"The Heirloom Seal did not choose you because..."
"—From the very start, a worthless being like you was never! Qual! I! Fied!"
In that moment, Wuyou's face twisted completely in the mud and blood, as if it were about to tear apart under fury and madness.
Roaring and howling, his body suddenly tore, shattered, and expanded rapidly.
In the swamp of the Tiger Talisman Seed, one soul after another and fragmented bodies appeared, erupting like a waterfall, burning, transforming into unprecedented power.
"Delusional!"
Amidst the roars, from the deep [hole] in Wuyou's chest, the Flame Tide Seed reappeared, pouring in all remaining live sacrifices, blood, and souls, ripping even his own soul to invest in it.
The terrifying power that manifested afterward was unprecedented.
Violent blinding light gushed out, boundless flames swept over, turning into a towering crimson storm, completely engulfing the figure before it.
The temperature soared endlessly; in an instant, the entire temple became a terrifying melting furnace, comparable to the fierce sun itself.
Wherever it passed, everything turned to ashes, utterly annihilated!
Souls were burned completely away, matter turned to dust, and in the moment when the essence of the Flame Tide's catastrophe revealed itself, it led all things to absolute conclusion!
The opposite of Ascension and Ruins, the Absolute Abyss of all spiritual death and the vortex of all material annihilation overlapped here, as the flames transformed and the colors turned into eerie white.
No more flaws, only pure nothingness remained!
"Die!!!"
Wuyou howled, even though he himself was already ignited by the terrifying flames, he didn't care at all, watching as that figure vanished without a trace in the flames, unable to help but laugh out loud.
"Haha, hahahaha..."
He danced wildly like a madman on the scorched earth, laughing: "Did you see?! Did you see?! I am the true master of the Empire, you are all not!
I am the one truly favored by Heavenly Destiny!"
"Is it so?"
A voice filled with confusion came from behind him, full of misunderstanding.
"Why don't I know?"
Amidst the ashes, a wisp of flame rekindled, and the eerie figure that had turned to dust and ashes inexplicably aggregated, like a miracle, unharmed amidst such terrifying destruction!
Moreover, the brutal aura reborn more intense!
At this moment, a pair of eyes slowly lifted, full of curiosity and doubt, looking at Wuyou's stiff expression, unable to comprehend—using anything else is fine, but using the Flame Tide's catastrophe to kill me...
How is this any different from just recharging me?
Wuyou stood frozen in place, his twitching expression twisted in terror, instinctively trying to activate the Flame Tide Seed, but the tide of pale flames split open in front of Ji Jue.
Unscathed!
Even, he casually plucked a wisp with his hand, fiddling with it easily, and sent it into his mouth.
"Tastes good, what a pity."
Ji Jue sighed, shaking his head slowly: "The same trick can never work twice on a true supreme!"
Talking nonsense!
No matter how arrogant a madman may be, he could never say something so dreamlike, meant to induce laughter!
But now, no one could laugh.
In front of the iron-clad facts, all rebuttals seemed so pale and weak, even truth and laws became void in the face of the supreme testimony of royal power.
Could this be the majesty of the Heavenly Origin Tower?
But how did those Mo of the past sever Tian Yuan, cutting off eternity?
It feels like a nightmare...
Wuyou already struggled, never to awaken again.
"You... you... wrong... you..."
Instinctively, he tried to back away, staggering, swinging his arms randomly, trying to activate the Flame Tide again and again, but the flames responding to him were growing fewer and fewer.
Until finally, under the gaze of those eyes, they completely extinguished.
No more traces.
Until Ji Jue extended his hand, an invisible force suddenly manifested, descending, shackling his body, holding his throat, once again brutally pulling him back in front of him.
Like a fish.
"Thanks to you, I've gained some new insights and understandings—"
Ji Jue raised a finger, smiling silently.
In that instant, under the temple, beneath countless buildings and ruins, countless black flames reignited, raging wildly like pouring oil on a fire, instantly engulfing the entire world.
Everything, under the shroud of black flames, quickly collapsed.
Just like the spectacular scene of eternity's obliteration once upon a time, the all-encompassing Firestorm Flame surged like tides, but in the end, with Ji Jue's raised finger, it gathered, landing at his fingertip.
Finally, turned into a point of dim light, devouring all brilliance.
Slowly, bit by bit, it approached Wuyou, reflected in those rapidly contracting pupils.
"Fire... Firestorm..."
He mumbled in terrifying confusion, his pupils dilating.
"Didn't you mention 'Heavenly Destiny' just now?"
Ji Jue sighed with teasing: "Then, receive your destiny, Wuyou! Just like the eternity of the past... This is the flame you spread, the evil you sowed, which you rightfully should swallow whole!"
He said, "This is the only end that matches you!"
In that moment, a little black fire silently fell into the darkness spread by the Tiger Talisman Seed, suddenly swelling, rising, and exploding!
