Pretending To Be A Boss

Neither faster, nor stronger.

Even due to the consumption of physical strength, Tang Xian felt this punch had weakened.

He subconsciously made a blocking motion, ready to counterattack.

But when the Red Emperor's fist approached Tang Xian, the cold sweat overflowed like waves rising from the sea of consciousness, bringing a great sense of crisis.

The next second, Tang Xian only felt a burning pain in his soul.

The Heart of Eden also displayed a very special phrase.

[Warning, unknown attribute attack detected!]

Since the seven-day rule, Tang Xian had never received a similar prompt.

The Heart of Eden is a crystallization of hundreds of years of effort by the Master of Eden and the Sons of Human Order, a super technology that surpasses the Ordinaries. Possessing the Heart of Eden, Tang Xian was almost equivalent to becoming an artificial Master of Eden.

It was the first time he encountered an existence that could still harm him after reaching the maximum resistance value.

"Impossible..."

A line typically uttered by villains was spoken by Tang Xian.

What followed was the Red Emperor, like the reincarnation of the destructor!

It attacked Tang Xian relentlessly with a series of fierce punches.

The scene before Tang Xian's eyes became blurry, and everything around him turned blood red.

The world seemed to turn upside down.

He watched the Red Emperor's fist coming again, carrying a terrifying force that penetrated his chest.

The fist had not yet reached him, but the wind from the punch had already arrived.

The hot air wave made Tang Xian's consciousness clear slightly, he tried his best to dodge this punch, but his mind had already calculated that he could not avoid the Red Emperor at his current speed.

The effect of the second-stage talent's burning was also about to end, he suddenly felt somewhat desperate.

But at that moment, the Red Emperor's punch suddenly halted.

Tang Xian didn't know what happened, it was as if the Red Emperor was suddenly interrupted by some intense pain. He didn't miss this opportunity and immediately propelled himself far away.

Boom!

The Red Emperor's body crashed to the ground, its breathing became rapid, its body burning like flames.

Tang Xian summoned his trident, ready to drive the currents to guard himself.

In this desperate moment, he had no luxury to consider how the Red Emperor suddenly managed to hurt him, but suddenly, looking at the wounds on the Red Emperor, Tang Xian seemed to realize something.

The Red Emperor's attack was fierce, but Tang Xian hadn't hit the Red Emperor just now.

The Red Emperor spat out a mouthful of blood, the pain it endured from opening the domain was far greater than it had imagined.

This is the most domineering domain in the world, and the proudest proof of the destructor reigning supreme—

The Self-burning Realm.

With far greater life force, attack power, defensive power and other attributes than other beasts, the destructor was gradually suppressed by the Master of Eden in battle.

The destructor, who never yielded to rules, tried every possible way and still couldn't find a presence that could match the domain of the Master of Eden.

But with a domineering mindset, the destructor didn't give up.

Since it couldn't find a fair duel domain to restrain the Master of Eden, it created an unfair domain.

It used the properties of the Soul Crystal to forcibly establish a connection with the enemy.

In this state, any damage dealt to the enemy would be reflected six times onto oneself, but this damage could not be erased in any way.

This lopsided domain seemed more like a self-trap, as if it signed an unequal agreement with the opponent.

While inflicting damage on the opponent, it would receive six times the same damage on itself.

But this is precisely what demonstrated the destructor's pride.

It was confident in having six times more defensive power and life force than the Master of Eden and other beast gods!

This state of self-destruction and invincibility is the method by which the destructor deciphered the life laws of the Master of Eden, and also its true essence.

The Red Emperor, bearing six times the damage from Tang Xian, had worse injuries than Tang Xian.

The life recovery speed of Tang Xian was terrifying, but his life force was also astonishing.

The Red Emperor didn't even need to estimate to know that if it continued attacking like this, it would definitely be destroyed by the rebounding force first.

It raised its fist, all its power condensed.

The shattered stones started to shake irregularly, and gradually, the domain that isolated the seawater also began to tremble.

The entire space trembled under the force of the Red Emperor's gathered punch.

Regardless of the consequences, indifferent to life or death.

Only with such awareness would the Self-burning Realm allow oneself to be in an invincible position.

"It's simply... enduring six times the fatal damage, I'll only die once anyway, no loss!"

The explosive power gathered in the Red Emperor's arm made Tang Xian absolutely certain that this punch would definitely kill him!

This was an attack even more fierce than the previous two, and even just performing such an attack would cause irreversible damage to the body.

Tang Xian thought to himself that the Guardians of the Destroyer were indeed just as reckless in battle as the Destroyer himself.

"I surrender!" Tang Xian decisively waved the white flag.

"How can you surrender!" The Red Emperor roared in anger.

"I didn't want to fight you to the death!" Tang Xian was a bit panicked.

Although his body had mostly recovered from the hits he took from the Red Emperor in just a short time, he was certain he couldn't withstand this deadly punch.

"Tang Xian, our conflict has ended, and now, I am representing my master to fight with your master!" The Red Emperor clearly did not accept Tang Xian's surrender.

If Tang Xian hadn't revealed his identity as an inheritor of Eden, the Red Emperor wouldn't have resort to using the Self-burning Realm.

It had already decidedly admitted that it was no match for Tang Xian.

But now, this somewhat single-minded Guardian wanted to defend the dignity of its own master, and it wanted to prove that the master of Eden could be defeated. Even if it meant paying the price of death.

Tang Xian really tried to climb away.

He was not as fast as the Red Emperor, and it was certainly impossible to dodge.

Despite his amazing regenerative ability, facing an attack that could instantly deal damage exceeding his own life limit rendered everything meaningless.

"Calm down, calm down, I need to break down this domain, yes, the real use of these ghost corals must be to support this domain."

Tang Xian didn't respond but was rapidly thinking of strategies to defeat the enemy.

Seeing Tang Xian's gaze directed at the surrounding ghost corals, the Red Emperor did not wait any longer.

The long-built-up punch was finally unleashed—

In that instant, Tang Xian felt like everything was over.

It was as if a black hole was pulling at him, and it was already too late to do anything.

All he could do now—was to take this punch head-on!

"I! Am! The! Supreme! Ruler! Of! This! World!"

The roar of the Red Emperor seemed to travel across the entire ocean!

With each word he uttered, Tang Xian felt himself a step closer to death.

The terrifying punch seemed like it could shatter the ocean! Tang Xian couldn't believe that a disciple of the Destroyer, a calamitous creature, could reach such heights.

Lungs, chest cavity, ribs, spine...

The meridians and bones in his body shattered bit by bit, and even though Tang Xian had made defensive preparations, under the ultimate punch of the Red Emperor, everything around him was obliterated!

In the last thoughts in his mind sea, Tang Xian somewhat regretted his hesitation.

The domain of the Destroyer was ultimately not something ordinary creatures could control, and the Red Emperor still needed to rely on these ghost corals.

Tang Xian thought he should have decisively destroyed these ghost corals.

But it was all too late now.

In his consciousness, there was only a vast whiteness... as if his ethereal spirit had also been pierced by this transcendent punch!

The body of the Red Emperor also began to shatter, suffering much more pain than Tang Xian.

But this battle seemed like it spanned a thousand years...

The Red Emperor strained to keep its eyes open, wanting to witness its victory before being destroyed, even though it could no longer see anything.

The body of Tang Xian shattered... he thought he must have already died.

Is this eternal blankness the afterlife of consciousness?

But as he was thinking this way, not even having time to regret many things, suddenly, the surroundings changed again.

In the vast whiteness of his mind sea... Tang Xian seemed to hear a cry.

A giant bird, like a blue crystal, tore through the blankness!

Simultaneously, the deep sea which was lit by the red light of ghost corals, all of a sudden... was covered by another color.

Beside the red crystals, blue crystal-like structures rapidly formed, covering the entire battlefield with an even crazier speed. The originally flickering red battlefield now became a deep blue hell!

Faintly, Tang Xian felt like his hearing was returning.

He seemed to hear countless lost souls screaming in agony.

This was the arena of the ocean, where countless powerful creatures had died for centuries. They had no Spiritual Purgatory to go to, and at this moment...

They seemed to see the path home, madly surging towards some body about to be shattered!
