At this moment, Yang Qi felt the true threat of death. He had never imagined that he would die at Su Mu's hands.
Because even if he lost this war and forfeited his right to compete, he would merely exit the stage in desolation.
He had never imagined that Su Mu could kill him completely! The word "death" was foreign to him. He had never thought that "death" would descend upon his own head.
Even if the other two joined forces to besiege him, they still could not kill him.
At their level of cultivation, there could only be defeat; death and falling had no place.
Yet at this moment, facing Su Mu, he felt death looming within arm's reach.
Moreover, he had long since transcended reincarnation and was no longer bound by its laws. That came with both benefits and drawbacks.
The benefit was that the laws of reincarnation did not touch him. He had no Lifespan, and there was no such thing as "his Lifespan running out." Unless the Myriad Realms shattered, he could possibly die; he had already reached the point of sharing the same longevity as the Myriad Realms.
The drawback was that once he was completely killed, he could not enter reincarnation and be reborn.
Death meant true death—utterly reduced to ashes and dispersed throughout the Myriad Realms.
But before meeting Su Mu, this drawback had not been a drawback at all. Yang Qi possessed the strength to transcend reincarnation and stood atop the pyramid of the Myriad Realms. There were basically no enemies capable of killing him.
Thus, this drawback was neither here nor there for Yang Qi.
But now... Su Mu's strength had grown powerful enough to instantly destroy everything he had! Su Mu coldly watched Yang Qi as his hand slowly descended.
