Chapter 1679: 22.65 Third Red Star - No Mercy
The God of Destruction's point of view.
The domain of destruction. An area created by power and soul. Both as someone meant for destruction can only exist in a place filled with chaos and disturbance. With a forgotten previous life I intentionally let go of, I live my life standing on the battlefield. The scent of blood and the feeling of cutting something alive made me feel alive. After all, I cannot feel any pain.
One can cut off my hand, stab my leg, dig my heart, or behead me. However, there is no pain. I don't fear death. I welcome it, but it won't take me away. After all, I can't die. I am born immortal. I can only watch those who are by my side die one by one. Watch them suffer in the agony of pain and finally silently take their breath away. Though the death of the strangers doesn't stir up my heart. This scene gave him a feeling of déjà vu.
I questioned myself. What is it about death that attracted my attention too much? The process of death is so boring after seeing all kinds in these thousands of years. If it's not the process, is it the subject of death instead? However, I have seen countless beings die, and no one was able to move me at all. Forgot about it for now. A new wave of foreign aliens who want to take over the cosmos is coming again. They are endless. They keep on coming no matter how many I kill.
At the frontline where the boundaries of their cosmos exist, a crack appeared. I exist to stand before this place and protect it. Kill all invaders and fight for all eternity. That's the reason for my existence, and I don't deny it. I sat among the mountains of corpses, both of my enemies and my kind. His domain gave him absolute authority, and everything in it was his.
Thus, seeing countless corpses in your own house doesn't seem like a good thing. It's too disgusting. Let's bury them and hide them under a flower garden. The God of Destruction's thoughts. He checks around his storage looking for some kind of thing that can be planted. However, there is nothing like that. Finally, he recalled that small garden for the chaos flower in his soul. He took up a few and planted them.
War battlefields are where chaos energy is the most abundant. After planting a few cosmos flowers, it didn't take long for them to spread, leaving a silver carpet made of chaos flowers. I made my domain beautiful. However, no matter how beautiful this place is, this is still his battlefield and a graveyard for those who have fallen under his blade. He looked at the starry galaxy. He stood at the peak of power, yet this place is the loneliest it can be.
There is no one who can stand by my side, and I can only live this way for eternity. Is there truly no one capable of staying by my side?

Back in reality…
The same melancholic feeling that he still stood at that endless battlefield entered Hei Anjing's heart. He looked at the starry sky above him in a daze and looked extremely lonely. What he didn't know was that some were looking at him as well. Without any hesitation, this man walks towards him, invading his lonely world. He approached him and hugged him from behind with two domain mixing.
The God of Void whispered, "Jing'er, I am here. I will accompany you anywhere, even to hell, if I must."
The lifeless eyes of the God of Destruction sparked with light as if life had returned to him. The warmth that envelopes his body also gives the same warmth to his heart. The feeling of desolation for being lonely at the peak of the world melted as he looked at the God of Void, who was hugging him.
Hei Anjing said, "Alright. Shall we fall together then?"
One white and one black. Everyone looked at the two gods in the sky, and even the World Eater was shocked.
The World Eater, An Shizhe, mumbles, "Is it possible to merge domains?!"
"For these two, it's possible. The marriage trial they had completed gave them this ability. They shared everything: the abilities they possess, their lifespan as well as their life itself. Unless both of them are killed, the other half will resurrect endlessly," said the God of the Sea. He only knew about these things because he was connected to the main body, which was the Ancient God of Chaos, Hunluan. "The original one said, 'When you return to your peak, find him and complete the same trial.'"
The soul fragment of Hunluan added, "However, you should still be careful. Not all the soul fragments of Hunluan wanted you to return. Some of them had their memories stuck at that time he was most desperate, and when you lose your sanity."
The World Eater looked delighted with that message at first, but after hearing the last sentences, he frowned. Though he knew that the Hunluan was alive, he didn't know where he was right now, and even their son had no idea where he was. Adding the fact that his cultivation hasn't returned to its peak, he didn't know if the world his other half is in would be willing to accept someone like him, who was considered the menace of all existence.
It wouldn't be surprising if some of his soul fragments don't accept him at all. Even so, there should be a possibility that, after all, his child and the other children might be scared of his aura; as long as he controls it well, he will be able to live with the rest of them.
As the attack from the outside falling on them got closer, the God of Void and the God of Destruction, who had been waiting for it, made a move. Using Juedi, the black scythe, and Shenyuan, the god-slaying sword, cutting the power of gluttony is simply easy, as their natal weapons aren't meant to be eaten or destroyed by anything.
The huge ball made from the power of gluttony split into three parts. Two pieces ended up with the couple, and the last one went to the world eater to help him regain a bit of his strength. The split power was eaten by their respective gluttony; among the three, only the power of gluttony, the god of the void, remained as an egg. However, after eating the power its master had fed it just now. It grew in size. The purplish-black egg that he can hold in one hand now needs two for it to wrap carefully.

Outside the star, in the galaxy.
Lord Chaos, Tun Shizhe, and Gui Xiajun were watching the situation from a distance. The moment the two gods from the star wielded their weapons, a sword and blade intent on a clean cut, through the attack they had unleashed, making them frown. Though they already expected that this attack would not cause too much harm to that couple, they still believe that they can somehow shake this little star.
Sigh~
Tun Shizhe said, "I told you the ability of gluttony to devour stars is exclusive to the original World Eater. It wasn't something I and this bastard could do." He said while pointing at Gui Xiaji beside him, calling him a bastard.
Gui Xiajun's face turned cold when he was suddenly turned into a bastard. Though he is not a bastard but pretended to be one, being called one angered him the most, as this is the word he was used to hearing when he was young. He was made into a bastard by his own father, Ye Mo, just to keep his elder brother shackled by their race.
"Who are you calling a bastard? Do you want to die?"
Snorts!
Tun Shizhe looked at him with disdain and said, "As if you can kill me? Right now, you are only as strong as I am. Do you think you still have an advantage against me?"
The two, Tun Shizhe and Gui Xiajun, were glaring at each other. In reality, Gui Xiajun had gotten weaker ever since the last world. He had been injured twice, and he kept bothering the God of Destruction ever since he was exposed and didn't even have time to completely heal himself.
"I'm going to devour you!"
"Haha~ don't throw your anger at me. You are the one who lost a partner and controlled yourself from going mad. No wonder you got weaker~" said Tun Shizhe.
However, they didn't notice the domain that had long spread under their feet as they were busy watching the scene. It was Lord Chaos who noticed it as he felt someone coming over. Seeing that this familiar-looking white domain appeared under his feet, he tried to open a space portal to escape; unfortunately, as he expected, all laws within this domain were sealed.
Lord Chaos cursed, "Why did it suddenly appear in the dark galaxy? Isn't white supposed to be conspicuous in the dark?!"
The two men beside him who were fighting realized what was happening as they also tried to escape. But it was too late, as those gods from the small star had appeared before them. The God of Destruction appeared with the God of Void. He looked at Lord Chaos with mirth in his silver eyes as his lips were up and turned into a mischievous smirk.
Hei Anjing said, "I guess sparing you that one time was truly a mistake. I shall end you cleanly right now!"
Tun Shizhe and Gui Xiajun tried to stop him. "Wait!"
However, it was simply too fast for them to stop the death scythe of the God of Destruction from cutting Lord Chaos. The man was instantly cut in half, and it was done without any hesitation or mercy. That's how ruthless the God of Destruction is to his enemies. Even if they are connected to him, even if they happen to be something that is a part of him, he will eliminate them properly as long as they are deemed enemies.
