Jiang Ye purchased Law Fruits to advance his Mysterious Law. While heading out, he was suddenly trapped by a divine-level sealing treasure. An assassin, Huihe, launched a powerful, multi-pronged attack, which Jiang Ye narrowly defended using his Star River Divine Body and Void Dharma Aspect. Despite surviving the initial assault, Jiang Ye faced a fatal blow from Huihe’s poisoned blade. Just as all hope seemed lost, the protecting god Lingxuan detected the assassination attempt and rushed to intervene, but it might be too late.

"Innate Divine Ability."

"Burn the origin!" Hui He roared inwardly.

The cost of burning the origin is the rapid loss of life force, but in exchange comes unimaginable terrifying power.

Not to mention, there’s the blessing of innate divine ability!

[Soul-Searing, God-Piercing Thrust]

The pitch-black short blade in Hui He’s hand suddenly expanded, transforming into a fearsome war spear several meters long. The spearhead was shrouded in dense black-red mist, within which countless wailing souls seemed to scream, embodying his innate divine ability.

This strike.

It condensed Hui He’s lifetime cultivation and origin power, containing a dual killing intent of annihilating the divine soul and tearing the divine body apart.

Even a Tier Four Peak demigod taking it head-on would face inevitable demise!

"Such power?"

"Not good." Jiang Ye’s pupils contracted, already sensing a massive crisis.

This crisis was even more intense than the one from Thunder Ash.

After all, if the original body dies, it truly means ceasing to exist!

"Block it!"

"Full power explosion." Jiang Ye dared not be careless, the divine veins within him crazily circulated, and a grain-like light suddenly exploded, a circle of invisible ripples spreading from him as the center.

[White Dragon All Phenomena Return to Silence]

As the ripples passed, the Heaven and Earth Phenomena faded, energy fluctuations dissolved, and even the destructive aura in Hui He’s divine ability was slightly weakened.

Yet, this divine ability was only in the Minor Success stage, ultimately insufficient against the extreme demigod innate divine ability fueled by burning the origin.

"Sssst——"

The black-red war spear tore through the ripples, its might only reduced by thirty percent, still carrying an unstoppable force straight towards Jiang Ye’s brow.

"Ssssst~!" Before the divine spear even reached him, the chilling destructive force had invaded his skin, making bloodstains appear densely.

At the critical moment.

"Impudent!" A dignified angry shout echoed through the heavens and earth.

"Tssst~!"

The void suddenly tore open, and a towering figure cloaked in black stepped through the air, none other than the god [Ling Xuan].

With divine light surging around him, he reached out his right hand, and an ancient divine seal appeared in his palm, crashing towards the war spear.

"Bang!"

The divine seal collided with the war spear, a terrifying energy shockwave swept forth, cracking open the ground in the core area into chasms a thousand meters deep, the surrounding formation restrictions roared violently.

The black-red war spear cracked inch by inch, finally shattering explosively, turning into scattered energy fragments.

"Hmph!"

Hui He let out a muffled grunt, black blood spraying from the corner of his mouth.

His body, burning the origin, became even more hunched, his aura instantly withered by more than half.

"God..."

"Even if I burn the origin, I cannot withstand a casual strike from a god." Hui He sighed inwardly, this sigh also containing decades of longing.

Ascend to divinity!

Unfortunately, his time was up, with no chance left.

"For the sake of the younger generation of the clan."

"Ye Jiang must die." Hui He raised his head to look at Ling Xuan, eyes devoid of fear, only determination.

He knew clearly, facing a god, there was no chance of escape.

But thinking of the promise from Tian Cang the Venerable, thinking of the opportunity for Gray Yuan from the younger generation to ascend to divinity, Hui He’s eyes flashed a hint of madness.

"Burn!" Hui He suddenly closed his eyes.

"Collapse!!"

A crisp sound, Hui He’s Martial Arts Foundation shattered explosively, his aura rapidly surged to the extreme, far exceeding the previous state of origin burning.

The body of an extreme demigod expanded like a balloon, terrifying energy fluctuations began twisting and collapsing the surrounding void.

The self-explosion at the demigod limit.

Yet it’s not just that!

Within the terrifying energy fluctuations, a point of golden light emerged, swiftly expanding.

An overwhelming devouring wave burst forth from that golden light, in a mere instant, exceeding beyond the demigod limit.

[Divine-level Slaughter Talisman]

This was Hui He’s true killer move!

Only through the self-explosion wave at the demigod limit could the power of this divine-level talisman be unleashed, releasing a truly divine-level power!

"Divine Treasure? Not good." Ling Xuan’s expression changed, hurriedly opened a divine shield, protecting Jiang Ye behind him.

"Boom!!!"

A world-shattering explosive sound erupted, the energy released from Hui He’s body blast completely detonated the talisman’s power, forming a terrifying energy storm covering a hundred miles.

The storm’s core was pitch black like ink, yet its edges glowed with dark golden light, containing the destructive power of the divine-level talisman...this level of terrifying might surpassed even the power Jiang Ye once unleashed using the hundred-billion Refining God Formation.

This level of power was enough to harm a god!

"Ye Jiang, be buried with me."

"This time, even a god may not save you..." Hui He opened his eyes, his divine body disintegrating inch by inch in the violent explosion, yet his gaze carried a sense of release.

This task, he completed it perfectly.

....

Rumble!

Tremendously terrifying explosion.

Most of the energy swept towards [Ling Xuan], attempting to temporarily trap this god; while a small, extremely condensed energy stream, like a viper, bypassed the edge of the divine shield, devouring towards Jiang Ye.

Though this energy stream was only the tip of the iceberg, it was enough to annihilate any Tier Four Peak demigod. Where the energy passed, the void directly annihilated, even light couldn’t escape.

"I will fall." Jiang Ye foresaw his fate first-hand.

Facing such a level of power explosion, he had no possibility of resistance!

"Fight!"

A glint of fierceness flashed in Jiang Ye’s eyes, under the threat of life and death, his inner potential burst forth completely.

His mind immediately flashed with the Star-Burning Profound Art of the Luoshen Spear Technique, the vast mighty power of the Star River Divine Body, the virtual-real transformations of the Void Dharma Aspect, numerous True God-level ultimate skills wildly fused in this moment.

"Innate Divine Ability."

"Condense for me!" Jiang Ye roared inwardly, millions of star patterns instantly converged, forming a burning resplendent star. The star’s surface flowed with void ripples, inside contained the Mysteries of the Five Elements and Two Great Laws, it was the framework of his hastily condensed innate divine ability using the Star-Burning Strike as the foundation.
