# Chapter 485: Death Descends

At this moment, Clark and Carol both showed signs of fatigue, but Thanos, despite his purple body being covered in wounds, had his wounds healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his aura was increasing instead of decreasing.

If the previous Thanos was a giant elephant, then the Thanos who had died and resurrected dozens of times and completely absorbed his This Universe counterpart was like a Tyrannosaurus Rex that had completed its transformation.

For Clark and Carol, some stamina consumption was nothing. To be serious, either of them was an existence capable of pushing a ten-thousand-ton dreadnought for interstellar travel in Space.

But compared to the consumption of stamina, the psychological pressure they endured was the reason they looked so fatigued.

Especially for Clark Kent, his teammates suffered heavy casualties, yet he was powerless. Now, he couldn't even avenge them.

With the aid of super vision, Clark Kent clearly saw the mocking expression on Thanos's face. This God Among Men clenched his fist. For the first time in his life, he hated his insufficient strength!

"Death! I misunderstood you, is this your blessing?!"

His golden armor was already incomplete and damaged. Thanos looked up at the cold Space. Although he had been kicked out of the Death World dozens of times by Death, these dozens of meetings only made the love in Thanos's heart for Death more fervent.

He even felt that the undying curse Death placed on him was proof of her love.

Thanos spread his arms, looking profoundly at The Void above. The next moment, a golden light flashed behind him, and a golden whip struck him squarely on the back of the head.

*Crack!* Thanos let out a muffled groan. His purple bald head was instantly smashed by the golden whip.

As his head shattered like a rotten watermelon, Thanos's body instantly lost vitality, and his soul entered the unknown Death World.

However, in less than a second, Thanos's soul was kicked out of the Death World.

Thanos, whose shattered head had recovered, had just opened his eyes when a sharp sword qi, too fast for him to even detect, suddenly stabbed straight from behind his head.

The sword qi was extremely fast and had extremely strong penetrative power. Thanos had no time to react, and his head was pierced. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw his beloved Goddess of Death (Hela).

"It's you!"

Thanos opened his eyes again, only to see a guy who made his eyes about to split from rage. Deadpool Wade, holding a blood-colored longsword in his hand, flashed out from Void Space with his familiar cheeky grin. Beside him stood Frank and Old Demon Dragon.

Behind the three of them were tens of thousands of Big men wearing yellow turban headbands, with faces like red jade, standing up to three meters tall, their bodies stout and broad like a wall. These Big men bared their heavily muscled upper bodies, wearing battle skirts embroidered with patches of cloud and mist on their lower bodies! As these armored soldiers formed formations and ranks, the aura around their entire body connected into one. This strength made Thanos's corner of the eye twitch, and his skin broke out in goosebumps.

"Who exactly are you people?" Thanos stared at Deadpool Wade in a deep voice.

"Have you forgotten how you came to This Universe?" Frank looked at Thanos with a smile. "If Death hadn't protected you, do you think you could have come to this Parallel Universe alive!?"

Thanos's body trembled violently. He looked at Frank in disbelief. After a long time, he bellowed at the few people, "It was you!"

Frank didn't pay attention to Thanos's roar. He waved his hand, and the tens of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers behind him shouted in unison. Twenty-one thousand two hundred and twenty-four Heavenly Soldiers jointly activated a simplified version of the Circulatory Heaven Star Array.

The pitch-black Outer Space immediately flickered with starlight. The brilliant starlight was as bright as the moon, and the sky full of constellations was exceptionally bright. Those stars almost gave people the illusion, as if they could touch them by reaching out.

Threads of crystalline green light, almost visible to the naked eye, shot out from above those stars.

*Whoosh! Whoosh!* Starlight gathered into a sheet of silver light, like the Heavenly River pouring down, rushing straight down.

As the formation of tens of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers rotated, all the matter around Thanos, and even Space, began to compress inwards under that countless starlight.

The pressure around Thanos was increasing almost exponentially. In the blink of an eye, the Space pressure around him for hundreds of kilometers even reached the pressure of a white dwarf surface at one point.

As the pressure continuously increased, the meteorite where Thanos stood directly shattered into fine dust! And as the pressure further increased, the Space around Thanos seemed to collapse inwards, forming a small Black Hole. All matter within an area of hundreds of thousands of miles began to churn.

Under the Black Hole's powerful gravitational wave, like flies that smelled blood, they frantically rushed towards here.

And Thanos, standing at the center of the Black Hole, the immense pressure from all sides caused his purple skin to crack inch by inch, seeping out faint blood threads. He struggled with all his might, but couldn't even move a single finger.

How could the strength of one person contend with a Black Hole, not to mention the restrictive magic power jointly applied by tens of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers?

Under the gaze of the crowd, Thanos's flesh and blood, bone, and internal organs were crushed bit by bit, disappearing into the Black Hole.

"Is he dead!?" Clark Kent came to Frank's side and asked in a deep voice.

"It's not that simple!" Frank shook his head. "The undying curse on Thanos originates from Death. Death holds sway over the multiversal rules of death. That is immortality at the conceptual level!"

"Is that woman really that formidable?" Deadpool beside him blinked repeatedly upon hearing their conversation. His concept of Death still only stayed on those very white, very smooth long legs.

"Can we only let this Executioner live?" Red light flickered in Clark Kent's eye as he looked at the Black Hole.

That Black Hole was still continuously devouring all the matter around it, even light was devoured by it—

Frank glanced at Clark Kent. "Compared to him, I think you should be concerned about your friends?"

Clark Kent's expression changed. He turned his head to look at Frank and said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by this?"

Frank's divine sense swept over the center of the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Formation, the Thanos that was continuously resurrecting and continuously being torn apart by the Black Hole. In the center of the formation, countless Blood Shadows were flying around the edge of the Black Hole, greedily opening their large mouths, devouring Thanos's drifting flesh and blood.

The suppression of the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Formation seemed to not exist at all for these Blood God Clones. Thanos's body had just disintegrated, and his entire flesh and blood was immediately devoured completely by these Blood God Clones.

This was the essence blood of an Eternal Titan at the Skyfather level, comparable to a True Immortal Level! Many Blood Shadows, after devouring Thanos's essence blood, directly evolved into Blood God Clones. And after continuously devouring Thanos dozens of times, some Blood God Clones even began to evolve towards a higher level—

As for the only victim, while Frank and Clark Kent were talking, Thanos had already experienced hundreds of cycles of life and death reincarnation.

Witnessing Thanos's tragic fate firsthand, Frank gained a clearer understanding of what Boss Tang said: 'immortality without strength is not necessarily a good thing.'

Cautiously sweeping the formation with his divine sense and confirming that Thanos couldn't escape, Frank then nodded towards Clark Kent with relief. "Boss Tang asked me to tell you, your friends are fine. The Soul Stone is in Boss Tang's hands and can resurrect them at any time!"

"Really!" Clark Kent's voice couldn't hide his excitement. Frank shook his head. "Boss Tang said, since you signed the contract, you are employees of our Company. Even if you are temporary contract workers, our group can still guarantee your most basic life safety!"

Clark Kent opened his mouth wide in surprise. He never expected that single contract they signed actually saved the lives of Bruce Wayne and the others.

Thinking back to their malicious speculation about that contract afterwards, a sense of chaotic absurdity lingered in Clark Kent's heart. He was stunned for a full three or four minutes before he reacted.

"The Soul Stone is in your hands!" Carol suddenly interjected. She looked at Frank and his group, her eyes were full of wary. "Mr., I hope you will hand over the Soul Stone. It doesn't belong to you, nor does it belong to anyone. The Infinity Stone is a treasure of This Universe! It shouldn't become a tool for ambitious people to realize their ambition!"

Frank's gaze swept over Carol and gave a cold laugh. "Since the Infinity Stone is a treasure of the entire Universe, then why did it fall into Thanos's hands? You should know the consequences once he gathers all the Infinity Stones!"

Frank shook his head, not wanting to bother with this idealist. "Since you couldn't protect the Infinity Stone, then it's perfect being with our Boss Tang. It also saves someone from using it to cleanse the entire Universe later."

Carol was about to say something else when she suddenly felt a chill behind her back. She turned her head back, wary.

A stout and burly Old Man appeared behind her at some point, staring at her with a fierce gaze.

Seeing that Carol had noticed him, Old Demon Dragon nonchalantly lowered the Wutu Mountain Driving Whip he held high, put it behind his back, whistled, and walked to the side.

Compared to Carol's focus on the Infinity Stone, Clark Kent was more concerned about the present. He stared at Frank and asked, "When will Boss Tang resurrect Wayne and the others!?"

Frank gestured towards the Black Hole in the center of the formation. "Let's deal with that trouble first!"

Clark Kent followed Frank's action and looked at the Black Hole, nodding vigorously. "We should indeed deal with this Executioner first. For his own crazy ideal, he actually wants to eliminate the population of a Universe. This kind of madman shouldn't exist in this World. He is too dangerous!"

A madman with delusions is not terrifying, but a madman who possesses powerful strength and is full of execution is extremely terrifying!

Tens of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers continuously drew upon stellar power, converging in the center of the formation where Thanos was located. The pressure condensed into a single point, forming an artificial Black Hole. Thanos's body was continuously torn apart by the massive Black Hole, dying and living again, living and dying again, enduring pain comparable to death by a thousand cuts!

As time slowly passed, deep within that unknown Death World, Death, resting on the white bone throne, gradually sensed something was wrong.

That Thanos was appearing before her too frequently, and the divine power consumed to resurrect him after expelling him was actually increasing exponentially—

Although this small amount of divine power consumed was not worth mentioning at all for her, who controls the multiversal rules of death, this anomaly still attracted Death's attention.

After kicking Thanos out of the Death World again, Death cast her gaze towards this Parallel Universe—

In the unknown Dimensional Void, upon the canopy and rue incense chariot, Tang Song, who had just flicked out a pebble, sensed a massive, inexplicable consciousness descending upon This Universe.

In terms of sheer mass/presence, Tang Song had only felt the same aura from the Supreme God and Second Generation God Elaine Belloc. That was multiversal level power.

"Is the gap this big?" Tang Song shook his head. Behind him appeared the phantom of a Candle Dragon with a human face and snake body, but it vanished in an instant.

Reality Dimension, in the center of the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Formation, in that cold and pitch-black Space, a naked, white foot stepped on The Void and appeared above the formation, followed by another equally white, smooth foot—

Looking up from the feet was a pair of slender, straight beautiful legs, and a graceful, faintly visible woman's figure.

The white bone mask concealed the woman's true appearance. Her attention seemed to be attracted by the Black Hole, observing Thanos in the Black Hole with interest, and the Blood Shadows continuously devouring Thanos's flesh and blood.

"No wonder this little guy comes to the Death World so frequently. Interesting idea! But you are quite bold to actually dare to steal my strength!"

Death extended a finger and lightly pointed towards the Black Hole.

Death's seemingly insignificant strike was as if the strength of billions of stars converged on her single finger, simultaneously smashing down towards the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Formation covering thousands of kilometers.

Death's finger had not yet fallen, and the radiance of the Star Great Formation immediately dimmed. That shimmering silver light entirely contracted inwards by hundreds of kilometers.

The silver starlight continuously contracted. Under mutual pressure, it emitted a huge creaking sound.

The scales of the armored skirts of tens of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers rubbed together. Blue veins bulged on the faces of these Big men, as if enduring billions of tons of pressure.

Frank flew into the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Formation, entering the formation with his body, controlling the change of the Great Formation. Thousands of silver light beams over ten kilometers thick rumbled out from the Star Great Formation, rushing towards Death.

The entire Circulatory Heaven Star Great Formation, under Frank's command, was like a mutated hedgehog, rapidly rotated. Those countless silver light beams collided with each other, rubbed against each other and swung rapidly. Countless elemental forces (earth, water, fire, wind) natural energy surged out towards the Goddess of Death (Hela).

With a loud 'crackling' sound, a massive purple thunder spanned the entire Void Space, splitting through thousands of kilometers in the vacuum.

The speed of the purple lightning was extremely fast. As soon as it appeared, it arrived before the Goddess of Death (Hela), splitting down towards her head. The Goddess of Death (Hela) faced this strike that tore through The Void, her finger still lightly pointed down, like a dragonfly skimming the water. The purple thunder sliced through the dark Space. In that instant, a thick finger like a mountain, no, thick as a star, a white bone finger with clearly defined joints, descended from the sky. Countless dead souls surrounded the white bone finger, converging into a River of Souls with a diameter of hundreds of millions of kilometers.

*Pfft!*
