadent life of eating and sleeping, and sleeping and eating every day.

    During this time, he also continuously attempted to fuse the use of [Stacked Waves Strength] and [Gale Force], but without exception, he failed every time.

    The uncontrollable Inner Breath instead caused minor injuries to his meridians, taking several days to fully recover.

    "Ridiculous! How do those with [Heroic Destiny] and [God''s Destiny] manage to fuse multiple Basic Forces? It''s simply impossible!"

    Lying on the bed, Zhu Haomiao stared unfocused at the ceiling, muttering dejectedly to himself.

    But just as he was about to give up and admit his failure, a subtle emotion quietly emerged from deep within his heart.

    No!

    Nothing is impossible!

    As long as I want it, anything can be achieved!

    Inexplicable arrogance filled his mind, and a faint Purple Gold Divine Light emerged in Zhu Haomiao''s eyes, instinctively triggering a mysterious Authority.

    [Pride]!

    With a swish, he jumped up from the bed, took down the decorative Western Sword hanging on the wall, and moved lightly around the room from slow to fast using the [Plum Blossom Step].

    Swish swish swish~

    With the movement of his steps, the long sword in Zhu Haomiao''s hand left afterimages, forming a dense curtain of swords around him. Sear?h the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    [Stacked Waves Strength]!

    [Gale Force]!

    Silver light flickered, with power and speed simultaneously surging. The crisp sound of the sword blades cutting through the air grew louder, each strike like a heavy propeller tearing the air apart, the originally crisp sword cries gradually turning into piercing shrill screams!

    At the same time, the faintly discernible curtain of swords became increasingly dense, countless afterimages even connected into a single entity, transforming into a coldly radiant silver dragon, gently twisting its body.

    The two Basic Forces fused together like milk and water, and Zhu Haomiao freely unleashed his power, a sense of exhilaration rose from the depths of his heart, making him burst into laughter.

    It wasn''t until a rapid knocking came from outside the door that Zhu Haomiao regretfully stopped his experiment and, with sword in hand, opened the room door.

    "What is it?"

    Seeing the young man looking impatient, the hotel manager was momentarily taken aback, lowering his head with a bitter face.

    "Sir, someone heard the sound of fighting in the room, and I''m worried something might have happened to you..."

    "It''s fine, no need to worry."

    Bam!

    Rudely closing the door, Zhu Haomiao hung the decorative sword back on the wall and lazily lay back on the bed, sighing with emotion.

    Turning the impossible into possible!

    The Extraordinary Power of [Pride] is simply defying the heavens!

    In theory, as long as I can bear the consumption and cost, I can completely cosplay an All-Knowing and All-Powerful God for a short time!

    Inexplicably, Zhu Haomiao remembered the scene of [Pride] losing control in reality.

    At that time, just a few tens of seconds of release brought his body and soul to the brink of collapse.

    But now, after all his actions, his body felt no exhaustion, just a bit of mental fatigue.

    The former was burning through everything, leaving him unconscious under Su E''s care for three days before waking up...

    Whereas the latter only resulted in [God] attribute consumption doubling...

    Comparing the two, Zhu Haomiao vaguely understood something.

    Even when turning the impossible into possible, the degree to which it defies the heavens determines the consumption and cost!

    Moreover, creating miracles in reality has a greater cost than in the Illusion Realm!

    After pondering for a long while, feeling his exploration of the [Book of Black] has gone deeper, Zhu Haomiao nodded slightly, looked at the remaining accumulated attributes, and had a premonition.

    With another sleep, it seems I will step into a brand-new realm...

    With a hint of curiosity, the young man slowly closed his eyes, released the [Sloth] Authority, and quickly fell into a deep sleep.

    In the next second, abstract laws congealed into invisible threads, slowly crawling out from the void, wriggling and spreading like living things, wrapping and enveloping Zhu Haomiao, transforming into a gigantic mysterious Insect Cocoon.

    Like a caterpillar undergoing Pupation, something within Zhu Haomiao quietly melted, tempered, purified, and reorganized... evolving into a purer and more perfect life form...

    At the same time, a Bronze Badge placed on the bedside table emitted a barely perceptible mysterious light, with a faint silver sheen appearing on its surface.

    Sleeping with no sense of time, as if a century had passed or simply a short afternoon nap, when Zhu Haomiao opened his eyes again, he immediately felt as if some kind of transformation had occurred within him.

    Groggily getting out of bed, he habitually went to the washroom to wash his face, but when he lifted his head to look in the mirror, he was suddenly stunned.

    Wait... who are you?!

    Glaring with wide eyes, Zhu Haomiao scrutinized himself, touched his cheeks, and pinched hard, finally confirming that the stunningly unreal beautiful young man in the mirror was indeed himself!

    Good news: he became more handsome!

    Bad news: hauntingly handsome!

    Instinctively, Zhu Haomiao looked at the page of Original Sin in the [Book of Black].

    [Lust]: LV.4 (200/500)

    Inherently, Zhu Haomiao understood the root of his change and also realized that the change in appearance was merely the most negligible manifestation of [Lust].

    Rubbing his chin, Zhu Haomiao looked at the mirror again, carefully inspecting.

    The changes in his features weren''t significant, just minor adjustments that made them more three-dimensional, harmonious, and pleasing to the eye... making anyone naturally feel a sense of goodwill at first glance.

    Any lingering signs of childishness had completely vanished, replaced by a vibrant sense of youthfulness filled with energy.

    However, the changes on the material level were only a small part; the true transformation was in the realm of his aura.

    Even Zhu Haomiao looking at himself felt a certain inexplicable dreamy haze, as if the beautiful young man in the mirror was a character stepping out from a comic, possessing an indescribable charm as he turned to and fro.

    "It''s like opening a beauty filter... just missing a couple of flowers spinning in the background... a proper manga protagonist..."

    Touching his cheeks, Zhu Haomiao couldn''t help but mutter sarcastically.
