Suddenly, a peculiar eye-like opening appeared on the chest of the King of Hell, but unlike a real eye, the pupil was a deep black hole.
"Now, you belong to me..." the King of Hell said as he prepared to place Xinzhu into that open "eye."
At this moment, I felt no anxiety or tension, nor any unease or restlessness. Instead, I was filled with an overwhelming desire to confront this powerful King of Hell.
"Is it yours...?" I whispered, instantly transforming into a beam of black light that shot toward the King of Hell.
As I got closer, I reached out and snatched Xinzhu from his grasp, holding it firmly in my hand.
It was then that I noticed that although Xinzhu had taken on a human form, its face lacked any features, and there was no hair on its body. Its limbs were a vivid red, resembling someone whose skin had been stripped away. The chest area had no skin or muscle tissue; only two rows of ribs protected a pulsating red sphere in the center, much like a human's heart.
Holding the bewildered Xinzhu, I wasted no time and thrust my other hand forcefully into its chest cavity, gripping the glowing red sphere tightly. With a surge of strength, I yanked it out.
As soon as the sphere was removed from its body, Xinzhu let out a wail of despair, and its body instantly disintegrated into a cloud of red dust that scattered into the air.
"You..." The King of Hell was taken aback, his enormous palm reaching out to snatch it back.
I glanced at him and tightened my grip on Xinzhu. With a loud "bang," I crushed it in my hand, unleashing a cacophony of howls from the Evil Spirit and Vengeful Spirit within that echoed in my ears.
"What can you do?" I retorted as I saw the King of Hell's attack approaching me. At that moment, due to the shattering of Xinzhu, the power it had consumed surged into my body along with its own strength.
With this newfound power, I faced the King of Hell's attack without fear or intention to evade. Instead, I raised my fist and struck down toward his outstretched hand.
With a sharp crack, my fist collided with his palm. However, due to our size difference, my punch did little damage and only served to infuriate the King of Hell.
"I never expected it would happen so quickly... Truly beyond my expectations, God King!" he exclaimed as he prepared to close his palm around me in an attempt to seize me.
Seeing the situation, I quickly retracted my arm and raised a foot to kick against the palm of the King of Hell, using the force to leap forward and stand before it. Coldly, I said, "I don't know if I am the God King, but you... I want to kill you..."
"Kill me? What a joke!" The King of Hell laughed heartily. "As the ruler of the Underworld, I am beyond life and death. How could you possibly kill me?! It seems you are not worthy of being the God King, for you cannot harness the intertwined powers of good and evil that come with it!"
Without intending to respond further, I charged straight at its face. In that moment, I seized the opportunity, lifted my leg, and gathered a significant amount of power within it, planning to kick its enormous head off.
However, things did not go as planned. The King of Hell seemed to have anticipated my move. Although it could not retract the hand that was about to grab me in time, it had already raised its other hand and caught me firmly.
"I intended to wait until you broke the Nine Star Mound before you came to me willingly, but I didn't expect you to be so eager... Very well, I'll handle the remaining mounds myself... God King, just obediently become my power... 'Eventually, one day, the human world will become a second Underworld.' Those were your own words; now let me fulfill your prophecy!"
As the King of Hell spoke, I felt its grip tighten around my hand, rendering me completely immobile. It seemed that even if I used the methods from Void Spirit now, I still couldn't contend with the King of Hell.
Thinking this over, I coldly looked at the slightly excited King of Hell before me and said, "You crave power—desperately so. But tell me this: if you possessed the most powerful force in the world and even became the Creator, what then?"
"Good question!" The King of Hell paused its hand that was about to send me into its massive eye and continued. "For thousands of years, I've pondered this very question: what does it mean to have everything? But later on, I realized that I have never truly possessed everything. So isn't the answer to this question only revealed after one has everything?"
At this point, the King of Hell suddenly sensed that I was gathering a tremendous amount of power while it spoke.
"But you won't be able to find out what you seek right now..." With that, I unleashed my power, and a loud explosion erupted beside me.
In an instant, the King of Hell's grip shattered into pieces with blood and flesh flying everywhere while I remained unharmed in mid-air, my hands glowing with Black Light.
"Are you ready to feel what you call the power of the God King?" As I spoke, my body trembled, and the Black Light in my hands rapidly expanded, enveloping me and exuding an intimidating aura.
"You think that just because you possess part of the God King's power now, you can defeat me?! Impossible!" Although shaken by my earlier strike, the King of Hell quickly regained its composure and grew a new hand.
"Do you think that as the King of Hell I only possess this level of strength? Let me show you why I am called the King of Hell!" With that, it took two steps back and roared fiercely.
As the shouting echoed, the two arms of the King of Hell were instantly engulfed in a blaze. Though the flames appeared to be nothing more than ordinary orange fire, they radiated an unbearable heat that I could feel from where I stood.
At that moment, I was still a hundred meters away from the King of Hell's fiery arms, yet my clothes began to catch fire from the intense heat.
Just as I was about to engage in battle with the King of Hell, a commotion erupted in the distance. "Shen Xu! What are you doing?! Where did Xinzhu go?!"
From the sound of it, the speaker was likely the Sun Warrior Leader.
I jolted, unleashing a surge of power that extinguished the flames on my body. Just as I turned to locate the source of the voice, something fell from my tattered, charred clothing due to my sudden movement.
I reached out instinctively to catch it, but my attention was drawn away by the voice, and I missed it as it dropped from mid-air.
Not far away, Yao Long saw something fall from me and rushed forward, grabbing it in his hand. He shouted at me, "Shen Xu, how did you end up like this..." But halfway through his sentence, Yao Long suddenly stopped. Perhaps he sensed something amiss and quickly changed his tone, asking, "Wait, you’re not Shen Xu. Who are you..."
