Chapter 225: The Unsolvable Seven Rings Curse

Chapter 225 The Unsolvable Seven Precepts Curse

"Teacher, do you know what the Seven Precepts Curse is?"

Levi asked.

Upon hearing this, Torresta pondered for a moment before saying, "I have never heard of the Seven Precepts Curse, but the Seven Sins Curse is quite famous."

Levi showed a look of curiosity.

Torresta said, "The Seven Sins are the Seven Deadly Sins: Pride, Wrath, Greed, Gluttony, Lust, Envy, Sloth."

"Usually, the Seven Sins Curse only involves one of the Seven Deadly Sins."

"A person afflicted with the Pride Curse becomes incredibly arrogant, haughty, and disdainful, marching toward destruction amidst their own conceit."

"A person afflicted with the Wrath Curse becomes extremely manic in temperament, unable to calm their spirit, prone to rage, easily overwhelmed by anger."

"A person afflicted with the Greed Curse sees their desire for greed amplified infinitely, fearing insufficiency like a snake trying to swallow an elephant, eventually dying beneath their avarice."

"A person afflicted with the Gluttony Curse knows no restraint, gluttonously consuming everything around them until death claims them."

"A person afflicted with the Lust Curse sees their lust amplified infinitely, body and mind sinking into depravity from which they cannot escape, dying when their essence is exhausted."

"A person afflicted with the Envy Curse envies all things, longing to become perfect, selfish and self-destructive, perishing from their own jealousy."

"A person afflicted with the Sloth Curse feels nothing matters, becoming lethargic to the extreme, unmoved even by life and death, dying of laziness."

"The Seven Precepts may have some connection to the Seven Deadly Sins."

Torresta made his judgment.

Since he had not heard of the Seven Precepts, he also did not know what the Seven Precepts Curse truly was.

"Thank you, Teacher."

Leaving the Sixth Layer, Levi's heart remained heavy.

He looked up at the azure sky.

"Forget it, what's the use of thinking so much? Not even knowing what the curse is, the road will open itself when the cart reaches the mountain."

"As long as it isn't a curse of sudden death, there will surely be a way to solve it sooner or later."

The deity worship ceremony lasted the entire day.

Until evening twilight, the sun set in the west.

Only then did the crowd gradually return to Maple Leaf City.

Everyone was discussing what happened today.

For the vast majority of ordinary people, this was a spectacle they might never see in a lifetime.

Some were sorrowful and pained, relatives and friends having died on Green Maple High Slope, never to return.

"Pity, I didn't receive the god's blessing."

"Did you see who received the god's blessing?"

"There weren't even ten people in total; I stood in the back and couldn't see clearly."

"I heard an ordinary young man received the god's blessing; the Mayor's Office has already recruited him into the residence, leaping over the dragon gate, soaring into the sky, truly enviable!"

...

"Torresta, why did you leave without saying a word?"

"Hmm?"

"Don't pretend; without your intervention, the Evil God avatar really might not have been killed."

"It's just a pity, why did Tier betray and join the Evil God?"

"The Reinster Family was also liquidated by the Mayor's Office, likely plummeting a thousand feet; the Berber Family's talented knight received the god's blessing, this time the Golden Shield Family might become the first family of Maple Leaf City."

"Ahem, misspoke, might become the first family of the Northern Xuan Kingdom."

"Oh, is there anything else?" Torresta said indifferently.

"Old friends rarely meet, and you are in such a hurry to drive us away?"

With a little understanding, one would know the Blue Fireball is the Armored Man's signature spell.

Torresta is also the master of the Armored Man.

Of course, he also knows the Blue Fireball technique.

Everyone believed the person who killed the Evil God Tier was Torresta.

Torresta offered no explanation either.

Late at night, Levi sat in his room, concentrating in thought.

He was thinking about one thing.

Can I still enter the Dream World now?

The eight times speed of time in the Dream World is too tempting, reducing the time needed to cultivate spells significantly.

But the problem is, Yubis has already placed a curse on me.

If I go to its territory now, wouldn't that be seeking death?

Levi pondered for a long time, yet reached no conclusion.

His heart was immensely conflicted.

"What the hell are the Seven Precepts?" After struggling for a long time, Levi finally made a decision.

Do not enter the Dream World first.

If entering the Dream World carries no danger, one day won't make a difference.

Tomorrow I will find Oats, find a priest to help resolve the curse.

The next day, early morning.

Levi arrived early at the Mayor's Office to visit Oats.

Due to yesterday's achievements of "Torresta", Oats attached great importance to his nominal sole disciple.

Moreover, Oats had always favored Levi, inviting him to join the Mayor's Office many times.

"Lord Mayor, I have a request to make," Levi said.

"Oh? Say whatever it is; if I can help, I will certainly help you," Oats said.

"I am afflicted by an Evil God curse."

As soon as Levi finished speaking, Oats' expression changed.

The Evil God is currently a thorn in his heart.

Moments later, Oats reacted, his face softening, saying, "You want to find a priest to remove the curse?"

"Yes, please help me, Lord Mayor."

Oats agreed immediately, saying, "No problem, I will take you there right now."

Several clerics were temporarily residing within the Lord's Manor.

The temple belonging to the Beixuan Kingdom was currently under construction.

Once the temple was completed, they would become the first batch of clerics in the Beixuan Kingdom.

This was also the reason why these few were willing to travel thousands of miles from the distant Central Continent to come to the Northern Border.

Establishing a new temple from scratch was a feat of immense merit.

"Bishop Dix, I have something I need your help with."

Oats had already spoken to Dix about Li Wei's situation.

Dix furrowed his brow, looking at Li Wei, gazing intently at him for a moment.

He shook his head and said, "I do not sense the aura of an Evil God."

"Since you say he is cursed by an Evil God, then I shall attempt to see if it can be exorcised."

"Please come in."

Dix invited Li Wei into the temporary temple.

Although it was a temporary temple, everything within was complete and well-equipped.

It was entirely a miniature version of a proper temple.

Li Wei looked at the statue, finding that it appeared quite new, bearing some resemblance to the form of the deity who descended yesterday.

The face was blurred.

Because deities could not be gazed upon directly, no one knew what appearance the deity truly possessed?

Under Dix's arrangement, Li Wei entered a prayer chamber.

Dix arranged a ritual around him to dispel curses.

He had Li Wei sit in the center of the ritual formation.

Then he began chanting praises to the deity, praying for a sliver of divine power to descend.

Now, the deity was watching Oats.

Dix easily summoned a wisp of divine power.

He sprinkled holy water, the divine power falling upon Li Wei along with the water.

Li Wei felt warm, like basking in the sunlight.

After a long while, Dix stopped his movements.

Looking at Li Wei, he said calmly, "There is no Evil God curse upon you."

Li Wei stood up, surprised, saying, "Impossible."

Dix stared at him for a while, saying, "Although I do not know why you are so certain you are cursed by an Evil God, I can feel that you are not lying."

"Perhaps the curse is too powerful, and I am unable to perceive it."

"You may go to the Grand Temple in the Central World and request the Cardinal Archbishop to help exorcise the curse."

Li Wei and Dix walked out of the room.

He looked at Dix, "Thank you, Bishop Dix."

"No need for thanks."

"If there is an opportunity, go to the Temple of Light; they are most skilled at handling curses."
