Battle Royale of the Sinners

Chapter 546 - Game Over

"It's done. What's next? Recreate everything from scratch?"

Morning Star heaved a sigh of relief after he had killed the last god in Heaven. He sneered at the creator in sarcasm.

The once peaceful yet corrupted realm was now a half-destroyed dimension as Morning Star and Lilith eradicated all immortals, including all first-generation archangels.

Michael was killed by Lilith per ordered by the creator.

Morning Star destroyed Heaven by the order of the creator.

The creator, in turn, destroyed Hell and all demons, emptying the Netherworld.

On a black planet, no civilization remained. Only ruins, corpses, and soul fragments were left behind.

Karma River no longer existed in this realm. No karmic chain or snake presented to give any immortal karmic power.

Mortals in this universe were still clueless about what had happened to the afterlife worlds. They continued living their lives and enjoyed their ignorance. However, two of the culprits were exhausted even though their cultivation base was stronger than everybody else.

16 broken black wings of Lilith no longer revealed their majestic aura. Their color dimmed as if she was on the verge of death from various soul injuries.

Morning Star was in the worse shape. He lost count how many times that his soul injuries relapsed during the fight against a thousand 10-wing gods.

On the other hand, the creator, currently appeared as a bald genderless humanoid being without an eye, a nose, hair, or an ear, smiled from ear to ear.

"Well done, my children. Now that I have obtained all the lifespan I need, the next Heavenly Dragon Gathering Festival will be easy."

Heavenly Dragon Festival?

Lilith knew of this festival. It was something that she wanted to join, but the creator never revealed any information about its existence or detail."

"What's that festival anyway? Why did you have to kill off everything? If I had known that you wanted to free me to kill everyone, I would have stayed in that godforsaken dimension and raised Zhang Tong," Lilith complained in frustration.

No monitor or any tool could open a portal to Tong's universe unless the creator, the one who was holding the administrator power of this universe, created a new system skill and connected them.

In fact, Lilim's system and the creator's system was the same. Each universe had one karmic river, one managing system, and one administrator. They were the three "One Law" that controlled the entire universe's fate.

But now, the creator's universe turned into a broken one, while Tong's universe was completed.

"It's an emergency, my children. You see, the festival is more important than managing this corrupted universe. Once I get a high rank in the festival, we can always recreate lives and repair the karmic river. I might even get to rule the higher dimension and other dragons!"

The creator slowly transformed into a dragon, and his voice turned into that of a female. He revealed that he was a she. Her true form appeared as a one-kilometer-tall rainbow scaled fairy dragon.

16 Rainbow wings slowly merged into a pair of semi-transparent sparkling wings. Her scales looked soft and fragile, yet they could withstand a full-power strike from any 12-wing immortals with ease.

Her dragon figure was similar to Tong's nine cursed children. Only, her skin color was different. Tong's children were all red drakes, but the creator was a full-fledge fairy dragon. They were on a different level.

The humongous size shocked Morning Star and Lilith.

"What are you?"

This was the first time that the creator revealed her identity.

"Your creator, your ancestor, and your administrator, my foolish children. It has been fun playing with all of you for trillions of years. But it's time that we have to part."

The creator opened her mouth. A black hole emerged and pulled Morning Star and Lilith into it.

Morning Star, aka Lucifer, stared at his father (now mother) with a bitter smile, "We did everything for you. I punished evildoers for you. I even betrayed my brothers and sisters for you. Is this how you repay us?"

Lilith didn't say anything. She mumbled something to herself before a red semi-transparent screen opened before her.

[Will you transfer the Lilim Heritage Universe?]

Lilith snickered. She was the one who renamed the fragmented universe as her daughter's heritage. It would sound like an online game had she replaced the [Universe] with [Online].

This was a fail-safe program that she had rigged the creator's universe in the case that something bad might happen to her in this realm. She could abandon her body and send her soul into that world regardless of the dimension rift condition. With 16 wing strength, she wasn't afraid of the risks during the transfer.

"Yes!"

[Rebirth in … 3 … 2 … 1]

[Enjoy your new life in Lilim Heritage Universe]

Lilith's body slowly disintegrated into nothingness. Yet, she sneered at the creator.

"You can go and enjoy that stupid festival, mother! Once I see you again, you'll pay for what you've done to me a billion times!"

Lilith's body and soul were no more.

As for Lucifer, he closed his eyes and shed a tear. For the first time, he prayed for Tong, Friday, and Medusa's safety.

'Medusa, I'm sorry that I'm a failure of a father. I should have allowed you to cultivate both arts.'

'Friday… I hope that you can mature and become strong like your mother.'

'Tong… Dong Zhou. I hope you can cleanse your soul and start anew. You have done your time… more than enough.'

'All of you can't return to this universe anymore. No matter what the future brings, live strong.'

That was Morning Star's last thoughts before he was sucked into the black hole in the creator's mouth.

The creator closed her mouth and scoffed, "Good riddance."

<<Ding>>

<<Warning, Lilith has transferred her soul to Lilim Heritage Universe>>

<<Termination is impossible. Please input a new action against the illegal transfer>>

She clicked her tongue and dismissed the system menu in annoyance. However, she resummoned it again to peek at what Tong and others were doing.

Several live broadcast screen appeared. The inter-universe link was never broken. Instead, it was her who told Athena to interfere with the trial and sent a backup goddess and Lilim into that universe.

Everything was for the sake of creating a backup plan. The entire trial world that Tong was living in was there to serve as her new home in the case that she had died in the upcoming festival.

'Dong Zhuo is indeed a good seedling. Sending him to train in Hell and tossing him there was a good choice. Now, keep breeding and raising more monsters for me. Make them stronger than me or Lilith, so I can reincarnate as one of them. Oh, if I win at the festival, I won't need them anyway. HAHAHAHA!!'

.

.

.

Lilith's soul went through a dimension warm hole and arrived in Tong's universe.

Unfortunately, due to the hacking program that she had installed in the creator's system in advance, she arrived at Lilim's sub-dimension world, where Tong and Lilim kept their nine monsters here.

Since Lilith's real body was destroyed to trigger the transfer, her souls entered one of the drake monsters.

Coincidentally, she got the body of Lilith, the monster with the same name.

Lilith immediately disposed of the owner's baby soul and took over the physical body.

Upon gaining control of her new form, Lilith grumbled.

'8-Wing strength? How lame! I had 16, damn it!'

The other eight siblings stared at Lilith as if they were aware of the change. They walked backward and hissed at Lilith.

'How cute! They sound like cats!'

At first, Lilith wanted to kill all of them. But after seeing their innocent action, she changed her mind.

'I should improve this race. They're so cute!'

Lilith approached one of them. She got in front of Adam, a drake who stood in front of other siblings to protect them.

*HISSS!* (You, who are you!?)

Lilith smiled at Adam, "Relax. I've come in peace. I'm sorry that I've taken the body of your sister, but I mean no harm."

.

.

.

Tong, Medusa, Friday, and even Liu Yang felt as if they almost had a heart attack.

Liu Yang widened her eyes as she tried to locate the cause of the sudden shaking heart. Upon finding nothing, she bit her lower lips and gazed at the empty sky.

'This feeling, something is terribly wrong! It's like one of my biggest karma chains has been forcefully cut off!'

Dong Bai also clenched her heart and panted. Uncontrollably, teardrops rolled down on her cheeks as an image of Morning Star appeared in her mind. She wailed in front of other confused allies.

As for Medusa, aka Diaochan, she frowned and swallowed her tear. She took a deep breath and looked at the North Star.

'Was it you, father?'

.

Tong stopped chasing Liu Ping and clenched his chest, thinking that Liu Ping might have done something to him.

"What the f.u.c.k did you do, Ping!?"

The dragon skull on a flying bone saucer turned around. Its teeth clattered, yet Tong could hear Ping's voice.

"Leave me alone, Zhang Tong! We've fought enough! I want to live in peace!"

It was a lie. Liu Ping could sense that he wasn't strong enough to fight against Tong at the moment, so he was buying time.

"Oh, really? Then, why is the system log record tells me that you're planning to r.a.p.e my wives and torture me?"

Tong flipped his admin monitors to Ping and revealed the detailed log file, which displayed Ping's thoughts when he reincarnated into a skeleton body.

"…"

Ping stopped running away and transformed into a n.a.k.e.d human. He retained his previous life's physical body and appearance, but his strength was that of an 8-wing demon even though he didn't have any wing.

Had Ping been able to cultivate, he would have become a true monster that Tong wouldn't be able to defeat in his lifetime.

Ping was also aware of this fact, and he was hoping to buy time until he could get his first wing.

Unfortunately, Ping didn't know that Tong and Lilim had the power to delete his cultivation strength. The power of the administrator was absolute.

"You're getting c.o.c.ky, Zhang Tong. You're just a coward who relies on others to do your job!"

"Are you sure? I killed you once in the previous life myself, and I killed you a billion times in Hell, no?"

Ping's anger soared. He stopped bickering with Tong as he had another idea.

He planned to consume Tong's body and get his revenge today! As long as Ping could touch Tong, the latter would die regardless of his cultivation strength.

Ping charged at Tong at his full speed.

Although surprised by the sudden attack, Tong's muscle memory reacted in time. He dodged Liu Ping's hand that came for his neck.

Ping's body expanded outward like a balloon. His skin transformed into bone frames before they detonated into small fragments, leaving only one human skull that was storing Liu Ping's soul inside.

A million bone fragments scattered everywhere. A hundred of them hit Tong's body, but they couldn't even cause a scratch mark on his skin.

However, they got stuck to Tong's body like glue, which was Ping's aim.

"I GOT YOU NOW, ZHANG TONG!! YOUR BODY IS MINE!!"

The bone fragment began to absorb Tong's life force. One piece of bone could drain 1,000 years of lifespan per second, and over a hundred of them got stuck on Tong.

His attack was effective against stronger foes!

But still, Tong didn't look fl.u.s.tered. He raised his eyebrows, amused by Ping's struggle.

"Is that all you can do?"

Tong fiddled his admin menu. He clicked Ping's name, which was highlighted as an [Error Reincarnator].

[Will you disable [Error Reincarnator]'s abilities?]

"Yes."

*RUMBLE*

All bone pieces fell off from Tong's body. They also released the life essence that they had drained from Tong back into the air.

Tong didn't mind that he lost half a million years of lifespan just now. After all, an administrator could deposit or withdraw lifespan from the universe pool.

In the pool, Lilim stacked over a billion years in there to maintain the entire universe and the karma river. Tong could embezzle a few any time he wanted to.

<<Ding>>

Zuo Ci: "Don't waste your lifespan, Dong Zhuo. Every year is precious. Think of the time when you're still a mortal with less than a hundred years of life force."

Tong: "I know. Ping just caught me off guard."

As usual, Zuo Ci observed the situation and advised Tong from the sideline via the admin communication channel, which was similar to the clan chat system.

Meanwhile, Ping sensed that something had infiltrated his mind. All of a sudden, he couldn't feel the connection between his bone fragments and his power.

"NOOOO!!"

Ping screamed as his power slowly faded. The flame in his skull dimmed, and his consciousness blurred.

Without special abilities, the skeleton, which was created by [Necromancy] system skill, disintegrated into dust. Ping's soul was released into the world.

Tong didn't let Ping get away this time. He manipulated karma chains, which tied him and Liu Ping together for many decades. Although some of them were severed by Lilim, the grudge that they had formed a new chain.

"Jesus Christ. I finally catch you, my boy. It's time for some Hell!"

Tong wouldn't send Ping back to the river of reincarnation as the other otherworlders. After all, this bastard was beyond help.
