Chapter 1355 685: Killing You Is the Champion's Deed—What Does It Have to Do with My Emperor's Fall? (2)
This kind of damage... against an output of this magnitude, any damage reduction is completely useless to keep him alive.
He's dead for sure!
Is this the power of a Chaos Chosen? But he was clearly supposed to be my ally, the blade to strike down the Variable together with me!
Why? Why the hell? Are you out of your mind?
Kuixu Walker was unwilling, the sheer intensity of that unwillingness drove him to burn his Divinity at any cost.
At the very instant death descended, he abandoned everything and retreated; his legs, his waist, were shredded by spatial rifts, yet nothing could stop his urge to flee.
It wasn't death he feared, but that before death arrived, he wanted to use his last strength, in the Void Realm, to call out to his own teammates. As an Overlord, the range of his Spiritual Energy projection was enormous; his companions would definitely hear.
'The one who kills me is Emperor's Fall!'
He didn't know why Emperor's Fall would do this, but there had to be something wrong; he had to tell his comrades, have them pass it on to the Book Holder, and to higher-ranked walkers!
Emperor's Fall is an enemy!
Then, he despairingly discovered that everything he had done was in vain.
Because those scarlet thorns had already become a firmament, a sky-curtain that completely locked down both him and his transmission.
That was a Secret Treasure researched by their Heavenly Destiny Walkers, that was what the Book Holder had gifted them... the Heaven and Earth Cage!
The Secret Treasure they themselves developed had become his final tomb!
At this moment, only half of Kuixu Walker's body remained, his Spiritual Energy flickering like a candle in the wind.
He still had countless methods, several powerful Secret Treasures, a large number of fate deduction results....
Every top-tier walker was chosen by the Book of Destiny.
Selected from that River of Destiny...
Thus, from childhood he had ample Talent and sufficient resources, formulas free to choose, inheritances to pick at will; his Talent had already been fully forged into strength!
Even facing an Overlord from the Forbidden Zone or Giant City, he still had a very high chance of victory.
Yet... all of it, because of that despicable ambush, he didn't even get the chance to act before he was about to die...
Suffocated, unwilling, confused, at a loss, and full of hatred!
On the brink of death, he strained to turn his head, the blood-blurred sockets of his eyes staring fixedly at Li Yelai.
"Why... Emperor's Fall, why? What the fuck are you after? Are you sick in the head? You kill me, what the fuck do you gain? The Secret Treasures on me? Or my Mysterious Material? You're fucking insane! When you Ascend Demon, did Chaos Power turn your brain into a cream puff?"
"Without me, who's going to guide you? Who'll negotiate for you? Fucking lunatic! Did you get duped by Deceit?"
He truly was furious; he had such lofty ideals, such an important mission. And now he was about to die here without even knowing why.
He refused to accept such an ending!
Kuixu Walker's projection roared in impotent rage: "You think that just because you killed me, my companions won't notice? When Lord Wei Yang arrives, that will be your deathday! Killing a Divine Chosen is no big deal at all!"
"What are you talking about?" Li Yelai's tone was flat, the massive Golden Dharma Image dissipating. He walked toward Kuixu Walker and said, "The one who killed you is the Ninth Generation Champion. What does that have to do with me, Emperor's Fall of the Four Gods' Choice?"
"Four Gods..." Kuixu Walker froze, then burst into angry laughter: "Idiot! Pinning everything on the Champion is just the story we prepared for those Forbidden Zone Nobles. It was so you wouldn't form a blood feud with them, so I could mediate! You kill me, then who's left to keep lying to them for you?"
"You think my companions will believe what you say? We have plenty of ways to verify truth and lies!"
That was the truth; they did indeed have corresponding methods, at the very least they could divine who he had died to.
Then he fell silent, a deathly silence.
Because the disguise on Li Yelai's body was dissipating at this moment, the Conical Hat was taken off, his Spiritual Energy Fluctuation no longer masked.
The Cloak slipped away, his form returning to its original state.
A Scarlet Cloak, red as blood and seemingly woven from the wails of countless enemies of Humanity, suddenly unfurled upon his shoulders!
That was the purest proof of a Human Hero, the Champion's glory condensed from slaying countless great foes!
Rampant, pure, suffused with iron and blood and an Unyielding Will—the Blood Evil Energy of a Human Champion!
Like a tangible storm surge of rage, it exploded, instantly filling the entire Heaven and Earth Cage!
"I told you, the one killing you," Li Yelai came to stand before Kuixu Walker, coldly gazing down at him, "is the Human Champion!"
"Champion..." Kuixu Walker could only stare in disbelief...
Emperor's Fall... Champion... actually...
The Chaos Chosen Emperor's Fall was actually the Ninth Generation Champion, that damned Variable?
No? How is that possible?
Wasn't he the Copper Face on the ark? Wasn't he Chaos's Divine Chosen, how could he be the Human Champion?
No! Impossible!
He was clearly the ark's Copper Face!
He was Chaos's Divine Chosen Emperor Fall!
He was the chess piece ordained in the Book Holder's Book of Destiny!
How could... how could he be the Human Champion?!
Fake! It must be fake! An illusion! A scam!
Right, he said he was the Four Chaos Gods' Choice, this must be a conspiracy of Deceit!
How could the Chaos Gods possibly cast their gaze upon a Human Champion?
If he is the Human Champion... then all the plans aimed at him beforehand were known to him, weren't they? Some of them even told to him directly by the Book Holder.
And that assassin from just now... was that Jiang Ling, the Blade of Revenge who would suppress Forbidden Zone powerhouses' growth in the future and be betrayed and dismembered in the end?
They... had known about this plan long ago, and had crafted a counter-scheme for it.
No... this is a trap!
The Book Holder... the Book of Destiny... that supreme existence who peers into the River of Destiny.
How could such an absurd, world-overturning... mistake occur?
Fuck! We've been played like dogs by this Variable!
His world, his faith, everything he had fought for—in this instant, along with that glaring Scarlet Cloak, completely collapsed.
"Aaaahhhhh!" Kuixu Walker roared, "Li Yelai! You enemy of Humanity, the greatest sin in this world! You will die without a doubt!"
"So not walking along the destiny path you people plotted out is a crime now?" Li Yelai said indifferently. "Then I truly am... guilty as hell. There are too many destinies you hammered into place that I've altered. Disaster Fog No. 71, the Immortal Palace Battlefield, Disaster Fog No. 49, and... the Nether River... I took part fiercely in all of them. Altered your so-called fate, and let more people live."
"Bastard!" Kuixu Walker howled, "What do you know? This is for the future of this world, they are all necessary sacrifices! Their sacrifice will forge more powerhouses! If the blood and screams of a million mortals can water a single King strong enough to shoulder Humanity's future... isn't that worth it?! Their deaths are the foundation stones of the future! The fuel that forges glory! They are all necessary sacrifices! Beast, and you, you disrupted it all!"
"Necessary sacrifices..." Li Yelai looked down at Kuixu Walker. "Does that include my parents, and the countless Human compatriots who died unjustly, fated by a casual stroke of your Book of Destiny to die in despair and confusion?"
"Yes... all of it is for this world! It's all for Humanity!" Kuixu Walker's lingering will let out a dying wail, "Li Yelai! You are Humanity's Champion! You're regarded as Humanity's Hero! If that's the case..."
His will suddenly surged, carrying a madness that bordered on pleading: "Then I beg you! For the future of this world! For Humanity's ultimate destiny!"
"Please just go die!!"
"Let your blood become the final foundation stone! Let your soul become the kindling that sets things right! Let this world return to the track it should be on!"
"Don't keep making mistake after mistake! Die, die! Hurry up and die!!!"
Li Yelai raised his long spear, switching to the Deceit Dao and Da Yi Face Mask.
"For the rest of my life, I'll use my full power to shatter the fate you've drawn up! Your Book of Destiny will become toilet paper!"
The long spear fell—Instant Death!
Kuixu Walker's Soul Well exploded with a roar.
In his current condition, even self-detonating his Soul Well couldn't inflict any effective damage on Li Yelai.
But he needed to use that power to fully inform his companions.
Once he died, the Heaven and Earth Cage would disperse, and then his Spiritual Energy echo could inform his comrades.
"Emperor's Fall is the Champion!!!!"
Then he died...
And almost at the same time, the Heaven and Earth Cage began to vanish, the Array that blocked everything was being dismantled.
However, Li Yelai, having activated the Deceitful God's Chosen Mask, lifted his hand slightly.
Deceit Dao intervened in the Heaven and Earth Cage's Array, mobilizing the power that isolated the outside world.
It partially severed Kuixu Walker's final words.
Thus, Kuixu Walker's last roar echoed through the Void Realm.
"Champion!"
