129: The world in your palm

Lin Mu stood in the arena, his posture tall and straight, like a towering pine tree amidst heaven and earth.

His white robe fluttered, and every gesture exuded an air of elegance.

Sixth Elder stared at Lin Mu, his expression shifting between light and shadow.

Three thousand years ago, Zhang Daoling dominated the entire God Realm.

He was widely recognized as the number one God King at that time.

Back then, Sixth Elder had just stepped into the God King Realm.

Three thousand years passed, and everyone rumored that Zhang Daoling had died.

But unexpectedly, he reappeared here today.

Sixth Elder used his divine sense to probe Lin Mu's cultivation.

To his surprise, he found that Lin Mu's body was like a divine source.

As soon as his divine sense approached, it was mercilessly devoured.

He couldn't help but wonder in his heart, "Could it be that Zhang Daoling really broke through to the God Monarch Realm Expert?"

For a moment, he was stunned in place.

The Beautiful Young Woman, seeing this scene, was also somewhat taken aback.

She said in a low voice, "Sixth Elder, what are you staring at? Use the god binding rope to capture him first."

Reminded by the Beautiful Young Woman, Sixth Elder quickly regained his composure.

Given the current situation, he couldn't afford to overthink.

Even if Zhang Daoling was already a God Monarch Realm Expert, he had to make a move and test him first.

Thinking of this, he stretched his hand forward.

Another god binding rope appeared in his hand.

This god binding rope had two parts: a child rope and a mother rope.

The child rope could bind a God King Realm.

The mother rope could bind a God Monarch Realm Expert.

The one that had bound Xiao Yaozi (Carefree Child) earlier was the child rope.

This one was the mother rope, and it was his trump card for daring to attack Zhang Daoling.

The mother rope, with a slight tremor in his hand, vanished.

It reappeared right before Lin Mu's eyes.

It was about to bind Lin Mu.

Sixth Elder's face couldn't help but show a hint of a smile.

However, the next moment, the smile on his face froze.

The usually infallible god binding rope was easily grasped by Lin Mu and couldn't break free.

Lin Mu looked at the rope in his hand, a playful smile on his face.

Back then, the Black Bear Spirit's qiankun bag (cosmic bag) could hold the sun and moon.

Even that couldn't do anything to him.

Let alone this mere god binding rope.

The god binding rope seemed to have gained sentience, struggling continuously in Lin Mu's hand.

But all of it was futile.

Lin Mu was currently using the supreme divine ability he had comprehended during his mortal tribulation.

It was called World in the Palm.

His palm was a world unto itself.

Everything caught in his hand would be bound by his world's rules.

They could only become fish on the chopping block, at Lin Mu's mercy.

The god binding rope struggled for a long time, seeing that it couldn't break free.

It actually let out a wail towards Lin Mu.

Lin Mu smiled calmly, exerting a little force in his hand.

The rules of the World in the Palm shifted.

The sentience of the god binding rope was instantly wiped clean.

Lin Mu split off a wisp of divine sense, instantly taking control of the god binding rope.

He expressionlessly uttered a single word: "Go."

Under his control, the god binding rope instantly flew back towards Sixth Elder.

Sixth Elder had suddenly lost his connection with the god binding rope.

He knew then that the god binding rope was definitely no match for Zhang Daoling.

Seeing the god binding rope flying towards him, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and he grabbed the Beautiful Young Woman with one hand, using her as a shield.

The Beautiful Young Woman hadn't expected Sixth Elder to use her as a scapegoat.

Caught off guard, she was bound tightly by the god binding rope.

She looked at Sixth Elder with hatred in her eyes.

However, Sixth Elder was nowhere to be seen.

He had already fled the scene when he grabbed the Beautiful Young Woman as a human shield.

The Beautiful Young Woman shrieked at the fleeing Sixth Elder, "Sixth Elder, may you die a terrible death!"

As if to echo the Beautiful Young Woman's words,

Sixth Elder, who had already flown out of everyone's sight, inexplicably flew back uncontrollably.

This scene left everyone dumbfounded.

No one understood why Sixth Elder would behave this way.

It wasn't until Lin Mu reached out and grabbed, and Sixth Elder's body rapidly shrunk.

Then, Lin Mu grabbed him in his hand.

Only then did everyone realize what was happening.

They couldn't help but marvel at Lin Mu's power.

In the eyes of outsiders, Sixth Elder was caught in Lin Mu's hand.

But Sixth Elder himself felt as if he was in an endless hell.

Looking around, everything was pitch black.

Only the occasional hellfire briefly illuminated the night sky.

Lin Mu's World in the Palm could change scenes at will according to his thoughts.

And at this moment, it was the hellish scene he had conjured.

Sixth Elder tried his best to control his fear.

The surrounding hellfire constantly appeared, burning his body.

Initially, he could still use magic treasures to resist a bit.

However, as more and more hellfire appeared, Sixth Elder gradually felt powerless.

If this continued, he would eventually be burned to ashes.

His eyes showed a strong will to survive.

As a God King Realm, he had tens of thousands of years of lifespan.

He still had a great future awaiting him.

He shrieked frantically, "I can't die, I can't die!"

However, the merciless hellfire would not heed his screams.

Streams of hellfire continuously attacked him.

After a while longer, Sixth Elder collapsed weakly to the ground.

He was still mumbling, "I don't want to die, please let me go."

Sixth Elder felt as if he had spent a long time in Lin Mu's World in the Palm.

But in the eyes of outsiders, Sixth Elder had only just been caught in Lin Mu's palm when he began to wail and beg for mercy incessantly.

Even the Beautiful Young Woman's eyes showed a hint of unbearable pity.

After a moment of hesitation, she said, "We are from the Ning Family of the Northern Region. Our Old Ancestor of the Ning Family is a renowned God Monarch Realm Expert."

"As long as you let us go, I promise here and now that the grievances between our two families will be written off."

"From now on, we will never bother you again."

The Beautiful Young Woman usually acted without considering the consequences, so it was rare for her to say such a thing.

But Lin Mu heard these words and ignored them.

He said calmly, "Anyone who dares to provoke my Ning Family will only have one outcome."

"And that is death."

As soon as Lin Mu uttered the word 'death',

He clenched his open palm.

Sixth Elder, who was still wailing in his palm, instantly fell silent.

Lin Mu then opened his hand again, and his palm was empty.

Sixth Elder, a dignified God King Realm, died so completely.

The Beautiful Young Woman's eyes were wide with disbelief at this moment.

A hint of fear also showed in her brows.

She was truly scared now; she had never felt death so close to her.

Seeing Lin Mu about to act against her,

She cried out in terror and urgency, "You can't kill me! My maternal grandmother is from the Liu Yang Family!"

"If you dare to kill me, the Liu Yang Family will not let you go!"

Lin Mu paused his actions upon hearing this.

He said indifferently, "The Liu Yang Family you speak of, is it Liu Yang Gong, the Northern God Emperor?"

The Beautiful Young Woman saw that Lin Mu had indeed stopped his actions.

She immediately became arrogant.

"That's right, it's the Liu Yang Family of the Northern God Emperor."

"My maternal grandmother is the younger sister of the current patriarch of the Liu Yang Family."

"I have the bloodline of the Liu Yang Family in me; if you know what's good for you, release me quickly."

Lin Mu couldn't help but laugh after hearing the Beautiful Young Woman's words.

He had just arrived in the God Realm and already encountered someone related to the Liu Yang Family.

After a moment of contemplation, he made a decision.

"You may go."

Lin Mu casually retracted the god binding rope.

The Beautiful Young Woman stretched her limbs and dared not utter any more threats.

She gestured to her subordinates and was about to fly away.

But at this moment, Lin Mu called out to them.

"Stop."

The Beautiful Young Woman's body, flying in mid-air, trembled involuntarily.

She turned around and asked doubtfully, "What, have you changed your mind?"

Lin Mu said calmly, "I only said I would let you go, but I didn't say I would let them go."
