Lawful Tyrant

Chapter 357 The Path to Invincibility
"Finally a breakthrough..."

Although the threat from Uncle Xiaoying was imminent, Lin Qing felt a sense of relief.

With the position of the chief god and numerous extraordinary treasures containing the rules of the future, he has completely mastered a kind of spacetime mystery in just over three million years!
This also represents the beginning of higher chaotic beings!

Lin Qing immediately focused on the world within her body, naturally integrating the perfect mysteries of space and time into the rules of that world, thus causing a transformation within it.

"boom!!"

At this moment, Lin Qing appeared calm on the surface, but the world within him was undergoing an astonishing and earth-shattering transformation!
As the Chaos Origin Crystal that he had previously placed in his inner world was rapidly consumed, a massive amount of energy began to flow out continuously, and his inner world was also rapidly transforming under the support of this vast energy.

Like the rebirth of heaven and earth, or the change of the world, his inner world expanded wildly and became more stable. Although the origin of the world had not yet been born, it was already powerful enough.

All these dramatic changes occurred within Lin Qing's body in that seemingly infinitely small yet infinitely large world.

No one outside knew about it.

At this moment, everyone was paying attention to Xiao Yingbo's gaze, and they couldn't help but turn their heads to look in the direction of his gaze, only to find that Xiao Yingbo was looking at this lowly chaotic being.

The two lower-level chaotic beings also looked over.

Although they all came from extraordinary backgrounds, they were far inferior to Xiaoyingbo in both background and strength.

In terms of background and strength, Xiao Yingbo is undoubtedly the best present!

Uncle Jiujian also sensed the ill intent of Uncle Xiaoying and immediately transmitted his voice, "Mr. Jialin, do you have a grudge against Uncle Xiaoying?"

Lin Qing's attention was mainly focused on his inner world at this time. Upon hearing this, he transmitted his voice and said, "Oh, I killed two of Blood Sea Marquis's personal disciples. I guess they were Uncle Xiaoying's junior brothers."

Now that he had broken through, he needed to make his move in the trials, so there was no need for him to hide it any longer.

"Two of the Blood Sea Marquis's personal disciples?"

Nine Streams Elder was slightly taken aback. At this moment, he finally knew who Lin Qing was and couldn't help but transmit his voice, "So you are the 'Qin Lin' who killed Flame Blood Elder and his junior brother on Jueying Star tens of thousands of years ago?"

“That’s also my alias.” Lin Qingqing nodded slightly.

Uncle Jiujian couldn't help but take a deep breath.

The absurd rumor that the dignified Flameblood Earl was instantly killed by a lowly chaotic being was naturally widely circulated, and he couldn't possibly be unaware of it.

Now he understood where this mysterious young man's confidence in participating in the elite selection trials came from.

At the same time, Uncle Xiaoying walked towards Lin Qing step by step with a smile.

The terrifying pressure, which was only half a step away from entering eternity, spread out wantonly, pressing down on Lin Qing without any restraint.

Compared to lower-level chaotic beings, the life level of higher-level chaotic beings represents a qualitative leap, not to mention that Lord Xiaoying is a top expert among them.

For advanced chaotic beings, once their inner world incorporates various mysteries of space and time, even if their life level cannot undergo a qualitative change, their inner world will become more powerful!

And the peak powerhouse—

This means that every spatial and temporal mystery within the rules has been integrated into the body's inner world, making the power of the world extremely strong. It only needs to be fully integrated to form a complete set of spatial and temporal rules to achieve eternity!
Peak powerhouses, as long as they are willing to join the ranks of the eternal beings, can generally obtain the second-generation bloodline of chaotic beings, so their strength far surpasses that of ordinary high-level chaotic beings.

As a terrifyingly powerful cultivator who has mastered the current rules, Xiao Yingbo's inner world has naturally long since integrated the four mysteries of spacetime under the current rules.

The pressure emanating from such a powerful being is more than ten times stronger than that of an ordinary high-level chaotic being. How could a low-level chaotic being possibly withstand it?

“Lord Shadow Owl…”

Uncle Jiujian frowned, hesitating whether he should step in to help Lin Qing this time.

He couldn't afford to offend Xiaoyingbo, and he also understood that Xiaoyingbo was far superior to him in both strength and background.

Therefore, if he chooses to help Lin Qing at this moment, he will be going against Xiao Yingbo. Although this may be a lifeline for Lin Qing, a low-level chaotic being, he will also be taking a huge risk.

On the contrary, if he chooses to stand by and do nothing, Lin Qing might feel a little disheartened by him, but it won't affect anything.

"That's all..."

Uncle Jiujian sighed inwardly, having already made up his mind.

He stood up, looked at Uncle Xiaoying who was walking towards him, and smiled, "Uncle Xiaoying, I didn't expect that my son's friend could actually attract your attention?"

As soon as Jiujianbo stood up, his figure became like a wall of the world, blocking Lin Qing's way and isolating him from Xiaoyingbo's aura and pressure.

In terms of cultivation level, he was on par with Xiaoyingbo, so resisting the pressure was naturally no problem for him.

Lin Qing was also taken aback when he saw that Uncle Jiujian would actually help him resist the pressure from Uncle Xiaoying.

"The Earl of Jiujian would actually help me?"

Lin Qing was somewhat surprised, "He has no idea about my relationship with His Majesty the Prince of Guang, and I haven't even become his disciple yet..."

but……

At this moment, he no longer had much fear of Xiaoyingbo, the legendary powerhouse who was almost invincible below the Eternal Realm.

Because he has already broken through.

"The inner world continues to transform. Fortunately, I had already envisioned integrating the divine skill 'World God' into the theory of perfect spacetime. I'll just re-examine it; as long as it's theoretically feasible..."

Lin Qing devoted a small amount of her attention to maintaining the transformation of her inner world at the fastest speed, while focusing her main attention on deducing the theory of divine techniques.

At this point, he could already integrate the perfect mysteries of space and time into his divine skills.

We had already come up with several ideas, and now, after a little deduction, we can confirm that the theory works and make advance payments!

At that time, the world god will be even more mysterious, and its power will be elevated to a higher level.

"Oh?"

Xiao Yingbo's eyes flickered slightly as he looked at Jiu Jianbo, who was blocking his way, and said with a smile, "Jiu Jianbo, do you know who he is? Do you know what kind of behavior it is to protect him like this?"

Lord Jiujian slowly said, "No matter who he is, he is now a member of my Star Refining Army, belonging to the Star Refining Army just like us, and also a member of the Star Refining Army like Lord Xiaoying. This was said by the Marquis himself. Does Lord Xiaoying still remember?"

"Star Refining Marquis?" Xiao Yingbo laughed. "You actually use the title of Star Refining Marquis to intimidate me?"

He scoffed, "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. This man killed two of my junior brothers. You can't take responsibility for that."

"I was just following the rules," said Uncle Jiujian without changing his expression. "Please forgive me, Uncle Xiaoying."

He knew he couldn't afford to offend Uncle Xiaoying, and Uncle Xiaoying wouldn't give up just because of him, so he could only use the rules to intimidate him!

At the same time, he immediately sent a message to Xinglianhou.

“Rules?” Uncle Xiaoying laughed. “What a set of rules. Hmm… If I break the rules, the most severe punishment is being expelled from the Frozen Empire and forced to return to the Myriad Seas Divine Kingdom. Heh… that is indeed a very heavy punishment.”

Uncle Jiujian's expression changed slightly.

Xiao Yingbo clearly didn't care about these rules and punishments at all.

And they didn't take him seriously at all!

The surrounding higher chaotic beings also subconsciously held their breath, realizing for the first time the strength and domineering nature of Lord Xiaoying.

Lord Jiujian was a confidant of Marquis Xinglian and a top expert among the chaotic beings, but Lord Xiaoying didn't take him seriously at all!

This made Uncle Jiujian feel somewhat aggrieved and humiliated.

"Lord Xiaoying, you actually recognize me?"

Suddenly, a slightly deep voice rang out from behind Uncle Jiujian.

Lin Qing stood up, stepped out of the boundary that separated the aura of Uncle Jiujian, and quietly looked at Uncle Xiaoying, as if he did not feel the terrifying aura and pressure emanating from Uncle Xiaoying at all.

"Oh?" Uncle Xiaoying looked at Lin Qing with slight surprise. "You do have some courage, actually able to withstand my pressure?"

He already suspected that there was something wrong with Yu Gong asking him to help, so he naturally planned to observe the situation further.

Even if he were to take action, he would need to be prepared for the consequences.

Suddenly--

“Lord Shadow Owl”.

A deep voice suddenly echoed between heaven and earth: "The trial has not yet begun. Our Star Refining Army forbids attacking fellow soldiers. This is the rule. Whoever violates this rule, no matter who it is, will be expelled from the Star Refining Army. Please understand."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yingbo paused for a moment, then smiled, casually sat down in the seat next to him, and said lazily, "Alright, then I'll give you face, Marquis Xinglian."

Uncle Jiujian breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he notified Xinglian Hou in time, and also informed Xinglian Hou that Jialin was Qin Lin, and that he was suspected of possessing the bloodline of the first generation of chaotic creatures.

With Xing Lianhou's intelligence, he would surely be able to judge that these two are not to be trifled with, that he cannot favor either of them, and that he must follow the rules and leave the forces behind them speechless.

The Earl of Jiujian then sat down and transmitted his voice to Lin Qing: "Mr. Jialin, everything is alright for now. Since the Marquis has already taken precautions, the Earl of Xiaoying can't attack you at will. Find an opportunity to leave before the trial begins."

"Thank you for stepping forward, Uncle Jiujian," Lin Qing transmitted his voice.

“It’s nothing, it was just following the rules.” Uncle Jiujian sighed helplessly. “However, Uncle Xiaoying is indeed domineering. I’m afraid that among the current high-level chaotic beings in the entire King Realm, there may not be anyone who can defeat Uncle Xiaoying.”

"Nowadays?" Lin Qing's heart stirred, and he transmitted his voice with some curiosity, "So, there were once high-level chaotic beings in the King Realm who were able to defeat Lord Xiaoying?"

"Of course, the gap between the upper and lower limits of higher chaotic beings is also quite exaggerated."

Uncle Jiujian nodded slightly and transmitted his voice, "It's like the eternal being and the ultimate being. Both have mastered the complete rules of spacetime, but their strengths are worlds apart."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing couldn't help but feel curious.

I've heard that the ultimate being has reached the end of time and space, and has mastered all the rules of time and space. What's the difference?

However, now is not the time to worry about that. Lin Qing immediately asked, "Has Uncle Xiaoying's strength not reached the upper limit of a high-level chaotic being?"

"Even Xiaoyingbo is almost invincible among the advanced chaotic beings of this era."

Nine Streams Earl transmitted his voice, saying, "In terms of realm, Xiao Ying Earl is at the peak level. He has also cultivated many supreme secret techniques, as well as combined divine skills and the Primordial Treasure Set cultivated to its limit. Theoretically, he is indeed invincible. However, there are some peerless figures who only exist in legends and are above him."

"For example, there were terrifying beings who cultivated the Eternal Treasure Set during the era of advanced chaotic beings!"

"For example, the disciples of the three great divine kingdoms cultivated invincible secret techniques that surpassed the level of supreme secret techniques, and they were also able to defeat Lord Xiaoying!"

Uncle Jiujian sighed and transmitted his voice, "However, such beings have only appeared in legends. It is said that they can even contend with many eternal beings with the body of a chaotic being, and are truly invincible."

Beyond the level of supreme secret arts?

Lin Qing's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately thought of "Cosmic Calamity".

He also cultivated the Cosmic Calamity Body Technique. Although he was still at the beginner level, its power was already incredible. However, no one had yet forced him to use this secret technique.

However, now that he has reached the level of a higher chaotic being, as long as the other two spacetime mysteries are perfected, he has a chance to cultivate the "Cosmic Calamity Body" to its full potential.

This terrifying secret technique truly surpasses even the highest level of secret techniques.

"I see……"

Lin Qing had gained a certain understanding of Xiao Yingbo's strength.

Very strong indeed.

However, he has a chance to surpass it, because he not only possesses the "Cosmic Calamity Body" inheritance created by His Majesty the Light King, but also has the opportunity to obtain a peerless treasure that can transform his natal treasure into an eternal treasure!
This is the invincible path that His Majesty the King of Light has shown him.

It just takes time.

"Even now, even if I am not as good as him, I will soon have no need to be afraid of him."

Lin Qing's heart was as calm as still water, but deep within his eyes, clear, illusory images faintly appeared—future timelines. He could now be considered a higher chaotic being.

It's just that the spacetime divine body hasn't yet transformed into a world divine body, but the level of life is already the same.

Therefore, even advanced chaotic beings cannot affect his observation of future timelines.

"Once the transformation of my inner world is complete, I will conduct a preliminary calculation to determine the most suitable world god body..."

Lin Qing pondered to herself.

To transform into a world god body by harnessing the power of the world requires deducing and figuring out a suitable transformation method. It is normal for someone with average comprehension to spend tens of thousands or even millions of years.

A quick breakthrough on the spot isn't too outrageous.

He naturally wouldn't waste this time; he would take the advance payment if possible.

"Humph."

Sitting not far away, Xiao Yingbo glanced at Lin Qing, who remained calm, and a hint of mockery flickered in his eyes.

He could tell that Lin Qing was so calm because he believed that nothing could truly threaten him, relying on the presence of the main god's avatar.

As everyone knows...

Yu Gong intends to turn this promising genius into an eternal and indestructible god. Once he seals him away and integrates him with eternal divine blood, this genius will be ruined.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.

He wasn't particularly interested in avenging his two fellow disciples; he'd just kill them if he happened to run into them, but he wouldn't personally come looking for them.

But Yu's conditions were far too high.

Therefore, it doesn't matter if Lin Qing is let go now; it just means we'll have to act later.

Once you get into the trial, there will be plenty of opportunities!
"Everyone."

At this moment, a vast power suddenly condensed above the waiting area, forming an avatar out of thin air, and the pressure filled with the meaning of eternity spread out.

Dressed in a crisp black uniform, with a dignified and cold expression, he was none other than Marquis Xinglian.

"The elite selection trial is extremely dangerous, so only those who pass the preliminary selection are qualified to enter the formal trial stage."

As Xing Lianhou looked down at the many advanced chaotic beings below, his voice echoed: "This preliminary selection is very simple. Fifty-four thousand trial participants will enter the battle stage one by one and defeat the Eternal Puppet within. This Eternal Puppet is a modified version of the chaotic creature 'Sky Vault Mist Shadow,' and only those with at least the top strength among advanced chaotic beings can possibly defeat it."

"When you fight on the battle stage, it is also a time for your fellow Star Refining Army soldiers to get to know you. There is no need to worry too much."

"Then, let's get started."

As his voice echoed, the avatar of Xing Lianhou vanished.

At the same time, a stern-faced, silver-haired old man landed in front of the battle platform and said, "I am the Marquis's adjutant. I am here to preside over the preliminary selection on behalf of the Marquis. Please enter the battle platform one by one according to your registration number so that I can verify the winners and losers."

"Then let's start with number 1."

The advanced chaotic being ranked number 1 looked somewhat helpless, but still flew into the space-time where the battle arena was located, and could be clearly seen from the outside.

Suddenly, mist rose from the battle platform, spreading at an astonishing speed and instantly filling the entire space-time of the platform. Then, the thick white mist surged and quickly gathered together.

Then, it condenses to its extreme and transforms into a single, clear drop of water.

The water droplet then spread out, instantly forming a human figure made entirely of water.

All the higher beings watched this scene closely.

The Celestial Mist Shadow is a powerful chaotic creature that, when fully grown, can rival the strongest beings in the eternal realm!
This puppet was clearly of impure blood in its previous life, and could only be considered a weakened version.

The moment the puppet was formed, it transformed into a stream of light like water and flew towards the first trial participant at an astonishing speed.

Upon seeing this speed, the first trainee's expression changed, and he immediately and without hesitation said, "I concede!"

Even though he deliberately controlled the power of the world to vibrate and made a sound, and manipulated time to accelerate, he was still hit by the water light in that instant. Even though the light on his body burst out and he had already unleashed his strongest defense, half of his body was still instantly turned into nothingness.

Immediately afterwards, he was teleported off the battle stage by an invisible force of spacetime.

After leaving the battle platform, the first trial participant quickly gathered energy to recover his body, but there was still a trace of lingering fear in his eyes.

If it weren't for his skill in preserving his life, he would have almost died!
"So strong?"

The advanced chaotic beings in the candidate area all changed color.

In a short time, most of the higher chaotic beings understood the consequences of their rise to power.

"I give up."

"give up."

"Fine, I'll give up."

Next, when it was the turn of the advanced chaotic beings, the vast majority of them voluntarily gave up.

After all, most advanced chaotic beings are only of average strength.

Mastering one or two mysteries of spacetime, possessing the bloodline of three generations of chaotic beings, cultivating the Primordial Treasure to its limit, and learning one or two primordial secret techniques—that's about it.

Moreover, it takes a long time of cultivation and accumulation to reach this point.

Those who possess a natal treasure, like Yan Xuebo, are already considered quite remarkable.

To truly stand out among higher chaotic beings requires extremely high standards, and only a very few can achieve this.

For example, the second-generation bloodline of chaotic beings.

For example, the supreme secret technique.

For example, there are combination skills and set treasures.

However, these conditions are increasingly stringent, making them inaccessible to most people.

In an instant, one after another, the advanced chaotic beings chose to give up.

Even among the few who haven't given up, who might be confident in fighting this puppet-like Sky Mist Shadow, most aren't very sure they can win.

After thousands of people gave up, three more stepped onto the battle platform. Their strength was significantly greater than that of ordinary high-level chaotic beings, but after a long and fierce battle, they were still unable to defeat the Sky Mist Shadow and had no choice but to give up.

After a long time—

"Next one, number 4933."

Many high-level chaotic beings were suddenly taken aback, realizing that the one who stepped onto the battle stage this time was actually a low-level chaotic being!
It was the white-haired man wearing an ice-carved mask, exuding a cold aura, with three servants of high-level chaotic beings following behind him.

The advanced chaotic beings couldn't help but be somewhat surprised.

So many advanced chaotic beings have given up, yet this young master of unknown origin hasn't given up yet?

Lin Qing glanced at it and a hint of interest arose in her heart.

With his original strength, although he was confident of passing the preliminary selection, he was not entirely certain of success without using the Great Extinction of the Illusionary World.

Qi Chuanyan, the youngest son of Marquis Qi Chuan, seems quite confident?

As the white-haired man wearing the ice sculpture mask flew into the battle arena, he stretched out his hand, and a dark scabbard immediately appeared in his hand. In an instant, the entire battle arena was covered with endless frost, and long swords like ice crystals were formed from the scabbard, turning into boundless cold light, flying everywhere.

"A natal treasure, a supreme secret technique? And the bloodline seems to be an icy-type source of power?" Lin Qing raised an eyebrow slightly.

"What does Mr. Jialin think of Qi Chuanyan's strength?"

The old man from Jiujian smiled and said, "I heard that Marquis Qichuan has put a lot of effort into cultivating this youngest son. He has mastered the divine skills of the ice and cold attribute, combined with the natal treasure of the ice and cold nature. He has also learned two supreme secret techniques of the ice element. In addition, his bloodline is the rare second-generation bloodline of the 'Ice Abyss Mystic,' and his innate secret techniques are also extremely powerful. The three of them are almost perfectly combined and stacked. Even His Majesty the Ice Emperor and Emperor Juexian are quite impressed. In the end, it was Emperor Juexian who took the initiative to speak and accept him as a disciple."

“Indeed, it’s quite good.” Lin Qing nodded slightly, watching the battle on the stage. “It’s a pity that his divine skill is neither a combination divine skill nor a set of supreme treasures. This aspect is obviously weak. Otherwise, he wouldn’t need to slowly accumulate the power of ice and freeze time and space. He could directly achieve the effect of freezing time and space with just the divine skill and supreme treasures. The explosive power would be much stronger than it is now.”

Uncle Jiujian chuckled and said, "Combining divine skills is not just about comprehension; it also requires special talents, or rather, a certain insight into the rules of the universe. The higher the realm, the more important this is."

He sighed, "Some geniuses who can create combined divine skills using spatial rules can no longer create combined divine skills using the mysteries of time and space after transcending the limitations of spacetime. There's nothing we can do about it."

Suddenly, Xiao Yingbo, who was sitting lazily to the side, let out a sneer, glanced at Lin Qing with a slightly mocking look, and said, "Ignorant brat, the divine skill you created at most contains only a few mysteries of space and time. Do you really think that it's so simple to integrate the perfect mysteries of space and time into a combined divine skill?"

Lin Qing was surprised that this person would actually speak. He glanced at him and said, "It seems that Uncle Xiaoying spent a lot of time back then?"

“Indeed, it took a full fifty million years to succeed,” said Uncle Xiaoying with a hint of sarcasm.

This is an achievement he is quite proud of.

Back then, he only took fifty million years to integrate the perfect mysteries of spacetime into his combined divine skill, which shocked a great number of people. In the history of the King Realm, there were only a small number of people who could do it faster than him.

"Fifty million years?"

Lin Qing, as if she hadn't noticed, nodded and said, "That is indeed difficult."

Xiao Yingbo's face darkened, and he snorted coldly, too lazy to say anything more.

In his opinion, this kid had no chance of becoming a high-level chaotic being, nor did he have a chance to compete with him in speed.

Listening from the side, Uncle Jiujian thought to himself that this genius of unknown origin was indeed arrogant, so he could only transmit his voice and say, "Mr. Jialin, you must find an opportunity to leave as soon as possible after the preliminary selection is over."

"Don't worry, Uncle Jiujian, I know what I'm doing," Lin Qing transmitted his voice.

On the battle platform, frost and snow stretched for millions of miles, and countless ice crystals fell like rain. Qi Chuanyan continuously accumulated icy power, freezing time and space time and time again, and destroying a small amount of life essence of the sky's misty shadows. Several hours passed before the battle finally ended.

The fog in the sky completely dissipated.

The first person to pass the preliminary selection has finally appeared.

Under the gaze of the assembled high-level chaotic beings, Qi Chuanyan left the battle platform somewhat wearily and returned to his original position.

While many of the higher beings were astonished, they also felt somewhat ashamed of their own inferiority.

Even a lowly chaotic being passed the preliminary selection, while they could only give up.

But they also understood that there was nothing they could do about it.

Only after a large number of trial participants chose to give up or failed did a few high-level chaotic beings who had passed the pre-selection appear sporadically.

During this time, the beautiful girl with a snake tail at the bottom also entered the arena. Her strength was slightly inferior to Qi Chuanyan's. She fought with Tianqiong Wuying for a long time but failed to deplete Tianqiong Wuying's life force and soon chose to admit defeat.

This celestial mist can gather and disperse without form, and can instantly transform into a mist shape and merge into spacetime. It has a strong ability to protect oneself, and it is indeed difficult to deal with if one is not strong enough.

Soon, several peak Chaos beings under the command of Xinglian Hou, including Jiujian Bo, also stepped onto the battle stage.

As peak-level beings, their strength was indeed far greater than that of ordinary chaotic beings, and each of them easily crushed the Sky Mist Shadow with a single move.

With a casual slap, Xiao Yingbo unleashed a terrifying power that enveloped the million-mile battle arena, instantly annihilating Tianqiong Wuying and shocking the entire audience.

Another moment passed.

"number 41555."

As yet another person gave up, the silver-haired old man beside the battle platform immediately announced the next sequence number in order, while looking at the waiting area with a slightly curious gaze.

There was no sign of giving up.

Amidst a sea of ​​gazes, Lin Qing stood up.

(End of this chapter)
