At first glance, it seemed Emperor Without Heaven had been shattered to pieces, but he had not actually died.
Fan Lang had not received any relevant system prompt, yet he already knew this, so he did not lower his guard. He kept his eyes fixed ahead, catching every slightest movement.
Suddenly, a mass of bloody light emerged in midair. A tall figure rose within it, swiftly condensing new flesh and blood.
Emperor Without Heaven had actually rebuilt his body and gained a new divine physique. All his previous injuries had vanished, and he looked brimming with life.
"I, Emperor Without Heaven, have run rampant across the universe, stopping at nothing and committing every evil under heaven. Even the demon race must feel ashamed before me. I am the most wicked and vicious being in this world—how could I possibly die at the hands of pests like you?"
Emperor Without Heaven boasted loudly. A new suit of armor appeared on his body, making him look completely renewed, as though his previous decline had all been an illusion.
Fan Lang was neither surprised nor disappointed by this.
Regenerative abilities like this were nothing new. The Undying Body Fan Lang had acquired in the past possessed similar effects, though Emperor Without Heaven's methods were far more sophisticated.
Even a divine turtle with a long life would eventually reach its end. True immortality did not exist in the universe.
Emperor Without Heaven's regeneration would inevitably consume energy. He could not regenerate without limit, and there was still a way to kill him completely.
A centipede did not stop writhing after death. Completely killing a peak Upper God was exceedingly difficult. Only someone like the Aurora God Emperor could kill the current Emperor Without Heaven with relative ease.
Fan Lang's fighting spirit did not diminish.
