In an unknown, shattered world, hundreds of mottled bones drift aimlessly in the turbulent void.
They look ancient, each one covered in cracks and scars, as if they might shatter at any moment.
I don't know how much time passed.
One of them suddenly twitched almost imperceptibly.
It moved again.
Then it arrogantly stood up again, even spinning 360 degrees.
Once they found no danger, hundreds of bones scattered in different places stood up simultaneously and quickly gathered in the same spot.
Soon, a complete skeleton was pieced together.
A flash of eerie fire appeared in its eyes, and the vast laws of the dead swept down, instantly giving the surface of its bones a new look, and a deep black cloak quietly draped over its shoulders.
A powerful pressure instantly filled the surroundings, even stopping the surging void currents.
"Strange, my ability only deactivates when I sense safety, so why did I wake up now? This entire era hasn't even passed yet... Did I only sleep for less than a million years this time...?"
The skull's eyes flickered slightly, and its right bony fingers made a loose grip, revealing a chilling scythe, which it then lightly slashed at the void.
Sizzle!
In an instant, a crack several kilometers long was torn open.
Huh? I didn't use any force?
The skeleton was taken aback and looked at the scythe in its hand with some surprise.
"How did the laws of the dead become so powerful? Wait... how come so many lives have died throughout the myriad realms..."
It pondered for a moment, then cautiously extended its divine sense to scan the void.
But gradually, its expression became strange, and its movements became increasingly bold, as it recklessly swept across various worlds.
"So that's how it is... Themycros, Helenzollr, the Wind God... all these pantheons have perished... Hmm? The aura of the Holy Light pantheon is gone too, how is that possible... Wait a minute!"
The skull's eyes suddenly changed: "It's the aura of the new emperor! Damn it, it's those disgusting abyssal creatures again. They don't even have a single supreme being, yet they dare to besiege the emperor. Do they think the Netherworld is without anyone?"
Its eyes turned cold, it changed direction and swung its scythe, cutting a path, and stepped in without hesitation.
......
Starry Sky Battlefield.
At this moment, after months of fierce fighting, they have run out of ammunition and food.
All 36 angel legions were wiped out.
All 108 paladin legions were wiped out.
All 360 Light Legions were wiped out.
Of the 821 mixed legions, only a dozen or so remained, having been sent to support the other planes.
Seven supreme beings from the two pantheons, twelve seraphim, over one hundred heroic spirits, and over four hundred true gods perished.
Meanwhile, the Abyss also suffered the loss of thirteen supreme beings, over nine hundred Abyss Lords, and countless demons in the desperate counterattack of the two pantheons.
Now only eleven Abyss Lords and less than a billion Demon God Legions remain on the battlefield.
With the five major passages destroyed, these were the Abyss's last remaining strength among the realms.
However, now that all the pantheons have fallen, if no one stops them, even this power alone would be enough to destroy all areas of the realms.
"We have to drag them here no matter what."
Jiang Yan stepped out of the divine kingdom, and holy light and the realm of the dead unfolded, tightly binding all these abyssal beings within.
These monsters raged and crashed against the surrounding space, and the violent abyssal magic flowed back into Jiang Yan through the domain, causing his divine power to fluctuate continuously.
Especially those eleven Abyss Domain Lords, who were able to survive to the end on the battlefield, were among the most troublesome of all the Domain Lords.
Jiang Yan was familiar with "Thousand-Life Beast Demon" and "Void Thought", both of which were prominently featured.
Their strength was almost comparable to that of a top-tier main god, and their various bizarre and powerful attacks made Jiang Yan suffer greatly.
"Damn it, I was too impulsive before and fed all of my reincarnation to the Overlord. As a result, this guy can't finish absorbing it and can't get out in a while. On the contrary, I suffered a great loss of vitality because of my self-destruction divine technique."
Jiang Yan smiled bitterly to himself, barely managing to withstand their attacks thanks to the two Dominator-level divine artifacts and the Dragon God Armor.
Although he could hide in the divine realm, protected by the Immortal Wall, these monsters who had not reached the supreme level would find it difficult to break through.
But in doing so, these monsters would bypass him and rush into all the worlds, destroying those already riddled with holes.
At that time, this cycle will still be considered a failure.
He didn't want to go through it all again, even if it was an illusion, he didn't want to see his familiar comrades sacrifice themselves before his eyes once more.
Bang!
Another combined attack descended, the icy abyssal demonic energy frantically eroding everything, and the brilliance of both domains dimmed considerably in an instant.
Even though Jiang Yan now possesses three divine positions, he is still only at the level of a main god. Severely injured, he faced eleven top-level abyss lords and nearly a billion superior/super-level demon gods at the same time. If they hadn't also been severely injured, they would not have been able to hold on until now.
"Block them!"
He looked at the abyssal monsters that were about to break through their limits, and his eyes simultaneously burst forth with a dazzling light.
A series of divine spells erupted, instantly annihilating millions of demon gods.
But they completely ignored it and focused all their energy on attacking the power of the domain.
Boom boom boom!
Finally, due to the deaths of a large number of Holy Light believers, the power of the laws weakened, and the Holy Light Domain was the first to give way, with golden light scattering across the ground and losing its restraint on the abyss monsters.
"Finally, we made it out..."
"Eat up the world..."
They searched for the remaining planes of existence, their eyes gleaming with greed.
"Damn it, stay here!"
The light in Jiang Yan's left eye faded, while a deep deathly aura surged in his right eye as he fully activated his undead domain, attempting to trap them once more.
"Your opponent is us."
One by one, the Abyss Lords soared into the air, roaring as they charged forward.
The immense power of the abyss surged forth like a vast ocean, forcing Jiang Yan to interrupt his spellcasting and focus all his energy on dealing with it.
Meanwhile, the higher-ranking demons seized the opportunity to lock onto various planes and flew outwards.
The moment they stepped out of this star field.
Suddenly, the row of demons at the very front seemed to have twisted their ankles and fell straight down, passing through the atmosphere and crashing onto an abandoned planet.
Bang!
A huge cloud of dust rose up, leaving a crater thousands of meters deep, and then all was silenced.
A powerful high-ranking demon god actually fell to its death!
This seemed to be the beginning of a signal. The demon army in the void, as if by prior agreement, either plummeted to their deaths like the previous one, or were tripped by their own tentacles, crashing into the claws of their comrades and being disemboweled...
In just a short time, more than a third of the nearly one billion demon army had been killed or wounded, and the number was still increasing.
They panicked and roared, straining their bodies to muster all their strength, but to no avail.
"This is..."
The eleven domain lords who were fighting in the distance and Jiang Yan subconsciously stopped and looked over.
This familiar style... a bizarre way of dying...
"It's that old bastard!"
A Lord of the Abyss blurted out.
puff!
As soon as he finished speaking, the domain lord's body seemed to be swept by an invisible blade, instantly splitting into dozens of pieces that scattered all over the ground.
"You rude thing."
A hoarse voice came from the horizon.
A skeleton draped in a black cloak, with a chilling scythe floating beside it, tore through space and emerged.
A strange fire ignited in his eyes, and he gracefully bowed to Jiang Yan:
"New Emperor, it's a pleasure to meet you. You may call me... the Grim Reaper."
