Chapter 118: New Realm - 118
At the top of the biggest tower in the celestial lands, Anna was cultivating. She could feel that she was inches away from reaching the 10th level of void traversing.
Within a day, she would be able to break through and reach new heights. Her slightly superior talent had started showing more and more recently. Unlike her, the dragon king wasn't close to breaking into the 10th level of void traversing. It would take him another 2000 years minimum.
Zhou Fan stood next to her, hidden. For the first time, he decided to see exactly what her talent was. As he had expected, Anna's talent was higher than immortal rank. Her talent reached the next rank, which Zhou Fan decided to call immortal king.
Her specific talent was immortal king 5. The dragon king's talent was at immortal king 7, and the monkey king was at supreme god 1 along with the titanosaur.
Her and the dragon king were definitely the most talented beings in the Zhou World. Since Anna was busy, Zhou Fan went to the supreme beasts land for the first time.
He teleported to the main area of the land that couldn't really be called a city and explored the area. The supreme beasts had a few different layouts within their main area. First, there were the plains. They were the most heavily inhabited and were mostly occupied by weak beings.
The second area was a forest. It was the second most populated area and held 5% of the supreme beast population. The forest was home to most of the strongest beings within the supreme beast lands.
The only other area was a single mountain taller than any other. It was once the tallest mountain in the Zhou World and it still claimed that title due to the fact that it expanded with the world. The mountain was occupied by only one being. The dragon king.
Like Anna, he was cultivating. Zhou Fan floated above his mountain and thought about how death should enter the scene. He didn't want to destroy the mountain since it was so old, but he also didn't want to have a lame entrance.
Eventually, Zhou Fan decided on an entrance that was both flashy and not too destructive.
Clouds gathered above the supreme beast lands. At first, not a single supreme beast paid attention to it. After a while, however, some started to notice that something about it was weird.
There was not a single supreme beast that wasn't a cultivator, so every single member felt something ominous from the clouds. Soon, lightning started to streak across the clouds and within minutes, a terrible thunderstorm was taking place.
Although it was only strong compared to normal storms at first, the weather started to escalate and winds started to increase in speed. In only five minutes since clouds gathered, winds were moving at 500 miles per hour, forcing the weakest of the supreme beasts to shield themselves with Qi.
Lightning soon started to strike the ground and even hit a few people. The lightning was powerful enough to temporarily paralyze almost everyone below soul formation and even kill those at core formation.
Soon, the dragon king woke up from his cultivation. He immediately sensed the situation and decided to end it.
From a hole on the side of the huge mountain, the dragon king flew out and up towards the sky. As he was about to reach the clouds, he blew out a breath of flames that covered every inch of the storms.
The clouds instantly dispersed and the storm came to an end, but the dragon king didn't feel relieved. Just as he dispersed the storm, he felt goosebumps on his back and dropped towards the ground as fast as possible.
Right as he dropped, a giant bone sword covered in death Qi flew past the place he had been.
The dragon king flapped his wings and stayed in the air, looking in the distance in the direction the attack came from.
"Lucky." A voice sounded out. Every individual in the supreme beast lands looked up when they heard the booming voice.
"I prefer the term skill." The dragon king responded.
The grim reaper appeared in mid air and looked at the dragon king. "You are only at the 9th level of void traversing, you stand no chance." He said.
"We've beaten you before despite you being above us in level. We will do it again. I only need to hold you back." The dragon king said with no fear in his voice.
"If that was the case you may win, but i'm no longer just above you in level." The grim reaper said.
Just as the dragon king was about to respond, the grim reaper stopped holding his cultivation back and revealed it for the world to see.
In an instant, a deadly pressure covered the entire Zhou World, suffocating all living beings. Near the grim reaper, space started to crack as he released his power.
"I'm above you in realm!"
Without hesitation, the dragon king turned around and fled in terror, leaving everything behind. He didn't think of anything else as he used every bit of his power and flew towards the celestial lands.
Like every other living being in the Zhou World, the rulers felt the deathly pressure and feared the worst. The grim reaper had broken through to another realm.
Both the titanosaur and the monkey king hesitated for a while before they flew towards the celestial lands. They knew that if the grim reaper defeated Anna and the dragon king, they would be next.
As for Anna, she didn't move an inch. She felt that within an hour, she would break into the 10th level of void traversing. At that time, they may stand a chance.
The grim reaper smiled when he saw the dragon king run away. He broke through space and chased him at a much faster speed, but let him stay in front of him. The grim reaper wanted to take the opportunity to take every powerhouse out at the same time and destroy the Zhou World once and for all.
Chapter 119: Injury - 119
The dragon king ran for 15 minutes before the celestial lands came into view. He had long figured out that the grim reaper was playing with him, but chalked it up to him being arrogant.
After 3 minutes, the dragon king arrived at the plains in front of central city. He was greeted by an entire army and two of the rulers. He joined the two rulers' side and looked around for anna. When he didn't see her, he started to fear the worst.
"Why isn't Anna here?" He asked, hoping that she hadn't run away after sensing the grim reaper's power.
"We're not sure, but we can tell she is in her tower." The titanosaur responded.
The dragon king nodded and looked at the grim reaper standing across from them. "I'm not sure if we'll be able to last more than ten minutes without her." He said.
The titanosaur and the monkey king didn't say anything, but they agreed in their heads. They stalled as long as they could, but after a few more seconds, the grim reaper started to run at them.
With each step he took, space cracked and the planet rumbled. he had reached a level of strength that almost no other in the Zhou World could match.
As he got closer, Death Qi started to gather around him, increasing the momentum he was gaining. Eventually, the death Qi began to form a figure behind him. It was the same phantom he had summoned in the last battle.
Now, he could summon it with much more ease. It was also much stronger than before. The monkey king wasted no time by forming the buddha from last time and the other rulers didn't wait before sending their Qi to help form the buddha.
Although Anna wasn't participating, the other three rulers were much stronger than before. If the grim reaper was at the tenth level of void traversing, the buddha may equally match him.
Unfortunately, the grim reaper was now much stronger. As soon as the buddha figure and the death Qi phantoms fists collided, the buddha nearly broke.
It was pushed backwards, but the death Qi phantom stepped forward and delivered a punch to its head. The buddha dispersed immediately and the three rulers fell to the ground in defeat. They had used every bit of Qi they had in summoning the buddha figure, but they had been defeated immediately.
Not even twenty minutes had passed since the grim reaper revealed his strength. The grim reaper stood above them in the air and laughed at them. With him breaking into a higher realm, the group stood no chance against him.
As Zhou Fan watched on in the sky, he couldn't help but consider intervening. He couldn't just let the rulers die, they were too important.
However, just as he was about to make something happen, an old man stepped out from the city gates and started walking to the battlefield with nothing but a rusty sword in his hand.
Although he was old, he was strong. In fact, he was the third strongest person in the celestial lands with the cultivation of third level void traversing.
Since not a single person in the entire area was moving, it didn't take long before everyone had turned their eyes to him. Even Zhou Fan couldn't help but wonder what he was doing.
"Grim reaper." He said. "I have learned a martial art by watching a star explode. Please take my attack."
Although everyone found his words to be almost comical, nobody was laughing. It seemed as if the old man was wishing for death or was insane.
Even the grim reaper wasn't laughing at him. Instead, he was looking at him with disdain and disgust.
"Go ahead. I won't even block it." He said.
To both him and everyone else, the idea that someone at the third level of void traversing could even scratch someone at the realm above void traversing was ridiculous.
The grim reaper then turned away and ignored the old man, staring at the rulers on the ground.
The old man didn't seem upset or disappointed that he was being ignored, but indifferent towards the attitude of the grim reaper. Zhou Fan couldn't take his eyes off of him.
The old man lifted his sword up above his head. It was pointing straight in the air. He held it there for what seemed like an entire minute.
Although nobody else, not even the grim reaper, could see what was happening, Zhou Fan was able to tell. The man was focusing everything he had and everything he would ever have into this one strike.
A second before the old man dropped his sword down, the grim reaper felt a chill take over his entire body. Although he was death itself, he felt the true fear of death upon him.
In that same second, the old man slashed his sword towards the grim reaper. There was no burst of Qi or movement, but neither the grim reaper nor the old man moved an inch. It seemed that the entire world had come to a standstill.
All of a sudden, the old man's body started turning to dust. A wind blew and his body disintegrated. As everyone stared in confusion, the grim reaper's body started changing. In the center of his chest, a hole a foot in diameter turned into dust similar to the old man's entire body.
The grim reaper fell from the sky and landed on the ground. He clutched the area of the wound in pain and started rolling around on the ground. The rulers and the viewers watched on without a single word, clearly in shock at what just happened.
As for Zhou Fan, he too was in a state of shock. What the old man had just done was sacrifice his life. He permanently burned up all of his Qi, his cultivation, and even his lifespan.
He had imitated the supernova that had sacrificed its remaining life for one last burst of power.
