Life span plundered, I became a detective and achieved immortality

Facing the icy question, Patriarch Tianyuan slowly turned his head. His neck was like a rusty hinge, making a slight "creaking" sound as it turned, forming a strange contrast with the world-shaking pressure of the Demon Lord Chixi.

His slender gray eyebrows trembled in the strong wind. He looked at the giant hand that covered the sky and the sun. The rules of the multiverse flowing in its palm almost tore his soul apart.

But there was no fear on his face, only a kind of calmness after the dust settled, as if he had already put life and death aside.

"No need to say more." His voice was still hoarse, but it was more determined than before. The Chaos Ape was brutal and bloodthirsty. Even if they groveled and begged for mercy, they would be exterminated. It would be better to die a glorious death. "Even though the human race is weak, we still have bones and blood. Kill or cut me up, it is all at your disposal!"

The moment he finished speaking, he suddenly straightened his hunched back, and his white robe fluttered in the wind, like a tattered flag that refused to fall.

A faint but firm spiritual light suddenly burst out from his body. It was the power he gained by burning his own source of the universe and sea. Although the aura of the middle stage of the sixth heaven was not worth mentioning in front of the Red Demon Lord, it carried the solemnity of a martyr, like a candle flickering stubbornly in the wind.

At this time, Xuanfeng Shenzun, Chiyang Xianzun and others in the Human Ancestor Hall also stood up. Although their bodies were shaking like leaves in the wind, they all raised their heads and their necks were straight.

At the same time, the numb human cultivators in various worlds of the Tianyuan Universe seemed to be awakened by this breath. Some slowly raised their hands, digging their nails deeply into their palms; some struggled to stand up, their knees bleeding from rubbing against the gravel - a faint flame was ignited in the dead ashes in their eyes. It was the last backbone of the human race, the spine that refused to bend in desperate situations.

Patriarch Tianyuan looked at the clansmen behind him, with a faint smile on his face, which was filled with relief and sadness.

He looked at the Red Demon Lord again, and his voice was not loud, but it was like a stone thrown into an icy lake, clearly transmitted to every corner of the Tianyuan Universe: "My human race, although a small race, also has self-respect, so make your move!

Upon hearing this, the Red Demon Lord's giant eyes, which were burning with the dark sun, narrowed slightly, and the murderous aura surging in his eyes suddenly solidified for a moment.

He seemed to have not expected that this old human being, who was like an ant in his eyes, would dare to be so tough in such a situation.

The next second...

"Self-respect?" He repeated the word in a low voice, as if chewing on something ridiculous. Then, a deafening roar tore through the void. "In front of me, your self-respect is not even worth dust!"

The giant hand that covered the sky and the sun suddenly clenched, and the multiverse rules flowing in the palm suddenly became violent. The power of the rules that turned into magic dragons bit and collided with each other, erupting with a vast force that was enough to annihilate the countless universes in the medium-sized sea of ​​​​universe.

Boundless demonic energy gushed out from his palm, pouring down like a waterfall. Before it touched the light curtain of the Tianyuan Universe, it had already burned the surrounding void with a sizzling sound, turning it into a distorted chaos.

"Since you refuse to accept my toast, I will grant your wish!" The Red Demon Lord's voice was devoid of warmth, only the madness of crushing everything, as if he were talking about crushing a group of ants.

As he spoke, the demonic hand that covered the sky moved and pressed down heavily towards the Tianyuan Universe below.

The turbulence in the void was completely drained at this moment, and the protective light curtain above the Tianyuan Universe collapsed violently the moment the giant hand fell. Countless cracks spread like spider webs to every inch of the corner, making a crackling sound.

Those human monks who had just ignited a bit of backbone were once again pinned to the ground under this destructive pressure. The "crackling" sound of broken bones was intertwined with the groans of despair, but many people still gritted their teeth tightly, with blood oozing from their gums, and refused to utter a single moan for mercy - even if their bodies were about to collapse, they had to hold on to the last bit of dignity.

Upon seeing this, the Red Demon Lord curled up his lips in a cruel arc, and his giant hand descended even faster - he wanted to watch with his own eyes this universe shatter under his palm, and watch those so-called "guts" and "self-respect", along with these ignorant humans, turn into eternal dust in the sea of ​​​​the universe, leaving no memories behind.

"Boom..."

A loud bang that pierced through the soul exploded, and the Nine Extremes Heavenly Net Formation, which the human race had spent hundreds of cosmic epochs to build, finally let out a final wail and completely collapsed under the crushing of the Red Demon Lord's devilish hand!

Nine dazzling white lights suddenly tore through the chaos and immediately transformed into nine terrifying mushroom clouds that stretched for hundreds of millions of cosmic years, rising simultaneously in nine directions of the Tianyuan Universe.

The mushroom cloud brought with it an all-consuming heat wave and shock wave. Wherever it passed, the world melted like ice and snow, the rules were torn like paper, and even time and space were stirred into a sticky paste, making it impossible to distinguish between the past and the future.

The nine quasi-sixth-rank treasures of the Universe Sea that once supported the entire formation now shattered simultaneously like glass. The fragments were crushed into the finest powder by the violent energy, and not even a trace of the original spiritual light could escape before they were completely annihilated in the chaos.

At this moment, the entire Tianyuan Universe was like a crystal ball hit by a huge hammer, shattered in an instant.

One chaos circle after another was shattered into billions of fragments, and the flowing galaxies were cut in half, turning into shimmering stardust all over the sky, but not even a trace of light could last; those trillions of worlds that depended on the existence of the universe, along with the sleeping ancient beasts, fleeing monks, and crying babies within them, were swallowed up by the surging chaotic airflow and completely destroyed before they could even utter a scream - their existence seemed to be just a short dream, and after waking up, even the traces were wiped out.

"Pfft..."

In the Hall of Human Ancestors, the weakest kings of the First Heaven and the Sea were the first to be hit. They could only hold on for a breath before their souls were completely destroyed, without even a trace of their true spirit left. Even the life-saving tricks they had left in other rivers of the Universe were wiped out at the same time, without any escape. Then came the kings of the Second Heaven, Third Heaven, and Fourth Heaven and the Sea. They fell like ears of wheat swept by a strong wind, falling in droves, without even a trace of resistance.

Even the kings of the five heavens and seas, such as Xing Yan God Lord, Xuan Feng God Lord, and Chi Yang Immortal Lord, could only hold on for a dozen breaths before they were reduced to ashes one after another.

Finally, only Tianyuan Patriarch, a sixth-level mid-stage King of the Universe, was left standing in the center of the storm. His white robe had long been soaked in blood, and the spiritual light he gained from burning his origin flickered under the impact of energy, like a candle in the wind.

He watched the familiar faces around him fall one by one, and watched the universe he had protected for hundreds of cosmic epochs crumble before his eyes. There was no more sadness in his turbid eyes, only a dead calm.

"Has our human race... finally... reached this point..."

He murmured, his voice torn into pieces by the violent airflow, and even he could not hear it clearly, only his lips were still moving unconsciously.

The next second...

"Boom..."

There was another loud bang, and the only human king of the sixth level of the sea of ​​the universe who was in the middle stage of the human race was gone without even a trace of soul or a drop of blood. His soul was completely scattered and annihilated in the endless chaos along with the universe he had protected all his life.

Facing a King of the Universe Sea who is at the eighth level of perfection like the Red Demon Lord, the human race, whose strongest is only a King of the Universe Sea at the middle stage of the sixth level, is nothing but a group of lowly ants. The two are not even on the same level and are not even qualified to make the other side take them seriously.

The Red Demon Lord looked indifferently at the shattered Tianyuan Universe below. His Heaven-shattering Demon Hand moved again, and his five fingers crushed down like five sacred mountains, completely wiping out all the fragments of the Tianyuan Universe. Not even a trace of debris or a breath was left, as if this universe had never existed since its birth.

Then, he slowly withdrew his giant hand, and the cruel arc at the corner of his mouth became more and more obvious, with a kind of satisfaction after a cat playing with mouse.

"A bunch of ants who don't know how to live or die!"

With a cold shout, the Red Demon Lord's voice suddenly resounded throughout the human race's territory, thousands of cosmic rivers, like thunder rolling across the wasteland, with unquestionable murderous intent: "Propagate the ancestor's decree! Flatten the human race's territory, and leave no living creature alive!"
