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

"Don't make me say it a second time."

Lin Yu's voice grew increasingly cold.

"Okay, okay—"

This time, the man finally heard clearly and was overjoyed.

He hurriedly handed over all the crystal cores on his body and then ran away as fast as he could.

Anyway, at least I'm alive.

Moreover, his identity card is still valid, so he hasn't been eliminated yet.

Lin Yu held the three third-tier crystal cores in his hand and smiled wryly: "It seems that everyone has been reaped by the bets before the rules were implemented, and they are all penniless."

During the battle between the Temple and Eternal Day, at least 90% of the world's population bet on the Temple.

As a result, the temple lost, and that enormous wealth of crystal cores was directly swallowed up by the rules.

"The rules are so unfair!"

The accumulated wealth of 90% of the world's evolved beings—that's an incredibly terrifying fortune, and it was all harvested away in an instant.

No wonder they say casinos are the worst!

A sure-fire way to make money.

In a regulated space, many figures stood, each shrouded in divine radiance, like gods.

Their gazes pierced through layers of space, also fixed on the battlefield where a hundred nations clashed.

Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, many people's lips twitched slightly.

"Is this the lucky one?" a figure asked.

"That's him! This kid's got a really annoying way of talking, and that face of his is just as annoying. Should I go down and beat him up again?" A man surrounded by lightning said in a booming voice, eager to try.

"Stop fooling around, let's stick to the plan!"

"This is the last chance. If I can't succeed in this lifetime, then everything is over!"

Someone let out a soft sigh, their voice filled with helplessness and despair.

"Look, although the plan went wrong, this lucky guy's talent is not simple either. He has a talent for devouring. Once he grows up, he may very well stand above all the heavens."

"Yes, I misjudged him in my previous life..."

The murmurs gradually subsided.

Lin Yu watched the departing small-country evolvers, his eyes flashing.

He had a plan for not killing the other party.

These small-country evolvers have absolutely no impact on the final championship battle.

The only ones who can stop the Great Xia Kingdom from winning the championship are the strongest of the seven kingdoms.

"The fact that only 500 people remain in the first round means that more than 14,000 strong individuals will be eliminated."

Lin Yu squinted and thought carefully.

He had already made plans before he even came in.

If there are very few strong individuals from the seven countries among the 500 people remaining in the first round, then the final championship will be a sure thing.

"My goal is to eliminate as many of the strongest individuals from the seven kingdoms as possible in this first round, especially the more powerful ones."

A cold glint flashed in Lin Yu's eyes.

This was his plan: he would leave the strong small countries alone to fill their numbers.

First, find the other powerful figures from the seven kingdoms and eliminate them one by one.

"However, this Mind Stone requires constant mental energy to be channeled into it in order to capture information. Although this consumes a lot of mental energy, there's no other way."

Lin Yu thought for a moment, then separated a portion of his mental energy and left it directly in the Mind Stone, waiting for useful information to appear.

Half an hour later.

"Just how big is this world of rules?"

Lin Yu frowned slightly.

He couldn't even remember how far he had walked in the forest, and still hadn't seen a single person.

This is enough to demonstrate the vastness of this world; it is by no means a simple, small, secret space.

"Sizzle—"

Just then.

The energy he left in the Mind Stone emanated from it.

"Gentlemen, gentlemen, I am Takada. I am currently in a vast forest. Please respond if you hear me."

"I'm hiding at the top of the tallest tree in the forest, and I need someone to protect me."

At this moment, a man sat atop an incredibly enormous, towering tree.

He was covered in sweat; he was Takada, a gifted individual with a natural talent for mental power from the land of cherry blossoms.

He had been climbing trees for the past period of time.

It's hard to imagine that an A-level rated evolver took more than half an hour to climb the tree to the top.

This shows just how enormous this ancient tree is.

"Takada, I am Nakamura Ichiro. I am also in the forest, and I haven't seen a single ghost."

"I am Hoshino Kozai, and I am surrounded by forests."

"Takada, wait for us, we're on our way to you now."

……

Soon, Takada received seven or eight replies and immediately breathed a slight sigh of relief.

His strength is not great; in this battlefield, he would likely be no match for any other evolved being he encounters. His role is merely to act as a host, communicating with other powerful individuals from the Sakura Kingdom.

Therefore, he cannot die; he needs a skilled protector.

That's exactly what exposed their position.

"You gifted with telekinesis, we've found you!"

Within Lin Yu's mind stone, only the voice of the one making the thought can be heard.

He couldn't hear the mental fluctuations emitted by the other people holding the Mind Stones; only the Mind Stone user could receive all the mental fluctuations.

But that's enough.

"At the very top of the oldest tree?"

Lin Yu murmured and looked up.

All around him were towering ancient trees.

Without a second thought, he leaped into the air, bounding back and forth between the two large trees, climbing ever higher. He needed to pinpoint the exact location of the tallest ancient tree.

"Finding that ancient tree means finding the one who has the will."

Lin Yu was extremely fast, and five or six minutes later he reached the top of the big tree.

"Is it the tallest and largest ancient tree?"

He stood atop the tree, looking around.

"It's that one!"

He saw it very quickly.

Far to the north, a towering ancient tree reaches straight into the clouds.

Even some of the clouds in the sky are below the treetops, which shows how tall the tree is.

"Due north?"

Lin Yu quickly leaped down from the tree and rushed in that direction.

He estimated that the place was quite far away.

It will take about four or five hours to get there.

at the same time.

From different directions, near or far, figures were rushing toward the same goal.

-

outside world.

On the live streaming forum, after half an hour, the scene changed, and another 16 scenes were broadcast live.

At this moment, in the picture.

In a desert area.

A figure in combat gear frantically ran for their life.

Three figures were hot on his heels.

"People of Great Xia, stop running! Prepare to die!"

"In the desert, I am king. I'll give you time to escape, but where can you possibly run to?"

One of the burly men stared at the back of the Xia people and gave a cold smile.

The next moment, he plunged into the desert, moving with incredible speed like a fish entering water.

They rushed rapidly toward the Xia people.

In the video, all the viewers could see was the sand on the desert moving.
