Jun Yi didn't say a word. He took a step forward and arrived directly in front of the Creation God. He unleashed several slashes, shattering the Creation God into dust, leaving only a beam of light condensing in mid-air.
"Boom!" The next second, the light exploded, and Jun Yi felt as if his body had been hit hard by a terrifying force, sending him flying backward and crashing into the city wall of Jialing Pass. A large hole was smashed in the city wall, and Jun Yi felt as if Divine Power had invaded his body, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. At the same time, after the light exploded, two figures slowly formed, namely the Destruction God King and the Goddess of Life.
Neither of them had any injuries, and both had recovered to the peak of the God King. This made Jun Yi frown, and a sense of unease arose in his heart.
The Destruction God King hovered in mid-air, sneering at Jun Yi, and said, "Heh, Jun Yi, I must say, you are indeed very strong, actually managing to kill the Creation God that I fused with."
The Goddess of Life smiled calmly and said, "However, do you think you can withstand our combined efforts?"
Jun Yi remained silent; he was even puzzled as to why these two were not injured.
The Destruction God King remained silent, but slowly raised his hand, from which two tattered objects, their shapes no longer discernible, emerged. However, Jun Yi sensed the aura of Evil Divine Power and Kindness Divine Power emanating from these objects.
" Jun Yi, you are very strong, strong enough to destroy the Godhood of Evil and Kindness. I admire you. However, do you have any last words today?" the Destruction God King said coldly.
Jun Yi instantly understood that his attack had been transferred to the two Godhood by the Destruction God King, which was why he was not injured. However, it seemed that the Destruction God King could no longer merge into the Creation God, otherwise he would not have come to test him with words.
Jun Yi slowly stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked up at the two people in mid-air, and said, "I, Jun Yi, will not perish here today. Do you really think that you are the only ones with a backup plan?"
In the blink of an eye, Jun Yi's condition returned to its peak. His tattered clothes seemed to be repaired by invisible energy, and he once again shone with dazzling brilliance. The Goddess of Life and the Destruction God King's expressions changed drastically, both wearing expressions of disbelief.
"What kind of ability is this?" the Destruction God King exclaimed in surprise.
The Goddess of Life was completely stunned. She sensed that Jun Yi was more than twice as strong as he had been before their battle. How had she managed to do that? What exactly was that red fruit?
"I never thought my idea would actually come true. The Op-Op Fruit really can be used for self-sacrifice, and I can accept the price—it's just losing the fruit's power."
Jun Yi was able to recover because he used the most powerful ability of the Op-Op Fruit: sacrifice. This sacrifice grants the " Perennial Youth Operation," which can grant humans eternal Life. He had used it on Zhu Zhuqing before, at the cost of losing the fruit. However, Jun Yi did not die.
He had long considered whether he could use the power of the Op-Op Fruit. He had even asked the system, which said it was possible, but did not tell Jun Yi how, leaving him to develop it himself. Jun Yi had already devised a method of sacrifice, intending to use it as his trump card to turn the tide.
Of course, Jun Yi also faced the risk of failure, but fortunately, he succeeded today.
"Do you two have any last words?"
Jun Yi coldly stared at the Destruction God King and the Goddess of Life, then pulled out the Demon Sword Kikoku, which was stuck in the ground beside him, and pointed it at the two of them.
"You really think I'm afraid of you? We're both at the God King level, and I'm no weaker than you!"
The Destruction God King's Destruction Divine Power condensed into a black spear, which charged directly at Jun Yi.
" A Mie, be careful!" the Goddess of Life loudly warned the Destruction God King.
Faced with the attack from the Destruction God King, Jun Yi did not dodge this time. He merely raised his finger slightly and gently pointed forward.
A golden light emanated from Jun Yi, rapidly rippled outwards, and collided with the black spear. "Boom!" The mere collision of the golden light and the black spear created a deafening energy explosion. The intense energy fluctuations raged outwards, dyeing the sky golden. Even the Destruction God King was blasted away by this energy surge, and the black spear was instantly annihilated by Jun Yi's single finger.
The powerful explosion swept across the sky, Destruction God King only had time to let out a scream before being instantly engulfed by the force.
The aftershocks of the explosion quickly dissipated, and Jun Yi slightly raised his head. He saw a figure slowly materializing from the golden light in mid-air—it was the Destruction God King, who had been blasted into the sky and then fell back down. The Destruction God King Destruction God King felt his mind go blank. He couldn't understand why Jun Yi's strength had suddenly increased so much again. Before the Destruction God King could ask a question, he was immediately thrown away by a terrifying force and crashed directly into a mountain range.
Only the Goddess of Life remained in mid-air, maintaining her form. Her face was extremely pale, and she had lost all her previous composure and calmness. Her once beautiful white divine robes were now tattered, revealing glimpses of her cleavage.
She stared blankly at Jun Yi, still shaken, and stammered, "You... you actually..."
Before the Goddess of Life could finish her sentence, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen. She felt as if her body had been struck by a tremendous force, and she was instantly sent flying backward. Her body left a graceful arc in the air before crashing heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
Jun Yi slowly descended, walked to the Goddess of Life, and without hesitation plunged the knife into Goddess of Life body.
As black smoke billowed from the blade of the Demon Sword Kikoku, Oniku, the Divine Power within the Goddess of Life began to gradually dissolve and disintegrate, and her aura vanished at an alarming rate.
"Why... why?" The Goddess of Life looked terrified. She was utterly bewildered. How could Jun Yi's strength have increased to such an extent in less than a quarter of an hour?
Jun Yi's eyes were calm as he said, "It's all thanks to the Creation Divine Light you instilled in my body; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to absorb it and achieve another breakthrough."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jun Yi completely extracted the last bit of Divine Power from the Goddess of Life's body and merged it into the Demon Sword Kikoku. The Demon Sword Kikoku then quickly fed this power back to Jun Yi. The Goddess of Life's life force completely disappeared, and her body turned into nothingness. A blue lotus flower floated in mid-air, which was the Goddess of Life's Godhood.
