In the 'Underworld', the gray sky was constantly collapsing, but the tiny black-lit person was still constantly devouring the land and the dead. Its body was constantly growing, and after devouring for an unknown period of time, it finally reached 20% of a normal human's size.
Its sucking range was constantly expanding, and its small mouth, which was like a black hole, had already sucked in an uncountable number of undead.
Kali had been following not far behind the tiny black-lit person. She quietly observed the tiny black-lit person as a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes.
If she was not wrong, the tiny black-lit person was one of the seven avatars of the 'Original Sin of Calamity' — 'Gluttony'.
Regarding the greatest calamity in the human world — the "Apocalypse", there were still many mysteries. Even Kali did not fully know, but there was one thing that Kali was certain of.
If they wanted the human world to survive the fourth wave of the "Apocalypse" at the lowest price, they had to withstand the most powerful "Original Sin of Calamity" of the "Apocalypse".
Back then, the World Holy Tree and the pixies could not put up any resistance in front of the 'Original Sin of Calamity'. They were destroyed in less than a minute.
Therefore, the 'Original Sin of Calamity' was Kali's most hated enemy. Even someone as strong as she was did not have the confidence to kill the 'Original Sin of Calamity'. She even had the thought of perishing together with it.
But be it to save the human world or to avenge the annihilation of her race, she had to kill the 'Original Sin of Calamity'.
This was also the reason why she had never given her heart to anyone in the past ten thousand years. She had spent ten thousand years to make herself strong and almost invincible, but in the end, it was very likely that she would meet a tragic death.
Then why should she let others grieve over her death?
However, Shi Xiaobai had changed her mind.
Now, she was similarly determined to kill the 'Original Sin of Calamity', but she had the desire to survive.
Therefore, she had recently begun making preparations to kill the 'Original Sin of Calamity'.
According to the situation of the first three apocalypses, the "Original Sin of Calamity" had always been hidden in the human world.
The first wave of the Original Sin of Calamity was a frail old blind man.
The second wave of the Original Sin of Calamity was a Conqueror King who ruled over half a continent.
The third wave's' Original Sin of Calamity 'was a three-year-old child.
According to Kali's inference, the "Original Sin of Calamity" needed a period of hibernation to complete its transformation in the human world. Furthermore, each transformation could only last for a short period of time.
That was probably the reason why the human world had not been completely destroyed even though it had suffered three "apocalypses" without being able to fight back.
Every wave of the "Original Sin of Calamity" only lasted for less than an hour in the apocalypse. But in less than an hour, it nearly destroyed the entire world. If not for the top experts of humanity risking their lives to stop it, the "Original Sin of Calamity" would have long destroyed the human world!
Therefore, Kali had recently been searching for humans that could possibly be the dormant form of the Original Sin of Calamity, but unfortunately, the Original Sin of Calamity's concealment was just too perfect.
The human disguised as the 'Original Sin of Calamity' did not know that they were the 'Original Sin of Calamity' before they awakened. They were no different from ordinary humans. Perhaps the beggar who had broken his legs and suffered all sorts of bullying would awaken as the 'Original Sin of Calamity' the next day, bringing about the fourth apocalypse.
Kali could not find the 'Original Sin of Calamity', but thankfully, because of Shi Xiaobai, she had finally found one of the seven avatars of the 'Original Sin of Calamity', 'Gluttony'.
If the "Original Sin of Calamity" made 99% of the top experts in the human world risk their lives to stall for time.
In that case, the Clones of Original Sin were the biggest reason why there weren't many humans left after every wave of the apocalypse.
The Deadly Sin avatars could last for three days. They were not as powerful as the "Original Sin of Calamity", but they were monsters that humans could not do anything to.
These seven Deadly Sins were "Pride", "Envy", "Gluttony", "Lust", "Wrath", "Sloth", "Greed".
The Deadly Sin avatars were different from the "Original Sin of Calamity". They would experience a drastic drop in strength after every apocalypse and they would hide.
Only when the "Original Sin of Calamity" appeared would they appear again. Furthermore, they would rapidly recover their strength. For example, Gluttony would devour everything, while Lust would drain the life essence of humans …
And this "Gluttony" was supposed to appear when the fourth apocalypse arrived, but due to Shi Xiaobai's fortuitous encounter, he had been released.
This "Gluttony" probably believed that the "Original Sin of Calamity" had appeared, so it began devouring the "Underworld" to recover its strength.
The exposed "Gluttony" was still in an extremely weak state. Kali could destroy it in minutes, reducing a latent danger for the next apocalypse.
However, Kali was somewhat hesitant at this moment.
This was because her true goal was the "Original Sin of Calamity". And at this moment, if she did not kill "Gluttony", "Gluttony" might seek out the human that the "Original Sin of Calamity" manifested. As such, she might be able to strangle the "Original Sin of Calamity" in its cradle.
Kali struggled for a moment before finally making up her mind. She gently waved her hand at the tiny black-lit person, emitting a white beam of light. Instantly, the black light that lingered around the tiny black-lit person's body dissipated.
It revealed a skinless, mangled human figure.
The tiny black-lit person let out a horrified scream as it suddenly charged forward. As it charged, it howled, as though it was suffering from excruciating pain. Soon, it reached the edge of the horizon.
Kali slowly retracted her hand. She did not directly destroy "Gluttony". Instead, she placed a sacred seal on its body, preventing it from becoming stronger.
Her goal was the "Original Sin of Calamity". For this, she temporarily spared "Gluttony".
She would pay attention to the Deadly Sin avatar in the following period of time, waiting for the day it instinctively sought out the "Original Sin of Calamity".

After Shi Xiaobai stepped out of the "Door to the Underworld" with Chen Lingcun, he was first taken aback by the scene of the streets and the passersby. However, he quickly calmed down. Since he had safely left the "Underworld", it did not matter where he was sent to.
However, the voice that immediately resounded in his mind left Shi Xiaobai dumbfounded.
"Absolute Choice completed. Congratulations on obtaining a B-level reward — Grasped Basics of [Massage Technique of God]: By using the Massage Technique of God, you will be able to solve all problems in the world!"
Shi Xiaobai was considering learning the Massage Technique of God not long ago, but he never expected the Absolute Choice system to reward him directly. It did not even change the name.
However, this was a B-level reward, and it only rewarded him with the Massage Technique of God?
