Reaper of the Martial World

Book 12: Chapter 133: Nameless (3)

The reality of things after this matter was quite anti-climactic. The Nameless Immortal God all but disappeared from the minds of many. He was too powerful for his old enemies to thoughtlessly provoke him without good reason, and he stayed out of the public eye.

A lot of people thought that this was because he had lost his edge, but the truth of the matter was that he had been spending the last moments of his wife’s life by her side.

While he had become a great Immortal God, however she had failed to take the last step. Due to the aphrodisiac she had been poisoned with in her youth, her foundation had been harmed. The man had been too late to react to the situation, causing his wife to have to run away on her own in the beginning. As a result, she didn’t receive the yang of a man in a timely fashion causing her primordial yin and the core of her talent to be harmed.

In the end, she grew old and eventually passed away. On the day she breathed her last breath, a mournful cry that shattered a star segment resounded through the skies.

Blade in hand, the Nameless Immortal God stepped through the skies, slowly walking toward the Kitsune Hegemon. The blade in his hand was his wife’s first sword. In truth, it had been many years since he last used a sword, not to mention a lowly venerable grade weapon at that. Yet, with nothing but this sword in hand, he started a bloody slaughter.

There were 8 catastrophes that surpassed the tier 9 void surges on the immortal plane. These 8 catastrophes each followed the deaths of 8 women. Every time it occurred, a Hegemon would fall.

The third woman he fell for was a delicate beauty of the Fire Spirit Hegemon. She had a fiery personality and it was said that her first interaction with the Nameless Immortal God was scolding him for being heartless and killing so many innocents all for one woman.

She attempted to fight him to the death but lost. When she should have been breathing her last breaths, she admitted that she had simply been jealous. It turned out that she had once been a disciple of the blossom hegemon he happened to spare. But due to the fact he swore never to even piss on one of their disciples, she left the hegemon and suffered the pursuit of a traitor.

It was said that the Nameless Immortal God did all he could to save her from the damage he himself inflicted, but she only managed to live a few more centuries. It was during that time that he learned that the flame spirit hegemon learned of her past with the blossom hegemon and forced her to attack him. They had believed that she could take advantage of his vulnerable heart and assassinate him, but they had no idea how deep the imprint he had on her was…

Upon her death, another mournful howl sounded… And soon after, it was the blossom hegemon and the flame spirit hegemon that fell beneath his rage…

It was said that after this, the Nameless Immortal God became a normal man. He wanted to heed the words of his third wife and not kill so wantonly anymore. It was during this time that he met his fourth wife.

Maybe it was due to fate, but this was a woman who loved slaughter. She was a member of the angel hegemon and lived for blood and war. It should have been impossible for the two of them to come together. At this point in their lives, they were simply too different.

However, it was exactly this that brought them together. The man realized just how naïve he was. He simply had too much hatred in his heart.

He tried to live vicariously through her and eventually grew attached. This time, there was no subterfuge, no hidden schemes, no enemy of the past… She simply died of old age… He could only watch as she withered away, fading away with time.

That was when it hit him. He thought that now, since he was so powerful, he would never have to suffer through that pain again. He could destroy hegemons with a thought. He walked through the plane unmatched. So why was it that his wife still died?

He lost his mind to rage.

It was unknown how many died in this fourth tragedy. He simply became a machine of slaughter. But, it was under these circumstances that he met the fifth woman who stirred his heart. She was a part of the Mind’s Eye Hegemon. It was only her, who could control all the energies of the world, who was able to seal the baleful energies that had intoxicated his mind.

However, she too died.

It was then he met his sixth. It was only her who could see through his pain and sorrow, it was only her who could read his emotions and feel his pain. She didn’t fear him like the rest of the immortal plane did.

But she died as well.

When matters reached this point, the immortal plane was at a loss for what to do. It seemed that only a woman he truly loved could calm his rage. But when she inevitably died due to the course of nature, there would be a price to pay regardless.

It was impossible to allow things to continue like this. The Nameless Immortal God had to be killed. It didn’t matter how many Immortal Gods it took… He had to fall…

It wouldn’t be long before he earned his second name.
