129: Slaying and Promotion

After continuously absorbing the energy of the Heavenly Rule Vicious Beast, the ancient bronze mirror’s charge finally reached 100%!

After a slight hum, the previously blurry star pattern on the mirror surface seemed to brighten a little, then the light receded, turning back into the irregular fragment the size of a palm. With a “thud,” it fell back into Lin Ye’s hand, returning to its inconspicuous appearance.

If not for seeing it with their own eyes, no one could imagine that this fragment, resembling scrap metal, contained such… unfathomable power!

“Roar… huh?”

In the distance, the Heavenly Rule Vicious Beast, which had been high and mighty, viewing all things as ants, suddenly stiffened its massive body! Its dark golden vertical pupils, like blood-colored lanterns, showed confusion and surprise!

It couldn't understand!

Why did its attack… suddenly diminish in power?!

What was that ancient bronze mirror that suddenly appeared?! Why did it give it a sense of… palpitation originating from its Bloodline, from its Soul?!

What shocked it even more was that it clearly felt its vast, ocean-like Origin power within its body… continuously being drained away?!

And it was precisely at the moment this terrifying Vicious Beast fell into a brief state of surprise and confusion—

“Now is the time!!!”

Lin Ye’s dark eyes, which had been filled with endless killing intent, suddenly erupted with a brilliant light capable of igniting the heavens and earth!

He could clearly feel that the terrifying pressure above his head, like an ancient divine mountain, had shown… a subtle, almost imperceptible loosening due to the bronze fragment’s strange attack!

And at the same time!

In his mind, the cold System prompt sounded like the most rousing war drums, furiously flooding his vision!

“Ding! Detecting massive resources injected… ‘God-Demon Prison Suppressing Body’ idle efficiency has reached its peak…”

“Idle time… five hundred years… achieved!”

“Idle time… one thousand years… achieved!”

“Idle time… one thousand five hundred years… achieved!”

“Ding!”

“Congratulations, host! ‘God-Demon Prison Suppressing Body’ has successfully Broken Through to… the third layer — ‘Divine Demon Dharma Body’!”

Boom!!!

A terrifying storm of power, filled with endless divinity and endless demonic Qi, suddenly erupted with Lin Ye’s body as its center!

His Physical Body, which had been suppressed by the terrifying pressure to the point of being almost immobile, actually let out a “creak” of unbearable sorrow under the infusion of this vast energy! His skin cracked inch by inch! Blood spurted out like a gushing spring!

“Roar—!!!”

A silent roar, as if from an ancient divine demon, suddenly exploded deep within his Divine Soul!

Within his Dantian Qi Sea, the nine-zhang black and white Dharma Body, which had been blurry, suddenly opened its eyes at this moment, as if imbued with a Soul!

His left eye, dark as ink, reflected an endless purgatory capable of suppressing the Nine Hells!

His right eye, brilliant as the sun, emitted a supreme divine light capable of purifying all demons!

A terrifying Aura, as if transcending all Laws of this heaven and earth, swept out! It actually forcefully… pushed back the terrifying pressure from the Heavenly Rule Vicious Beast!

“This… what is this?!”

In the distance, the Heavenly Rule Vicious Beast finally recovered from its surprise!

Lin Ye endured the severe pain of his Physical Body on the verge of collapse, suddenly turned his head, and let out a roar full of endless Battle Intent at the beautiful figure behind him, who was already stunned!

“Qingyue! Attack!!!”

Su Qingyue’s mind suddenly trembled!

She looked at the young man, covered in blood, yet with an Aura as terrifying as a divine demon. Her clear, cold eyes were instantly replaced by an unprecedented determination!

Without the slightest hesitation, she furiously poured the remaining magical power in her body, which had been depleted due to Law suppression, into the ice soul divine sword in her hand!

“Buzz—!!!”

A clear, loud, earth-shattering sword cry, as if to completely freeze the Soul, suddenly echoed through the sky!

A terrifying sword Qi, a hundred zhang long, entirely condensed from the purest Nine Nether Profound Ice, as if to completely cleave this blood-colored sky, shot up into the heavens!

“Profound Ice… Dust-Shattering Slash!!!”

She let out a delicate shout, and that terrifying sword Qi, carrying an unyielding determination, fiercely slashed down at the Heavenly Rule Vicious Beast, which had already suffered Origin damage from the bronze fragment and was now intimidated by Lin Ye’s Aura!

“Roar?!?”

The Heavenly Rule Vicious Beast let out a roar filled with shock, anger, and disbelief!

It never expected that these two insects, which in its eyes should have been as vulnerable as ants, would dare to… actively attack it?!

Seeking death!!!

Its massive body suddenly shook, and an even more terrifying, destructive dark golden torrent, like a world-ending celestial river pouring down from the Nine Heavens, surged towards the incoming ice-blue sword Qi!

Rumble!!!

The ultimate collision of ice and dark gold! The furious annihilation of Law and Law!

A terrifying energy storm instantly swept through a hundred-mile radius!

The black mountains below collapsed and shattered in large swathes, like fragile sandboxes!

In the sky, even more hideous spatial cracks were torn open!

“Pfft!”

Su Qingyue spat out a mouthful of blood, her slender figure flying backward like a kite with a broken string!

Although her sword strike had been with all her might!

But, the Dharma Body Realm and the Demigod, after all, had… a world of difference!

However, her sword strike was not… in vain!

One could see that the previously arrogant dark golden torrent, in its collision with the ice-blue sword Qi, was actually forcefully… delayed for half a breath!

And the massive body of the Heavenly Rule Vicious Beast also experienced… a moment of stiffness due to this terrifying impact!

Now is the time!!!

Lin Ye pushed the supreme Physical Body power, which had already reached the third layer of the Divine Demon Dharma Body, to its extreme!

He raised his right hand.

Then, he unleashed a plain punch at the terrifying Vicious Beast, whose guard was wide open due to its stiffness, from a great distance!

This punch had no earth-shattering Aura.

What it had was… pure, return-to-Origin, absolute power capable of completely piercing through this heaven and earth!

At that instant, all living beings still remaining in this area seemed to hear a roar… of a divine demon from the primordial era!

One could see a pure black fist print, condensed from endless darkness and destructive Law, leaving his body!

The fist print swelled with the wind! It instantly transformed into a hideous demonic fist the size of a mountain, as if to completely crush this blood-colored sky!

It, fiercely, slammed into the massive head of the Heavenly Rule Vicious Beast, which was still in a stiffened state!

“Pop.”

An extremely subtle sound, like a bubble bursting.

Immediately after—

Under Su Qingyue’s horrified gaze, filled with disbelief!

The arrogant ancient Vicious Beast, capable of rivaling a Demigod expert, its massive, hideous head capable of smashing mountains, actually… “bang,” exploded from the center of its brows, like a watermelon struck by a sledgehammer!

Red and white… like the most dazzling fireworks, instantly dyed the entire blood-colored sky!

And its massive headless body, as if all its strength had been drained, collapsed with a crash!

“Rumble!!!”

Kicking up dust everywhere! Completely… leveling the already shattered mountains below!

…Dead silence.

The sound of a needle dropping could be heard.

Su Qingyue floated blankly in mid-air. She looked at the young man’s back, who slowly retracted his fist, covered in blood, yet appearing even more majestic than a god. Her heart, which had been frozen for ten thousand years, for the first time, uncontrollably, furiously… began to pound!

And it was at this moment!

“Pfft!”

Lin Ye suddenly spat out a mouthful of dark, rebellious blood! His body, which had been as majestic as a divine demon, suddenly swayed, and the black and white Dao robe woven from light and darkness actually began to become… ethereal, like an illusion!

Forcibly activating power beyond his own limits, he was already… at the end of his rope!

“Lin Ye!”

Su Qingyue exclaimed, quickly stepping forward to steadily support his body, which was about to fall from mid-air.

“Cough… cough cough…” Lin Ye coughed with difficulty, his originally evil and handsome face now only showing endless paleness and weakness.

But in his dark eyes, a trace of… relieved smile flickered.

He slowly raised his hand, pointing at the Vicious Beast’s corpse, which was already deader than dead.

“Qing… Qingyue…”

“Beast… Beast Core…”

After saying these two words, he could no longer hold on, his eyes rolled back, and he completely… passed out.

Su Qingyue’s heart suddenly tightened!

Without the slightest hesitation, she immediately transferred a stream of pure spiritual energy into Lin Ye’s body to protect his heart pulse.

Then, she slowly raised her head, and a cold killing intent flashed in her clear, cold eyes!

Her figure swayed, transforming into a white stream of light, instantly appearing before the massive Vicious Beast’s corpse!

The ice soul divine sword in her hand let out a clear sword cry!

A terrifying sword light, capable of completely freezing the Void Realm, flashed and disappeared!

“Pfft!”

The indestructible dark golden scales were actually easily… sliced open from the middle!

A rhomboid crystal core, about the size of a baby’s fist, entirely dark golden, its surface covered with countless profound Dao patterns, emitting a terrifying energy fluctuation capable of making the Laws of heaven and earth resonate, slowly… floated out from the shattered head!

divine source crystal!!!
