Chapter 1000: The Twin Blades Ringing

Zhang Lie frowned. “There’s something wrong with you…”

Nightdemon called out, “He swallowed too many wills of the world at once and can’t digest them all. Of course there’s something wrong with his body!”

The souls of the wills of the world were far superior in quality to ordinary souls. Although the death spirit king was once a superior king, with roughly the same status in terms of body and soul, he had consumed too many wills of the world at once.

The black spirits’ plan to take over the three thousand worlds of the third realm had initially been very successful, though there was one issue that the death spirit king hadn’t anticipated—the spoils that his plan afforded him.

The death spirit king had accumulated far too many wills of the world than could be handled. By the territory around the scaleman world alone, thirty medium-sized worlds and ten large-sized worlds had been conquered by the death spirits.

The death spirit king had managed to acquire at least three hundred wills of the world in all during this venture. That, along with the worlds that the black spirits had slowly invaded and conquered over time, was far more than the death spirit king could handle—and yet he swallowed them all up in one gulp anyway.

The death spirit king hadn’t consumed this many worlds at once in the past, but by itself, it wouldn’t have been a serious issue. The death spirit king would be able to digest the worlds with sufficient time.

The problem lay with the current situation at large.

The moment the death spirit king put his plan in motion, he wouldn’t be able to stop until all three thousand worlds were destroyed. There was simply no time for the death spirit king to digest all those wills.

In order to counter the allied forces, the death spirit king had to make a move. If he didn’t and chose to focus on digesting the wills of the world instead, he would be dead.

After the plan began in earnest, the death spirit king had no choice but to carry it out as planned. He broke through the superior worlds’ barricade and consumed all the worlds nearby.

As planned, he swallowed up Blood Heaven and a series of worlds in the vicinity. The death spirit king was starting to grow stuffed.

The wills of the world, not fully digested, began to struggle within the death spirit king’s body. They wanted to free themselves, so the death spirit king was forced to seal his own body with the black bandages. Now that he had unsealed his body, the wills of the world began to run rampant once more. They tried to tear apart the death spirit king’s body to free themselves, causing it to become lumpy and distended.

Wilbow considered the death spirit king carefully. “His body looks a bit like my father’s…”

Nightdemon shook his head. “They’re quite different. The king of keys itself is formed of wills of the world; its path is unique. On the other hand, the death spirit king is a biological lifeform, with a very different status of life from the king of keys. Upon passing through the first door, imagination and willpower becomes more important than the amount of energy you possess.”

The ink-black man analyzed, “Although the king of keys’ condition isn’t particularly robust, either—that’s why it’s remained stagnant for so long, and has to come up with other methods to proceed forward along the path. In some sense, the king of keys has taken a wrong turn, but the death spirit king is doing far worse. He’s on the verge of total collapse.”

Zhang Lie turned to them and asked, “What are these doors that you’re talking about?”?And if all of you have time to talk and discuss what’s happening to the death spirit king, come over and help me!

“We’ll explain later. You should focus on your opponent,” Nightdemon called back, pointing at the death spirit king. “He’s not going to go easy on you if you get distracted.”

The death spirit king charged forward with a multicolored fist.

“[Shadow and Light]!” Zhang Lie whirled around. Time suddenly sped up in the vicinity of Zhang Lie, and he blocked what would otherwise have been an unavoidable blow. The next moment, the tip of his sword was right by the death spirit king’s nose.

The death spirit king had launched the attack, but Zhang Lie had somehow commandeered it.

Even so, Zhang Lie’s sword found no purchase on the death spirit king’s body. Silvery-white sword slashes rained down on the death spirit king like a thunderstorm, but he was protected by the world’s energy. His defense was stronger and less permeable than even the will of the world’s barriers, and Zhang Lie’s consecutive sword strikes did nothing to wound him.

The death spirit king easily pushed aside Zhang Lie’s sword and countered with a heavy punch. Zhang Lie attempted to block the punch with the blade of his sword, only to find himself completely overwhelmed. The death spirit king had grown at least an order of magnitude stronger than before.

Drawing Hanguang, Zhang Lie struck at the death spirit king’s neck, but even Hanguang was incapable of penetrating his defense.

“Don’t disappoint me too much!” The death spirit king punched forward again, bolstered by a thick layer of world’s energy.

“[Syzygy]!” A burning black sun rose behind Zhang Lie’s back, and a bloody moon flared into existence at his feet. Under the combination of the two auras, Zhang Lie seemed to have transformed into a god.

His aura was magnified tenfold, and a halo of black sun appeared above his forehead. Natural law seemed to warp around him.

Runes likewise appeared on the bloody moon by his feet, forming an intricate array.

Struck by the bloody moonlight, the death spirit king’s radiance grew dim. Under the black sun, the fluctuations in Zhang Lie’s genetic energy were enhanced.

Zhang Lie crossed his twin blades. The blood moon resonated with the blade in his left hand, and the black sun with the blade in his right. He simultaneously slashed forward with both blades, forming a huge celestial web.

Even the death spirit king was forced back half a step. Even more excited, he punched forward once more. Zhang Lie responded in kind.

“[Blade of the Heavens: the Sea Swells]!” Energy poured out of Zhang Lie in waves, honing the edge of his blade. The pulses of energy struck the sea like a tsunami, devouring everything within.

As the two attacks clashed against each other, the death spirit king licked his lips. His eyes burned with killing intent. “Not bad. Again!”

The death spirit king seemed to be asking for a beating. Zhang Lie had never seen such a perverse fellow, but he would do his best to fulfill his request.

Guicang and Hanguang shone in unison. “[Blades, Reverberate]!”

A blood dragon materialized around Zhang Lie. Energy poured out of him in waves, honing the edge of his blade. The pulses of energy struck the realm like a tsunami, devouring everything within.

The twin blades Guicang and Hanguang emitted a fearsome aura, shining as brightly as the sun and moon. Sword energy materialized from Zhang Lie’s blades. The blade Hanguang morphed into a black dragon, and the blade Guicang into a blood dragon.

The two dragons coiled together, then shot forward like a hurricane, bearing down on the death spirit king with the might of Zhang Lie’s spiritual sea between them and forming a whirlpool upon impact. Tremendous suction, like that from a black hole, sucked up everything around the two combatants. Layers of earth sank into the whirlpool, obliterated in an instant…
