Chapter 1791: Divine Tiger Seals Yin Yang

Sightless Underworld had used its own body as a mirror to reflect the Acheronian Sun's power towards the Grand Devil Kings that had made it to the divine continents. As a result, the Grand Devil Kings had been greatly strengthened, causing the Heavenly Emperors of the divine continents to feel increasing amounts of pressure.

Originally, the divine continents were at a slight numerical disadvantage with their top tier combatants. However, the buff applied to the Grand Devil Kings had stretched the gap further.

Even so, none of the Heavenly Emperors shirked their responsibilities. The divine continents were large, but there was nowhere to run. If they so much as took one step back, their sects and descendents would fall instantly.

Thus, they immediately responded by activating their countless secret arts, using all of their strength to fend off the Shadow World. The situation was dire, so they had no choice but to put their lives on the line.

Out of all the battles taking place throughout the world, the ones between the nine Divine Fruit combatants were the most critical ones.

......

The Thunderflame Divine Continent was a land covered in lightning and fire. Towering volcanoes and mountain ranges dominated the unique landscape, constantly overflowing with lava.

At this moment, a stream of light fell from the sky, crashing into a volcanic mountain range. The terrifying shockwave flattened everything within a million miles, turning it into a sea of lava and flames.

A figure stood up amidst the rubble—Wang Taixi. As he looked at the raging sea of molten rock, he opened his mouth and inhaled forcefully, sucking all of the surging lava into his mouth. After which, he turned his head to look at the sky, where a devil god was slowly walking out of the void.

Its face was unusually strange; half of it was male and the other half female. It was like Yin and Yang had fused in a single body. This was one of the Divine Fruit Grand Devil Kings, the Yin Yang Grand Devil King.

"How dare a mere Heavenly Emperor who has fallen from the Divine Fruit Realm challenge me! You're simply courting death!" said Yin Yang's female side.

"Aren't you Wang Taixi, one of the Void Resonance's Six Sons? My genetic memories can still remember your face. When you followed the Sect Master to slaughter her way through the Shadow World, you killed a Divine Fruit Grand Devil King, though at a crippling cost to yourself. Afterwards, you were ambushed and killed by several Grand Devil Kings. I never expected to meet someone who died so many years ago. Alas, you're nowhere near your prime," said its male half.

The two halves of Yin Yang's face continued to chatter, but Wang Taixi remained indifferent. As someone who had actually died countless years ago, he wouldn't be offended by these mocking words or feel unsettled by them. It was as Yin Yang had said—was no longer a Divine Fruit Heavenly Emperor in his prime.

He was originally at a slight disadvantage in this matchup, but with the addition of the Acheronian Sun's power, Yin Yang's power had increased dramatically, causing the gap to widen.

Even then, so what? Wang Taixi's eyes were nonchalant as he took in the sight of the vast land around him. He then calmly replied, "Since your inherited memories remember me, then do you know how I killed that Divine Fruit Grand Devil King?"

Yin Yang's smile stiffened. Before it could respond, the entire area shuddered violently as the lands tore apart. Countless volcanoes emerged, spewing out incredible amounts of lava and smoke plumes, capable of obscuring the sky. The lava then solidified, transforming into a gigantic scroll.

A ferocious divine tiger, exuding an imposing aura, walked out of the scroll. Atop the tiger's back were thousands of volcanos, all spewing ash and smoke. With every step, the world quaked in fear.

"This is the Devil Subduing Mountain Carrying Divine Tiger Diagram. It is something that the Sect Master helped me create. Back then, a Divine Fruit Grand Devil King was greatly injured by this," Wang Taixi indifferently explained.

Yin Yang's gaze turned gloomy. A black and white Yin Yang Devil Halo appeared, containing Divine Fruit Yin Yang Authority that completely annihilated all of the worldly natural energy around it.

"What divine tiger? I only see a sick cat that has none of its former merciless prestige," Yin Yang coldly retorted.

The divine tiger carrying thousands of volcanoes was still a terrifying opponent to behold, so Yin Yang had to take it seriously. Even so, it was naive to assume that the tiger could kill it. After all, Wang Taixi was nowhere near his prime; what he was capable of years ago was no longer possible.

Wang Taixi lifted his head and looked at the divine tiger. A calm smile appeared on his face as he said, "Indeed. I am nowhere near as strong as I used to be. However, you pathetic Others have underestimated the dying will of a dead man."

He then walked towards the divine tiger with a smirk. "I humbly request your assistance, Brother Tiger."

As the tiger looked at Wang Taixi, complicated emotions filled its eyes. A moment later, it opened its fang-laden maw and bit down decisively towards him. Wang Taixi's body was almost completely crushed by the tiger's bite, his flesh and blood being swallowed. His blood contained incredible amounts of power, and each drop caused a volcano to be spawned across the earth. Wang Taixi had offered himself as the sacrifice to the tiger!

Sensing the unparalleled savage aura arising from the divine tiger caused a look of appreciation to appear in his eyes. For a moment, he felt as though he had returned to his former peak.

At that time, Wang Taixi had followed the Sect Master into the Shadow World, culling all enemies in their path. They had slaughtered one Grand Devil King after another, to the point that they were cowering in fear.

Unfortunately, now that the Sacred Void Resonance Sect had disappeared into the rivers of time and the Sect Master had fallen, there was nothing left for him to live for. Thus, he would offer up his body to the world as a final act to protect it. This would be a worthwhile death. Although there was a small chance that he could be revived, his body could no longer hold on.

"Haha, I couldn't possibly ask for a more glorious death than this! My juniors, I will be the first to take my leave. May the divine continents live forever!" roared Wang Taixi as he laughed uproariously.

He took another step forward, allowing the divine tiger to snap up the remaining half of his body. Worldly natural energy surged, sweeping across every corner of the world. It was as though it was grieving, now that a Divine Fruit Heavenly Emperor had truly fallen.

After consuming Wang Taixi's flesh and blood, the divine tiger's brutal and wild aura strengthened to a terrifying level. Even Yin Yang's expression changed.

"He was truly a lunatic!" Yin Yang was frustrated and furious. It had never expected that Wang Taixi would take such an insane course of action. He was a lofty Divine Fruit Heavenly Emperor, a pinnacle being, regardless of whether they were in the Shadow World or the divine continents.

Although it had the advantage in their previous clashes, it couldn't possibly beat Wang Taixi in a short span of time. Heavenly Emperors were incredibly tenacious, and killing them would take much more than just a few days.

It was clear that Wang Taixi could have held on for much longer. However, the madman had directly opted to sacrifice himself to the tiger. This meant that he was willing to drag Yin Yang down to hell with him.

If Yin Yang didn't die as a result of Wang Taixi's sacrifice, it would undoubtedly be grievously injured. This notion left it enraged, as it saw his actions as pure stupidity. However, a cold chill suddenly ran through its body.

It raised its head, and it saw the gigantic divine tiger's scarlet eyes lock onto it with an aura overflowing with merciless brutality. It was now the carrier of Wang Taixi's dying will, so it would fight until it died. The ruthlessness that the tiger was exuding caused Yin Yang to feel a deep sense of unease.

Bang!

A moment later, the tiger pounced. It was as though the heavens and earth had shrunk and the tiger had become infinitely large. A mark appeared between Yin Yang's eyebrows, along with a black white Divine Fruit. It released massive amounts of Divine Fruit Flame that swept towards the tiger.

Alas, the tiger completely disregarded the fire. The volcanoes on its back all erupted simultaneously, causing immense amounts of Authority to sweep outwards. All of the worldly natural energy on Thunderflame Divine Continent started boiling over at this moment, turning berserk.

In the end, to the surprise of every spectator, the divine tiger completely enveloped the Yin Yang Grand Devil King.

Yin Yang roared furiously, channeling its Divine Fruit power to strike against the tiger in an attempt to free itself. Alas, the divine tiger was completely unfazed and motionless.

It then slowly landed, turning into a majestic and towering mountain range that stretched for millions of miles, resembling a humongous sleeping tiger. Yin Yang had been suppressed underneath the mountains.

The battle on the Thunderflame Divine Continent had come to a conclusion. Wang Taixi had perished and the Yin Yang Grand Devil King was sealed.
