636 The Fall of the Divine King

Lin Feng glared coldly at the North River Divine King. Having comprehended the ultimate Law of Life, Lin Feng could clearly see the “weakness” of the North River Divine King. That was the combat body of the North River Divine King!

A combat body of 100,000 light-years was too powerful, almost comparable to Divine King Bemond.

However, the North River Divine King was a fiend. He relied on devouring countless living beings time and time again to strengthen his combat body, before he could finally condense a combat body of 100,000 light-years.

When fiends devoured lifeforms, they could increase their strength rapidly, and there was almost no bottleneck. They could obtain powerful strength in a short period of time. This was also why so many cultivators chose to become fiends.

However, while the path of a fiend led to their success, it would also lead to their downfall!

Perhaps even Divine Kings and Divine Venerables could not see the “weakness” of the North River Divine King. In fact, only Lin Feng, who had comprehended the Law of Life, could see the “weakness” of fiends.

Life force was illusory. Many people could sense life force, but who could control life force without comprehending the Law of Life?

Only Lin Feng, who had comprehended the ultimate Law of Life, could control life force. He could “see” the massive amount of life force in the body of the North River Divine King, which was almost infinite. However, at the same time, it was the life force of ordinary living beings, the life force of those “vengeful spirits”.

Hence, Lin Feng used the ultimate Law of Life to “liberate” the vengeful spirits of those living beings, allowing them to leave with their life force and become free.

From then on, the massive combat body of the North River Divine King collapsed completely.

In Lin Feng’s eyes, the North River Divine King was even easier to deal with than a Grand Emperor. His massive combat body was like a sieve, riddled with holes in Lin Feng’s eyes.

A hundred billion kilometers, a trillion kilometers, a trillion kilometers…

In the blink of an eye, the wound on the North River Divine King’s combat body had already expanded to a radius of one light-year. Moreover, it was still collapsing, and the speed of collapse was becoming faster and faster.

One light-year, ten light-years, a hundred light-years…

Seeing the combat body dozens or hundreds of light-years long collapse instantly, countless “vengeful spirits” were cheering. Perhaps there were 10 billion living beings, 100 billion living beings, or trillions of living beings.

Lin Feng did not know how many living beings had been devoured by the North River Divine King. The North River Divine King had operated in the North River Galaxy for tens of millions of years and harvested living beings regularly. Even the North River Divine King himself probably did not know how many he had devoured.

But now, the North River Divine King had truly experienced the retributions for himself.

It was not that retribution would not come, but that the time had yet to arrive!

Fiends devoured all living beings, and all living beings could also give the fiend a fatal blow at the critical moment. This was what was happening now. The vengeful spirits in the body of the North River Divine King surged out of the North River Divine King’s combat body, like a flood when a dam was broken.

“No, don’t. It’s billions of years of accumulation. It can’t be…”

The North River Divine King was already in despair. He stared intently at Lin Feng. Now, he did not even have the intention to kill Lin Feng. He could only watch helplessly as his combat body collapsed. It was only through billions of years of cultivation that he could achieve what he had today.

But now? It was destroyed overnight!

In a daze, the North River Divine King even seemed to hear the screams of countless vengeful spirits.

“Haha, if I can devour you once, I can devour you twice or thrice. Devour!”

The North River Divine King went completely berserk. Ignoring the constantly expanding injuries on his combat body, he devoured the surroundings in a frenzy again. He tried to devour back all the life force he had lost.

But was it possible?

Lin Feng was the only one who had comprehended the ultimate Law of Life. The North River Divine King had not. He devoured in a frenzy, but his wound continued to expand.

A hundred light-years, a thousand light-years, 3,000 light-years, 5,000 light-years, 8,000 light-years…

As they watched the combat body of the North River Divine King collapse continuously in an area of almost thousands of light-years, countless living beings were “liberated”. The spirits of countless victims even expressed their gratitude to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng also felt very happy deep down. Every life should be free from restraints.

Only a thousand light-years were left of the combat body of the North River Divine King, and it was still collapsing. Only now did he seem to have finally come to a realization, and tried to escape.

However, how could he escape while Lin Feng was here?

Boom.

Lin Feng extended his huge palm and grabbed the North River Divine King, who only had a combat body of 100 light-years left. Moreover, the North River Divine King’s combat body of 100 light-years was still collapsing continuously.

Death was already approaching the North River Divine King. At this moment, the North River Divine King was already in despair.

“Law of Life. It’s the Law of Life. I never expected a Supreme Grand Emperor like you to actually comprehend the ultimate Law. My loss is not unfair.”

In the end, on the verge of death, the North River Divine King actually regained his senses. He no longer struggled, nor did he go mad. He already knew his outcome.

“Lin Feng, you can stop me, all the fiends, but can you stop the chaos in the North River Galaxy? Hahaha, you can’t stop it. Without me, without the fiends, they will still kill each other, and it will even become more chaotic. More living beings will die.”

Lin Feng shook his head and said, “That’s not a reason for you to become a fiend! I’ll restructure order in the North River Galaxy and restore peace to it. As for you and the other fiends in the North River Divine Palace, you’ll become history forever…”

Lin Feng clenched his hand. At once, North River Divine King, who was only dozens of light-years now, was instantly reduced to a bloody mist. Under the detection of Lin Feng’s ultimate Law of Life, there was no possibility for the North River Divine King to recover.

There was a sound of wailing.

Faint, mournful cries seemed to echo through the entire cosmos.

With the fall of a Divine King, the Principle wailed!

This was the lament of the Principle, which meant that a Divine King had fallen.

The dignified North River Divine King had fallen at the hands of the Supreme Grand Emperor!

“Go, go. You are free, all of you.”

Lin Feng waved his hand, and countless living beings and vengeful spirits cheered and flew towards the universe. In reality, once they left the combat body of the North River Divine King, they would be reduced to ashes and cosmic dust in the blink of an eye.

However, to them, this was true “liberation”. They were no longer imprisoned forever. This was the freedom of life!

The North River Divine King was dead, completely dead. However, the area where the two of them fought had already become a dead land. The space that had been broken here would probably take billions of years to recover.

There had once been a great battle between Divine Kings. Just the aftershock of the battle alone had destroyed countless galaxies.

Fortunately, the North River Galaxy was still relatively intact. Despite the North River Divine King devouring it in a frenzy previously, while it had suffered some losses, its foundation was not damaged. This was a blessing amidst misfortune.

It was also the result of Lin Feng’s efforts to stop the North River Divine King.

Buzz.

Suddenly, traces of spatial ripples appeared in the cosmos, spreading in all directions.

At the same time, a terrifying aura emitted from the spatial passage. It was not inferior to the previous North River Divine King. This was also a Divine King.

“North River Divine King, you deserve death!”

There was a trace of anxiety and anger mixed in that voice. It was Divine King Bemond.

After Divine King Bemond received Lin Feng’s message, he warped space and rushed over immediately. The fact that a Divine King was actually a fiend caught Divine King Bemond off guard. He never expected that the North River Divine King could actually be a fiend.

However, he still rushed over immediately. He could not afford accidents when it came to Lin Feng. Lin Feng was a certain future Divine Emperor, and he absolutely would not allow anything to happen to Lin Feng.

Originally, Divine King Bemond thought that with Lin Feng’s strength, he could roam anywhere he wanted in the world. However, who would have thought that the North River Divine King was actually a fiend?

When Divine King Bemond descended into the North River Galaxy in fury, he saw Lin Feng at first glance.

Fortunately, Lin Feng’s aura was very normal. Nothing had happened to him.

“Your Majesty!”

Lin Feng was also very touched. The speed at which Divine King Bemond arrived was already very fast. After all, the North River Galaxy was too far from the Bemond Galaxy.

“Lin Feng, it’s good that you’re fine. Hmph, who’d have thought that the North River Divine King is actually a fiend? Fortunately, he knew his place and escaped quickly.”

Divine King Bemond snorted coldly. In his opinion, the North River Divine King must have fled immediately because he was worried that his identity would be exposed and a Divine King would rush over.

That was just as well. As long as Lin Feng was fine, Divine King Bemond would be satisfied. As for the North River Divine King on the run, the other Divine Kings definitely would not sit back and do nothing about a fiend who had become a Divine King. Even some ancient Divine Venerables would attack.

Divine King Bemond heaved a sigh of relief, but did not see Lin Feng shake his head discretely, his expression rather helpless. If he told Divine King Bemond the truth now, would Divine King Bemond believe him?

“Your Majesty, actually, the North River Divine King is already dead!”

After a long while, Lin Feng finally heaved a long sigh and spoke slowly.
