41: Annihilate Qin Fan's True Spirit

Di Yan gazed at Qin Fan, the corner of his mouth curling into a nearly imperceptible arc.

"Qin Fan, I will personally send you on your way. This is an honor others could only dream of; you should be grateful!"

He made no movement, yet the Laws surged around him, and a terrifying pressure crashed down.

*Crack!*

Qin Fan didn't even have time to scream.

Under this absolute pressure, his powerful body couldn't even last a ten-thousandth of an instant before it began to shatter inch by inch.

Blood and bone were instantly annihilated into a blood mist, finally dissipating into the Void Realm.

Where the blood mist dissipated, a faint light flickered.

Invisible to ordinary people, it had nowhere to hide under Di Yan's Heavenly Mandate Divine Pupils.

It was Qin Fan's essence: the immortal true spirit of the Dark Night Divine Venerable that had endured ten thousand tribulations.

"Di Yan! You are not qualified to destroy me!"

An unyielding wave of intent emanated from the true spirit: "gate of reincarnation, open!"

*Buzz—!*

The Void Realm shook once more.

An ancient giant gate appeared out of thin air behind Qin Fan's true spirit.

The giant gate stood ten thousand feet tall, its surface carved with patterns of the Reincarnation of all things. Every line emitted an aura that would make even a Great Emperor's heart palpitate.

"Hmm? To think you could summon the gate of reincarnation. I have underestimated you, Reincarnator."

A hint of surprise flickered in Di Yan's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by icy killing intent. "But before me, even Reincarnation must bow its head."

"Heavenly Mandate Divine Pupils, piercing through the ages, presiding over Reincarnation!"

Di Yan's golden eyes became incredibly deep, as if suns, moons, and stars were being born and destroyed within his pupils, and an endless river of fate was surging.

A divine tracking light shot from his eyes, ignoring the isolating power emitted by the gate of reincarnation, and accurately entered Qin Fan's true spirit.

"Trying to escape through Reincarnation? I shall follow you into it and see where else you can flee!"

Di Yan snorted coldly. Facing the gate of reincarnation that was about to dissipate, he did not hesitate. With his dragon robe fluttering, he transformed into a brilliant streak of light and boldly charged into the gate of reincarnation.

"Your Majesty!"

Seeing this, Meng Tian's expression changed. He wanted to give chase, but found that the gate of reincarnation had already become illusory, its trajectory impossible to capture. He could only watch helplessly as it vanished into the Void Realm.

Inside the Reincarnation passage, bizarre and motley scenes flashed by continuously.

Relying on the resonance of the "Heavenly Mandate Mark," Di Yan stabilized his form with the Power of Primordial Beginning, tightly locking onto the direction in which Qin Fan's true spirit had fled.

Who knows how much time passed—an instant or ten thousand years.

A point of light appeared ahead, rapidly enlarging and emitting the familiar aura of a world.

Di Yan's golden eyes flashed, instantly perceiving a subtle connection between this world and himself.

It was actually one of the Middle Thousand Worlds under his rule!

"Walking right into the trap."

Di Yan sneered, his speed increasing further. He transformed into a streak of light, tore through the world barrier, and descended into this Lower Realm.

His Divine Sense instantly blanketed the entire Lower Realm.

The resonance of the Heavenly Mandate Mark was crystal clear, ultimately pointing to a small city with a population of a hundred thousand.

There, the loud cry of an infant came from in front of a bedroom.

In the next instant, Di Yan's figure appeared above the city.

His figure was illusory, invisible to all.

At the bedroom door, a midwife walked out carrying a newborn baby boy.

A smile spread across her face as she shouted to the nearby master of the house, "Master, it's a birth! It's a healthy boy!"

The master was a middle-aged man dressed in luxurious clothes. He excitedly stepped forward to take the baby boy, teasing him carefully, his eyes full of the joy of being a father.

What no one noticed was that deep within the baby boy's brow, a nearly imperceptible mark was resonating from afar with Di Yan's perception.

This was precisely Qin Fan's reincarnated body for this life.

He opened his ignorant eyes, his heart full of confusion:

"What's going on? The gate of reincarnation actually didn't Seal my previous memories!"

"Great! With my past life's memories and cultivation experience, I can rise quickly and seek revenge against Di Yan!"

"Damn Di Yan, you just wait..."

Qin Fan's pupils constricted violently, and his inner thoughts came to a screeching halt.

Looking through the middle-aged man's arms, he saw that familiar figure in the sky.

Di Yan was quietly looking down at him, the corner of his mouth curled into a playful arc.

In an instant, Qin Fan's mind buzzed, filled with disbelief.

How is this possible?

Not even ordinary immortals or gods can track the trajectory of the gate of reincarnation. Di Yan is just a Quasi-Emperor; how could he find this place through Reincarnation?

"So what if it's Reincarnation? In the end, you cannot escape my palm."

Di Yan's voice echoed in Qin Fan's mind, carrying unparalleled dominance.

"In this life, I shall bring your endless Reincarnation to a complete end."

With a thought, an invisible power of Law instantly enveloped the newborn infant.

The crisp crying stopped abruptly.

The fragile flame of life, along with the true spirit deep within his brow that carried the memories and power seeds of the Dark Night Divine Venerable, was completely annihilated into nothingness by a single thought from Di Yan, leaving not a trace behind.

Outside the bedroom, the middle-aged man held the baby boy who had suddenly lost his breath. The smile on his face froze instantly, and his face turned as pale as paper.

Seeing this, the midwife hurried forward to check. After her fingertips touched the baby's cold body, she said helplessly to the middle-aged man, "Master, this child... seems to have died young."

Sorrowful wails echoed through the courtyard, but all of this no longer had anything to do with Di Yan.

His figure swayed slightly in the void, tearing through the world barrier and disappearing from this Lower Realm.

Meanwhile, back on the previous battlefield in the Void Realm.

Meng Tian held the ten thousand miles town mountain sword and pierced through Cang Emperor's imperial body with a single strike.

Cang Emperor's Physical Body shattered instantly. His Primordial Spirit burst out from the fragments in a disheveled state, not daring to delay for a moment, transforming into a streak of light to flee into the depths of the Void Realm.

It was too terrifying.

This Meng Tian was simply more of a Prodigy than any Prodigy he had ever seen.

With only a cultivation of the eighth level of Quasi-Emperor, he actually possessed the combat power of a third-level Great Emperor.

"Where do you think you're going!"

Meng Tian stepped forward, his body erupting with Laws as he transformed into a streak of light and gave chase.

Watching Meng Tian get closer and closer behind him, Cang Emperor was scared out of his wits, pushing his Primordial Spirit to its limits.

But just then, he suddenly felt an even more heart-palpitating power coming from ahead, making his Primordial Spirit tremble uncontrollably.

He subconsciously looked back, only to see a giant hand of Law, imbued with boundless Emperors Might, condensing from the void and swatting toward him. In the blink of an eye, it was above his head!

There was no escape, nowhere to hide.

In the final moment, Cang Emperor's gaze pierced through the giant hand of Law and saw the familiar figure in a dragon robe ahead.

"Emperor Yan!"

*Boom—!*

The giant hand of Law crashed down, and Cang Emperor's Primordial Spirit was turned into nothingness, completely dissipating into the Void Realm.

Seeing Di Yan walking over with his hands behind his back in the distance, Meng Tian was delighted and quickly put away the ten thousand miles town mountain sword to step forward. "Your Majesty, are you all right?"

Di Yan said indifferently, "It was merely hunting down a single true spirit; it is of no consequence."

Meng Tian was left speechless. His Majesty's words were far too understated. That was a Reincarnator who could summon the gate of reincarnation.

Anyone else probably wouldn't have even been able to touch the hem of the opponent's clothes.

He quickly recovered and held up a tower-shaped Imperial Weapon with both hands. "Your Majesty, this is the Imperial Weapon left behind by Cang Emperor."

His ten thousand miles town mountain sword was intimately connected to himself, so he had no need for an Imperial Weapon.

Di Yan didn't even look at the tower-shaped Imperial Weapon, saying deeply, "This is your spoil of war; you may handle it yourself."

With that, he raised his hand to tear open the void and stepped inside.

Meng Tian was overjoyed. Although this Imperial Weapon didn't suit him, it would still provide a significant boost to his combat power before he broke through to Great Emperor.

He quickly put away the Imperial Weapon and followed Di Yan's footsteps into the rift.
