The power of laws was still being ceaselessly mobilized.
Old White Ape inched toward Yu Sheng, step by step, yet wore a smile on his face.
A smile of release.
Just now, he had finally broken through his heart demon.
The Heavenly Race...
Those shadows that had once shackled him and imprisoned him for a lifetime had shattered...
Vanishing into smoke along with that scroll.
Given just a little more time, he could take the next step.
Even in ancient times...
He could stand shoulder to shoulder with those deities.
"I..."
"Do still have something."
"Something very small."
Yu Sheng stood where he was. Though his face was so pale, he continued speaking earnestly.
"Heh..."
"What trump card could you possibly have left!"
"Your Awakening Objects, your Scroll..."
"Right now..."
"You already... have nothing left..."
Old White Ape scoffed, then coughed heavily again.
"I really do have something..."
"If it can't kill you, I... won't have any other way."
Yu Sheng shook his head slightly, his gaze sincere.
As his words fell, a ripple of spiritual energy seemed to flash through the void, accompanied by the power of laws.
The next moment...
A dagger pierced Old White Ape's chest, bringing up flecks of blood.
Old White Ape grunted and lowered his head in disbelief, looking at the culprit before him.
The dagger was ordinary.
It was simply the most common kind of dagger among the Human Race's Awakening Objects.
Yet nine crystal stones were embedded in this dagger.
Unlike Yu Sheng's other Awakening Objects, whose Demon Cores were all in their most perfected state.
This dagger looked like quite a jumble.
The ninth crystal stone was still at Demon Lord Level. A tenth socket had already opened, but no Demon Core had been embedded in it yet.
In other words...
