Seizing the BOSS Template at the Start

Chapter 833: Chapter 415: No Path of Death (Part 2)

This is the tragedy of a Weak World; a subordinate will always be just a subordinate.

From the moment the Earth God, because he coveted everything of the Earth Mother, stopped earnestly developing this World’s Rules, the upper limit of this World was doomed to halt here.

There was no response. Baiyi silently watched the battle between God and King.

Siel’s current form was incomparably Powerful, surpassing even all the enemies Baiyi had encountered so far.

If He had used this form to fight from the very beginning, then Baiyi could only flee this World; there would have been no second choice.

Pu Sheng was the same.

But now that Baiyi had been given time to develop, the situation was different. This form had at least increased Siel’s combat strength by fifty percent, and could be called the true pinnacle of Weak Divine Power, even capable of matching some Middle Divine Power.

Yet Baiyi could feel the essence of this form.

That Divine Level shadow was Burning.

It was just like how Official Letter could briefly gain the Power to contend with a Demigod by Burning his life.

A God’s Burning would be even more terrifying.

Of course, not every existence could Burn itself. For example, Baiyi—no matter how desperate the situation, he could not Burn himself. Unless he used a Potion as an aid, he had no relevant Skills; though, this did not include that Specialty capable of bringing a World to extinction.

And once this Burning Skill was obtained and activated, fighting across tiers would no longer be a problem.

Right now Siel was only Burning that shadow. If He were to Burn His own Root Source....

It seemed Siel could not be forced into a dead end.

He could be defeated, but the price of His death would be far too great.

Besides, Baiyi had no kill reward yet; it was not worth it.

After pondering for a moment, Baiyi still chose not to interfere. All abilities that Burn one’s self to raise battle strength shared a common flaw: they could not be stopped.

At worst, he could leave this World first, and think of something else afterward.

Boom~

The battle grew ever more intense. Countless Devouring Flames fell, yet they could not reach Baiyi.

He stood calmly within the sea of fire, watching the battlefield. In the current battle, Middle-tier Taboo could hardly intervene directly, but they would always remain a kind of threat.

As the battle raged, the Insect Emperor gradually fell into disadvantage.

But as the number of strikes landing on the Insect Emperor increased, more and more of the Insect Race died.

The Insect Emperor’s Power stacked as if it had no upper limit, slowly leveling out his disadvantage, and then gradually surpassing the God.

Baiyi sensed something and the Extremely Evil Blade appeared in his hand.

It seemed to understand what Baiyi was thinking and instantly pierced through the ever-weakening space.

When it reappeared, the wisp of Abyss aura on it revealed what had just happened.

Pu Shengzai Seed did not want to stop even for a moment; it actually wanted to dig out his Rules again.

But at this temporal stage, the Rules were clearly visible, and his little tricks could not escape a God’s eyes.

And with the Specialty [Root of Law], Baiyi was no different from a God in this regard.

The battle continued without pause. The tear in the firmament grew bigger and bigger; some strange beings in the spatial turbulence began turning their gaze toward the Underworld, because the pheromones of the Underworld could not distinguish whether the one calling for help was good or evil.

Yet after those existences sensed the auras of the Insect Emperor and Siel, they very tactfully turned away and vanished into the surging tides of space, with no intention of responding to this World.

The battle dragged on until late at night. Of the Insect Race Baiyi had stored, less than ten billion remained.

Yet by this time, the Insect Emperor had already started fighting one against seven.

He did not know why, but he felt himself growing ever more irritable.

He attributed this emotional change to his inability to crush the God.

Thus, the instant he once again shattered Siel’s defenses, he shot skyward.

”This should end, God. Go back to your Hell and stay there, or... stay here forever.”

Buzz~

All the remaining Insect Race roared to the heavens. Half of the Underworld’s southern region had already been destroyed; everywhere the eye could see was a sea of fire.

And all of the Insect Race in this World, at this moment, turned into motes of dust within that sea of fire, vanishing into the flames.

Boom!

A kind of metamorphosis was achieved; the World began to collapse, and in front of the Insect Emperor, the Rules seemed so insignificant.

Baiyi and Pu Sheng had, by accident, created an inconceivable thing.

This had already reached the level of a Giant Statue.

One of the stronger Giant Statues at that.

Siel’s expression completely changed, and He decisively began to send a distress signal to Hell.

The next moment, the Insect Emperor was already upon Him, his vast might pressing down on Siel with crushing force.

Flames surged into the sky, Rules manifested.

The Insect Emperor stared at Siel, eyes full of killing intent. He had already abandoned his near-Undying state in exchange for his most Powerful form.

Even though this God was also Powerful, it ended here.

The Power that could collapse a World was enough to be a Godslayer!

Boom!

A massive hand, infused with the Rule of Flame and the will of the Insect Race, clawed savagely down. The flames could annihilate flesh, the will could erase the Soul. This strike was a killing blow.

Buzz~

A fatal crisis surged into His heart. Siel’s heart sank, yet His eyes remained cold.

Millions of years had passed; such a span did not allow Him any hint of fear or panic. Even death could not terrify a God who had been tempered by such long ages.

The white wings behind Him suddenly began to lose their color.

In that instant, the entire sky resounded with prayers. It sounded like the most devout supplications of countless mortals to God, and also like countless people’s most beautiful hopes for themselves.

Before the will of all living beings, time itself seemed to slow to a crawl.

Siel’s own Rules manifested.

If it were anyone else, the current God might not have been a match for this Insect Emperor.

But how arrogant must a newly ascended Divine Level combatant be to think he could compete in Rules with an old God?

Siel’s Rule of Corruption suddenly appeared; His incomparably deep personal Rules slowed the collapse of the World.

The prayers converged in an instant. Siel raised His Longsword and slashed upward.

Clang~

Siel’s most Powerful sword strike to date froze the entire World in place.

A bad premonition suddenly rose in the Insect Emperor’s heart. He had intended to unleash his ultimate move and crush the God head-on.

But now, something felt distinctly off.

”Sigh~”

A soft sigh came from the void, and in an instant, the six Taboo nearby became alert.

Within an extremely short span of time, an immense Barrier had already enveloped this region.

Buzz~

The next moment, an incomparably Powerful Soul Energy, bearing an incredibly Frenzy aura, crashed violently into the Shield.

Boom!

The Shield of the most heavily injured Taboo shattered in an instant, and the weakened Soul Power was swept into the God and King’s clash.

At the same time, the sigh drew near, heading straight for the God.

And at that very moment, the razor-sharp Longsword collided with the Insect Emperor’s massive palm in midair.

Countless Rules abruptly went haywire.

The Rules on the Insect Emperor’s body also went chaotic.

He had let the Power rush to his head; arrogance truly deserved its place as the foremost of the seven deadly sins.

His aura was falling, while the aura of the entire World was recovering; that excess which had surpassed the limit was severed in this brief clash.

Boom!

The arriving Soul of Technique instantly slammed into the Insect Emperor, who was being held in place by the Rules and unable to move.

His body was sent flying.

Clang~

A sword strike bearing the weight of countless Faiths followed through, and with no Rules blocking it, seemed poised to instantly kill the Insect Emperor.

But that sigh formed layer upon layer of Barriers; the Faith on the Longsword was instantly polluted, and its Speed slowed by countless times, leaving Illusory afterimages across the sky.

”I can only help you this once.” ×2

Two voices—one cold, one helpless—arrived almost simultaneously from north and south, stunning the Insect Emperor, who had just escaped disaster.

He could sense that there were two forces helping him, yet he could not perceive any specifics. It was as though some of the purposes of these two voices overlapped.

But this did not matter to him.

He looked at Siel, whose face was no longer cold, and the killing intent in his eyes surged even higher.

The God’s wings had turned pitch-black once more, and this also meant that the God’s Power would drop back to what it had been at the start.

In other words...

The God’s one and only chance to turn the tables was gone.

Watching that sword light.

Barro did not even think; he vanished from where he stood, choosing to evade this Rule-weakened slash.

Then he circled around the Rule slash and appeared before the God.

Boom!

A one-sided battle erupted instantly.

In the distance, Baiyi’s eyes held a trace of contemplation. Pu Sheng actually did not intend for the Insect Emperor to be taken out....

Baiyi looked toward the direction of Hell’s Rift.... There could be no dead end here.
