Lawful Tyrant

Chapter 435 Awakening the Lord of the Star Abyss
These ultimate beings, who were taken in by the Lord of the Immortal Realm, included those who cultivated the rules of the past, present, and future.

Although the one cultivating the future rules is the ruler of the divine kingdom, who cannot even kill the ruler of the immortal realm, Lin Qing, with his mental will that has reached the limit of endless chaos, can still forcibly destroy the consciousness and refine the universe within its body.

"Walk?"

The Lord of the Immortal Realm looked at Lin Qing.

"Let's go." Lin Qing nodded slightly. "Anyway, we can't kill the Mother of the Present World."

A powerful being who has merged with a pillar-level cosmic treasure can either be directly annihilated by their will or possess the strength to destroy the pillar-level cosmic treasure; otherwise, they are simply impossible to kill.

Even his mental will, which had reached the limit of endless chaos, could not be destroyed, so naturally there was no way to destroy it.

Without saying much, the Lord of the Immortal Realm immediately took Lin Qing and transformed into a rainbow, leaving the universe inside this pillar-level treasure.

Outside, the Heavenly Capital God Lord continues to unleash bolts of lightning to bind the Mother of the Present World.

"Success?"

Upon seeing the two emerge, the Heavenly Capital God Lord hurriedly inquired.

"Of course." The Lord of the Immortal Realm nodded slightly.

"Haha, good!" The Heavenly Capital God Lord couldn't help but laugh.

If successful, it means that humanity will soon have another pillar-level cosmic treasure!
With the combined strength of its master, Lin Qing, it will soon be able to open up a small universe, and then become the master of a divine kingdom, and even among the masters of divine kingdoms, it will be among the top in strength!
Just like the Great Lord of the Heart Abyss, with the strength of a high-level god kingdom ruler, wielding a pillar-level cosmic treasure, and with a mental will that touches the limit of endless chaos, he is enough to rival the Primordial True God.

"Good...good human Lin Qing..."

The Mother of the Present World looked at the three humans with a grim expression.

"What?" The Heavenly Capital God Lord's body was surrounded by endless lightning. "If you're not satisfied, then come and make a move. You can even call over the other two Mother Goddesses of your Mother River Clan."

The Mother of the World has one face filled with sorrow and the other with anger.

She knew very well that even if the three Mother Sovereigns gathered together, they would not be able to exert even a tenth of their strength in front of Lin Qing. Even if the three of them joined forces, they would only be easily beaten by the Immortal Realm Lord and the Heavenly Capital God Lord, and would only bring shame upon themselves.

If it weren't for Lin Qing, the three Mother Sovereigns could have completely suppressed the Immortal Realm Lord and the Heavenly Capital God Lord!
but……

Those terrifying mental and psychological tactics completely reversed the situation.

What she found hardest to accept was—

Lin Qing's future achievements and terrifying level are clearly visible to the naked eye, absolutely placing him at the strongest level below the World God Ancestor!
If this continues, Xingyuan's side will lose.

"Humph."

The Mother of the Present World snorted coldly and then transformed into a stream of light and fled.

The Immortal Realm Lord looked at Lin Qing and said, "Let's go back to the Ancient God of Origin now. You can complete the Pillar-level Universe Treasure in the Ancient God of Origin's temple. With your strength, you will be truly fearless."

"Okay." Lin Qing nodded slightly.

……

"Refine a pillar-level cosmic treasure?"

Inside the temple, the three Primordial True Gods with five-colored wings looked at Lin Qing with some surprise and couldn't help but ask, "The Three Universes, are they all together?"

"I've got them all." Lin Qing nodded.

"The message from Xingyuan says that your mental will has reached the limit of endless chaos?" asked the Ancient God of Origin.

"Just lucky," Lin Qing said. "I had some encounters in the Mind Realm."

“There’s no such thing as luck.” The Ancient God shook his head slightly and couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration, “Father God said that Mr. Lin Qing has extremely high talent in terms of mental will, and it is indeed true.”

He immediately said, "Mr. Lin Qing, please complete the pillar-level cosmic treasure in my temple. With the 3,800-fold time acceleration, it should be completed very soon. Even if the Lord of the Heart Abyss attacks, it will not be able to affect Mr. Lin Qing."

"Then I'll have to trouble the Ancient God." Lin Qing nodded slightly.

"It's a small matter. If Mr. Lin Qing succeeds sooner, he can also help my clan in this Chaos Battlefield," the Ancient God immediately said.

……

The deepest part of the Star Abyss.

The Star Abyss Eye, as vast as a miniature universe, seemed to be squinting as if taking a rest, the malice emanating from that sliver of a crack still lingering.

"what?"

The ancient progenitor suddenly looked at the incarnation of the Mother of the Present World, a terrifying ferocity flashing in his eyes: "Are you sure? Does Lin Qing really have a mental will that has touched the limit of endless chaos?"

The Mother of the Present World respectfully said, "When I face him, it is as if I am facing all the progenitors and the Great Lord of the Heart Abyss. There is no mistake about that."

“Then it seems to be true…” the Ancestor of Yanfu said softly.

The progenitor of the other shore frowned but did not speak.

The Ancient Ancestor took a deep breath, looked at the Other Shore Ancestor, and said in a deep voice, "Other Shore, is there still a chance to stop it?"

"How can we stop it?" The Ancestor of the Other Shore slowly shook his head and said, "Even with the protection of the Primordial True God, it is impossible to stop it. This time... the human race is destined to give birth to a powerhouse comparable to the Great Lord of the Heart Abyss."

"The balance has been disrupted."

Ancestor Yanfu frowned and said, "In the endless years to come, the Void God Clan will have a huge advantage on the Chaos Battlefield. As time goes on, the Cosmic Tree will grow faster and faster, and the Star Abyss will gradually be suppressed. In the end, we will probably be the ones who lose..."

The ancient progenitor's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Does this mean... we're just going to wait to fail like this?"

The progenitor of the Other Shore paused for a moment before saying, "Now we have three paths."

"First, continue exploring the Primal Realm and even travel to other main universes, trying to cultivate a new powerhouse comparable to Lin Qing and the Primal God," he said.

"How easy is that?" Ancestor Yanfu shook his head. "Besides, such powerful beings are miracles created by endless chaos, and cannot be cultivated at all."

The ancient ancestor nodded slowly.

As cosmic gods who created their divine kingdoms from the origin of the main universe, they had reached the limit of endless chaos in all aspects and held extremely high positions. Naturally, they understood just how difficult it was for the rulers of higher divine kingdoms to reach the limit of endless chaos.

Even after they seized the origin of the main universe and established their own divine kingdoms by using the Star Abyss to become cosmic gods, they were still some distance from their ultimate potential.

However, the source of the main universe that Xingyuan absorbed could at most only open up three divine kingdoms.

The cosmic origin that the Cosmic Tree draws upon can also only open up three divine kingdoms.

That's how the Three Realms Gods and the Three Primordial Ancestors came to be.

Do you want to create a powerful being who can reach the limit of endless chaos?
It’s too difficult.

"The second way."

The Ancestor of the Other Shore said, "While Xingyuan is not yet suppressed by the Cosmic Tree, we should launch the final battle as soon as possible, abandon our resistance to Xingyuan's assimilation, and do everything we can to help Xingyuan devour this main universe... In other words, we should abandon our goal of returning to the Ancestral Tree and only keep the goal of revenge."

“No,” the Ancestor of Yama immediately said. “Although we have been driven away from the Ancestral Tree, we are still its children.”

"impossible."

The ancient progenitor also said, "This Star Abyss is so terrifying that it must have devoured more than just one or two main universes. We have only barely managed to mobilize our power to fight the Cosmic Tree to this extent. If we could fully unleash our power, we could indeed win in the end, but we would probably be completely assimilated by the Star Abyss, becoming like its puppets. What would be the point of that?"

Although they did not know the true origin of the Cosmic Tree, they knew that countless years ago, the Cosmic Tree gave birth to the six original Void Gods, like their mother.

They led their entire race, along with the Cosmic Tree, to drift through the endless chaos in order to allow the Cosmic Tree to grow better.

Ultimately... they discovered this yet-to-be-born main universe.

Even though they lost the battle against the Three Realms Gods, were banished from the main universe, and were even forced to accept the assimilation of the Star Abyss, they still considered themselves children of the Cosmic Tree.

Compared to the main universe, they care more about the cosmic tree that gave birth to them!
"I can't give up. My biggest dream is to return to the ancestral tree."

The Ancestor of Jambudvipa frowned, looked at the Ancestor of the Other Shore, and asked, "What is the third method?"

The Ancestor of the Other Shore paused for a moment before saying, "If we truly want to return to the Ancestral Tree and seek revenge, then we must abandon the Star Abyss, and even face the possibility of becoming enemies with the Star Abyss."

"You mean..." The ancestor of Yanfu's eyes changed. "Yes."

The Ancestor of the Other Shore slowly raised his head, looking at the enormous Eye of the Abyss above, and said, "If we awaken this terrifying being sleeping deep within the Eye of the Abyss, with its formidable strength, we will most likely be able to win."

The ancient progenitor said in a low voice, "That situation... is probably beyond our control."

"This terrifying being is probably the true ruler of the Star Abyss, the Lord of the Star Abyss."

Ancestor Yanfu frowned as he looked at the Eye of the Star Abyss and said, "When we discovered the Star Abyss back then, it was probably under the control of this Lord of the Star Abyss that it devoured that main universe. If He hadn't been seriously injured and on the verge of death and fallen into a deep sleep, we wouldn't have been able to seal it away."

She took a deep breath. "Besides, He was sealed away by us, and might still be holding a grudge against us. Would He really help us?"

The Ancestor of the Other Shore paused for a moment, then said, "Although it is a seal, He has been slowly recovering over the countless years, and we have indeed helped Xingyuan a lot, haven't we?"

He looked at the ancient progenitor and the Jambudvipa progenitor, "We can try to communicate with them first, and once we're sure we can cooperate, then we can break the seal."

The ancient progenitor remained silent for a long time before saying, "Before we awaken the Lord of the Star Abyss, let's make some preparations and strengthen the seal as much as possible."

"I always feel uneasy."

The Ancestor of Yanfu said in a low voice, "This Lord of the Star Abyss is ultimately an existence we cannot control. Can we really cooperate with him?"

"Do we have any other choice?" The Ancestor of the Other Shore looked at her. "If this continues, we will almost certainly lose. In the end, we will not only be unable to return to the Ancestral Tree, but also unable to take revenge."

After another long silence.

"...I understand. Then let's prepare to awaken the Lord of the Star Abyss."

……

……

Chaotic battlefield.

Within a space-time confinement of the temple, Lin Qing sat cross-legged in the void, gazing at the three ultimate beings of the Mother River Clan whom he had chosen. With a flick of his finger, an invisible force penetrated their bodies, immediately beginning to peel away the inner universes of these three ultimate beings.

With his current mental fortitude, it is naturally easier for him to control it. As the primordial energy of the universe continues to flow out, the progress of refining the three universes is also extremely rapid.

In just tens of thousands of years, this pillar-level cosmic treasure has been completely completed.

"Finally, we have a publicly known pillar-level cosmic treasure."

Lin Qing looked at the pillar-level cosmic treasure with satisfaction, which seemed to be stacked like layers of rings. He then slightly activated its power and compared it with his own natal treasure.

In terms of power, it is about one-tenth the size of a natal treasure, and it is not as exquisite to control as a natal treasure.

A natal treasure can easily unleash a portion of the body of a world god, such as instantly condensing a finger, but a pillar-level cosmic treasure would find it much more difficult to achieve this.

"After leaving the Chaos Battlefield, it will be natural to open up a miniature universe."

Lin Qing smiled slightly.

Then he can rightfully become the ruler of the divine kingdom.

It would be best to continue accumulating power until the Mountain and Sea Realm transforms into a demigod-level civilization. Once he becomes the Lord of the Universe, it will be easier for him to mobilize the origin of the universe. Not only will his strength be greater in his home universe, but he will also be able to transform into the Lord of the strongest divine kingdom much faster.

Fortunately, the Star Abyss faction and the Void God Clan faction still have a chance to fight, and they may have to fight for countless more years.

In this way, he will have plenty of time to become the ruler of the universe.

……

"Success?"

After Lin Qing emerged from seclusion, the Immortal Realm Lord and the Heavenly Capital God Lord immediately led a large group of human powerhouses to greet him with some excitement.

The machine race had already heard about this and gathered around.

The Machine Race doesn't possess a single pillar-level cosmic treasure, and its peak combat power is insufficient; it has always been led by the Human Race.

"It's a success." Lin Qing smiled and nodded.

Although the human race's high command had long known that this step was unlikely to fail, it was nonetheless related to the future strongest fighting force of the human race, and they still couldn't help but feel excited and happy after confirming it.

Moreover, everyone knows that Lin Qing is an ultimate being of dual rules, and with a pillar-level cosmic treasure, it's a foregone conclusion that he will open up a small universe and become the master of a divine kingdom!

"Mr. Lin Qing."

The Primordial True God also came over with a group of True Gods from the Void God Clan, and said with a smile, "Congratulations."

"We have to thank the future God of the Realm for this," Lin Qing said calmly.

“Mr. Lin Qing is indeed outstanding.” The Ancient God of Origin smiled and said, “Mr. Lin Qing, would you be willing to accompany me to meet the Lord of Heart Abyss? You only need to resist his will and methods, and leave everything else to me.”

Lin Qing nodded and said, "Of course."

The smile on the face of the Ancient God became even brighter.

With his strength, he should have been able to defeat Lord Xinyuan. It was only because the other party's mental and spiritual methods were too terrifying that his strength dropped to less than 10%, which is why he was in such a precarious situation.

But as long as Lin Qing helps him block most of the willpower attacks and allows him to unleash most of his strength, he is confident that he can easily crush the Great Lord of Heart Abyss.

……

In the blink of an eye, 38,000 years have passed since the Chaos Battlefield opened.

As the Chaos Battlefield moved all living beings out of its interior, forces from both the Star Abyss Demon Clan and the Void God Clan also appeared outside the Chaos Battlefield.

"Humph."

The leader of Xingyuan's side was a figure shrouded in endless black mist, within which illusory universes appeared and disappeared, none other than the Great Lord Xinyuan.

Behind him were the Star Abyss Lords and powerful figures from the Mother River Clan, Star Beast Clan, and Origin Clan.

"Human race..."

Lord Xinyuan glanced coldly at Lin Qing of the Void God Clan, and said nothing more. Like a star abyss, it quietly spread out, splitting open a huge crack and emitting a malicious star abyss aura.

Immediately afterwards, Lord Xinyuan led his entourage back to the Star Abyss through the Star Abyss Crevice.

"Mr. Lin Qing."

The Ancient God smiled as he looked at Lin Qing. "Thanks to you this time, Lord Xinyuan knew he was no match for us and didn't even dare to fight us head-on. That's why our clan was able to obtain so many rare treasures. In addition to the share of these treasures, our clan's Father God is willing to reward you with an extra 500,000 merits, for a total of 2.4 million merits. What do you think?"

"Thank you very much then." Lin Qingqing nodded slightly.

at this time--

"Ok?"

Lin Qing's expression suddenly changed, and she turned to look at the Star Abyss Crevice that was closing continuously.

"What's wrong?" asked the Ancient God of Origin, puzzled.

"……nothing."

Lin Qing stared expressionlessly at the mended Star Abyss Crevice before saying, "It just feels like I'm being watched by some terrifying being."

“That’s natural.” Yuan Gu True God smiled and said, “Mr. Lin Qing caused Xing Yuan such a great loss, so Xing Yuan’s ancestor will naturally keep an eye on you. But Mr. Lin Qing doesn’t need to worry. My clan’s Father God is watching those three at all times, so there’s no way he will have the chance to attack us.”

Lin Qing nodded slightly and said nothing more.

However, as he looked at the line of scarlet text that the Entropy Reverser had given him, an ominous premonition filled his heart.

"Is this really the progenitor of the Star Abyss?"

"He's even more terrifying than the Primordial Ancients who descended upon the future..."
