Chapter 2450: Indestructible and Immortal
The simplest way to kill Xiao Feng is to erase him from the material plane, eliminate the space source substance, and throw him into a higher-dimensional universe.
Then the covetous pseudo-source beings would immediately find an opportunity to devour him, killing him beyond any chance of revival.
But how could ordinary beings possibly destroy the space source substance?
Even a Super Eternal expert could at most tear open a gap the size of an atom!
Destroying the space source substance is completely different from ripping space apart.
Space rupture is what is commonly called a space rift; beneath the rift lies space turbulence, appearing shattered but still within the universe. So-called space turbulence is merely a superposition of multiple spaces inside the universe, so after escaping one might appear anywhere.
But destroying the space source substance means destroying the universe!
That is called the great collapse of the universe!
Not to mention Di Jiang; even his master, Cang Qiong Zhu, would find it hard to accomplish!
In the previous battle near the Law Source Body God Mountain, the Master of the Great Era, honoring the Dao Ancestor, sacrificed his own Dao Fruit, paying the price of a temporary drop in realm, before managing to blast a huge gap in the space source substance.
Such power is far beyond what Di Jiang can match, like the light of a star compared to a tiny firefly—no calculation needed.
If space is undefeated, then matter and energy are eternal and indestructible.
Xiao Feng has reached the point of immortality and indestructibility; his soul merges with his flesh, which can exist as subdivided particles. Unless the Dao Ancestor forcibly suppresses him by dividing the Great Dao's perception with law, no one can do anything to him.
Even the Dao Ancestor might be unable to kill him; as long as a single particle of his body remains, he can revive at any moment.
"What... what kind of law is this?" Di Jiang looked at the unharmed Xiao Feng, and unease began to rise in his heart.
Xiao Feng
He replied, "Material law. We crossed blows in the game; you should know."
Di Jiang knew that, but he didn't realize Xiao Feng's grasp of material law had reached such a degree.
"Again!"
Driven by panic, he struck again, using divine power and law simultaneously to launch a violent storm-like assault on Xiao Feng's corporeal form.
Xiao Feng remained utterly still, floating silently in the air, letting him have his way.
Not striking would be fine, but as soon as he attacked, Di Jiang's scalp went numb!
No matter what secret technique or forbidden law he used, Xiao Feng could instantly restore himself to his original state, without the slightest damage!
His divine power remained undiminished, his flesh unchanged, like a clear pool that stays the same no matter how many cuts you make.
Even as the pool water might gradually evaporate, Xiao Feng truly loses not a single particle—no matter how you strike, he remains unharmed!
The more Di Jiang struck, the more astonished and terrified he became.
"Impossible! This is impossible!"
He was afraid!
Faced with Xiao Feng's near-perfect mastery of material law, already infinitely close to the Dao Ancestor's realm, he finally realized he was no match!
"Flee!"
Now the only thing he can do is escape from this place!
"Whoosh!"
Di Jiang turned, a pair of metallic wings sprouting from his back; a single flap carried him tens of millions of kilometers, swiftly distancing himself from Xiao Feng.
At the same time he withdrew his Mirror Space, preparing to instantaneously return to his senior brothers' side.
The Mirror Space dissolved, and the outside world became visible again.
But before Di Jiang could teleport, another Mirror Space suddenly formed!
"This is..."
He widened his eyes in disbelief.
Xiao Feng smiled faintly and said, "What you learned from me. How is it? Do you grasp any of the essence?"
"..."
Di Jiang had nothing left to say.
Xiao Feng's Mirror Space was the same size as his, but
it was more stable.
How did he achieve that?
Through his insights over thirty million years in the virtual universe, the Dao Ancestor's guidance, his own cultivation, and repeated transformations after entering the real world, he finally reached this point and mastered such a secret technique.
How come, upon reaching Xiao Feng, it seems he can learn it at a glance?
He didn't know that Xiao Feng, too, wasn't someone who could master it instantly; no matter how talented, he hadn't reached such a monstrous level.
Mainly, he had already accumulated vast insights into space law over 170 million years, laying a sufficient foundation. Seeing Di Jiang's methods, he immediately turned knowledge into application, and with the accelerated comprehension speed from the time law, he could thus wield it effortlessly.
Di Jiang pressed down with a big hand, trying to break open the Mirror Space.
But Xiao Feng's Mirror Space was extremely sturdy, not something that could be shattered in a short time.
"Heaven-Burying One, our affairs should also be completely ended." Xiao Feng said.
He released the power of law, remotely seizing Di Jiang's corporeal form; material law decomposed it, gradually turning it into primordial source particles that flowed toward himself.
"No, no!" Di Jiang horrifiedly discovered his body seemed to lose control, his divine power draining at extreme speed, his flesh crumbling bit by bit.
He roared, "Xiao Feng! I have no grudge against you—why do you seek my life?"
"Huh, why are we suddenly without grudge?" Xiao Feng chuckled.
Back when his level was still low, upon entering the Chaos Immortal Realm, he was frightened by Di Jiang; a single slap shattered the entire realm—a truly terrifying sight.
Carrying the Chaos Tree, Xiao Feng long harbored a hidden worry: not knowing when he would be sought out by the Heaven-Burying Emperor Di
Jiang to find something to kill him with.
Afterwards, when they formally met in the Burial Dao Realm, Di Jiang also called them fated enemies.
And yet now he comes out with a line about having no grudge?
You were scared stupid before dying, right?
Di Jiang struggled and shouted: "We were never acquainted to begin with; all grudges originated from the Hundun Immortal Realm! That was merely an illusory world. Now both of us are powerhouses in the real universe—why must we press each other so?"
Xiao Feng shook his head: "The myriad heavens are not illusory; they simply lack a material medium, so they cannot be touched. Every soul there, every love and hate, every day's experience, is real. I built a family and career in the myriad-heavens world; although it is now desolate and its power level far inferior to what I now encounter, I have never forgotten—it is where I made my start, where I met my guide and first touched the Great Dao of cultivation."
"The organizer of the Ninefold Heavenly Dao, Jiu Xuan Tian Zun, is the one you killed; the founder of the Tenfold Heavenly Dao, the Hundun Immortal Emperor, his death is related to you; even the later downfall of the War Ancient State was secretly fueled by you! So, what you said is correct—we are destined enemies."
"Not only you, but also your master Cang Qiong Zhu—I will challenge him someday."
In the midst of speaking, Di Jiang's Li Ti has already been disintegrated by nearly a third, leaving him weakened and greatly diminished in strength.
He roared unwillingly: "The grudges of past days are between me and the ancient human emperor of the virtual world—what do they have to do with you?"
Xiao Feng smiled: "The preacher is my teacher and has shown me kindness; the enemy of my benefactor is my enemy. Killing you—is there a problem?"
"I am unwilling! I am unwilling!!" Di Jiang bellowed in grief and indignation.
He had thought he would come to
In this world, having come into contact with higher-level laws, relying on talent and wit, he had a chance to break through limits, surpass the Kun Peng, and become a Dao Ancestor.
But in the end, he fell into Xiao Feng's hands, becoming a wandering soul.
Xiao Feng continued to disintegrate Di Jiang's Li Ti; strands of divine power turned into primal force, like surging rivers, rushing toward him.
Di Jiang weakened while Xiao Feng strengthened; the total energy did not decrease, it merely changed destination.
Xiao Feng said: "I think you should learn from Kun Peng—after losing to me, he immediately lowered his proud head and acknowledged me as his teacher. Though I did not take him as a disciple, I spared him and gave him some guidance over the years. As for you… it's too late to regret."
Di Jiang's hoarse cries echoed within the mirror space; his body had shattered into fragments, like a huge sea sponge.
"Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng! Don't get cocky! I am the master's most beloved disciple of countless years; he will avenge me!!!"
