Chapter 1080 Rules of Existence Erasure
1080 Rules of Existence Erasure
'Should I kill him or not?' thought Huo Fenghuang
Fighting between Eternals usually involved specific nuances due to how difficult it is to kill each other. So, after "killing" the Cult Leader, she needs to decide whether it's worth the trouble of granting him true death. She must find his Dao Imprint, erase his history, and track down his Secret Vault.
Huo Fenghuang must consider whether her relationship has reached the point of making all the effort. The Cult Leader will take countless Yuan Epochs before reviving, and Heaven knows how powerful she will be by then.
According to the rules of Heaven and Earth, once an Eternal dies in the lower dimension, their revival point will be in the upper dimension. As such, she does not need to worry about his revenge on the Ancient Clan once he returns.
'More importantly, he offered me merit if I didn't kill him and bring the news to his cult,' thought Huo Fenghuang. The court's outline clearly stated that the right to grant true death to an opponent is in her hands, so she can do as she pleases.
'Let's wait and see.'
She turned around to check the situation and saw Ao Shen fighting Qian Heng.
A few minutes ago, Myriad Emperor World:
After capturing that rat from the upper dimension, Wang Wei immediately began to gather information or data on the latter. As expected, the events from the latter's time in the upper dimension were exceptionally protected to the point he could not do anything. However, he knew almost everything that had happened since he had descended to the lower dimension.
Wang Wei sifted through all the information and retained the most useful one. Firstly, the spies had elected a new leader after Parasyte's demise. Secondly, this man was nothing but a sacrificial lamb sent to see how Wang Wei would react. Thirdly, these spies had successfully infiltrated the upper echelons of the Commerce Hub and were using its power to create a major plan to deal with them. Fourthly, they have contacted He Shiyi to use the broken Empyrean Artifact to hide their information from divination or calculations.
Lastly, and the most important news, these people were scared of Wang Wei's strength and had thoughts of abandoning or, at the very least, delaying this mission for as long as possible. However, they received a message from their boss in the upper dimension.
'From what I know, the seven moons have now shown up after a long time, but the fact they've sent a message to the lower dimension is an indication that they have not completely removed their eyes from the world,' analyzed Wang Wei. He classified this information as important and with a high possibility of being sold for a decent price.
'Many things lead to the Commerce Hub and He Shiyi. I don't know if this is a coincidence or not, but it's about time I truly focus on removing these two variables,' thought Wang Wei before glancing at this man. He wanted to erase him from history through Karma Threads and remove his Dao Imprint. Killing him would not be challenging, especially since he did not have to worry about the latter's Secret Vault since he had not had an opportunity to do so yet.
However, would this man be completely dead after doing this? Not necessarily. Why? Because a Paragon would still remember him. Of course, Wang Wei knew he won't have to worry too much about this man despite one person still remembering.
An Eternal Emperor's [Existence] has been sublimated to no longer be limited by their body and soul. Their memories, history, impact, and names are extensions of their being or existence. However, Grand Dao has placed restrictions on an Eternal's immortal existence. After too much of a person's [Existence] has been removed, it becomes exponentially harder to revive them.
In other words, once only one, two, or a measly five individuals remember an Eternal, Grand Dao's rules will activate and interfere in their revival. By then, the karmic connection determines whether they can be revived.
For example, if a Paragon meets an Eternal somewhere and locks eyes for five seconds before leaving, the Paragon will remember the Eternal. However, if that Eternal dies and the person is not strong enough to remove the memory from the Paragon's mind, the Eternal cannot be revived due to their weak connection.
'The best move is to keep this man alive,' analyzed Wang Wei. 'One of these parasites might be willing to go the extra mile to revive this guy to get more information from him, or they might deem him useless. It could go either way. However, if they choose to save him, he will reveal information about me, especially my strength. So, the best move is to keep him alive in the lower dimension, where they cannot access him.'
He pointed at the man to place a potent seal on his body before sending him to the sect with instructions on how to deal with/imprison him. Then, he focused on this war.

Martial Hegemony World:
Ao Shen's whip slapped Purple Dragon, breaking through the repulsive force his body was releasing; the force behind the whip sent him flying while leaving marks on his crossed arms. Lightning Fist thought this was an opportunity, given how long the whip had elongated, so she rushed forward with hands glowing with lightning.
Unfortunately for her, the scaled whip had retracted, and the scales fit together into a sword, slashing her body. Her enemy's speed and reaction caught her off-guard, and she did not respond. Luckily, Divine Armament used a spell to exchange places with her, blocking the attack.
Divine Armament Body is known for its body refining, which focuses on the extreme end of defense. So, he thought he could block that attack with relative ease, but he was wrong.
The sword left a nasty wound on his chest, followed by a devouring power that wanted to drink his blood and a curse that weakened his body. His body immediately became pale and started shrinking.
"Used Energy Dominance," he yelled, and Lightning Fist followed his suggestion, releasing all her Immortal Qi in the surroundings to influence Ao Shen's Darkness Dao. The dragon responded by creating and condensing an extreme amount of dark energy to confront their Qi.
Then, his sword morphed into a bow, and he fired at Purple Dragon while these two were preoccupied. Two translucent dragons composed of [Dragon-Subduing Energy] materialized before Purple Dragon as defense, and they successfully blocked two arrows. However, the remaining fours impaled his limbs, rendering him immobile. Then, an enormous mouth of darkness appeared out of nowhere to swallow his body, leaving the head floating.
"Thank you for the meal again," sneered Ao Shen. "Don't worry. I'll leave you alive so you can watch me annihilate your sect." He put away the head to focus on the surviving two individuals, who finally overwhelmed his dark energy.
Divine Armament's face was pale because of the blood he had lost, but he had returned to his regular body shape. Meanwhile, Lightning Fist looked at Ao Shen with hatred; she had lost another companion.
"We need help," communicated Divine Armament.
"True, but there is no one else?"
"His Majesty should be able to deal with the 2 Immortal Sovereigns independently, leaving Flower Blade to help us."
"This might be our only option," replied Lightning Fist with a sigh. She swiftly contacted Qian Heng to tell him about the situation.
"Can't you guys hold any longer?" asked Qian Heng. "We're so close to killing those two."
"I don't think we can. He's out for blood and way more powerful than the last time we met him."
Qian Heng grunted in frustration, "Fine."
[Shadow Whip]
Ao Shen's whip turned invisible or undetectable before attacking those two without any restraint. Divine Armament's body released a golden shield, and Lightning Fist generated a second layer of lightning shield, but the whip forcefully broke the first layer and corroded the second.
None of them could even see the whip and prepared for a terrible blow, but at the last minute, a wall of flowers appeared before them, blocking the whips before dispersing. In a short period, the flower brought them, and they teleported beside a handsome man wearing blue clothes embroidered with flowers.
"I'm glad you're here," said Divine Armament.
"Me too."
"Now is not the time for chit-chat," said Flower Blade. "We must do something."
"Is it possible to exile him?" asked Lightning Fist through divine sense.
"These people already detected the artifact's ability and have been on guard." Flower Blade tried this on Jian Sha and the Sea Immortal Sovereign when he had to hold them off alone, but they saw through his plan and evaded.
"But this might be our only chance," added Divine Armament. "We must exile the dragon before helping his Majesty deal with the Immortal Sovereigns before dealing with the female Eternal and the Turtle King."
The others grunted as they knew this was the truth. Meanwhile, Ao Shen had a bright smile on his face. "More resources," he declared.
