Who says those who retire at the speed of light are not heroes?

"What if there is nothing at all?"

"Then destroy everything."

"How terrible." Lin Cheng drank all the iced Americano in the cup in one gulp. He stood up and said, "Thank you for reminding me."

"You haven't paid yet."

"No way, our relationship isn't even worth a cup of coffee?"

Lin Cheng had just walked to the door of the coffee shop when a strange force transported him back to the bar. Lin Cheng took out his mobile phone to scan the code, but it showed that the balance was insufficient. His living expenses for this month had not yet arrived.

"Just pay it back for now. I'll invite you to my bar for a drink next time."

"I don't like drinking."

"You didn't like coffee before. You have to get used to many things slowly."

Black Phoenix looked at him deeply and said, "Go away."

"Okay, see you again."

Lin Cheng quickly left the coffee shop, got on his bike in a hurry, and rode away at full speed, running far away.

....................................

Green-haired suddenly appeared at the bar. He looked at Lin Cheng's departing back, hesitated for a moment, and asked softly, "I thought...the boss was going to kill him."

"I can't kill him, but he is one of the few people in the world who can kill me." Black Phoenix's voice was very cold. "It's not that easy to make him mentally collapse. He has been in the abyss for so long that he has already gone crazy. Logically, he should be lost in the abyss, or become the new lord of the abyss. Maybe all this is related to his fate."

"What is destiny?" Green Hair couldn't help but ask.

Black Phoenix just shook his head, "I don't know, but if he wants to become the Ultimate, it should be much easier than it is for me. Maybe it only takes a thought, so... there is no need to provoke him."

"So the boss's purpose in testing him this time is...?"

"I just looked at his mental state. He seems to be doing well. That's good... If I fail one day in the future, he can help me solve the problem."

....................................

Lin Cheng ran as fast as he could.

He had just felt a hint of murderous intent from Black Phoenix, but fortunately she gave up quickly. She should know that she couldn't kill him, but if she wanted to torture him and make him mentally collapse, that would be very troublesome.

There are only two days left before the abyss is about to fall.

It had started to rain heavily in the city, and in the distant sky, cracks had begun to appear faintly. Because of the abyss breath emanating from the city, the grass and trees were growing wildly, and some trees had even mutated. Lin Cheng returned to the villa in the heavy rain. Jiang Lingxue brought him a towel to wipe his hair, and he stood there obediently while Jiang Lingxue carefully wiped his hair and face.

..............................

The heavy rain continued for two days and two nights without stopping, and some parts of the city were already flooded.

The abyss cracks above their heads were now being torn apart bit by bit. Lin Cheng, Jiang Lingxue, Xia Ning, Grape, and Litchi had all arrived at the square in the center of the city. The alliance's judges and the ability users chosen by Tianyuan to face the disaster had all gathered here.

The heavy rain was still falling, the world was dark, the city lights were no longer on, and Lin Cheng's gaze passed through the rainstorm and looked far away at Xinjun who was standing on the high platform in the rain.

He was also wearing an alliance uniform. The raindrops dodged past him. He looked at everyone in front of him and easily blocked the heavy rain for everyone.

It is now four o'clock in the morning, and everyone is quietly waiting for the abyss to fall.

Finally, at six o'clock in the morning, a shrill buzzing sound rang in everyone's ears.

The crack in space was completely opened. Xinjun looked into the sky and activated the power of molecular influence. The teleportation anchor point of the abyss crack was changed, and Lu Lingling also activated the power of space to send all the people in the fruit shop to the pre-prepared battle venue, the wide square in the west of the city.

The disaster that was created by the interweaving of blood-red and pitch-black flesh slowly opened its eyes in the rainstorm.

180 Hard to Top

"Exactly the same..." Xia Ning couldn't help but exclaimed.

In the past, she had never had the opportunity to come into contact with an abyss creature of the level of the Disaster. She had only seen photos and video materials in the information, but these were not real things after all. But the appearance of the Disaster she saw in front of her at this moment was almost exactly the same as the one simulated by Lin Cheng in the illusion.

The disaster in front of him was six meters tall, humanoid, with hideous barbs on his arms. Apart from that, the energy core in his chest was pitch black with some misty gas inside. The moment he opened his eyes, he had already reached out and taken out a piece of bone from his body that had long since evolved into a weapon, with bloodshot in his scarlet eyes.

And at this moment, Litchi's spiritual master had descended on the Disaster in front of him, forcing his back to bend for a moment. Grape held the sharp dagger tightly in his hand, on which runes were engraved for special attacks against the Disaster's flesh and blood characteristics.

Lizhi's spiritual dominance is telekinesis suppression, while Jiang Lingxue's power is bloodline suppression.

The moment Jiang Lingxue's eyes lit up, the hideous face of Disaster seemed to be stunned for a moment, perhaps surprised why there was a more powerful existence than him here, but at that moment of surprise, Grape's dagger had arrived.

At this moment, Xia Ning also sensed that her energy core was changing under the influence of Lin Cheng's power. Molecular influence is a very special ability, and because of its high level, it can almost do many things that ordinary people think only high-level abilities can do, such as alchemy, replication, changing the form of matter, teleportation, explosion, decomposition, and even slowing down the flow of time within a range. This is also something she can do.

And now the essence of her ability has been forcibly upgraded to molecular fission by Lin Cheng. What she has to do is to use the power of fission to change the energy core of the disaster and thus weaken his power. She has tried it countless times in the illusion before, and now seeing it with her own eyes, she realizes that the energy core of the disaster simulated by Lin Cheng is exactly the same, so she easily [understood] the existence of the energy core, and understanding can deconstruct it, and then start fission.

Disaster let out a wail, and the moment the sound wave arrived, everyone's ears had already been blocked by Litchi's power. All of this was just for assists, and the real main attacker was still Grape. She had already come in front of Disaster, which was equivalent to the control mage in the team having done everything. All she had to do was to finish off Disaster the moment he was controlled.

She did it.

The dagger was pushed into the energy core of the disaster. The energy core of the abyss creature is like the human brain. The moment it is broken, he will die.

Disaster's body slowly fell down, and the energy core overflowed. He represented the power of fear and chaos. The black energy in the energy core overflowed. Lin Cheng stretched out his hand, and those powers were drawn into his body.

Everyone in the fruit shop looked slightly pale.

The disaster in front of them was an abyss creature with an energy level of 25w. All they could do in an instant was to burst out all their strength to barely suppress and kill it. At this moment, everyone's strength had been almost drained, except Xia Ning, who still had a lot of strength left.

Lin Cheng patted her shoulder gently from behind and said, "Send them all back, and you come with me."

This was also what Lin Cheng had told Xia Ning in advance. Xia Ning nodded slightly and raised her hand. The power of molecular influence was activated, and the remaining people in the square were sent away by Xia Ning. Before leaving, Lizhi looked deeply at Lin Cheng with a hint of helplessness.

We had clearly agreed that after this disaster was resolved, we would all leave together.

..........................................

The moment the battle in the fruit shop began, the battles in other places had already begun.

Compared to the fruit shop which was resolved in an instant, the battles with the disaster in other places were more of a grappling battle. Each member of the Arbiter team performed his duties. Lin Cheng carried Xiao Qi with him, and Xiao Qi turned into a motorcycle mode. Xia Ning got on the bike and hugged him tightly from behind. The road was slippery due to the heavy rain. In a trance, Xia Ning seemed to recall the memory of Lin Cheng taking her on a wild ride on the road late at night that day.

"Are you really Siming?" She couldn't help but ask, using her ability to deliberately transmit the voice to Lin Cheng's ears.

"If you don't want me to be, then I don't have to be." Lin Cheng smiled helplessly, and soon rode his motorcycle to another battlefield. These battlefields were selected in advance by the alliance to ensure the minimum damage, but at this moment it has turned into a sea of ​​fire. The disaster is at the center of the sea of ​​fire. Heavy rain keeps pouring down, but it can't extinguish the hot flames burning by this ability user.

"Continue to use your abilities." Lin Cheng stopped the car and said to Xia Ning.

The power of molecular fission was activated once again, and the energy core of the disaster was shaken. The judges of the alliance surrounding him needed no reminder that this was his most vulnerable moment. The ability users in charge of the main attack picked up the special weapons distributed by the alliance and slashed at the energy core of the disaster.

The disaster also slowly fell down, its energy core shattered. Lin Cheng raised his hand, and the overflowing black energy once again came to his side. Lin Cheng didn't say anything, started the motorcycle again, and came to the next battle site.

Xia Ning's head was already a little dizzy. The continuous molecular fission was also a great consumption for her. Lin Cheng looked back at her. Xia Ning bit her lip tightly and said, "I'm still okay."

So Lin Cheng changed her energy core once again, and she launched molecular fission once again. Another abyss monster fell down, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of Xia Ning's mouth at this moment.

Lin Cheng collected all the black energy released by the disaster and looked back at Xia Ning. Xia Ning said in a trembling voice, "There is still... one last one."

"Use your last bit of strength to teleport back, don't try to be brave..." Lin Cheng reached out and touched her head gently, but suddenly his throat felt sweet and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. The blood mist fell on Xia Ning's face. Xia Ning was frightened and stared at him. The heavy rain fell on her face and quickly washed away the blood mist.

"Sorry, sorry, I lost control... Don't worry about me, use your power to teleport back, I still have things to do."

"what happened to you?"

"If you say it's okay, then it's okay. Why do you have time for so much nonsense?"

Xia Ning got out of the car and subconsciously followed his orders. Before leaving, she said, "You... take care of yourself."

"Don't worry." Lin Cheng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, smiled and waved at her.

....................................

Lin Cheng clearly remembered where the battlefields in the city were. He came to the fourth disaster. The energy points of the disaster in front of him were 300,000, and it was floating in the air. Lu Lingling was also floating in the air, and the wind behind her lifted her body. She just raised her hand, and the hot thunder and flames intertwined to force back the disaster that tried to move forward. When Lin Cheng entered this space, he found that the time in this space was delayed by Lu Lingling. She looked back at Lin Cheng, and Lin Cheng was also looking at her.

Lu Lingling's face was also very pale.

Her energy points are 25, which is less than the disaster in front of her. They are currently in a stalemate. All she can hope for is for someone to come and support her after the other Arbiter teams have dealt with the disaster.

"Why is it you?" she couldn't help asking.

"Why can't it be me?" Lin Cheng gently put his arm around her shoulders from behind and whispered, "I will change the source of your power, use the power of time to trace back his energy core, and then blast him with thunder."

Lu Lingling's energy core was also strengthened by Lin Cheng at this moment. After a moment, more rules about time appeared in her mind. She obeyed Lin Cheng's instructions and ordered the disaster in front of her to go back in time only for him. His body began to shrink, and the 300,000 energy points were gradually weakened to 200,000, and then thunder fell.

The beams of thunder and fire enveloped the disaster until a huge hole appeared on the ground. The energy core of the disaster was shattered. Lin Cheng raised his hand, and black energy poured into his palm. His face became paler, and this time it was not just the corners of his mouth, but even his nose and ears began to bleed, but it was quickly washed away by the heavy rain.

"Where's Xiaoxiao?" he asked.

"Xiaoxiao is assisting the Judgement Team in the west of the city."

"Teleport, let's go help her."

Lin Cheng's body was about to fall on Lu Lingling, and Lu Lingling hurriedly supported him, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, I just feel a little dizzy. I have to clean up after myself later. You know I won't die, don't worry."

Lin Cheng answered as the two of them traveled through space in front of him. Lin Cheng saw the fifth disaster he had seen today. The battle here seemed to be coming to an end. Lu Xiaoxiao held a long knife in her hand and slashed it at the energy core of the disaster. Cracks appeared in the core, and she immediately burst out with all her strength. The blade in her hand hit the cracks like a storm, completely shattering its energy core.

Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, and Lin Cheng, who had suddenly arrived here, raised his hand to absorb all the black mist in the energy core. He looked at Lu Xiaoxiao's face. She was also injured, with a big wound on her left shoulder. The two looked at each other from afar in the heavy rain, and Lin Cheng smiled at her, "You did a great job."

"you……"

Lu Xiaoxiao saw that black blood was flowing from the corners of Lin Cheng's mouth, eyes, and nose, and black veins seemed to appear on his skin, which looked a little scary.

"It's okay." Lin Cheng looked at Lu Lingling, "Send me to the Tianyuan battlefield."

"Are you really okay?"

"If you say no, then no, it's so annoying."

Lu Lingling finally mobilized the power of space, and the battle between Tianyuan and Disaster seemed to be coming to an end, but at this moment a human corpse was lying on the ground. Tianyuan's ability users were all red-eyed, and the blades in their hands fell on Disaster's body, splashing sparks.

Lu Lingling used her newly recovered strength to mobilize thunder to seal the body of the disaster until the core of the disaster was broken. Lin Cheng raised his hand, and the black mist entered his body. So far, he had collected the core power of six disasters.

"It's hard to top... refresh it."

Lin Cheng suddenly picked up the long knife on the ground, brought it to his neck and wiped it, but what gushed out at this moment was black blood. His body fell down, but after a few seconds it was reassembled in a strange way. He slowly stood up, and his exposed arms, cheeks, and all the skin were now covered with dense black lines.

181 Sword Pointing

[Refresh] made Lin Cheng feel a little better, but not particularly better.

These powers of disasters do not belong to him. They are just temporarily stored in his body and borrowed. He cannot absorb them in equal amounts. These powers are trying hard to break free from such a container, so pain is bound to spread in the body. The power of disaster itself is fear and chaos, and it also has a significant impact on the spirit.

"Send me to Xinjun." Lin Cheng raised his head slowly, his voice became a little calmer and no longer trembling like before.

"Are you really okay?"

"Of course."

The moment the two of them uttered this sentence, a deafening explosion suddenly sounded above the sky. Lin Cheng raised his head. He had already seen the new monarch, who was above the sky, not far away. Lin Cheng leaped up from the ground, his black wings spread out behind him, and with a strong wind surging up, he came to the side of the new monarch. In front of the new monarch were four disasters, each with an energy level of 30w. The disaster that the Black Phoenix had described did not appear.

But Lin Cheng inexplicably felt a little uneasy in his heart.

When Lin Cheng turned his gaze to Xin Jun, he saw that his 60w energy points had been consumed by nearly % at this moment, and the energy cores of the disasters in front of them were also broken to varying degrees.

The power of molecular influence makes the new monarch close to a demigod, but not a god after all.

In the battle area in mid-air, everything was distorted and blurred, like ink painting. Lin Cheng came to Xinjun. The wings behind him no longer trembled, but he was still suspended in mid-air. The city under his feet became smaller.

"My strength is not enough to drive your improvement. Go away and leave the rest to me." Lin Cheng's voice was a little hoarse.

"you……"

Xinjun could sense Lin Cheng's condition through molecular influence. The Lin Cheng standing in front of him at this moment was very strange. His aura was chaotic, as if it came from the disaster. The black lines on his body seemed to be about to stretch him out. His body was twisted in a weird way, as if he was about to turn into some kind of deformed monster.

"The abyss crack has not closed yet... Use your strength to delay time. I will come to you in ten minutes... Ten minutes. Can you do it?" The dark red blood vessels have completely wrapped Lin Cheng's body and merged with the black lines.

"Yes." Xinjun's voice was firm.

"That's good."

Xinjun's body disappeared beside Lin Cheng. He went to the door of the abyss crack and used molecular influence to modify the rules of the crack to delay time, while Lin Cheng looked at the four disasters in front of him.

The four disasters changed their targets at once. When they locked their aura on Lin Cheng, their scarlet eyes revealed strange emotions, like reverence and fear.

Dark red blood threads continued to multiply and reorganize on Lin Cheng's body. His body also grew taller in the sky. The wings behind him turned into bone wings, bone spurs grew on his tail vertebrae, and his skin turned purple. Countless inscriptions appeared on his body. These inscriptions were not artificially engraved, but were the abilities of the creature he was now incarnated into.

Lei Ze, the lord of the thunder pool in the abyss.

....................................

The battle on the ground is over.

Lu Xiaoxiao and Lu Lingling were sitting on the bluestone edge of the square. The alliance's detector had already flown high into the sky. Lu Lingling was holding a tablet in her hand. On the screen was Lin Cheng transforming into Lei Ze, fighting with the four disasters. Lightning flashed around Lei Ze's body. Wherever he descended, there were countless thunders. The clouds in the night sky were dark, and the lightning almost lit up the world in the screen.
