# Chapter 2816: Look Up at Me! Bastard!

Jiangnan directly raised his hand and pressed forward, no longer the glazed-colored giant hand of the World-Destroying Grasp!
Instead, it was a golden giant hand formed entirely from the Force of Will!
"God's Hand • Life and Death!"
The golden giant hand pushed forward without mercy, blocking the surging ember waves before it!
He thought it could block the black ember shadows!
But a horrifying scene occurred—the ember shadows directly pierced through God's Hand!
The ember waves surged through the gaps between fingers, and the golden giant hand was instantly engulfed and obliterated by the endless black embers!
The moment they clashed, Jiangnan felt endless hatred and malice from the ember shadows!
Malice toward everything!
It even stirred up the killing intent and rage within Jiangnan's heart!
Jiangnan gritted his teeth, raised his arms, and crossed them in front of his chest!
As expected, he was right!
These ember shadows were also aggregates of will, were they not? Will from the old days!
They even extinguished his God's Hand!
Just how astonishing was this hatred and malice?
How long had it been since the Great Reclamation Era? These old-time wills still hadn't dissipated—that said it all!
Unlike the lingering images of those predecessors in the Eternal Blazing Wind, these old-time wills contained only hatred and malice!
"Boom!"
The Sea of Embers instantly engulfed Jiangnan's golden god-shadow, frantically scouring it!
Even the Starry Sky Dominion was eroded to the point of collapse, vanishing without a trace!
Even the golden will-shadow was being madly worn away, as if it might shatter at any moment!
Vivian said anxiously: (งᵒ̌﹏.ᵒ̌)ง "Can you still hold on? Do you want to—"
Jiangnan sneered: "This is nothing! Don't underestimate me!"
"Boom!"
The golden god-shadow, which had nearly collapsed, suddenly transformed into a dreamlike multicolored form, its body swelling!
The Unbreakable Sacred Armor manifested on his body, withstanding the Sea of Embers' scouring!
At the same time, ten multicolored glazed banners flew out, piercing the void and forming a circular formation!
To suppress the chaotic void, the Starry Sky Dominion rose again!
Turning the space where he stood into a pure land!
The other Star Devourers didn't seem to be scoured as violently—only Jiangnan's location became the center of chaos!
And Jiangnan didn't know how the other Star Devourers were faring!
Just then, Jiangnan's heart echoed with a murmuring sound, persistent and unending!
But he couldn't make out the content at all—everything around was just black embers!
Just as Jiangnan was about to speak, suddenly all the noisy murmurs disappeared, and the vague whisper returned to his ears!
"You…?"
Jiangnan: ???
(งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง⁼³₌₃ "Damn it! Once is enough, isn't it? Getting addicted? You think I can't do anything about you, huh?"
Sure enough, it was the work of those old-time wills from the ancient soil!
The Will Blade extended from his hand. His eyes bulging, he slashed fiercely at the Sea of Embers!
\=͟͟͞͞=͟͟͞͞=͟͟͞͞=͟͟͞͞=͟͟͞͞]=¤٩(ꐦ°᷄д°᷅)☛ "Motherf*cker! Motherf*cker! Motherf*cker? Want to curse again? Curse again?"
"Curse me behind my back—what kind of hero is that? If you've got guts, come out and have a verbal duel face to face! I'll let you have three rounds! If I don't tear you a new one, I'm your daddy!"
Jiangnan went berserk. Even a good-natured person would get angry after being cursed at sneakily twice!
Jiang Fan squinted his eyes, two veins bulging on his forehead!
"You ingrates who never learn—you picked the wrong person!"
As he spoke, he held the Starlight Sword, with ten thousand stars above his head, turning into a brilliant meteor. He broke away from Jiangnan's god-shadow and charged straight into the deepest part of the Sea of Embers!
The moment he rushed in, Jiang Fan's figure completely disappeared!
But Jiang Fan's voice echoed back from the void!
"Main Domain Third Stage Expansion • All Worlds!"
"Annihilate this realm!"
"Die!"
Instantly, the Sea of Embers churned violently, the black embers surging endlessly!
Obviously, Jiang Fan had started fighting over there!
On Jiangnan's side, although the murmurs had stopped, the vague whisper in his ear returned!
"Can you…?"
Jiangnan: ???
(ง☄益☄)ง "Oh, I f*cking swear! Provocation? You're provoking me? You really don't know how sharp my tongue is, do you?"
"Come on! Come out if you've got the balls! I'll chop you to pieces, you son of a b*tch!"
Jiangnan also went berserk, wildly slashing through the Sea of Embers with his Will Blade!
His commotion was no less than Jiang Fan's!
Occasionally, one or two screams from other Star Devourers could be heard, probably unlucky enough to get hit by Jiangnan and Jiang Fan's wild slashing…
Yang Jian covered his face. With these two living ancestors losing their temper, this wouldn't end well!

The Final Burial Ground was now like an absolutely dark chaotic room, no one could see anyone else, all blind as moles!
Everyone was desperately defending themselves, trying not to be harmed by those ember shadows. But honestly, the ember shadows hadn't actually hurt anyone much!
Most injuries were accidental…
Deep within the Sea of Embers, Jiang Fan controlled the Celestial Movement Colossus, starlight surging around him, radiating the light of worlds, his eyes sharp as he looked in all directions!
"Heh—don't regret it!"
"Main Domain Fourth Stage Expansion—"
Before he could finish, a strange fluctuation emanated from the Sea of Embers!
Jiang Fan's eyes went blank, and his body remained frozen in its original posture, stiff and unmoving…
The world fell into absolute darkness!

When Jiang Fan awoke again, he was still in a pitch-black space, with drifting embers all around!
Looking down at his hands, he found he was no longer in his physical body, but a pure white will-body!
Completely out of place with the surrounding blackness!
This wasn't real space either, but an ethereal consciousness space. Only Jiang Fan's consciousness had been pulled here!
Jiang Fan showed no sign of panic on his face, but looked around calmly, a coldness in his eyes!
"I warned you! Don't mess with me! It seems you didn't listen…"
From the darkness, endless embers gathered, forming ember shadows in front of Jiang Fan!
One, two, three…
More and more, countless, stretching to the horizon!
These shadows all had blurry features, blood-red eyes, filled with nothing but hatred and malice!
Nothing else!
Among the ember shadows, a few figures stood out. Their auras were stronger, standing before the others like leaders!
The ember shadows did not answer Jiang Fan's question, but looked up and asked:
"Do you… hate this world?"
Jiang Fan said impatiently: "What business is that of yours? If you absolutely must get an answer from me…"
"I can tell you…"
"Do I hate this world? Hah—I don't really feel anything. It's a meaningless question to me…"
"Rather, do you dare to speak your name?"
The ember shadow said coldly: "A name? If you want to know… fine!"
"We are all the departed. Your abilities are useless against us…"
"My name… Night King!"
The few shadows beside him also spoke…
"Cangzhou…"
"Xingyan!"

Jiang Fan squinted: "Pulling my consciousness here—what for? I don't want to waste my time on meaningless things!"
Night King said coldly: "We have chosen you. If whether you hate this world is meaningless to you… then go ahead and hate it!"
"We will crown you king, help you bring chaos and destruction to every corner of this world, and end the world!"
"You will become the absolute truth, the one and only, in the disorder of chaos!"
Jiang Fan laughed instead. He sneered:
"Hah—laughable! When I, Jiang Fan, reach the pinnacle, why would I need help from others? Do you even deserve it?"
"And why should I listen to you? Don't force your will upon me! For all things, I, Jiang Fan, will make my own judgments. Everything I do follows only my heart!"
"End the world? I can't think of any reason to do that!"
Night King said coldly: "I sense no emotional fluctuations in you. No goals, no dreams, nothing at all!"
"That's why your will-body is pure white, like a blank sheet of paper never written on. You're like someone lost in the fog—any path leading to any destination can become the path beneath your feet!"
"Now there's a path before you. Won't you take it? To you, any path is the same, isn't it?"
Jiang Fan's eyes flashed with coldness:
"True… what you say is fact. But I really don't like the way you speak!"
"I, Jiang Fan, can indeed take any path and still reach the supreme peak! But…"
"Which path to take! How to walk it! That is for me, Jiang Fan, to decide!"
"What the hell are you? Why would I need you to point the way?"
Night King squinted: "All the world is black, only you are white. Don't you think that's conspicuous?"
"Become one of us, and you will be crowned king!"
As he spoke, the ember shadows slowly pressed forward, the endless shadows seemingly about to devour that single white!
To dye it completely black!
Countless ember claws reached for Jiang Fan's will-body!
But Jiang Fan's will-body vanished instantly, reappearing before Night King!
He raised his fist and slammed it heavily into Night King's face!
Smashing Night King's ember shadow hard into the ground, his face caved in!
At this moment, Jiang Fan's eyes were filled with ferocity!
"I've long been sick of you! Don't talk to me in that condescending tone!"
"Lie on the ground and look up at me! Bastard!"
"Right now, I just want to beat you up! But you're right about one thing—I will become your king!"
"Just… in my own way!"
At this moment, Jiang Fan's starlight blazed fiercely!
Countless ember shadows charged madly toward Jiang Fan, like starving wolves fighting over food, completely engulfing that touch of white…
