King of Gods

The Destruction God and Death God were once more facing the Heaven Lord, but they both sensed that the Heaven Lord’s aura was powerful, his injuries not as serious as they imagined. His injuries were even lighter than those of the two God Eye Deities.

The two God Eye Deities had never underestimated the Heaven Lord, and now, they simultaneously decided to work together against him.

“Death Beam!”

“Destruction Divine Ray!”

The two God Eye Deities attacked with incredible speed.

The strength of two God Eye Deities descended upon the region. The Destruction God’s eyes erupted with dazzling golden divine light that destroyed all it touched, even space itself. On the other side, the Death God’s eyes emitted a pitch-black ray of light that caused everything it touched to dim and decay.

Two rays of energy, one black and one gold, shot toward the Heaven Lord. Being in the face of destructive attacks from two of the most offensively powerful God Eye Deities would make any other God not dare to be careless, but at this time, the Heaven Lord was extremely composed and did nothing at all.

“What’s going on?” The Destruction God’s face darkened as he began to think.

Based on the intelligence reports, the Heaven Lord should have only been a little stronger than a typical God King. When facing two God Eye Deities, he should have been doomed with zero chance of survival. Thus, the Heaven Lord might have already given upon resisting, knowing that he was powerless to resist. But for some reason, the Destruction God felt very uneasy.

Boom! Bang!

Gold and black energy completely engulfed the Heaven Lord’s body. A shockwave of forbidden energy swept across the world, causing the fabric of space itself to tremble.

After a long while, the dust began to slowly settle. The two God Eyes pierced through all obstructions to stare into the center of the explosion.

“Impossible!” Death and Destruction both blurted out in shock.

The Heaven Lord’s body in the center of the explosion was gradually recovering. This trait, this ability… wasn’t it that of a Samsara Immortal Body?

Could it be…? Did the Samsara God already kill the Heaven Lord and turn him into one of her Samsara Immortal Bodies?

But the two God Eye Deities soon thought of another possibility: the Samsara God was the one who was killed by the Heaven Lord, and the Heaven Lord had seized the abilities of the Samsara God Eye!

“Impossible! Was the God Eye that died Samsara?” The Destruction God didn’t dare to believe this.

The Heaven Lord’s fate had clearly been sealed, and he was clearly at the end of the line. How did he manage to kill a God Eye and rise again?

Bzzzz! Booom!

A golden screen of light erupted from the Destruction God’s eyes and began to sweep forward. All objects caught up in this screen were obliterated into nothingness.

However, the effects of this screen of Destruction were extremely weak against the Heaven Lord. The Heaven Lord possessed one of the strongest physical bodies – the Ancient Race’s Ancient God-Devil Body – which possessed a supreme defense against any kind of energy.

Despite that, the Destruction God’s Destruction energy was still effective against the Ancient God-Devil Body, but the Heaven Lord also possessed the abilities of the Samsara Immortal Body now. The two combined made it so that the Heaven Lord seemed completely unaffected.

“Haha, Samsara was the first. Which of you two will be the second?” The Heaven Lord loudly laughed.

The Samsara God Eye’s abilities combined with the Ancient God-Devil Body created an invincible strength that exceeded common sense! Even the Destruction God, who could obliterate all, could not completely destroy it.

“You killed the Samsara God?” The Death God’s face chilled.

“Haha, did you really think that I was heavily injured? That my cultivation had fallen?” The Heaven Lord couldn’t help but laugh.

“There was some trick in those two explosions?” The Death God suddenly thought of something, his eyes rippling.

Based on the situation then, it really did seem like the Heaven Lord had been forced into detonating the Ancestral Artifact and then detonating his Divine Kingdom, but now that he thought about it, the Heaven Lord could probably have predicted that not even the explosion of an Ancestral Artifact would be able to kill six God Eyes. If he had used the explosion of the Ancestral Artifact together with the explosion of the Divine Kingdom, he might have been able to kill one or two God Eyes while severely injuring the rest, but he had chosen to separate them.

“Heh, in order to trick you six God Eyes, I wasted an Ancestral Artifact, countless years of resources accumulated by the Heaven Defying Faction, and a powerful substitute infused with the Ancient Race bloodline, but it was all worth it!” The Heaven Lord faintly smiled.

Perhaps one God Eye could not compare to the total value of one Ancestral Artifact, the Heaven Defying Faction Divine Kingdom, and the Ancient Race bloodline substitute, but for the Heaven Lord, the God Eye Origin was far more valuable than all of that!

Bzzz!

The eye at the center of the Heaven Lord’s forehead opened, the eight pupils within beginning to turn.

At the same time, eight eyes manifested behind the Heaven Lord. These eight phantom eyes were somewhat closer than before, and the hazy outline of another eye had appeared in the center.

When Death and Destruction saw this hazy eye, their God Eyes felt a sense of both intimacy and fear. That Heavenly Dao God Eye exuded an ancient ancestral energy that was the source of all things and transcended them all.

The entire world once more trembled, groveling at the Heaven Lord’s feet.

“This is… the energy of the Ancestral Eye?” The two God Eye Deities instantly wondered.

“Die!” The Heaven Lord shot toward the Destruction God.

With his current abilities, he had no need to fear the two God Eye Deities. As long as he killed one first and stole their God Eye Origin, the other would be even easier to deal with.

When the time came, nobody would be able to stop him.

Thwish!

The Heaven Lord hurtled forward with an unstoppable pressure. The Destruction God’s body trembled, his Destruction God Eye crazily pulsing.

“The Art of Great Destruction!” The Destruction God clenched his teeth and began to form a spell.

Buzz! Bzzz!

The Destruction God Eye madly surged with energy as powerful Destruction Origin energy was harnessed. A nexus of destruction began to form between the Destruction God’s eyes, a golden sun of blinding radiance.

“Go!” the Destruction God called out, sending forth this nexus of destruction.

“Reversal!” The Heaven Lord used his Heavenly Dao God Eye to change the rules of the world. The golden sun changed directions and flew toward the Destruction God.

“That move is no good against me.” The Destruction God focused.

He was extremely familiar with this move of the Heaven Lord’s, so he had already prepared himself against it. His Destruction God Eye was controlling the golden sun this entire time and had it instantly turn around.

“Oh? It seems that the God Eye Deities are no fools.” The Heaven Lord chuckled.

The God Eye Deities instantly frowned. The Death God immediately attacked, releasing a black deathly mist, black threads of energy shooting out of it to coil around the Heaven Lord.

Only by working together could they deal with the Heaven Lord.

“Ancient Divine Fist!” The Heaven Lord activated his Ancient Race bloodline and fired a massive gold and silver fist. At the same time, the Heavenly Dao God Eye turned, strengthening the fist with various Laws.

Boom! Bang!

The Ancient Divine Fist struck the Destruction God’s Art of Great Destruction, the impact producing an immense storm of energy. A massive boom resounded through the world.

Whoosh!

The Destruction God’s body flew out of the destructive storm, rather worse for wear.

“Destruction God, your strength doesn’t match your title.” The Heaven Lord loudly laughed.

The Destruction God gnashed his teeth in anger. Even though he was the Destruction God, in that direct clash with the Heaven Lord just now, he wasn’t able to get any advantage and was actually slightly weaker.

On the other side, the Death God’s expression became apprehensive. In terms of pure offensive power, the Destruction God was number one among the Eight Great God Eyes, and none of them dared to directly fight against him, but the Heaven Lord had done it.

“Destruction, let’s work together!” The Death God turned into a black streak of light and arrived at the Destruction God’s side.

When Death and Destruction worked together, they were the strongest offensive pair in all of the Ancient Desolate Realm of Gods. Not even the trio of the Divine Punishment, Spacetime, and Life God Eyes dared to underestimate them.

“Death Decay!” The Death God focused his eyes on the Heaven Lord’s body, and God-level Death energy descended upon it. The Heaven Lord’s Ancient God-Devil Body somewhat dimmed.

Compared to Destruction energy, the Death Law, which set everything on the path toward oblivion, appeared somewhat more effective against the Ancient God-Devil Body. And the Heaven Lord’s strength was also affected by the Death Law and began to gradually wane.

Death was not merely a way to kill someone; it could also weaken and restrain.

“Okay! You hold him down,” the Destruction God coldly said. Thwish!

The Destruction God turned his Destruction God Eyes, once more firing off two beams of Destruction energy.

The restrained and weakened Heaven Lord could no longer so boldly take on this attack. Although the Heaven Lord had feigned how severe they were, he was indeed still injured and not at full capacity.

“Don’t get carried away!” Slightly incensed, the Heaven Lord bellowed.

A vast and supreme energy erupted from the Heavenly Dao God Eye, destroying all laws and principles in the vicinity of tens of thousands of li.

Boom! Bang!

The Death God’s weakening was removed, and the Destruction God was caught off guard, blood trickling from the corner of his lips.

“Retreat!” The two God Eye Deities made up their minds. The Heaven Lord’s power was too domineering. Even working together, they were still no match for him.

Now was not the time to lose their heads in emotion. Even as Gods, they still needed to yield and retreat.

“Die!” The Heaven Lord chased.

He could not let such an excellent opportunity go. If he let them escape and recover, the two God Eye Deities would be much warier and much more difficult to deal with.

Many experts had gathered in the northern region of the Ancient Desolate Realm of Gods, and news of this battle quickly spread. The Heaven Lord’s injuries had been feigned. The Samsara God Eye had already been killed while the Death God Eye and Destruction God Eye had been defeated by the Heaven Lord and were being chased down.

The Divine Punishment, Spacetime, and Life Gods were searching for the Heaven Lord in the northern region of the Ancient Desolate Realm of Gods.

“We can’t let the Heaven Lord succeed!”

“Spacetime, you’re the fastest! Hurry and go!”

The Divine Punishment and Life Gods had heavy hearts. If the Heaven Lord killed the two God Eye Deities, no one would be able to stop him.

For a moment, the entire Ancient Desolate Realm of Gods was shaking as all of its top experts gathered in the north.
