Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor
chapter-327

Since using pure strength could not stop the spear, the Death God decided to use tactics. So, While holding the spear in one hand and being dragged, he took out a scepter with the other hand.

He concentrated all his power and hit the spear again, this time not trying to stop it, but changing its direction. Then, the Death God moved away from its path.

The spear flew to the sky at maximum speed until it hit the shield that surrounded the Death Realm. It did not penetrate it, only slightly shook it. This small reaction did not matter for the people inside, but this was important news for the ones outside.

Outside of the Death Realm, the 35 Supreme Gods floated in the void as they looked at the shield that suddenly appeared and separated the Death Realm from the rest of the world.

They finally realized that the Outsiders have started to act against them. And what shocked them was that their first move was so large in scale. Previously, when they faced invasions from other worlds, none of them were as powerful or efficient as this one.

As such, the majority of them became flustered and did not know what to do. They began to argue between them about their next course of action. Luckily, the Destiny Goddess and the Life Goddess stood up and took charge.

They asked the remaining people to use all their strength to try to break the shield and see what was happening inside. Unfortunately, no matter what method they used, the shield remained unaffected.

But, they did not stop their assault.

Meanwhile, the Death God became more furious after Li Jun's attack; in his infinite life, he had never suffered such humiliation. He looked at his opponent furiously, before flying away to his Heavenly Abode.

Under his control, the abode turned into a small star and was absorbed by the Death God. Instantly, a powerful aura emanating from his body covered the entire Death Realm.

The aura was powerful, deadly, making the souls of all living things tremble and worship him. Fortunately, the Slaughter Legion and Undying Legions had a vast amount of slaughter qi in their bodies from their intense training.

As soon as that aura wanted to invade their minds, a red aura suddenly enveloped these Legions and protected them.

As for people like Wang Ju, Tie Gang, and Yan Liling; they could not care less about such tactic of intimidation.

Li Jun raised his head to look at the Death God as he muttered to himself: "His strength increased from the beginning of the Shattered Void Realm to the Peak; he can even be considered a Half-Saint."

The fighting intent in his eyes increased. Although he was only in the Divine Body Realm, his strength was equal to people in the Saint Realm after being trained by Wang Wei.

He could kill ordinary Saint, fight equally to genius Saint, run away from Heaven Chosen Saint. Only Heaven Defying Saints like sect master Wang Tian could instantly kill him.

Of course, this classification only applied to people who just entered the Saint Realm.

So, the Death God's current strength could only slightly raise his fighting spirit. He rushed towards his opponent with the halberd in his hands; with his armor, he looked like a God of War going through war.

He swung it down with tremendous force. The Death God was momentarily caught off guard by Li Jun's speed and reaction, so he could only instinctively raise his scepter and block.

A powerful force came from the clash forcing him to fly away a dozen kilometers before he managed to control himself. Once again, the Death God felt humiliated.

As a god, he was forced into this situation.

He raised his hand and said out loud: "Death Judgement."

A huge book suddenly appeared in the sky, gleaming with the power of Law. It locked on Li Jun and begin to scan his body and soul with some weird method.

Finally, characters that composed of his name were slowly being written in the book, and Li Jun could feel that his lifespan was slowly dissipating. He could feel that once his name is completely written, he would die.

He controlled his origin essence to turn into Death Qi to surround his body, then he cut off the connection of this book to himself; regrettably, his actions were partly successful.

He did not completely cut off the connection, but drastically decrease the rate at which his lifespan is decreasing. According to his calculation, he probably will lose five years of lifespan after 24 hours. To him, this was plenty of time to end this battle.

Li Jun looked at the Death God who had an ugly look on his face and swung his halberd once again.

This time, he did not use direct confrontation of brute strength, instead used an origin ability.

A Gigantic Halberd of similar size to the book materialized, before rushing towards it; its whole purpose was to destroy the book. As the Death God did not want this to happen, he immediately took action.

A colossal arm came out of his body to block the spear; the arm was devoid of any skin and flesh: it only had red bones.

The sky trembled because of the confrontation of these two; powerful and large-scale shockwaves spread like wildfire in all directions. To the mortals of this world who rarely interact or witness the power of Gods unless, through stories, this was the definition of a divine battle.

The red-bone arm could only momentarily stop the spear. However, this was all it needed. Soon after that, another weird scene occurred.

The other parts of this bone hand rapidly came out of the Death God's body. Then, a massive red bone giant with a beating heart under his ribs showed up.

With two hands, he held the halberd that was descending towards the book. Taking this opportunity, the Death God blessed the Judgement Book with his Law Power and increase its strength.

Li Jun felt the rate at which his lifespan is decreasing rapidly accelerated. He frowned before saying: "I originally wanted to play with you a little to learn how strong the Supreme Gods are and how they fight, now, I do not want to anymore."

After hearing that the Supreme Gods could use the power of Law, Li Jun and the group knew that this world was not simple and wanted to gather more information.

So, their plan was to use this fight to learn about the Gods. And in this brief battle, Li Jun already learned something important; to be exact, he confirmed a theory that he had.

These Gods do not control the law, they can borrow its power. This is the reason that even though the Death God control such a power law as death, yet, he was still so weak; it's not just because their God Civilization has been isolated for so long making them underdeveloped.

Middle Thousand World cannot give birth to cultivators that control the law. However, the Gods of these worlds use the unique state of this world along with their unique cultivation system to borrow the law and use it.

Li Jun wondered who came out with this cultivation system. Although it had many flaws and restrictions, it is still an ingenious one. He did not believe for a second that the aboriginal people of this world created it.

Maybe he was being arrogant and condescending, but he still believe in his judgment.

A Slaughter Will suddenly appeared on Li Jun's body and he swung his halberd once again. A red slash that was quicker than the speed of sound rushed towards the Death God–who instantly felt that death was approaching him.

A black armor suddenly appeared on the Death God's body, covering every single inch of it. Once the slash hit it, he was only pushed a few steps back, with only a slash mark on the armor.

"Armor Law?" said Li Jun in surprise. This is a secret technique that is controlled by most Holy Land and above in the Myriad Emperor World. It allowed a Void Shattering Realm cultivator to condense his power of Law into armor as a life-saving method.

In any dangerous situation, a Void Shattering Realm cultivator with this secret technique is most likely to survive than ordinary ones. This technique is strictly controlled to ensure that disciples of these high-level sects have an advantage over lower-level sects, sects that do not have a deep background or foundation, and loose cultivators.

According to regulation accepted by all cultivators, for a sect to proclaim itself as a Holy Land, not only does it need to have a certain number of Saint Realm cultivators, it also needs to have an Armor Law Secret Technique along with a few other conditions.

This is the reason that Li Jun was a little surprised after seeing the Death God use this technique; he wondered where he got it from.

Li Jun's eyes lit up as he realized that the secrets of this world are deeper than he imagined.
