Ch. 1608 - In A Realm With No One, Let Me Play A Song

A series of thunderous explosions echoed as lightning and fire detonated against the barrier in the void. The Cold Water Saint Sovereign and the Rage Fire Saint Sovereign felt their bodies sink, when the explosive force erupted, it struck both of them hard and sent them crashing downward.

Xu Zimo stepped into the air and instantly appeared beside the Shocking Thunder Saint Sovereign. The Thunder Saint Sovereign’s face changed, and he retreated rapidly, turning himself into streaks of lightning. But Xu Zimo was faster. He intercepted the lightning form in an instant.

Then came a swift hooking kick to the his jaw, followed by a spinning motion.

“Goodbye,” Xu Zimo said with a cold smile.

Shadow Tyrant slid across his back and stabbed brutally into the Thunder Saint’s heart. The heart burst into pieces, and the Thunder Saint’s entire body exploded apart.

“Next,” Xu Zimo growled.

He turned once more and charged into another cluster of Saint Sovereigns. This time, eight of them stood directly before him.

These eight cultivated the most extreme Primal Daos, Destruction, Immortality, Death, Space, Light, Gravity, Curse, and Summoning. The eight Primal Daos surged around them like raging torrents. The eight Saint Sovereigns stood tall and imposing, blocking Xu Zimo’s path.

“I’ll sever you myself,” the Space Saint Sovereign declared as he attacked. He grabbed at the air, condensing space itself. The void froze. Space solidified around Xu Zimo as if massive forces were squeezing it like a sponge, but this force was far beyond any sponge. The Space Saint tried to crush Xu Zimo within the constricted void.

Xu Zimo roared angrily and punched downward, shattering the frozen space. His blade followed, tearing through the heavens. The Space Saint spread his hands wide, erecting layers of spatial barriers, but he was still not strong enough.

With the might of a Sage Monarch and the storm of demonic energy swirling around him, Xu Zimo cleaved through all spatial barriers and split the Space Saint Sovereign in half.

Seeing this, the other Saint Sovereigns trembled slightly. The Space Saint’s strength was on par with theirs, yet he had been cut down instantly.

“He cannot be fought alone. We attack together!” the Curse Saint Sovereign said.

He began chanting.

“All things age and rot. All powers become nothing. Birth, age, sickness, death, curse all to emptiness.”

The Death Saint Sovereign stepped forward as well. Death Primal Dao coiled around his arm, and clouds of death surged around him.

“I am Death itself. I strip away life. Die.”

With a thunderous boom, a torrent of death engulfed Xu Zimo completely. Death and curse washed over everything.

“It’s not enough… nowhere near enough.”

A surge of demonic energy burst out from Xu Zimo’s body, stretching across the entire sea of death and curses. With another punch and slash, the void exploded. Both the Curse and Death Saints were blasted away, tumbling uncontrollably.

Xu Zimo seemed to revel in the battle. With Sage Monarch might and roaring demonic energy, he charged at the remaining Saint Sovereigns.

The Gravity Saint swept his right hand.

“Gravity of the world, the majesty of heaven and earth!”

Countless gravitational forces descended, not dozens or hundreds of times normal gravity, but the true, infinite power of heaven and earth. Heaven and earth’s force could suppress anything. Human strength had limits; the earth’s did not.

Xu Zimo felt his entire body sink. A vast pressure surged over him. For a moment, he felt as though he were fighting the heavens themselves, an endless weight threatening to crush his limbs, bones, and organs.

He roared and strained, trying to break free from the boundless suppression.

“Light Corrosion,” the Light Saint Sovereign intoned, stepping forward. He shone like a blazing sun. Endless radiance poured from him, not simply illumination, but purification.

“You carry sin. Evil must be devoured by light and enter the heavenly kingdom.”

His True Fate manifested, a kingdom of light. It was only a projected illusion, yet within it countless visions flickered. A million Buddhas standing, radiant pendulums swinging, holy lights rising, sacred scriptures turning as multitudes recited them.

The kingdom of light descended, attempting to purify and assimilate Xu Zimo.

Xu Zimo felt an overwhelming comfort. His pores opened, greedily absorbing the power of light. It created the illusion that he should abandon himself to the radiance and become part of it.

“I am a demon. You think this little light can convert me? You’re ten thousand years too early.”

He laughed loudly. His expression calmed, and divine light burst from his eyes. Supported by the Hell-Suppressing Demon Physique, demonic energy surged upward and crashed into the kingdom of light.

“Ahhh!” The Light Saint Sovereign screamed.

Demonic energy wrapped around him. He had intended to purify Xu Zimo but instead was being corroded by Xu Zimo’s infernal power. It devoured his light and threatened to drag him into darkness.

The other Saint Sovereigns instinctively backed away.

The Light Saint Sovereign writhed and roared. He collapsed to the ground as the light in his body faded, until finally he was completely consumed by darkness.

“Don’t be scared. Come again.”

Xu Zimo charged back into the group of Saint Sovereigns. Each punch and kick sent thunder rolling across the heavens.

“Wonderful. Truly wonderful!”

Though he was covered in blood, Xu Zimo felt as if he had been born for battle. Every part of him sang with exhilaration.

The spectators were completely stunned.

Xu Zimo seemed impossible to kill. The Tree of Life constantly restored him. Ancient Wood God Jumang’s inheritance healed him to the point of near resurrection. With both powers at once, Xu Zimo could fight freely without the slightest restraint.

He tore through the encirclement of thousands of Saint Sovereigns over and over, killing as he pleased.

The heavens dimmed, the sky cracked, and rivers of blood flowed.

Corpses piled up.

The Primordial Mountain Sage Monarch, the God Lord of the Yue God-Clan and commander of the Saint Sovereigns, wore an ugly expression. The entire Absolute God Heaven was watching this battle, hoping the Yue God-Clan would swiftly suppress the True Martial Sacred Ground. But things had gone horribly wrong.

Even with every Saint Sovereign of the Yue God-Clan, they still could not handle Xu Zimo.

“This monster’s strength is downright perverse,” the Axe-Halberd Saint Sovereign muttered. “I’ve never seen a Sage Monarch like this.”

“Most likely invincible in his realm,” the Primordial Mountain Sage Monarch said. Realm invincibility was simple, no matter how many opponents of the same level you brought, none could harm him.

Because the difference wasn’t in numbers, it was in quality.

“Do we really have to…?” the Axe-Halberd Saint Sovereign asked cautiously.

“No rush,” the Primordial Mountain Sage Monarch said. “Allow me to play a piece, the Infernal-Creation Eternal-Canon.”
