Apotheosis

From the continental plates, which were tens of millions of miles wide, to the fist-sized stones, they all turned into fine powder and floated upward into the sky.

"What happened?"

"What's going on?"

"Our bodies! They are collapsing!"

Still, a large number of the creatures remained on the belt of the Source World.

They all hoped to survive, but luck was not on their side this time.

Each of them looked around in a panic as they saw inches of their bodies flaking off bit by bit, turning into dust and eventually, drifting into the air.

A few wanted to escape while others wanted to resist, but their efforts proved to be useless at this point.

The Evil God was always firm with any decision he had ever made.

Before, he thought he stood a chance with the help of the Fields, but he soon realized that there was a gap too big to be filled. In this realization, he chose his last resort.

Within an hour, all the things in the Source World, along with tens of thousands of creatures, were sacrificed. At the same time, the belt completely disappeared and left only the prison on the platform while the black ship floated not too far away.

Shera, the former captain, and Edna stood on the deck as they witnessed the broken Source World disappear right before their eyes.

"Thanks to the Evil God, my black ship will survive," the former captain said with a bitter smile.

"This is crazy... I like it. Too crazy," Shera exclaimed giddily.

Edna looked over at Shera, her expression as calm as ever. No matter what the Evil God did, she would wholeheartedly support him.

"Grow!"

the Evil God roared.

Just then, the prison on the platform expanded rapidly and new avatars shot up one after the other.

The number of appearing avatars exceeded one hundred thousand, then five hundred thousand, and eventually, there were one million of them packing densely the platform.

The Grandmaster of Heaven looked at them and asked, "How many avatars can be made once all the materials in the Source World are consumed?"

The Evil God looked down then proceeded to answer, "Around four million."

Each avatar was far stronger than an ordinary warrior at the Eternal Realm, so the Source World was limited to produce only four million of them.

"With so many avatars on our side, it's a force that can be reckoned with," the Grandmaster of Heaven pointed out.

The real Evil God sneered, "Four million ants are still no match for an elephant. They are not strong in battle, but I only need their intelligence."

One of the avatars who stood behind the

rt amount of time, Zen had already launched six sets of 'Mirror', 'Uniting' and 'Annihilating' in a row, which created gaping holes within the Burial Land.

But even though his attacks were powerful, it was still unable to kill the downgrader.

Just then, the downgrader released a light that resembled a dazzling golden sun. The sun surrounded him and expanded along the edge of the Burial Land. At the same time, the Pear Hill, the divine land, and the Ruin Graveyard were swallowed up by the golden sun while tens of billions of Troubled Creatures were killed in the process.

The entire Burial Land grew still and silent, all except for the fairy palace that Zen managed to protect.

Once the light of the golden sun eventually dimmed down, the silhouette of the downgrader appeared from a distance. "In the past, when a world ended, Clarence and I had a fierce battle. That was definitely my favorite. This time, with you as my opponent, I have to say I am pretty damn bored."

For him, Zen merely used tactics that attacked him instead of killing him. In the end, nothing Zen ever struck him with produced substantial damage to him.

"Ten billion..."

Zen stood up tall as he raised his hand into the air. Just then, ten billion silver rings of light scattered across the sky.

It seemed that he was still using the set of 'Mirror', 'Uniting' and 'Annihilating'.

Whoosh!

The energy flow gathered and rushed straight at the downgrader.

Usually, all the downgrader had to do was dodge. However, he'd planned to forcefully block the energy flow altogether.

To his surprise, as he resisted the energy flow, Zen's figure quietly disappeared. The next thing he knew, Zen stood right by the black light.
