Volume One: The Devil's Nature Never Changes
Arc: Ascension to the Second Dimension
At terrifying speed, Scarlet King appeared in front of Long Wei and struck him with enough force to shatter the surrounding space-time.
Long Wei regained his balance and thought:
(Damn you, Gu Yue…)
(But once we left the six Eternal Universes, he became stronger.)
(That means his strength was being suppressed inside the Eternal Universes because of the observers…)
(In that case, I'll force him back there so I can defeat him.)
When Scarlet King appeared in front of him again, Long Wei grabbed him and punched him directly in the face.
Then he seized Scarlet King by the legs, flipped him upside down, and hurled him toward the six universes with all his strength.
Afterward, Long Wei raised both arms and gathered crimson energy with a yellow glow at its core.
Inside Scarlet King, Long Tian Yue was shocked.
As Long Wei's body swelled, Long Tian Yue thought:
(That's the energy of a Western Dragon!)
(That means pure destruction—one of the strongest forms of destructive power!)
(He isn't an Eastern Dragon!)
(Damn it, Scarlet King is in danger!)
Long Wei roared:
"Take this, you bastard!!!"
The attack shot toward Scarlet King.
Its aura alone was so overwhelming that the sheer pressure forced Scarlet King to stop.
Scarlet King did not hesitate.
Long Tian Yue immediately noticed that the Dragon Scales within Scarlet King's body had activated.
Three Dragon Scales activated to reinforce his physique.
At the same time, the Qilin Leg activated and began glowing yellow, while the Dragon Scales shone green.
The Qilin Leg granted him additional physical reinforcement to withstand the incoming attack.
Scarlet King also partially merged with the Titan King Transformation.
The attack struck him.
An overwhelming shockwave erupted.
Billions of nearby universes were affected.
Millions were erased completely.
Scarlet King was launched toward the Eternal Universes at Third-Rank Absolute Immeasurable Speed.
He crashed into the ground and shattered it, plunging into a crater several kilometers deep.
Long Wei laughed madly and rushed toward the Eternal Universes to continue the battle.
Meanwhile, Scarlet King was in miserable condition.
A large portion of his body had been severely damaged.
Nothing remained of the left side of his shoulder except scorched bone.
Part of his face had been completely burned away.
His hand was heavily damaged as well.
"Damn it."
"Even with all those defenses, that attack was overwhelmingly powerful."
"If I hadn't used the additional defenses, I might have died if he had successfully erased my body."
"My estimates of his true strength were wrong."
Within seconds, Scarlet King completely regenerated his body.
However, even after regeneration, the previously damaged parts remained weaker than the untouched portions of his body.
They would need some time to recover their full strength.
Scarlet King straightened his body.
Then he jumped upward—
piercing through the ground as he emerged.
He stood before Long Wei, who had already entered the northern Eternal Universe.
Long Wei thought:
(What a powerful body…)
(Even after taking my strongest attack—an attack capable of killing someone at the eighth level of the Beginning of Path Realm—he came out with nothing more than minor injuries.)
The two stood facing one another.
Long Wei's expression had become calmer.
Scarlet King's expression, however, had grown more tense.
Then—
a voice came from behind Scarlet King.
A faint smile appeared on his face.
Ikalat and Lin Yuan emerged behind him.
They had eliminated the remaining competitors.
Only Long Wei remained.
[Meanwhile — The Elders and Kuang Wei]
Kuang Wei stood before the black hole as it rushed toward him.
He moved directly in front of it and raised his fist.
With a single movement of his hand—
he stopped it effortlessly.
Tian Lang immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The expressions of the other Sect Masters, however, darkened slightly.
Then—
without warning—
the formations surrounding the black hole activated.
Black chains erupted outward and wrapped around Kuang Wei, binding him in place.
Kuang Wei's eyes widened.
"What the hell is this!?"
The black hole moved past him.
Then it continued directly toward the Moon Sect.
Everyone's mouths fell open in shock.
Kuang Wei shouted:
"Someone come help me!"
"Some of you evacuate the Moon Sect!"
"The rest of you—delay the black hole!"
