2492 Primal Kingdom's Action, Grim Reaper, Primal Phoenix
Everyone in the Sword Universe stared at the lifeless Sword Overlord's body, which had a hole in his chest, floating in space.
They were speechless and shocked.
Just like that, the Sword Overlord was killed in Chu Kuangren's hands.
Chu Kuangren did not even show up.
Only his sword and his sword intent appeared, and despite being universes away, he killed an Overlord!
"He has grown so strong…" the Divine Sword Palace Ruler murmured.
The past grudges he had against Chu Kuangren no longer mattered because he was truly grateful for Chu Kuangren's help to save the Sword Universe and the people in it.
After the Descendant Self Sword killed the Sword Overlord, it transformed into a stream of light and flew away into the universal void.
Then, the Sword Overlord's body disintegrated into countless Great Dao shards that scattered across the universe, allowing the entire universe to recover rapidly.
On top of that, the fall of an Overlord would produce countless more opportunities and vitality for the Sword Universe.
Back in the Pan Gu Kingdom, Chu Kuangren pondered after he sensed the fall of the Sword Overlord.
Then, he reached out to the void and grabbed the Descendant Self Sword that had flown back from the Sword Universe.
"Nicely done."
He did not go to the Sword Universe himself because, as ruler of the Pan Gu Kingdom, he could not leave since the Primal Kingdom had started to make its move.
The invasion of the Sword Universe was only the first of many moves the Primal Kingdom had in plan.
More invasions would happen frequently in the future.
The Primal Kingdom's purpose was to revert the universe to its primal state, and to achieve that, they would first be to annihilate all life and universes.
They had started to take the first step toward their goal.
…
In a certain universe, a black-robed figure traversed the vast starry space.
The figure's aura felt extremely strange and dead. All lively planets he passed by withered and deteriorated rapidly before dying out completely.
Countless living beings died under his influence as if he were death himself or the god that controlled death.
"All life ends with death. Death is eternal, and death is the true beauty," the black-robed figure said sentimentally.
Suddenly, another figure appeared before him.
The man was a Monarch with amazing powers and the strongest cultivator of the universe.
He looked at the figure in black coldly. "You're the one spreading death. Who are you? Why are you doing this?"
"Death is the only resting place for all life, mortals and gods alike. No one can escape their fate. I'm just making it quicker for them," the man in black said with a chuckle.
"Nonsense. The life and death of all living beings are fixed. Who are you to simply toy with them?"
The Monarch grunted and then jumped onto the man in black.
He threw a palm strike forward, containing earth-shattering Daoist law energy.
"Sigh. Even a Monarch cannot understand the truth of death."
The man in black sighed.
He grabbed into the void, and the death energy around him formed a black scythe that he swung at the void.
The scythe did not touch the Monarch, but the Monarch stopped attacking because his body was cut in half, and the life in him faded rapidly.
The top Monarch was killed in just a blink of an eye.
The man in black then dispersed his scythe and continued spreading death across the universe. With his speed, it would take him just a few years to kill off the entire universe.
Suddenly, he stopped and stared ahead with a baffled look.
The void ahead of him started to distort.
A frosty rage qi gushed out from the distortion before a figure emerged proudly.
He wielded a spear and had a pagoda above his head. His Immortal Sparks shone across the entire universe.
"Grim Reaper of the Primal Kingdom, I have found you."
The man looked at the man in black, his domineering aura overpowering the realm. He was countless times stronger than the Monarch earlier.
Grim Reaper, one of the Nine Honors, was second only to the God Emperor.
He looked at the person with narrowed eyes. "God of war of the human race, Shen Qixue, are you here to stop me? What a surprise. I thought it would be Chu Kuangren."
"The ruler is not needed to deal with you."
If Chu Kuangren had to deal with every enemy, they could just surrender and kill themselves together.
"Chu Kuangren is not here. You think you're strong enough to stop death?" Grim Reaper said.
Shen Qixue was powerful, but as the strongest Nine Honor, Grim Reaper was more powerful.
"In that case, count me in as well."
A frosty voice sounded from the void.
An iron-blooded and tyrannical aura came, followed by the arrival of a beautiful and valiant lady who strutted out proudly.
Her presence was fierce like an empress.
Grim Reaper narrowed his eyes on the woman. "You're… an Overlord? A new Overlord? If I'm correct, you should be the Tempest King."
He knew the Pan Gu Kingdom well enough to know that other than the Devil King and Shen Qixue, the newer generation cultivators should not be underestimated as well.
The Tempest King was one of the brightest young ones.
With the Source Crystals Chu Kuangren brought back, the Tempest King had successfully broken through to the Overlord Realm.
In addition to her talents and powers, she managed to master multiple Great Daos when she ascended. She could almost rival a Primal God on her own now.
Together with Shen Qixue, even the powerful Grim Reaper had to take it seriously.
"I see. Bring it on."
…
In another universe, a ball of flame wreaked havoc and burned everything in its way.
"Burn! Burn to ashes! I will turn the Infiniverse into a scorched land to welcome the emperor!"
It was Primal Flame, and the universe was not equipped to resist the powers of a Primal God.
Suddenly, a sharp phoenix cry sounded, and a golden-red Phoenix Flame appeared to resist the Primal Flame's flame.
Primal Flame narrowed his eyes. "Pan Gu Kingdom?"
Chu Hong stood before the Primal God with her spear while engulfed in Phoenix Flame. Her aura could rival a common Overlord.
"Ancient Godly Phoenix's vitality qi. It seems like your bloodline is extremely close to the Primal Phoenix."
Primal Phoenix was also a Primal God, similar to the Primal Infernal Dragon.
Chu Hong's bloodline had gone through a lot of training to reach that height.
However, Primal Flame was unafraid. He said scornfully, "You're not even an Overlord. How are you going to stop me?"
"Who said I'm the one who will stop you?" Chu Hong grinned.
At that moment, a stronger Phoenix Flame erupted behind her, and a beautiful Godly Phoenix soared into the sky. Her flames engulfed the entire universe.
"Primal Flame, I did not expect you to be my first opponent after I awaken."
"Primal Phoenix!"
Primal Flame was shocked.
The Godly Phoenix that appeared before him was one of the Primal Gods.
"You're not dead?"
"Godly Phoenixes cannot die. The power of rebirth is more profound than you think."
Primal Phoenix sounded imposing and carried herself elegantly as if she were a noble lady.
