Chapter 604 - 466: Morning Comprehension of the Dao, Evening Death (Part 2)
However, in Meng Tianqi’s domain, it didn’t have much effect!
The Life and Death Grinding Disc, only attacks without defense!
When the omnipresent Life and Death Grinding Disc erupted, a sound as if from the Nine Netherworlds instantly resounded in every corner of the Life and Death Domain, and then each Demon Race’s physical body began to wither madly, turning into nothingness, losing a portion of life force!
Of course, this life force didn’t disappear out of thin air, but was instead added as supplementary power for the Life and Death Grinding Disc, continuing to transform into the power that attacked them!
In just a moment, ten Void Refining Demon Races suffered heavy losses!
Subsequently, a series of explosion sounds of unimaginable power rang out... Meng Tianqi’s Life and Death Domain was pierced with three openings, and three figures flew out, surprisingly three King Level Void Refining Demon Races!
But their state upon flying out was extremely wretched, as more than half of their life force had been extracted by the Life and Death Grinding Disc, and their entire bodies were still eroded by the Power of Death, with their physical forms continuing to decline at a terrifying speed.
"Madman!"
"He’s really a damn madman!"
The three King Level Demon Races looked at the Life and Death Domain that almost swallowed them, an unstoppable fear in their eyes!
Who could imagine that ten Void Refining Demon Races joined forces, with five among them being the top King Levels, ended up almost entirely annihilated!
And now, as the commotion within the Life and Death Domain gradually disappeared, the fate of the seven Void Refining Demon Races that escaped was self-evident... even those who escaped had suffered unimaginable heavy damage!
Before they pursued Meng Tianqi, they never expected that a team of ten demons would unexpectedly fall by seven! The remaining three of them were also severely injured, with their strength not even half of their peak period.
With their current injuries, their recovery would be extremely difficult, and how to completely eradicate the Power of Death on their bodies was also a very troublesome problem.
However, what comforted them was that after this outburst of power, the Life and Death Domain rapidly shrank, and Meng Tianqi’s aura quickly declined.
This indicated that Meng Tianqi had no strength left to fight again or had perished after sacrificing himself.
And with the complete disappearance of the Life and Death Domain, the situation inside was revealed.
As the Life and Death Domain dissipated, the bodies of the seven demon corpses, turned into withered remains, fell from the air, leaving no trace of life force on them, only a layer of Power of Death that made the surviving three Demon Race members’ scalps tingle!
Once they came into contact with that force, their wounds were bound to worsen further!
However, what terrified them even more was that Meng Tianqi’s power had not completely dissipated, but left a smaller Life and Death Grinding Disc floating in the air, containing the rich life force from their Demon Race and a trace of Meng Tianqi’s aura!
This remnant Life and Death Grinding Disc had no intention of attacking them; it merely wavered in form before diving into the void to leave...
Faced with this scene, the surviving three King Level Void Refining Demon Races exchanged glances and chose not to pursue, instead moving off in the opposite direction!
Although they knew that if they chased, there was a great chance to completely obliterate Meng Tianqi, at the same time, there was also a possibility that one among their three might perish!
This was absolutely something they did not want to face.
Fearlessness in the face of death was merely for those demons under control with lower intelligence, and only under the command of Advanced Demon Races would they charge fearlessly. How could these Advanced Demons throw their lives away for nothing?
As hunters flock to capture prey, sacrifice is absolutely not an option!
Many of them had climbed from the bottom of the Demon Race hierarchy, often being the smartest and most afraid of death, possessing the utmost evil and best at launching attacks like a venomous snake...
Yet regardless of the situation, unless controlled, they would never choose to sacrifice themselves.
To survive! And devour everything possible to devour, that is their most innate desire!
This is the current state of the Demon Race’s upper echelon.
So, when faced with battles without certainty, they didn’t hesitate to turn away...
This Star Sea World is too strange; they had never encountered such an Immortal Cultivation Realm in the past....
....
On the other side, Meng Tianqi wasn’t completely dead, but was almost there.
Originally, if he manipulated the last hidden Life and Death Grinding Disc to attack, he might have been able to kill another Demon Race member, but he didn’t do so.
He already chose the greater good, believing that at this point, the remaining matters could be left to others in the Star Sea World. Now, he needed to seize one last chance for himself!
He wanted to use this last precious bit of time to comprehend and integrate the Life and Death Law!
This Life and Death Grinding Disc wouldn’t last long; he had to ensure that he could reach a state of long-term survival within the Life and Death Law during this timeframe, only then could he have a chance to be reborn!
However, this thought merely flashed through his mind for a moment, for Meng Tianqi was utterly entranced at this moment!
"So this is the true Life and Death Law!"
In some hidden void, Meng Tianqi’s last consciousness immersed fully in the joy of blending and intertwining with the Dao Laws...
All those doubts and questions that had troubled him for so many years were now suddenly cleared!
"So this is it... so this is it!"
The feeling of having such confusion dissolved and past pursuits realized was truly exhilarating.
Even though when the Life and Death Grinding Disc’s power could no longer withstand the erosion of the Life and Death Law, it would be when he was entirely merged and perished with it.
But was this not something he had always wanted to attempt?
Ironically, his enamored state was also the best way to save himself, for without a proper grasp over the Life and Death Law, no one could withstand the Dao’s erosion.
And as time slowly passed, Meng Tianqi’s hiding Life and Death Grinding Disc became smaller and smaller...
Gradually, it couldn’t hold any longer and completely collapsed....
In an instant, the Power of Law where Meng Tianqi was surged violently, and Meng Tianqi had no choice but to merge his consciousness into the Life and Death Law...
And at the moment Meng Tianqi’s consciousness merged with the Life and Death Law, he felt as if he entered a dreamlike palace, every item was something he was most familiar with and loved, things he had pursued his entire life.
But at the same time, this palace was frantically twisting, his favorite things continuously assaulting and devouring him!
At this moment, Meng Tianqi was like a solitary boat in a tempestuous sea, insignificant and helpless, with no one to help him except himself.
This was the first time Meng Tianqi truly witnessed the true Life and Death Law, more powerful and vast than he imagined. He once thought he had grasped most of the Life and Death Law, but it was laughably naïve.
To truly control the power of the Life and Death Law, he still had a long way to go!
"What a charming place, a pity... there’s never a chance to see it again..."
Though Meng Tianqi never stopped his pursuit of understanding and exploration, with his consciousness blurring and weakening, little time remained for him!
In the end, he overestimated himself and underestimated the Life and Death Law!
No wonder they say only at the Integration Stage can one truly begin to wield the power of Dao Laws; before Integration, everything was just a trifling jest!
"Enough, being able to glimpse this grand Dao palace before death, it wasn’t in vain!"
With his consciousness about to completely blur, Meng Tianqi finally let out a last sigh.
There was resignation in it, satisfaction, and a hint of regret for his unfinished mission.
In his final moments, Meng Tianqi thought again of the Star Sea World dramatically transformed under Qi Ping’s guidance, a sense of indescribable peace and comfort emerged in his consciousness.
This world may not always remain as broken as it is, perhaps one day it may see the light...
With this last thought flashing through his mind, Meng Tianqi completely lost his ability to think, his understanding of the Life and Death Law within his consciousness was being voraciously devoured by it, like a famished wolf...
