"They've run out of tricks. Kill them... hmm?"
Jiang Yan suddenly seemed to sense something and looked towards the outside of the divine kingdom.
The tranquil void was suddenly torn apart from both sides, and a gigantic hand, carrying endless demonic energy, broke through the air.
It seemed to transcend time and space, causing all laws to retreat and all things to be unstoppable.
"Your Majesty the Demon Emperor!"
The Abyss Supremes who had escaped from the "Dimensional Sanctuary" were overjoyed.
The group of gods instinctively trembled and involuntarily took several steps back.
"The Demon Emperor of the Abyss!"
Jiang Yan murmured softly, his eyes revealing an unprecedented fighting spirit.
The first time they met was in the abyss.
At that time, a single avatar of a main god was enough to suppress him and his four supreme subordinates, leaving them powerless to fight back.
Ultimately, they were only able to barely win thanks to good fortune and the power of the Zerg Overmind.
The second encounter took place in a distant, ancient time.
After being instantly killed several times, he only managed to defeat the opponent's second form by sacrificing the gods to activate "Good and Evil Retribution".
This is the third time.
"I'd like to see just how big the gap is between us now."
Jiang Yan took a step out from the summit of the sacred mountain, and two enormous beams of light shot into the sky behind him.
One side shone with golden light, and his eyes revealed compassion for all living beings, as if he were the embodiment of all that is good in the world.
Just a few wisps of light were enough to instantly restore the wounded and exhausted warriors to their former state.
One side was deathly still, its cold demeanor like the end of all things.
Where death spreads, everything withers and decays.
Holy Light True Form! Undead True Form!
Two illusory figures, each 99.99 million feet tall, rose up simultaneously with Jiang Yan.
His vast divine power surged, and even the supreme being of the abyss within the divine realm was forced to a standstill by him alone.
"How could a supreme being be this powerful!"
"My God, this is definitely the strength of someone above the highest level!"
"Is he planning to attack us before His Majesty the Demon Emperor arrives?!"
The Abyss Supremes exchanged glances and barely managed to move closer together to join forces in the fight.
However, Jiang Yan didn't give them a second glance.
With a thought, the gates of the divine kingdom opened, and he stepped forward, pointing the "Catastrophe" in his hand at the world-destroying palm.
Annihilation!
The skull at the top of the staff suddenly glowed with a crimson eerie fire, and two extreme death forces, like blood-red lightning bolts, swept across the void.
There was no earth-shattering event as expected.
After the crimson lightning struck, the unstoppable, sky-covering giant hand seemed to melt away like ice and snow, rapidly disintegrating.
Finally, when it was still hundreds of kilometers away from Jiang Yan, it completely turned into ashes, and under the influence of inertia, it swept past the edge of the divine kingdom and scattered in the void.
"As expected, it didn't disappoint me."
Jiang Yan glanced at the "natural disaster" in his hand, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
After replenishing its origin, "Instant Death" gains the advanced effect "Annihilation". As long as enough Death Origin is consumed, it can forcibly obliterate all existence, including but not limited to living beings, spells, and defenses.
Of course, if one wanted to use this to annihilate the "Abyss Demon Emperor," even turning all living beings of the entire era into the source of death would not be enough.
"Like a mantis trying to stop a chariot..."
Amidst the dry, hoarse voice, a towering black figure, also 99.99 million feet tall, tore through space and emerged.
The opponent actually descended directly in its second form!
It waved its empty sleeve, and the severed arm instantly returned to normal.
Then, with a wave of his hand, the immense abyssal demonic energy behind him instantly condensed into a massive arc of light that stretched for hundreds of millions of feet.
"Annihilation!"
"Good timing!"
Jiang Yan's gaze sharpened.
He had seen this move before when he faced the "Abyss Demon Emperor" for the second time.
However, now that he's using it at his peak, its power is even greater than before. Even from a great distance, he could feel a stinging pain all over his body.
The dazzling arc of light seemed to cut through heaven and earth; wherever the radiance spread, everything was divided in two.
Jiang Yan slammed his staff down, the power of his domain merging beneath his feet, and six rotating voids rose behind him, unleashing the endless power of the Law of Reincarnation.
A mournful war song suddenly resounded in the void, and a long river manifesting countless phantoms descended from the sky.
Good and evil will be rewarded accordingly!
In the sealed time and space, it was with this move that he killed his opponent!
"In the name of the Lord of Reincarnation, I grant you permission to take your revenge. Go!"
Jiang Yan pointed his finger, and the mighty River of Revenge surged forth.
"Let's die together..."
"You killed me, you destroyed my home, how can you still be alive..."
"Revenge! Revenge!"
“...”
The obsessions of those who had directly or indirectly perished at the hands of the "Abyss Demon Emperor" throughout countless eras surged forth madly.
They burned with all their might, unleashing their most prized moves in the attack.
Even when their bodies are severed by the cold arc of light, they still rush forward relentlessly, tearing at each other with their teeth, scratching with their claws, and using their bodies to wear down their energy.
Thud! Thud!
The invisible sounds of collisions were incessant, as if the arc of light that seemed to annihilate everything was being visibly slowed down by the relentless, suicidal force of obsession.
"Without the gods' obsession with revenge, even if all the beings from these thousands of eras were combined, their power would only be similar to what it was back then, while the Demon Emperor is clearly stronger."
Jiang Yan's expression remained unchanged.
He remembered that this move had quickly shattered the "Annihilation" arc of light back then, but now it was a stalemate.
"That same trick again... I remember telling you, you wouldn't have another chance..."
Amidst the surrounding demonic energy, the dry voice rang out once more.
The sound wasn't loud, but it exploded in Jiang Yan's ears like a thunderclap.
"You...you actually have memories of that time!"
A look of shock appeared in Jiang Yan's eyes. He had always thought that even if that illusion was real, it was just an isolated island in time and space, unable to affect the present time and space.
But judging from what the other party said, it seems to be completely different from what he thought.
That is a true history that continues to this day!
Wait... so if that's the case...
Jiang Yan suddenly thought of something.
When he entered that sealed-off time and space, he entered in his true form, with no changes to his appearance, temperament, or power.
At the time, neither Anna, Loshia, nor the other Holy Light warriors were surprised when they saw him.
But they probably didn't know him back then!
Even if one sensed the power of a god, they should have expressed doubt, so why...?
Eliminate all impossibilities...
Have I always been the Holy Lord of Light himself?!
An unbelievable thought flashed through Jiang Yan's mind.
But... Anna didn't know him when they first met in the various realms. Anna even said that the previous Holy Lord perished together with the Abyss powerhouse and then resurrected them... Wait a minute!
A chronicle of history?!
"Otherwise, why do you think your memories don't match up with other people's after you came back?"
“Loves also possesses supreme power, and these overt arrangements cannot be hidden from her.”
Jiang Yan suddenly recalled his conversation with the third emperor after completing the advancement mission.
Could it be that she infiltrated that time and space, activated the Book of History, and stole the spoils of war?!
Jiang Yan was suddenly startled.
That...
Aww!
At this moment, a chilling aura rose up, interrupting Jiang Yan's thoughts.
He subconsciously looked up.
However, the 99.99 million-foot-tall Demon Emperor's true form, which was originally surrounded by demonic energy, had disappeared. In its place was a humanoid creature with gray fur, and a terrifying pressure spread out.
It let out a long howl, and its fur gleamed with a black sheen. Despite being washed by the river of revenge formed by "good and evil being rewarded," it remained unharmed.
Instead, those obsessions, upon impacting the surface, vanished without a trace.
