Chapter 783: Breaking the Dao (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations
If it was said that the return of the Heavenly Mystery Mask and the weakening of the influence of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, Xiao Shi still could not believe that DemiG.o.d Yao Xi had died. With the collapse of Yao Xi Domain, even if this matter was extremely absurd, Xiao Shi had no choice but to believe it.
The collapse of a large domain was definitely a situation that would only happen if the demiG.o.d in charge of the domain died.
This could not help but cause an unprecedented huge shock in his heart. No matter what, he never expected DemiG.o.d Yao Xi was actually dead. An incomparably intense confusion rose in Xiao Shi’s heart. “Who can kill DemiG.o.d Yao Xi?”
The first thing he thought of was the other two demiG.o.d Heavenly Kings. But he rejected this possibility.
Firstly, if two of the demiG.o.d Heavenly Kings joined forces to kill one of them, the three demiG.o.d Heavenly Kings wouldn’t be able to maintain such a balance. Xiao Shi was basically certain that none of the three demiG.o.d Heavenly Kings could kill the other. Even if the other two demiG.o.d Heavenly Kings joined forces, they could not kill DemiG.o.d Yao Xi.
Secondly, there was no reason for the other two demiG.o.d heavenly kings to kill DemiG.o.d Yao Xi. Although there would be a battle between the three demiG.o.d Heavenly Kings sooner or later, it’s not now.
In particular, Xiao Shi had just sensed that the three demiG.o.d Heavenly Kings had joined forces not long ago to break through his Behind-the-scenes Heavenly Dao.
Logically speaking, because of his previous attack on the three domains, they should have already reached an agreement. It was impossible for them to kill each other at this time.
Apart from the two demiG.o.d Heavenly Kings, DemiG.o.d Yao Xi was one of the top combat strengths. Who had the ability to kill her?
“Could he be… the other demiG.o.d who hasn’t appeared?” Xiao Shi’s heart skipped a beat. But according to his speculation, the other demiG.o.d who hasn’t appeared should be in a similar situation to the demiG.o.d in the black coffin in his body. “No! The other demiG.o.d might not be in the same situation.”
Xiao Shi’s eyes suddenly turned cold. When he knew that the existence in the black coffin in his body was one of the demiG.o.ds, he realized that these two demiG.o.ds who had never appeared should have been demiG.o.ds who had died when the Great Wu Empire was flourishing.
But in fact, they were not dead. Everyone just thought that they were dead. Therefore, there were no traces of them in the Tianwu Continent. The domain that belonged to them back then had long ceased to exist.
But if this was the case, it was impossible for the other demiG.o.d who had yet to appear to kill DemiG.o.d Yao Xi.
Without a domain, he probably couldn’t even unleash half of his demiG.o.d strength. It was definitely not a match for DemiG.o.d Yao Xi. How did he kill her then?
“There’s another possibility.” Xiao Shi’s expression suddenly became solemn. “In the Tianwu Continent, there are some hidden factions and experts that have never been revealed.”
He felt that this possibility was extremely high. After all, he was good at hiding behind the scenes, so he had a very high sense of concealment. Now, he could already vaguely smell a similar scent.
“If DemiG.o.d Yao Xi has really perished, do I have a chance of advancing to a demiG.o.d now?”
Xiao Shi suddenly had a thought. He immediately observed the rules of heaven and earth in the Tianwu Continent.
As his eyes lit up, he clearly saw the world net that existed in the world. Unexpectedly, the world net in the Tianwu Continent was still intact. It did not show any incompleteness because of the death of DemiG.o.d Yao Xi.
It was still the same as before the death of DemiG.o.d Yao Xi. There were no changes.
Xiao Shi’s heart sank.
On the huge golden altar, the figure covered in a black cloak arrived at the altar again and said in a low voice, “I’ve already killed DemiG.o.d Yao Xi and obtained the law of time.”
The prince, who was on the altar, raised his head when he heard this. “Very well. Then next, it’s my turn.” He looked directly at the Behind-the-scenes Heavenly Dao at the top of the Dao River. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Swoosh! His figure flashed and he instantly disappeared from the altar. In the next second, he had already appeared in the Dao River.
” Why do the rules of DemiG.o.d Yao Xi still exist?” Xiao Shi was extremely puzzled. Typically, once a demiG.o.d died, the worldly laws that belonged to a demiG.o.d would dissipate from the world. Hence, there was an additional s.p.a.ce in the world. However, he realized that the rules of heaven and earth of the DemiG.o.d Yao Xi had yet to dissipate. This shocked him. “Could it be because the person that killed DemiG.o.d Yao Xi had the ability to preserve the rules of heaven and earth?”
Xiao Shi had a guess. For the other party to be able to kill DemiG.o.d Yao Xi, he definitely had extremely terrifying strength. It was not surprising that he could do this.
However, in this way, he couldn’t use the additional nomological s.p.a.ce left after the death of DemiG.o.d Yao Xi to attempt to become a demiG.o.d.
“From the looks of it, I can only have a chance of breaking through to the demiG.o.d realm through the existence in the black coffin.”
Xiao Shi’s heart was a little heavy. The seal on his heart had yet to be undone, but it would be done soon.
