178: One punch to destroy the God King

The massive hand of the God King-level Godfiend blotted out the sky and sun, grabbing down with a terrifying power that sought to devour everything!

Countless twisted Evil Eyes in the palm shot out beams of Chaos, attempting to corrode Lin Jingyu's Divine Soul, while a terrifying suction force tried to drag him into the abyss!

The Sky Patrol Guard members far away closed their eyes in despair. Under such pressure, they couldn't even muster the thought of struggling!

"Seeking death!"

A cold light flashed in Lin Jingyu's eyes. The colossal power of his newly advanced Heavenly God Realm perfectly merged with the Rule of Strength, pouring entirely into his right fist!

Chaos Qi Flow gathered frantically, making his fist seem like a miniature Chaos Star, emitting a terrifying aura capable of destroying everything!

He did not dodge, choosing instead the most direct and brutal method—a head-on clash!

"Shatter for me!"

He threw a punch, smashing solidly into the center of the grasping massive hand!

BOOM!!!

It was as if two stars had collided violently!

A terrifying ring-shaped energy shockwave suddenly exploded, instantly leveling the surrounding basin walls by hundreds of meters!

The earth rolled and shattered like waves!

"Aooo—!"

The Godfiend let out a shriek interwoven with pain and fury!

Its massive hand, formed from resentment power and shattered Laws, instantly cracked and disintegrated piece by piece from the point of impact, like fragile glass, the moment it touched Lin Jingyu's fist!

Countless Evil Eyes instantly burst, and the beams of Chaos were annihilated!

Power refined to the extreme crushed all flashy tricks!

Rule of Strength: one force breaks ten thousand Laws!

Crack! Rumble!

After a stalemate lasting less than half a breath, the massive God King-level hand was utterly shattered by Lin Jingyu's incomparably dominant punch!

It transformed into black Qi flow and shattered Laws flying across the sky!

[Ding! Heavily wounded God King-level Godfiend (Projection)! Gained 15,000,000 origin points!]

"Just a projection?" Lin Jingyu raised an eyebrow, sensing the even more terrifying aura of the main body deep underground.

But this did not make him retreat; instead, his Battle Intent grew stronger!

"So what if it's a projection? I'll shatter you all the same!"

Pressing his advantage, his figure moved like lightning, charging directly toward the massive black vortex that had split open the ground!

Taking advantage of the moment the opponent's massive hand was destroyed and it was stunned by the injury, he intended to strike straight for the heart!

"Hmph! Ant! You have angered me!" A surge of furious mental fluctuation came from underground. The entire vortex spun violently, transmitting an even more terrifying suction force to stop Lin Jingyu, while more resentment power tentacles shot out like a black jungle!

"Angry? Then go die!"

The Chaos Divine Light outside Lin Jingyu's body blazed fiercely, like burning Chaos flames. The resentment power tentacles were instantly incinerated into nothingness the moment they approached!

Like a meteor swimming upstream, he forcibly broke through the suction resistance and instantly plunged into the vortex!

The next moment, even more intense and terrifying sounds of fighting and explosions erupted from deep underground!

The entire basin shook violently, as if it were about to completely collapse at any moment!

The Sky Patrol Guard members in the distance were already dumbfounded, their minds blank.

"He... he charged in? He actively rushed into the lair of a God King-level Godfiend?"

"Using the Physical Body of a newly Breakthrough Lower Heaven God to clash head-on with a God King-level Godfiend... this..."

"Monster... this is the true monster..."

...Deep underground lay an even vaster and more terrifying space of resentment power.

The Evil Qi here was almost liquefied. An ugly monster, indescribably huge and formed by the twisted remains and resentments of countless gods and devils, was coiled there—it was the main body of the God King-level Godfiend! The massive hand it extended earlier was merely a projection of a portion of its power.

At this moment, the gigantic mouth on its main body let out a deafening roar, and countless tentacles thicker than mountain ranges whipped frantically toward Lin Jingyu, who had invaded its Domain!

Here, its power was greatly enhanced; every strike contained complete resentment power Laws and terrifying God King-level strength!

"Ant! This is my Domain! You walked right into my trap!" The Godfiend's main body roared, its attacks like a torrential storm.

"Domain? I'll just shatter it with one punch!"

Lin Jingyu's Battle Intent boiled, utilizing his newly acquired power to the extreme!

He didn't even use any Divine Ability, relying solely on his Chaos Divine Body and the Rule of Strength, wielding his fists like two Chaos great hammers, striking left and right!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Every punch landed precisely on an incoming tentacle. The pure power burst forth, forcefully shattering those tentacles infused with the power of Law one by one!

His figure flickered amidst the siege of countless tentacles, moving at extreme speed. Every appearance was inevitably accompanied by the collapse of a tentacle and the Godfiend's painful shriek!

[Rule of Strength comprehension +1%! Current: 76%!]

[Rule of Strength comprehension +1%! Current: 77%!] ...The fierce battle became his best whetstone, rapidly boosting his comprehension of the Rule of Strength!

The Chaos Divine Body was also constantly adapting and absorbing the pressure from the battle, becoming increasingly formidable!

"System! Consume origin points to accelerate the refinement and absorption of Ancient God Essence! Deduce the Great Dao Furnace Art to counter the resentment power Domain!"

[Ding! Consumed 5,000,000 origin points! Refinement accelerated! Deduction complete! Great Dao Furnace Art characteristic activated—Invulnerability to all Laws! resentment power Domain suppression effect halved!]

Immediately, Lin Jingyu felt his body lighten; the suppression from the Domain significantly decreased! His speed surged once more!

"Die!"

He seized an opening and suddenly dashed to the front of the Godfiend's massive main head, tucking his right fist at his waist. All his power was intensely concentrated, and Chaos Qi Flow spun and compressed frantically!

"Chaos Star-Shattering Fist!"

The punch shot out, shattering the sky and earth!

The compressed Chaos power exploded violently, like a star detonating inside the Godfiend's head!

RUMBLE!!!

The Godfiend's massive head was instantly swallowed by endless light and heat, vaporizing!

Even half of its body was completely evaporated by this punch of ultimate destruction!

[Ding! Killed God King-level Godfiend (Main Body)! Gained 80,000,000 origin points! Obtained God King Resentment Core (Incomplete) x1! Obtained a large amount of Divine Essence!]

A massive influx of origin points poured in! The majestic Divine Essence that dissipated after the Godfiend's death was absorbed by Lin Jingyu like a tide!

[Rule of Strength comprehension: 80%!]

[Chaos Divine Body strength increased!]

[Realm stabilized: Lower Heaven God Peak!]

Feeling the surging power within him once again, Lin Jingyu let out a long, hearty cry!

Having just entered the Heavenly God Realm, he was already capable of slaying a God King!

Although it was only a weaker, mindless God King-level Godfiend, this feat was enough to shock the world!

His gaze swept toward the faint dark-gold light spot floating in the air—the Source Seed of Strength (Faint). There was no longer any obstruction!

He reached out and drew it into his palm.

As the Source Seed entered his hand, an incomparably pure Origin of the Rule of Strength, far surpassing all previous energy, immediately surged into his body, making him feel completely comfortable and clarifying his comprehension of strength even further!

"Good stuff! I'll find a safe place to refine it later..."

Just then, his brow suddenly furrowed, and he abruptly looked up toward the direction of the Burial God Abyss entrance!

Almost simultaneously, the System warning sounded!

[Warning! Detected multiple powerful auras rapidly approaching! host location locked! Includes 3 Upper Heavenly Gods, 10 Middle Celestial Gods, suspected of carrying tracking-type King-level Divine Artifact fragments! Identity confirmed: Elite Eradication Squad under God King Heavenly Punishment's "Sky Patrol Guard"!]

"Oh? They have sharp noses. They tracked me to this ghost place so quickly?" Not only did Lin Jingyu show no fear, but a hint of bloodthirsty excitement appeared in his eyes.

"I just finished warming up; you guys are perfect for testing the power of 80% Rule of Strength!"

His figure flashed, instantly rushing out of the ground and returning to the basin. He had already put away the faint Source Seed of Strength.

He stood with his hands behind his back, gazing toward the direction from which the auras came, like a hunter waiting for prey to arrive.

In the distant sky, over a dozen streaks of violent divine light tore through the Evil Qi clouds, rushing fiercely toward his location like meteors, carrying chilling killing intent!

The three auras leading the charge were clearly Upper Heavenly Gods! Their might was monstrous!

The great battle was about to erupt!
