I Truly Am The Villian - Chapter 1270: 1269: Seizing the Flower of Death, The World Shatters

Chapter 1270: Chapter 1269: Seizing the Flower of Death, The World Shatters

The Heaven-reaching Tree, though just a sapling, exuded extremely pure life energy.

It could evolve any Death Flower.

Xu Zimei placed the Heaven-reaching Tree next to the Death Flower, and immediately, the life energy and death energy formed a mutually opposing situation.

However, Xu Zimei knew that this situation would not last long, as the Heaven-reaching Tree was just a sapling.

Over time, it could easily harm its essence.

Seizing the moment when the Heaven-reaching Tree held the Death Flower in check, Xu Zimei’s right hand, enveloped in the Creation Force of the Divine Continent, swiftly grasped towards the true Death Flower.

When he grabbed the Death Flower with both hands, the Death Flower resisted fiercely.

Xu Zimei frowned and forcefully pulled it out from the ground.

Don’t be fooled by the modest size of this Death Flower; its roots extended dozens of meters long, and the Power Vortex within Xu Zimei’s body spun madly.

Powerful force surged through his organs, his muscles bulging, and the ground cracked with numerous fissures.

The Death Flower was forcibly uprooted.

However, this Death Flower was indeed ferocious, as it continued to entangle the Heaven-reaching Tree, refusing to let it break free.

Seeing this, Xu Zimei could not care about anything else.

He directly threw both the Death Flower and the Heaven-reaching Tree into the Divine Continent, to be dealt with later.

As he looked at the other Death Flowers around him, without the support of the main Death Flower, these Death Flowers felt like a group of dragons without a leader.

Xu Zimei switched his Principle to that of Life.

He merged with the Tree of Life.

“Lend you a hand,” the Tree Spirit shouted from the side.

Vast life energy descended upon Xu Zimei, forming a beam of life that reached the sky.

It parted the clouds, dispelling death.

The Tree of Life transformed into flowers, gently falling from the void.

These flowers dispelled death, carrying the hope of life.

Below, the Death Flowers began to wither at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A descent of the Life Flowers marked another withering of the Death Flowers.

This is the principle of the cycle of life and death.

Everything starts anew continuously, life and death coexist.

The Death Flowers withered unceasingly, decaying themselves, and finally, the entire city was filled with corpses.

All were the corpses of Death Flowers.

Rihua City, dead silent for countless years, seemed to have been reborn for the first time, but unfortunately, it was merely a fleeting revival, gravely ill.

“Thank you for appearing on the last leg of life,” the Tree Spirit smiled.

Even as the life energy dissipated, the Tree Spirit began to fade away piece by piece.

Yet, he was still very relieved.

The tormenting Death Flowers, after countless years, were finally destroyed; a great revenge had been avenged.

“After I die, Rihua City will no longer have the power to sustain, and I’m afraid this inner world will shatter,” the Tree Spirit said.

“Be cautious in your actions, do not become a slave to slaughter.”

As his words fell, the world before his eyes began to break apart.

The inner world started to disintegrate from within, with the firmament and earth showing countless fine cracks.

The next moment, with a “boom” sound, the inner world completely shattered.

As Xu Zimei’s body floated in midair for a moment, it rose with the collapsing world.

The giant tree supporting Rihua City tilted forward.

Xu Zimei reappeared in the previous ruinous city, with Xie Changliu standing beside him.

“Where did you just go?” Xie Changliu asked anxiously.

“I took a trip to Rihua City,” Xu Zimei replied with a smile.

Before Xie Changliu could ask more, the ground beneath everyone started to rotate.

This was the Twenty-four Directions Heavenly Formation beginning to dissipate, and henceforth, there would be no Rihua City in the world.

As the formation dissipated, what was once ruins in front of everyone suddenly revealed countless members of the Ghost Tribe and the Divine Race.

Everyone was a bit stunned, failing to react.

Even those who were in a fierce battle stopped.

“What’s going on?” someone muttered.

“To put it simply, this formation is just an illusion.

In truth, everyone is by your side, but you cannot see them.”

Looking around, this outer world wasn’t very large, with exits everywhere, but you just couldn’t see them.

This is the power of the Twenty-four Directions Heavenly Formation.

It can obscure the heavenly secrets; what you see is just an illusion.

“The person who set up this formation must have been an extraordinary sage,” someone remarked with reverence.

Yet, astonishment aside, once people recovered from the anomaly, the Divine Race and Ghost Tribe quickly split into factions and squared off against each other.

The sixteen Ghost Kings of the Ghost Tribe and the sixteen Divine Generals of the Divine Race stood in confrontation.

“Wasn’t there supposed to be a Death Flower here?” the Sunlight Divine General snorted coldly.

“Why didn’t I see anything?”

“The sudden disappearance of the formation suggests that someone has probably gotten there first,” a member of the Divine Race spoke up nearby.

Instantly, both the Gods and Ghosts Clans became wary, suspecting each side acquired the legacy.

Originally, Xu Zimei had no intention of getting involved in this conflict.

After all, having obtained the legacy, nothing else held any meaning for him.

Just as he was planning to sneak away with Xie Changliu, the sky suddenly turned blood-red.

“That is…,” Xie Changliu paused, then solemnly said, “Evil Demon King.”

“Truly lingering like a ghost,” Xu Zimei shook his head slightly.

The anomaly in the firmament also caught the attention of both the Gods and Ghosts Clans.

Not seen for a long time, the aura around the Evil Demon King grew ever stronger, having now entered the Creation Realm.

The Five Realms of the Great Saint: Supreme, Mixed Yuan, Eternal, Creation, and the next step is the pinnacle Holy King.

The Creation Realm is already outstanding among the Great Saints.

The Evil Demon King, upon first emerging, wasn’t that powerful, but now is likely at his peak.

A blood-red figure swept across the firmament.

His gaze swept over countless members of the Gods and Ghosts Clans and instantly locked onto Xu Zimei among the crowd.

“Run, why aren’t you running?” the Evil Demon King smirked cruelly.

“Why should I run? I have so many helpers, aren’t you afraid of them?” Xu Zimei retorted.

“Who are you?” On the side of the Gods and Ghosts Clans, a Ghost King stepped forward, looking at the Evil Demon King and asked.

Despite being frightened by the aura of the other, the domineering nature of the Ghost Tribe allowed no cowardice.

Others were always intimidated by the reputation of the Ghost Tribe.

“Insect, scram,” the Evil Demon King flicked his finger.

A mass of evil clouds fell from the void, striking the Ghost King’s chest with thunderous speed.

Instantly, the Ghost King’s wailing erupted, his chest split open, spilling ghastly Ghost Qi.

The Ghost Tribe army was so scared they took a step back.

This man was too fierce, wounding a Ghost King without a word.
