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

About half an hour later.

The compass needle kept jumping and started to circle.

Lin Yu knew that his target, number 563, was nearby. The compass needle in his hand slowly stopped spinning, pointing north.

He immediately steered the fire dragon into flight.

"I've found you."

Lin Yu smiled.

In his mental perception, an S-level expert was running rapidly more than 300 meters to the north.

His goal was clear: to head straight north.

"Die!"

Lin Yu stood atop the fire giant's head, slowly conjuring a large flaming bow in his hand.

Draw the bow and pull the arrow!

Instantly.

Terrifying flames coalesced in his hand, and a massive flaming arrow materialized, aiming at the figure leaping through the forest.

"What's going on? Why do I suddenly feel a pang in my heart? It seems like something bad is about to happen?"

The running figure paused, as if sensing something.

His body paused slightly.

The next moment, the compass in his hand began to spin erratically.

This means his target is nearby.

"Very good!"

Instantly, he banished all his unease.

They rushed quickly toward the direction the compass had finally set.

"Has he spotted his target?"

Lin Yu, high in the sky, was slightly taken aback as he watched this scene, and the flaming arrow in his hand slowly dissipated.

If the distance is close, there's no rush to kill; you can wait.

You might even get an extra Secret Realm Card.

Three or four minutes later.

Another figure appeared within Lin Yu's mental perception range.

"This must be what 563 is after all."

Lin Yu drew his bow and nocked an arrow again.

In front.

563 charged straight at his opponent. The two knew each other's purpose as soon as they met, and without saying a word, they started fighting.

Just then.

An overwhelming sense of crisis arose in both of their hearts at the same time.

They thought it was coming from the other person and were about to say something when they felt an overwhelming heat coming from behind them.

The two turned their heads and immediately saw an incredibly terrifying flaming arrow tearing through space and hurtling towards them.

"Holy crap—"

Both of them felt the destructive power within the arrow and were so frightened that they quickly dodged to the side.

"Boom!!"

The flaming arrow landed, causing a tremendous explosion.

A terrifying force erupted, blasting the earth into a huge mushroom cloud.

"Ptooey, ptooey..."

"That attack was incredibly powerful, but its accuracy seemed a bit off; otherwise, I'd probably be in hell by now!"

Two figures, spitting out dust and cursing, struggled to their feet from the smoke and dust.

Their bodies were covered in bloody wounds and many charred marks.

If that attack hadn't missed, neither of them would have survived.

"Who are you……"

"The Magician of Great Xia!"

The two men got up, covered in dust, and found a man standing in front of them.

Upon seeing their faces clearly, the two were so frightened that they fell to the ground again.

"How could it be this jinx?"

The two men's faces turned deathly pale.

The magician in front of them was a ruthless character who could kill anyone who touched him, yet these two had actually run into him.

"The magician of Great Xia, I am not your target, he is..."

The person being chased by ID card number 563 spoke cautiously.

He still held a sliver of hope, because if he was 563's target, then he couldn't possibly be the Magician's target.

"I know, can you tell me what number you're targeting?"

Lin Yu spoke with a smile.

If he truly intended to kill those two, how could his attack have missed?

He just wanted to spare this man's life.

"The strong of Great Xia, my target is number 634," the man said weakly.

"Understood."

Lin Yu smiled slightly.

The next moment, a flash of light appeared, and the man's head flew off instantly.

Upon seeing this, number 563 immediately took off running.

Unfortunately—

How could the person Lin Yu wanted to kill possibly escape?

He swung his two-hundred-meter-long flaming blade down with a backhand motion, engulfing the entire space. No matter where 563 ran, it was within the range of this slash.

"boom!"

The outcome was predictable: this S-rank powerhouse was instantly torn to pieces.

Lin Yu walked forward with a smile.

First, they found the identity card of the first deceased strongman, stuck a small piece of paper on it, and wrote down the number 634.

This means that as long as he finds the identity card of 634 later, he can merge with this card to obtain a mysterious red secret realm card.

Then, attach 563's identity card and you'll get another Secret Realm Card.

Then you can stick your number 6 on and get another one.

"As long as I collect enough identity cards this round, I can create an endless nesting system. I might even be able to get dozens or hundreds of identity cards."

Lin Yu murmured something.

Thinking of this possibility, his breathing became much heavier.

Hundreds of Red Secret Realm Cards...

This wealth is incredibly valuable!

"Now that I have my own target card, there's nothing to worry about. Let's start the slaughter!"

Lin Yu licked his lips, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

After searching their belongings, he mounted the fire dragon, took to the air, and began searching for prey.

This time, he will no longer be a picky eater.

Anyone who appears in his sights must leave behind their identity card and all their resources.

They pluck feathers from passing geese, and grind their bones to dust!

-

At this moment, in a mysterious world of rules.

A group of figures exuding a powerful aura stared in disbelief at Lin Yu's actions on the battlefield.

After a little thought, they understood the deeper meaning behind Lin Yu's actions.

This guy is using nesting dolls here!

After a while.

An old man spoke quietly, "The rules set up by the Spirit of the Universe for this second round have a serious bug. If this little bandit continues like this, won't most of the secret realm cards end up in his hands?"

"Yes, there is a bug!"

"Can it be fixed?" someone asked.

Lin Yu's outrageous actions truly opened their eyes.

"Repairing it is certainly possible, but I don't think it's necessary."

The man with the thunderous aura stroked his chin and slowly said, "Sometimes, fate and luck are also a kind of strength. Since we didn't consider this issue back then, and now he's caught us, then he deserves this opportunity."

"Perhaps this is fate."

"That's right, and his idea is good, but we also need to see if he has the ability to do it."

Someone calmly voiced their opinion: "Although he's very strong, obtaining the identity cards of those contestants won't be difficult for him. But don't forget, his biggest enemies are those guys in the coffins."

"Too."

"If he collects all the identity tokens, then he will become the target of all the creatures in the coffins."
