Sensing the amount of power that is currently emanating from Ji Di Tian Duo Tian wasn't very confident in being able to finish the First Heaven.

Even if Yuzao Qian and Akatuosi were to rely on the powers of Li Jiu Tian's nine Heavens the chances of them buying him enough time to finish the First Heaven was still slim.

(I'll probably end up having to use it in an incomplete state but if I did that...)

Using the First Heaven in an incomplete state would surely cause it to sustain some damages but-

(*Sigh* if the damages are irreparable I guess I'll just have to toss it aside.)

*Klang! Klang! Klang!* with each hammering sound that goes off the celestial body in front of Duo Tian continues to shrink and the smaller the celestial body became the more irritation Ji Di Tian would feel on his skin.

Instinctively he can tell that the moment the celestial body's outline vanishes the object that is being formed at its center will be completed and despite not knowing what sort of power this object that is meant to be the physical manifestation of Duo Tian's First Heaven will possess he didn't doubt his instincts that warned him of it being a threat.

[...]

Assuming a stance that will allow him to effectively throw out a powerful strike at any given moment Ji Di Tian forms a fist with his right hand.

[...]

[...]

Matching their flow of energy with one another the figure of Yuzao Qian and Akatuosi draws closer to the another and momentarily they fused together.

Responding to their fusion the embryonic form of the 18 celestial bodies that were in their possession did the same.

The resulting celestial bodies appeared more corporeal and the power of Absolute Laws that emanates from them felt purer in quality.

Waving its hand the phantom body occupied by Yuzao Qian and Akatuosi has ten of the 18 celestial bodies behind its back merge together to form the First, Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth Heaven with each of them taking on the form of a blade that positioned themselves within an arm's reach away.

(Are they truly unable to use the last four Heavens or are they just hiding their strength to catch me by surprise when I least expect it?)

Looking at the blades that are meant to represent five of the nine Heavens available to Yuzao Qian and Akatuosi these thoughts appeared in Ji Di Tian's head.

But despite his wariness for surprises he couldn't possibly continue to tread this battle with extreme caution when he has only a limited amount of time to maintain his current state.

[*** ****.]

Muttering two words of an unknown language Ji Di Tian throws out his right fist and following this strike-

(This isn't a physical body so-)

(It's not our eyes that have issues.)

For an instance the vision of Yuzao Qian and Akatuosi blurs for reasons unknown to them.

Though this momentarily blur of their vision had been very brief it was never the less something that caught their attention for despite it not causing them any harm it was never the less the first part of Ji Di Tian's attack.

[*** *****.]

*...!* using the same fist Ji Di Tian throws out a second punch and upon its completion an unknown sound of great discomfort goes off.

If one had to describe the discomfort this sound brought it would probably be similar to hearing the sound of a human's heart rupturing without warning.

Although there weren't any changes on the phantom body occupied by Yuzao Qian and Akatuosi they immediately noticed how all traces of life energy that were near them had vanished.

(No, it's not that they vanished.)

(It's more appropriate to say that he trapped us in a special domain of some sort and this second strike-)

(Had erased all traces of life energy that were originally here.)

[** ***.]

Repeating the same motion that he used to release his second punch a third punch is thrown out and-

(*** ****, shìjiān, world.)

(*** *****, miè shēng, extermination of life.)

(** ***, fǔxiǔ, decay.)

*...!* deciphering the words muttered by Ji Di Tian and sensing the life energy contained in the phantom body deteriorating both Yuzao Qian and Akatuosi arrives at the same conclusion.

Monarch of the Absolute End, this is the title held by Ji Di Tian.

(This is probably an attack based off a world's gradual decline.)

The first punch is meant to designate a target by marking the phantom body that is occupied by Yuzao Qian and Akatuosi as a "world" whereas the second punch is meant to clear away the life energy that surrounds the designated world. And finally, the third punch is used to have the world enter a state of decay.

Although Ming Ye Chuan is most renowned for dividing his Absolute Laws into multiple parts that didn't mean that the other monarchs weren't capable of the same feat.

In fact often times the strongest attack of a monarch is all organized in such a way but in the unique case of Ming Ye Chuan who governs life, death, and reincarnation almost of his Absolute Laws regardless of their strength is always separated into two or more portions.

In a sense this reflects Ming Ye Chuan's abilities as the Monarch of the Yellow Springs whose power is divided into three parts with each part not being able to exist without the others to balance themselves.

[...]

Without waiting for Ji Di Tian to throw out a fourth punch Akatuosi controls the phantom body to grab the blade that represents the First Heaven.
