"My... my heart!" The Lord of the Corpse Nation stared blankly at his heart in Qin Chen's hand, his eyes flashing with confusion and disbelief, as if shocked that his heart had been taken so quickly by the other party.
"Your heart is indeed black."
Qin Chen shook his head, looking at the pulsating heart in his hand. It was clearly the heart of an ancient corpse, yet it was beating at this moment, emanating swirling toxic gas. The toxic gas contained the terrifying Power of the Dao of a great emperor realm powerhouse, capable of polluting a star domain and corroding the Endless Void.
But in Qin Chen's hand, the heart continued to beat, and no matter how much poisonous gas surrounded it, Qin Chen sealed it completely, preventing it from leaking a single trace.
"This guy from the Primal Universe... is definitely emperor level, and it's very likely he is a mid-stage great emperor. No, even among mid-stage great emperors, he is absolutely a standout."
"Impossible! How could a Primal Universe give birth to a powerhouse at the great emperor realm, especially a mid-stage great emperor? This completely violates the rules of the universe's operation."
"How could such a terrifying figure go unheard of before? Could it be... he has never stepped out of this Southern Thirteen Star Domain?"
Despite not understanding how Qin Chen accomplished it, the City Lord Jin Hu, Blood Demon Great Emperor, Saroya, and the Lord of the Corpse Nation were all trembling.
In a single move, they realized the gap between themselves and Qin Chen.
No matter what the other's cultivation was, none of them could achieve taking the heart of the Lord of the Corpse Nation in a single move. It was definitely an overwhelming level of power.
At this moment, all the great emperor powerhouses present felt an invisible pressure, and some even felt their hearts trembling.
In that instant, they also realized... a terrifying figure seemed to have emerged from the Southern Cosmic Sea!
The arrogance on the Lord of the Corpse Nation's face completely vanished. He looked at Qin Chen in terror, stammering, "You... Sir, please spare my heart, we can talk this over, please... spare me."
In a single move, he had understood that he could never be Qin Chen's opponent, that even his corpse poison Power of the Dao couldn't taint the other by even a bit. If he continued to fight, he would have no chance of victory.
"Spare you?"
Qin Chen looked coldly at the Lord of the Corpse Nation. In him, Qin Chen saw endless sin, saw countless wronged clans, saw numerous tragic and howling souls.
"You... killed so many innocent clans, killed so many life forms. Did you ever think about sparing them when you exterminated them?" Qin Chen's gaze was icy.
From the heaven's punishment mercenary group, from the Ancient Emperor senior, from the Lord of the Corpse Nation, he saw innumerable things that repulsed him.
He could accept that some existences would stop at nothing to become stronger, but he could not accept these people treating life as mere grass, wantonly humiliating, oppressing, and killing.
What difference is there between such a person and a beast?
As the words fell.
Under everyone's gaze, Qin Chen's big hand suddenly grasped, and with a thunderous sound, the poisonous heart of the Lord of the Corpse Nation was crushed on the spot, turning into overwhelming poisonous gas that dissipated.
From Qin Chen's palm, a terrifying aura of killing intent surged forth, instantly annihilating this toxic gas Power of the Dao, completely strangling it to death.
This toxic heart, after all, was a condensation of the toxic gas Power of the Dao from a great emperor, worth a considerable amount in the cosmic sea, and could fetch a good price. Even in the Primal Universe, it could enhance the origin of the Primal Universe.
But Qin Chen found it filthy, preferring to destroy it entirely rather than leave it behind.
"You..."
Seeing Qin Chen directly crush his own heart, the Lord of the Corpse Nation was instantly shocked. His figure suddenly retreated, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes as he roared, "Explode!"
