After work, start to speedrun the other world-Chapter 443 - 169: I told you, you... are very weak!

"This should be the final duel to the death," the God of Duel stepped back a few paces, eyeing the standoff between Ahtal and the God of War with a look of regret on his face, "The arena will become a mere sports venue after this."

"The final duel to the death?" Xi Mu chuckled lightly, the Great Sword of Death in his hand ignited with black flames, "That’s a very unprofessional judgment."

"Quite the confident statement," the God of War laughed heartily, reaching his hand into the void and pulling out a weapon resembling both a giant axe and a sword, with the edge extending like the head of an axe, taking on the shape of a large sword.

But the hilt was nearly two meters long.

"Because you’re weak," Xi Mu said with a malicious smile, red scales emerging on his skin as his body also burst into black flames, turning his silver armor black, his aura wild and dangerous.

"If you can defeat the God of War," the God of Duel stepped back, his body gradually becoming ethereal, and informed Ahtal, "your next opponent will be the Universal Level... God of Destruction."

The arrangement of Ahtal’s opponents was incremental; he was not faced with an unbeatable enemy right from the start. However, if Ahtal could defeat the God of War, it would be necessary to arrange for a stronger opponent, that is, a God of Universal Level strength to end Ahtal’s life.

Otherwise, it would be no different than sending a weak God to their death.

"So you must be the Universal Level gatekeeper?" Xi Mu tilted his head and asked the God of War, but there was a sense of certainty in his words.

When it comes to pure power, no deity in the high heavens is stronger than the God of War, thanks to his unique mechanism.

Any enemy observed by the God of War allows him to replicate their strength on a one-to-one basis, though this replication does not include their abilities. Nevertheless, it can increase the God of War’s power to an immeasurable degree.

Every casual punch was an embodiment of the allure of powerful numbers.

This was why he referred to the God of War as the Universal Level gatekeeper; aside from stronger beings with more powerful mechanisms, the God of War’s strength was unquestionable.

"Then you might be disappointed, for I have personally slain a Universal Level demon," the God of War’s aura swelled at that moment, his presence amplifying, with all the observing deities replicating his power one-to-one, constantly increasing his numerical strength, causing his power to surge explosively.

This was an unprecedented enhancement, as there had never been so many deities present, allowing his power to expand like never before.

Even the God of Omniscience would not be a match for him in terms of pure power.

"Truly...surprising," Xi Mu said, his gaze turning serious as he watched the God of War’s aura grow, until at a certain moment, the aura of the God of War suddenly diminished, as if the strengthening process was hindered by an invisible obstacle.

This was not because there was an upper limit to the numerical increase of the God of War’s power.

"..." The God of War glanced at the Goddess of Life in the audience, realizing she had shielded her power from him, preventing him from replicating her power on a one-to-one basis. Nevertheless, this was already enough for him.

Upon reaching the Universal Level, a being is not only able to block mental interference, but also the interference of other powers, ensuring they remain in a relatively independent state.

The reason he was able to defeat a Universal Level demon was that the demon had failed against the God of Omniscience and had fallen into an unprecedentedly weakened state. He replicated the powers of All Gods to bolster his own and thus slew the Universal Level demon.

Otherwise, it’s incredibly difficult to kill a being of the Universal Level.

"Game rules: seek survival in the world of death," Xi Mu unfolded the kingdom within his heart, intending to bestow death upon the God of War directly.

He expanded his inner kingdom to less than ten meters in range, undeniably compressing it to the limit compared to the past, when it could cover the range of several countries.

This was a necessity, as his inner kingdom encompassing the range of several countries could not inflict damage upon the God of War.

The inner kingdom had to be compressed to a certain extent.

"Boom!" The God of War moved instantaneously, his body shooting forward like a bullet exiting the barrel, dodging the inner kingdom unleashed by Ahtal.

And the earth collapsed violently at that moment, the entire arena seeming to crumble instantaneously.

All Gods in the audience became unsteady.

"Transform the arena," the God of Duel used his power at that moment to interfere with the arena.

The center of the arena turned into a boundless desert instantaneously, a sandstorm blinding the vision of the All Gods. However, it was quickly adjusted by the God of Duel and the central battle scene in the arena was broadcasted.

This move was akin to creating a microcosm within the arena and focusing the camera on the pertinent characters.

"Boom!" A cloud of sand and dust erupted, and suddenly the figure of the God of War was sent flying backward, only to be abruptly met with a sword strike from Ahtal, who appeared behind him, hitting his cheek and sending him flying back on a reversed trajectory.

"What on earth is going on?" The Goddess of Spring blinked in confusion, utterly bewildered by what happened; the God of War, who held an overwhelming advantage in power, shouldn’t have been sent flying.

She was very clear about how powerful the God of War was; that unbeatable strength that emerged as soon as he used his power.

It was impossible for anyone to overpower the God of War in strength.
