The Throne of Destruction is a map that appears during the final mission of the final act in Diablo. It's a vast underground space, possessing unparalleled pressure from the laws of Hell, and completely different from the outside world, forming its own system. Whoever wields the Throne of Destruction can freely manipulate the laws of this place, using its power for their own purposes, granting it mysterious and terrifying might.

When Sun Fei passed through the [ Throne of Destruction ] that day, he fought extremely hard and obtained this map as a reward after the battle, which became one of his Great Sun Phenomenon. Today, he fought against Reus. This was the first time His King had used this one, which was considered the most bizarre of all his Great Sun Phenomenon. Sure enough, he gradually suppressed Reus, a strongman at the half-body realm.

The [ Throne of Destruction ] was filled with blood-red air and contained fragmented divine power. As the master of the throne, Sun Fei could naturally mobilize this divine power to form a thin film on the surface of his body. He used the power of the throne to fight against Reus's Azure Light Domain and finally blocked the terrible annihilation power outside his body.

It can be said that, to some extent, the [ Throne of Destruction ] has transcended the scope of the Great Sun Phenomenon and possesses characteristics of a similar realm.

Only in this way could Sun Fei get close enough to fight this formidable opponent.

Mephisto was one of the allies Summon by Sun Fei from the Soulstone to fight. After completing the Diablo World quest, Sun Fei did not smash the Soulstone containing Mephisto's essence as required by the quest, but preserved it. According to the information he received from the mysterious, cold voice, possessing this Soulstone, by paying a certain amount of Diablo coins each time, not only could he Summon Summon Hell king Mephisto to fight for him indefinitely, but he could also control everything about this demon king.

In Sun Fei's original plan, Mephisto, the [ God of Vengeance ], who was at the Hell Difficulty level, although he did not possess the power of a true god as legend had it, and was less than one-thousandth of his former glory, he still possessed some fragments of divine laws, enough to Resist the annihilating power of Reus's Azure Light Domain. Who knew that this god would be so useless, being crippled by Reus in just a few moves, which greatly disappointed Sun Fei, and his evaluation of this Demon God dropped considerably.

The battle is raging.

As time went by, Sun Fei's use of the [ Throne of Destruction ] became increasingly masterful, and he felt a sense of seamless integration with the entire terrain. He could infinitely mobilize the Hell divine power here. In addition, the [ Throne of Destruction ] multiplied the power of Sun Fei Sun Fei, and he finally gradually gained an absolute advantage.

"Roar!"

Sun Fei activated his assassin skill [ Tiger Strike ].

With a single punch, a roaring white divine tiger materialized from the limp arm, its howl shaking the very soul and shattering the opponent's mind. Caught off guard, Reus was struck on the back blade of the Azure Light Sword by Sun Fei's punch and sent flying.

"Boom!"

Sun Fei followed closely, activating the assassin skill [ Dragon Talon ]. His five fingers formed a claw shape, gripping Reus's shoulder. His strange power technique instantly rendered half of the Demigod- level expert unable to move Dodge. Then, he quickly activated [ Fists of Fire ], unleashing a barrage of punches.

A terrifying, mystical flame enveloped Sun Fei's fist, giving it the power to shatter divine defenses. After hundreds of punches, a trickle of crimson blood finally seeped from the corner of Reus's mouth.

"Damn it, unforgivable!"

Reus was almost going crazy. Sun Fei's unpredictable and extraordinary skills made him feel for the first time in his life that he was unable to Resist and defend against them. He wanted to counterattack, but he didn't know how to find his opponent's weakness.

Sun Fei had now completely entered a state of complete freedom.

[ Assassin Mode ] is one of the most agile and skill-oriented classes among the seven classes in the Diablo World. With the top-tier [ Natalya's Odium ] set, Sun Fei's speed is no less than Reus's. Moreover, some information from his previous life shows that the Assassin class is based on mysterious Eastern martial arts, specializing in close-quarters combat and possessing unparalleled fighting skills. Sun Fei unleashed a series of incredible skills in rapid succession, with exquisite moves, unique power generation, and divine footwork. When advancing, he was like a thunderbolt crashing down; when retreating, he was like a fleeting glimpse of a wild goose; when Dodge, he was like a dragon in the clouds; and when striking, he was like a crocodile's lightning-fast bite. He was elusive and unpredictable, like a dragon whose head appears but its tail is nowhere to be seen. In the end, he became so fast that even Reus could hardly catch Sun Fei's movements.

"This is impossible, impossible, absolutely impossible... Uh, pfft!"

The signs of defeat were clear, and there was no way to turn the tide. Reus struggled and roared like a trapped beast caught in Sun Fei's snare. Unfortunately, no matter what he did, he could not reverse the decline. Since advancing to the level of Demigod, he had become accustomed to crushing all opponents with strength and realm. Today, he was truly helpless against a freak like Sun Fei.

" The Dragon Flight!"

" Dragon Tail!"

" Double Dragon Talon!"

" Charged Bolt Claws!"

" Phoenix Strike!"

" Blades of Ice!"

" Death Sentry!"

Charged Bolt Sentry!

" Wake of Inferno!"

" Psychic Hammer!"

Mind Blast!

By the end of the battle, Sun Fei had completely gained control of the situation.

He used almost all the skills in [ Assassin Mode ], using Reus, this frustrated Demigod- level powerhouse, as a punching bag to practice his moves, repeatedly experiencing and improving his mastery of these skills and the effects of skill combinations.

At this point, Reus had completely lost the ability to resist.

In the Diablo World, skills don't have a cooldown. As long as you have enough Magic Power, you can use them an unlimited number of times. Every ten seconds, Sun Fei will use either [ Psychic Hammer ] or [ Mind Blast ]. These skills directly attack the opponent's soul and spirit. They are control skills that can cause the opponent to freeze and lose all resistance. The effect is surprisingly good.

"Ha ha, emerge, my shadow hidden in the darkness! I Grant you all my power and skill, to fight for me!"

At Sun Fei's Summon, a powerful warrior, identical to Sun Fei in appearance, equipment, and combat skills, suddenly emerged from the ground, acting like a fearless and painless fighting machine, and joined Sun Fei in attacking Reus.

This is the [ Assassin Mode ] skill [ Shadow Master ].

Summon a shadow warrior with all your strength and skills to fight alongside you.

One Sun Fei was already enough to drive Reus to the brink of collapse, and with another ' Sun Fei ' added to the mix, Reus's last hope was completely shattered. The wounds on this Young Supremes being multiplied rapidly, and streams of blood imbued with immense power splattered onto the ground and the surrounding walls, mixing with the blood of other powerful beings whose blood had dried up for countless years, becoming part of the [ Throne of Destruction ].

Finally, Sun Fei stopped attacking.

The [ Assassin Mode ] skills consume a lot of mana. Sun Fei finally used up all the [ Full Rejuvenation Potion ] and [ Super Mana Potion ] he carried, and his mana dropped to a dangerous level. Moreover, the high-speed combat also consumed a lot of 'stamina', and Sun Fei's stamina was less than one-fifth left.

Thump!

From the opposite side, there was the sound of something heavy falling.

Not long ago, the once-mighty Demigod Reus crashed onto the cold ground, his body riddled with craters and wounds, blood flowing freely, as if he had just been pulled from a pool of blood. His once handsome face was now swollen beyond recognition, resembling an overripe, rotting peach. Countless bones in his body were broken; it was impossible to find a single intact bone. His body was covered with a dense network of deep, bone-penetrating wounds!

That terrifying Azure Light Domain had become extremely weak, barely able to protect him within half a meter of his body, as if it were about to dissipate. Such domain power was no longer sufficient to quickly repair his injured body. Moreover, Sun Fei had unknowingly blasted countless fragments of the divine power of the [ Throne of Destruction ] into his body, enough to cause his injuries to deteriorate endlessly!

"Pfft... Ah... Ah..."

The pride of being Demigod- level powerhouse prevented Reus from collapsing to the ground like a dead dog. With astonishing willpower, he endured the indescribable pain and, incredibly, slowly and deliberately, crawled up from the ground with his broken body, standing against the cold wall.

Blood flowed from the wound, running down his feet to the ground, forming a pool of blood.

"Unbelievable... unbelievable that I, Reus... invincible Zongheng Southern Region... haha... ah, pfft... I... today I've actually been defeated by someone at the Great Sun-Rank Venerable... how... how ironic... King of Chambord... you're good... you're very good... you toy... you haven't disappointed me..."

Blood kept gushing from Reus's mouth and nose, and his face, already swollen beyond recognition, wore a proud smile.

"The turmoil on the continent... is only the beginning... The calamity of a thousand years ago... is about to descend once more... Even the gods and Human Clan... are... barely clinging to life... How could Human Clan... possibly escape... The ancient prophecy... will one day... step over... step over the corpses of geniuses... to reach that pinnacle that everyone will admire... and become... become the savior... Haha... Haha, the Divine Domain is about to open... Only the truly strong... can... can... King of Chambord... You have hope... I am in the embrace of the stars... watching... watching you... Will... be able to... you... Götze has already laid the groundwork..."

In the end, the fragments of Hell divine laws that had been blasted into Reus's body began to explode, mercilessly destroying his body. If it weren't for the few remaining fragments of the Azure Light Domain maintaining his body, Reus would probably have been reduced to dust long ago.

"Haha, finally... no more fighting for others... no more being forced to kill... no more carrying heavy shackles... completely free! Haha, death, perhaps it really is peace. I'm so tired!"

From this day forward, I will be the master of my own world!

With his last ounce of strength, Reus uttered one last inexplicable sentence, then suddenly sat down cross-legged, channeling his remaining domain power to completely heal the injuries on the surface of his body, restoring the aura of the once Zongheng, arrogant, and peerless Young Supremes being.

A relieved smile appeared on his lips.

Even in death, he wanted to maintain the dignity of Demigod- level powerhouse, so he had to restore his original glory. This time, he used the power of his Demigod origin to repair his body, which finally exhausted him and cut off all his life force.

In the next instant, Reus's body shattered, turning into specks of dust shimmering with a blue light, scattering in all directions and forming fleeting illusions.

In those images, Sun Fei vaguely saw the entire short yet proud and glorious life of an extremely cute little boy with blond hair, from birth to growth, learning skills, fighting, becoming famous, and dominating a region. He watched this little boy named Reus bear the enormous expectations of his family and the empire, defying his inner yearning for peace, killing time and time again, his hands stained with blood, watching his brothers fall on the battlefield, repeatedly going into seclusion for long periods of cultivation, and emerging to find his beloved now a melancholy old woman, and his parents lying in a cold tomb...

This was a life both glorious and tragic.

Everything happened in just five or six seconds. Those few blurry images, in less than ten seconds, encompassed the life of a powerful young supreme being who dominated a region. Then, the densely packed cyan light spots dissipated and disappeared like Mars, vanishing into the dark, scarlet air of the [ Throne of Destruction ].

Standing quietly in the distance, Sun Fei felt a sudden, inexplicable sadness welling up inside him.

An extremely powerful Young Supremes, a Demigod who transcended the realm of humanity, thus perished.

From this day forward, I will be the master of my own world!

The last words Reus uttered before dissipating into dust still faintly echoed in Sun Fei's ears. These unconvincing words, spoken by a dying Young Supremes, gave Sun Fei an immense shock.

This is a formidable opponent.

After a while, Sun Fei finally felt his body was somewhat exhausted. He slowly sat down on a fallen stone pillar, let out a long breath, and summarized the gains and losses of this battle.

If it weren't for the various secret weapons from the Diablo World, such as the [ Throne of Destruction ], and the [ Scepter of Creation ], which was his life-saving trick, Sun Fei would probably have been killed by Reus long ago. This battle was extremely dangerous, and now, thinking back on it, Sun Fei still feels a wave of fear.

This was Sun Fei's first time fighting against a master ranked among the Young Supremes. If the other Young Supremes were as powerful as Reus, then Sun Fei being ranked at the bottom of the Young Supremes ' strength ranking would definitely be a true reflection of his strength.

To be honest, Reus has had some bad luck.

With his Demigod Realm strength, he could easily crush any opponent at the Great Sun-Rank Venerable. The Great Sun Phenomenon couldn't possibly encompass a powerful being who had mastered the power of a domain. Unfortunately, Sun Fei's [ Throne of Destruction ] could ignore the difference in realm, allowing Sun Fei to seize the moment when Reus was stunned by the power of the [ Scepter of Creation ] and strike, bringing him into the [ Throne of Destruction ].

The Throne of Destruction itself contains divine laws. Even if it is not the nemesis of domain power, it is not afraid of domain power. Reus, who was trapped in it, was suppressed by the completely different rules of this place. He fought against Mephisto and Sun Fei, two freaks, one after the other. With his power not being replenished and constantly being consumed, he was finally defeated by the combined power of Sun Fei and the Throne of Destruction.

All of this was full of chance and coincidence. It can only be said that Reus was destined to die. If it happened again, Sun Fei would not be able to defeat his opponent at all. If any link in the chain had gone wrong, the person who would have embraced death would have been Sun Fei.

Fortunately, Sun Fei's gains after this battle were also quite remarkable.
