The Death Godhead was a divine spark created by the Emperor of Fengdu, not something obtained by someone else upon becoming a god. Rather than a divine spark, it is more like a divine artifact, a key.
To prevent the method of breaking the seal from being lost, the Emperor of Fengdu had already solidified the method within the Godhood of Death. In other words, whoever obtains the Godhood of Death can use it to break the seal.
"Are these your last words?" Fang Xiu asked calmly.
Yanluo's face grew paler and paler, cold sweat pouring down his face. He hadn't expected Fang Xiu to be so stubborn and determined to kill him. Perhaps it was because he had lost all hope that he could escape the situation that his heart gradually calmed down, his heart grew colder and colder, and he had regained some of the courage he had when he betrayed his master and ancestors.
"Fang Xiu! Do you really intend to wipe them all out?"
Now it was Fang Xiu's turn to be puzzled. He didn't understand if it was because he looked too kind. Even after leading a group of demon gods to invade the Nine Provinces and suppressing three true gods in succession, how could Yama still feel that there was room for reconciliation?
"What? Haven't I made it obvious enough?"
The fear in Yama's eyes turned into madness: "You forced me to do this!"
"All beings of the Nine Provinces, heed my command! I am Yama, the Lord of the Nine Provinces! The traitor Fang Xiu, the human race, has led the Demon Gods of the Other Shore to invade the Nine Provinces. We, the gods of the Nine Provinces, fought to the death but were no match for him. Now the Nine Provinces are at a critical moment of life and death. All living beings of the Nine Provinces, heed my command! Let us unite... to slay the demons!!"
The voice of Yama transformed into a terrifying heavenly sound that instantly spread throughout the Nine Provinces, resounding in the ears of billions of living beings. Countless people had red eyes and drew their long swords.
There are many courageous people in the Nine Provinces. They do not know the truth of the matter. They only know that Fang Xiu is leading the demon gods to invade the Nine Provinces and destroy their homeland. All they can do is fight to the death!
When the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact. Without the protection of Kyushu, everyone will die. Rather than die in misery, it's better to wreak havoc and turn the world upside down!
"kill!"
"Kill the traitor Fang Xiu!"
"Slay all the demons and gods, and protect the Nine Provinces!"
Shouts of killing echoed throughout the land, the roars of countless lives, their killing intent nearly threatening to overturn the entire heavens.
"Hahaha..." Yama laughed maniacally, pointing at Fang Xiu like a madman: "Do you see this? This is the Nine Provinces! And I... am the Lord of the Nine Provinces! They worship me!"
As he spoke, boundless power of faith surged toward Yama, causing his already formidable aura to surge once more.
But that wasn't all. Amidst the vast land of Kyushu, specks of spiritual light began to emanate, and those specks of light frantically converged toward Yama.
And those places that had emitted spiritual light began to decay at a visible rate; the earth dried up, mountains and rivers gradually weathered away, and flowers, trees, and shrubs began to wither...
"Shuo Xie! You've gone mad! You're draining the foundation of the Nine Provinces, turning it into a wasteland!" Xingjun roared in disbelief. He hadn't expected Yama to be so insane, sacrificing the Nine Provinces for temporary power.
The madness in Yanluo's eyes intensified, and he sneered, "Opening the seal is death, not opening it is also death. I have protected the Nine Provinces for many years, and now it is the Nine Provinces' turn to protect me. After I die, who cares about the Nine Provinces!"
You bunch of useless trash! They've already decided to kill you. Are you just going to sit here and wait to die? Why don't you join me in resisting? If we lose, the whole of Kyushu will be buried with us; if we win, we can go to the other side!
I'd rather lose myself and become a demon god than die like this!
Amidst Yama's maniacal laughter, the remaining gods of the Nine Provinces, including Xingjun, began to waver. Even ants try to survive, let alone gods.
The higher one's cultivation level, the more afraid they are of death, because they cherish everything that has been hard-won.
If you have nothing, then dying is just dying, and living is just suffering. But if you have everything in the world, you feel like you're losing out if you live even a second less.
Perhaps... becoming a demon god wouldn't be so bad?
In fact, they never imagined that what Yama was doing now was even more demonic than that of a demon god.
A moment later, the gods, including the Star Lord, decided to go all the way and silently stand beside Yama, even joining him in devouring the essence of the Nine Provinces.
At this moment, countless cultivators surged in like a tide, their eyes bloodshot and their killing intent soaring, charging towards Fang Xiu.
In an instant, Fang Xiu found himself on the opposite side of the Nine Provinces, an enemy of the entire world.
Faced with such a grim situation, the only happy person present was probably Jiang Mengyue.
Because the current scene perfectly matches her fantasy.
Looking around, they saw enemies everywhere. The two seemed to be standing on the opposite side of the world. They were isolated by the world, and they... only had each other.
Jiang Mengyue gazed intently at Fang Xiu's profile, and said passionately, "Fang Lang, for you, I am willing to fight the world for..."
"Brother Xiu! We're here!" Yang Ming's loud shout interrupted Jiang Mengyue's words, ruining the atmosphere she had painstakingly built up.
Such a huge commotion naturally disturbed Yang Ming and the others who were in seclusion during the time acceleration. They broke out of their seclusion one after another. Even though they didn't understand what was going on, and even though Fang Xiu seemed to be on the side of evil, they still stood behind Fang Xiu without hesitation, ready to help him defend against the enemies from all sides.
It's worth mentioning that during this period of seclusion, two of them successfully broke through to the demigod level: Yang Ming and Fang Yao.
One is blessed with divine destiny and maxed-out luck; the other is a descendant of Nuwa and possesses unparalleled spiritual foundation.
Jiang Mengyue glared fiercely at Yang Ming and the other uninvited guests. If the circumstances allowed, she would have already taken action.
At this moment, Yama's maniacal laughter rang out. He pointed at Fang Xiu and said, "Didn't you want to save the ancient immortals and gods? Didn't you want to kill me? Before you kill me, kill the billions of living beings in the Nine Provinces first, hahaha... When the ancient immortals and gods return, all that will be left for them here is an empty shell."
I want to see how the ancient immortals and gods, upon their return, will use the ruined Nine Provinces to cleanse the other shore.
Faced with Yama's threat, Fang Xiu shook his head in disappointment: "I thought you could bring me some surprises, but I didn't expect this?"
He had genuinely believed that Yama, as the ruler of the Nine Provinces, must have some hidden trump cards, such as concealing his cultivation level or secretly cultivating some kind of heaven-defying supernatural power over the years, which would make him even more valuable for suppression. However, Yama had actually been enjoying life all these years.
This so-called trump card is nothing more than a way to fool the masses and to absorb the essence of the Nine Provinces using the Zhou Tian Star Array.
Yama was furious: "Stop spouting nonsense! I'd like to see how you...!"
Having seen Yama's trump card, Fang Xiu lost all interest and didn't bother to listen to anything. He simply snapped his fingers casually.
Snap!
The crisp snap of the fingers seemed to have triggered some mysterious switch.
Time... stands still at this moment!
The world, which had been filled with shouts of battle, fell silent instantly, a deathly stillness.
