Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled

Chapter 637 - 633: The Gate of Death Shatters, the Death God Great Monarch Descends

Xia Feng and the women all breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the Death God should no longer have a chance to emerge.

As for the Demon Race and the Resentful Beast, they figured they could find some way to handle them.

With crackling sounds, stones kept falling off the stone gate, crashing to the ground, as the stone gate seemed to be on the verge of completely disintegration, even the blue flames had dwindled significantly.

Yet a pair of skeletal hands suddenly thrust out from the crevices of the stone gate, gripping the sides tightly, seeming intent on opening this shattered gate.

Xia Feng’s heart leaped again, the Great Dao of Life on his body surged wildly, seemingly wanting to deal with this Death God before it emerged completely.

The stone gate seemed aware of its nemesis Dao, uttering a slightly surprised "Hmm?" and the speed at which it pushed the gate slowed down significantly.

Taking the opportunity, Xia Feng charged directly toward the stone gate with the Great Dao of Life, causing a large volume of Great Dao Rules to crash into the gate, accelerating the fall of the shattered stones, making it seem as if it was about to collapse.

The Death God within the stone gate didn’t appear to be affected at all, even emerging at a quicker pace, seemingly worried the collapse of the stone gate might result in space collapsing and burying it within.

Despite the concern in his heart, Xia Feng’s face remained impassive, the Great Dao of Life scorched and expanded like flames, endlessly attacking in the direction of the stone gate.

As Xia Feng intensified his attack, the stone gate could no longer hold and collapsed with a thud, exposing the struggling Death God within.

The women behind couldn’t help but wonder aloud: "Isn’t the stone gate shattered? Hasn’t the space already collapsed? Why is this Death God not dead? Not only did it come out alive, but it also seems unharmed. How is this possible?"

The Death God instinctively looked towards the direction of the women, and Xia Feng, as if facing a great enemy, instantly teleported in front of them, attempting to block its sudden attack.

However, this Death God seemed not to have any intention of attacking right now. Instead, it seemed intrigued as it surveyed its surroundings. The skull turned with a creak, taking in the whole environment before looking back towards Xia Feng.

"Little ones, Death Gods are not a dime a dozen, you may address me as a Death God."

The women were taken aback, not expecting the first thing it said upon emerging would be this.

Then they heard this Death God continue, "The stone gate is indeed shattered. I always thought that little demon wouldn’t be able to sustain such a portal. Even by burning Life, it couldn’t sustain the portal’s opening."

"So, I set it up such that after his destruction and the stone gate’s shattering, the portal would be fully open."

While the expression was unreadable on its skeletal face, everyone could sense it was smiling smugly.

Even Xia Feng felt a little stifled, casting a dubious glance at the skeleton, not expecting such a move.

Yet with it having emerged, surely there would be a chance to deal with this entity.

Thinking of this, Xia Feng’s Great Dao of Life spread wildly, mixed with some Star Power, charging directly toward the Death God, intending to take advantage of its not yet fully adjusted state to the Secret Realm’s world and deal with it swiftly.

But Xia Feng’s high spirits were easily thwarted by a grey halo radiating from the Death God’s body.

He burned more of the Great Dao of Life, only causing the Death God before him to sneeze ever so slightly in discomfort, seemingly unaffected.

The Death God’s distinct hoarse voice sounded again: "Little one, I am unlike those demons and the Nether Race. I am Morris, one of the Thirty-Six Great Monarchs, not someone you could dispatch with such petty tricks."

It touched its smooth skeletal chin, pondering aloud: "It would take someone on the level of the Divine King to pose even a slight threat to me, I reckon."

"Your mere understanding of the Great Dao of Life without knowing how to utilize it... best step aside."

As the words fell, the grey halo around it spread out, expanding several-fold, directly flipping Xia Feng over, causing him to roll several times on the ground.

Then its gaze instinctively fell upon the women: "Such pure souls, yet a pity their bodies are defiled, how unfortunate."

A mass of grey mist spread from its body, splitting into ten tendrils, aiming to bind and take away the women like ropes.

However, the moment the mist dispersed, it was not as formidable as when dealing with Xia Feng, getting shattered by the women individually.

The commotion on Xiao Qingxue’s side was the greatest, with her Life Divine Power even causing Morris’s skull to tremble slightly, appearing very uncomfortable.

"Ugh, what rotten luck, encountering two little ones from the Life Divine Domain one after another."

"How far has the Demon Race’s layout progressed? Are there still many living two-legged sheep here?"

Uncomfortably, it released a large quantity of Death Qi again, attempting once more to bind the women, but by this time Xia Feng had recovered, standing at the forefront, relying solely on Star Power and Life Divine Power to keep the Death Qi at bay.

The instant they came into contact, Xia Feng felt somewhat suffocated and short of breath, the surging Death Qi adhering to his Divine Power like an all-pervasive entity, ceaselessly corroding his Divine Power.

As time passed, Xia Feng felt his body gradually being invaded by the Death Qi, his movements slowing down.

Behind him, Xiao Qingxue placed her fair hand on the center of his back, a stream of pure Power of Life infused into his body, alleviating his discomfort.

Without the time to glance back, Xia Feng focused on maintaining his Life Divine Power, though a trace of pessimism crept into his heart.

This so-called Thirty-Six Great Monarchs clearly surpassed the level of that previous high-level demon by an unfathomable margin. Even when he faced the Divine King before, he hadn’t felt this level of difficulty.

The Celestial Pill Secret Realm’s realm constraints seemed utterly ineffective against this Death God, leaving no impact whatsoever.

Xia Feng’s mind leaped between thoughts, his gaze flickering, already contemplating whether to take the women and leave this place.

Behind him, Xiao Qingxue softly said, "Husband, I want to give it a try."

Xia Feng was taken aback, reflexively turning to look at her, a hint of confusion in his expression. What did she intend to try?

Xiao Qingxue continued, "I have seen mother use the family secret technique to manipulate the Power of Life to resist Death God’s invasion. She has taught me that technique before. Why don’t I give it a try, perhaps there may be some progress."
