Chapter 60 - Darkness Finale

Tio's attack killed every cultivator as remaining scattered, looked at the destruction with terror-filled eyes.

At this point, Wentian was gritting his teeth. His plan of world domination was destroyed just like that, turning to ashes.

Looking at the remaining cultivators, whose amount was lower than any sacred ground – he concluded that it was not enough for his plan.

As he was thinking about his next move, he heard a sudden voice in his head. A smirk form on his mouth, hearing it.

Wang Lei and co looked at the destruction caused by Tio and were amazed, "It is one of the most destructive Physique for a reason." Wang Lei said.

He looked towards Wentian and smiled. "It is my turn then."

He started to walk towards him. Everyone's attention diverted to him. Especially, Jasmine, she wanted to see what he can do.

Soon, Wang Lei reached in front of Wentian, who was looking towards him with interest.

"You guys surprised me. To think Guild had so much hidden power." Wentian said.

"Just a little bit, not enough to reach the apex." Wang Lei smiled and said.

"Are you going to fight me? Are you sure you don't want those women's help?" Wentian said, pointing towards the girls.

Wang Lei smiled and said, "We are just going to play; why to let others interrupt us?"

Wentian, hearing him narrowed his eyes. He intensely looked over him, trying to unveil his mysteries. But no matter what method he used, Wang Lei looked nothing more than a mortal.

If the only difference he could find, then that would be his skin. It looked beautifully sculpted – no blemish.

Wentian looked towards him and said, "Why don't we make a bet?"

Wang Lei raised a brow, "Bet? What bet?"

"Not too much. If I won, then everything that you own – from your Profound Laws to deepest secrets, and Guild – shall be mine. It includes those women too." Wentian said.

"And what if I won?"

Wentian smile and said, "I will give you eternal life! And you will become an immortal."

The whole battlefield becomes quiet. Cultivators had their eyes open wide. Most were skeptical about Wentian's claim of granting eternal life, while some had greed flashed in their eyes.

The silence stretched for a moment before it broke by a loud laugh. Everyone looked at the source of laughter and found Wang Lei holding his stomach and laughing loudly.

He was laughing so hysterically as if heard the funniest thing in the whole universe.

Girls seeing the shook their heads. Eternal life? Immortality? Wentian could not even tell that real immortal was standing in front of him.

What allure can eternal life have in front of the person who could grant true immortality?

Wentian seeing him laughing, frowned.

"Why are you laughing? What is so funny? Do you think I am lying?... I know it is hard to believe, but it is true! I can grant eternal life to you!"

Hearing him, Wang Lei started to laugh even harder, "Sorry, sorry, I believe you. It just too surreal that I couldn't stop myself from laughing."

Wang Lei stopped laughing as he wiped his tears. He looked towards Wentian and nodded, "Very well. You have made me laugh so hard if I don't show mercy on you, then that would make me ungrateful."

Wang Lei smirked and took his left hand behind his back, "Come, I will only use my one hand against you. We can also go with your bet."

Wentian, when heard him, started to become angry. Wang Lei was looking down on him and treating him like a clown, which made him fume with anger.

A moment later, he smirked, "Very well then, do not blame me for it."

Wentian said as his cultivation base started to rise and stopped at Divine Origin Peak, but then something usual happened as Darkness begins to spew out from the other dark cultivators.

It was even being poured out of the earth where other cultivators died. It started to gather around Wentian, who absorbed it all inside him.

Once he absorbed all the Darkness, his cultivation started to rise again. It broke through the Divine Origin Realm barrier and entered the Soul Realm.

It kept rising and finally stopping at 8th Divine Soul Realm. The pressure Wentian was releasing was so intense that it started to bend the space around him.

Every cultivator present felt their breathing stagnated. They found it hard to breathe with the pressure.

They all looked towards Wang Lei, whose origin was still unknown to them. However, most of the higher members of different sects already had their guess deducted about Wang Lei's identity.

They watched with full attention; they wanted to see how strong he was.

Wentian felt his power rising and started to laugh, "Behold! The power of the Heavenly Sovereign! Are you scared now? But don't worry, if you surrender to this, Sovereign, then I might forgive you!"

He looked towards Wang Lei but found him standing their nonchalant, not entertained in the least. He was just standing with the same pose, with one hand behind, and kept smirking towards him as if enjoying the moment.

"Good, enough to have a little warm-up." Wang Lei said.

This anger Wentian to no point. Wang Lei, was thinking of him as a warm-up? Him? The Heavenly Sovereign?

Wentian gritted his teeth, "After I defeat you and take all your secrets, I will tear that smirk off your face. I will torture you to the point where you will beg for life. You will-"

"Can we start already? I mean, what is the point of this speech when you are going to die – refined to became my meal anyway." Wang Lei said, cutting his monologue.

"Good! Then don't blame me!" Wentian said as a long black sword appeared in his hands.

The sword itself looked like the embodiment of Darkness. If one looks close, then one would find a small eye near the hilt of the sword. The eye was staring at Wang Lei, its gaze felt like it could penetrate all known mysteries, yet it could not detect anything on Wang Lei.

'Be careful, Wentian. This person is too wired. After the power those girls showed, do not underestimate him.' It sent a message to Wentian.

Wentian hearing him nodded. Of course, even though he was angry, he still has not lost his reasoning. He knew that if he underestimated this fella in front of him, then that very much can result in his doom.

Wang Lei looked at the sword. 'So this the devil sword that has the soul of the devil in it.'

"It's not a bad sword." Wang Lei said.

Wentian answered him with a slash. A deep crevice appeared in the space. The Spatial Laws of Blur Pole Star were quite weak compared to other regions of God Realm, it was not strong enough to take a slash from a Divine Realm Master.

Wang Lei did not move from his position and let the slash hit him.

Wentian and cultivators looked towards him, confused. Why is he not dodging the slash? They got their answer the next second when the slash hit Wang Lei's body. Sparks flew, but not a single scratch appears on Wang Lei.

He stood there without any moment as if the previous slash was not pointed towards him.

"That tickled." Wang Lei said.

Wentian, who heard him did not how to answer. That previous slash may not be strongest but had enough power to slay any Sovereign or even 5th of Divine Origin Realm Master.

But to Wang Lei, it tickled a little?

Wentian took a step and appeared in front of Wang Lei, and did a vertical swing.

Wentian, seeing this, had his eyes widen. 'What the hell is with his Physique?! How can it be this strong?!'

Of course, he would not know that Wang Lei Physique has already reached a level where it was almost impossible to hurt him.

If one does not have any heaven-defying power or weapon, then it was impossible to hurt him. Since he had already reached Grand Completion in Indestructible Diamond Immortal Physique!

"Nice sword, but smells bad. Let me help you with cleaning it." Wang Lei said as he poured a tremendous amount of Light energy into it.

"Ahhh!!" A scream came from the sword.

Others hearing it was surprised. Does the sword have a consciousness?

"Fuck!" Wentian tried his best, but he could not free the sword from Wang Lei's hand. He saw as Light energy started to move towards his hand.

He hurriedly left the sword and jumped back since Wang Lei's Light, unlike docile, was aggressive as if to eat everything present in its path – a hungry beast.

Wang Lei looked at the sword in his hands as his gaze priced to its deepest part.

A smile appeared on his face, "It is not bad art. According to this world's standard, it might be one of the best." He said as he learned 'Illusory Devil Tome of Eternal Night'.

He had to say that this art was the best he has seen so far in this world. The sheer use of this art was enough to make one stand at the top of the food chain in the God Realm.

Especially 'Devil Blood Reincarnation', that lets its user reincarnate, though under 'special' circumstances, and 'Devil Wheel Blood Sacrifice', that lets its user have eternal life and faster cultivation in the shortest route with a sacrifice.

Both have enough potential to be included in top Profound Arts. Sad Yun Che used none in conon.

Wang Lei, as he learned the technique, throws the sword towards Wentian. "Here, take it; you would never be able to defeat me without it."

Wentian did not say anything and took the sword. He checked and found out the soul of the devil was no longer present inside the sword.

Wang Lei smirked and said, "If you are looking for that little devil, then forget it. He has become nourishment for me. Got to say, he tasted good."

Wang Lei did a ŀɨċkɨnġ motion with his tongue, indicating he enjoyed it. He didn't eat it in the literal sense but refined him and absorbed him.

Wentian gripped around the sword tightens. A bead of sweat trickle down his forehead. He raised his hand as a black ball of Darkness forms on it.

<Lightless Eternal Night>

As he said, the ball of Darkness in his hand expanded. Soon it covered everything within it, including Wang Lei. Everything was swallowed, even the Light.

Wang Lei looked around him and found out that he could not see anything. There was nothing but Darkness.

He stood there for some time when he felt Darkness penetrating his heart, trying to convert him.

Feeling it, Wang Lei smiled. "Perfect. I was waiting for it," he said as he started to absorb Darkness.

A vortex was created where Wang Lei was standing as Darkness surges towards it; it suċkėd everything as if a dark hole.

Soon all the Darkness was absorbed inside Wang Lei – everything returned to normal.

He looked towards Wentian, who had an ugly expression on his face as if eaten shit.

Wang Lei smiled, "Thanks for the meal. Now it is my turn." He said as a heavy sword falls in front of him.

Wang Lei gripped the heavy sword and did some practice swings, "It is my first time using it; please bear with it." He said.

Wang Lei took a step and appeared in front of Wentian, swing his sword.

<Falling Moon Sinking Star>

Wang Lei said as his energy started to compress on the heavy sword.

Wentian put his sword, horizontally, in front of him.

Both swords colloid as an immense explosion occurs. Dust rises and engulfs both in it.

Jasmine and Yun Che, who saw that attack become wide-eyed. "What?! That is Evil God's first style! How can he use it?!" Yun Che said, astonished.

Jasmine remembers what Wang Lei did when they first met. 'Could he have copied it? But that should be impossible. This is Creation God's Legacy.'

Soon the dust settled; they saw Wang Lei standing with the heavy sword with Wentian missing his arm. But that did not hinder him as Darkness coated his destroyed arm and healed it.

Wang Lei looked towards him, "Well, enough of testing. Let's finish it."

Hearing it, Wentian charged all his energy that he could muster in his sword, "I will become the only ruler!" he shouted and launched himself towards Wang Lei.

Wang Lei also leaned a little forward and vanished. No matter raw strength or speed, Wang Lei was above Wentian, who was at Divine Soul Realm.

A moment later, both reached in front of each other.

Wentian did a vertical slash as he shouts.

<Jet Black Sword>

Wang Lei also slashed upward. His sword shone golden as his voice become ethereal.

<Finality: Heavy Slash>

Both swords colloid as an enormous explosion happened.

The sword in Wentian hand broke without taking the full brunt of Wang Lei's slash.

Wang Lei's sword pierced the space and left a deep crevice on it. He looked towards Wentain and said, "You lost."

The silence stretches as Wentian started to laugh, "Lost? No, it is you who have lost!" he looked into Wang Lei's eyes, "Dark Lords has seen everything that happened here! Soon they will reach this star and take over it! hahaha!"

Wang Lei narrowed his eyes, 'System, can I absorb the whole Blue Pole Star in <My World>?'

[Ding! You can, Master!]

Hearing it, Wang Lei sighed, he was not really worried about Blue Pole Star, particularly, but he was thinking of absorbing who Primal Chaos Dimension in <My World>. He was just fasting the process now.

He looked towards Wentian, who was still laughing. Ignoring his laughter, Wang Lei grabbed his head and sent his divine intent in it.

As he saw Wentian's memories, he was astonished. 'Did ATG merged with ED? But this is interesting…' he thought as a smirk form on his face.

Soon, Light energy comes out of his body and eats away Wentain, going back into his body.
