He answered in a very serious manner.

"you!"

Honglian glared angrily, her eyes wide, and gritted her teeth as she cursed:

"Blockhead!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Seeing the two bickering as usual, Qi Xing couldn't help but burst into laughter. Lei Ze, Fen Tian, Yan Sui, and Bo Ning also couldn't help but chuckle, their laughter echoing across the ruins. It was as if they had returned to the time in the Eighth World, sitting around the campfire and teasing each other.

A hundred meters away, Mr. Duan hovered in mid-air, coldly watching this scene. A complex emotion flashed in his eyes as he observed the smiles and the tension on their faces.

Back then, they surrounded him, laughing and chatting. Now, these very blades he had nurtured with his own hands were standing on the opposite side, blocking his way for the sake of the Heavenly Dao System.

The hint of nostalgia in his eyes was instantly replaced by coldness.

"Slap! Slap!"

He slowly raised his hands and clapped them. The crisp clapping carried an irresistible power of law, instantly drowning out the laughter and interrupting the conversation.

Mingze and the others stopped laughing abruptly and looked over warily.

Mr. Duan's lips curled into a cold smile.

"Gentlemen."

Mr. Duan's voice was devoid of any warmth.

"When I create a new world, I will resurrect you."

He slightly raised his chin.

"You don't need to worry about that."

Mr. Duan slowly raised his black cane, the tip pointing directly at the seven people in front of him. Black high-dimensional laws converged behind him, forming an abyss that devoured everything.

"And what you need to do now is to help me ascend the final throne."

Qi Xing took a deep breath and clasped his hands together in front of his chest.

"Divine Resurrection, Spring Returns to All Things!"

With a loud shout, a ring of emerald green light rapidly spread outwards from him.

Green energy instantly enveloped everyone present.

Raize's broken arm bones, nourished by the green light, made a series of cracking sounds and were instantly restored to their original state.

Honglian's deep, bone-revealing wounds healed rapidly, leaving no scars. Fentian, Yansui, and Boning's pale complexions also regained their rosy hue.

Even Mingze, who had forcibly reversed time more than 1,500 times to save people, causing his vital energy to be overdrawn, had his complexion improve rapidly.

The previously dim silver light of the laws of time surrounding him shone brightly once more. His depleted primal power was replenished under this divine healing.

"Gentlemen! Let's fight one more time!"

Qi Xing's eyes were bloodshot as he looked up to the sky and shouted.

He frantically formed hand seals in the air, unleashing a torrent of magical power from his body.

"Aurora Shield!"

"Heart of Fury!"

"A Celebration of Life!"

"As solid as a rock!"

"Swift as the Wind!"

In an instant, everyone's body was flashing with various colors of light.

Golden resistance, crimson damage increase, emerald green healing, dark yellow defense, cyan speed...

Layer upon layer, a dense array of buff halos instantly covered everyone.

The air was thick with magical energy. The full power of the SSS-level support not only healed everyone's fatal injuries in a short time, but also greatly enhanced their overall strength under the buff.

"kill!"

Lei Ze roared, and the purple lightning around him grew several times thicker than before.

"Duan! Prepare to die!" Honglian reassembled her crimson armor, which emitted a strong bloody smell under the damage-enhancing effect.

In an instant, the seven SSS-level professionals unleashed their overwhelming momentum. They disregarded their own lives, gathering all their strength to charge towards Mr. Duan in mid-air.

Faced with this desperate charge, Mr. Duan abandoned his previous leisurely demeanor.

"Since you are determined to die, then I will grant your wish."

Mr. Duan no longer held back, and his black cane slammed heavily in mid-air.

Rumble—

High-dimensional elemental skills, such as black destructive lightning, dark blue flames, and silver storms, erupted from behind him.

The sky was torn apart, and the laws of the seven powerful beings clashed with Mr. Duan's destructive elements on this ruin.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The explosions continued unabated, shockwaves ripped away layers of the earth, and turbulent void currents raged across the battlefield.

However, the power of those who transcend worldly boundaries ultimately surpasses the laws of the mortal realm. Even with Mingze's addition and Qi Xing's full buffs, they still cannot directly confront Mr. Duan.

Mr. Duan's high-dimensional elemental skills continuously tore through their combined defenses. Soon, Honglian and Fentian, who were at the forefront, could no longer withstand the onslaught.

Crimson Lotus's armor was shattered by the black lightning, and she spat out a mouthful of blood as her body flew backward. The Nine Netherworld Meteor Flame that blazed across the sky was also engulfed by the azure flames, the backlash causing him to cough up blood repeatedly.

"Don't be afraid! I'm here!"

Qi Xing, standing behind, stared intently at the battlefield, his hands waving wildly.

"Holy Light Heals!"

"A torrent of life!"

Qi Xing's healing spell was incredibly fast. The green beam of light landed precisely on Hong Lian and Fen Tian, rapidly healing their fatal injuries and reconstructing their broken bones.

As soon as they recovered, the two rushed forward again, holding off Mr. Duan's offensive with all their might.

But the situation remained dangerous. Mr. Duan's attacks were too powerful; every time Honglian and Fentian rushed in, they were instantly severely injured. They were constantly teetering on the brink of death, and if it weren't for Qi Xing's healing, they would have already succumbed.

In the center of the battlefield, energy rages.

Mr. Duan frowned slightly, ignoring the attacking Honglian and Fentian, and looked directly at Mingze in the center of the crowd.

"Mingze".

Mr. Duan's voice pierced through the sound of the explosion and reached Mingze's ears.

What are you waiting for?

Mr. Duan casually swung his spatial rift blade to force Lei Ze back, and spoke coldly.

"You should understand that everything you are doing now is in vain."

"No matter how many times this support can save you, your strength is constantly waning."

"It's all useless."

A hint of confusion and indifference flashed in Mr. Duan's eyes.

"Why do you still oppose me like this?"

He looked around at the sealed-off Eighth World ruins, a mocking smile playing on his lips.

"This world of ruins was completely sealed off by me long ago using the laws of higher dimensions."

"Even the Heavenly Dao cannot enter."

"On this absolutely deserted island, who can truly help you?"

When questioned, Mingze remained silent.

He gritted his teeth, his hands maintaining the operation of the time law, trying to find a weakness in Mr. Duan's airtight attack.

He couldn't afford to be distracted; he had no choice but to grit his teeth and fight to the death.

Seeing Mingze's stubbornness, Mr. Duan finally lost his patience.

"Since you want to stall, I'll deal with your supplies first."

Mr. Duan's gaze instantly locked onto Qi Xing, who was releasing healing abilities behind him.

His eyes turned cold, and he suddenly reached out.

There was no flashy skill unleashed; he simply extended his right hand forward, yet this casual grab contained the laws of space.

Pfft!

Mr. Duan's right hand traversed a spatial distance of hundreds of meters, ignoring the layers of defense on Qi Xing's body, and protruded directly from Qi Xing's chest.

Blood instantly stained Qi Xing's robe.

A hand wearing a white glove, stained with blood, suddenly pierced his heart.
