Chapter 844 - 689: Obliterating Emperor Tianwu (Part 2)
Meanwhile, the ground beneath them trembled slightly.
"Has he moved?"
Prince Zhenyuan quickly learned the answer.
At this moment, Qin An was likely manipulating that terrifying entity to slowly move, and the direction of movement was naturally towards the position of Emperor Tianwu.
Qin An said nothing, closing his eyes.
His vision seemed to pierce through endless space, locking onto the area outside the Sea of Hope.
"It’s time to end this."
Qin An spoke calmly, then controlled the terrifying entity to head towards Emperor Tianwu’s location.
...
Outside, Emperor Tianwu sat on a rock, glaring with hatred at the invisible barrier.
He was still waiting, waiting for Qin An to come out from within.
As soon as they dared to come out, Emperor Tianwu would decisively take action, capturing Qin An and Prince Zhenyuan, along with others.
Emperor Tianwu didn’t even intend to let Qin An say a single unnecessary word.
After all, for the Savior, every word spoken could alter the situation.
Of course, he didn’t care whether he had to wait or not.
In fact, he knew the Heavenly Demon was about to descend. If Qin An never emerged, it would make no difference once the Heavenly Demon arrived.
The moment the Heavenly Demon appeared, the first priority would still be to slay Qin An.
Therefore, even though Emperor Tianwu was filled with hatred towards Qin An, he still waited patiently, even hoping to witness Qin An’s untimely death later on.
But at this moment, sudden changes occurred.
The previously tranquil invisible barrier suddenly shook violently, and then the invisible barrier vanished without a trace.
Emperor Tianwu watched this scene unfold before him, eyes filled with confusion: "Why did this barrier disappear? This shouldn’t happen."
In his mind, this barrier should have persisted, yet it suddenly disappeared now.
Emperor Tianwu felt something was definitely amiss, and his tension escalated as he cautiously looked forward.
Immediately after, he sensed an overwhelming notion surging from all directions.
This notion, as if intertwined with countless individuals’ thoughts, could unsettle anyone’s mind just by listening for a moment.
The ground started shaking violently, resulting in cracks appearing on the surface.
Emperor Tianwu hurriedly took to the air, looking down at the ground from above.
The soil on the ground began collapsing rapidly, revealing a bizarre entity composed of countless corpses.
"What is this thing? Why does it feel so terrifying?"
Emperor Tianwu couldn’t discern the realm of this terrifying entity, but the crisis emanating from it made him realize it was absolutely not a simple character.
Next, Emperor Tianwu saw a gigantic figure emerge from beneath the ground.
This figure was immensely tall, reaching up to the heavens, and unless one craned their neck to the fullest extent, the full appearance of this figure couldn’t be seen.
What was this?
The bizarre entity woven from corpses made him feel a chill to the bone.
At this moment, Emperor Tianwu sensed a familiar aura from this bizarre entity composed of countless corpses.
"Are you Qin An?" Emperor Tianwu exclaimed, "How did you turn into this ghostly form?"
From within the terrifying entity, Qin An’s voice resonated.
"Whatever form I have become is inconsequential, but now, the important thing is, you might not survive."
Numerous terrifying notions were born within the entity, forming a resilient barrier from the obsessions of the Universal Body that blocked the surrounding space completely.
The previous time Emperor Tianwu managed to escape was because he fled promptly enough.
But now, before Emperor Tianwu could escape, Qin An had sealed everything around, completely severing Emperor Tianwu’s chance of escaping.
Emperor Tianwu laughed hysterically: "Good, good, good, you are worthy of being called the Savior. Every time you’re driven to the brink, you find a way to survive. Today, since it has come to this moment, it is your life or mine!"
Without any unnecessary words, he then leaped high, drawing the long sword from his waist, and the sword’s light surged towards the Universal Body.
The terrifying sword light, even if faced by someone with Manifestation Realm Perfection, would instantly turn them into flying ashes.
But Qin An was not flustered, instead he controlled the Universal Body to fiercely grasp at Emperor Tianwu.
"Boom!"
A thunderous explosion sounded as the sword light cascaded down on the Universal Body, merely akin to a stone falling into the sea, raising a slight splash before going silent.
On the contrary, the hand of the Universal Body came with endless obsession, wanting to crush Emperor Tianwu.
Emperor Tianwu’s eyes revealed a hint of panic.
He sensed the terrifying aura, knowing if not careful, he could be shattered into pieces.
"Secret Technique!"
Without hesitation, Emperor Tianwu detonated all his Void Essence.
This was his last trump card, the strongest Secret Technique taught to him by his father after the previous dynasty fell.
It could detonate all Void Essence, elevating oneself to the limit, but once used, death was inevitable.
Now, Emperor Tianwu didn’t think much about it.
Because he knew he could not escape, he might as well fight to the death.
If this could alleviate the crisis, even slay Qin An, even if he died, the Heavenly Demon might still revive him.
Amidst the dreadful explosion, Emperor Tianwu’s sword was forced to resist the gigantic hand.
Under the terrifying explosion of Void Essence, he felt as if he had reached his limit.
At this moment, Qin An’s voice gently emerged.
"It’s pointless, this is the force that seals the Heavenly Demon, even the Heavenly Demon would be blocked by this power, how can you resist?"
With his words falling, the gigantic hand continued to press down, as if not hindered in the slightest.
As the long sword was pressed by the gigantic hand, cracks appeared instantly.
Accompanied by a crisp sound, the long sword shattered into fragments and scattered.
The gigantic hand firmly grasped Emperor Tianwu, filling him with countless obsessions that drove him nearly insane.
He seemed to see all the images from his childhood to adulthood, and also witnessed his insane urge for revenge.
The obsession seemed to burst through his body, crushing him into ashes.
"It’s all over." Qin An’s voice calmly transmitted.
Emperor Tianwu, with bloodshot eyes, shouted: "It’s useless, even if I die, so what?"
"You will ultimately be destroyed, I will watch from below, watching you, watching you be obliterated by the Heavenly Demon. When that time comes, you’ll be confronted by an enraged Heavenly Demon!"
Qin An shook his head slightly: "I rather hope for his arrival, it would be enlightening to witness the essence of this world."
As the words landed, Qin An manipulated the Universal Body to crush Emperor Tianwu into ashes.
Inside the Universal Body, Prince Zhenyuan observed everything, his eyes revealing complex emotions.
He hadn’t expected that the head of the previous dynasty’s lingering threat that had troubled the Daqian Kingdom for years was easily slaughtered by Qin An.
It’s as if a problem that years of effort couldn’t solve was addressed effortlessly by Qin An, leaving him no choice but to feel conflicted.
But soon, Prince Zhenyuan set aside his complex thoughts, turned to Qin An, and spoke.
"Next, it’s time to seal the Heavenly Demon, right?"
Qin An nodded slightly, then slowly raised his hand.
Immediately, a terrifying obsession coalesced in his palm.
Externally, the Universal Body he controlled raised both palms, suddenly striking towards the sky.
Endless obsession transformed into an invisible bridge linking the entire world.
Soon after, the bridge dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye, transforming into an invisible barrier that wrapped the sky.
At this moment, Prince Zhenyuan sensed changes occurring ahead.
The Universal Body transformed into the previous young form, and suddenly bowed deeply towards Qin An, then looked at the corpses, speaking softly.
His tone carried no regret or fear, but rather exuded a sense of freedom.
"Master, I shall leave first. It is time I leave. From now on, it will be up to Master Savior."
