Eternal Night

Chapter 860 Say it again

Wu Pifu remained expressionless, but those who knew him well knew that his killing intent was boiling over.

"...It's you?"

"Bio-Beast, World War III, Azure... it's you!?"

As Wu Pifu spoke, his aura exploded and expanded.

After learning Nen, Wu Pifu's strength expanded again. Nen is an extremely rare extraordinary path that combines the physical body, mental consciousness, and soul. Its multiplication zone is a very rare independent multiplication zone, which means that the increase is a non-decaying multiplier. Wu Pifu's extraordinary strength was forcibly increased by the multiplier.

Although he lost his ability to change his mind due to the oath and constraints, it also meant that he no longer needed to consider the problem of his energy being scattered after learning countless extraordinary methods. All of these things combined made him a true number monster.

The black giant reacted very directly. As the shadow beside him roared, "What the hell are you...?", it grabbed the shadow and hurled it at Wu Pifu.

Wu Pifu slashed horizontally, the blade striking the heavens and earth. In an instant, everything in front of Wu Pifu, as well as Zhang Xuer and Ace behind him, seemed to see the world collapsing. No... not just seemed!
With a single slash, a visible annihilation trajectory extended along the blade's edge, instantly cleaving and shattering the shadow that was directly in its path. This trajectory then hurtled towards the dark giant, who roared as countless tentacles surged forth from its body, filling the area within dozens of miles around it. These tentacles met the destructive blade's edge with a series of cracking sounds, and although they were shattered inch by inch, more tentacles and flesh continued to pour out from the shadow of the dark giant, while its main body directly spread its arms, tearing through the spatial rifts.

He wanted to escape.

Wu Pifu was quite surprised when he unleashed his slash.

Putting aside the power and speed of this strike, the sheer power is off. It actually cleaved the shadow in two from five steps away. Don't think that the shadow was weak just because it had only had half of its body shattered by his strike. No matter how weak it was, it was still a monster at the level of the Ascended Body. How could he have severely injured an Ascended Body from five steps away?

But at this moment, he didn't have time to think much. He realized that although the black giant was not the true form of the Titan Demon Ancestor Ceres, whose true form was indeed the Origin, this black giant was definitely an important physical body for him, similar to the physical body of the Eternal Mother before, containing his own essence.

In fact, since the Eternal Mother came, the Gaia people's understanding of the source has improved significantly. Compared to the source itself, what is more important to it is the "self". The so-called transformation is the process of the gradual demise of the self. As long as the self is completely eradicated and killed, the source becomes a pure natural phenomenon, a pure rule and concept. For example, the source of death is like this.

So the black giant ran away when he saw him, because for him, having his physical body severed was a truly fatal thing.

At this moment, the shattered shadow did not completely disappear. It shattered into pieces, yet it struggled to reform, while chilling roars erupted from each fragment: "Cerseis! You dare betray me?! The Great Free Demon will not let you get away with this! And you, a mere mortal, have such audacity! I have already absorbed your civilized aura; I, the Extraterrestrial Demon, will surely punish you..."

Wu Pifu flashed past, and within five steps, the blade light rose again. This time, all the shadows could no longer gather and began to annihilate and dissipate little by little. As the shadows dissipated, the humanoid creatures with bone spurs growing from their joints, as well as the tall and large exoskeleton humanoid giants, all began to shatter and collapse, turning into rotten flesh lumps and screaming figures scattered all over the ground.

Even among the hundreds of Zhenwu lineage warriors whose blood was boiling, dozens of people began to mutate with screams of agony, and their companions or elders immediately distanced themselves from them with extreme vigilance.

All of this was observed by the black giant and Wu Pifu. As Wu Pifu hurtled towards them, the black giant went all out, tearing open spatial rifts with its hands in an attempt to squeeze itself into them. At the same time, various mutated flesh and blood gushed out from its shadow. Once these mutated flesh and blood gushed out, they immediately began to pollute everything around them. Rocks, soil, plants, animals, and even the air began to show strange distortions.

This distortion is not simply due to root pollution, but rather all the distorted organic and inorganic matter has been transformed into something resembling a living organism, only it looks bizarre and is filled with a terrifying sense of distortion and grotesqueness.

"Oh no! The heavens and earth have become demonic!"

A member of the Zhenwu lineage roared, and the remaining two hundred or so people did not retreat. They each unleashed their blood energy, which boiled like a furnace. They united in some mysterious formation, mixing their blood energy with their will and thoughts, and pressed down on the mutated primordial demons out of thin air. As soon as these strange primordial demons came into contact with their spreading blood energy furnace, they were immediately burned into torches and then dispersed again, turning into inorganic matter and organic matter.

On the other side, after Wu Pifu slashed away the shadow, he shot straight toward Sersis like lightning. Facing the surging, tidal wave of tentacled flesh and blood, his greatsword whirled like light. Within five steps, the flesh and blood seemed to hit an invisible wall, turning to ash upon contact. Wu Pifu forcefully cut a flesh and blood passage through it, and within a second, he was less than a thousand meters away from the black giant.

The black giant, still half-formed, roared urgently, "I've stopped watching and pulling you! Do you really intend to ruin everything?!"

"Grass mud horse!"

Wu Pifu roared, "Why didn't you say this when you were trespassing on the Super Soldier Dream World? Why didn't you say this when you were devouring countless souls? Do you remember what I told you back then?"

"The so-called attraction rate can also be called... my Wu Pifu's attraction rate!!" A blade of light erupted, and a blade pierced through the air from a thousand meters away. Wu Pifu followed the blade, slashing forward and cutting everything in its path. The fleshy tentacles that blocked its way were annihilated, unable to even stop Wu Pifu for a millisecond.

Faced with this sudden attack, the black giant could not sit idly by. A huge arm emerged from the darkness, several times larger than the giant itself. It wielded a magnificent spear that shone with holy light and thrust it at Wu Pifu.

The spear was filled with holy light, majesty, and domineering presence. Its appearance was dazzling and magnificent, and its arm was also strong and imposing, clad in a golden armor that covered the entire skin.

What's bizarre is that the spear is covered with wriggling tentacles, and the massive arm and golden armor are also covered with tentacles, mouthparts, and internal organs, which spread out from the gaps in the armor.

Even the holy light it emitted carried a strange aura; everything around it began to transform into a demon when illuminated by this holy light.

However, the demonic transformation couldn't get close to Wu Pifu at all. Even when faced with the spear thrusting at him, Wu Pifu didn't change his movements at all, his blade moving forward relentlessly.

With a single slash, the spear shattered, the holy light vanished, and the arm crumbled. Just as the black giant's half-body squeezed into the spatial rift, Wu Pifu's blade struck the remaining half's head, then cleaved it from head to toe, forcefully splitting the black giant in two. One half immediately disappeared into the spatial rift, while the other half began to slowly annihilate.

“…Very well, you have brought doom to yourself and your race…” The annihilated half of the body was not dead for a moment, but let out a roar.

Wu Pifu stood with his knife in hand, looking at the half-body of the pitch-black giant. Without saying a word, he stomped down, crushing the part he stepped on into mud, grinding it bit by bit.

The pitch-black giant seemed to be in great pain, and also seemed unwilling: "I know your reputation. You have killed Wu Pifu, the ultimate seed of the Root, the strongest of the true civilization of the new era. I have already given way to you. Why are you so stubborn?"

Wu Pifu remained silent, simply going about his own business, and didn't even bother to respond to the inhuman questions.

The pitch-black giant had mostly vanished, yet it still roared: "...But it doesn't matter anymore. This upheaval has separated my self, giving many origins and civilizations a glimmer of hope. I wield demonic power and possess the legacy of Olympus. What can you possibly use to fight me? You mere mortal! Last time you slew an origin, it was merely by chance, and that origin was already on the verge of annihilation. Wait for me, wait for me! I will trample your civilization and slaughter your people. I want you to watch as I devour them all, or turn them into demonic slaves, tormenting them for billions of years! If not, this hatred will never be eradicated!!"

Wu Pifu ignored him and silently raised his knife. The black giant thought he was going to annihilate the rest of him, so he wouldn't beg for mercy. But Wu Pifu didn't cut him with his knife at all. Instead, he stretched out his palm and aimed at the little bit of his remaining self.

"I am a mere scoundrel!"

In the next instant, the world underwent a dramatic change in the senses of the black giant... no, Cecis.

It transcends the rules and levels of the dream world, overcomes the obscuring influence of the fundamental Tao, and even transcends logic and concepts...

When He came to His senses, He appeared as a twenty-meter-tall being in a void that was a thousand meters high, a thousand meters long, and a thousand meters wide.

Cecis was a combination of a half-humanoid and a half-writhing, monstrous animal, and before him, a two-meter-tall human wielding a large sword was walking toward him.

Cecis's humanoid half blinked, staring blankly at Wu Pifu, while its beast-like half frantically surveyed its surroundings. Then... it saw a lifelike portrait on a wall in this void. What was depicted in the portrait...?

"It's you! It was you who caused the upheaval three months ago!? Who exactly are you..." Cecis roared frantically.

Wu Pifu said softly.

"What you just said..."

"Say it again."
