Chapter 2: Demon Emperor Falls Along With The Hero

''We're done.'' Demon Emperor said with an eerie voice.

Just as everyone was despairing, a young man's voice was heard.

''No, we are not.''

The handsome young man was brimming with vitality as he stepped forward.

His sword looked ordinary, but it contained a finely controlled sword intent.

His clothes looked ordinary, but they seemed to glimmer with light every now and then.

His eyes looked ordinary, but killing intent inside them was terrifying enough to scare off even the leaders of the myriad races.

Nobody could believe their eyes. They could all feel the cultivation strength of the young man.

Peak of the Dao Realm.

It was incomprehensible for such a young man to carry such power.

''Could he be the heir of a hidden family? Is it even possible to reach such strength without the aid of a sect or family?''

''What a pity, in another era, he would be the hero leading the universe, number one of the heavens, and an unparalleled warrior.''

''Even if he is this powerful, he is still a major realm below the Demon Emperor, not to mention defeating the Demon Emperor would take much more than just cultivation.''

''Even the Empresses are at the same realm as him, but they're far from his strength.''

''Leaders of our races are Dao level beings as well, if just that was enough this Demon wouldn't a problem to anyone.''

Young man didn't mind their words and got to action. With a single step, he appeared next to the Demon Emperor.

Demon Emperor felt danger for the first time since he was resurrected and he used his hands to defend himself on instinct.

Before anyone could understand what was going on, Demon Emperor's hands were gone.

Even the famed Ice Empress's eyes were slightly more open due to shock.

''Wha?!'' Demon Emperor's raspy voice rang out as he looked at his empty arms with wide eyes.

His everlasting smirk turned into a vicious snarl and not even a second after losing his hands, his eyes shot out dark rays that seemed to suck in the light of the universe.

Young man dodged but they followed, only for him to cut them to nothingness with his sword.

He stopped in his tracks and got into a profound sword stance.

A chill ran down the Demon Emperor's spine.

'That killing move has the power to kill me, but it has obvious flaws!'

''Stopping in the middle of the battle? Truly, youngsters these days don't have an ounce of wisdom!''

'I can just kill you before you finish your secret art.'

But before he could make a move, he felt his body slow down.

'What?'

He felt the source of his obstruction and looked up with an incredulous face.

''You couldn't even touch my hair just minutes ago, how!?''

The obstruction wasn't much for him, he could get out of it in seconds, but in their realms of power, seconds meant life and death.

Ice Empress didn't answer but her face looked to be even paler than how it was just a few minutes ago.

Demon Emperor couldn't understand it, but people from the myriad races could as they saw what hovered behind the Empress, just out of the Demon Emperor's line of sight.

''Her Divine weapon, Peerless Mirror cracked! She sacrificed so much just to stop him from killing the young man!''

''Even the Empress believes he has a chance, we have to believe too.''

Demon Emperor looked at the young man who seemed to be in a trance and instantly made a decision.

'It's too late to attack properly now, I have to dodge!'

With the last bit of his effort, he broke out of the icy binding of the Ice Empress but found himself unable to move again.

His eyes hovered to see the Space Empress smirking at him without any mercy.

''DO YOU THINK I WILL GO DOWN SO EASILY!?''

Understanding his fate, he unleashed the strongest curse he could create by mixing both of his high-level laws.

Just as he finished his final move, a ray of brilliant light shot out of the young man's sword.

Two attacks didn't collide but brushed past each other.

Sword light reached the Demon Emperor and cut through his body as if cutting through the air. Demon Emperor's vicious face crumbled apart as his body as well as his soul turned to ash.

Right at that moment, the curse hit the handsome young man. His clean face slowly turned ashen, his strong hands lost all their flesh, and his eyes lost their light.

Not a second later, his body perished as well.

A silence took place as everyone took in what just happened.

A young man who couldn't be older than 20 years old defeated the Demon Emperor even the Ancient masters eras ago could only seal away.

The Demon Emperor who effortlessly took down 2 of the Empresses and made it look easy was gone in a single move.

One of the masters from the Myriad Races Alliance turned toward his friend.

''What you said was right, if he was allowed to grow any further, he could have been the greatest under the Heavens, but he will be known as the great hero who saved the universe.

''We don't even know his na-''

Their discussion was cut short as a strange phenomenon took place in the space that mysterious young hero died.

A strange rectangle rose up and inside it lit up.

''This... isn't this remote spiritual viewing?'' a young master asked with wonder.

People could record scenes with special runes and show them to others with the remote spiritual viewing technique, but it seemed like something was off.

''Similar, but not the same.'' his elder answered.

Soon, it became clear why.

''This is the Heavenly Merit Acquisition!''

''That's impossible! It only happened once in the past and it was from the Great Emperor who had mastered 5 laws to the Ninth Level.''

''Heavenly Merit Acquisition isn't about your strength, it's about the merits of your past 100 lives. This means that young man lived as a hero in the past 100 reincarnations!'' an Ancient voice came out of nowhere.

Myriad races looked up to see an old man that looked as pitiful as the Demon Emperor, but nobody dared to mock him.

''Greetings Elder Mo Jang!''

Leader of the Golder Dragon Race bowed down to the old man with deep respect.

As they greeted each other, other people murmured between each other.

''Who is that guy?'' a young man with a handsome face asked his elder.

''That's Elder Mo Jang. He is the oldest known being, there are even records of him in the ancient records. Nobody knows how can he live for so long and many people coveted his secrets in the past, but no matter their strength, they all somehow fell down with misfortune before even they could properly attack the Elder.''

The young man took in a deep breath in mixed emotions filled with respect and fear.

''This young hero saved many lives today, least we can do as a sign of respect to him is watching his past as the Heaven intends for us to do.'' Elder Mo spoke once again.

''That's right, he saved us all, the least we can do is respect his past and record it to immortalize his deeds!''

''I agree!''

Many people agreed and got ready for the show.
