Chapter 168: Power of Extinction

Fike stared at the rainbow of light that had suddenly erupted out of Eddie Moss.

His voice trembled as he muttered to himself.

“Could it be that Eddie Moss has already awakened the power of the original god?”

As he watched, Eddie suddenly took to the skies, and a golden eye similar to Fike’s appeared on his forehead.

A strange golden light bloomed from the eye, brilliantly illuminating his face.

Fike could feel the accumulating power of the Demon Slaying Ray that Eddie was charging up rapidly increasing, almost at the point of breaking through into the domain of a demigod’s skill.

At this moment, Eddie, who was hovering in the air, suddenly laughed and challenged Gu Wuya.

“Senior brother! I’ll let you see exactly how powerful my next move is!”

Suddenly, the golden light on Eddie Moss’ forehead shot toward Gu Wuya, its speed and power completely taking every disciple of the East Immortal Sect present by surprise.

“Why… why was Eddie Moss able to… explode with such astonishing power in such a short period of time?”

Xiao Zhao’s voice trembled as she questioned.

The golden beam effortlessly pierced through Gu Wuya’s protective barrier.

The man was forced a few steps back after receiving the full blow of the mutated Demon Slaying Ray, his clothes quickly torn open by the blinding light.

His muscles under them were not spared either, and wounds started to open across his body as they were torn apart.

Gu Wuya spat out a mouthful of blood.

Despite that, he resisted tenaciously against the remaining power of the golden light.

After a few more seconds, it finally dissipated.

As he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, Gu Wuya suddenly burst into laughter.

He said to Eddie Moss, who was still suspended in midair.

“Junior brother! Looks like I have underestimated my opponent! I don’t think I need to be humble for a third move. Come on! Let me use all of my strength to display my best battle stance!”

As soon as Gu Wuya had finished speaking, he tore through space and time as he took out a sharp silver sword from a distorted void in the air.

“This sword is named Nirvana. It’s a peerless divine weapon that I’ve spent six years forging. I’ve never used it to fight anyone before. It seems that today, Nirvana will taste blood for the first time!”

Fike watched as an immense surge of Sword Qi began to encircle the blade.

At this moment, a hidden message was transmitted.

[Hidden Information: Nirvana, King-tier. It was created by the eastern world’s original god, Lord of Emotions, Gu Wuya. It’s a peerless divine weapon that perfectly suits every sword technique in the world. Whenever this sword is unleashed, it will definitely be stained with blood.]

When he saw the hidden message describing the lethal weapon in Gu Wuya’s hand, Fike couldn’t help but sigh.

“As expected of the Lord of Emotions, Gu Wuya, who wrote the Celestial Arcanum. The power of this Nirvana blade is indeed extraordinary. It seems to be even stronger than the demonic sword…”

Just as Fike was muttering…

The blade in Gu Wuya’s hand plunged toward Eddie with mad speed.

Eddie Moss did not have time to dodge at all, and was forced to receive Gu Wuya’s fatal thrust.

Watching from below the stage, Fike saw this and quickly recognized the attack as the sixth stance of the 32 Swords Slash.

Speed, ferocity, and stability were all essential factors.

However, Fike felt that compared to when he had used the 32 Swords Slash himself previously, he never seemed to have achieved the same power as Gu Wuya.

Nirvana in Gu Wuya’s hands was like a venomous snake with its jaws wide open, charging straight toward Eddie at blinding speed.

The Sword Qi around the blade gracefully complemented Gu Wuya’s stances.

Although Eddie was hovering in mid-air, Gu Wuya, relying on his tremendous strength alone, was able to launch himself up to his opponent.

Despite already entering the demigod stage, Eddie was completely defenseless against Gu Wuya’s fatal thrust.

Nirvana stabbed cleanly into Eddie Moss’ shoulder, the blade effortlessly plunging itself into its target.

Furthermore, the Sword Qi that had been encircling the blade forced themselves through his body.

Eddie’s body felt as if countless man-eating ants had invaded. The pain was unbearable, the drastic effects of Sword Qi circulating internally within a body on full display.

“This move is to show you the difference between you and me!”

As Gu Wuya spoke, he fiercely pulled out Nirvana in his hand, as the remaining Sword Qi lingered on his target’s body.

At this moment, Gu Wuya pressed close to Eddie’s ear and continued.

“If that sword had pierced your heart, what would have happened?”

Eddie Moss was in a horrible condition now.

He spat out a mouthful of viscous blood, unable to speak at all.

Before he could even react, the sword in Gu Wuya’s hand once again sucked in the surrounding air like a vacuum, which it condensed into streaks of potent Sword Qi.

As Nirvana was raised once again, the energy surrounding it seemed to form a whirlpool, the chaotic winds continuously converging in mid-air.

Without leaving any time for Eddie Moss to dodge, another sharp stab pierced through his abdomen.

At this moment, Gu Wuya only smiled as he said to his opponent.

“I did say to you that we are the same type of people, but your current strength is completely unable to contend with mine! Play your role as a junior brother obediently!”

After receiving the vicious blows, Eddie Moss fell straight down onto the stage as Gu Wuya remained hovering in mid-air.

The disciples of the East Immortal Sect below all wore astonished expressions as they looked at the scene before their eyes.

“Eldest senior brother’s sword technique seems to have improved even more! It’s really too amazing!”

“Yes, yes! Judging by eldest senior brother’s current strength, he will probably cultivate to become an immortal in just a few years!”

“If only I was half as powerful as eldest senior brother! Forget cultivating to become an immortal, I could at least roam the human world!”

Looking at the fallen Eddie Moss, a trace of worry appeared in Fike’s heart.

At this time, Gu Wuya had also returned to his previous position as he asked.

“Do we still need to continue?”

Eddie Moss struggled with difficulty, and said in a weak voice.

“No… no need. It’s… I lost.”

Fike immediately rushed to the arena after seeing that Eddie had surrendered, and took out the pill he had prepared earlier to feed him.

The moment that Eddie swallowed it, the wounds on his body miraculously started healing instantly.

Both Gu Wuya on the stage and the other disciples below looked on with incredulous expressions.

“Hey! What is this thing?”

Gu Wuya asked.
