Apocalypse: Become stronger by absorbing flames at the start; my name is the Flame Emperor.

A few minutes later, at the epicenter of the explosion, the light faded, revealing the scene inside.

Horrible!

Everyone was stunned by the sight.

Within a radius of one mile, there was no sign of life. All the trees were completely wiped out and crushed. A once thriving forest was instantly transformed into a wasteland.

At the very center, an enormous crater appeared, the earth itself having been shattered by that terrifying blow.

In the center of the deep pit, Lin Yu sat cross-legged, covered in blood.

His body was also crackling with terrifying lightning bolts, which flashed and raged from time to time.

"This kind of duel is too terrifying!" Everyone hidden inside the air wall was visibly moved.

The power generated by the Big Bang was beyond their imagination.

"Look, that's the magician! He's not dead yet!"

"He was covered in blood; he must be seriously injured."

Once everyone saw Lin Yu's appearance, they were all incredibly excited, as if they had been injected with adrenaline.

They are about to create a legend.

"Young Master, this is a good opportunity."

The S-level expert from the Xie family was also excited and eager to try, just waiting for Xie Haoran's order.

Xie Haoran clenched his fists, his emotions reaching a fever pitch.

However, he still maintained a degree of rationality, and it was this composure that allowed him to avoid many dangers.

"Wait a little longer!"

Although everyone was excited, no one dared to question Xie Haoran's order, and they continued to wait.

"Brother Yu..."

Looking at Lin Yu's appearance, Xie Yu'er suddenly had tears welling up in her eyes. She was about to rush over, but then she remembered something and stopped herself.

Born into a wealthy family, she had little say in many things.

In the center of the large pit.

"Heh, you're quite alert, not even coming out now."

Lin Yu scanned his surroundings with his spiritual power, but there was no movement. No one from the Xie family appeared, and he couldn't help but grin.

"Xie Haoran is truly a tortoise; he can even endure this."

Helpless, Lin Yu swayed and stumbled to his feet.

Ahead of him, the Holy Tiger of Light's aura had weakened considerably, but it still stood majestically atop the crater, looking down on Lin Yu with disdain.

"I didn't expect your mount to be so capable," Lin Yu said deliberately, pointing at the Holy Tiger of Light.

"roar--"

Sure enough, these words enraged the Holy Tiger of Light once again.

With a roar, it unleashed another bolt of lightning at Lin Yu.

This time, it didn't use much magic, after all, Lin Yu looked shaky and could be killed easily.

"Ultimate Technique: Roar of Flames"

Lin Yu also condensed a pillar of flame in his mouth and spewed it towards the lightning.

If you're going to fake a serious injury, at least make it look convincing, right?

"boom--"

This time, Lin Yu's body was blasted away again by the shockwave, and he spat out a mouthful of blood while still in the air.

Terrifying lightning crackled around his body.

"Young Master, now is our chance! He's been entangled by the mutated tiger's terrifying lightning and looks powerless to break free." The Xie family's S-rank expert almost shouted out in excitement upon seeing this.

He would never have imagined it.

The lightning currently enveloping Lin Yu was released by himself. He can now freely control the Holy Light Lightning.

Even the Holy Tiger of Light was deceived; he thought the lightning was unleashed by it.

"Bang—"

Lin Yu crashed heavily to the ground, the immense force cracking the earth beneath him and sending countless fragments of rock flying.

"Everyone, attack together!"

Just then, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the barren wasteland.

That was Xie Haoran's voice.

Lin Yu will never forget that voice.

"Xie Haoran, you've finally shown up?"

As Lin Yu lay in the crater, his eyes suddenly sharpened, and he suppressed his killing intent.

He's still waiting.

Xie Haoran is too cunning and treacherous. He possesses a talent for plundering, and currently has several powerful talents, which no one knows about.

To kill him, you need to make sure he's actually in sight.

"Boom!"

Countless rays of light descended from the sky, crashing down upon Lin Yu in the crater.

It was those evolved individuals with negative talents who made their move. Their attacks might not be physically damaging, but when combined with their negative traits, they were still terrifying.

For an instant.

All the light fell on Lin Yu.

Gravity, bleeding, sluggishness, lack of oxygen in the space, poison gas, freezing, swamps, dizziness, weakened strength... and so on.

All sorts of bizarre and wonderful talents were bestowed upon Lin Yu.

As the light fell upon him, Lin Yu clearly felt as if his entire body was being bound, and his magical power was rapidly decreasing.

Even for him, it would take 3 seconds to completely burn away all these negative states if he tried to break free.

"However, now that I have mastered the Holy Light Thunder, clearing these away will only be a matter of moments."

Lin Yu remained motionless; this was all part of his plan.

One of the characteristics of the Holy Light Thunder is that it can purify all negative statuses; otherwise, it wouldn't dare to be so arrogant.

You have to understand that for a super S-level powerhouse, 3 seconds is enough to go to hell and back.

"Hit! The magician has been hit by all the attacks!" someone shouted excitedly.

"Even for him, with such severe injuries, it would take at least half a minute to break free from the suppression of so many negative talents."

"Let's do it!"

Xie Haoran no longer concealed himself and appeared instantly along with two other S-level experts.

"The Ultimate Soul-Chasing Sword!"

The Xie family's S-rank expert unleashed a deadly move, aiming his attack directly at Lin Yu's collarbone.

If it hits, it can temporarily cripple Lin Yu.

"Ten Thousand Swords—Return to the Origin!"

Xie Haoran, however, was far less merciful. His guiding principle was: "Strike while the iron is hot!"

Therefore, this move was a peak technique at the Super S level, which was his first plundering talent: S-level object control.

Add a second S-level talent: Sharp Edge.

The combination of the two possesses world-destroying power, making it even more terrifying than Magneto in the movies.

In an instant!

Countless leaves and pebbles around him rose into the air, all glowing, as if they had been imbued with a sharp edge.

"Magician, die!"

With a loud shout, Xie Haoran caused all the objects he controlled to shoot towards Lin Yu with streaks of light.

As for the promise he made to his sister, he had long since forgotten about it.

Why not kill the enemy and keep him as a brother-in-law?

What are you thinking about?

If he activates his innate talent of plunder within half an hour of the magician's death, he can completely steal the magician's talent.

I said, your world has no light.

Guild Master Tianlong also spoke up, and as he did, a terrifying beam of light instantly descended.

At that moment, Lin Yu felt as if his eyes were being blinded by a powerful force, and he could see nothing at all.

"don't want!"

Just then, Xie Yu'er's heart-wrenching cries echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

She ran towards Lin Yu like a madwoman.
