Chapter 4
Time flowed ... as for the noise in the surrounding, it was getting reduced as time flowed.
About ten minutes later......
The surrounding earth was scorched and only four baked and burned figures were present in the scorched ground.
The rest of them were burned to ashes.
Only Ghost emperor, Fiend god emperor and two others survived.
Ghost emperor and fiend god emperor were critically injured and would not be able to recover for about a few million years from the injuries caused by the legendary uncontrollable flame which only appeared in the ancient era.
But the other two cultivators were completely crippled and would not be able to cultivate again as their dantian and godhead were completely destroyed whereas their soul was injured preventing them from cultivating any soul cultivation techniques also.
Basically, they were crippled in energy, physique and soul completely.
There are no methods to make them recover. They have to live the rest of their lives as mortals.
The Primordial Chaos Heaven destroying flame has vanished completely... Not even a speck of flame was present in the surroundings or within the Martial emperor's body.
He could not keep or control it, so he used it completely to kill everyone.
But as a result, his dantian was destroyed, godhead cracked and thus becoming a cripple. He was physically exhausted as he sat down.
He was using his soul energy to maintain himself.
He was using a particular glowing Heavenly rune as a barrier around his godhead and soul to prevent the leakage of his energy.
But he can sustain only for a short period of time.
He obtained this Heavenly Rune after destroying the Heaven's sentient will but he could not understand or decipher it.
The Ghost Emperor and Fiend Emperor jolted a little when they looked at the critically injured Martial God emperor lying on the ground, but they chose not to attack.
This was because they saw his disciples approaching them and they did not have the strength to deal with them. Instead, they would be killed.
Thus they used their remaining strength to float and fly away.
"Old farts," Martial emperor muttered, "my apologies, but I cannot bring you both for the Hell tour today…"
The two flying figures trembled for a moment and continued flying away to reach as far as possible disappearing to the horizon.
His disciples wanted to pursue them but he stopped them.
Oliver made a fire slash with his sword and the fire wave reached the two immobile crippled cultivators burning them into ashes.
George sat near his master who was lying facing up on the ground and placed his master's head on his thigh as a pillow to make his master feel better.
His fainted disciples were made to wake up. He looked at his disciples who were shedding tears and tears brimmed in his eyes.
He was astonished to see Amelia cry. The only thing he has ever seen on her face other than iciness was the smile but now he saw her crying.
He held her hands tightly.
He uttered " You all should leave the Immortal plane and accept other identities. My other enemies would soon be coming to take revenge against you all."
" So you all should never be together and go separate ways but still be supporting each other in secret. No direct contact towards each other and above all live happily."
Pufff.....
He vomited blood... It was due to his internal injuries.
"Master"
He smiled but then sighed.
" I never thought he would betray me. I really cared about him."
Tony who was honest uttered while sobbing " Master, you would not have to feel lonely. Soon, I will kill the seventh brother and sent him to hell to entertain you. You can make him miserable in hell too."
Killing intent flashed in the eyes of other disciples but none of them other than Tony mentioned anything but it is clear that they have planned to kill their seventh brother Jacob who betrayed them in their minds.
"No.... I would not allow it" He replied.
Upon hearing these, his disciples kept their heads down thinking how kind their master is, even forgiving the betrayal but the following words from their master blew up their minds.
"How can I allow you all to kill him..... I should be the one to kill him."
"Hahhhaaaahaa..... Did you think I will forgive him? Never... I hate those who betray me....." a sneer appeared on his face.
The dazzling eyes of a true slaughterer, the sneering face and expression made his disciples shocked.
They felt as if they are looking at a different person... a devil... a true slaughter god!!!!
" You set the bar and I raise it... If you show kindness to me, I will reciprocate by showing kindness and care by hundred times but if you ever hurt me, I shall torture you and make you suffer the most cruelest pain by hundred times."
Mary looked at her Master and asked "You appear different, Master. Your aura has changed."
He replied " I took you all under my wings after I reached the peak of cultivation. Not a single person in the Universe knows my true identity. I had an identity that no one else knows and it is my biggest secret."
" I was called Demon killer...."
As soon as they heard this, his disciples were shocked and were trembling uncontrollably.
They shouted at the same time.
" What!!!!!!"
" How can it be? How is this possible? How can you be that killer god who killed millions of people ?"
Upon hearing his disciple's words, he smiled and said " That is me. I kill all those who hurt me. If million people hurt me, I will kill them all. I am Demon killer and I am Supreme Martial God".
He then sighed " I decided to leave my past, made people believe about my death and then started a new life of Martial Emperor with kindness as my motto."
Amelia wanted to say something but then hesitated and stopped herself from saying it.
He knew what she wanted to say and thus replied " I know you want to say that after such critical soul injury, I will not be able to reincarnate and so would not be able to take revenge."
" It was true in normal cases and would be impossible to reincarnate but the present situation is a little bit different. After destroying the Heaven's will, I found a way to change my fate a little bit and provide myself with a small chance of reincarnation."
He raised his head and looked at the sky contemplating something.
The thing which could change his fate and give a chance of survival was the Heavenly rune rotating around his soul and Godhead.
After a period of time, he said "I would have to reincarnate many times and would be able to return back only after few millions of years later."
" I would be placing a seal on my soul to prevent karma affecting my reincarnations. I would recover my memories after reaching a certain cultivation stage in a certain reincarnation life."
His disciples were happy to hear this. They all hugged him which made him feel happy from the bottom of his heart.
He then asked them to leave and follow his plans.
They nodded, hugged him once again and flew away. But there was one person who still stayed.
Amelia looked at him passionately and said " You could not love me because you felt I was too young and should not be with an old person like you. But after you reincarnate and return after millions of years later, I would be too old."
" So would you still love me after millions of years?? Please do remember that I will always love you and would be waiting for you to accept my love".
She moved closer, kissed him on his lips and flew away without waiting for any reply as if the reply might hurt her feelings again.
He touched his lips looking in the direction she left with complex emotions in his eyes " I love you too".
Then he started making hand signs and a seal was formed with his soul power.
He took out some of his treasures and informed the treasure spirits to wait for his reincarnation to return and find them and then raised his hand to slash the space in front of him to create a space crack.
He used some of the radiating Heavenly rune power to link the space crack with a powerful lower world and moved the seal and those treasures towards that world through the crack.
The treasures moved to different parts of the lower world so as to wait for the mighty return of their master.
At the same time, as the seal came in contact with the space of the lower world, the entire lower world was covered by that seal thus separating this particular lower world from other lower worlds.
" Time to give up ...my life"
Sigh....
As he mentioned that, he blasted his body into many pieces and scattered his body pieces to different worlds but at the same time made sure some of the pieces travelled to the sealed lower world.
The Martial Emperor's soul looked around him once again and created another seal for his soul with the Heavenly rune placed within his soul and finally only a glowing spark remained which moved through the space crack towards that lower world and vanished from the Immortal world leaving only a huge, ugly city ruin.
The space cracks slowly mended.
Slowly the Immortal world returned to its calm and quiet state, still as dark as before.
The legend of the legendary god, the invincible Supreme Martial God Emperor had come to an end.
But the cycle of Reincarnation, Samsara and Karma slowly pulled open the curtains of a new beginning…
