The Demon God Realm was already surrounded by an army of gods.
To the gods, the Demon God Realm was merely a target for plunder, not an entity to be taken seriously.
However, Yun Fan, the reincarnation of the First God, and the Great God Baitian, among others, were stationed within the Demon God Realm.
This presented an unstable factor for the gods.
Only by eliminating Yun Fan and the Great God Baitian could they regain their former peak.
Among the gods, aside from several Eight Divisions Heavenly Gods, a heavyweight powerhouse had also appeared.
He was Mi Tuo.
If Tian Sha and the Thunder Division Heavenly God were second only to the Great God Baitian, then Mi Tuo was capable of going toe-to-toe with the Great God Baitian.
Recalling the past, the Great God Baitian had gone to the Dark Land to mend a rift, but his true body was lost there.
If Kuang Shen had not retrieved the Great God Baitian's true body, he would not have reached perfection by now.
The one who had caused the Great God Baitian's true body to be lost in the Dark Land was none other than Mi Tuo.
One could imagine how terrifying Mi Tuo's strength was.
Firstly, his inherent strength was not weaker than the Great God Baitian's, and with the enhancement of evil energy, in the Dark Land, which was his home ground.
Even the Great God Baitian had to abandon his true body to escape.
At this moment, Mi Tuo asked the gods under his command, "Why have we not launched the attack yet?"
Two Eight Divisions Heavenly Gods quickly replied, "Your Highness, the Demon God Realm's defenses are impenetrable, and with the First God's power, it will be difficult to breach it in a short time!"
Upon hearing this, Mi Tuo said dismissively, "Break through it at all costs. I have already promised the Lord of the Gods that I will not rest until the Demon God Realm is taken. Do you want to embarrass me?"
At these words, the gods groaned in misery.
After all, they had only just escaped from the Dark Land and had no time to rest before being rushed here.
Therefore, at this moment, they could only reluctantly work to dismantle the Demon God Realm's defenses.
Unexpectedly, before they could dismantle the Demon God Realm's defenses, Yun Fan and two others charged out.
Alas, facing the vast army of gods, they were only three, appearing desolate.
Despite being only three, their aura was not weak.
"Loser, long time no see!"
Mi Tuo taunted the Great God Baitian playfully.
The Great God Baitian shot him a cold glance, "Mi Tuo, you only won by overwhelming advantage back then. What is there to be proud of!"
"It seems you intend to continue our battle?"
Mi Tuo asked, "Do you still have the courage?"
Facing Mi Tuo's taunts, the Great God Baitian replied, "Of course. I will win in the same way I lost!"
"Very well, I accept your condition!"
Then Mi Tuo looked at Yun Fan.
It had to be said that upon seeing Yun Fan's appearance again, even he was startled.
After all, that was the renowned Eternal First God!
He was also the first being to rival the Lord of the Gods since the beginning of the final era.
Of course, he was the only one.
The reason for his fear was that when Yun Fan was still in the First God's era, even he was merely an insignificant figure before the First God.
That was the gap!
At this moment, he said to Yun Fan, "I didn't expect your vitality to be so terrifying. To have been reborn against all odds in such a desperate situation!"
Yun Fan replied, "The reason I am still alive is because the gods have not yet been extinguished!"
"Then I can only say that you will never have that chance!"
Before Yun Fan could retort, he turned his gaze to Kuang Shen.
Kuang Shen was a fearless individual.
Even in the face of Mi Tuo's pressure, Kuang Shen maintained his arrogant demeanor.
"You know the fate of a traitor!"
Mi Tuo said, though his words were gentle, they were almost a death sentence for Kuang Shen.
Kuang Shen then said, "I will never regret following the First God. I am not a traitor to the gods; I am the only god among the gods who is not a traitor!"
Upon hearing this, Mi Tuo sneered, "Since that is the case, I will send you, the traitor, on your way!"
In an instant, Mi Tuo attacked, condensing a dark Buddhist seal and striking towards Kuang Shen.
"Do you consider me nonexistent?"
The Great God Baitian took the brunt of it, blocking Mi Tuo's Buddhist seal.
But in the next moment, his expression changed, not for any other reason than that Mi Tuo's true target was not Kuang Shen, but Yun Fan.
"Be careful!"
The Great God Baitian quickly warned Yun Fan.
Yun Fan, who was already prepared, resisted the dark Buddhist seal with all his might, but he was still forced to retreat by the impact.
"Hmm?"
Mi Tuo did not expect Yun Fan to withstand it and not die, only sustaining injuries.
"It seems your growth rate is not to be underestimated, so we must kill you even more!"
Mi Tuo said coldly.
If Yun Fan were allowed to grow further and become the peak Eternal First God, even the gods would have to lie low.
Do not forget that in Yun Fan's peak era, he had perished along with four evil path powerhouses of the same level!
At this moment, Yun Fan said, "I fear you cannot kill me!"
"Is that so?"
Mi Tuo charged forward again, intending to drag Yun Fan into his dark divine Buddha.
However, at the critical moment, the Great God Baitian took the initiative, entering the dark divine Buddha with Mi Tuo.
Although Mi Tuo did not wish to fight the Great God Baitian at this moment, as he only wanted to kill Yun Fan, the Great God Baitian's actions forced him to fight.
At this time, the remaining two Eight Divisions Heavenly Gods set their sights on Yun Fan and Kuang Shen.
Yun Fan then said to Kuang Shen, "You deal with the rest. These two are mine!"
"Yes!"
Kuang Shen nodded, showing no concern for Yun Fan, as he knew that the High God was no longer what he used to be.
At this moment, Yun Fan stood before the Rain Division Heavenly God and the Wind Division Heavenly God.
One male and one female, they were also the only pair of Eight Divisions Heavenly Gods who were a couple among the gods.
Although they only possessed the strength of Eight Divisions Heavenly Gods, their combined strength surpassed that of Eight Divisions Heavenly Gods.
They were likely second only to peerless powerhouses like the Thunder Division Heavenly God.
"Why are you two afraid?"
Yun Fan said with certainty, clearly sensing their fear.
To be honest, although Yun Fan was far from the peak powerhouse of the First God's era,
When facing Yun Fan, they still trembled inwardly. It was not for any other reason than that they had witnessed firsthand, in the past, the First God dispatching powerhouses of their level as if chopping vegetables.
Therefore, when facing the former First God again, they were more or less afraid.
"First God, you are no longer the king you once were. Why should we fear you?"
The Wind Division Heavenly God said.
At the same time, malevolent thoughts once again occupied their bodies and took control, so they no longer feared Yun Fan.
Instead, they harbored hatred. After all, among the many malevolent thoughts that possessed the gods, many were the descendants of those evil path powerhouses killed by the First God back then.
Therefore, it was understandable that they were filled with anger when facing Yun Fan.
The Rain Division Heavenly God charged forward first.
Even with the enhancement of evil path power, after one move against the Rain Division Heavenly God, Yun Fan held the absolute advantage.
Following that, the Wind Division Heavenly God, not to be outdone, joined forces with the Rain Division Heavenly God. After merging, they displayed their strongest state.
At this moment, both their strength and aura were more than a notch above Yun Fan's.
"What a peculiar maneuver for a hermaphrodite!"
Yun Fan was truly shocked, for their merger was a literal one! The two merged into one.
There were only two heads, making them look extremely strange.
"You're still spouting nonsense as death approaches!"
As soon as the Rain Division Heavenly God spoke, they unleashed a combined attack that sent Yun Fan staggering back.
"Interesting!"
Yun Fan immediately turned and fled.
"Stop!"
They immediately pursued, as the gods had made a grand show of force precisely to kill Yun Fan.
As long as Yun Fan was dead, the gods would have no more worries. Therefore, at this moment, they had only one objective: Yun Fan.
The life or death of others was irrelevant to them.
...
At this moment, within the dark divine Buddha, the battle between the Great God Baitian and Mi Tuo had reached a fever pitch.
Undeniably, Mi Tuo was too strong. Within the dark divine Buddha, he was almost invincible.
But the Great God Baitian was not weak either. Even in Mi Tuo's domain, he could remain undefeated.
Do not forget that he was the only one in the later era to rival the gods with a mortal body.
Perhaps, given time, he could have reached the level of the First God and the Lord of the Gods.
Therefore, when facing Mi Tuo, he performed no less impressively.
"Great God Baitian, surrender! You are powerless to stop anything, let alone resist me!"
Mi Tuo said playfully.
He did not take the Great God Baitian seriously, for in his eyes, if he could defeat the Great God Baitian once, he could defeat him a second time.
The Great God Baitian said coldly, "Wishful thinking! Mi Tuo, this is no longer your home ground. You are not qualified to be arrogant with me!"
"Is that so?"
In the next moment, Mi Tuo let out a cold laugh, and behind him, a divine Buddha phantom appeared.
If it were in the era of the First God, this towering divine Buddha phantom would have been filled with holiness and peace.
But now it was different. This divine Buddha phantom was filled with darkness, and of course, it had become stronger than before.
Therefore, at this moment, Mi Tuo had absolute confidence in himself. He unleashed his ultimate move from the start, aiming for a quick victory.
Facing Mi Tuo's pressure, the Great God Baitian's first thought was defense.
Unexpectedly, the moment the dark divine Buddha attacked, it sent the Great God Baitian flying.
Mi Tuo smiled playfully, "It seems you haven't improved!"
In his opinion, the current Great God Baitian was weaker than his past self.
However, this was merely the Great God Baitian's strategy. By the time Mi Tuo realized it, the Great God Baitian had already left Mi Tuo's domain.
Mi Tuo was enraged and immediately pursued.
Only then did he discover that the Great God Baitian had not fled but was waiting for him outside the domain.
The Great God Baitian was not foolish; he knew he could not gain any advantage within the divine Buddha's domain.
Back then, he had been too impulsive, fighting Mi Tuo head-on within the dark divine Buddha's domain, ultimately failing to defeat Mi Tuo and allowing Mi Tuo to wait for reinforcements, forcing him to abandon his true body to escape.
The Great God Baitian would not make the same mistake a second time.
"Is that so?"
The Great God Baitian said calmly, "Our battle begins now!"
"Heavenly Slaughter!"
In the next moment, Mi Tuo unleashed his ultimate move again. As one of the elites among the gods, his strength was undeniable.
Just these skills alone instilled despair.
"Unbeatable Faith!"
The Great God Baitian shouted.
The two powerhouses, at this moment, engaged in their ultimate confrontation.
Boom!
As the divine power spread across the heavens, both the Great God Baitian and Mi Tuo were forced back. Although they had both unleashed their ultimate moves,
No victor was decided, and the situation remained evenly matched.
Following that, the Great God Baitian charged forward with his unbeaten power, clashing head-on with Mi Tuo.
"Are you in such a hurry to die?"
Mi Tuo clasped his hands together, pulling down the divine Buddha phantom, and engaged in an ultimate power clash with the Great God Baitian.
The previously even match shifted, as Mi Tuo shamelessly used evil path power, putting the Great God Baitian back at a disadvantage.
"You dare not fight me with your true strength!"
The Great God Baitian said coldly, "Therefore, you must rely on evil path power to confront me head-on!"
Hearing this, Mi Tuo said disdainfully, "Even with evil path power, when it is gathered within me, it becomes my strongest power. What can you do to contend with me?"
At this moment, Mi Tuo looked down on the Great God Baitian.
Hearing this, the Great God Baitian said coldly, "Don't get happy too soon! Since I have witnessed your domain, now you should witness mine!"
At that very moment, the Great God Baitian unleashed his Unbeaten Eternity.
He pulled Mi Tuo into his domain.
"With the augmentation of Holy Path power, you cannot change anything, not even in your domain!"
Mi Tuo said with a playful smile.
The Holy Path power he prided himself on was actually evil path power, but they did not perceive it as evil.
Instead, they believed it to be their ultimate treasure to transcend everything.
Not only him, but even the gods, and the Lord of the Gods, believed this to be the ultimate secret.
At this moment, the Great God Baitian said, "I told you not to get happy too soon!"
At that very instant, the Great God Baitian attacked again, engaging in a clash of power with Mi Tuo.
It had to be said that Mi Tuo's physical body was too powerful.
Before he became corrupted, he had cultivated as an ascetic for eighty-one epochs, reaching this level.
Therefore, in terms of physical strength, he was likely stronger than the Great God Baitian.
But at this moment, the Great God Baitian reforged his true body, meeting brute force with sharp offense, coupled with Unbeaten Eternity.
He could contend with Mi Tuo.
They battled for over hundreds of moves within this Unbeaten Eternity.
Even Unbeaten Eternity was close to being shattered.
At this point, both were severely wounded.
"Why don't you run?"
Mi Tuo sneered.
In his opinion, the Great God Baitian's actions were somewhat abnormal.
If Yun Fan did not run, then the one who would win in the end would be him. With the augmentation of evil path power, his vitality bar was much thicker than the Great God Baitian's.
The Great God Baitian's actions were completely reckless.
But the Great God Baitian said, "There's no need to run. If I dared to fight you to the death back then, why wouldn't I dare now?"
"Your courage is admirable, but this is not a wise choice!"
In the next moment, Mi Tuo changed his target and completely shattered Unbeaten Eternity.
"Now, how many chances of victory do you think you have?"
Mi Tuo asked coldly, looking at the Great God Baitian.
The Great God Baitian replied, "Ninety percent chance!"
"You think highly of yourself!"
Mi Tuo did not want to waste any more time. While eliminating the Great God Baitian was a significant matter, Yun Fan was his ultimate target.
Therefore, he intended to finish off the Great God Baitian quickly.
If only the Great God Baitian died and Yun Fan escaped, then the war of the gods would not even achieve one-third of its objective.
As expected, with Mi Tuo unleashing his ultimate move, his entire body was instantly enveloped by evil path power, and he instantly recovered to his peak.
He even surpassed his peak.
Now, he possessed an absolute suppressive advantage over the Great God Baitian.
"Now!"
In an instant, the Great God Baitian attacked.
A punch landed on Mi Tuo.
But Mi Tuo's eyes turned blood red, "I'm very sorry, but your move is nothing more than a tickle to me!"
Then, with a backhand palm strike, he sent the Great God Baitian flying.
Even the Great God Baitian, who was unparalleled throughout history and the only one in the later era to rival the gods, was in a sorry state at this moment.
The Great God Baitian said, "Did you think I was foolish enough to believe that punch could gravely injure you?"
"What do you mean?"
Mi Tuo asked, feeling that there was more to the Great God Baitian's words.
"You will know soon enough!"
The Great God Baitian sneered.
As expected, in that instant, Mi Tuo felt his entire body of evil path power burning.
"No, it's the bloodline power of the First God!"
Mi Tuo's expression turned to horror. He knew that in that era, he had personally witnessed four beings of the same level as the First God being burned alive.
No, it should be two.
Because the remaining two were sent away by the First God in a self-detonating state.
"So this is your means!"
Mi Tuo was furious.
But was it too late to realize this now?
He tried every method to salvage the situation, but the raging flames could not be extinguished.
Mi Tuo let out a series of screams. Such pain was definitely not something a god could endure.
Only when he finally dispelled all the evil path power did the flames stop burning.
But undeniably, he was no longer in an invincible state.
The Great God Baitian said, "Is this your so-called ultimate power? It is no match for the First God's bloodline!"
Mi Tuo's expression was one of horror, and he began to doubt his life.
He never expected that the ultimate power they had been desperately pursuing, even when augmented to the gods, could not match the Battle God bloodline.
At this moment, Mi Tuo said coldly to the Great God Baitian, "I underestimated your methods, but you have not won yet!"
In the next moment, Mi Tuo ignored the gods and turned to flee.
Indeed, the gods were completely stunned. They never expected that the fearless Mi Tuo would abandon them and flee alone.
Undoubtedly, this was beyond their expectations.
They had the belief of being invincible because Mi Tuo had always stood behind them. But now that their mighty tree had fallen, did they still have the courage to fight?
Just as they were frozen, contemplating whether to flee, Kuang Shen made his move, directly scattering Yun Fan's bloodline power towards the gods.
The gods were burning, crying out in agony.
The remaining weaker gods were then defeated by the army of the Demon God Realm, led by Chi Xian, who arrived later.
This battle seemed to have concluded entirely, but everyone knew that it was merely the beginning.
For the ultimate contest had yet to be decided.
The battle between the Great God Baitian and Mi Tuo was still somewhat traceable, but the battle between Yun Fan and the two Eight Divisions Heavenly Gods left no trace.
"Trying to escape? Impossible!"
The Great God Baitian said coldly. He would absolutely not give Mi Tuo a chance to escape.
Mi Tuo, whose body was on the verge of being completely burned, exploded the moment he collided with the Great God Baitian's power.
Under duress, he could only abandon his physical body and escape, meaning he abandoned his true form.
Only in this way could he escape faster.
Unexpectedly, the Great God Baitian also went all out, abandoning his true body and entrusting it to Kuang Shen for safekeeping. Then, his divine soul spread across the heavens, blocking Mi Tuo's path.
Mi Tuo's expression became grave.
For him, true despair had just begun. Looking at the divine soul of the Great God Baitian, which was full and complete, and then at his own cracked divine soul,
How could he contend with the Great God Baitian? At this point, the two were not even on the same level.
Mi Tuo no longer had his former arrogance and confident demeanor; all that remained was dejection and despair.
"Mi Tuo, you have cultivated for eighty-one epochs, and you still cannot see through life and death?"
The Great God Baitian said, "If you are afraid of death, then I have misjudged you!"
Of course, the Great God Baitian did not blush at all when he said this.
Although he had also abandoned his true body and fled back then, the circumstances were different.
It was not that he was afraid of death, but that he had to mend the rift.
Therefore, he could not die. As for Mi Tuo, it was entirely due to defeat and escape. Both were escapes, but the outcomes were completely opposite.
Mi Tuo's face was extremely unsightly at this moment.
In that brief moment, he had directly abandoned the gods and fled, completely tarnishing his image in their eyes.
By the time he reacted, it was too late to rectify it.
At this moment, Mi Tuo meditated with his divine soul, "I will not flee again! Great God Baitian, today, I will engage in a fated battle with you!"
"Exactly as I wish!"
The Great God Baitian replied, "We will both fight in our divine soul states, and it will not be considered bullying you!"
"Hmph!"
Mi Tuo ceased his pointless chatter with the Great God Baitian and unleashed his Myriad Heavens Divine Buddhas.
However, unlike before, this time, dozens of Myriad Heavens Divine Buddhas phantoms appeared behind Mi Tuo.
A total of eighty-one, corresponding to his eighty-one tribulations.
"Are you finally going to unleash your ultimate move?"
If it were an ordinary person, they would have chosen to tactically retreat at this moment, deeming it unnecessary to charge forward.
But the Great God Baitian was not an ordinary person; he was an extraordinary one.
Therefore, at this moment, he chose to clash head-on with Mi Tuo.
Mi Tuo saw this and praised, "It seems that in the later era, you are the only one who can rival the gods without any pretense. Your strength has earned my recognition!"
"So, you intend to perish together with me?"
The Great God Baitian asked directly. Although being recognized by a second-tier god was a glorious thing,
The Great God Baitian showed no emotion, for in his eyes, the best recognition was to kill the opponent and end their existence with his strength.
There was no recognition better than this.
"That is my intention!"
In the next moment, Mi Tuo propelled the Myriad Heavens Divine Buddhas forward. This time, he did not use the remaining evil path power.
Instead, he used his original strength.
Indeed, both of them were so persistent. After all, they had not defeated each other with their original strength in the past.
Therefore, at this moment, Mi Tuo did not use evil path power, and the Great God Baitian did not use Yun Fan's Battle God power.
They would display their strongest selves within their respective domains.
It had to be said that both were extremely persistent individuals.
Boom!
In an instant, the heavens and earth collapsed, and the divine Buddhas shattered. The divine Buddha phantoms behind Mi Tuo shattered one by one.
The Great God Baitian's situation was also not good; his Battle God power was also shattering.
It seemed that they would not give up until the very last moment.
Finally, Mi Tuo exhausted all his divine Buddha phantoms.
The Great God Baitian still had a trace of his Battle God power remaining.
Clearly, Mi Tuo had lost. Although the Great God Baitian had won, the final outcome was a hard-fought victory.
At this moment, he said to Mi Tuo, "I have won. I am the second being after the First God to kill a god with a mortal body!"
At this moment, even the Great God Baitian gave himself high recognition.
"That's right, you have won!"
Mi Tuo said to the Great God Baitian, "It seems gods are not truly invincible! Mortals also possess infinite potential!"
"It's a pity that I was so immersed in the Holy Path power that I couldn't extricate myself. If I hadn't given up and continued my ascetic cultivation, perhaps, after so many more epochs, I could have reached a higher level. Perhaps this is truly the evil path power. In the end, I merely stood still, being self-contained, without any progress!"
This was Mi Tuo's regret.
However, no matter how much he regretted it, it was ultimately fleeting. He had lost, and as a loser, he knew what that meant.
The Great God Baitian also said, "Evil path power has never been orthodox. The First God discovered it first, and I also believe in the First God's path!"
Heroes understand each other. Although Mi Tuo was not a hero, he saw his past in the Great God Baitian.
Both were persistent individuals, but unfortunately, he had ultimately taken a wrong step.
One wrong step meant an eternity.
Subsequently, his divine soul began to dissipate, but before it vanished, he continued to warn the Great God Baitian, "Never follow my path; my path leads nowhere!"
"Don't worry, if I wanted to follow your path, I would have done so long ago. Why would I wait until now!"
The Great God Baitian was not foolish; perhaps this was the difference between mortals and gods!
Gods were inherently powerful but lacked the wise judgment of mortals.
Finally, Mi Tuo perished, and his last words were, "Apologize to the First God for me. Our divine race has ultimately failed him!"
"I will!"
The Great God Baitian nodded.
...
On the other side, the battle between Yun Fan and the two Eight Divisions Heavenly Gods had only just begun.
"Are you not planning to run anymore?"
The two sneered, believing that Yun Fan had chosen to give up running when he knew he couldn't escape.
However, Yun Fan said, "I never chose to run; I merely did not want to damage my arrangements!"
Remember, the Great God Baitian had taken Mi Tuo far away to prevent the Demon God Realm's defenses from being damaged.
The combined strength of the remaining two Eight Divisions Heavenly Gods still posed a significant threat to the Demon God Realm's defenses.
Therefore, Yun Fan had lured them here.
As for the remaining gods, they had become vulnerable. Kuang Shen's slaughter of them was like slicing vegetables; he did not need to worry about them.
The Rain Division Heavenly God disdainfully said, "First God, did you ever imagine you would have such a wretched day?"
Even now, they did not believe this was Yun Fan's plan, only that Yun Fan had reached the end of his rope.
They harbored immense hatred for Yun Fan, as they had descended to the mortal realm to harvest life force in the past.
Unexpectedly, Yun Fan had almost annihilated them.
They had always remembered this account. Even though the former First God had perished, they still harbored this hatred. Now, they finally had the opportunity for revenge.
At this moment, Yun Fan said, "That is only what you believe. I am in decline, but I have not reached my end. Believe it when you see it!"
In the next moment, Yun Fan stopped talking nonsense and directly unleashed the Battle God's Fist, striking towards the merged pair.
Bang!
After exchanging a punch, Yun Fan stood his ground, but the merged divine beings were sent reeling backward.
It could be said that Yun Fan at this moment was completely different from the Yun Fan just moments ago.
This greatly moved them, and they realized they had been deceived by Yun Fan.
"We've been tricked!"
The Wind Division Heavenly God had a premonition of danger.
But the Rain Division Heavenly God said, "As long as we, husband and wife, are united, he cannot turn the tide!"
In the next moment, the merged pair unleashed the Wind and Rain Divine Arts, charging directly at Yun Fan.
Although it was not a fierce and overbearing power, this seemingly gentle force severely restricted Yun Fan's freedom.
"Die!"
As the Wind and Rain Divine Arts struck Yun Fan, they unleashed the evil path power again, causing a second layer of suppression.
Of course, in their opinion, this was not enough. To be safe, the third layer of suppression was delivered by their own power.
Under this triple layer of suppression, they were confident that Yun Fan, no matter how defiant, would perish.
However, in the next moment, Yun Fan suddenly appeared behind them.
"You two, your performance shocked me, but it's useless!"
Indeed, this was his true body. What the two had reduced to ashes just now was merely his clone. No matter how many clones died, he would not feel heartache.
"What?"
The two's expressions changed. They had unleashed their ultimate moves, only to find they had only slain a negligible clone.
If nothing unexpected happened, they would now be completely at a disadvantage, unless their ultimate moves' cooldown period ended, or Mi Tuo finished off the Great God Baitian and came to their aid.
However, in Yun Fan's eyes, all of this was merely unrealistic fantasy.
The bearing of the First God, after countless epochs, once again illuminated the final era.
