Jianchen murmured inside when he saw everyone's expressions. Although he had never heard of the Heavenly Demon Religion, the Heavenly Demon Religion was probably an impressive organisation from the reactions of the Overgods present.
At that moment, the surroundings fell into a strange silence. All the Overgods looked at the group of people before the Divine King. The light in their eyes flickered as they became uneasy.
Even further away, there were still some Empyrean Gods gathered there. They were all people who had arrived here before the Master Gods. However, ever since the several dozen Overgods entered the third stone hut, the people who were only Gods retreated far away. They did not dare to approach the hut at all.
A while later, an Overgod finally sighed gently, "I never thought that the Divine King Duanmu would actually die to the hands of the vice-leader of the Heavenly Demon Religion, Huai An. Moreover, if you want Duanmu Divine King's legacy, you have to defy the laws of the world and become enemies with the vice-leader of the Heavenly Demon Religion …"
Another Overgod shook his head as well. He said gently, "If that's the case, as long as you obtain the Divine King Duanmu's legacy, you'll be hunted down by the Heavenly Demon Religion. Who would be bold enough to take the legacy?"
"I'd rather not obtain the Divine King Duanmu's legacy than become enemies with the Heavenly Demon Religion, as that would only lead to death."
"The Heavenly Demon Religion is just too terrifying. It's not something we can provoke."
.....
All the Overgods sighed. They were filled with pity. All of them feared the Heavenly Demon Religion very much. They did not dare to accept the Divine King Duanmu's legacy at all.
"Do we have to become enemies with the Heavenly Demon Religion to obtain the Divine King Duanmu's legacy? The Divine King Duanmu is already dead anyway. Can't we take the legacy from a dead person with our strength as Overgods? " A middle-aged man in red robes spoke. Clearly, he wanted to go against the rules that the Divine King Duanmu had set down before he died and use force.
The light in the eyes of many Overgods immediately flickered when they heard what the person had said. Clearly, they were rather tempted.
"The Divine King Duanmu was indeed admirable when he was alive, but the rules he set down were just too difficult. Basically no one dared to agree to it. Instead of leaving the Divine King Duanmu's legacy here, why don't we take the legacy with us and leave it here?
Why don't we take him out with us so that he can continue to flourish and make a name for himself in the Saints' World? Perhaps there really is a sliver of hope for him to avenge Godking Duanmu in the future. " With that, he took out a low quality saint artifact flying sword from his Space Ring. He bowed towards the Divine King Duanmu's corpse politely and said sternly, "Duanmu Divine King, forgive me!" The old man shot out the low quality saint artifact in his hand.
Swish!
The low quality saint artifact directly shot towards the Divine King Duanmu's corpse as a silver streak of light.
The light in the eyes of all the Overgods present shone brightly as they stared at the flying sword. At the same time, they secretly accumulated power. Once they confirmed that there was no danger, they would charge over as quickly as they could.
The flying sword moved extremely quickly, arriving three meters away from the Divine King Duanmu in a single instance. However, it was also at this moment that a terrifying power of laws suddenly appeared. It formed a huge barrier of light that enveloped the corpse.
When the low quality saint artifact came in contact with the power of laws, it actually shattered silently.
At the same time, the Divine King Duanmu's corpse became fainter and fainter under the power of laws. His corpse changed drastically at that moment as well. The green-robed middle-aged man had vanished. To no surprise, all that remained was a set of white bones. There was a Space Ring on one of his fingers, and there was a pearl the size of a pigeon's egg in his head. It flickered with dim, golden light.
The Divine King Duanmu had already been dead for several hundred thousand years. His body had already rotted away. He had only used an ability to preserve an image of himself before he died. Once the ability was destroyed, the true state of his corpse would naturally be exposed.
The power of laws that had suddenly appeared had clearly destroyed the image of the Divine King Duanmu.
"A golden core of laws! It's a golden core of laws!"
The expressions of all the Overgods changed the moment they saw the pearl. They could not help but cry out. They were extremely shocked. As for the interspatial ring, no one paid any attention to it because it was within their expectations.
"A golden core of laws. It's said that only when one's comprehension of the laws of the world has reached an extremely deep level can they condense a golden core of laws. At the same time, a golden core of laws is the symbol of a Primordial realm expert …"
"I never thought that the Divine King Duanmu would actually condense a golden core of laws. Doesn't that mean he's broken through the Divine King realm and reached the Primordial realm …"
A few Overgods said. They were not calm at all.
"No, the Divine King Duanmu's golden core of laws is rather different. It's said that the golden cores of Primordial realm experts are extremely bright and dazzling, while the Divine King Duanmu's golden core of laws is dim. It's even devoid of any golden light. Clearly, he's in the process of reaching the Primordial realm from the Divine King realm. He can only be described as having one foot in the Primordial realm, while the other foot is still in the realm of the Divine King," said Yang Kai.
All the Overgods were very unsettled. None of them had thought that the Divine King Duanmu would actually have half a foot in the Primordial realm. As long as he made it through this process and completely condensed his golden core of laws, he would become a true Primordial realm expert.
But very soon, everyone was overwhelmed by the temptation of the Divine King's legacy. They all began to attack the power of laws that protected the Divine King Duanmu's remains. So what if he was a half-step Primordial realm expert? He was already dead. He had been reduced to a skeleton.
The power of laws was very powerful, enough to shatter a low quality saint artifact in a single instance. However, as long as they did not approach the power of laws, the power of laws would not be able to harm them, as they could already tell that the power of laws could only protect them. It would not actively attack them.
The Overgods all stood in the distance and sent out sword Qi or pillars of energy to attack the power of laws. They wanted to whittle away the power of laws bit by bit.
For a moment, terrifying ripples of energy swept through the surroundings as booms constantly rang out. In order to break through the protection of the power of laws, the Overgods did not hold back at all.
"Fairy Haoyue, is there anything you need here?" Jianchen did not attack the power of laws that protected the Divine King Duanmu. Instead, he communicated with Fairy Haoyue.
"I never thought that Duanmu would have already broken through and condensed a golden core of laws. That has exceeded my expectations. What I need is right here. It's Duanmu's Space Ring. As a supreme Divine King, it's impossible for his Space Ring to not have supreme grade divine crystals. There might even be five-colored divine crystals. Moreover, there's still some energy in the remains that hasn't dispersed. It'll still be helpful to me. Jianchen, I need you to create an opportunity for me to approach Duanmu's remains, "Fairy Haoyue's voice rang out in Jianchen's head.
At this moment, there was a flash of golden light, piercing the forehead of an Overgod in a single instance. The early Overgod died on the spot, wiping out his soul.
After killing the first early Overgod, the golden streak of light continued towards the second early Overgod.
However, the death of the first early Overgod made everyone cautious. The second Overgod immediately bellowed out as the power of laws surged. He directly swung his axe towards the golden light.
Boom!
