Abyss Collapse
The moment the Abyssal Sage King was frozen in place, the ferocious glint in his eyes instantly vanished, then turned into blankness in a fleeting instant, as if he did not understand what had happened.
Immediately following, an undisguised fear spread deep into the darkness of his pupils—the most instinctive reaction to a power that was completely incomprehensible.
He thought this attack was a sure thing, but he never expected that Huo Yuhao would have such an unbelievable method, not only easily avoiding his fatal blow, but also freezing him in place, unable to move.
After Huo Yuhao created some distance, the Time-Space Freezing Power that had enveloped the entire Abyss quietly dissipated, and everything around him resumed its flow.
The Abyssal Sage King regained control of his body, the Heavenly Saint Splitting Abyss Halberd hovering in mid-air, yet he hesitated to launch another attack.
The scene he had just witnessed had a profound impact on him; the feeling of powerlessness at being excluded from the flow of time itself left him with lingering fear.
Having mastered that method, Huo Yuhao was practically invincible.
The Abyssal Sage King remained still, but Huo Yuhao moved.
He raised his right hand, clenched his fist, and a scepter shimmering with a dark Purple Halo appeared in his hand— the Super Divine Tool, the Scepter of Destruction.
The moment the scepter appeared, a vast and pure Power of Destruction spread out like a flood bursting its banks, almost enveloping the entire sky and dyeing the originally chaotic Abyss dome with a deep dark purple.
The faces of the surrounding Abyssal Emperor turned deathly pale, and even their breathing faltered. They sensed an absolutely irresistible power from that Destruction God aura—a crushing force at the level of laws.
Huo Yuhao raised his hand and pointed, the Scepter of Destruction aimed at the Abyssal Sage King not far away.
The Law of Destruction that filled the sky responded to his will instantly, transforming into countless purple-black lightning bolts, carrying the power of the Zhongyan all things, pouring down on the Abyssal Sage King from all directions like a torrential rain.
Each bolt of lightning contained the complete power of the Law of Destruction, enough to annihilate any Deity below the first level.
Although the Abyssal Sage King's strength had reached the level of Primary Deity, he ultimately did not have God Position, and his control and comprehension of the laws were far less pure and profound than Huo Yuhao's.
Moreover, the Heavenly Saint Splitting Abyss Halberd's characteristics are more inclined towards close-range defense breaking, and its advantage is completely eliminated in long-range law-based clashes.
Faced with the overwhelming lightning, he could only awkwardly swing his halberd, constantly parrying and dodging.
The black robes of the Abyssal Sage King were torn to shreds by the continuous Destruction Thunder, revealing his pale, frost-like body beneath.
The Destruction Thunder left charred wounds on his body, his flesh peeling and melting away to reveal his ghastly bones.
But the seemingly fatal wound healed and regenerated at a speed visible to the naked eye within a few breaths, with new flesh covering the old wound, and the recovery was rapid and thorough.
He laughed again, a laugh tinged with an almost manic arrogance, "Hahaha! I am the Abyss, and as long as the Abyss exists, I am Undying!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao remained calm and composed, without the slightest fluctuation in his expression.
He naturally realized this as well. The reason why the Abyssal Sage King was able to possess such a powerful self-healing ability was because he was both the embodiment of the will of the Abyss Plane and the Life Core in this plane.
When the two are combined, as long as the Abyss remains, his life force will never cease.
The situation was indeed as he had said. As long as the Abyss Plane existed, he could continuously consume the Plane's essence to repair his injuries, like wild grass that could be burned and then regenerated, an inexhaustible force.
However, this restorative power is not without its costs. Every time flesh is reshaped and every wound is healed, it consumes the primal power accumulated in the Abyss Plane.
In fact, the simplest way to deal with the Abyssal Sage King right now is to seal him away.
After all, even if he were Undying, once sealed, he would be unable to do anything, which would be no different from being dead.
However, Huo Yuhao did not make that choice. Instead, when he saw the provocative look in the Abyssal Sage King's eyes, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.
Huo Yuhao suddenly waved his left hand, and a vast and pure Life God force burst forth from his palm.
A lush, verdant tree slowly emerged behind him, its canopy reaching the sky, its branches and leaves shimmering with a warm, watery green light, each leaf seemingly carrying the vitality of an entire world.
That boundless Life God emanated from this great tree, gentle yet omnipresent, like the first growth of all things breaking through the soil in spring, instantly forming a stark contrast with the Power of Destruction.
An unprecedented spectacle appeared in the sky above the entire Abyss.
On one side, purplish-black, surging, Destruction Thunder crackled low, pressing in.
On the other side, there was a vibrant green glow of Life God, as if a new sky had been opened up, warm and serene.
The two forces each occupy half of the territory, drawing a clear and awe-inspiring dividing line in this chaotic and dark Abyss, distinct and unyielding to each other.
The Abyssal Sage King, who had just been laughing wildly, suddenly froze on his face, his arrogance turning into disbelief and astonishment.
He stared at the lush green tree behind Huo Yuhao, his pupils dilated, and he exclaimed in shock, "Another Super Divine Tool?!"
With his keen eyesight, he could naturally tell that it was not a real tree, but a Super Divine Tool formed from the laws of nature and containing boundless Life God.
The reason why Huo Yuhao stayed in the Divine Realm for so long before returning when he traveled back ten thousand years was precisely to receive the inheritance of the Goddess of Life.
He is no longer the Huo Yuhao only held the position of Destruction God Position when he first entered the Divine Realm, but now he is a being who holds the God King Position both God of Destruction and Life God.
The great tree floating behind him at this moment is the Tree of Life, Super Divine Tool personally passed down to him by the Goddess of Life of Tree of Life.
He calmly gazed at the Abyssal Sage King, and said unhurriedly, "I wouldn't be here without thorough preparation. Now you can go in peace."
The moment Huo Yuhao finished speaking, the towering, verdant Tree of Life behind him suddenly burst forth with a dazzling blue light.
The light was not warm; instead, it carried a sharp, piercing quality.
This Super Divine Tool is not releasing Life God force at this moment, but rather absorbing it frantically.
Using the Law of Life as a guide, Huo Yuhao directly severed the fundamental connection between the Abyssal Sage King and the Abyss Plane from a distance.
Even though the Abyssal Sage King himself is the Life Core of the Abyss, when it comes to mastering the Law of Life, he is far from being a match for Huo Yuhao, who holds the Life God King Position.
Therefore, as the Tree of Life "exerted its power," the primal force that was constantly flowing from the Abyss Plane towards the Abyssal Sage King to repair his injuries was forcibly severed.
His injuries would not heal; the charred furrows left by the Destruction Thunder would not heal, his flesh melted away, and his bones were exposed.
Under the continuous bombardment of the purple-black lightning, the Abyssal Sage King's body disintegrated. First, his flesh turned to ash, then his bones melted away, and finally even his broken outline completely disappeared in the lightning. In the blink of an eye, there was no trace of him left.
With a casual gesture, Huo Yuhao drew the fallen Heavenly Saint Splitting Abyss Halberd back into his hand as if drawn by a force.
The halberd felt slightly heavy in his hand, and its cold touch carried a hint of unruly resistance. However, he merely glanced at it and suppressed the restlessness.
Although this Super Divine Tool is domineering, he is capable of subduing it with his cultivation level, making it a handy weapon.
At that moment, the entire Abyss Plane began to tremble violently.
The earth cracked, the sky shattered, and turbulent energy surged everywhere.
With the fall of the Abyssal Sage King, the first layer of the Abyss is collapsing and disintegrating at a visible speed.
The Abyssal Sage King was not only the emperor of the first layer of the Abyss, but also the will of the entire plane. His death was like a pillar being pulled out, causing the entire building to teeter on the brink of collapse.
The violent energy released after the collapse of the first layer is like a wild horse, spreading uncontrollably to the layers below. If left unchecked, it could destroy most of the Abyss.
Huo Yuhao raised his eyes, calmly uttering a single word. "Stop!"
This time, there was no time freeze, no space solidification, but just a casual command, and the ever-spreading Destruction God energy was as if its momentum was suppressed by an invisible hand, abruptly stopping in place.
The Abyssal Emperor around them were now ashen-faced and their legs were weak.
Even the supreme holy ruler has vanished into nothingness, how could these Abyssal Emperor possibly escape unscathed?
Fear Entanglement everyone's heart like a venomous snake, and they could only await death.
