Chapter 1352: Eminent Desolation is Сomplete! (Long chapter)

The morning light fell from the sky, sprinkling over the ruins of Peerless City and enveloping the world.

In this light, the young Xu Qing was motionless, as if time had frozen around him.

In front of him, the adult Xu Qing from the future gradually appeared amidst the resplendent morning glow.

His long black robes fluttered in the wind, emitting flapping sounds.

His long purple hair fluttered in the wind, and each strand of hair seemed to contain the origin power of the Star Ring.

As he walked over, the Wanggu Continent began to tremble.

The earth trembled, the sky churned, and the entire Wanggu seemed to begin to wake up at this moment, emitting a sense of welcome.

Not only the Wanggu, but also the Brilliant Heaven under the Wanggu!

It was as if… the figure that walked out of the light was the origin of the Wanggu, the beginning of the Brilliant Heaven!

As a result, auspicious signs appeared in all directions, and auspicious colors formed in the morning light.

They were all welcoming him!

When the figure in the light was completely revealed, heaven and earth roared.

An earth-shattering force erupted from his body, accompanied by the resonance of the Wanggu and the Brilliant Heaven, accompanied by an aura that surpassed the Summer Immortal…

That was… an Immortal Lord!

And not an ordinary Immortal Lord, but a peak Immortal Lord!

What was even more shocking was that behind Xu Qing, another adult version of himself seemed to be vaguely visible.

Just like the Twin Mother Planet!

He stood there, looking back at his childhood that had been frozen in time, and then at Zi Qing, who was looking at him in the distance.

After a long while, he stepped toward Zi Qing.

Step by step, he crossed the frozen time, walked through the viscous blood, and came in front of Zi Qing in the rain of blood in the light.

Looking at Zi Qing, Xu Qing said calmly.

"Why didn't the Eminent Desolation come to stop my breakthrough?"

Zi Qing was smiling.

At this time, he had just recovered, so he neither had the cultivation of his previous life, nor the God Lord Realm that he had in the Heaven-Devouring Region.

At this moment, there was only a strong godhood in his body.

In front of Xu Qing, he was weak.

But he didn't care.

He looked at Xu Qing with a smile, and his eyes were full of admiration and gratification, as well as a strong sense of expectation.

"Before I tell you the answer, brother, I want to ask you, do you… know who you are?"

Xu Qing was silent, looking at Zi Qing coldly, and did not speak.

Zi Qing's smile.

"You don't know…"

"You can't possibly know!"

Zi Qing looked at Xu Qing with a strong light in his eyes.

"Brother, I've been looking for you for many years… but I never thought it was you…"

"Until I walked into this life's fate multiple times and experienced all sorts of things in different outcomes, including the day when Peerless City was sacrificed… I ignored you in some fates, and in some fates, I took you away. And in your fate, I destroyed you."

"This is also why your memory of Peerless City is so messed up!"

"And after doing so, I finally found some clues…"

"But I'm still not sure. That's why I left you to your own devices and allowed you to grow… I saw the first half of your life clearly in Fate.

Including your slaughter, your apprenticeship, all the different choices you made, the different ways you did things, and the different fates you gave birth to, I am clear about it all."

He looked at each frame carefully.

Originally, I planned to bring you back to the Violet and Cyan Kingdom and offer you as a sacrifice. "

"Until in the Human Race's Royal Capital, I finally saw the chair in the depths of your soul.

Little brother, do you know that on that day, at that moment, I saw your true fate, and it resolved the questions that had plagued me for a long time. At the same time, I saw the true opportunity in the fate that I had been scheming for… "

Zi Qing said with a smile, telling him everything!

"So, of course, I did my best to influence the Eminent Desolation and not let it appear to interfere with your devouring of the Primordial Mother Planet."

"More than you, I hope that you can succeed."

Zi Qing laughed, and the anticipation in his eyes grew.

Hearing these words, Xu Qing was silent for a long time before he looked at the anticipation in Zi Qing's eyes and slowly spoke.

"Who the hell are you?"

Hearing this, Zi Qing laughed even louder.

"Who am I…"

As he laughed, a complicated expression appeared on his face.

"I have many identities. I am Crown Prince Zi Qing in history, I am the one who saved the Human Race's fate, I am the one who looked at the past, and I am also the one who reincarnated Brilliant Heaven's will!"

"But I have another identity, which I only found out after I sacrificed myself…"

"The Eminent Desolation is also me!"

Zi Qing's voice echoed.

It shook the world.

Although this answer was within Xu Qing's expectations, Xu Qing's gaze deepened when he heard this sentence.

However, Zi Qing's voice was still continuing.

"Or to be precise, Brother, I was a possibility that was released after the Eminent Desolation entered the god's umbilical cord and was promoted to a half-step Living God!

He sent this possibility out of the god's umbilical cord and integrated it into the Star Ring where he was born, which was located in the Primordial Mother Planet of Brilliant Heaven.

This was the hope that He left for himself!

If He died in the process of breakthrough to a Living God, then this possibility that He released would replace him and become the new Him! "

"But accidents also happened because of this…"

Zi Qing raised her hand and pointed to the sky.

"After he failed, he didn't really die, but came here to look for me!"

"And I was born by the Primordial Mother Planet in order to save itself!"

"So, He can be me, and I can also be Him!"

Hearing this, Xu Qing suddenly spoke.

"He didn't come here to look for you!"

Zi Qing looked at Xu Qing, and the light in her eyes became brighter.

"Of course, he wasn't looking for me. Just like me, he was… looking for you, Brother!"

"It's just that my purpose is different from his, and he didn't have much consciousness left, only instinct, so he could only sleep more. So, I found you before he did, and under my influence, he always ignored you."

"So, you could be in his eyes and not be discovered."

"Now, I've solved your doubts, Brother… it's your turn!"

"With the power of the Primordial Mother Planet that you devoured, engrave my name on the third door on the right side of the chair in the long corridor in the depths of your soul!"

"As a reward… after I succeed, I will guide the Broken Face away, and from then on, I will return you a clean and peaceful Wanggu without any foreign existences!"

"At the same time, I will sweep the entire ninth star ring for you, so that there will no longer be any God Lords in the ninth star ring and no longer be a threat to you!"

"The ninth star ring will become the world of cultivators, and it will become your star ring!"

"In addition, after I succeed, I will tell you who you are!

This is an absolute secret that only I know! "

"Also, after I succeed, I will return the sacrificed Peerless City from fate, including your parents, and revive them so that you can reunite!"

"Brother, what do you think of this deal?"

The anticipation in Zi Qing's eyes was extremely strong after he finished speaking.

He saw the result from all the fates, and he knew that Xu Qing… would definitely agree!

And his voice had become a godly contract, a part of the rules of the ninth star ring. Xu Qing could clearly sense this, and he knew that Zi Qing wasn't lying.

He would really do it.

Xu Qing looked at Zi Qing, then looked up at the Broken Face in the sky.

After a long while, he said softly.

"I refuse!"

The moment he said these three words, he had already raised his right hand and directly slammed it down.

While Zi Qing was stunned, a terrifying power burst out from Xu Qing's palm, forming a destructive power that swept everything and rushed into Zi Qing's body.

It collapsed the godhood and cut off the karma.

Zi Qing's flesh and blood scattered everywhere.

And Xu Qing's murmured voice echoed.

"Everything you said, I choose to do it myself."

"As for your attempt to possess Eminent Desolation… whether it succeeds depends on your luck."

After Xu Qing finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved, throwing Zi Qing's flesh and blood into the sky and the Broken Face.

"Sacrifice!"

At this moment, heaven and earth rumbled!

Zi Qing's flesh and blood was rising into the sky.

Xu Qing raised his head and looked through the rising flesh and blood to the Broken Face.

Zi Qing's goal was to replace Eminent Desolation!

Xu Qing was completely clear about this point.

And Zi Qing's request was for him to carve his name on the third door…

Obviously, this was the path that was most in line with Zi Qing's goal.

This would make it easier for him to possess Eminent Desolation, and the risk would also be reduced.

Therefore, Xu Qing chose to refuse.

Although he knew that according to Zi Qing's plan, his refusal might be within Zi Qing's scope, at least… this was the path that Xu Qing had chosen for Zi Qing.

And this was indeed the case.

The moment Zi Qing's flesh and blood rose into the sky, a sudden change occurred!

In this space-time, a pillar of black fog that was a million miles wide rose into the sky!

It went straight to the sky!

This fog was pitch-black to the extreme, and the moment it appeared, there was a dense strange aura that erupted from within, accompanied by waves of ghostly wails and howls.

It echoed in the world.

And it was not the only one… At this moment, in this space-time, the entire Wanggu was rumbling.

Similar pillars of black fog appeared one after another in various places, all of them rising into the sky!

There were so many of them that they filled the entire Wanggu.

There were a total of 99,999 pillars!

Their appearance shook the sky and shocked everyone.

As the black fog gathered, the entire sky of Wanggu… was instantly dyed!

The black fog covered everything and drowned everything, causing the sky of Wanggu… to become a sky of black fog!

Looking at all of this, Xu Qing's eyes revealed a dark light. He recognized that this was the power of the Strange Realm!

Before his battle with Zi Qing, Jade Glazed Dust had warned him that Zi Qing had sensed the aura of the Strange Realm in his countless stories.

Obviously, the Strange Realm was set up by Zi Qing!

At this moment, Zi Qing's voice sounded between heaven and earth!

"If I succeed, there will be more Strange Realm in the world!"

This voice was strange. The moment it echoed in all directions, the sky of black fog rumbled and churned violently. Then… the black fog suddenly exploded, as if the Strange Realm had opened!

Amidst the tumbling and eruption, countless black shadows charged out from the black fog.

They suddenly converged towards Peerless City!

They converged towards Zi Qing's rising flesh and blood!

In an instant, they enveloped the flesh and blood. Then, the flesh and blood decayed and rapidly melted. When they finally disappeared completely, countless black shadows… had already completely filled the place where Zi Qing's flesh and blood were.

As they spread out, they squirmed with each other and formed a …

Broken Face!

The broken face was huge. In terms of outline, it was extremely similar to the broken face of the Eminent Desolation.

To be precise, it was the half of the broken face that the Eminent Desolation lacked!

However, it was not formed by flesh and blood, but by the fusion of black shadows.

It formed a Shadow Broken Face!

It was pitch-black and did not exist!

Under Xu Qing's gaze, the eyes of the Shadow Broken Face suddenly opened, revealing a scarlet light.

He was Zi Qing!

At this moment, after opening his scarlet eyes, he looked at Xu Qing on the ground with a complicated expression.

Xu Qing's choice surprised him. This made him have no choice but to carry out the second preparation he had prepared!

Open the Strange Realm and borrow its power!

However, he did not want to choose this choice as long as there were other possibilities.

But now, it had appeared.

He could only use the Strange Realm to create karma and form this shadow face.

"Alright, I schemed against you first… Now, our karma ends here."

Thus, after staring at Xu Qing, the complicated expression in Zi Qing's eyes turned into determination. With a flash… he headed straight for the sky!

He headed straight for the broken face of the Eminent Desolation.

He wanted to piece together a complete face with the broken face of the Eminent Desolation.

He wanted to possess it!

It was exactly what the Strange Realm had said…

"Like a shadow, existing with the God."

As he rose into the sky, more black shadows spread out from the black fog of the Strange Realm. They continued to gather towards the broken face formed by Zi Qing, causing it to grow larger and larger.

It became more and more vast.

Under Xu Qing's gaze, the shadow face finally reached the end of the sky and reached the side of the broken face of the Eminent Desolation. Then… it directly pieced together with the broken face of the Eminent Desolation!

A complete face appeared in the sky!

However, half of it was a shadow face, and the other half was flesh and blood.

Zi Qing was the reincarnation of the broken face, but it was almost impossible for him to rely on his own will. Therefore, he wanted to carve his name on Xu Qing's door. Now that his first plan had failed, he could only use the Strange Realm to replace the broken face with the identity of a strange person.

She wanted to become… a strange person like God!

However… the risk of this was extremely great. The moment the face of the Eminent Desolation was pieced together, the remaining will of the Eminent Desolation suddenly awakened and directly rejected the power of the Strange Realm that Zi Qing had fused with!

Therefore, the face of the Eminent Desolation in the sky instantly separated and then stuck together again.

It fell into chaos and collapse!

It was also at the most critical moment!

It affected the world, the Wanggu, the ninth star ring, and fate!

At the same time… it also gave an unprecedented opportunity to the outside world!

"You will definitely come!"

Xu Qing looked at all of this from the ground and narrowed his eyes.

Almost at the moment his words echoed in his heart…

Outside the Wanggu, the starry sky rumbled!

A Black Pagoda that symbolized endless imprisonment and the annihilation of souls suddenly shuttled through the starry sky, opened a path, broke through time and space, and entered the Wanggu!

It appeared… in the sky!

It suddenly fell toward the Eminent Desolation that was at a critical moment!

Not only the Black Pagoda, but at the same time, a Giant Beast that exuded an incomparably terrifying aura, squirmed like a mountain, and exuded primitive hunger, as well as a huge Paper Figurine that seemed to be cut out of the Yellow Spring paper money, rapidly arrived from time and space.

The former suddenly headed toward the Eminent Desolation with indifference.

The latter licked its lips, and its body suddenly dispersed, turning into countless paper figurines that all pounced forward!

Three of the four God Venerables of the ninth star ring had come!

The reason why they had made all kinds of arrangements before was to plunder the Broken Face.

For this reason, they had been waiting carefully for a long time.

Now that they had encountered such an opportunity, how could they let it go?

Naturally, they seized this opportunity to plunder it!

However, it was obvious that not all the four God Venerables of the ninth star ring were like this…

Mother River did not come!

He seemed to be watching.

Therefore, in the next instant, the Black Pagoda, the Giant Beast, and the army of strange-looking Paper dolls that filled the sky tore through the void and pounced on Eminent Desolation!

While the Eminent Desolation and the Zi Qing Strange Realm were busy fighting each other, the three of them accurately landed around the broken face.

The Black Pagoda was like an inverted tombstone that was nailed into Eminent Desolation's forehead!

The body of the pagoda glowed and emitted a soul-freezing whimper. An invisible and greedy suction force suddenly erupted!

What he coveted was the majestic and ancient soul of the Eminent Desolation!

The Giant Beast was entrenched in the shadows behind them. It opened its huge mouth that seemed to be able to swallow the universe. Thick and smelly saliva dripped down like a waterfall. Every time it swallowed, it was accompanied by the sound of space being chewed.

He was crazily devouring the qi and blood of the Eminent Desolation that contained endless life!

The dense and silent paper effigies army was like white maggots that blotted out the sky and covered the entire surface of Eminent Desolation in an instant.

They waved their slender paper arms. Countless invisible paper threads that exuded a moldy and decaying aura reached out and parasitized the fate nodes of the Eminent Desolation!

They greedily pulled and sucked in the mysterious and unpredictable Godly Authority of Fate!

The three Supreme Gods did not hold back anymore. Their hypostasis was fully activated!

The cold silence of the Black Pagoda, the barbaric thirst of the giant beasts, and the strange theft of the paper people — three completely different but equally terrifying supreme Godly Authoritys spread out like a plague, and began their greedy and brutal plundering!

The timing of their arrival and attack was extremely ruthless and tricky. It was the moment when Eminent Desolation was in a difficult situation and its strength was severely consumed by its own battle!

This allowed them to obtain an unprecedented bountiful return for their plundering!

However… Eminent Desolation's terrifying aura of a half-step Living God and the strange power from the Strange Realm that could erode everything made this kind of plundering not come without a price.

While the three Supreme Gods were plundering, they were also suffering from terrible erosion. Their figures were continuously turning illusory!

The huge outline of the Giant Beast was distorting and fading at a speed visible to the naked eye as if it was being wiped away by an invisible hand.

The indestructible body of the Black Pagoda also became blurry like a reflection in the water that could completely dissipate at any time.

A considerable portion of the Paper dolls army that seemed to be the most fragile had strange pale flames burning at the edges. They instantly turned into flying ashes with sparks and silently drifted in the dead silence of the starry sky.

Witnessing this scene, the divine thoughts of the three Supreme Gods fluctuated violently. Through this short period of plundering and observation, they had preliminarily determined that Eminent Desolation seemed to be really… an arrow at the end of its flight.

This was not a meticulously arranged trap!

Therefore, in the next moment…

Boom!

The starry sky shook violently. The space-time barrier shattered inch by inch like fragile glass. The void was violently torn apart by three forces that were far more vast and terrifying than before!

Three supreme figures that condensed their own wills and exuded a destructive aura suddenly descended!

Their forms were still the Giant Beast, the Black Pagoda, and the Paper dolls.

However, at this moment, their light was far more dazzling than before. Their divine power was so strong that it made the Wanggu Continent wail and tremble. The vast starry sky was boiling under this pressure!

This time, it seemed to be their true bodies that descended!

Ignoring all obstacles, they came from the depths of the void and instantly pierced through all dimensions, accurately sinking into the projections of their clones that had descended earlier.

They merged instantly!

This caused the already terrifying aura to skyrocket like a volcanic eruption. The plundering of the dying Eminent Desolation suddenly intensified!

In the roar, the giant face of Eminent Desolation shook violently.

Dark cracks that were so deep that bones could be seen spread wildly on its surface like broken porcelain!

Its divine soul origin was being torn and devoured to a greater extent by the Black Pagoda.

The essence of its flesh and blood was being chewed and swallowed by the Giant Beast even more violently…

The entire face was withering, shriveling, and losing its luster at a speed visible to the naked eye. It exuded a strong aura of death and decay!

Behind it, the greed in the Giant Beast's scarlet eyes was even more intense as if it had found a supreme delicacy.

The plundering of the Paper dolls that filled the sky also intensified. The invisible threads of fate were entangled more and more tightly. The plundered Godly Authority of Fate merged into the Paper dolls, causing those pale paper dolls to begin to squirm strangely. Blurry facial features and skin texture appeared on the surface.

One could even vaguely see strands of threads of fate that were emitting an ominous aura and twisting like snakes growing and extending in their bodies!

They were transforming from "paper" to "living things"!

They seemed to have also noticed the huge risk that it would bring if this continued. Therefore, the cracks between the shadow and the flesh of the Eminent Desolation that were repelling each other rapidly grew larger.

They chose to temporarily separate.

However, at this moment, in the depths of the void, there was a low buzzing sound that could freeze one's bones!

A river that was flowing with sticky and filthy dark golden liquid crossed the starry sky without warning and descended on the battlefield!

It was the Mother River!

She had endured until now and finally confirmed that there was no danger. At this moment, she appeared without hesitation!

The filthy river water was like billions of greedy tentacles. With a sticky feeling that was enough to erode godhood, it instantly wrapped around the Eminent Desolation that was about to separate!

The momentum of separation came to an abrupt end!

Immediately after, the muddy and sticky river surface of the Mother River churned violently. A huge strange face that was made up of countless twisted and painful faces suddenly appeared!

This face opened up a huge mouth that seemed to be connected to an endless abyss and faced the tightly wrapped Eminent Desolation…

It swallowed fiercely!

A large amount of Divine Blood that was shining with a strange divine light and emitting a strong stench was suddenly forcefully extracted from the withered face of the Eminent Desolation and poured into the filthy river water of the Mother River like a waterfall.

After absorbing the Divine Blood, the waves of the Mother River instantly became more turbulent.

As for the Eminent Desolation that was already withered, under this fatal blow, it was as weak as a candle in the wind. The gray aura of death was so thick that it could not be dispersed!

Seeing that the Mother River had succeeded, the weakness of the Eminent Desolation could no longer be concealed. Inside the Black Pagoda, a cold, ancient, and emotionless Divine Will suddenly boiled!

Behind it, time and space were once again plowed open by an even more terrifying force!

A bronze ancient tower that was covered in bronze-green, with countless tiny, twisted shrines hanging on the tower as if they were wailing silently, slowly descended from the depths of the broken time and space!

This was the true body of the Black Pagoda!

The previous descent was all to test the waters!

At this moment, the moment its true body descended, the suction force that was directed at the soul suddenly increased by more than a hundred times or even a thousand times!

It was as if it was going to suck the souls of the entire starry sky dry!

As the Giant Beast witnessed this scene, its eyes shone fiercely. After waiting for a moment… it suddenly raised its ferocious head and let out a terrifying roar that was enough to shatter the stars!

Roar!

The void behind it completely collapsed. A monstrous beast head that was formed by countless squirming stars, broken planes, and indescribable dark matter appeared out of thin air!

The beast head was so big that it seemed to be able to swallow a galaxy in one gulp!

With an aura that could destroy everything, it opened its huge mouth and bit down hard on the Eminent Desolation!

The last paper doll was obviously the most cunning and cautious. Even when the other three Supreme Gods' true bodies had appeared, it still did not make a move.

Until… the three Supreme Gods' plundering reached the peak of madness. The withered Eminent Desolation had completely shown signs of being at the end of its road…

In the depths of the paper doll's countless empty eye sockets, two extremely pale and strange lights suddenly ignited!

One of the seemingly ordinary paper dolls tore at its chest without warning. A miniature paper doll that was surrounded by dizzying seven-colored evil light and had an exquisite shape that exuded an extremely ominous aura suddenly emerged from it!

As soon as the seven-colored paper doll appeared, the surrounding space silently decayed and disintegrated.

Then, without any hesitation, it turned into a seven-colored evil light that distorted light. It ignored all obstacles and carried a strange power that could steal fate and change the end …

It rushed toward the Eminent Desolation that was on the verge of collapse silently and fatally!

However, just as the evil light that the seven-colored paper doll turned into was about to touch the Eminent Desolation, the Black Pagoda's soul-sucking, the giant beast's body devouring, and the Mother River's binding reached the peak of madness!

The Eminent Desolation that was originally withered and on the verge of collapse suddenly opened its huge eyes that were tightly shut and seemed to be in eternal slumber!

One of its eyes was burning with endless karmic fire and was scarlet red like a lava abyss!

The other eye was an absolute void that could devour all light and even annihilate nothingness itself!

At the same time, a voice that was overlapping with countless echoes and was so cold that it could freeze the will of time and space suddenly exploded in the senses of all the Supreme Gods like the last wail of billions of dying stars!

"You are all finally here..."

The moment the voice sounded, something strange happened!

It was not a counterattack from the remnant of the Eminent Desolation, but Zi Qing, who had been fighting with the Eminent Desolation and corroding its flesh and blood!

It was as if he had been waiting for this moment!

When the wills of the four God Venerables fully appeared, they greedily plundered the essence of the Eminent Desolation and connected themselves to the battlefield and the remnants of the Eminent Desolation… Zi Qing completely released the Strange Realm!

As a result, the fog formed by the ominous aura that filled the Strange Realm suddenly expanded by hundreds of millions of times!

It was no longer illusory. Instead, it instantly became as viscous as rotten blood that had been around for hundreds of millions of years. It drowned the sky at a speed that exceeded the speed of thought!

It began to devour!

The head of the Giant Beast was the first to bear the brunt. The turbid fog instantly enveloped it, and its flesh and blood, which was made of stars and planes, immediately let out an ear-piercing sizzling sound.

It actually began to dissolve and collapse!

The stars that formed its shape dimmed and exploded one by one, spraying out a stinky slurry that was greedily absorbed by the fog!

It was the same for the Black Pagoda. The moment the fog touched the Wailing Altars, which were hung all over its body, the distorted faces instantly froze. Then, together with the bronze tower, they were covered in spots of filth that looked like mold.

The soul-sucking whimper of the Pagoda turned into an intermittent scream filled with fear!

At the base of the pagoda, the indestructible bronze began to melt!

As for the Mother River, it was also difficult to escape!

The strange faces formed by countless painful faces in the river let out silent and shrill howls. The river water boiled violently and was forcefully swallowed by the fog!

The strangest thing was the Paper Guy. All of its clones collapsed at this moment and scattered on the ground.

As for its seven-colored main body, it was flickering violently in the turbid fog, and its colors were rapidly disappearing!

The strong sense of danger made it retreat abruptly, trying to distort fate to escape. However, the invisible threads that connected the fate nodes of the Eminent Desolation had become fatal shackles at this moment!

The fog flowed up along the threads and crazily polluted its origin.

Its body twitched and curled up crazily in the air. Its colors continued to fade, and it became like a piece of waste paper soaked in dirty water!

"Nutrients… More… Nutrients!"

A deep voice, with the greedy thoughts of billions of insects rubbing against their shells at the same time, echoed in the consciousness of the four God Venerables that were rumbling in their minds!

The Plunderer instantly became prey!

Run!

The Giant Beast let out a roar filled with endless fear as it frantically tried to break free from the melting misfortune. Shattered stars fell from its body!

The Black Pagoda's humming shook the heavens, and the Pagoda's body erupted with an unprecedented deathly still light, trying to shake off the moldy filth that had adhered to it!

The Mother River churned, and the huge face in pain twisted and deformed. The dark golden river water rolled backward as if it had a life of its own, trying to cut off the connection with the fog!

The colorful Paper Guy was even more direct. It severed all the threads that were connected to Eminent Desolation's fate node and turned into a dim, broken shadow, flying desperately into space!

However, it was too late!

The face of Eminent Desolation, which had been passively enduring the attack, had long black hair that was as withered as a mountain range. At this moment, it danced wildly in the churning fog!

It grew and extended crazily, ignoring the distance between them and the four Supreme Gods!

Instant entanglement!

It could be seen that the Giant Beast's huge body was tightly bound and tightened. The tips of the hair were nailed into its flesh, and as it squirmed, there was a scalp-numbing sucking sound!

There was also the Black Pagoda, which was wrapped by the dense hair like a spider's web. It was wrapped around the tower's shrine, and the wailing faces were directly pierced by the hair, and the soul-sucking power was frantically absorbed by the hair!

There was also the Mother River. The filthy river water was now permeated, and the faces in pain in the river water were entangled by the hair, turning into pure Godhood and being sucked away!

As for the gray Paper Guy that was desperately trying to escape, it was also instantly entangled by the hair and violently pulled!

In an instant, the four Supreme Gods were all pulled into the fog!

Their figures were covered, and only indescribably mournful roars could be heard in the churning filthy fog. However, they were quickly covered by an even more hair-raising sound!

Crack… Creak… Gulp…

That was the crisp sound of God's bones being crushed!

That was the dull sound of God's body being torn apart!

That was the sound of God's Origin being crazily devoured!

This sound lasted for a moment in the fog.

Then, it gradually weakened, and finally … it returned to dead silence.

Only the fog itself was still in the shattered sky, as if it had a life of its own, silently and contentedly churning.

Xu Qing looked at all of this with a deep gaze.

He did not believe that those Supreme Gods had really fallen.

Supreme Gods were Venerable Gods, after all. Even if their true bodies were here, Xu Qing was certain that they must have their own backup plans!

"However, even if they have backup plans, they've paid an unprecedented price this time. Whether they can maintain their Venerable God status… is still unknown."

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes. His gaze moved away from the filthy fog in the sky, and looked at his palm.

There was a piece of paper there!

It was one of the many paper dolls that had collapsed earlier.

At the same time, in the vast sea of stars in the seventh star ring, an inconspicuous yellow planet suddenly trembled.

The surface of the planet instantly shattered, and with a boom, it collapsed, revealing … an egg at the core of the planet!

This egg was also shattering.

Finally, a small beast crawled out of it.

The moment it appeared, the aura of a peak God Lord surged on its body. Then, it suddenly turned its head and looked in the direction of the ninth star ring.

"Sure enough, there's a trick, but… what I really want is not your flesh and blood, but the memory of your god umbilical cord!"

"So… the god umbilical cord is like this…"

At the same time, in the thirteenth star ring, a god was rising into the sky.

As a God Altar, he had already reached the peak of his Divine Star, and all of this was because of a treasure he had obtained in his early years.

It was a bronze Black Pagoda!

This treasure allowed him to grow rapidly and become invincible.

Now, he, who had reached the peak, was about to leave his Divine Star and go to a higher Divine Realm.

He was confident that he could reach the level of a True God with the help of the mysterious Black Pagoda.

However… just as his figure was about to leave his Divine Star, the Black Pagoda in his body suddenly shook, and then suddenly sucked outward.

Without waiting for the God Altar to react, its body trembled, and it was instantly sucked clean. Not a single bit of it remained.

This process was so fast that it only took a moment.

He didn't even realize it.

Only the Black Pagoda was floating in the air, and then it suddenly sank and fell on the ground of this Divine Star.

The next moment, the star roared, and all the gods and lives on it withered in an instant and turned into ashes.

Everything surged into the Black Pagoda.

Finally, the tower let out a low divine sound.

"The god umbilical cord…"

The same thing happened in the other two mysterious places.

One was the hiding place of the Paper Guy, located in a special time and space, in a painting scroll, recuperating and trying to recover as soon as possible.

The other was even more mysterious. It was the backup plan of the Mother River. She turned into words and hid in the world she was in.

That was the word 'water'.

In terms of hiding, the backup plan of the Mother River was the most special.

Unfortunately… in the Wanggu, there was an existence that didn't want the Mother River to hide.

So, in the fog above Peerless City, the void rippled, and in this time and space, the Wishing Mask brought by Xu Qing suddenly appeared!

His purpose was to murder the Mother River!

At this moment, seeing that the Mother River was escaping, the mask's expression suddenly became distorted, revealing a hint of madness.

The moment he appeared, he released his aura without reservation and began to burn!

He used the mysterious connection between himself and the Mother River to guide the Eminent Desolation!

Therefore, in the next instant, as his body burned, the space where he was was opened with a loud bang, and an image was revealed.

In the scene, it was the hiding place of the Mother River!

In the next moment, a strand of hair suddenly hung down from the fog in the sky and went straight into the scene, instantly drilling into it!

Accompanied by the echo of a mournful voice, the hair returned.

In that world, the word 'water' was erased.

The moment it was erased, in the world where the Mother River was hidden, the sky was turbulent. A golden mask sealed in the mud of the Mother River seemed to have broken the seal that had existed since ancient times and finally gained freedom.

"Mother River, you used the cause of making a wish to seal me, took away my Godly Authority, and my Godhood… Today… karma has come to an end. That's the price of making a wish."

.......

Wanggu, in the time and space where Peerless City was located.

In the sky, the fog was still churning, and the face of the Eminent Desolation could not be seen.

But time… had begun to dissipate.

Xu Qing knew that the karma between him and Zi Qing had actually come to an end at this time.

As for whether Zi Qing could succeed, everything was unknown.

Xu Qing no longer paid attention to it.

He lowered his head and looked at the time and space that was dissipating and gradually returning to the flow…

The blood rain began to fall.

The time and space that belonged to the past seemed to be accelerating the story in this shattering.

Xu Qing saw his young self awakening in the blood rain.

He saw himself struggling to get up and leave in a daze.

He saw his seven-year-old self in the wilderness, being bullied and robbed.

He saw his helpless childhood.

In the end, he saw his young self pulling out an iron skewer from the ruins.

With a weak body, he pointed the tip of the iron skewer at his own neck.

His gaze was numb, and with a sense of farewell, he closed his eyes.

He also saw his childhood self, who was about to choose the moment to leave…

A little girl in ragged clothes walked over and handed him a candied fruit.

The little girl's eyes were bright in this filthy world.

The candied fruit also evoked waves in the depths of his young self's memory.

Xu Qing felt bitter.

He would never forget this scene.

He saw his young self, looking at the candied fruit, slowly letting go of the iron skewer, and finally sitting on the ground, and finally… crying.

This was his childhood.

Xu Qing sighed softly. As time and space dissipated, as this time was about to shatter, he looked at everything in the picture…

He saw himself becoming strong.

He also saw a scene that touched his heart even now.

In the picture, the little girl who gave him the candied fruit, lying in a pool of blood.

And his young self was piercing the iron skewer into the throat of a villain.

He slowly pulled it out, letting the blood scatter on his body.

After a long time, the young Xu Qing slowly walked to the little girl's body and stood there silently for a long time.

He slowly bent down and gently covered the little girl's open eyes.

"I've avenged you."

Time and space, with this sentence, shattered.

The time where Peerless City was, like a broken mirror, turned into countless fragments, cut through time and space, and returned reality!

As a result, the fog of history faded away from the universe.

The sky returned to the present world.

The earth showed the Heaven-Devouring Region.

And Xu Qing was still standing in front of the imperial palace of the Violet and Cyan Kingdom.

But Zi Qing in the imperial palace was no longer there.

Xu Qing raised his head silently.

He looked at the sky.

There… was no longer fog.

The Eminent Desolation was still hanging high.

But it was not a broken face.

It was the complete face of the Eminent Desolation.

Half of it was a shadow, half of it was flesh and blood.

Looking carefully, it seemed to be… the face of the Zi Qing.

"There is one more thing that needs to be done…"

Xu Qing withdrew his gaze, spoke softly, and looked at his palm.

He brought the shredded piece of paper back to the present world.

Looking at the shredded piece of paper in his palm, Xu Qing's eyes were filled with killing intent. He clenched his fist, and suddenly the Constitution rose…

Somewhere in the starry sky.

"De Luozi, I'm coming to avenge the Swordsage Grand Emperor!"

"No matter how many avatars you have, no matter how many space-time and planes you hide in, you… can't escape!"

Xu Qing took a step toward the starry sky!
