Open up and break into another world

“You…”

Bamboo Sage finally completely erupted in anger: “You forced me! You forced me!! Since that's the case, then let's die together!! Let the entire Endless Continent be buried with us!! Hahahaha…”

Bamboo Sage's bamboo branches covered the sky and earth, heading towards True God Erke. The bamboo branches, large and small, dense and numerous, were like a giant cage, trapping Erke inside.

“Let's die together!!” Bamboo Sage's aura was ferocious—it refused to believe that its terrifying body, exceeding a million miles in height, self-detonating, wouldn't be able to kill Erke!

Not only would it kill Erke, but it would also shatter the entire Endless Continent! Let the billions of living beings on the Endless Continent be buried with Bamboo Sage!

“No!!” Xu Ming revealed a look of horror—the consequences of such a massive Bamboo Sage self-detonating were truly unimaginable!

“Explode!!!”

“Explode!!!”

Bamboo Sage roared madly.

However…

Apart from roaring, it seemed like there wasn't any movement at all…

There wasn't the slightest sign of self-detonation.

“What's going on?” Xu Ming was stunned, “Could it be that Bamboo Sage cherishes life and fears death, and doesn't dare to self-detonate?—But, even if it doesn't self-detonate, it will still be killed by Erke!”

“Hahahaha…” At this moment, True God Erke's loud laughter came from within the giant cage formed by the entangled bamboo branches, “Go ahead and explode! Hahahaha…”

“You…” Bamboo Sage was both shocked and terrified, “What did you do to me?”

“I just used a little trick to seal your self-detonation!” Erke laughed and said, “You want to self-detonate in front of me? Hahahaha…”

Bamboo Sage was only terrifyingly large; in terms of strength, it wasn't necessarily that strong—facing True God Erke, it had no power to resist at all, and couldn't even self-detonate!

“Now, you can quietly await your death!”

Erke's body erupted with endless divine power, frantically bombarding Bamboo Sage. Each strike would annihilate countless bamboo branches.

And all of Bamboo Sage's attack methods, when they landed on Erke's body, couldn't cause the slightest harm to Erke.

Bamboo Sage could only watch helplessly as it walked towards death step by step.

“Xu Ming!!” In desperation, Bamboo Sage couldn't help but roar, “Why aren't you attacking and dealing with him with me!!”

Join forces with Bamboo Sage?

Xu Ming secretly shook his head—he was very clear that even if they joined forces, it was impossible to hurt Erke! Therefore, such a joint effort was meaningless and might even anger Erke, causing him to attack the Human race.

“Xu Ming! You coward!!” Seeing that Xu Ming only knew how to watch from the sidelines but was unwilling to attack, Bamboo Sage's voice became even more shrill, “After I die, do you think Erke will let you off? Let your Human race off?—Hurry up and join forces with me, and maybe there's a glimmer of hope to defeat Erke!”

A coward?

Of course, Xu Ming wasn't!

Whoosh—

Black phantoms suddenly rose from Erke's eyes; the phantoms were sometimes like venomous snakes, sometimes like giant pengs, sometimes like black tortoises…

“Eyes of Annihilation!!”

The ever-changing phantoms suddenly shot out, hitting the Bamboo Sage's main trunk squarely—it was the soul attack secret technique “Eyes of Annihilation”.

“Roar—”

Bamboo Sage suddenly let out an incomparably sharp and painful roar, and the billions of bamboo branches were even more like they were convulsing, trembling frantically.

Clearly, Bamboo Sage was enduring immense pain under this soul attack!

Suddenly!

Bamboo Sage abruptly stopped trembling, and the billions of bamboo branches all drooped down weakly; even the main trunk, which was over a million miles high, suddenly lost its vitality.

Bamboo Sage…

Dead!!

“What a powerful soul attack!” Xu Ming was shocked.

Although Bamboo Sage's body was incomparably large, it didn't mean that its soul was strong. Under Erke's full-force “Eyes of Annihilation,” Bamboo Sage couldn't even last long before its soul was completely annihilated.

“Too weak…” True God Erke stood proudly in the void, sneering disdainfully.

Then, he looked at Xu Ming: “Xu Ming, don't forget, there are still three years left until our ten-year agreement!—Three years later, I want to see the 'Teleportation' secret; otherwise, although I can't kill you, I will definitely destroy your Human race!”

“Hmph!” Xu Ming only snorted, “Don't worry!”

“Hahahaha…” True God Erke laughed wildly and soared into the sky, leaving this place.

“Only three years left…” Xu Ming stood alone in front of Bamboo Sage's remains, feeling immense pressure.

Three years later, he must kill Erke! Otherwise, disaster would befall the Human race!

“Zhang Hao has already created super-large hydrogen bombs, but I still need him to make a few more!” Xu Ming thought to himself, “I wonder… whether a hydrogen bomb with a range covering a hundred territories can kill Erke…”

Whether it can kill him or not, you have to try bombing him to know!

“Rest in peace, Bamboo Sage…” Xu Ming took one last look at Bamboo Sage and prepared to turn and leave.

Bamboo Sage could be considered a legend on the Endless Continent!—In an era without Gods, Bamboo Sage was an invincible existence!

It's a pity… Once the Gods appeared, Bamboo Sage, who had difficulty even moving, couldn't even escape or hide; it could only honestly stay in place, waiting for the arrival of death.

Seeing Bamboo Sage die, Xu Ming's only feeling was—a rabbit mourning the death of a fox.

Weren't those ordinary members of the Human race the same as Bamboo Sage, unable to escape or hide?—After all, the Nine Brilliance Divine Kingdom and Xu Ming's independent space were only so large; they could only accommodate a small number of people from the three thousand six hundred territories.

“Let's go!”

Just as Xu Ming was about to leave, an unexpected change occurred.

On Bamboo Sage's remains, which were over a million miles high, flames began to rise; then, Bamboo Sage seemed to be ignited, and its entire body began to burn.

“Hmm?” Xu Ming was stunned, “What's the situation? Could it be… that Bamboo Sage is going to explode?”

Xu Ming wasn't afraid of Bamboo Sage exploding; after all, he could enter “Absolute Stealth” at any time, immune to all damage.

However, with a giant body over a million miles high exploding, Xu Ming was really worried that it would shatter the Endless Continent!

Fortunately, the situation that Xu Ming was worried about didn't happen.

Bamboo Sage was only burning, but there was no sign of it exploding.

Under the continuous burning, the giant bamboo, which was over a million miles high, was constantly annihilated into pure energy, gathering towards the location of the “Bamboo Heart”.

“What's going on?” Xu Ming couldn't help but watch in surprise.

Soon, Bamboo Sage's huge remains were completely burned to ashes; leaving only a verdant bamboo pole that was only an inch thick.
