The battle situation gradually entered a one-sided rhythm.
The combined army, composed of many forces such as the Kingdom of Monsters, the Kingdom of the Undead, the Church of Phantom Demons, the Reasoning Club, and the Hell Front, has grown exponentially in strength under the premise of mutual coordination and cooperation.
With this kind of military strength, it is difficult for the redundant army to compete with its numerical superiority alone...
About ten minutes later, the casualty rate of redundant soldiers once again exceeded the supply speed of the army line; the originally airtight cloud of soldiers in the sky began to slowly loosen and become sparse from this moment on.
On the other hand, on the ground.
Feng Bujue, who was using the [Rat Hammer] to kill the fighting demon's blood, suddenly spoke after a long silence...
"Well...as expected..." Judging from the tone of his voice when he said this, he must have discovered something.
"What's wrong? Brother Jue." Xiao Tan knew him well, so he immediately asked, "What's the situation?"
"It's not a big deal." Feng Bujue replied calmly, "It's just..." He glanced at the fighting demon in front of him, "I triggered some of this guy's passive abilities."
"What ability?" Xiao Tan then asked.
"Probably something like 'base power'." Feng Bujue replied, "It's the kind of ability that... when the blood volume drops to a certain value, it will be automatically triggered and greatly increase the frequency of defense and blood regeneration."
"Huh?" Xiaotan was shocked when he heard this, "Doesn't that mean..."
"That's right." Feng Bujue continued, "I'm afraid I won't be able to kill him with the [Rat Hammer]..." He paused and explained, "Although he has been recovering blood before, his normal
The recovery power is obviously lower than my blood-cutting efficiency; however, about two minutes ago, when I polished his health volume to about 15%, his health volume suddenly began to rebound, increasing within five seconds.
10%... until his blood volume returned to about 30%, this surge of recovery power gradually returned to normal in a relatively smooth trend.
"Of course, a phenomenon that only happened once can have various explanations, and 'bottom force' is just one of them.
"So, I sped up my hand a little and knocked for another two minutes to see if the same thing would happen when I lowered his blood volume to 15% for the second time. The result..."
At this point, Brother Jue stopped talking and just shrugged.
"Then what should we do?" Xiao Tan thought as he asked, "Otherwise... this time when you reduce his health to 16%, we will work together to see if we can kill the demon with 16% health in seconds.
Already?"
"It doesn't have to be so troublesome." Feng Bujue's response sounded smooth and easy. He knew from the first glance that he already had a countermeasure, "I can handle it by myself."
After saying that, Brother Jue activated his title skill [Devil Arrival].
…………
At that moment, from Feng Bujue's perspective, time seemed to stand still, and the surrounding space was also distorted and changed during this "stillness".
When his consciousness stabilized, he was standing in a space shrouded in black air.
In front of him, there was a pure white figure standing.
Even the Superintendent has never seen a demon fighting in this form; who would have thought that... this flawless white being, which only reminds people of the word "holy", is the one shrouded in demonic energy.
, the purest true form of devil.
"I thought you were very smart." Dou Mo looked at Feng Bujue and said coldly, "I didn't expect... that you would do such a stupid thing that even an idiot would not do."
"Oh?" Feng Bujue replied calmly, "What are you referring to?"
"Of course it's about you using [Dou Mo Advent]." Dou Mo continued.
"Really..." Feng Bujue thought, "Why do you say this is stupid?"
"Nonsense!" Dou Mo shouted impatiently, "Do you think I will lend you my power at this moment? Your behavior is like saying to me...'Hey, please
Help me kill you', how could I possibly do it?"
"Hmm...that makes sense." Feng Bujue muttered.
"Ha..." Dou Mo paused for a second and sneered, "I understand, you think that even if I don't lend you my power, it doesn't matter. The worst thing is that the skill will fail to be cast, and you can just think of other ways...
...right?" Before Brother Jue could answer, Dou Mo answered on his own, "This...is where your real stupidity lies..." As he spoke, he took two steps forward and came to Feng Bujue's side.
In front of him, less than a foot away, he stared at the other person condescendingly and said, "When you borrow power from me, I can pull you into this 'soul space'. As long as I pull you here
If you kill me, your body outside will also die! Once you die, even if that boy named Wu Tanzhi continues to use his weird abilities to suppress me, there will be no other existence around that can kill me."
"I see... the moment you activate [Demon Fighting Arrival], is it up to you to decide whether to come to this space to 'meet' you..." Unexpectedly, Feng Bujue still looked calm after hearing what the other party said.
With a look on his face, he muttered thoughtfully, "No wonder when I activate this skill recently, I always gain power directly instead of coming here to meet you... Presumably, this is also Twenty-Three's order, right?"
"Order?" Dou Mo continued, "Did you make something wrong?" He emphasized his tone, "No one can order me, not even the strongest derivative."
"Oh..." Feng Bujue nodded, "So, you 'joined forces' with her as equals out of your own will?"
"That's right." Dou Mo replied, "Our goal is to jointly eliminate all the forces in the main universe and return everything to chaos." As he spoke, he suddenly raised his right arm and pointed directly at the top of his head, "Like this
, that superior, so-called 'destiny' will no longer be able to create a 'script' suitable for the entertainment of you 'players' in the main universe, because by then... every inch of land in the main universe will have become barren.
There are scorched earth; and on each piece of scorched earth, there are only monsters that obey the killing instinct."
"I can probably guess what Twenty-Three wants to do, but what is your motive?" Feng Bujue was not surprised at all by Dou Mo's words. He just calmly continued, "You and 'Destiny'
Is there any holiday? What good does it do to you if the main universe becomes like this?"
"Of course I have a problem with 'destiny'!" Dou Mo seemed a little excited, "It was her! It ended the era that belonged to me; it was her! She killed the God of War, my only opponent. Hum...since she destroyed the
If she has lost my world, then I will now destroy the new world she created, which she thinks is better!"
"I understand." Feng Bujue said, "It's because of 'loneliness'..."
Those two words were like a sharp knife, piercing a place in Dou Mo's heart that had never been open to anyone.
"Your enemy, your servant, your only old enemy, the world you are familiar with, and... the meaning of your existence..." Facing the silent Dou Mo, Feng Bujue said in a gentle tone, "...
Everything disappeared with the end of the last era." He sighed softly, and then said, "In today's new world, most living creatures have never even heard of your name...
"Indeed, in this era, you are invincible, but so what?
"Do you want to rely on strength to dominate this universe? It is not difficult for you. As long as you leave a message of 'surrender or die' wherever you go, it is only a matter of time to unify the main universe; but...domination
What happens after the main universe?
"From your point of view...what's the point?
"There is no longer an opponent in this world that can match you evenly like the Governor, nor is there any more pure endless struggle that represents light and darkness...
"Our world is in color, which is incompatible with you...because you come from an era of black and white; you are black, and you need a touch of white that rivals you in order to live a meaningful life. Without that kind of white
', Then even if everything is dyed black...you will still be lonely."
Dou Mo listened to Brother Jue's words quietly without refuting, and was unable to refute.
"I don't know what Twenty-Three told you, but I can roughly guess that she gave you some promises..." Feng Bujue said, "For example...if we join forces with her, we can force 'destiny' to make compromises.
, change to resurrect your era; or... let Twenty-Three become the new 'destiny', and then let her help you fulfill your wish." He shook his head and sighed, "Whether you really believe it,
Or you have other plans, let me put it here... no matter who wins or loses in the end, you will not be able to realize your wish.
"Whether it's fate or twenty-three...if you think that the generational changes in Thriller Paradise are decided or controlled by 'you', you are totally wrong.
"It's not 'fate' that destroyed your era, she just performed this act under the instructions of a higher being that you can't understand.
"Do you think you are really a 'god' or a 'demon'? Maybe here, you are, but in the eyes of higher-dimensional creatures, you are simply insignificant.
"Do you think you are really acting on your own will? How do you know it's not some higher being than you who sets your mind and makes you think, 'This is what I think'?"
"When words like 'player', 'script', and 'fate' came out of your mouth that shouldn't have been spoken by you, did you ever think... maybe... you had already been infected by Twenty-Three, you
Is it just under her influence that I have the illusion that I am 'equal' with her and have the same purpose as her?"
Dou Mo was unable to answer Feng Bujue's question.
But he was thinking.
Feng Bujue... was also thinking. While he was asking Dou Mo questions, he was also questioning himself in his mind.
When a person begins to think, "What I am thinking in my mind at this moment, is it 'I' who am thinking, or is a higher will 'making me think this way'? Is the question I am questioning at the moment 'my' question, or is it what I should be thinking about?"
The existence I question leads me to question..." When asking questions like this, that person is basically... not far from going crazy.
"What if..." After a moment, Dou Mo finally spoke again and said in a deep voice, "What you said is true..." His tone changed, no longer so aggressive, "Then I... we...
...so what?
“Since there has never been a ‘choice’, why bother questioning it?
"So... even if you are right, I still want to kill you now.
"Perhaps, I have really been influenced or even controlled by Twenty-Three; or maybe... I am just being used by her because I am lonely and confused... I need someone like her to give me hope... even if this
This hope is just a lie, and to me, it is better than nothing."
When Feng Bujue heard this, a smile appeared on his face again: "Yes... I seem to have said some unnecessary words...
"But...that's just the way I am, I just like to do seemingly meaningless things.
"So, I still have to do it after all, and I have to do it my way.
"As for what other people think... I don't care; love or hate, joy or disgust, admiration or contempt, understanding or misunderstanding... I will accept all of these, because it is these that prove that I have lived in this world.
'Pass."
"Then..." At this point, Dou Mo's tone became cold again, "...I will just change the fact that you are 'alive' into 'once'..."
After saying this, he stretched out his hand and waved it gently.
In this "soul space" of fighting demons, he should have absolute control. Killing Feng Bujue is as easy as erasing the pattern on a pile of sand.
However...a second later, Dou Mo was surprised to find that the opponent was not wiped out as he expected.
"It's a bit unexpected, isn't it?" Feng Bujue raised his eyes and looked at Dou Mo, "Now that I've said the 'meaningless' stuff, let me say a few more practical words..." He paused for half a second and asked coldly,
"Do you really think...that I would do something stupid that even an idiot wouldn't do?"
As soon as these words came out, Dou Mo stood stunned on the spot, and a strange emotion called fear had quietly sprouted in his heart.
"How could I not predict that you would be brought to this space after turning on [Demon Fighting]?" After a pause, Feng Bujue asked again.
"You..." Dou Mo murmured, "You just activated your skills just to meet me in this space..."
Feng Bujue nodded and continued: "Actually, I could have killed you directly outside, but in order to say those 'superfluous words' to you, I decided to start this last [Demon Fighting Arrival]
; Only in this way... can I talk to you in this space where time does not pass."
"Haha..." Hearing this, Dou Mo laughed, "Haha...hahahaha..."
It was a burst of laughter with mixed flavors, bitterness, helplessness, nostalgia, sarcasm, sadness, relief, sigh... too many indescribable emotions were mixed in it.
Perhaps, this was the most rude moment since Dou Mo was born, but it was at this moment that he truly realized... that he had also lived.
"Okay..." When the other party's laughter died down, Feng Bujue spoke again, "I've said everything that needs to be said..." As he spoke, the energy around him burst into flames, and there was an obvious "law of cause and effect" nature.
His skills were ready for use, "Now..." He put on an almost cold expression, and his tone was as cold as ice, "With your outdated name, useless power, and empty life... disappear for me.
"
When he finished speaking, Brother Jue had already spun out with a [roundhouse kick].
The moment he made the move, although his expression was cold and determined, there was no hint of pleasure in his eyes, but instead there was a hint of sympathy.
But Dou Mo just stood there and let the opponent's attacks come.
The moment before he was kicked, Dou Mo still seemed very calm. He even opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say "thank you", but unfortunately... he couldn't say it until the end.
…………
On the battlefield, time still stood at the second when Feng Bujue activated [Demon Fighting Arrival].
From Xiaotan's point of view, as soon as Feng Bujue finished saying "I can do it alone", Dou Mo's body suddenly "collapsed".
"Ah!" Xiao Tan couldn't help but screamed in surprise when she saw Dou Mo's body instantly turning into black sand and dust, thinking that the latter had used some means to get rid of [Xuewu Jiutian].
"Don't panic." The next second, Brother Jue deliberately raised his voice and said, "He is already dead."
"What?" Not only Xiaotan, but also all the forces around him who were aware of this situation exclaimed after hearing Feng Bujue's words.
"Isn't that right... Did you really beat him to death with that mallet?" Zhuanjie Zun, who had just flown here from the city not long ago, was staying near Brother Jue and the others when he heard that Dou Mo was dead.
He also found the news unbelievable.
"No." Feng Bujue shook his head and said, "I used a killing move on him in his soul space to kill him." He didn't dwell on this topic, as if killing Dou Mo was not something he wanted to do.
One thing worth mentioning is, "Speaking of which... the battle up there was quite lively."
"You want to join in the fun too, right?" Xu Huaishang, who was resting a few meters away, answered in a timely manner.
"It seems..." Feng Bujue turned to observe Goddess Xu for two seconds, "You're almost rested." He then turned to look at Xiaotan, "How are you, Xiaotan?"
"Well... my arms are a little sore." Xiao Tanxu looked at Brother Jue and replied, "But compared to you... it shouldn't be a big deal..."
Xiao Tan had witnessed Feng Bujue's [Rat Hammer] tactics at close range, and he had to admit...compared to that kind of hand speed, the action of handstand with one hand + picking up dandruff with one hand was almost relaxing.
"Okay..." Feng Bujue continued, "Then the three of us can go up and join in the fun."
He left as soon as he said it, but in the middle of his words, he had disappeared.
Seeing this, Xiaotan and Xu Huaishang looked at each other without complaining, and they immediately went up to the sky in their own way.
After the three people went to heaven one after another, the surrounding monster legion soldiers who were resting on the ground were still in a state of mental short-circuit...
In a short period of time, they obviously could not digest the situation that "the fighting demon is dead".
However, no matter how long it takes subjectively for the creatures of the main universe to adapt, objectively... Dou Mo is indeed dead; and this change immediately caused a chain reaction that could affect the entire main universe.
"hody-ho!"
A moment later, with King Hanji's exclamation, wisps of long-lost sunshine... penetrated the gradually thinning clouds of demonic energy in the sky, and sprinkled on the land of the Monster Kingdom.
