Liu Shuying is not only the ruler of the Current World Divine Seal, but also the holder of the Complete Divine Seal's authority. Since Little Bowl and I aim to grasp the Complete Divine Seal, we must first defeat Liu Shuying.

Moreover, unlike Master of Divine Seal Tai Sui, Liu Shuying's goal isn't the "previous world," but the "next world," yet both share a consistency in that their wishes will ultimately encompass this current world.

To step back, Liu Shuying might indeed differ from Master of Divine Seal Tai Sui, who wants to revert this current world to its original form. His wish might be realized without altering the current world. For instance, if he desires to venture to a stage that matches his adventurous spirit, there's no need to change this world; he can use the Divine Seal's power to achieve the journey, much like Shan Liangyi to the otherworldly realm.

Even so, we can't watch him take away the Divine Seal necessary to save this world, nor can we expect him to mercifully resolve the Doomsday crisis before setting out after restoring the Complete Divine Seal. I know, since he is the same type of person as I was in the past, that Doomsday's allure will inevitably not be less powerful for him. He will undoubtedly realize Doomsday in some world—so why couldn't it be this one?

For this unavoidable adversary Liu Shuying, Little Bowl has prepared some strategic plans in advance.

The simplest route is to prevent him from accessing the Current World Divine Seal. We must first seize the Current World Divine Seal ourselves and use its power to swiftly eradicate the "unarmed" Liu Shuying. Although previously it was said that after Old Fist God's death, there would be an opening for Liu Shuying to seize the Current World Divine Seal, Little Bowl also considered ways to prevent this situation.

Since my flame is my spirit and an extension of my body, I could possibly cover the Current World Divine Seal and control it while using my flame to kill Old Fist God. Although no one can be sure that I can defeat Old Fist God before the actual fight, we can only devise this strategy on the premise that I can. This would allow for a seamless takeover process of the Current World Divine Seal.

Unfortunately, human plans cannot surpass divine will. Who knew Old Fist God would lock the Current World Divine Seal together with Earth, directly thwarting Little Bowl's strategy. We never expected everything to go our way. The possibility of Liu Shuying seizing the Current World Divine Seal was also within our reluctant calculations. At this moment, I was already unleashing it.

The moment Liu Shuying obtained the Current World Divine Seal, an immense power fluctuation erupted from it, sweeping towards me. It was like the Third Door attacking the Second Door, or Impermanence striking the Great Success Rank; the disparity in power was at least two orders of magnitude. Not to mention my current weakened, near-death state—even at my complete form, there's no way to withstand this attack.

This overwhelming power is entirely composed of True Spirit Power, and once struck, revival would be impossible. Even being grazed would leave horrendous, unhealable injuries.

On the way, I had already transferred all my power to Little Bowl. At this moment, with the support power, Little Bowl, who was already at the tail end of suppressing Tai Sui, finally completely suppressed Tai Sui.

I vaguely heard Tai Sui sigh. Simultaneously, Little Bowl finally replaced the position of Master of the Doomsday Divine Seal.

Using the link between us as a medium, a power fluctuation equally boundless as the Current World Divine Seal surged turbulently, engulfing me like a vast ocean.

The power of the Doomsday Divine Seal enveloped me, forming a defensive circle akin to a Force Field Shield.

Liu Shuying's Current World Divine Seal power swallowed me whole, yet it couldn't break this unexpectedly solid defense circle. Liu Shuying likely didn't anticipate that I could still struggle for survival in such a moment, so the density of this blow from the Current World Divine Seal Power wasn't that high. I seemed to become an ant blocking a high-pressure water gun; although I wasn't shattered within, a considerable force carried through the destructive momentum hit the rear, bombarding Earth.

The power fluctuation struck the North Pole. In an instant, the entire Arctic Ocean evaporated, and what happened next was just like the ballistic gel footage I'd seen in TV programs observing bullet impacts. On the exposed seabed of the Arctic Ocean, the force pierced through, creating a giant hole a thousand kilometers in size.

On the south side of Earth, the vast Antarctic continent, spanning over 14 million square kilometers of frozen land, soared into the sky along with surrounding ocean areas, brutally torn from the earth's crust by the explosive force. The substantial southern hemisphere area was occupied by the suddenly blasted-out giant cavity. Endless mantle and core materials exploded into cosmic space from the massive hole.

The consequences of this great destruction are not limited to a massive change on Earth's surface. The devastation event in the southern hemisphere was as if an invisible cosmic giant considered Earth as a piece of fruit, opening its "bloody mouth" and taking a fierce bite. From this moment on, Earth is no longer spherical.

Countless materials composing celestial bodies departed from gravity due to the explosion's impetus; I was also struck to the opposite side of the celestial body, flying into deep space alongside these substances. In the future, some of these materials might be captured by Earth's gravity and become part of Earth's mass again, and others might gather in the distant future to form a second moon, or merge into the currently shattered moon, while the remaining portion will likely be lost forever.

The battle between me, Shan Liangyi, and Old Fist God, despite causing extremely high destruction to Earth, even resulted in slower rotation speeds and axial shifts, among other consequences. However, due to the concentrated density of power, there wouldn't be catastrophic biological extinction and human race extinction outcomes in a short time.

But Liu Shuying's blow was fundamentally different in nature. His very first strike transformed Earth from a life-bearing planet into a literal Purgatory celestial body in the blink of an eye. Mantle layers surged and roared above the crust; destructive shock waves carried lethal heat and dust globally. Outside the giant cavity, land and oceans erupted with countless super volcanic phenomena; even areas without volcanoes formed numerous rift valleys, spewing massive lava materials as if wounds gushing blood plasma.

The fire light swiftly covered Earth, reverting it to the Primordial Era enveloped by scorching lava and toxic gases. Aside from the Great Success Rank and Impermanence, no living creature can survive there. Not even the most advanced technology can help the human race continue on such a celestial body.

"Zhuang Cheng, another me—" Liu Shuying's voice, filled with mirth, came over, "Do you like the funeral I prepared for you?"

"Funeral?" I looked towards the voice, "I'm not dead yet."

Liu Shuying, holding the Current World Divine Seal, stood against the cosmic backdrop filled with countless flying burning matter, and smiled, "Yes, you've actually grasped the Doomsday Divine Seal at this critical juncture. It's a shame for the funeral I conducted for you.

"However... this isn't entirely a bad thing.

"On the road to regaining the true status of the Master of Divine Seal, if I only watched your battle and benefitted from it, it wouldn't do justice to my identity. I also want to join in your dragon-tiger fight, engage in a battle of wills, and dance in the seam between life and death.

"Come on, Zhuang Cheng, now it's our turn. You have the Doomsday Divine Seal, I have the Current World Divine Seal; now we stand on equal ground for a fair and just fight right here.

"Let this victory or defeat decide who truly is the ruler of the New World!"

"Fair and just?" I retorted, "Are you sure?"

As I spoke, I felt the power of the Doomsday Divine Seal on me, then reached out with my hand. A disc appeared in my hand. Completely opposite in color to the white Current World Divine Seal in Liu Shuying's hand, this is the black Divine Seal disc. It's the Doomsday Divine Seal.

At this moment, all the cracks on the Doomsday Divine Seal have disappeared, showing a completely unmarred state.

The soul aura of Tai Sui can no longer be felt; it's replaced by the soul aura of Little Bowl, which exudes a warm and affectionate feeling.

"Brother Zhuang Cheng..."

Little Bowl's voice emerged from the Doomsday Divine Seal, resonating in my mind as telepathy, "I've opened up all permissions of the Doomsday Divine Seal to you, please use this power to defeat Liu Shuying."

"Alright."

I responded in my mind, attempting to operate it.

Just like using the Divine Seal Fragment in the past, I sensed an invisible connection between myself and the Doomsday Divine Seal. Specifically, the true connection with the Doomsday Divine Seal occupied only a small part of it, corresponding to one thirty-fifth of the Doomsday Divine Seal's permissions. The connection between Little Bowl, now both the soul of the Doomsday Divine Seal and my companion, was indeed the main part.

Little Bowl seemed to become the operating system of the Doomsday Divine Seal, and with her wholehearted support, I could freely mobilize the power within it.

In terms of power, the dimensional difference between the Divine Seal Fragment and the Doomsday Divine Seal was unknown, my own power was insignificant compared to the Doomsday Divine Seal.

The power enhancement of the Doomsday Divine Seal on me made all aspects of my abilities explode with wild growth. With just a thought, the Power of Return flashed across me. The True Spirit, once in a state of near-death weakness, restored to full condition in the blink of an eye. Then flames ignited on me, these were not flames of my normal mana, but purely formed by True Spirit Power.

"Oh? Do you have any doubts about the fairness of this battle?" Liu Shuying said, "Although you seem to have an additional person on your side, she is a tool necessary for you to operate the Doomsday Divine Seal, I won't criticize your approach, or do you think I still hold some advantage?

"...that said, even though we both have Divine Seals, this is just an equality of external conditions. As peers of the Third Door's Impermanence, I am on par with the Old Fist God, stronger than you. The odds are indeed more in my favor.

"But that's just because you're not skilled enough; if you want to complain, blame your own lack of strength."

Listening to his words, I said, "No, you misunderstood two things."

"Misunderstood... two things?" Liu Shuying wondered.

"First, Little Bowl is not my tool; second, this battle is slightly unfair to you." I said, "So if you're going to complain, you'd best blame yourself."

After speaking, I acted without waiting for Liu Shuying's response.
