Chapter 1553: Reached the End

No... is he crazy?

Watching the palm slapping down like the sky covering the earth, the Masters of the Dead Realm who were "holding a meeting" on the top of Zhanhuai Mountain couldn't help but have their minds go blank, simply unable to believe what they were seeing with their own eyes.

Didn't the shooter director of the Bureau come over a few days ago, saying they were prepared to negotiate at the Sage Cemetery in a week? We were still calculating how to set an ambush, and as a result, the Food God of the Bureau directly attacked the door?

"Act!"

After recovering from the shock of being suddenly attacked, the Flesh-Fleshed Doe, locked onto by Hearing Li Ang, was the first to react, directly raising a pair of forest-white deer antlers and bracing itself to meet the palm slapping down from above.

And following its actions, the three locations in the first half of the Dead Realm controlled by the Flesh-Fleshed Doe immediately reacted in unison.

First was 【Burial Clothes Mirror Lake】. The cold lake water, which soaked countless clothes and ornaments, disappeared by more than half in an instant, crossing an extremely long distance and turning into thick water vapor that shrouded the Flesh-Fleshed Doe, exploding into large patches of wet, thick fog on the top of Zhanhuai Mountain.

Immediately following this, the trees in 【Corpse Soil Black Forest】 that blocked the sky withered instantly. Countless corpses hanging from the blood-black branches fell in unison, were swallowed and absorbed by the black mud below, and surged out from all over the Flesh-Fleshed Doe's body, propping up its originally tiny form.

Finally, there was the 【White Bone Palace】, which stood in the first half of the Road of No Return and echoed with the 【Regret City】 in the latter half.

As the incarnated hind actively countered, that giant palace, which had been pale white with streaks of rot-yellow, instantly lost its bone-like color and turned into rock. Meanwhile, the pair of antlers atop the incarnated hind's head surged wildly in the wind like sprouting buds, and with a terrifying momentum, it met Hearing Li Ang's palm, and then...

Broken at the first touch!

The Flesh-Fleshed Doe's counterattack with great momentum only caused the palm above its head to delay slightly, and then, like a mantis raising a sickle against a giant elephant, its antlers broke and its neck snapped, its body pounced and the fog dissipated, and it suffered a devastating crushing in an instant!

Although the locations it controlled were all in the first half of the Road of No Return and the quality of the souls collected was slightly worse, the Flesh-Fleshed Doe, which could control three locations, was still more than a line stronger than the Wailing Puppet. Even if it was not in its own territory, it had power close to the Pillar God level.

Unfortunately, Hearing Li Ang, who had razed the entire 【Regret City】 and waded all the way from 【Ghost Mist Swamp】, had already collected more than 20 million souls under his command. If one doesn't count the truth and only looks at power, he was among the top batch even among Pillar Gods. The hard power of the two sides differed by a whole major stage!

The sneak attack with intent against the unintentional, plus the overly huge gap in hard power, caused the Flesh-Fleshed Doe's resistance to have no effect at all.

Under Hearing Li Ang's unimaginably heavy palm, even though it expanded its own body size by hundreds of times, it was still slapped to death on the spot by a "heavy palm." The entire deer was spread evenly on the platform on the top of Zhanhuai Mountain like a rat slice crushed by a road roller, covered in a thick layer of blood.

Although this blow was only the purest power suppression and didn't have time to cover the erosion of authority, the Flesh-Fleshed Doe, whose physical body was destroyed, still suffered unimaginably heavy injuries. Its soul, filled with confusion, headed directly for the Cliff of Finality...

"Come back!!!"

Relying on the time delayed by the Flesh-Fleshed Doe, and having narrowly avoided Hearing Li Ang's attack, the Mountain-Patrolling Woman, who controlled 【Zhanhuai Mountain】, couldn't help but roar. Then, relying on 【Zhanhuai Mountain】's ability to detain dead souls, she forcibly grabbed the Flesh-Fleshed Doe's soul, finally preventing it from following in the Wailing Puppet's footsteps.

And on the other side, the Faceless Person without facial features breathed a sigh of relief, still shaken, and immediately launched a counterattack with a cold face.

As the Master of the Dead Realm most skilled at playing with souls, it only took one look... one face to understand the situation. What truly gave Hearing Li Ang such immense power was not the two weak authorities themselves, but the more than 20 million "high-quality" dead souls he had brought along. Those dead souls with relatively "poor" soul quality almost only needed to take a trip to 【Black and White Bridge】 or 【Funeral Corridor】 to be stripped of all traces of their previous lives and leave along the Road of No Return in a daze.

And with the Sage Cemetery as the dividing line, those dead souls who could pass through there and continue to move backward, or even stay at a location in the latter half all year round, either possessed obsessions that were unimaginably powerful, or the quality of their souls was astonishingly high.

The Food God had come all the way from Regret City, and probably had completely hollowed out the "high-quality" dead souls accumulated over the past few hundred years in several locations in the latter half of the Road of No Return. Now his power was simply irresistible.

In the entire Dead Realm, except for the 【First Dead One】 who created the Road of No Return and the 【Lantern-Holding Old Man】 who temporarily managed the Cliff of Finality, whoever faced him head-on would only have a dead end. So the only way to solve him was to first "wash" away these dead souls he controlled!

"Don't go head-to-head with him!"

After shouting at the Mountain-Patrolling Woman and the Flesh-Fleshed Doe, who was re-condensing its physical body, the Faceless Person's figure instantly dispersed and disappeared from the top of Zhanhuai Mountain. Replacing it was an ancient stone bridge with black and white mixed colors.

After moving the 【Black and White Bridge】 it controlled entirely over, and before Hearing Li Ang could launch his next attack, the Faceless Person completely dismantled the large black and white stone bridge, turning it into countless black or white strip stones, which rolled down along the ridge of Zhanhuai Mountain.

And every time these strip stones rolling on the ridge jumped, their body size would expand violently, like countless giant rolling logs falling sideways, smashing toward the countless dead souls at the foot of Zhanhuai Mountain.

Even before they truly smashed into their targets, these giant black or white strip stones, like giant magnets, forcibly attracted all the dead souls nearby, and relying on the rules of the Black and White Bridge, drew away all the beautiful or painful memories of all the dead souls.

And after their memories were forcibly taken away, the dead souls, whose thinking had become completely blank, had already lost the ability to provide fear, and the turbulent Heart Lake naturally calmed down quickly, shaking off the dual extraction of the 【Heart Lake】 badge and 【Nightmare is Fear】.

Reacted really fast.

Please... collect... this!

Seeing that the Masters of the Dead Realm had already discovered his weakness and launched an attack on his "source of power," Hearing Li Ang couldn't help but sigh inwardly, knowing that he was about to reach his limit.

Although relying on the matching of badges and authority, he temporarily possessed power exceeding that of a Pillar God, the Masters of the Dead Realm were not fools either. It was impossible to be easily smashed through by him like this; they would definitely find ways to weaken his power.

And for these Masters of the Dead Realm, the death of the physical body is not true death. Only the erosion from authority can truly endanger their lives. When he was in Regret City, he controlled 15 million dead souls and ate the Wailing Puppet's avatar, which was the process of authority erosion.

And now, under the situation where the three Masters of Death were helping each other, although he could kill their physical bodies a few times, he simply had no opportunity to use authority for erosion. It seems that this time he can only do this much...

Well... or maybe not necessarily?
