Chapter 1621: Chapter 1616: Netherworld Disrupted (End)

It’s truly astonishing.

Of course, Fu Qian knew that Lisa was under immense pressure, and he even understood the reason for it—divinity.

Under constant urging and enlightenment, Brother Youman finally returned a delightful surprise.

Devour, merge, as that gigantic and menacing skull took shape, it surprisingly showed hints of High-level Extraordinary traits, seeping and solidifying within.

Theoretically, this scene was indeed a challenge to understanding.

So far, aside from the cultivation path of the Swordsmanship Department, it seems there hasn’t been any talk of crossing the Demigod chasm without the aid of divine traits, appearing completely out of thin air.

Of course, an Oath Taker is another exception, but what appears before them seems difficult to categorize within that realm.

Related to the authority over life and death? Last time, Brother Ah Wei demonstrated a survival ability that defied common sense.

When bones and spirits gather to a certain magnitude, does divinity automatically gestate within... or is it returning?

After all, according to the imprint theory on Extraordinary traits mentioned by the Prism of Radiant Transformation before, their forms of existence sometimes seem not bound by territory.

Regardless, it feels increasingly in harmony with this "Netherworld".

And according to the consensus reached with Cass earlier, if they are indeed maggots born on the corpse, could this anomaly be a fallback plan of the fallen who resurrected?

Even with the absence of divinity, there’s still a fallback enabling resurrection.

Indeed, worthy of a "God"-level existence, learning truly has no bounds.

Yet if one accepts this point, they will have to face an even more astonishing question—who turned Him into a corpse?

Or even who turned the Netherworld into a corpse?

...

Could it be something that happened during that Long Night, where even the resting place of life ceased to exist under devastation?

This possibility cannot be ruled out.

And if it’s true—"The night and the nightmare are too long."

At the moment, it is easier to comprehend why even the Prism of Radiant Transformation has such sentiments.

Of course, thinking optimistically, since the old Death God brother still had the strength to develop an Oath Taker, it signifies that at least He hasn’t completely perished. Perhaps there will be a chance to chat later, consulting about what exactly happened in this "Netherworld".

As for the one before them, it obviously shows no interest in communication, not even wanting to spare me time for a brainstorming session.

"Watch out!"

In Professor Lisa’s urgent reminder, the spot where Fu Qian originally stood was shattered by a giant white bone claw.

While contemplating, the opponent’s form had already become more distinct, and with the gathering of divinity, the oppressive force quickly escalated, as if an ancient necromancer truly returned.

And it didn’t hold back, launching an attack directly at the previous taunting target.

Of course, even without Professor Lisa’s warning, Fu Qian would not be hit by such means.

Amidst the flying debris, he had already backed off a distance.

As for Professor Lisa, she was already retreating to a safer location when that thing turned to look.

Fu Qian’s series of performances had clearly made her not too worried. Her earlier shout was merely to do her due diligence.

As for now, she had already retreated even farther.

Because at the same time of missing the hit, that thing began to raise familiar fireballs.

Compared to those spewed by the statue, these were not only over twice the size but also reached two digits in number.

"Should we retreat first? This thing seems hard to kill."

Watching the trajectory of the fireballs warily, Lisa wasn’t just a spectator and actively proposed a suggestion.

"I believe each academy will be interested in such a unique transformation."

Her intention was simple—go back and gather people.

While attacking, it continued devouring surrounding beings.

Professor Fu might be strong, but if he can’t kill it instantly, a long entanglement is likely—

Unfortunately, as soon as she finished speaking, Professor Fu’s figure stopped moving backward and instead advanced forward, even casually swatting away another attacking bone claw.

Without any hesitation, he jumped up and punched that gigantic body, though being enveloped in explosive flames in the process.

...

Is it really... Body-protecting Armor?

The target’s reaction speed was undoubtedly fast, and as it encountered the attack, all the fireballs were simultaneously pummeled in front of it.

Yet amidst the roaring flames, Professor Lisa watched with jaw-dropping astonishment.

One can’t say unharmed, but rather that nothing had happened.

Under such an exaggerated assault, the completely shredded garments revealed a body covered in armor that seemed merely dusted with tiny marks.

But the other side was not so fortunate.

An unremarkable punch directly triggered a storm of bones.

Countless fragments shot in all directions, even an intangible ethereal spirit was ripped open.

All it took was a single blow for the terrifying creation to become shattered and deformed.

Yet as feared, unless thoroughly destroyed, it would continuously repair itself...

While hesitating whether to go assist in the finishing blow, Lisa looked through the flames and was startled to find that Professor Fu’s other arm, in a familiar gesture, was reaching out, resembling earlier when embracing the pillar, wrapping around the misshaped skull.

Crack!

The sound even resembled it.

The next moment, that head was actually ripped off.

Though it looked far from over, the fatal injury for a human seemed insignificant to it.

As the apparent power core, when Fu Qian cradled the skull in his hand, every cavity on its surface spurted that eerie flame.

Accompanied by the gaping mouth opening, a shrill wail resounded abruptly, piercing the soul.

Crack!

Sadly, it only lasted half a second, with Professor Lisa just fiercely resisting, she discovered that the gaping mouth had been penetrated... followed by the unbelievably hard skull.

Amidst continuous crisp sounds, the death struggle of the divine existence swiftly reached an end, as both the netherflame and wails vanished.

"Will this suffice?"

When Professor Fu turned around again, he was holding a slightly contoured bone plate.

This was the most intact piece left inside the enormous skull.

Even while playing with it, the surface seemed to glow with a special luminescence, resembling faintly burning netherflame.

"Or do you wish to see something else?"

Lisa was momentarily speechless, but Fu Qian didn’t press her, gesturing behind as he spoke.

"No need... This is already great."

Confirming that he really intended to give her this item as the spoils of their venture, Lisa didn’t offer unnecessary politeness and decisively accepted it, glancing towards the depths of the mist.

The enormous body, after the successive trampling just now, had finally quieted down, disintegrating completely.
