What kind of gate was it?
It stood silently in the center of Black Mist. It had been inconspicuous, but now streams of space-time torrents were exploding from it.
A chaos aura that surpassed that of many Outer Gods suddenly filled the area.
“Although it contains space-time, it’s not the Space-Time Dao Fruit! Are you the existence that produced Black Mist?”
With a solemn expression, Fang Yuan attacked. “Universe Obliteration!”
The brilliantly shining saber beam carried the power of two Dao Fruits and the enhancement from the Creator Dao Fruit, and its power was infinitely close to three Dao Fruits!
Not only was the strike astonishing, but it had the power to cut and destroy everything, and even the three Outer Gods did not dare to take it head-on and scattered hurriedly.
The Blade of Universe Obliteration instantly struck the small black gate.
A sound that was indescribable yet carried with it the sense of the universe’s ultimate destruction shook the universe.
“Obscure Gate!?”
Only at this moment did Fang Yuan finally come to know this powerful existence.
Obscure Gate!
It was a great existence that was born in the Great Cosmological Abyss. It had existed ever since this universe appeared and had experienced four eras of its births and deaths. Black Mist, Helix Key, and a host of other Outer Gods were born from it.
According to legend, any living being could attain eternity if they entered the gate.
What had appeared here was not the main body of Obscure Gate but only a clone.
Even so, it absolutely had the power to seal an Outer God!
When the saber beam touched the Obscure Gate clone, Fang Yuan immediately felt a torrent of space-time washing over him.
“Space-Time Undying. I am undying!”
He stood in the river of time and endured the flow of time and the pressure of space, yet his body remained undamaged.
He suddenly felt dizzy.
Fang Yuan frowned, discovering that his palm was shrinking, and his skin was becoming fairer and more delicate.
In the void of the universe behind him, a series of images suddenly emerged. They were scenes of him when he was young and living with Master Heartless in the lower realms.
A young boy in Daoist robes with a bamboo container on his back was picking herbs on a mountain.
“Kill!”
A black saber appeared out of nowhere. Although the faint lightning around it made it shrink continuously, it pierced resolutely toward the boy.
It was going against the flow of time and trying to kill him when he was a child!
The ability of this gate was indeed extremely strange. It actually fused the power of time and karma to travel back in time and kill the child Fang Yuan. Due to karma, even if Fang Yuan did not perish immediately, he would still sustain heavy injuries.
“Karma?” Fang Yuan frowned as he watched the saber kill the boy in the image.
At the same time, his body shook, a terrifying wound appeared on his chest, and his aura weakened.
“Kill! Kill! Kill!”
Three black beams of light appeared from the small black gate, and it instantly shattered.
Behind Fang Yuan, another three scenes of his childhood appeared, and then the black saber killed them.
“What a strange ability… It actually starts killing someone from their beginning. No matter how strong someone is, they would have a childhood. However, I have mastered the Connate Space-Time Undying Great Dao!”
Fang Yuan wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth. “Even if you kill me in my past, as long as my body is still intact, there are infinite possibilities for the future. This is the true meaning of undying!”
As soon as this thought formed, his wounds instantly healed, and his aura recovered quickly.
“True Space-Time Undying! So I have to kill my past? Thank you!”
Suddenly, he comprehended something.
A supreme existence should not have any weaknesses, and that naturally included the weaknesses in childhood.
As long as the main body was present, even if all past selves perished, the present self would still exist. This single point of eternity created countless possibilities!
“Thank you… Obscure Door. If not for you, my comprehension wouldn’t have progressed so fast!”
Fang Yuan howled, and saber light poured out like mercury spreading across the floor, completely eliminating the fragments of the Obscure Gate clone.
After the small black gate disappeared, no more response came.
Perhaps Obscure Gate only gave Black Mist one such clone, or perhaps the loss just now was tremendous for it, and it required time to recover.
Besides, if it could arbitrarily obliterate a Dao Fruit existence’s childhood, that would be too outrageous…
Fang Yuan heaved a sigh of relief.
He had to admit that Black Mist’s trump card was quite something, and it had consumed a great deal of his energy and vitality.
The Lord of War, the Lord of the Deep Sea, and Black Mist, who had all been expelled outside the battlefield, gathered again. All kinds of cruel intentions seeped out from them.
“It’s just me, who has lost a great deal of vitality, and the Creator Dao Fruit. It’s indeed somewhat troublesome…”
Fang Yuan could not help sighing as a black eye appeared on his palm.
“However… did you think that that was all the cards I had?”
His right hand loosened, and the black Eyeball of Destruction fell into the deep sea, into a trench.
Buzz Buzz!
The celestial bodies in the sky changed as many planets shifted, forming an extremely intricate array.
A gap opened in the array, automatically welcoming the entrance of the Eyeball of Destruction.
Ow Ow!
A roar full of rage and fear came from below the sea. It was very difficult to imagine exactly what kind of creature could convey so many complex emotions with a single roar.
It was the cry of the Master Living Above the Lonely Star, Omar.
“Abandoning half a Dao Fruit and fusing it with the Creator Space had directly created a Dao Ancestor… What will happen to the Eyeball of Destruction, which already has Dao Fruit power, after it devours an Outer God?”
Fang Yuan had used the astral magic to seal Omar here primarily for research.
Over the years, in addition to using it as an extra-large battery to power the Creator Space at the beginning, he had studied it in conjunction with the Eyeball of Destruction.
Now, his research finally bore fruit.
According to Fang Yuan’s idea, he would cultivate a real war machine by extracting the Great Destruction Intent from the Eyeball of Destruction and using an Outer God as a flesh and blood sacrifice.
And now, no matter how much the Eyeball of Destruction absorbed and consumed from Omar, this sealed god was powerless to resist.
All of Planet Stael seemed to be trembling.
Suddenly, a ray of light appeared from the ocean and split apart the sea.
Almost all the indigenous beings felt quivering in their souls, and most of them immediately fainted, collapsing onto the ground.
The universe felt this, and the energy currents that had yet to dissipate completely appeared once again, transforming into celebratory fireworks.
As heaven and earth shook, a dark-green demonic body slowly rose into space.
It had three heads, six arms, and stood as tall as a giant. Each face had a different expression, and each arm was wielding a strange magic artifact.
“Born to destroy. Once you use your full strength, you can destroy the universe… You are the Great Destruction God!! Grasping the Great Destruction Dao Fruit!”
Fang Yuan and the Creator flew up and landed on the Great Destruction God’s head.
Ow Ow!
The war machine went into action at once. Each carrying the power of a Dao Fruit, all six arms struck fiercely at the three Outer Gods.
Bang Bang!
The arms smashed into the Lord of War and the Lord of the Deep Sea and sent them flying. As seawater and weapons flew, traces of their bodies broke up and continuously landed in space to form new sources of contamination for the land below.
As for Black Mist, the shockwave of the raging face’s roar hit it, causing it to disintegrate continuously and unexpectedly show signs of completely disappearing.
“What a Great Destruction God. Its body itself is a weapon of war. If the Creator and I give our full support, it can at least display the power of five Dao Fruits!”
Fang Yuan’s eyes glowed upon seeing what had transpired. “Obscure Gate has experienced four births and deaths of this universe. It probably has strength at roughly five Dao Fruits and is likely the strongest existence in this universe. With the Great Destruction God at my side, I can do anything I wish in this universe…”
In addition, with the Great Destruction God to rely on, he would at least have some confidence after entering the Huaxia Universe.
Fang Yuan was extremely exhilarated. He looked up and howled as he watched the three Outer Gods fleeing in panic.
“Creator, go and maintain the Creator Space!”
“Great Destruction God, you protect me!”
These two newly-born Dao Ancestors were akin to Fang Yuan’s incarnations, and he truly had perfect command over them.
With his order, the Creator instantly descended into Planet Stael and transformed into the Creator Space, once again allowing the chosen ones to enter.
The Great Destruction God shrank and submerged into Fang Yuan’s body. Ferocious spiked black armor appeared before disappearing.
Outside the battlefield, many probing spiritual wills left, and some even intentionally expressed good intentions.
After all, Fang Yuan had demonstrated unrivaled strength. He was absolutely among the top few Outer Gods in the universe.
With such strength, naturally no one would cause him any trouble if he only wished to protect himself.
Even if he expanded his forces slightly, it was nothing much.
At least, these three Outer Gods today would no longer dare to fight against him.
…
“Is the disaster… over?”
On Planet Stael, many chosen ones looked at the slowly-closing atmosphere and the stabilized planet, all feeling lucky to be alive.
Immediately, cheers broke out across the entire planet.
Ordinary people, chosen ones, and other intelligent life forms were all celebrating their survival.
Having the planet still safe and sound after a battle of that level was extremely lucky.
However, the next moment, the faces of the chosen ones changed.
“Ding! Main mission over! Side mission starts!
Side Mission: Remnants!
Mission Explanation: Although Planet Stael has luckily survived the battle between the Outer Gods, many sources of contamination have spread across all parts of the world. They are the triggers for chaos, treasures that will lull men into madness. Eliminate them!”
…
“It was actually the Outer Gods? And there are remnants?”
Seeing this information, many chosen ones went into a frenzy, and following the guidelines of the Creator’s mission, they started to clean up the remnants of the Outer Gods.
When it came to the Outer Gods, even a single piece of dandruff could stir up a disaster if it landed on a planet.
What awaited the chosen ones was definitely not smooth sailing.
However, if they did not clear them up now, the remnants would surely become more troublesome if allowed to grow. As such, it was imperative to clear them right away.
