Chapter 1175: The Great Sun Destruction, Devouring the Seventh Primordial Heaven (II)

When the Heavenly Azure Dragon Emperor chose not to fuse with the undying body, but instead forcibly devour it as nourishment to strengthen itself, Celos, who was still being suppressed by Chen Chu, instantly sensed what was happening and let out an enraged roar. "What are you doing? Stop!"

Yet with Heng’s corpse standing in between, the weakened Celos couldn’t cross that insurmountable gap, not to mention it was still restrained by Chen Chu.

"Your era has already ended." Beyond the abyss of endless darkness, Chen Chu sat cross-legged in the void, wearing an imperial crown. Ten layers of chaotic light wheels unfolded behind him as his sixteen arms formed seals. In an instant, boundless light erupted from his body.

The entire starry universe was flooded with a majestic and searing power. A flaming sovereign, ten billion kilometers tall with three heads and sixteen arms, appeared in the starry sky, seated in meditation. Each of its three faces faced a different direction, and each palm supported a blazing star.

Beneath the three golden crowns of fire, Chen Chu’s eyes were half-open. His expression was cold and divine, as if he was a supreme god gazing down upon all living beings. "Great Sun, destroy."

The flames in the sovereign’s hands flared brighter. Sixteen golden stars, each tens of millions of kilometers wide and burning with raging fire, streaked across the void and plunged into the reforming Abyssal Plane.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The blazing suns detonated, each one like a supernova explosion. The outburst of fiery power reached the level of a primordial sovereign, burning everything within its path. Under that overwhelming, destructive heat, the very foundation of the Abyssal Plane began to collapse, and the body Celos had just recondensed was instantly annihilated once more.

That strike contained the power of the supreme divine ability Vacuum Annihilation, a force comparable to a super innate ability. Its flames scorched across four layers of dimensions, burning both past and future. Within that destructive inferno, one-tenth of Celos’s divine soul essence was utterly obliterated.

A shrill, furious scream echoed through the starry sky. Amid the blazing flames, within the fifth-dimensional depths, black fire leapt violently, forming a gigantic twisted face that glared coldly at the flaming sovereign meditating in the void. "How could your power possibly wound my divine soul essence!?"

In that instant, the last trace of pride belonging to the lord of a supreme plane shattered within Celos’s heart. Facing this human, whose realm “wasn’t high," it felt for the first time the impulse to retreat.

Humans are terrifying. Long ago, an undying being only slightly stronger than myself had crushed and sealed me with overwhelming might. Now, after hundreds of thousands of years, newly freed from my seal, I have encountered yet another human, one who seems only at the Third Primordial Heaven, yet whose explosive strength can rival even the Fifth? And the power this human wields is tyrannical, even capable of penetrating my true will form to erode my soul essence.

Over countless millennia, Celos’s soul had long been grievously wounded. Its soul essence had become so weakened that even the slightest loss could bring it to the edge of collapse.

I must leave!

Celos made its decision. Its gaze hardened with resolve.

Losing the undying demonic body was one thing. Even if it suffered severe injury and damage to its foundation, as long as it could have its divine soul will reincarnate and repair its broken soul, it could still rise again. However, if its divine soul will was annihilated here, while its demonic body was devoured, it would truly fall forever.

Yet whether it could escape or not was no longer up to Celos to decide. In the void, the flaming figure ten billion kilometers tall brought its sixteen arms together, and in that instant, the entire universe blazed with light.

A colossal glowing sphere emerged. That vast orb of radiance, formed from the fire and light of the exploding supernovae, expanded across hundreds of billions of kilometers, enveloping the shattered abyss where Celos had been destroyed.

What shocked Celos most was that within the glowing sphere, endless flame runes appeared. They ignited and pierced through time and space, forming a super world-ending sun that spanned billions of kilometers.

"Great Sun, annihilate!" That cold, deep voice reverberated across space-time.

Boom!

In an instant, an even more destructive power erupted. The colossal super sun hanging in the starry sky suddenly collapsed inward, unleashing an indescribable force of annihilating gravity that crushed the very fabric of space-time. As the edges of the star continued collapsing, the inward pull of destructive gravity grew exponentially, breaking through and shattering layers upon layers of dimensional planes.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. It was so fast that Celos had no time to recondense its divine soul, will, or true form. It could only watch helplessly as the dark, destructive power crushed through the first, second, and third dimensional layers, followed by the fourth, and then the fifth layer, where its burning origin had just entered.

"Human!"

Boom!

Finally, the super sun collapsed into a sphere only ten thousand kilometers wide, like a tangible black hole of pure destruction floating in the void.

Around it spread an invisible, unimaginably dense gravitational field that was compressed more than a hundred million times, which twisted and tore apart everything nearby. Even the crystal wall of the Black World was ripped open, forming a gaping hole tens of millions of kilometers wide.

This hole wasn’t a rift opened by Chen Chu using the Heavenly Dao’s authority. It was forcefully blasted open by the sheer power of the strike. From the roaring chaos beyond the shattered crystal wall, a demon god a million kilometers tall emerged. It extended its right hand and slowly grasped the black hole that sealed Celos’ incomplete soul.

Boom!

Chen Chu’s arm trembled slightly. His expression remained indifferent as he held the black hole steady. The tens of thousands of kilometers of his black hair surged wildly behind him, his aura vast, divine, and so majestic it couldn’t be gazed upon directly.

This was Chen Chu’s current strength, suppressing a powerful but incomplete primordial sovereign with ease. Yet since this Abyssal Lord had become a semi-Seventh-Primordial-Heaven being, completely erasing it was still troublesome. Chen Chu would need time to finish the task.

He had to destroy its divine soul piece by piece, and then erase every trace of the principles and marks it had left behind across the layers of space-time. Only then could Celos be truly annihilated, preventing it from reviving one day as a stray will and disturbing the Dragon Emperor’s devouring and refinement of the undying demonic body.

Soon, the sky that had just witnessed a world-shattering battle returned to silence. Among the countless shattered galaxies and planets, Cescilles, split cleanly in half, drifted in the void. When its inhabitants awakened, they were first struck by shock and disbelief.

They saw that their world had literally been torn apart, separated by a vast chasm of black emptiness. The night sky, once filled with countless shining stars, was now completely dark. Every star had vanished, leaving only a single golden sun and a silver moon that still rose and set as before. Yet no matter how the world had changed, ordinary people still had to live. Two months later, order gradually returned to Cescilles.

However, deep beneath the void between the two halves of that world, inside the black Underground Palace of Evil Gods, the two evil gods, Boroedo and Mbolak, remained restless and uneasy. Only they knew what kind of terrifying battle had erupted two months ago.

The power difference had been so vast that they couldn’t even bear to gaze at the battlefield, and thus had no idea what the outcome had been. They didn’t know whether their fearsome brother, Chu Batian, had lived or died, nor did they understand what had happened to that monstrous black-and-red colossal beast that had appeared suddenly and vanished just as abruptly.

Inside the underground palace, Boroedo, who had been sitting on its throne for more than two months, finally lost patience. It turned to the dark figure lying in the distance, about to speak. Just then, the heavens dimmed. A gigantic hand emerged from the depths of the void and, with a thunderous sound, lifted the entire palace into its palm.

A familiar, faintly indifferent voice echoed through the space. "Almost forgot about you two. I’ll send you out first. I still have something to do, so I won’t be staying for a chat."
