Divine Emperor of Death

Myria was horrified to see an Immortal King Vacuous Beast descending.

How!? Just how could it enter the Fifty-Two Territories when even Level Two Immortal Beasts aren't able to enter!? According to her knowledge, the Fifty-Two Territories Grand Formation was, at the very least, a Peak Immortal Emperor Grade Formation.

For such a formation to allow an Immortal King Vacuous Beast to forcefully enter, her pupils kept trembling without a stop as she couldn't believe it.

Utmost, she thought he could bring down Level Two or Level Three Vacuous Beasts, even if despairing will still allow her to have some leeway, but to have any kind of winning chance against an Immortal King, the way was for her to detonate her Eternal Life Soul and even then, it was painfully not even a hundred percent chance. She wondered if the chances were even five percent after getting swallowed and detonating at the closest range possible.

"Na-uh-uh."

Fraser Herrion amusedly smiled as he shook his index finger.

"Times have changed, Saintess. The human race no longer calls or associates Immortal King Stage entities with Immortal Kings but calls them Monarchs, the second stage in the Transcendent Path. But since Saintess doesn't know what happened in the outside world, I, Fraser Herrion, as an Immortal Path Cultivator, will still accommodate your vocabulary."

Myria's expression finally calmed over his long-winded explanation that she didn't need, her lips moving.

"The grand formation is weakening?"

"That's right." Fraser Herrion nodded heavily, "I possess that little dragon using a significant amount of my blood and soul essence at the moment. Moreover, due to the karmic connection between me, my main body, and the me in the Immortal King Vacuous Beast, it would be able to disrupt this grand formation's suppression for a short time, allowing the Immortal King Vacuous Beast to wreak utter havoc. Ah, the lengths I go to retrieve you..."

He sighed in exhaustion before his eyes became filled with a desirous light.

"Either you take my hand, and I cause the Immortal King Vacuous Beast to implode, saving the trillions of souls here. Or you remain stubborn to the end and watch trillions of humans, magical beasts, and spirits die because of you. To go… through… the same pain… once again… repeatedly… Ah~ The very sin…! My passion for you just doesn't go away, tearing me apart from the surging unbridled love!"

Fraser Herrion's expression warped into one of insanity as he wrapped his arms around his body as though embracing Myria, dancing as he moved with his hips.

To Myria's eyes, he was nothing but a clown at this moment, but the hatred in her heart made her take him seriously. However, her fists didn't clench anymore. Instead, the light in her eyes turned dull.

'Again…'

"Ah, excuse me." Fraser Herrion stood straight and smiled awkwardly, "The incompatible possession is causing trouble to my vulnerable soul, making a fool out of myself. Now, will you take my hand or not? Time is limited..."

He extended his hand once again, but Myria appeared unresponsive, her chin raised as she looked at the skies again.

The Immortal King Vacuous Beast was struggling to enter, quarter-way inside already. Its groans shook the world, causing spatial fissures to appear. If it descended, it was unknown if the Fifty-Two Territories would simply collapse or the formation would be destroyed, restoring the normal spatial stability of the First Haven World into the Fifty-Two Territories.

'No matter how I run or strike back… it always comes to this...'

She thought it would be different this time, but her catastrophic enemy had checkmated her even before she could leave the world she was reborn in.

"That's right."

Fraser Herrion revealed a deep smile, "The act of saving you from me and others like me. The act of protecting you for millions of years. The act of allowing you to grow when you're a tumor to Heaven's Will. All these acts form a heavy karmic burden on this world's master, and that's why that grand existence can't save you and wouldn't interfere anymore."

"This time, you can't simply save however many lives you can and flee. Give it up. Hehehehehe!~~~"

Holding his stomach, he bent his body and cackled, seemingly taking immense pleasure over the conflict he had seen in Myria's eyes.

His words were like the final nail to the coffin, causing Myria to heavily shudder as she lowered her head.

"Although I have been given aid for some reason… I… have… never relied on anyone ever since I became a Fiend!"

*Bzzzz!~*

Iridescent black and white energy surged around her body as it took shape like a yin-yang diagram behind her, casting a mysterious outlook that made her seem like she existed there but also didn't.

"Stubborn and infallible, forever an everlasting beauty pursued by the highest of dragons..." Fraser Herrion was smiling so wide that he couldn't hide his grin, "Yet that is what makes you so precious and the hunt worth it!"

He took a step forward when his expression abruptly changed, turning to look back.

The possessed Immortal King Vacuous Beast in the skies also turned to look elsewhere, its bloodthirsty eyes reflecting an intense white light that caused even their eyesight to distort heavily from that distance!

========

Davis's expression had frozen when he saw the Immortal King Vacuous Beast break the spatial restrictions and enter, its huge head squirming as it tried to penetrate through.

At the same time, he received word that the Heaven Mandate Temple had completely collapsed. The seven hundred and fifty square kilometer Territory became prey to the hundreds of Vacuous Beasts that suddenly invaded from the nearby Territories for some reason.

Moreover, the Astral Light Sect Territory and whatever remained of the already ruined Vast Sky Emperor Palace met the same fate.

The death toll reached billions in a few minutes. After all, the population of the Large-Sized Territories was hundreds of billions, so a few billion deaths weren't much when considering the population, but the sheer number of it was horrifying, causing Davis's eyes to tremble with horror.

He had never heard of such an amount of people dying in such a short time. Not even fifteen minutes had passed since the descent of the Vacuous Beasts!

He even heard that the Heaven Mandate Temple's Immortal had been eaten alive while the Heaven Gazing Sect Immortal's life and death were unknown, having disappeared completely.

If he thought he could somehow deal with the Immortal Vacuous Beasts and even defeat the suppressed bastard somehow, an Immortal King entity was descending, causing his scalp to turn numb.

"Davis… that… how… that… Vacuous Beast also seems to be possessed…?"

"Ffff-"

Lereza's voice was shaking while Davis almost cursed out loud, but he instantly tried to calm himself, his thoughts running at full speed to search for a way out, even seriously inclining towards escaping back to the Grand Sea Continent.

However, that would mean abandoning Ellia and so many others he cared about, even Myria.

"Lereza, you… you're an Immortal King, right?" Davis's eyes brightened with hope, "I'll allow you to go outside, so do something about that massive creature..."

"It's useless..." However, Lereza's voice sounded as though her face was also pale, "If I go out, the Fifty-Two Territories would completely collapse, causing hundreds of billions of death..."

"What the-" Davis trembled, pointing at the monstrosity in the skies, "Then how is that thing entering right now, brimming with Immortal King undulations!?"

Davis didn't know how far it was, but the terrifying pressure could be felt even near the surface. There was no telling what would happen if it broke through its way inside!
