The silver Divine flame had fused with almost three thousand Laws. Although its power had not increased substantially because Bu Fang had not yet become a God, its elemental power was not weak at all.
As soon as Soul Two and Soul Three closed in on it, they felt an extreme terror, which seemed to cause their bodies to twist and distort. Streams of black smoke twisted to help them fend off the Divine flame, but the moment they approached it, they boiled and then evaporated.
What is this thing?!
The faces of Soul Two and Soul Three, which were concealed by black smoke, turned extremely unsightly.
Charge through the fire! Our target is… that Xiayi Divine Emperor!
Soul Two growled.
Suddenly, the black smoke surged and slammed into the Divine flame, filling the air with a rumbling sound. The flame spread with a boom and turned into a silver divine dragon, baring its teeth and brandishing its claws while roaring. Then, in just a flash, Soul Two was devoured by it. A sizzling sound could be heard, and Soul Two’s aura could no longer be sensed.
How is this even possible?!
Soul Three was almost scared to death, and he forcibly stopped himself in place. Soul Two was not weak. In fact, the strength of all those who could become Numbered Soul Demons was extremely fearsome—human God Kings were just their food. Still, she was swallowed up by the flame before she could even struggle!
Rumbling filled the air as the Divine flame pulsed. Without hesitation, Soul Three turned and bolted away, not daring to get close. There was something terrible and strange about that fire!
Oh? Now you want to flee?
Bu Fang glanced indifferently at Soul Three as the latter fled in panic.
The power of the Divine flame now was terrifying. Since the beginning, it was already a very effective weapon in burning the black balls left behind by these Soul Demons, and now, it was even easier to use it against them.
Bu Fang waved his finger in the void, then pointed it in the distance. The Divine flame immediately burst apart in midair, turning into numerous little silver lotus flowers. Spinning and drifting quietly in the air, these little fire lotus flowers shot toward Soul Three under the control of Bu Fang’s divine sense.
Is he really just a human Demigod? Dammit… How could he be so strong!?
Soul Three was scared out of his wits. He and the other Soul Demons all knew about human Demigods, who were as weak as ants. They were strong enough to kill them as soon as they emerged from the black balls, so it never occurred to him that he, a Numbered Soul Demon, would be forced into such a desperate situation by a human Demigod!
Lord Dog’s eyes gleamed with surprise.
This fire is quite… interesting,
he muttered.
He found that he was now increasingly unable to read Bu Fang. ‘Bu Fang boy’s means are getting stronger and stronger. Also, with such a strong accumulation, it has become tougher and tougher for him to break through to the God realm…’ he thought to himself and breathed out a long sigh.
Looking at Bu Fang, who stood calmly beside him, Lord Dog felt nostalgic for a moment. When they met for the first time, Bu Fang was just an ordinary man who could cook delicious food. However, as time passed, that Bu Fang boy had grown to the point on a par with him. In fact, even his bone was losing its power over Bu Fang.
‘He deserves to be the man who I value much!’

Lord Dog thought of the time in the past when Bu Fang frequently said that he wanted to be a God of Cooking. Now, it seemed likely that he would indeed become a God of Cooking!
A rumbling sound could be heard as one fire lotus after another bloomed in midair. Soul Three tried to flee, but he could not. His escape space was constantly compressed by the fire lotus.
Dammit!
It never occurred to Soul Three that he would come here to die! He was very angry, boiling with rage. He had thought that coming here to occupy the Xiayi Divine Emperor’s body was a good thing, but when he looked at it now, this was simply a suicide mission.
Why wasn’t I as lucky as Soul Thirteen? Instead of running into a seriously injured and dying Divine Emperor, I actually encountered such a heaven-defying Demigod!

Rumble!
Compressed by the Divine flame, Soul Three howled, turned into wisps of black smoke, and vanished into the void. Suddenly, a loud boom rang out, and the void exploded as the Soul Demon, who had turned into black smoke and tried to flee, was burned into nothingness by Bu Fang’s Divine flame.
With a thought in his mind, the Divine flame quickly flew back into Bu Fang’s hand, burning and spinning quietly in his palm. There seemed to be fire flickering in his eyes as he looked at the dancing flame.
In the distant sky, a terrible war was breaking out. That was the war between the Divine Emperor and his calamity. The calamity had turned into an army, and its battle cries shook the sky. The Divine Emperor, on the other hand, was dripping with blood as he fought the army alone.
The whole world fell silent at the sight of this. Everyone was watching quietly as sadness filled their hearts. Some veteran courtiers could no longer hold down their desire to fight, and their bodies were shaking. They could not wait to rush up and fight alongside their Divine Emperor.
The army the Laws had turned into was extremely strong, formidable as the Divine Emperor. He was already badly injured by the Power of Law.
After killing Soul Two and Soul Three, Bu Fang and Lord Dog turned to look at the Divine Emperor, who was transcending his calamity. The latter looked rather miserable.
The Heavengod’s calamity, or rather, the calamity that would descend when one’s end was near, was the greatest tribulation a God Emperor had to transcend. If the Divine Emperor got through it, he would have a chance to live on and break through to the Heavengod realm. If he failed, he would turn into ashes.
The Heavengod’s calamity is indeed… terrifying. Even my fur is standing on end now,
Lord Dog said, sticking out his tongue.
Bu Fang nodded in agreement. The countless soldiers of that army were all Laws, their numbers so many that they were almost equivalent to a corner of the Sea of Laws. This was not something that the average person dared to imagine.
Suddenly, Bu Fang paused. Narrowing his eyes, he glanced at Lord Dog, then at the Divine Emperor, who was covered in blood and fighting like a madman in the distance. ‘Those soldiers are made of Laws… the condensation of the purest Power of Law. In that case…’
Bu Fang looked at the Divine flame, which was burning in his palm. He seemed to feel the exultation coming from it. He bit his lip and thought, ‘It’s a bold idea, but it also seems… very feasible…’
The Divine Emperor was fighting with his Heavengod Punch, and whenever he threw out a punch, one soldier made of Laws would be smashed to pieces and turned into the purest energy, scattering in the void. All he had to do was quietly swallow them with the Divine flame…
‘Perfect!’ The corners of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched slightly. He flicked his fingers, and immediately, a tiny Divine flame—which looked as if it were about to go out at any moment—drifted toward the battlefield that had spread about ten thousand miles in circumference.
The entire skyline of the capital had been transformed into a boundless battle zone. Quietly, the Divine flame approached it. In the face of the vast battlefield, it looked no different from a speck of dust. No one noticed it, except Lord Dog, who was at Bu Fang’s side and saw him throw out the flame.
Lord Dog widened his eyes and stared at Bu Fang in disbelief.
Bu Fang boy…are you out of your mind? That’s the Heavengod’s calamity, and it’s filled with karma! How could you meddle in it? Do you want to be tangled by the calamity? With your current strength, a wisp of the calamity would be enough to wipe you out! This has nothing to do with fighting prowess…
Lord Dog said, his gentle and magnetic voice filled with anxiety.
The corners of Bu Fang’s mouth curled up slightly as he listened to Lord Dog’s caring words. Then, he reached out a hand and patted Lord Dog on the head.
Don’t worry…
he said.
Lord Dog rolled his eyes and did not know what to say anymore. ‘Why is he so calm? He must have no idea how terrible this so-called calamity is! The Xiayi Divine Emperor is at his peak form now, and of the three Divine Emperors in the Chaotic Universe, he is the strongest. And yet, he is already at the end of his tether and about to be tortured to death! How could he be so calm?’
Meddling in the calamity? Bu Fang did not do it by accident. He did that on purpose. Although the Heavengod’s Laws had elevated the Divine flame to a very powerful level, it had not yet reached its perfection. He who risked nothing gained nothing. If this calamity could let the Divine flame reach its perfection, the risk was worth taking. This was why Bu Fang decided to release the Divine flame.
A flickering flame drifted unsteadily across the void, emitting a faint silver light like the dying star in the night sky. Finally, it closed in on the calamity.
Xia Yuhe never noticed the fire. In fact, he did not have the mood to pay attention to a tiny flame now. He threw out another punch, unleashing a terrible energy wave that was powerful enough to destroy heaven and earth. Countless soldiers were crushed to shreds under this punch.
This was the Heavengod Punch. He had once proudly claimed that no one under the Heavengod realm was his match, so he invented this punch technique to put him on par with Heavengods. However, when he looked at it now, he found it extremely ridiculous.
A mere Heavengod’s calamity was about to kill him, and his so-called Heavengod Punch would soon become a joke. He panted violently, and the world in his eyes began to turn somewhat blurry. These soldiers, who were made of the Power of Law, were immortal. He had destroyed hundreds of them, but soon, he was engulfed by thousands and tens of thousands more soldiers. He was beginning to lose his strength.
A group of soldiers was blown apart and turned into the most original Power of Law, swirling in the air. Energy burst out of it as it tried to slowly recover. However, a silver Divine flame drifted over at that moment, flickering as it wrapped around the Power of Law. The next moment, before the Power of Law could condense into soldiers, it was absorbed by the Divine flame. After absorbing a wisp of Power of Law, the Divine flame did not change, and it continued flying toward the next wisp of Power of Law.
Success!
Bu Fang’s eyes lit up. Beside him, Lord Dog twitched his mouth.
The black whirlpool in the sky did not rain down a terrible punishment. Clearly, Bu Fang was not implicated in the calamity. He made the right bet!
At the moment, the whole capital of the Xiayi Divine Dynasty was enveloped in a sad atmosphere. The eyes of the soldiers and generals were red as they looked up at the sky—at their Divine Emperor who never gave up even when he was blanketed and engulfed by countless soldiers. He was still fighting bravely.
They hated the fact that they could not join the Divine Emperor in charging across the battlefield and slaughtering the enemy!
King Pingyang’s face was already covered in tears. He seemed to sense the Divine Emperor’s helplessness. Not only him, but some old courtiers had already slumped to the ground. The Divine Emperor was facing his calamity, and yet they, his subjects, could only watch. They felt that they were not worthy to be his subjects!
Summer was silent, and she felt a little upset. Nethery, on the other hand, was calm as she watched—she did not know the Divine Emperor well. Suddenly, she turned and saw Bu Fang and Lord Dog, who were hovering in the distant sky. With a thought, her aura fluctuated, and she came beside them.
The Divine Emperor was fighting bravely, throwing out one punch after another. He did not want to die, and he did not want to fail. The people of his divine dynasty were all watching right now, and he did not want to disappoint them…
Suddenly, his eyes opened slightly and gleamed. He felt much less pressure. These soldiers of Law… were weakening! Or rather, those soldiers no longer returned after they were destroyed by him! The soldiers were decreasing, and he could still fight! There was hope!
The Divine Emperor focused his eyes and roared with excitement. Air waves burst out of him as he rotated his cultivation base to the extreme.
Rumbling could be heard from inside the spinning black whirlpool. Suddenly, it burst into divine light, and then five beams of light shot out of it. The Divine Emperor felt the pressure mount instantly, and he sucked in a cold breath.
Are they the generals… condensed of the supreme Laws of the Universe?!
Boom!
The next moment, a dragon, a phoenix, a turtle, a tiger, and a Qilin emerged in the sky, all roaring at the same time! Everyone held their breath as they realized that the calamity was finally… at its peak!

Bu Fang’s eyes lit up instantly as he stared at the five existences, his breathing becoming faster.
These are the supreme Laws of the Universe… After devouring them, the Divine flame will definitely reach its perfection!
