Chapter 2707: The Death of Death

Zu An’s heart sank into the abyss. When he first reunited with Yan Xuehen, the other party had appeared to be on the verge of ‘forgetting’ him. She'd mentioned coming into contact with a power that appeared to be even more advanced than Absolute Dispassion.

Absolute Dispassion already makes one forget many emotions; wouldn’t a higher level mean forgetting everything? That resembles the state of nebula that Employee 9527 described earlier.

“Is there no way for those who have already embarked on this path to avoid a tragic end?”

“Based on the current information we have collected, there is no solution.” Zu An’s agitation sparked a thought in Employee 9527’s head. “Esteemed guest, do you have a friend who is on that path too?”

Zu An nodded. Employee 9527 sighed.

As expected of an entity who possesses a Wonderpoint World. He might be weak now, but he already harnesses tremendous fortune. Even the people around him have such extraordinary experiences.

It’s extremely rare for anyone to step onto that path, whether knowingly or unknowingly.

The Deity of Nebula was feared, but his worshipers indeed wielded incredible fighting prowess. Becoming his worshiper was considered a fortuitous encounter that many envied in the Myriad Worlds.

“Please don’t be too worried, esteemed guest. Those who have embarked on this path will inevitably descend deeper into the abyss, but there is some time before they lose themselves,” Employee 9527 said in consolation.

Zu An was still worried. I'll have to tell Yan Xuehen about this when I return. She must stop practicing her Unshakable Daoist Manual. I should also warn Chuyan against following her master’s footsteps.

Employee 9527 proceeded to introduce another universal deity, “While the Deity of Nebula induces his worshipers to lose themselves and see no meaning in the world, it’s the opposite for the Deity of Bliss and Desire. He seeks ultimate bliss. He believes that all beings have desires, but these desires are inhibited by restrictions we impose on ourselves. Only by releasing our innermost desires can we enjoy the most fundamental bliss in the world.”

Zu An remarked, “The Deity of Bliss and Desire must have many believers.”

It resembled the Devil Sect’s creed, though this was at a much higher level.

Employee 9527 burst into laughter. “Indeed. No matter the world, it is difficult for one to resist bliss and pleasure. The Deity of Bliss and Desire has many worshipers. I’ll also offer you an additional piece of information—among his worshipers are special entities known as Bliss Demonesses. They are in another class. Even the greatest experts take pride in sharing a night with a Bliss Demoness. They say there’s no greater thrill in the world.”

Judging from the other party’s envious look, Zu An could tell that Employee 9527 had never tasted that kind of sensation before. He took this opportunity to ask, “May I know what the traits of a Bliss Demoness are?”

Since Employee 9527 was already volunteering information on his own accord, it would be foolish of Zu An not to probe deeper. More importantly, he was worried that Yun Jianyue would become a Bliss Demoness. What if it comes with side effects as well?

“A Bliss Demoness can bring bliss to others, but she also has a fundamental need for bliss. For that reason, renowned Bliss Demonesses tend to have a long list of lovers.” Employee 9527 revealed a look that all men understood. “If you ever encounter a Bliss Demoness, you might be able to snag her without taking the initiative.”

Zu An was speechless. He was at a loss for words. He'd thought it was already bad enough for Yan Xuehen to have caught the Deity of Nebula’s attention, but to think that Yun Jianyue was worse off! I have to stop her from venturing deeper into this path!

“Is it possible to veer onto another path after becoming a Bliss Demoness?” Zu An hurriedly asked.

“Similar to becoming a Deity of Nebula’s worshiper, once a person becomes a Bliss Demoness, they won’t be able to break free anymore. Besides, that is a blissful thing for them. They can’t bear to let go of that happiness, so why would they veer off?” Employee 9527 suddenly thought about something and asked in astonishment, “Do you, by any chance, know a Bliss Demoness too?”

Zu An replied with a sigh, “I have a lover who has received the Deity of Bliss and Desire’s gaze. I don’t know if she’ll become a Bliss Demoness.”

Employee 9527 was astounded. “Amazing! You have both a Deity of Nebula’s worshiper and a Bliss Demoness with you!”

He was glad that he had invested in Zu An. No wonder he became a Wonderpoint World’s master. He wields incredible luck and potential.

“But that doesn’t sound to be a good thing,” Zu An exclaimed with a frown.

Employee 9527 stared at Zu An. Well, I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad thing for her, though it is a bad thing for you. You’re going to be cuckolded real bad. Of course, he knew better than to say those words aloud.

“Don’t worry too much, esteemed guest. There are all kinds of peculiar abilities in the Myriad Worlds. There might be something out there that can suppress her desire.”

Zu An was speechless.

Employee 9527 quickly changed the subject. “Moving on, there is the Deity of Longevity. All civilizations in the Myriad Worlds, no matter how prosperous or prestigious, have an intrinsic desire for longevity, especially those in positions of power. Their strong desire for eternal life created the Deity of Longevity.”

Zu An was taken aback. “Are there beings in this world who can live forever?”

In human history, Qin Shihuang had sought the immortality medicine, and the other emperors had likely tried the same too. The greater their power and authority, the more they feared death.

“It’s possible to live for a very long time—the Deity of Longevity can greatly extend a person’s lifespan—but death remains inevitable. Death is a fundamental law that has existed since the creation of the Myriad Worlds.” Employee 9527 knew Zu An possessed exceptional luck, so he gave the latter a bonus piece of information. “The Deity of Longevity created different immortal medicines that can resurrect a person, allowing them to live a second life. Each one can send experts into a rampage vying over it.”

Zu An was surprised. He hadn’t expected the immortal medicines to be from the Deity of Longevity.

“With longevity naturally comes death, but there are rumors that the Deity of Death is dead. However, he still has some worshipers. Perhaps a new Deity of Death might be crowned in the near future,” Employee 9527 said.

“The Deity of Death can die too?” Zu An was baffled.

“Of course. Some say he was killed by the Deity of Annihilation. Some say he was devoured by the Deity of Nebula. There are also speculations that he died naturally. No one knows the truth.” Employee 9527 decided to sell Zu An a favor and provide him with more information.

A thought popped into Zu An’s mind. The Netherworld was emptied out. Could that be due to the demise of the Deity of Death?
