Chapter 464: Virtue and Sin

There were three holy trees in the human world, one named "Fate", one named "Time", and the other named "World".

The elves are special lives born in the "World Holy Tree". The ripening of the fruit of each World Holy Tree means the birth of an elf baby.

Elfs have been called the "incarnation of beauty" since ancient times, not only because most elves are beautiful, but also because the moment the elves were born, they were given blessings called "Seven Virtues" by the world holy tree.

For human beings, the theory of human nature being good and human nature being evil have always been endless topics of debate. The behavior of babies is used to explore the initial good and evil of human nature, and whether human beings have learned good behavior or were infected with bad habits in their life. Even if they have been debated for thousands of years, they will never be able to argue. Because from their respective perspectives and standpoints, the explanations obtained by both parties are reasonable, and no one can completely refute the other party, and no one can prove that they are absolutely correct.

However, there is no such embarrassing debate for elves, because "born good and beautiful" is the greatest favor of the world's holy tree to elves.

The elves possess seven precious "virtues" as soon as they are born - chastity, moderation, generosity, diligence, patience, tolerance, and humility.

However, although an elf has virtues, it has to undergo worldly baptism and gradually changes in growth. For example, an elf does not need to work because of her wealthy family and lives a life of food and clothing. Her "diligence" virtues will be worn out in this day after day abandonment.

There are very few elves that can maintain the seven virtues throughout their lives and do not disappear. Only the "Holy Elf" recorded in the legend truly retains all the seven virtues, but the "Holy Elf" is just a legend after all, and it is impossible to tell whether it is fiction or real.

Normally, elves with good education can generally maintain two to three virtues, but the rest will disappear as they grow and become less different from ordinary humans.

However, for the elves born with virtue, there is one thing that is never allowed and despised - virtue can disappear, but it must not become sin.

For example, "diligence" can disappear, but it must not become "lazy".

"Chastness" can be lost, but you must never indulge in "lust"...

Elf can indulge the virtues given by the World Holy Tree and regard them as their own incompetence, but they must not be infected with the seven original sins corresponding to the seven virtues, because that is the most serious betrayal for the World Holy Tree that gave birth to them.

Any elves who are infected with any "sin" among the Seven Original Sins, whether they are elves, civilians, elves nobles, or even elves queens, as long as they are infected with "sin", they will be regarded as "fallen elves". They will be expelled at the least, and will be killed at the worst.

"Fallen Elf" is the most despised race of the elves. However, sadly, while the World Holy Tree granted them seven virtues, it planted the seeds of "Fallen".

Because as long as you destroy a certain "virtue" of your own and actively "fall" into "sin", you can trigger the seeds hidden in the elves and allow the elves to temporarily gain explosive power.

In exchange for power by "fall" is the best gift given to the world's holy tree when they give them elves, but it is also the most malicious test.

Because even the elves who yearn for peace have to surrender to power, they must make a choice whether to obtain the necessary power at the cost of "sin", especially when facing the hunting of greedy humans, their life, chastity and dignity are threatened, and whether these things are more important than "virtue" becomes their most difficult choice.

Most elves will choose "fall" to resolve the crisis at the most critical moment. Even if that means betraying the world's holy tree, it is easier than betraying themselves.

This is the origin of the fallen and the fallen elves. Their first were elves who were born with seven virtues.

......

Ten thousand years ago, the first "Doomsday Tribulation" came to the human world.

The strongest destroyer of the catastrophe, the original sin of the heavenly tribulation, gave priority to destroying the three holy trees, which are the pillars of the human world, and the holy trees of the world naturally could not escape this disaster.

After that, the seven original sins, as "cleaners", began to slaughter the living creatures in the human world, and the elves suffered a catastrophe.

In that disaster of extermination, the only one of the elfs survived fortunately.

The only surviving elf is the flower glass chosen by the world's holy tree as the inheritor because of his childhood, but he still retains seven virtues.

Without the reproduction of the world holy tree, Huali became the last elf in the human world.

Since then, Huali has realized her destiny and mission, and once secretly vowed that in order to preserve the last bloodline of the elves, she will never use the power of the "fallen seed" and will never become a "fallen elves".

Fortunately, she, who has obtained the inheritance of the world holy tree, has possessed almost invincible power from the beginning, and has always turned into an "ugly old woman" when traveling through different plane worlds. Therefore, she has not encountered a desperate situation in which she needs to use the "fallen seeds" for 10,000 years.

Although during her ten thousand years of travel, she lost her "tolerance" because of her inhumane enemies, her "humility" because of her overly powerful force, and her "diligence" because of her ability to transmit space across half the world without walking, she has no degeneration and has never encountered a crisis of active degeneration, which is already an incredible miracle.

However, not long ago, when she entered the Nine-Turn Supernatural Tower and sealed herself, she was trapped by the God-killing formation arranged by the four tower lords as the array eyes, in order to save Shi Xiaobai, who almost died, she fell into a desperate situation where she had to use the "fallen seed".

When "Sacrifice Shi Xiaobai" and "Sacrifice Self" were placed on the same flat on the same day, Huali chose the latter without hesitation.

She destroyed the virtue called "Patience", took the initiative to accept the sin called "anger", and in order to save Shi Xiaobai, she violated her oath, betrayed the world holy tree, and became a "fallen elves".

She did not regret this, even if she did it again, she would make the same choice.

Although compared with ten thousand years, the time when I met Shi Xiaobai was as short as a grain of dust in the desert, for her, this short time was more precious than that long ten thousand years.

Because over the past ten thousand years, the long life is not just life, but also the loneliness of being alone.

In this short period of recent times, she secretly observed Shi Xiaobai's colorful adventures, watching him laugh happily, sometimes angry, sometimes sad, sometimes passionate, sometimes desperate...

Although he had never noticed her gaze that penetrated the space, although he knew nothing when she smiled or frowned slightly, and although she was just a lonely observer, she did not feel lonely at all.

What she got from Shi Xiaobai was much more than she thought.

Therefore, how could she stand by and watch the life that filled her "emptiness" is destroyed?

How could she allow the young man who has a loftier ideal than anyone else to die at the beginning of his journey?

Even if she had to deceive herself with the lie that "I am not an ordinary elves, but equivalent to the inheritor of the world's holy tree, even if she became a fallen elves, she would betray her own. This is just a trivial matter." She would never let that young man fall into eternal night's sleep.

So she chose "fall" to complete his "salvation".

She didn't regret it at all.

But the subsequent development made her regret until now.

Shi Xiaobai did not let her down and even gave her unimaginable rewards.

He "snatched" her "degenerate".

How did she "snatch"? Even she was a little confused in the process. She only remembered that she was panicked and shy because she was suddenly "pushed down" by him, and was worried about how to refuse. He gently rewarded her efforts.

But this "repayment" is heavy like a "repayment" to her.

Shi Xiaobai snatched the sin called "anger" from her, turning her into a pure elf who was not implicated by sin. For this reason, he paid the expensive price that he could be dominated by "anger" or tempted by "fall".

Huali felt guilty for her negligence, but more so she was moved.

True love is like her "selfless" dedication.

And being truly loved is the reward of "selfish" like him.

The first thing Huali did after leaving the Nine-Turn Supernatural Tower was to search through all the information about "fall".

Seven Original Sin is keen on destroying creatures, but she has no habit of burning books. Therefore, she luckily retained some of the elf’s classics ten thousand years ago.

However, after reading through the thick classics, the more she learned about "degenerate", the more she became confused.

Because all books that describe "fall" are based on an unignorable premise-the identity of the fallen is the elves.

Yes, there is no description of humans who have planted the seeds of sin because of "fall"!

For humans, virtue and sin both originate from human nature, but are just the differentiation of the two ends of human nature, which is normal. Therefore, when the "seeds of sin" that belongs to the elves are sown in the flower field of human souls, there is no previous example to follow.

Without a lesson from the past, this is the most embarrassing situation.

Shi Xiaobai took away the sin seed called "anger" from her. It is impossible to predict what changes will happen and what changes will happen.

It was not until Shi Xiaobai fell into a desperate situation again that she smiled bitterly as she was smiling at how many times this young man who had just practiced for a while, and was willing to give up when he was reluctant to make a decision.

This time is different from before, and she cannot make decisions with an absolutely calm mind. Due to the deliberate arrangements of the demon queen, she can only save one side. Once she takes action to save Shi Xiaobai, it means giving up the other seven newcomers who are in danger to save Shi Xiaobai. Even though she has no habit of caring about "morality", such "gratitude will bring revenge" is still too unfaithful.

Therefore, on the verge of danger, the only way for him and them to achieve a perfect ending together is to save each other or save themselves.

However, the newcomers who were captured by the shadow by the ninth-level lord "Shadow Ghost" probably had no room for resistance.

He ran wildly in his arms with the girl in his arms. Shi Xiaobai, who fell for the sixth time, seemed to have no strength to get up again.

Things have come to this point, it should be a desperate situation - if Shi Xiaobai's body did not have the "angry evil seed" that was "snatched away" from her.

The "Evil Evil" exerts its reliable yet abominable power.

Shi Xiaobai once again gained the power given by "fall".

Huali didn't expect this at all because this was the first change that had occurred so far.

Elf can gain power by destroying "virtues" and giving birth to the fall of "sin", but they can only be used once in their lifetime.

If you can gain power far exceeds your own countless times, it will not be a gift from the World Holy Tree, but a "plug-in" that breaks the rules.

But as the precedent of human beings gaining the seeds of sin appeared, the rules were also broken.

Only when the elves fall for the first time can they gain power. If the direction of the elves is "anger", they will become easily out of control and angry in the future, which is equivalent to being infected with irritable bad habits.

But this was the second time Shi Xiaobai gained power far beyond his own due to "anger"!

What's the situation?

Degenerate after falling?

After falling into anger, he gained strength again, so what is the price he will pay?

Hua Li was surprised and suspicious. She forced herself to calm down and carefully observed Shi Xiaobai, who had lost his mind due to "anger", torture the monsters in the formation world.

Still as powerful and cold as he was when he was tortured the four tower lords, and still the cruel method of tearing the prey with both hands, and still letting the blood stain himself into a silver-haired devil...

Compared with the first "anger", there seems to be no change, but if you observe carefully, you will find that this time Shi Xiaobai is obviously more colder than before, and is more decisive to tear his prey, and is more like a "devil" who follows the killing instinct.

This means that compared with the last time, Shi Xiaobai's remaining self-consciousness became more blurred and slim in a state of "angry".

——But although he paid a heavy price, Shi Xiaobai finally completed the "self-rescue".

Just as Huali comforted herself with such a crappy statement, the story reached a bleak trough.

Because of Li Chenxi's awakening and calling, "Shi Xiaobai", who was already the same as the devil, finally realized her existence.
