Chapter 60 - Darkness Finale (1/2)

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.
