Rahula Dies, the Great War Ends

Of course.

If he used the Blood Sea Grand Array to scheme against the Chaos Demon Gods, there was every chance they would notice.

So from the very beginning, Styx had set his sights on Rahula as the target for the array!

After Rahula reincarnated into the Primordial Wilderness, even at his peak, he had only been an expert at the Quasi-Sage Peak.

Now, he had been defeated in the Dao-Devil War and beaten by Hongjun until only a Remnant Soul remained, fleeing for its life.

His strength had fallen far from what it once was, and with the Heavenly Dao watching him like a tiger eyeing its prey, how could he possibly notice Styx's little tricks?

The Balance Demon God was blocked outside the grand array.

Though to him, this array was hardly anything profoundly intricate; given a little time, he could break it.

But Rahula's situation was far from good now.

If they delayed even a moment, Rahula would likely be reduced to ashes.

Seeing this, Rahula immediately burst into curses.

"You whelp, you dare play tricks and scheme against me?!"

At the same time, Rahula charged at Styx almost like a madman.

Styx was no fool, either.

Since his purpose in plotting against Rahula was clear, he had naturally prepared for Rahula's counterattack.

The instant Rahula moved, the Profound Origin Water Control Flag and the Karma Fire Red Lotus in Styx's hands flared with brilliant light.

The Profound Origin Water Control Flag hovered above Styx's head, controlling the filthy blood of the Blood Sea and turning it into a curtain of water that blocked Rahula.

Meanwhile, the Karma Fire Red Lotus beneath Styx's feet split into ten thousand crimson lotuses, firmly protecting his entire body!

Rahula had already been injured, and the Eye of the Heavenly Dao had just drained him of all his mana.

Now, he was even less capable of breaking through Styx's defenses.

Behind him, the Eye of the Heavenly Dao remained tightly shut, while on the other side, the Balance Demon God was still breaking the array.

Seeing himself nearly driven into a dead end, the hatred in Rahula's eyes was so intense it seemed ready to turn into flying daggers and slay Styx.

If not for Styx, how could the Heavenly Dao have discovered his whereabouts?

And how could Balance have been blocked outside the formation, unable to come to his aid?

Consumed by hatred, Rahula let out a booming laugh, yet there was not the slightest trace of joy in it.

"Ha ha ha! For countless years, I, Rahula, have been the one plotting against others. Never did I imagine that today, I would be plotted against by some nameless junior! Fine, fine, fine! Since fate has decreed this calamity, then I shall perish together with all of you!"

Afterward, Rahula directly activated a secret art, igniting his own Remnant Soul as he charged toward Styx.

Rahula was going to self-destruct!

Styx was startled.

"Big brother, are you all right? Shouldn't your greatest enemy be the Heavenly Dao? Why are you coming after me?"

It was not as though Styx had never considered that Rahula might self-destruct.

If Styx had been in Rahula's position, he would have chosen the same course.

After all, if one was going to die anyway, it was better to drag one's enemy down with them.

But Styx had thought Rahula would choose to perish together with the Heavenly Dao. He had not expected himself to be the target.

Rahula gave a cold smile.

Of course, he could guess what Styx was thinking.

Of course, he hated the Heavenly Dao as well.

But he also understood clearly.

Though the current Heavenly Dao had yet to fully mature, it was absolutely at least an existence above the Primordial Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal level.

Meanwhile, this wisp of Remnant Soul of his currently possessed only about the strength of a Great Luo Golden Immortal Peak.

Even if he self-destructed, it was unlikely he could inflict much damage on the Eye of the Heavenly Dao.

But Styx was different.

Styx had only just entered the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. If he self-destructed, he could at the very least tear a layer of skin off him!

Still reeling from the shock, Styx hurriedly poured all his strength into activating the Profound Origin Water Control Flag and the Karma Fire Red Lotus to defend himself.

Rahula's face was filled with madness!

"Brat, prepare to die!"

Styx had finally transmigrated once. If he really died just like this, would that not be an utterly ruinous loss?

To seize that sliver of survival, Styx truly exerted every last ounce of strength he had.

But the power of Rahula's self-destruction far exceeded the limit Styx could withstand.

Before long, more than half of Rahula's divine soul had burned away, while Styx's defenses were on the verge of collapsing across the board.

A flash of ruthlessness flickered through Rahula's eyes.

Even with only half his divine soul remaining, Rahula showed no sign of easing his pursuit of Styx.

"Damn, what a ruthless man!"

Seeing that he was no match for him, Styx prepared to make a hasty escape.

If he couldn't afford to provoke him, couldn't he at least hide from him?

Only...

In front of him, Rahula was pressing him step by step.

And behind him, the Balance Demon God was still striving to break the formation.

If he fled the formation now, the Balance Demon God would probably tear him apart on the spot.

Fortunately, at that moment, the Eye of the Heavenly Dao finally lent a hand.

After all, according to the great course of the Heavenly Dao, Styx was destined to create the Asura Race and establish the Asura Sect in the future.

Both were crucial links in the Heavenly Dao's path toward perfection, so naturally, it could not allow Styx to die here.

The Eye of the Heavenly Dao shot out a beam of divine light, striking the remaining half of Rahula's divine soul.

This move by the Heavenly Dao caused Rahula's divine soul to freeze for an instant.

Styx had originally thought his chances of survival were slim, but now that a sliver of hope had suddenly appeared, his eyes immediately lit up.

Seizing the chance while Rahula was pinned down by the Eye of the Heavenly Dao, he charged forward with the Yuantu and Abi Twin Swords in hand.

This was his best chance to break free!

The twin swords carried a fierce sword intent, racing toward Rahula like two silver dragons.

Rahula's entire body was frozen in place, unable to move in the slightest. He could only watch helplessly as Styx's attack drew ever closer.

It was even about to pierce his divine soul!

"Pfft!"

In an instant, the Yuantu and Abi Twin Swords pierced straight through Rahula's divine soul.

An unmistakable look of disbelief still lingered in Rahula's eyes.

The mighty Devil Ancestor of the Primordial Wilderness was going to die just like this?

Yet no matter how unbelievable he found it, his divine soul slowly began to turn transparent.

Rahula had ultimately died completely.

After Rahula's divine soul vanished entirely, a mass of Law Origin appeared where he had been.

Before Styx could do anything, the Eye of the Heavenly Dao directly absorbed the mass of Law Origin.

Afterward, the Eye of the Heavenly Dao grew somewhat stronger.

Styx did not mind.

After all, how could he possibly dare to snatch something from the Heavenly Dao right now?

After the Eye of the Heavenly Dao absorbed Rahula's origin, it turned to deal with the remaining Demon Gods.

The first to suffer was Balance.

The moment Balance saw Rahula die, he prepared to flee straight back into the Nine Demon Tower.

Unfortunately, the Heavenly Dao was one step ahead of him.

The Heavenly Dao was, after all, the Heavenly Dao. Though it had yet to fully grow, within the Primordial Wilderness—its own home ground—it held every advantage of terrain.

The Balance Demon God was quickly captured by the Heavenly Dao, which then repeated the same method it had used on Rahula and devoured his origin as well.

Meanwhile, Shi Chen and the other Demon Gods discovered that Rahula had been destroyed and Balance's origin devoured. Already heavily injured, they knew that continuing to tangle with the Heavenly Dao would only put them at an even greater disadvantage.

So Shi Chen said directly.

"Run!"

At Shi Chen's command, the other Demon Gods exerted their strength together, and the Nine Demon Tower instantly blasted the Heavenly Dao Incarnation apart.

Afterward, Shi Chen even froze time, buying time for their escape.

Unfortunately, the Heavenly Dao seemed unaffected by Shi Chen's frozen time.

With a supreme technique, it swept up a thousand layers of waves from the Blood Sea, blocking the Nine Demon Tower's path.

Then it directly sealed the Nine Demon Tower within its own body before vanishing into the Blood Sea.

Styx, who had been resting nearby while watching the show: ???

That was it?

He hadn't had his fill of the spectacle yet!

And after all that fighting, his Blood Sea was nearly devastated beyond recognition. He had even helped the Heavenly Dao kill Rahula, yet the Heavenly Dao just left like that?
