Lawful Tyrant

Chapter 358 A Terrifying Blow!
"Another lowly chaotic being, and he still hasn't given up?"

"Could this person have also passed the preliminary selection?"

"How could someone targeted by Lord Xiaoying be weak?"

"How come all these low-level chaotic beings are so abnormally powerful..."

The advanced chaotic beings in the waiting area couldn't help but sigh in amazement.

Meanwhile, Uncle Jiujian pondered to himself, "If Mr. Jialin wants to avoid Uncle Xiaoying, it would be best to lose in the preliminary rounds and then find an opportunity to escape after Uncle Xiaoying participates in the trial."

However, he didn't think Lin Qing looked like the type to admit defeat willingly.

Xiao Yingbo watched coldly from the side.

"This kid knows about the Great Extinction of the Illusory World. Judging from the way he attacked, he should have a chance to pass the preliminary selection..."

"If he deliberately admits defeat and avoids me, then my clone will participate in the trial. I will find an opportunity to seal Lin Qing and turn him into a god. That will complete the mission, but we must be careful of the trouble that follows..."

Xiao Yingbo narrowed his eyes slightly.

He must find an opportunity to seal Lin Qing in a reasonable and justifiable way.

Otherwise, if it arouses the vigilance of His Majesty the Light King of the Heavenly Light Divine Kingdom, and he takes precautions in advance, the Light King can suppress him with a single thought from afar, leaving him no chance to seal him!
Even if Yu Gong gave him a feather from the current World God, it was for the Eternal God Blood to use, so that the Eternal God Blood and its related future lines could completely avoid the Light King's observation. At the same time, by using the power of that feather, he could hinder the Light King's descent for a short time, thus giving Lin Qing a chance to become a god.

Therefore, he had to make his actions as reasonable as possible to avoid being suppressed by the Light King in advance.

“Sealing Lin Qing is quite simple…”

Xiao Yingbo pondered to himself, "The troublesome thing is dealing with the King of Light afterwards... I'm afraid I'll have no choice but to ask my grandfather for help."

His grandfather was the master of the Lord of the Myriad Seas Divine Kingdom!

Although his grandfather was not as powerful as the ruler of the Myriad Seas Divine Kingdom, the master-disciple relationship made it easy for him to ask the ruler of the Myriad Seas Divine Kingdom to intervene.

The three rulers of the divine kingdoms, as leaders of the King Realm, each had their own ambitions, just like the three gods of the Void God Clan. They each controlled the origins of the past, future, and present universes, transforming them into divine kingdoms, and were on equal footing.

As long as the ruler of the Myriad Seas Divine Kingdom agrees, he can still be protected even if he kills the personal disciple of His Majesty the Light King.

Just like that Lord Yu.

However, Yu Gong's background is that of the Primordial God Emperor of the Primordial Divine Kingdom.

The Primordial Divine Emperor and His Majesty the King of Light had many conflicts. Although they were both leaders of civilizations, the three leaders seemed to have some kind of inherent and irreconcilable contradictions. They had been fighting for many years, and their grudges were hard to clear.

"No matter what, let's cripple Lin Qing first. Even if His Majesty the King of Light kills me in anger, my grandfather can revive me."

Xiao Yingbo coldly watched Lin Qing walk onto the battle stage, "However, he's just a little guy from the Void Sea, not even a high-level chaotic being, and hasn't even become an apprentice yet. His Majesty the Light King shouldn't be taking him too seriously..."

Hundreds of billions of miles away, on that colossal stone pillar that towers into the sky, on the head of a crimson serpent coiled around the pillar, stands a figure.

It was none other than Xing Lianhou and the Devouring Flame Python.

He was gazing at the scene on the battle stage from afar, and said softly, "This Jialin actually possesses the Great Extinction of the Illusionary World. He's so outstanding. I wonder which ultimate being he is a disciple of."

"He seems to be cultivating the rules of the future," the crimson serpent, whose length was unknown, transmitted telepathically. "If he has a master, it's either His Majesty the King of Light or the ultimate being of another civilization, someone you can't afford to offend."

Xinglian Hou understood its meaning.

In the Realm of Kings, there is only His Majesty the Light King, the ultimate being who cultivates the rules of the future.

Either other civilizations possess the ultimate ability to cultivate the rules of the future.

"It seems that this Shadow Lord wants to kill him."

Marquis Xinglian had a headache. "If Jialin fails the preliminary selection, I can still protect him for a while according to the rules of the Xinglian Army. But... once he enters the selection trial and is killed by Uncle Xiaoying in the trial, that will be troublesome. It will be as if I gave Uncle Xiaoying a chance."

"Don't worry," the enormous Devouring Flame Python transmitted telepathically, "Even Jialin might not pass the preliminary rounds—"

"Think about it, apart from using the Illusionary World Extinction to kill the weak-willed Flameblood Elder, he has never fought against any high-level chaotic beings. The only information he has about his actions is that he dealt with Flameblood Elder's junior brother. It seems that his strength is just average."

It chuckled and transmitted its voice, "If this person is also very strong, why would he need to reveal such a trump card as the Great Extinction of the Illusionary World? As long as he shows enough strength, Lord Flameblood will naturally not dare to deal with him."

Xinglianhou frowned and said, "But once the Sky Mist Shadow Puppet is hit by the Willpower Secret Technique, its strength will be greatly affected."

The crimson serpent transmitted its voice: "Anyway, no one has used the secret technique of will since. Nobody knows that a puppet like the Sky Mist Shadow can be affected by the secret technique of will. It's not too late for me to secretly send down a wisp of will to possess that puppet. With my will that is deep in the river of time, his Illusionary World Annihilation will not affect me in the slightest."

"Alright."

Marquis Xinglian nodded slightly, "Try not to let him pass the preliminary selection. I can still protect him for a while and give him a chance to avoid Uncle Xiaoying."

The crimson serpent coiled around the stone pillar and immediately transmitted its voice, "Watch this."

……

After Lin Qingfei entered the space-time where the battle platform was located, the world before him suddenly opened up. This battlefield, spanning a full million miles, was more than enough for fighting.

Just then, endless thick fog surged out and quickly condensed into a single, crystal-clear droplet of water.

Then, the void transformed into a blurry human-shaped stream of water.

"Shhh!!"

The humanoid stream of water immediately flew towards Lin Qing at a terrifying speed, transforming into a nearly invisible line of water light.

"The Great Extinction of the Illusory World!"

With a thought, Lin Qingxin instantly formed a vast and illusory world, which directly crushed the beam of water.

however--

The ray of water did not slow down in the slightest, as if the Great Extinction of the Illusory World had no effect whatsoever.

"It's no use?"

Lin Qing raised an eyebrow slightly. "Don't puppet creatures also have their own will? How can a puppet's will be this strong?"

He originally thought that as long as the Great Extinction of the Illusionary World weakened the strength of this Sky Mist Shadow Puppet, he could easily kill it by making a move and pass this preliminary selection.

It seems we still need to reveal some of our strength.

"Perfect, let's test the World God I just created..."

Lin Qing stood motionless, watching the rapidly approaching sliver of water, and casually stretched out one hand, swatting it downwards as if swatting away a fly.

"boom!!!"

A dazzling golden light suddenly burst forth, causing space and time to tremble and distort. A colossal hand, tens of thousands of miles long, materialized out of thin air and crashed down with the vast spacetime power within the battle arena!
That sliver of water seemed to sense a great crisis.

In an instant, time within the battle arena began to slow down, but faced with such immense power, the influence on spacetime became extremely low, and the flow of time only slowed down slightly.

As that enormous, majestic hand descended, space and time seemed to transform into a series of vortexes, completely blocking the path of this ray of water.

The shimmering water instantly transformed into mist, attempting to merge into the depths of time and space.

However, under the deliberate influence of that giant hand, spacetime was constantly solidifying, making it difficult for the puppet, which had turned into a mist shape, to integrate into spacetime.

Immediately afterwards, the giant hand crashed down!
"boom!!"

In a mere instant, everything within the battle arena, except for Lin Qing, was completely annihilated.

Lin Qing withdrew his hand again, and the giant hand that had covered a range of 100,000 miles disappeared without a trace, and everything returned to silence.

The misty shadows in the sky have completely vanished into nothingness.

Amidst stunned gazes, Lin Qing gracefully departed from the battle platform. "This...how is this possible?"

"He actually... he actually killed the Sky Mist Shadow Puppet with a single blow?"

"This is absolutely impossible..."

"He's not even a high-level chaotic being, how could he be so strong?"

"Even top-tier experts with such high cultivation levels and second-generation bloodlines can only kill Tianqiong Wuying in one strike. How did he manage to do that?"

"A lowly chaotic being... This is simply unbelievable..."

At this moment, the many advanced chaotic beings were completely stunned. The shock in their hearts was indescribable, and their eyes were filled with disbelief. They could hardly believe their eyes.

Even if a disciple of an ultimate being like the youngest son of Marquis Qichuan is powerful enough to defeat the Sky Mist Shadow, he would still be slowly worn down to death!
Even so, it was enough to shock them.

But at least they can accept it.

But now all of this is completely beyond their comprehension and understanding.

Among the many high-level chaotic beings present, only a few of the most powerful chaotic beings noticed something amiss.

"Mr. Jialin, you've broken through?"

Seeing Lin Qing return to the waiting area and sit down, Uncle Jiujian couldn't help but ask telepathically.

He had already reached the pinnacle, and was only one step away from fusing the complete spacetime rules, so he could barely deduce this from the spacetime power that Lin Qing had just unleashed.

Although Lin Qing's divine body aura is not that of a high-level chaotic being's world body, as long as he masters a perfect spacetime mystery, he can invoke the power of the spacetime river.

However, the river of time and space is all-encompassing and too hidden to leave a trace, so only someone of his level could barely discern some traces.

"Yes, he only recently broke through." Lin Qing nodded slightly.

At this time, his inner world had only undergone most of its transformation, and its foundation was not yet truly stable, so he naturally could not pre-draw upon the world's physical form.

However, he had already pre-emptively drawn upon the world god who contained the mysteries of perfect spacetime.

This kind of purely technical skill can be unleashed once you grasp its essence.

"Even if he broke through, it would still be inconceivable that he could annihilate the Sky Mist Shadow in a single blow..."

Uncle Jiujian was still somewhat incredulous. "Could it be that the will of this Sky Vault Mist Shadow was relatively weak, and its strength had decreased too much, so it was killed by Mr. Jialin in one blow?"

Even if the mysteries of spacetime are perfected, simply drawing upon the power of the river of spacetime only elevates the level by one.

He could tell that Lin Qing's attack just now was not at full strength. This kind of divine body technique only revealed one palm, and the subtlety of the technique was hidden. Obviously, only a portion of the power was used.

Without revealing the supreme secret technique, he killed the Sky Mist Shadow with a single blow using only a portion of the divine power of the divine skill.

As the ultimate disciple, Qi Chuanyan used all his divine skills, innate treasures, supreme secret techniques, and bloodline talents to the fullest extent, barely managing to wear down Tianqiong Wuying.

Even if Qi Chuanyan were a level stronger, it would be unlikely that he could kill Tianqiong Wuying in one blow!

Therefore, he suspected that the puppet's independent will was relatively weak and it was greatly affected by the Great Extinction of the Illusionary World, which is why it was killed by Lin Qing in one blow.

"The Great Extinction of the Illusory World?"

Lin smiled but didn't explain anything.

Only he knew best that the Great Extinction of the Illusory World had served no purpose whatsoever.

But with the power of the transformed world god, coupled with the power of the river of time he has drawn upon, even a casual strike is far more powerful than before.

This is before he has transformed into the World God Body; once his internal world stabilizes...

"One strike? He actually broke through?"

The ugly face of Uncle Xiaoying beside him also showed some surprise. He frowned slightly and glanced at Lin Qing, "It seems you just broke through not long ago?"

Immediately, he stopped caring: "So what if he broke through? It's obvious that it's because the will of the Sky Vault Mist Shadow is too weak. Otherwise, how could he have been so easily killed by a little guy who doesn't even have a World God Body?"

As for divine skills, he hadn't even considered them.

After all, almost all powerful individuals, after breaking through to the next level, first comprehend a suitable divine body for the world, and then spend a long time before they can comprehend a perfect divine skill.

The difficulty levels of these two are worlds apart.

"It's good that you broke through," Xiao Yingbo thought to himself. "Letting you enter the trial gives me a better chance to seal you away!"

He was the pinnacle of peak experts. Even if Lin Qing's breakthroughs in all aspects were stable, he was confident that he could seal Lin Qing, let alone now.

The next test taker entered, but no one cared anymore.

Almost all the participants were unable to recover from the shock.

The white-haired man wearing the ice sculpture mask, 'Qi Chuan Yan', also looked at Lin Qing in disbelief, muttering, "A low-level chaotic being... can be this strong?"

……

Among those who witnessed this battle, the most shocked were none other than Xinglian Hou and Tunyan Python.

"Kid... am I seeing things?"

The Flame-Devouring Python seemed to freeze, coiling around the stone pillar in a daze: "The divine skill he just used... did it incorporate the perfect mysteries of space and time?"

His wisp of will possessed the Sky Mist Shadow, so he naturally knew best that the Sky Mist Shadow was not affected by the Great Extinction of the Illusionary World.

The opponent relied entirely on brute force to instantly crush the Sky Mist Shadow!

After a long silence, Xing Lianhou took a deep breath and slowly said, "Is there any other possibility for a realm that can influence the changes in space and time?"

He stared incredulously at Lin Qing, who was hundreds of billions of miles away. "Moreover, he must have perfected the mysteries of future vision, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to block all of the Sky Mist Shadow's methods of time-space escape in advance. Moreover... the Sky Mist Shadow is so invisible that only a perfected future vision can see through the traces of time and space!"

He also knew some powerful individuals who cultivated the rules of the future. When one first entered the realm of future vision, one could only see static images, and only after achieving a minor level of mastery could one see dynamic images.

However, once you encounter a hidden and traceless existence like the Sky Mist Shadow, only perfect future vision can see through it and make a prediction!

"What kind of freak is this?"

A colossal Flame-Devouring Python, hundreds of billions of miles long, coiled on the stone pillar, staring intently at Lin Qing in the distance. "He hasn't even formed a World God Body yet, and he's already comprehended a perfect divine technique? What's going on?"

“That’s really outrageous,” said Xinglianhou. “I suspect that he had already conceived and envisioned a divine skill suitable for perfecting the mysteries of the universe. Although it was just a hypothetical theory, it just happened to fit. So after he broke through, he deduced it and found that there was no problem, and thus mastered this perfect divine skill.”

He took a deep breath. "Such a situation has indeed occurred in history, and it is truly unbelievable."

"How incredibly lucky is that?" The Devouring Flame Python was still finding it hard to believe. "He doesn't even have a World God Body yet. I estimate his breakthrough time was not long ago, perhaps a few thousand or a few hundred years?"

Marquis Xinglian paused for a moment, realizing that this explanation was far-fetched.

But he couldn't believe that someone could comprehend a perfect divine skill in such a short time.

It's laughable that Uncle Xiaoying actually boasted to Jialin about how he had comprehended a perfect divine skill in fifty million years.
Xinglianhou took a deep breath and said, "No matter what, Xiaoyingbo and the others have probably misjudged him. They never expected that Jialin would have such strength."

He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "If Jialin is given enough time to break through his World God Body and Supreme Secret Technique, even if he is no match for that Shadow Lord, he will probably be able to protect himself."

The Devouring Flame Python slightly raised its massive head, looked at Star Refining Marquis, and transmitted its voice, saying, "Boy, you should think carefully. Jialin will likely belong to the Heavenly Light Divine Kingdom in the future, while Lord Xiaoying will belong to the Myriad Seas Divine Kingdom. If you side with either side, it means you're taking sides, and then..."

"I see."

Marquis Xinglian slowly said, "But the struggle between the three great divine kingdoms is gradually intensifying. I cannot remain on the fence forever; one day I will have to make a choice..."
