Light Fortress

Bai Xiu had already shot many arrows.

But he could continue... He didn’t care about the so-called cost.

"Extinguishing Candle is indeed incredibly powerful. As long as it hits, it can surely eradicate the target... But there are countless versions of me in this world, each one truly existing. If you want to draw the second bow, then perhaps consider if you want to draw the third, fourth one?"

Deep Sea smiled as it spoke, its body swayed slightly, and a series of phantoms appeared around it.

It swayed gently again.

The myriad illusions instantly converged, merging into one.

"..."

Bai Xiu understood the reason why [Achilles’ Heel] reminded him not to draw the bow.

In [Achilles’ Heel]’s view, expending effort to shoot down such a bizarre Transcendent existence like Deep Sea was meaningless.

No one had ever used Extinguishing Candle to kill [Sacrificial] creatures, known for their vast numbers.

And the current spirit projections of Deep Sea outnumbered even [Sacrificial].

"By the way... there’s no need for you two to use your fire source. I’ve never truly lived, so I won’t be killed by any power."

Deep Sea cast its gaze towards Meng Xizhou, the traveller.

"That recent Divine War... was truly spectacular."

It said gently, "Having gone through such a battle, I presume all of you are ’exhausted arrows,’ why not conserve some energy and have a good rest?"

Meng Xizhou furrowed her beautiful brows.

She noticed the anomaly in the Sky Peak Divine Domain at that moment...

The peak of the Source Tower in the real world had been shattered by Gu Changzhi.

Large chunks of stone were falling from the dome.

The pillars of this Divine Domain had collapsed, yet many objects hadn’t fallen... as if immersed in seawater, they floated chaotically, making the entire Sky Peak Divine Domain appear to have lost gravity.

"It’s the ’Dead Sea.’

Deep Sea noticed Meng Xizhou’s furrowed brow and, being sharper than anyone, chose not to hide, speaking openly.

"All along, the Source Tower has been Deep Sea’s core box, as well as the root of the Dead Sea Zone. This Sky Peak Divine Domain is not only Mr. Qinglong’s domain but also my Spiritual Domain... If someday the Sky Peak Divine Domain suffers heavy damage, then my ’Dead Sea’ will take over this territory."

This was quite reasonable.

All Transcendents in this world knew that Deep Sea hid its "main system" at the highest point of the Source Tower.

And the most precious thing within this system is the "Dead Sea Zone."

"Cough cough cough..."

At this moment, the position where Divine Throne collapsed, rolling dust was driven away by someone.

An extremely bleak figure appeared in everyone’s sight; at this moment, Qinglong was covered in blood, his hands were completely broken, and over ninety percent of his bones were destroyed in the recent clash.

He lost to Gu Changzhi.

His [Infinite] lost to Gu Changzhi’s [Infinite].

Seemingly identical punches contained fundamentally different Origin Powers... Only after defeat did Qinglong understand why he was not Gu Changzhi’s match.

Because Gu Changzhi’s [Infinite] also contained Time Origin!

That’s why Gu Changzhi could easily penetrate his [Infinite]—

As long as Gu Changzhi activated Time Origin, his [Infinite] would never defend in time... Gu Changzhi could instantly appear before him and punch anywhere he wished!

Since birth, Qinglong had never been this weakened.

What a conceited existence he was?

If not for Gu Changzhi...

Then even if the other Divine Seats at the highest rank all surged together, he would never find himself in such a dire situation!

Yet it was Gu Changzhi, whose Divine Domain had now partially collapsed.

Should at such a moment Bai Xiu spare no cost to unleash Extinguishing Candle arrows.

Then, he truly would die.

"..."

Qinglong struggled to stand, but this time he utterly failed, his Divine Power drained dry, exhausted of every last drop, sacrificed to survive Gu Changzhi’s counterattacks, abandoning everything.

Thus, he could only maintain his sitting posture, leaning against the fractured column.

Thankfully, he still had the strength to speak, and issue commands.

Thus, Qinglong’s voice was hoarse as he spoke.

"Deep Sea..."

"I grant you the temporary authority to mobilize the entire Dead Sea, kill them..."

"Kill them all."

...
