Chapter 37: Watching the Living
The moment the light landed on the Death God's illusory figure, a grating sound was emitted, and the Death God's illusory figure began to dim.
The Death God was enraged, waving his hand to summon a massive blood-colored bone scythe, which he swung fiercely at Huo Yuhao.
At the same time, the eyes of the white illusory figure behind Huo Yuhao shimmered with the rose-gold light of the Spirit Eyes, and the staff in his hand, formed by Tianmeng, was imbued with Destiny Power.
Huo Yuhao used the staff to block the scythe's attack, and with the indestructible characteristic bestowed by Destiny Power, both sides entered a stalemate in the air.
Huo Yuhao seized the opportunity to once again borrow the Eye of Life to gather colorful life light and attack the Death God's illusory figure.
The power of life and the Death God's death attribute are naturally opposing, and now, under the influence of the Douluo Plane, Huo Yuhao naturally held an advantage in terms of law attributes.
In his helplessness, the Death God could only use the resentment accumulated over many years on the Douluo Continent to form a blood pool to temporarily resist.
As the two sides continuously collided, the power of faith brought to Huo Yuhao by numerous souls and the resentment secretly collected by the Death God on the Douluo Continent were rapidly depleting.
Seeing that he couldn't do anything to Huo Yuhao for a while, the Death God had some intention of retreating.
"The current battle between us is not beneficial to either of us. Why don't we retreat now? I will return to my original God Realm, and you can save some power of faith as the foundation for your future God Position."
As soon as these words were spoken, Tang San, who was in the God Realm, nodded with satisfaction. This Death God clone was truly good at hiding; even he hadn't discovered that there was actually a clone of a foreign first-rank God on the Douluo Continent.
Now that Huo Yuhao, whom he favored, had driven him away, it could be considered a merit of his own.
However, Huo Yuhao's reply was beyond the expectations of both Tang San and the Death God.
"Things have come to this; tens of thousands of people have died. How can you come and go as you please? I have promised those departed souls to avenge them. Today, I must kill this clone of yours to give them an explanation."
Saying this, Huo Yuhao accelerated the activation of the spirit gold's life power, using a portion to convert into Destiny Power to enhance the staff, and the other portion to strengthen the intensity of the colorful attack.
The scythe in the Death God's hand was gradually lifted, and the blood pool was melting at light speed.
Seeing this, the Death God was immediately enraged, "You are truly a madman! Since those departed souls have given their faith to you, why bother with promises? Do you really think I have no way to deal with you?"
The Death God could not understand Huo Yuhao's reason for consuming the power of faith. Wouldn't it be better to save it for future God Position? Why did he have to fight him to the death?
Tang San also frowned at this moment. This Death God's illusory figure was, after all, a first-rank God clone.
Currently, he just didn't want to use the power of law in the Douluo Plane to avoid revealing his position. If the fight continued, Huo Yuhao wouldn't be able to stop him.
Once he made a move to destroy him, the God of Destruction would inevitably sense his traces, and then Huo Yuhao would not be able to conceal himself.
Just as Tang San was about to send Niu Tian and Tai Tan to assist, the Death God swung his scythe horizontally, instantly summoning a small World.
"Kid, today I'll show you my true strength."
Tens of thousands of undead creatures instantly surged out of the small World, swarming forward to attack Huo Yuhao.
At the same time, tens of thousands of departed souls also appeared around Huo Yuhao, disturbing his Spirit Sea.
"Electrolux, please, I'll leave these undead to you."
Huo Yuhao instructed in his Spirit Sea, ignoring everything else and taking advantage of the moment the Death God swung his scythe horizontally to strike the Death God with his staff.
"Don't worry, Yuhao, leave these to me."
Electrolux chanted a spell in the Spirit Sea, summoning the Undead Demigod Plane. Instantly, an equal number of undead with light aura began to fight the Death God's undead.
The departed souls around Huo Yuhao also began to have their grievances purified under the illumination of Electrolux's purifying light. Not only did they stop attacking Huo Yuhao, but they instead moved towards the gray-gold spirit ring.
The more the Death God fought, the more surprised he became. His undead, being restrained by the light attribute, were simply no match for the light undead.
However, this was still manageable, but every undead that died was purified by the power of light and turned into light undead, beginning to turn against him.
The departed souls he summoned not only failed to cause trouble for Huo Yuhao but also helped him increase his power of faith.
"Impossible, this is the aura of a first-rank law. How can you have the law of a first-rank God on you?"
The World Electrolux was in prevented him from becoming a God, otherwise he would have long since condensed his God Position, at worst achieving a first-rank God Position.
At this moment, how could the Death God, who could only use incomplete first-rank God laws, possibly compare to Electrolux in terms of laws?
Seeing that the Death God was about to be defeated, Huo Yuhao did not relax. Now that it was time for him to fight to the death, it was a dangerous moment.
"Good, good, good, kid, since you want to fight to the death today, you won't have an easy time either."
Saying this, the Death God clone actually burned the divine sense of this clone, fully unleashing the law of death, integrating it into the scythe, and swinging a black attack towards Huo Yuhao.
Perceiving that this attack had reached the intensity of a first-rank God's attack, Huo Yuhao chuckled softly.
"You underestimate the power of these ordinary people too much. The faith of tens of millions of ordinary people can forge the immortal God Position of a first-rank God. With the tens of thousands of departed souls you sent, the outcome is still unknown."
Huo Yuhao recalled Tianmeng to his Spirit Sea, and the Eye of Life blade appeared between his eyebrows.
Holding the Eye of Life blade, which had grown to the size of a Tang knife, Huo Yuhao gathered the expectations and aspirations of all the departed souls into it, using his own understanding of 'momentum' as a guide, and also swung a blade.
The attacks of both sides collided, feeling somewhat evenly matched, but as time passed, the power of faith in Huo Yuhao's blade rapidly depleted, while the Death God's divine sense had not yet been exhausted.
Just as Huo Yuhao sighed softly, preparing to use his ten-thousand-year luck to reverse the situation regardless of the backlash, the first ten thousand departed souls who had already been purified gave up their chance at reincarnation and burned their own souls.
In his mind, people of different ages, genders, and personalities bowed and thanked him, and Huo Yuhao's 'momentum' finally transformed again, a more powerful 'momentum' slowly forming.
"What I seek is retribution for good and evil, not only hoping it falls upon myself, but also hoping it falls upon all living beings."
"If I become a God in the future, all those whose hearts are towards light shall be watched over by me."
Without Huo Yuhao's notice, the divine abyss suddenly flickered with dazzling light, spreading outwards.
As this light spread throughout Huo Yuhao's entire Spirit Sea, the 'momentum' that could not be condensed by merely tens of thousands of souls instantly solidified.
"Death God, it's time for you to exit. In my era, there is no place for evil Spirit Masters."
As Huo Yuhao's words fell, the blade, imbued with the momentum of the Eye of Life, shattered the Death God's scythe, completely annihilating the Death God's divine sense.
The two illusory figures on the Mingdou Mountain Range began to slowly dissipate, and the colorful halo behind Huo Yuhao also gradually faded, once again becoming an ordinary 50th-level ultimate attribute Spirit Master.
