Chapter 2405 - 2406: Di Shi Tian, Die!!

Chapter 2405: Chapter 2406: Di Shi Tian, Die!!

The dazzling light fades, and finally, colors appear before everyone’s eyes.

People are shocked by the terrifying clash of supreme-level beings; even at the far outer edge of the battlefield, thousands of miles away, the energy of the battle was still affecting them.

If one were within it, they would likely turn to dust in an instant.

Of course, now everyone is concerned about the outcome of this duel.

Did Di Shi Tian kill the Blood Demon Ancestor, or did the Blood Demon Ancestor win in the end?

No one dared to get close, for if the Blood Demon Ancestor were still alive, he would certainly absorb the energy of others to restore himself.

People could only watch from afar, gazing at the final result of this clash.

"The Heavenly Emperor has won, the Heavenly Emperor has won!"

Someone exclaimed, and upon hearing this, many people sighed in relief. Comparatively, it’s better for Di Shi Tian to survive. If the Blood Demon Ancestor were to live, they could become his nourishment and face the fate of being killed. Di Shi Tian, on the other hand, didn’t have a penchant for absorbing others’ life forces.

At the center of the battlefield.

Di Shi Tian’s staggering figure almost fell; his face was pale, and his attire was no longer as glamorous as it had been, becoming tattered.

At this moment, Di Shi Tian was not concerned about this but was scanning around for the presence of the Blood Demon Ancestor.

Is he dead?

Finding no trace of the Blood Demon Ancestor’s presence, Di Shi Tian couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood. The self-explosion power of the Blood Demon Ancestor couldn’t be avoided and wounded him.

On Di Shi Tian’s shoulder, a long-unhealed fissure could be seen, with a bloody force entwined within, preventing Di Shi Tian from healing the wound.

He now has no strength left to dispel this force; he can only wait until he recovers certain powers to repair all the damage to his body.

Since the Blood Demon Ancestor is dead, Di Shi Tian doesn’t need to worry about this dangerous character anymore. Otherwise, he would have to be constantly vigilant against a supreme-level expert stalking him, which is no easy task even at the same realm.

Just as Di Shi Tian relaxed slightly, he suddenly turned sharply.

Right behind him, stood the Blood Demon Ancestor, coldly smiling at him.

Not dead!

Di Shi Tian was startled, and the Blood Demon Ancestor immediately launched his surprise attack, pressing his palm directly onto Di Shi Tian’s back.

Poof!

The Blood Demon Ancestor laughed, "Did you really think I would truly self-destruct? Remember to be smarter in your next life."

It turns out, the Blood Demon Ancestor’s previous self-detonation was not just a suicidal attack. Though its power was formidable, at its core, it was merely a ruse, a means to deceive his opponent.

Catching his opponent off-guard as they relax their vigilance, was his true strategy.

Just like what happened earlier, he aimed to catch the opponent entirely unprepared.

The Blood Demon Ancestor successfully deceived Di Shi Tian, unleashing a strike that shattered Di Shi Tian’s body.

However, the Blood Demon Ancestor’s joy lasted only a few seconds, as his laughter abruptly choked off when he dazedly turned around and saw Di Shi Tian’s face.

"Did you create a false version of yourself?" Blood Demon Ancestor murmured.

"Just an avatar created from the blood sea," Di Shi Tian replied blandly. And at this moment, the Di Shi Tian before the Blood Demon Ancestor turned into a pool of blood; it wasn’t Di Shi Tian’s true body.

Di Shi Tian’s blood sea still retained a portion, not entirely depleted, used at the critical moment as an avatar to divert the Blood Demon Ancestor’s attention.

Indeed, the Blood Demon Ancestor wasn’t dead, and he launched a surprise attack.

Di Shi Tian, as the lord of the Heavenly Palace, has been reigning for many years, with a meticulous mind, naturally remaining vigilant, especially when facing a foe of Blood Demon Ancestor’s caliber.

A person planning to resurrect through cultivation techniques, Di Shi Tian had already suffered once, so he learned his lesson and couldn’t fall for the Blood Demon Ancestor’s tricks again. Thus, after the Blood Demon Ancestor’s self-detonation, he quickly hid, creating an avatar from the blood sea.

Both Di Shi Tian and the Blood Demon Ancestor are crafty individuals; otherwise, they would’ve never survived and achieved such prowess.

Their showdown was not just a simple contest of power, but also a clash of intellect.

Now, the curtain finally falls, with Di Shi Tian holding the winning hand, ultimately luring out the true form of the Blood Demon Ancestor, completing the magnificent counter-kill.

"I will return!"

The Blood Demon Ancestor’s body started to shatter, then turned into fine sand, dissolving into the world.

This time, the Blood Demon Ancestor is truly dead. The previous self-destruction was merely of the blood sea rather than his actual self—but now, he is truly dead.

Unless someday in the future, someone like Di Shi Tian practices the Blood Demon Technique, there may be a chance to awaken the Blood Demon Ancestor, allowing him to live again.

Finally having truly slain the Blood Demon Ancestor, Di Shi Tian sat on the ground, exhausted.

He succeeded, slaying an ancient-level supreme being, and the Du Gu clan has completely disappeared from history. Now, both the homeland and the universe will be written by him, Di Shi Tian.

Di Shi Tian couldn’t help but smile as he envisioned the future version of himself, invincible across the cosmos.

He has already reached the supreme realm; such a scene isn’t far off.

It is within reach!

Thinking of this, Di Shi Tian’s heart is filled with joy, "I, Di Shi Tian, am the master of the universe, the only living god in this world."

While Di Shi Tian imagines the future, a shadow appears behind him.

Splosh!

A splash of blood spurted from Di Shi Tian’s chest, as a longsword pierced through his torso.

The sword appeared so fast that Di Shi Tian didn’t even have time to react before being hit.

Di Shi Tian turned to see another face—of someone he thought should be dead in his consciousness.

"You were pretending to be dead?" Di Shi Tian stared at Ye Qiu.

"Weren’t you doing the same just now?" Ye Qiu smiled.

By implication, Ye Qiu had witnessed the encounter between Di Shi Tian and the Blood Demon Ancestor.

"Unexpectedly, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind; I turned out to be the mantis." Di Shi Tian’s smile turned cold.

"Doesn’t feel good to fail just before success, does it?" Ye Qiu replied.

"Unfortunately, I still underestimated you. Otherwise, the one alive would definitely be me," Di Shi Tian sighed.

Ye Qiu smiled without saying a word, for he agreed with Di Shi Tian’s statement. If Di Shi Tian had paid enough attention to him or guessed he was alive, the outcome might not have been this, at least Di Shi Tian wouldn’t have fought the Blood Demon Ancestor to the death.

Ultimately, Di Shi Tian was still careless, not taking Ye Qiu seriously enough.

Of course, he hadn’t expected the Blood Demon Ancestor hadn’t actually killed Ye Qiu.

"I should avenge the Du Gu clan’s enmity; today, I’ll use your blood to commemorate those who died!"

Saying this, the Bahuang Sword trembled once more and Di Shi Tian’s body was torn apart.

With the departure of Di Shi Tian’s soul, the six gates had long been prepared, with countless withered hands simultaneously grabbing Di Shi Tian, pulling him into the six gates.

Swish!

A blindingly bright light flashed, and a massive soul orb fell out, landing in Ye Qiu’s hands.
