37: The heart of God, the son inherits the father's business!

On the arena, the enormous phantom of mythical creator figure, tens of thousands of feet tall, slowly dissipated into nothingness after completing its proclamation of reigning over the world.

However, replacing it was an even more terrifying, more sacred, and more supreme aura that erupted from Lin Tian's seemingly slender body, sweeping out and filling every corner of the entire Sky City!

Boom!!!

Tens of thousands of feet of golden light, like the first ray of creation at the beginning of the Universe, capable of purifying Chaos and judging all things, burst forth from his chest without warning! That light was ten thousand times more sacred and pure than Kyle’s proud Holy Light! It was a hundred million times more dazzling than the stars in the sky!

At the center of this intensely brilliant golden light, a perfect, radiant, golden heart phantom slowly emerged, composed of countless profound light runes and judgment Laws, seemingly containing the ultimate mysteries of the Universe's creation and destruction!

Each beat of it seemed to synchronize with the pulse of the entire Universe, emitting a “thump, thump, thump” sound that was not transmitted through the air, but rather, like the evening drum and morning bell of heaven and earth, directly and clearly resonated deep within the Soul of everyone present!

In the sound of this heartbeat, whether ordinary spectators, high-ranking Martial Arts Grandmasters, or even the top financial magnate leaders who had long been accustomed to storms, all at this moment felt an irresistible, primal urge from the deepest level of their life to prostrate themselves before that heart!

“This… this is… a mythical-grade genetic organ!”

In the VIP section, Li Qingcang, the rotating chairman of the Global Martial Arts Alliance and an SSS-grade Martial God, who had always sat there as if an impending collapse of Mount Tai would not change his expression, suddenly stood up from his seat the moment he saw this golden heart phantom! For the first time, his profound eyes, which seemed to be able to discern all the operating Laws of the world, revealed an extreme astonishment and disbelief that could not be described by any language!

He exclaimed in a lost voice, with a tremor he himself hadn't noticed: “Legend has it that only by breaking the ultimate shackles of the genetic sequence and undergoing a miraculous transformation, one in a billion, on the basis of mythical-grade genes, is it possible to cultivate the unique ‘Organ of God’ within the body! He… he actually possesses something that only exists in the most ancient myths?!”

This judgment, like a super nuclear bomb that detonated the cognitive views of all the big shots, plunged the entire VIP section into a deathly silence, filled with awe and greed!

And Kyle, at the center of the storm, feeling that unrivaled, absolute suppression stemming from a higher life level, was even more scared to the point of Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering!

He could clearly feel that his proud S-grade [Holy Light] Divine Ability, in front of the light emitted by that golden heart, was like dirty gutter water encountering a vast celestial river that purified everything! It was as humble… as dust!

“No! This is impossible! This is definitely an illusion! Purify him for me! Purify him completely!!!”

He roared madly, exhausting his last shred of life source core, recklessly activating the already crumbling [Heaven's Descent] Domain, launching his final, and most futile, strangulation attack against Lin Tian!

Within the Domain, countless phantoms of six-winged angels formed by Holy Light chanted songs of judgment; blades of judgment transformed from Holy Light rained down like a furious storm, carrying terrifying power to purify everything, strangling towards Lin Tian!

However, facing this world-destroying final blow, Lin Tian slowly raised his right hand.

He activated the [Heart of God], his unique Organ of God, which had just perfectly fused with him!

He unleashed its inherent, sole, and most powerful innate Divine Ability!

“Holy Light… Annihilation.”

A beam of annihilation, not thick, even somewhat slender, pure to the extreme, as if not belonging to this material dimension, silently shot out from his palm.

That beam of light did not have the grand momentum of Kyle's Holy Light, nor did it possess such a sacred and majestic aura.

It only had the purest… destruction.

Crushing everything!

Irresistible!

Kyle's [Heaven's Descent] Holy Light Domain, which was capable of purifying all things and suppressing everything, in front of that slender beam of annihilation, was like ten thousand years of accumulated ice and snow touched by a red-hot branding iron; it couldn't even offer the slightest resistance before being instantly pierced, vaporized, evaporated, and annihilated!

The phantoms of angels chanting sacred songs, the moment they touched the beam, were like ghosts encountering the scorching sun, emitting a silent, piercing shriek and turning into nothingness!

Those indestructible Swords of Judgment shattered like fragile glass!

Immediately after, that beam of light, after completely purifying the entire Holy Light Domain, continued its momentum undiminished, striking Kyle's chest, which was already swollen from the life source core energy, squarely!

Pfft!!!

Kyle, like a fragile balloon hit head-on by an interstellar main cannon, flew backward like a kite with a broken string, smashing heavily onto the edge of the arena several hundred meters away, creating a huge human-shaped crater in the solid ground, which was made of A-grade memory alloy and strong enough to withstand a Martial Emperor's attack!

His entire body was scorched black, his clothes were in tatters, the brilliant Holy Light energy around him had completely dissipated, and his aura was extremely weak; he was already… severely injured and on the verge of death!

The spectacular debut of the new cheat was completed in the most absolute, most crushing, and most unreasonable way!

The entire venue was silent.

Everyone was stunned into complete silence by this miraculous, world-shattering counter-kill that overturned all their martial arts perceptions.

Lin Tian slowly retracted his hand, and his figure flickered, appearing as if by teleportation beside Kyle, who lay in the deep pit with only half a breath left.

He looked at Kyle's face, which was filled with fear and despair, and a smile filled with “fondness” and “gentleness” appeared on his own face.

In Kyle's terrified eyes, he reached out again and grabbed his right arm, which had just regenerated perfectly with the power of the [life source core].

As he slowly exerted force, listening to the bone-grinding sound of Kyle's arm breaking, he spoke with a “benevolent” tone, as if reminiscing with an old friend:

“Speaking of which, I did read a very interesting anecdote in my father's diary.”

“I heard that thirty years ago, at the previous Global Youth Martial Arts Tournament, my equally overbearing and unreasonable father, on this very arena, used the same method to forcibly… tear off an arm from your equally arrogant father.”

He paused, looking at Kyle's face, which was already completely contorted by fear and intense pain, and the smile on his face grew even brighter, like a child who had received a beloved toy.

“Today, I am ‘inheriting my father's Legacy.’ I imagine… you should feel very honored, right?”

As soon as his voice fell!

Rip—!!!

Accompanied by Kyle's agonizing scream, which was inhuman, and the gasps of horror from the entire audience!

His freshly regenerated arm was, once again, forcibly torn off by Lin Tian, in front of the whole world!

Blood gushed out like a fountain!

Staining the arena, and also staining the eyes of everyone, which were already filled with horror!

“Legacy-style face-slapping”!

This humiliation, far more than any physical injury, made Kyle feel despair!

He completely collapsed.

And Lin Tian, after delivering this malicious finishing blow, looked at Kyle, who had completely turned into a puddle of mud, and his eyes finally turned completely cold.

He knew that this fully ripe “leek” no longer had any exploitable value.

It was time… to harvest.

His eyes were cold, killing intent surged, and he prepared to deliver the final ultimatum, completely eradicating Kyle and thoroughly… seizing the S-grade [life source core] within him, which held immense research value for him!

However, just at the last moment before he was about to act—

A terrifying, unparalleled Mental Energy, far surpassing everyone present, including the Martial God Li Qingcang who was stationed there, and capable of instantly crushing the entire “Sky City” into dust, descended abruptly from the deep reaches of the Universe above the Nine Heavens!

This Mental Energy instantly enveloped the entire arena! It caused all space to solidify!

Immediately after, a roar filled with endless rage and monstrous killing intent, as if from the realm of gods, echoed throughout the entire “Sky City”!

“Junior!”

—“How dare you!!!”

“The younger one can't win, so the older one comes out”!

The enemy's true elder, at the most critical moment, finally… intervened!

A peer-to-peer conflict was about to escalate into the most direct, bloodiest… ultimate game between two top powers!
