182: One against three

Three terrifying auras, like three primordial demonic mountains, simultaneously pressed down upon Lin Jingyu!

Every aura far surpassed that of the previous Thunder Prison God King, filled with ancient, savage, and frenzied resentment, yet strangely condensed with some broken Rule of Strength!

They were not living beings, but special Divine Abominations nurtured by the remnants of powerful God Kings who fell here in ancient times, combined with the Evil Qi of the Burial God Abyss and the Rule of Strength from that mysterious Gigantic Skeleton!

They instinctively guarded the light sphere of origin of strength, fighting among themselves while also repelling all outsiders!

Lin Jingyu's arrival instantly made these three mutually wary monsters unite against a common enemy!

The one on the left resembled a Giant Ape, formed from black and crimson Resentment Crystals. It beat its chest and let out a silent roar that shattered space. Its punch, thrown forward, contained unparalleled tyrannical power!

The one on the right was like a multi-headed Serpent Lizard. Innumerable tentacles condensed from Evil Qi tore through the Void Realm, twisting and strangling him from all directions, agile and cunning!

The one in the middle was the most bizarre, resembling a continuously twisting shadow that could devour light and Divine Sense. It spread silently, launching an attack specifically targeting the Divine Soul!

The tripartite joint attack sealed off all of Lin Jingyu's retreat paths. Their offense was vicious and experienced, far surpassing that of rational beings!

"Good timing!"

Lin Jingyu's eyes burned with fervent Battle Intent. Not only did he not fear them, but he actively charged forward!

The Rule of Strength within his body surged and circulated at an unprecedented speed, his Chaos Divine Body roared, and the Great Dao Furnace Art operated frantically!

"First, I'll cripple you, the shadow player!"

He ignored the Giant Ape's heavy punch and the Serpent Lizard's tentacles, aiming directly for the Shadow Divine Abomination in the center!

The Pangu Dharma Appearance vibrated slightly in his Sea of Consciousness, and a supreme will capable of splitting heaven and earth erupted!

The Divine Soul attack launched by the Shadow Divine Abomination was like hitting an unshakable Wall of Chaos; it instantly bounced back. The creature itself let out a sharp shriek, and its twisted shadow dispersed slightly!

Now!

Lin Jingyu's figure darted forward like a phantom, instantly appearing before the core of the Shadow Divine Abomination, thrusting out a simple, direct punch!

Puchi!

The mass of shadow twisted and contracted violently, like a punctured air bladder, letting out a despairing shriek. Then, with a 'peng' sound, it completely exploded, transforming into pure resentment power and shattered Shadow Law fragments!

[Ding! Killed Ancient Shadow Divine Abomination (Special God King Level)! Acquired 120,000,000 origin points! Acquired Shadow Law Fragments (Large Quantity)! Acquired Pure Ancient Resentment Essence x1!]

Instant kill!

At this moment, the Giant Ape's heavy punch and the Serpent Lizard's tentacle attack had already arrived!

"Get lost!"

Lin Jingyu didn't even look, striking with both arms!

His left arm blocked, meeting the Giant Ape's heavy punch head-on! His right fist swept out, smashing toward the countless tentacles!

Boom! Bang!

The Giant Ape's fist, capable of smashing stars, slammed onto his arm, producing an earth-shattering sound, yet it couldn't shake him in the slightest!

Instead, the Giant Ape's arm made a 'kacha' sound from the strain, its Resentment Crystals shattered, and its massive body was sent stumbling backward by the recoil force!

On the other side, Lin Jingyu's right fist was like a devastating storm sweeping away everything. All the coiling tentacles exploded into raw Evil Qi the moment they touched his fist edge!

The residual force of the punch even impacted the Serpent Lizard's main body, instantly shattering several of its heads!

[Ding! Severely wounded Ancient Giant Ape Divine Abomination! Acquired 60,000,000 origin points!]

[Ding! Severely wounded Ancient Serpent Lizard Divine Abomination! Acquired 60,000,000 origin points!]

In a flash of lightning, one died and two were severely wounded!

The remaining two Divine Abominations let out roars of fear and rage. Their remaining instincts finally realized the horror of this “little guy” before them!

They wanted to retreat, but how could Lin Jingyu give them the chance?

"All of you, stay here!"

His figure moved again, appearing as if teleporting above the stumbling Ancient Giant Ape Divine Abomination. He raised his right foot high, then chopped down fiercely like a Primordial Divine Axe!

"Die!"

Kacha! Honglong!

The Ancient Giant Ape Divine Abomination's hard Resentment Crystal skull, along with a small part of its shoulder, was directly split open by Lin Jingyu's kick!

The massive headless body stiffened, crashed heavily to the ground, and transformed into dense Resentment Power Essence!

[Ding! Killed Ancient Giant Ape Divine Abomination (Special God King Level)! Acquired 120,000,000 origin points! Acquired Rule of Strength Law Fragment (Broken) x1! Acquired Pure Ancient Resentment Essence x1!]

The last remaining Serpent Lizard Divine Abomination was scared out of its wits. Its remaining heads let out sharp shrieks, and it turned to burrow into the Underground Evil Vein to escape!

"Think you can escape?"

Lin Jingyu punched out across the air! Void Shock Fist!

Dong!

The power of the punch ignored space, exploding directly at the core of the Serpent Lizard Divine Abomination!

Puchi!

The Serpent Lizard Divine Abomination's massive body suddenly stiffened, then exploded from the inside out into black-green blood mist and Evil Qi filling the sky!

[Ding! Killed Ancient Serpent Lizard Divine Abomination (Special God King Level)! Acquired 120,000,000 origin points! Acquired Poison Evil Law Fragments (Large Quantity)! Acquired Pure Ancient Resentment Essence x1!]

In less than ten breaths, the three Ancient Special Divine Abominations, comparable to or even surpassing ordinary Lower God Kings, were completely annihilated!

[Ding! Reward: Rule of Strength Comprehension greatly enhanced!]

Massive origin points and various Law fragments and essences surged into his body, and the System frantically refined them!

Lin Jingyu stood amidst the scattered energy debris, feeling the tsunami-like surge of power within his body, and couldn't help but let out a long roar!

The roar was like a Dragon's, shaking the entire Underground Space, making it hum!

His gaze intensely fixed on the light sphere of origin of strength suspended above the Gigantic Skeleton's heart. There was now no obstruction!

He walked step by step toward the Gigantic Skeleton. The closer he got, the more he felt the terrifying power contained within the light ball and the ancient majesty emanating from the Gigantic Skeleton.

Just as he was about to touch the light ball—

In the Gigantic Skeleton's hollow eye sockets, two points of faint, yet incredibly pure, golden light suddenly illuminated.

A faint, ancient thought, imbued with supreme majesty, slowly transmitted, no longer the frantic resentment from before, but carrying a hint of relief and expectation:

"Successor... of Strength... I have finally... waited for you..."

"Accept... the final... Trial... and control... the power..."

Following this thought, the light sphere of origin of strength slowly descended, hovering before Lin Jingyu.

At the same time, an inconspicuous bone on the Gigantic Skeleton's chest quietly cracked open, revealing a dark golden Bone Shard that looked ordinary but contained unimaginable energy fluctuations.

[Warning! Detected extremely high concentration of Rule of Strength Origin! Also detected Unknown Chaos Energy Source (Bone Shard)! The combination of the two will trigger unpredictable changes! Risk is extremely high! host, please proceed with caution!]

The System's warning sounded urgently.

Lin Jingyu looked at the light ball and the Bone Shard before him, a trace of madness and resolve flashing in his eyes.

"Risk? Have I, Your Old Man, ever feared risk on this journey?"

He took a deep breath and grabbed both the light ball and the Bone Shard simultaneously with both hands!

"This power, I'll take it!"
