CHAPTER 516: CHAPTER 436: THE GREAT HELL OF BONES

(My sincerest apologies, I’ve recently moved back to my hometown, and have been sorting and handling various matters these days. I’ve finally found a place to work and set up my computer keyboard again!

Starting tomorrow, there will be a surge in updates! My deepest apologies, I will update more to express my regret!)

"So now, what do we do with this fragment of the Key of Truth?"

Upon hearing Lilith’s inquiry, Lette pondered for a moment.

"Of course, we should recast it, but... I don’t intend to recast it according to the original plan; instead, I want to try a different approach!"

Fiddling with the fragment of the Key of Truth in his hand, Lette squinted slightly.

If according to the original design concept of the Profanity Monarch, when all fragments are powered and activated, they would be melted into one.

Then, the cicada shedding world he originally left behind would also be assembled into a complete world.

This world is clearly different from the sea’s shell world; it’s evidently filled with things, likely remnants of Divine Anointing left by the Profanity Monarch.

Even if by then, the Profanity Monarch can’t resurrect through this, to use the complete Key of Truth, one must first become the Anointer of the Profanity Monarch.

For the average person, this might be a great opportunity!

But for Lette, he does not want any of his people deeply bound to the Profanity Monarch, let alone becoming an Anointer.

And if it’s not one of his own, he can’t be assured to hand over the Key of Truth, this treasure for the Gate of Truth, for others to use.

Perhaps, the Dragon Clan had similar concerns back then.

To use the Key of Truth, the user must become the Divine Servant of the Profanity Monarch.

It would be easy to end up empty-handed after a lot of effort, unwittingly making a wedding dress for others.

In such a view, this thing seems really quite useless.

However, Lette now has thought of a solution.

"I want to retain its functionality, and then recast the Key of Truth. Keep its original functionality while severing its relationship with the Profanity Monarch."

Lilith’s spirit immediately lifted: "Can it really be done?"

"It’s quite simple; just don’t forge it according to the original plan."

As Lette spoke, he reached out and selected one already activated fragment, holding it carefully in his hand.

"For instance, this one, there is a large missing space inside, which is quite wasteful.

And the Nether Beach, it’s an aggregate composed of materials repelled by the Nether Sea."

Lette tilted his head, looking at Lilith: "Don’t you think their relationship is like yolk and egg white, quite in harmony?"

Lilith initially didn’t react, but then suddenly realized.

"You, you, you! Your thought is too crazy!"

"This is called reasonable waste utilization."

Lette flicked the fragment of the Key of Truth, and the small thing immediately flew into the sky over the White Bone Plain, then suddenly unfolded its shattered world.

This shattered world was like a worm-eaten piece of wood, while the Nether Beach was composed of countless remnants of shattered worlds.

Lette barely exerted any effort, and the broken world began furiously devouring the current area’s Nether Beach.

In the blink of an eye, the entire White Bone Plain had vanished.

Meanwhile, the world within the fragment of the Key of Truth was already filled to the brim.

Of course, if the real world were a stone, this small world would be like a shell filled with a handful of sand.

For ordinary creatures, it could be said to be more severe than the abyss’s living conditions.

But for dead spirits, it was just right.

"You... created such a cruel living environment, what’s the use?"

Lette looked at the fragment in his hand and laughed: "Of course, it’s for punishment! Punishment of sin!

In my view, the existence of the Demon World Thirteen Prisons completely parallels the Divine Realm.

And the Nether Sea is so void, so monotonous!

The so-called afterlife rules are crude, the intent vague, barely worthy of respect!

Only by fearing death can life truly be cherished!

There must be a fearsome afterlife world where everyone knows that the sins committed while living cannot simply be wiped away by death, to maintain order in the world!

I want to use this small world within the Key of Truth to forge a Dakmos Sword hanging above everyone’s head!"

Saying this, Lette suddenly threw the activated fragment toward the direction of Holy Flame Bone City and the other four underground cities.

This thing, like a meteor cutting through Nether Beach’s eternal night sky, finally fell in the middle of the four cities.

With the fragment’s descent, a new underground city was formed beneath the underground city!

For the first time, Nether Beach had thickness, and a new plane was hence born.

Lette looked in that direction, grinning.

"From today, that place shall be called the Great Hell of Bones!"

Lilith grabbed Lette’s arm: "Wait, do you know what you’re doing?

You’re attempting to forge a new life and death system by yourself!

The Nether Sea, the great will of the Nether Sea, will never let you off!"

Lette looked at Lilith with a puzzled expression: "Then look, does the Nether Sea react?"

Lilith looked into the distance; the endless Nether Sea remained calm, hardly raising any waves, as though nothing had happened.

She grabbed her hair; as a prominent figure in the Demon Realm, Lilith had seen countless Demon God Emperors and Demon God Monarchs attempting to construct a death system of their own to capture more sinful souls from the present world and strengthen their forces.

But the result was often punished by the will of the Nether Sea, with the severe cases even being directly erased!

Yet Lette, astonishingly, faced no repercussions!

Could it really be that the Nether Sea is yours?

No! That’s not right!

Lilith had a flash of inspiration: "I understand, it’s authorization! The Nether Sea had once given you full authority over death.

So, even if you privately established life and death systems, you weren’t overstepping bounds!

So, there was no punishment!"

Lette wiggled his finger: "Things often cannot just be seen on the surface, you need to dig to the root.

As I just said, the way the great will of the Nether Sea handles matters after death is too vague.

This leads to death lacking the function of rewarding virtue and punishing evil, only having the simplest, even crude, basic function!

This is not me slandering or defaming the Nether Sea.

It is a genuine problem that exists!

So here comes the problem!

Since it’s a problem! It should be resolved.

Once the issue is solved, who benefits?

The Nether Sea!

My solution to this problem will greatly enhance the functionality of the Nether Sea, improve the image of the great will of the Nether Sea!

Let authority be distinct, let responsibility be divided! Let matters develop in a more beautiful direction!

Although it seems I’m the beneficiary, the Nether Sea is also a beneficiary, perhaps even the greatest beneficiary.

Since it’s an inherently win-win or even multi-win situation, why would the Nether Sea punish me?

Therefore, it’s not that I’m exploiting a loophole to escape punishment.

Rather, the punishment itself does not exist!"

Lilith almost got dizzy from Lette’s words, she shook her head, and still very concerned, asked him.

"Then you, won’t really be punished by the great will of the Nether Sea?"

"Punish for what!"

Lette put his hands on his hips and laughed heartily: "He should be thanking us!"

Before he finished, a Divine Treasure emerged from the Nether Sea, radiating dazzling divine light, flying towards Lette and Lilith!
