"grim Reaper!"
Seeing that familiar figure, Jiang Yan suddenly remembered. No wonder he always felt something was missing before. It turned out that this guy was pretending to be dead again!
However, due to a series of unforeseen circumstances, he missed the previous decisive battle with the Abyss. It seems that even the Abyss had forgotten about him and had not arranged any powerful warriors to target him.
Right now, he is the only remaining supreme being in all realms. Doesn't that make him invincible?
Thinking of this, Jiang Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and finally a smile appeared on his face. He nodded and said, "You've come at the right time. These monsters are yours to handle."
"Rest assured, Your Majesty."
Death nodded slightly, gripped his scythe in his right hand, and a million-foot-tall phantom rose from behind him, slashing down fiercely at the remaining Abyss Lords.
"Harvest!"
A chilling beam of light pierced the void, and the shadow of death descended.
"Mission failed, retreat immediately!"
The surviving Abyss Lord turned and ran without hesitation.
According to their intelligence, although Death is not known for his combat prowess, he is currently invincible as there are no other supreme beings!
Only the supreme can defeat the supreme!
Although they are not afraid of death, they are not foolish enough to needlessly offer themselves up for slaughter.
"It seems you need more favor..."
A flicker of flame appeared in Death's eyes.
In an instant, the "Thousand-Life Beast Demon," who was the fastest to escape, was tripped by his own left foot, stumbled, and was cut in two by the passing scythe.
The aura of the law of death seeps into the soul through the wound, and even resurrection cannot dispel it.
"ah...!"
The agony of being reborn and dying again and again caused it to let out a violent scream.
Soon, the "Thousand-Life Beast Demon," which had already lost more than 900 lives in the previous battle, also lost its last life and completely dissipated into the void.
The other Abyss Lords were no different; they had no chance of escaping from the Grim Reaper and all of them ran into the scythe in ridiculous ways, only to be obliterated by the laws of death.
On a battlefield devoid of other supreme beings, the Grim Reaper, at his peak and amplified by the laws of the undead, is terrifyingly powerful.
"I have fulfilled my mission, Your Majesty."
Death casually tossed his scythe, letting it repeatedly annihilate those domain lords and demon gods with tenacious vitality, before landing in front of Jiang Yan and giving him a slight bow.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Jiang Yan looked at the demon god legion falling like wheat being harvested, and the abyss lords who perished one by one under the law of death, and felt a slight sense of emotion.
When those abyssal monsters broke through the domain's seal, he thought this cycle of reincarnation was going to fail again. He even considered activating the reincarnation characteristic that gods cannot look directly at to forcibly take these monsters into his divine kingdom, and then self-destruct his divine kingdom to see whether he would die first or the trial would end first.
However, the timely appearance of Death eliminated one concern, so it should be considered a pass now...
His gaze shifted to the domain lords being hunted by the Grim Reaper's scythe; at this moment, only "Void Thought" was still clinging to life.
This is the highest-ranking domain lord in the abyss, capable of parasitizing the evil thoughts of all living beings, and even more difficult to kill than the Supreme One.
Unfortunately, the world and all living beings around it have been completely destroyed, and now it has trapped itself, with no chance to escape. Under the corrosive influence of the laws of death, its breath is growing weaker and weaker.
"See you in the future."
Looking at the "Void Thought" that was about to be slain, Jiang Yan turned to bid farewell to Death.
"Huh? What..."
Death was stunned, and before it could react, the entire space-time suddenly froze completely.
A familiar, vast power descended.
"Lord Jiang Yan, congratulations on passing the illusionary trial in just thirteen cycles and winning this war."
"Victory...?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan couldn't help but smile wryly.
Nearly all of the thousands of Holy Light Legions were wiped out, and all the high-ranking officials of the two pantheons, except for the Grim Reaper, perished. Can this really be considered a victory...?
“That’s right, Your Excellency. You don’t need to blame yourself; you’ve done more than enough in this illusion. Besides, your power in the real world is far greater than it is now.”
Hearing this, Jiang Yan felt slightly better.
Indeed, in the real world, Losia's abilities have undergone a complete evolution, making her four or five times stronger than in the illusion. If the real Losia were to enter, she alone would be able to deal with five or six Abyss Supremes.
Moreover, compared to the illusion where only two pantheons were fighting the abyss, in the real world, most pantheons have now submitted to him, so he no longer has to fight alone.
The only concern is that without the sacrifices of many pantheons, the power of "good and evil being rewarded" is probably insufficient to deal with the "Abyss Demon Emperor".
However, once this mission is over, he will soon be able to advance to the Supreme level, and he might even be able to achieve the Supreme level before the centennial deadline. He possesses three divine positions at the same time, and once he breaks through, he will definitely be able to fight against the "Abyss Demon Emperor".
Just as he was pondering this, the voices of all realms rang out once more:
"Furthermore, Lord Jiang Yan, you have perfectly completed the test and will obtain all the power left behind by the Holy Lord of Light. From this day forward, you will truly become the strongest being among all the myriad realms."
As soon as the words fell, the whole world suddenly became dazzling with golden light, and holy light seeped out from every inch of space and gathered together, gradually condensing into a heart-shaped ball of light that shone with a soft glow.
Jiang Yan was surprised. This appearance was exactly the same as the Angel Heart when he obtained the Angel's inheritance, only the power was much more vast, even far exceeding the Supreme level, and not far from the "Abyss Demon Emperor".
That is... the supreme power!
He was just thinking about how to break through, and now it's been delivered right to his doorstep!
"This contains pure holy light and divine power. After fusion, it is enough to allow your divine power to directly reach the realm above the supreme level, which is the so-called half-step above the supreme level."
"Above the half-step to the supreme realm?"
"Yes, Your Excellency. As long as your understanding of the laws catches up, you will be able to break through to the true supreme realm without any obstacles. Now, please merge with it here as soon as possible. This power cannot be brought back to the original world, otherwise it may be detected by the Lord of the Abyss."
The various realms explained.
"The previous Holy Lord actually left behind something like this... How should I integrate it?"
Jiang Yan asked in disbelief, as he wasn't even a Supreme Being yet.
"You possess the divine inheritance of the Holy Lord of Light. Simply reach out and touch it, and it will automatically merge with you."
"I see..."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan shifted his gaze to the sphere of light in front of him, which contained immense power, and slowly extended his right hand.
A familiar power flowed through his fingertips—it was the power of faith from countless devout believers of the Holy Light pantheon!
"this..."
Jiang Yan's pupils suddenly contracted sharply.
He withdrew his arm, took a step back, and looked up to ask:
"All realms, is this... truly an illusion?"
