Chapter 2972 - 2972: It's Time to Rest

The Heavenly Sect was somewhat puzzled; the First God's words were ambiguous. What on earth did he mean?

Why mention the Heaven Slayer and the Human Clan at this time?

And even claim that the Heavenly Venerable will ultimately obtain the Source of Heaven and Earth and achieve final victory?

After a moment of silence, a thought struck the Heavenly Sect, and he vaguely understood the First God's meaning.

He was planning to let him survive, to take advantage of the Source of Heaven and Earth, and then find a way to resurrect them?

The Heavenly Sect suddenly looked at the First God, just about to speak.

At this moment, the First God gave him a glance and sighed softly, "Child, let me have a good look at you."

"In this life, not being able to spend more time with you is my greatest failure as a father."

"However, being able to watch you live on is truly wonderful!"

Having said this, the First God slowly closed his eyes and murmured, "Fighting for millions of years, I'm tired."

"It's time to rest!"

"Child, don't disappoint me!"

The Heavenly Sect's eyes welled up with tears, and he knelt before the First God, sobbing uncontrollably.

Although he understood the First God's meaning, his heart was still heavy.

Because the First God placed all his hopes on him, but the problem was, he didn't know if he could do it!

If he failed, wouldn't the First God have died in vain?

Furthermore, whether the Source of Heaven and Earth could resurrect them is still uncertain.

If the Source of Heaven and Earth cannot resurrect them, what meaning is there even if the Heavenly Sect obtains it?

This is an extremely low probability, to put it bluntly, the First God still wanted to give him a reason to live!

The deadline given by the Heaven-devouring Rat was drawing near, and on the last day, the Heavenly Sect finally made his move.

He first knelt heavily and kowtowed three times to the First God, his voice trembling, "Father, I am sorry!"

The First God did not open his eyes, he just nodded slightly, a smile crossing his face, as if he was finally relieved.

The Heavenly Sect knew that if he did not make a move, the First God would never find release.

This father, his last wish, was to watch him live on.

As for whether he could be resurrected, he never thought about these things, nor did he consider them.

Now that the Heavenly Sect decided to live on, he no longer had any attachments.

Even if he could never be resurrected, he had no regrets!

Though he was very reluctant, the Heavenly Sect ultimately made his move, extinguishing the First God's life bit by bit.

Throughout the entire process, the First God remained motionless, while the Heavenly Sect's heart bled all along.

The feeling of personally killing the one who loved him most was truly unbearable!

Finally, the Heavenly Sect completely extinguished everything of the First God.

This unparalleled Guardian God, unrivaled ruler, a mighty warrior who fought for millions of years, had finally fallen!

After completely extinguishing the First God, the Heavenly Sect collapsed to the ground, as though his soul had been extracted.

Before long, the Heaven-devouring Rat emerged.

It still wore that smug smile, glancing around, it laughed, "Oh, so it ended so quickly?"

"Heavenly Sect, you really killed your father?"

"Hahaha, your so-called deep father-son bond is nothing much after all!"

"In the face of life and death, even the father-son bond isn't that strong!"

The Heavenly Sect fell into a deathly silence, saying nothing. He didn't even glance at the Heaven-devouring Rat.

He sat there blankly, as if he really had no soul.

The Heaven-devouring Rat circled him, sneering, "What?"

"Regret? Annoyance? Or guilt?"

"Useless, the dead cannot come back to life, you should move on!"

"Since you've killed him, I'll keep my promise and let you live, isn't that good news?"

The Heavenly Sect still said nothing, his head bowed, and the pain within his heart made it impossible for him to discern whether he was dead or alive.

Even facing the Heaven-devouring Rat, he no longer felt any fear.

At this moment, life or death meant nothing to him.

The Heaven-devouring Rat rambled on for a while, seeing that the Heavenly Sect remained silent, it seemed to find it somewhat boring.

"Hey, if you don't speak, I'll kill you, you know!"

"After all, you won't talk and there's no reaction, your life is meaningless as it is."

"Killing you means you can accompany your father, isn't that merciful of me?"

The Heaven-devouring Rat said this and began to laugh, just like a terrifying demon.

The Heavenly Sect finally lifted his head, casting a glance at the Heaven-devouring Rat, his eyes filled with hatred.

"You'd best kill me now!"

"Otherwise, one day, I will personally kill you!"

"And I will use the cruelest methods to make you die in excruciating pain!"

The Heaven-devouring Rat was momentarily stunned, then burst out laughing.

"Did I hear you wrong?"

"Heavenly Sect, are you talking to me?"

"Are you crazy or are my ears not working?"

"You actually dare to threaten me?"

"What, afraid you won't die?"

The Heavenly Sect gritted his teeth, issuing hoarse cries from his throat, "Heaven-devouring Rat, one day, I will personally kill you!"

"I will torture you in the most painful ways, I will make you regret being alive!"

"I will ensure that what you did to me today, I will pay back a hundredfold!"

The Heaven-devouring Rat laughed out loud again, "Oh, Heavenly Sect, you've got quite the mouth on you!"

"Still thinking of seeking revenge against me?"

"Do you have the power for that?"

"I'm standing right here, not moving or fighting back, let you kill me, can you do it?"

The Heavenly Sect's face was ashen, "I can't kill you now, but one day, I will personally kill you!"

"Hahaha..." The Heaven-devouring Rat laughed skyward, "Heavenly Sect, stop dreaming, that day will never come!"

"You are just a bunch of insignificant ants, the gap between you and us is too large."

"Like an ant trying to bite an elephant to death, do you think it's possible?"

"You will never have the chance to kill me!"

The Heavenly Sect shouted, "I don't believe it, I will definitely kill you!"

"You shameless rodent, I will kill you by my own hands! I will, for sure!"

Listening to the Heavenly Sect's roars, the Heaven-devouring Rat just laughed madly, as if hearing the funniest thing.

"You're quite confident, aren't you!"

"However, your confidence is meaningless!"

The Heaven-devouring Rat gently waved its paw, encasing the Heavenly Sect in a beam of light.

"But, I still want to keep your life."

"I want you to see us obtain the Source of Heaven and Earth, I want you to know how vast the gap between you and us truly is."

"I want you to realize just how arrogant your current words are!"

"I want you to know that what you just said will never come to pass!"

"I want you to despair, and then kill you, that feeling will surely be wonderful!"
