Chapter 332: Chapter 317: Revenge (Part 2)
"You... it’s you!" Black Scythe Celestial God stared intently at Wang Xu. Countless images flashed through his mind, and finally, he exclaimed, "You are Wang Xu, the genius disciple of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion!"
"Looks like you haven’t forgotten." Wang Xu sneered, his voice brimming with murderous intent.
For those who wanted his life, Wang Xu would never forget. Even if it was just a glance, they remained an indelible presence in his heart.
Back then, with the help of the Law Enforcement Elder of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, Wang Xu was preparing to return and hide in the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion to evade the Dark Holy Banquet’s assassination. Right at the entrance of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion in the Desolate Fire Cosmic Country, more than ten Celestial God Realm powerhouses from the Dark Holy Banquet suddenly rushed out and attacked Wang Xu directly.
The overwhelming power, the thrill of brushing past death—Wang Xu still finds it unforgettable to this day.
If not for the arrangements made by the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, ordering a Celestial God realm disciple to guard, Wang Xu might have long turned into a wandering spirit.
The Black Scythe Celestial God before him was recognized by Wang Xu at first sight as one of those who besieged him back then from the Dark Holy Banquet’s Celestial Gods.
"You are Wang Xu... how is it possible, in just a hundred years, your power has reached the Celestial God realm!" Black Scythe Celestial God was shocked.
At the time of the ambush, Wang Xu’s power was barely at the Mixed Universe Realm, and even an ordinary Celestial God realm could kill him. Yet in less than a hundred years, he had advanced to the Celestial God realm... Even for a genius, it typically takes tens of thousands of years to step into such a realm!
But Wang Xu had broken convention and at unimaginable speed leaped into the Celestial God realm, even surpassing many genius Celestial God realm figures.
"Haha... Kid, I didn’t expect you to have such a good rapport, knowing people wherever you go!" Laughed the Star Giant Beast, larger than the stars.
"This Star Giant Beast... formidable, overwhelmingly powerful, I’m no match for it, there’s not even a slim chance of victory!" Black Scythe Celestial God felt a strand of life aura emitted by Lei Fan, and just that strand caused his heart to tremble.
Not just Black Scythe Celestial God, but all the Dark Holy Banquet people below were trembling, the life level of the Eternal Generations Celestial Gods was too overwhelmingly higher than theirs. These Dark Holy Banquet people didn’t even count as Celestial God realm, akin to ants facing a dragon in front of Lei Fan, not even on the same level.
Qingqi Sovereign and others were also stunned, their gazes flickering uncertainly. These uninvited guests each possessed incredibly powerful strength, were they foes or friends?
"Wang Xu, even if your strength has grown, so what? In front of the omnipotent Banquet, you are just an ant, ready to humbly embrace death!" Black Scythe Celestial God suppressed his panic, his face fierce, voice filled with heavy threat, while in his sleeve, his hand quietly crushed a black token.
"Heh heh heh, just wait, the King will arrive soon, and once he appears, none of you will escape, haha!" Black Scythe Celestial God, after crushing the token, seemed assured, laughing arrogantly.
Black Scythe Celestial God personally witnessed the power of the King, one strike was enough to destroy a Star Domain, terrifying to the extreme... The reason the National Hall of Stone Sting Cosmic Country was obliterated so quickly was due to the King, the Sovereign of Stone Sting being utterly powerless before him!
"King? Are you talking about the guy about twenty meters tall, with three arms, wielding a blue Trident?" Lei Fan inquired.
Black Scythe Celestial God’s eyes brightened, sneering he replied, "Exactly, you must have seen the King then, you must know how powerful he is, knowing that, why not surrender quietly? If you wish to become one of my Banquet’s members, perhaps you might avoid death!"
Black Scythe Celestial God had a blind fervor and worship for the King. In his view, the King was the strongest, unmatched existence. Once the King appears, these people would surely be smashed into pieces!
"Oh, so that guy is the King of your Dark Holy Banquet."
As Lei Fan spoke, his star-sized body shifted, shrinking down to several tens of meters, still maintaining the form of the Nine Extremes Celestial Burial Beast.
He stretched his hand to grab a figure about twenty meters tall, with three arms, his body covered in blood, and in tatters, holding it in his hand, already completely devoid of life.
Seeing this figure, Black Scythe Celestial God’s sneering expression froze instantly, his eyes widened further, falling into an uncontrollable terror, shaking all over...
King... It truly was the King!
How could it be, how could this happen! The King was invincible, the King was the strongest, how could he already be dead, and even be caught in that person’s hand!
"So that’s why this guy was so arrogant, turned out your Dark Holy Banquet’s King, as you said from the start, thought himself a god, I thought he was strong, scared me so much I just slapped him to death with a claw. " Lei Fan remarked, and then, he tossed the body of the King, whom Black Scythe Celestial God revered as the greatest and most irreplaceable, right into his mouth!
"Hmm... Must say, your King is quite tasty."
Lei Fan said as he chewed, Black Scythe Celestial God felt as if struck by lightning, his face pale as paper, no amount of black smoke covering him could hide his fear and trembling.
Wang Xu and the others had just returned to the Ancient Luo Cosmos, noticing the signs of a great battle in the star domain they were in. In search of a teleportation array to return to the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, the trio entered the Stone Sting Cosmic Country.
By then, the Stone Sting Cosmic Country had long been reduced to ruins by war, star debris floating everywhere.
The King, who had just conquered Stone Sting Cosmic Country, discovered them, intending to kill them as well, but this King underestimated Lei Fan’s power. Surviving all those years in barren lands, opposing Cosmic Law, his strength was evident.
Though it wasn’t exactly as Lei Fan claimed, having crushed the King with a strike, after a fierce battle, the King couldn’t resist, attempted to flee, but no speed could surpass Lei Fan’s, who was naturally attuned to the Law of Void.
In the end, because King had burnt his Divine Country, even self-destruction was impossible, resulting in his despairing demise at the hands of Lei Fan.
Afterward, the three went on a slaughter spree, attacking any Dark Holy Banquet members they saw without a word, Lei Fan devoured them all, reaching the Qingqi Cosmic Country.
"Senior Lei Fan, I’m grateful for your help. Let me handle this person." Wang Xu looked at Black Scythe Celestial God and said.
"Kid, you owe me a favor!" Lei Fan laughed heartily, darting behind the Dark Holy Banquet people, his massive jaws opened wide, swallowing all the members instantly.
Black Scythe Celestial God’s legs went weak at the sight, and he nearly collapsed to the ground.
"Go!"
Wang Xu wasted no words, seven Sword Body Fragments condensed, forming the Black Dragon Array, roaring furiously as it charged straight at the Black Scythe Celestial God!
"No... no... I’m not willing to give up, even if I die, I will kill you!" In utter despair, Black Scythe Celestial God chose to explode.
"Pfft!" However, in the face of Black Scythe Celestial God’s resistance, the seven Sword Body Fragments penetrated his body irresistibly!
With Wang Xu’s current strength, dealing with a minor Elite Initial Celestial God was simple enough. Black Scythe Celestial God roared, shrieked, and bellowed in unwillingness, desperately resisting, even contemplating self-destruction.
But Wang Xu gave him no chance to get close, forcibly weakening Black Scythe Celestial God’s Celestial God Body, and finally directly shattering his Divine Country, extinguishing his life essence.
"Lei Fan, you can have his corpse." Wang Xu stripped Black Scythe Celestial God’s Space Ring and handed the corpse to Lei Fan.
"No problem!" Lei Fan was eager to devour, as the Nine Extremes Celestial Burial Beast, the more flesh and blood he consumed, the stronger he became.
Wang Xu had completed his revenge, and Black Scythe Celestial God was just the first. He would keep eliminating the enemies who had hunted him down in the past!
"Let’s go!"
After dealing with all the people of the Dark Holy Banquet, Wang Xu and the other two left without looking back, and by the time the Qingqi Sovereign and others reacted, Lei Fan’s figure had already vanished over the horizon.
The people of Qingqi Cosmic Country were stunned, unable to believe that a disaster that nearly destroyed the Cosmic Country had subsided just like that?
But none of that mattered anymore. What mattered was that the Qingqi citizens were still alive, and Qingqi Cosmic Country still existed!
...
Setting off from Qingqi Cosmic Country, Wang Xu and the others wandered around three nearby Great Cosmic Countries, also wiping out the people of the Dark Holy Banquet.
The three Great Cosmic Countries had originally been struggling, as the army of the Dark Holy Banquet was too fierce, led by powerful Hundred Generations Celestial Gods, against whom they had no defense, forcing them to retreat to their Main Stars and activate the Main Star Defense Array, resorting to passive defense.
This approach was tantamount to waiting for death, yet there was no better way to escape the war.
However, just as the Hundred Generations Celestial Gods of the Dark Holy Banquet launched a fierce attack, a massive Star Giant Beast silhouette suddenly appeared behind one, opening its bloody maw and swallowing him whole!
Everyone was dumbfounded, having no idea what had just happened, only seeing all the Dark Holy Banquet people being swallowed by this Star Giant Beast without exception, as if it were hunting for food.
"There’s a Space-Time Teleportation Platform here!" The three found an undamaged Space-Time Teleportation Platform, and Wang Xu stepped forward to inspect it, his eyes suddenly brightening.
This Space-Time Teleportation Platform was connected with Tai Long!
"Lei Fan, shall we head to Tai Long Cosmic Country first?" Wang Xu sought Lei Fan’s opinion, as he was the most powerful among them.
"Is it close to the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion?" Lei Fan asked.
"At least closer than we are now."
"Then let’s go!"
Subsequently, the three stepped onto the Space-Time Teleportation Platform, a blinding light flashed, and the three figures disappeared without a trace.
...
Tai Long Cosmic Country.
"Sovereign, three more large Star Domains have been overtaken by Yanyue."
In the Tai Long Palace, the figure of the Tai Long Sovereign sat upright, with a solemn and dignified expression. Despite appearing vigorous, his eyes harbored deep exhaustion.
Since the Dark Holy Banquet launched the "Universe War," it had only been a few months, yet the entire cosmos was affected.
Tai Long, naturally, was no exception.
However, the one waging war on Tai Long wasn’t the Dark Holy Banquet but Tai Long’s arch-enemy—the Yanyue Cosmic Country.
In the previous wager, after Yanyue lost to Tai Long, they begrudgingly handed over the national statue. For this, Yanyue Zhe gritted his teeth in hatred of Tai Long.
This time, with the Dark Holy Banquet launching the Universe War, Yanyue Cosmic Country, witnessing the immense power of the Dark Holy Banquet, resolutely chose to side with them and actively applied to wage war against Tai Long.
