Transcending Godhood: I Extract Keywords and Crush the Gods

The crimson cracks healed in the void.

Blood Raven slumped down on the core altar of his divine realm.

His raven feather cloak was torn to shreds, and his emaciated body was covered in cracks.

The power of the end lingered at the wound, constantly eroding his life force.

Ignoring his injuries, Blood Raven swiftly swooped down towards the center of the altar.

"Deviation! Immediately deviate from the original coordinates!"

Blood Raven placed his hands on the crystal ball and poured divine power into it.

The entire divine realm trembled, randomly jumping within the sea of ​​dark matter.

He directly erased the spatial coordinates, and even went so far as to detonate the outer defensive formations to conceal his movement trajectory.

Blood Raven collapsed onto the altar, utterly exhausted, only when the coordinates of the divine realm finally deviated from their original void quadrant.

He was panting heavily, his dried-out face twitching uncontrollably.

too frightening.

He recalled the roots and branches that surged up from the ground, and his soul still trembled.

Lin Yuan, that kid, is only at the sixth level of the demigod realm, so why does he possess a legendary companion?

Moreover, it's not just any ordinary legendary creature.

It is a plant-based overlord that is rooted in the entire plane and completely bound to the origin of the divine realm!

That all-encompassing final force field, and the method of extracting life force regardless of level, completely violates the common sense of the divine world.

For ten years, Blood Raven wandered the chaotic star system, killing, robbing, and devouring planes.

In order to cultivate a legendary beast king or blood disciple, he poured billions of lives into the furnace, enduring until the divine fire became unstable, but still failed to reach that insurmountable barrier.

"This kid must have powerful backers... The higher-ups at Starry Sky University must have stuffed some forbidden item into his divine realm."

Blood Raven gritted his teeth and forced himself to find a reasonable explanation.

He didn't believe that a freshman could cultivate such a monster on his own.

As long as we survive this ordeal, as long as we hide our coordinates.

"Luckily, they escaped." Blood Raven gritted his teeth, secretly relieved.

Once he returns to his own territory, with the support of his five billion followers, he can regain his peak in a few months at most.

Even the most unpredictable gods cannot act without any clues.

To pinpoint him, this ever-moving grain of sand, from among billions of stars.

Just as he was figuring out how to recover his strength.

High in the heavens above the divine realm, a crack appeared in the thick clouds.

Lin Yuan, with his hands in his pockets, stepped out of the crack and hovered steadily in mid-air, surveying the vast expanse of land and sky.

You wouldn't know unless you looked, and only then did you realize it.

The scene of this divine realm below completely overturned Lin Yuan's preconceived notions about "demonic cultivators".

He originally thought that the divine realm of a demon cultivator should be a place of mountains of corpses, seas of blood, and piles of white bones.

Everywhere were gloomy caves and sects filled with the aura of bloodlust.

But what comes into view are rows of modern cities.

Skyscrapers are everywhere, and crisscrossing asphalt roads run through the city, with a constant flow of traffic.

Eighty percent of the area is covered by these highly urbanized buildings, while the remaining twenty percent is a wilderness reserve where various ferocious beasts are kept.

"Mechanical ascension?" Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow.

Those who build their divine realm in a modern urban style are usually deities who are mechanical in nature.

Blood Raven's subordinates are clearly a group of extreme demonic cultivators who manipulate blood, bones, and poison, so how did they manage to create such a set of infrastructure?

Lin Yuan closed his eyes, and his immense spiritual power spread like mercury, covering an area of ​​tens of thousands of kilometers.

A few seconds later, he opened his eyes, a look of realization flashing in them.

Look away.

This is a giant flesh and blood factory disguised in the guise of modern civilization.

The towering skyscrapers are all covered with "Yin Gathering Array" and "Blood Drawing Array" engraved in their load-bearing pillars.

Hundreds of millions of people live inside, and the stale air they exhale and the emotions and desires they emit are all drained away by the array at the bottom of the building.

It gathers into pure demonic energy and is delivered to the demonic cultivators in seclusion at the top level.

In the distance, a modern hospital, with delivery rooms connected to a slaughterhouse assembly line in the basement.

Newborn babies undergo spiritual root testing immediately.

Those with talent for cultivating immortality will be given a number and sent to school.

Those without talent were simply tossed into the basement via a chute.

The assembly line machine will crush mortal flesh and bones to extract the purest innate essence and blood to refine the "Minor Blood Rejuvenation Pill".

The remaining bone fragments and flesh scraps were dried, ground into powder, loaded onto trucks, and transported to the outskirts to be fed as fodder to the rotting bone spiders and hellhounds.

Schools are brainwashing camps and breeding grounds for treacherous individuals.

Students are grouped into classes based on their qualifications.

Those with poor aptitude who cultivate the "Blood Burning and Bone Transformation Technique" will overdraw their lifespan in exchange for short-term combat power, and will be directly incorporated into the cannon fodder army after reaching adulthood.

Those with good aptitude can cultivate core techniques and enjoy the best resources, but they must periodically devour their fellow students to maintain their cultivation progress.

In the entire divine realm, no superfluous resources were wasted.

Birth, aging, illness, and death are all incorporated into an industrialized operating system.

The benefits of this model are obvious.

Resource output is stable, and losses are minimized.

Without the need for deities to expend energy on management, the entire society can complete the closed loop of reproduction, selection, cultivation and recycling on its own.

"This guy is a real talent," Lin Yuan muttered to himself.

As expected, the world of gods is full of talented people; they can even produce this kind of thing.

I don't know the specific side effects, but they are probably a lack of understanding of the laws and a short lifespan.

As for anger and pity, Lin Yuan felt none of it, after all, he was born much earlier than this guy.

……

On the altar below, Blood Raven finally came to his senses.

He looked up at Lin Yuan in the distance, his eyes darting around. His divine sense swept across the space around Lin Yuan again and again.

There is no spatial passage.

There were no endlessly surging black and gold branches, and no hundreds of millions of mad dog relatives.

Lin Yuan was truly alone.

After a brief moment of astonishment, ecstasy welled up in Blood Raven's heart.

He stood up, his hunched back slowly straightening, and his listless aura surged once more.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Blood Raven burst into loud laughter, a laugh tinged with the madness of someone who had survived a catastrophe.

"Kid, I admit your divine realm is sinister, and your retinue is monstrous."

"If you hide in your turtle shell, there's really nothing I can do with you."

"But how dare you come to my territory all by yourself?"

"Do you really think that the majesty of a seventh-level demigod is something a mere sixth-level rookie like you can challenge?!"

Blood Raven stepped off the altar and appeared directly above the city, confronting Lin Yuan across the distance.

In the world of gods, there are three major watersheds in the demigod stage.

The third transformation reshapes the divine body.

Seven transformations, condensing the embryonic form of divinity.

The realm of a demigod at the sixth level is merely a projection of the laws in the real world.

Upon reaching the seventh stage, divine power liquefies and crystallizes, and the laws are completely solidified.

The nascent form of divinity is the cornerstone of the future divine kingdom.

Having the rudiments of a godhood, one's soul merges with the laws.

Even if the physical body is blasted into dust, as long as the nascent divine essence remains intact, a single drop of blood can reshape the true form.

Under the suppression of the nascent godhood, the sixth-level domain was like a paper lantern, easily punctured.

Blood Raven raised his right hand, and a bright crimson light shone from his palm.

A blood-red crystal covered with fine cracks slowly emerged in his palm.

This is the prototype of his divine nature, a crystallization of the fusion of the laws of blood and the laws of withered bones.

After the crystal appeared, the sky over the entire divine realm turned dark red.

In the city below, millions of mortals and low-level demonic cultivators simultaneously coughed up blood.

Their vital energy was forcibly extracted by the nascent divine essence, forming a sky full of blood mist that gathered around the Blood Raven.

"Remember not to be so arrogant in your next life!"

Blood Raven let out a sinister laugh, and the nascent divine form burst forth with crimson light.

"Blood Hell·Ten Thousand Bones Withered!"

The sky collapsed.

A gigantic, blood-red bone claw, composed of millions of human bones and covering an area of ​​100,000 meters, tore through the clouds and slashed down at Lin Yuan.

The fingertips of the bone claws were enveloped in a rich law of withering.

Wherever it passes, space is annihilated.

The power of this strike has completely transcended the boundaries of any domain; it is the absolute crushing of the material world by the laws of reality.

Faced with this deadly attack that could instantly kill an ordinary sixth-rank cultivator, Lin Yuan didn't even pull his hand out of his pocket.

He watched the blood crows rush towards him, his heart completely unmoved.

This idiot, he's hallucinating while trying to escape for his life.

They really think they dared to chase after me alone? They're just asking to be killed.

"Suppress me?" Lin Yuan slightly raised his eyelids.

He raised his right hand, joined his index and middle fingers together, and made a light stroke in the air.

"Arrival".

An aura, even more ancient and vast than the nascent form of the Blood Raven's divine essence, filled with endless destructive intent, erupted behind Lin Yuan.

[The Great Void Annihilation - The Mother Tree of the End] Phantom Projection!

Although this phantom was only ten thousand meters tall, the rank suppression it emitted plunged the entire world into deathly silence.

On the tree trunk, the metallic face slowly opened its eyes.

Within those cracked eyes, the starry sky collapsed, and a void storm raged.

Just one glance.

Blood Raven felt as if his soul was being seized by a giant hand.

The crimson divine spark in his palm emitted a light that dimmed instantly.

The crimson bone claws, covering an area of ​​100,000 meters, paused in mid-air.

Under the gaze of the mother tree's illusory image, the law of withering melted and evaporated like snow under the scorching sun.

"That's impossible!"

The blood crow let out a shriek.

How could a nascent godhood be suppressed by a mere phantom? This is the crystallization of the very essence of the laws!

Little did he know that the characteristics of the Mother Tree of the End were a crushing force at the level of the soul.

Before Blood Raven could recover from the shock of his soul battle...

With a thought, Lin Yuan's dark gold divine power began to surge.

"Expand the domain."

Centered on Lin Yuan, a gray-white force field with a radius of 100 meters quietly unfolded.

【The End and the Origin】.

The boundary between life and death is forcibly erased within this small space.

Within the gray-white area, spatial fluctuations occurred.

A giant hand, covered in flowing gold and as thick as a mountain, reached out from the void and pressed down on the edge of the domain.

Then, a terrifying figure, over a thousand meters tall and with eight arms, squeezed into this world.

tyrant.

Upon reaching the Epic tier, the Tyrant's form has completely transcended the realm of ordinary creatures.

It's like a demon god crawling out of the abyss.

"roar--!"

The tyrant let out a roar that shattered the heavens.

It didn't pause at all, with all eight arms swinging simultaneously.

The [Titan] and [Shadow] domains, enhanced by Lin Yuan's gray-white force field, were pushed to their limits by the Tyrant.

Centered on the Blood Raven, the space within a radius of several thousand meters rapidly collapsed.

Half of it is an absolute gravitational black hole.

The terrifying gravity pulled at the Blood Raven's body, crushing the protective blood-red light on its surface layer by layer.

The other half is a strange, shadowy world.

Countless tentacles and claws formed from pure shadow laws stretched out from the void.

It tightly bound Blood Raven's limbs and neck, even piercing into his nascent divine defenses.

The tyrant's attack was unable to directly kill Blood Raven, who possessed the rudiments of a seventh-level godhood.

However, this extreme dual law restriction firmly imprisoned the Blood Raven in mid-air.

"Get out of here! Get out of here!"

Blood Raven frantically channeled its divine power, attempting to break free from the tentacles' restraints.

The nascent godhood continuously released blood-red light, severing one shadowy tentacle after another. However, the suppression from the phantom of the demonic tree made it extremely difficult for him to move forward.

But the real killer move has already arrived.

Lin Yuan flashed, traversing space and appearing directly in front of Blood Raven.

A gray-white area with a radius of 100 meters enveloped the Blood Raven.

Upon entering the realm of [End and Origin], Blood Raven's pupils suddenly contracted.

He felt an unprecedented fear.

In this gray and white world, his nascent seventh-stage divine nature lost absolute control over life.

The Law of the End was like an invisible blade, piercing into his soul.

The Origin Law is like a greedy vortex, forcibly extracting energy from his body and converting it into nourishment for the gray-white force field.

Blood Raven clearly sensed that its life force was declining in an irreversible way.

Rebirth through a drop of blood?

Not a single drop of blood will be left here.

Once someone dies, the law of the end will completely erase all traces of their existence.

"No...no!"

Under the pressure of being infinitely close to death, Blood Raven's desire to survive reached its peak.

The decisiveness honed during his ten years on the run saved his life at that moment.

He was acutely aware that he was under the oppression of this terrifying phantom, bound by this eight-armed monster, and within this realm that stripped him of life and death.

To resist head-on would be certain death.

Even if he is a demigod at the seventh level.

"burst!"

A resolute glint flashed in Blood Raven's eyes.

Without hesitation, he detonated his physical body, which he had cultivated diligently for many years.

boom!

The demigod's seventh-stage physical body exploded, spewing out an extremely dense storm of crimson blood.

The force of the self-destruction forcibly shook off the tyrant's shadow tentacles and tore a tiny crack in the gravitational black hole.

The nascent divine form, carrying the remnants of the Blood Raven's soul, fled hastily into the rift.

This time, he didn't even dare to utter a harsh word.
