428: Tiger Star

This is absolutely a case of beating the grass to startle the snake.

Dov was incredibly aggrieved; he never imagined that years of effort would ultimately benefit Warner.

In reality, the cooperation between the two beasts was always fraught with hidden intentions, each harboring their own schemes.

It was merely a competition to see who was more capable.

Now that Warner had played his trump card, Dov had no way to counter, and in the end, he could only swallow his defeat with resentment.

If he had known Warner's trump card was so powerful, why would Dov have gotten involved?

He contributed beasts and money, only to end up with nothing, which was utterly miserable.

Dov even felt that if it weren't for the family power behind Filiche, Warner would be more qualified than Filiche to be the beast in charge of the Extremely Cold Universe.

Aggrieved as he was, at a time like this, Dov was also in a difficult position.

After all, in Luo Ji's eyes, he had already been branded an enemy, so he could only continue down this path.

Despite his helplessness, Dov was not a good-tempered Cosmic Beast, so he immediately spoke with a sarcastic tone, saying, "Brother Warner, you are truly capable, to possess such a powerful trump card."

"If that's the case, why did you drag me onto your war chariot? Couldn't you have just gotten rid of Luo Ji yourself?"

Facing Dov's sarcasm, Warner immediately explained, "Brother Dov, it's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding."

"The favor of a Super Mighty Being is extremely hard to come by. If it weren't to be absolutely foolproof, I wouldn't have used it at all."

"After all, that's a beast's favor far more valuable than countless origins."

"However, the two of us alone couldn't handle it, so I had no choice but to make a painful sacrifice and reveal my final trump card."

"Brother Dov, rest assured, in the end, the two of us will still compete fairly, based on our abilities, for the position of the beast in charge of the Extremely Cold Universe."

"Even if one loses the competition, don't be disheartened. The winner will need to help the loser obtain the qualification for the next beast in charge as a reward."

"We are an unbreakable alliance; how can we allow a small matter like this to create a rift between us?"

No one would believe in fair competition, let alone the extremely astute Dov.

However, since Warner had already given his promise, and there was still some profit to be made, Dov finally relented and said,

"We are indeed an unbreakable alliance, and getting rid of Luo Ji is our common goal."

"But you know my situation; I can't compare to your vast family wealth and abundant funds."

"So, for this request to the Phoenix Bird, I can contribute a maximum of ten thousand units of origin."

"If the other party demands more, then I am helpless."

Originally, Warner thought the alliance had fallen apart, but he didn't expect Dov to still be willing to contribute ten thousand units of origin to help him get rid of Luo Ji. Warner was suddenly overjoyed and said,

"No problem."

"Brother Dov, rest assured, we will win this battle, and Luo Ji will surely die."

"The position of the beast in charge of the Extremely Cold Universe? We will seize it with ease."

"Alright, I'll go make the arrangements now."

"This time, Luo Ji will absolutely have no chance of survival."

...A conspiracy against Luo Ji was brewing, but fortunately, he was not an arrogant Cosmic Beast, and he contacted Lin Tianwei at the first opportunity.

With Lin Tianwei as his backing, Luo Ji was completely at ease.

At least in Luo Ji's eyes, there was absolutely no Cosmic Beast in the entire Extremely Cold Universe that could be stronger than Lin Tianwei.

Lin Tianwei didn't know that Luo Ji had so much confidence in him.

Of course.

Even if Lin Tianwei knew, he would only praise Luo Ji for having some insight, capable of seeing things other Cosmic Beasts couldn't.

It was precisely because of this excellent insight that Lin Tianwei was willing to give Luo Ji a trial opportunity.

Three months!

Three months had passed since Lin Tianwei began comprehending the Law Book.

While still comprehending the Law Book, Lin Tianwei's efficiency this time was surprisingly fast.

After all, he had already successfully obtained the Legendary Beast Might Talent template in the Law Arena.

All that was left was the final push, to condense a trace of the Law Power representing Tigers Might in the real world through his comprehension of the Law Book.

In the black cube space, Lin Tianwei took a deep breath.

After comprehending a large number of Law Books, he had finally made thorough preparations.

Next, he only needed to use his comprehension of the Tigers Might Talent and his comprehension of laws to condense a trace of Law Power in the real world.

This process seemed simple, but in reality, it was extremely difficult, no less challenging than comprehending a domain.

The most important thing was that Lin Tianwei's strength was too low, making his efforts often yield half the results for twice the work.

But it didn't matter; for Lin Tianwei, it just meant spending a little more time.

As Lin Tianwei expected, after a year of effort, Lin Tianwei finally managed to condense a trace of Tigers Might Law Power.

Watching the golden light excitedly jumping before him, Lin Tianwei did not resist but directly guided it into his inner world.

Condensing the Law Power representing Tigers Might was just the beginning of forming a Talent Planet; next, it remained to be seen whether it could establish itself in Lin Tianwei's inner world.

Perhaps because it was not a physical object, or perhaps because this trace of Law Power itself contained immense strength,

after entering Lin Tianwei's inner world, it did not disrupt the existing balance, but merely found a quiet place and silently floated there,

as if it were just the most inconspicuous glimmer in the vast universe.

However, this seemingly insignificant glimmer contained extremely terrifying energy; if it were to explode, it could even completely destroy Lin Tianwei's inner world.

Without hesitation, under Lin Tianwei's control, the Talent Power representing the Tigers Might Talent surged out, rapidly pouring into his inner world.

As soon as they entered Lin Tianwei's inner world, these Talent Powers seemed to be guided, frantically converging towards the location of the Law Power.

Like making cotton candy, the originally silent Law Power suddenly began to spin, continuously absorbing the surrounding Talent Power, expanding, and finally transforming into a giant Talent Star.

The boundless Star Power, with the continuous rotation of the Talent Star, was continuously generated, constantly nourishing and strengthening itself.

This Tigers Might Star still looked somewhat ethereal and unreal at this time, and the Star Power it produced was not abundant,

completely incomparable to Hikaru's Gravity Law Star within his body.

But Lin Tianwei believed that if he gave it enough time to develop, it would eventually grow strong.

As for the plan to forge a Body of Talents?

For Lin Tianwei currently, it was still a bit premature. After all, only with enough accumulation could Lin Tianwei possibly put it into practice.

Of course, more than a year of effort was not in vain.

At least it proved that Lin Tianwei's method of forging a Body of Talents was feasible, allowing his conceived Talent Star to completely break free from the shackles of matter.

Moreover, when the time was ripe, Lin Tianwei could even transform his existing Talent Stars, causing them to evolve into Talent Stars like the Tigers Might Star.

And now?

What Lin Tianwei needed to do was continue to strive, to climb to a higher position in the Law Arena.

Not only to acquire enough points to forge his Body of Talents, but also for the secret treasure left by the Heavensea God-King in the evaluation.

This was a secret treasure left by a God-King; even Lin Tianwei found it hard not to be tempted.

Thinking this, Lin Tianwei returned to the waiting room and once again initiated the next match.

At this time, his ranking had already reached thirteenth in the Law Arena; he only needed a few more matches to achieve the feat of topping the Law Arena.

He wanted to see what kind of exceptionally talented individual could have consistently dominated the Law Arena for hundreds of millions of years.

Making such a genius his defeated opponent, just thinking about it made Lin Tianwei find it very interesting.

"Ding, congratulations on a successful match. Your opponent is Chaos."

"Name: Chaos."

"Ranking: 7."

"Evaluation: Extraordinary (enjoy a 500% challenge point bonus upon victory)."

"Please confirm whether to enter the Arena."

"Ding, you have confirmed entry into the Arena. Please wait patiently for your opponent's selection."

"Ding, since Chaos is a phantom left by an ancient powerful being, it will default to confirming entry into the Arena."

"Ding, the match has begun. The venue for this match is: Chaotic Domain."

After the familiar process, Lin Tianwei once again entered the Law Arena.

Many Cosmic Beasts were also watching this match, the only thing missing was the so-called betting market, Terende's betting market.

Terende had lost a fortune due to his unauthorized change in odds last time and was currently swamped with work.

But it didn't matter; sooner or later, a new betting market would emerge to replace the black market where Terende operated.

Such immense profits, how could they not attract certain interested Cosmic Beasts to flock to it?

It's just unknown if their judgment would be as poor as Terende's, ultimately leading to a complete loss.

Facing an incredibly powerful opponent once again, perhaps freed from the constraints of the betting market, the spectating Cosmic Beasts could express themselves more freely.

: "Lin's efficiency in starting matches is truly absurdly high. In just under two years, he has started another match."

"Does he not need any so-called summary or improvement?"

"This kind of frantic matching behavior is truly difficult for a beast to comprehend."

Although the time connected to the Law Arena is very precious, with a maximum limit of one hundred years.

However, blindly participating in matches, like Lin Tianwei, and always participating in the highest difficulty matches, is not a wise choice.

After all, points are not acquired just by participating in a match.

Failure will not only cause you to lose your base points completely, but also mess with a beast's mentality, causing them to lose confidence.

Moreover, there is also a penalty mechanism in the Law Arena; repeatedly participating in matches of too low difficulty will only double the match difficulty.

After all, the Heavensea God-King's original intention in building the Law Arena was to cultivate strong individuals; how could he allow you to farm points in such a simple manner?

If I bully weak opponents fast enough, points won't catch up to me?

Impossible, absolutely impossible. You will eventually be sanctioned by the matching mechanism.

It was precisely because of this that they were so bewildered by Lin Tianwei's actions.

If one doesn't have enough strength to participate in matches, especially such high-difficulty ones, it's no different from wasting time.

If you encounter an opponent with a malicious sense of humor, they might even deliberately waste your time, relying on their phantom identity.

After all, phantoms are just phantoms, not real existences; they can even participate in hundreds of matches simultaneously.

There's no possibility of wasting both parties' time; only your own time is wasted.

Moreover, once the level is high enough, when the battle is fiercely contested, decades or even hundreds of years are possible.

Of course.

Generally, Cosmic Beasts would not do such irrational things, as wasting an enemy's time is also wasting their own time.

Unless there's a deep-seated grudge, such a scenario would simply not occur.

But the phantoms in the Law Arena are different; they are perfectly capable of such outrageous behavior, and these phantoms with malicious tendencies often do such things.

What could be more satisfying to a beast than stifling a genius?

It must be stifling a group of geniuses.

As luck would have it, Chaos was precisely a Cosmic Beast with such an undesirable habit.

However, because his ranking was high enough, ordinary Cosmic Beasts usually wouldn't fall into his hands.

: "That's right, blindly engaging in matches is not advisable, especially since he's been matched with that scoundrel, Chaos."

"There was once a Cosmic Beast whose time he wasted for decades, resulting in that match with Chaos being his last match in the Law Arena."

"Chaos, who hasn't encountered an opponent in a long time, will absolutely not waste this hard-won prey that delivered itself to him."

"If I were Lin, I would abandon confirming the match immediately."

"Encountering any Cosmic Beast near this ranking would be infinitely better than encountering Chaos."

: "It's a pity, there's no 'if' in this world. Lin has already confirmed the match, and Chaos won't give up this rare toy."

"I believe he will have a very pleasant time playing with Chaos."

: "Is there a possibility that we have all underestimated Lin's strength too much? His impressive 100% win rate is not for show."

"If Lin's strength is greater than Chaos', then as long as Lin can win this battle, all the problems you mentioned won't exist."

"It's a real shame this match doesn't have a betting market, otherwise I'd bet heavily on Lin."

"Dreaming feels so good!"

: "Tsk tsk tsk, you're still a bit too naive."

"Putting aside the facts, even if Lin's strength is greater than Chaos', the outcome of this match can only be a timeout."

"Many times, strength isn't everything. Some extremely special domains or laws can completely defy logic and achieve things that seem utterly impossible."

"Chaos has been able to stand firm in the Law Arena for so long, so he naturally has real capabilities."

"Unfortunately, his domain is extremely tricky, an existence that can break common sense."

"Believe me, Lin has no chance of winning this match, at most, it will be a draw." (End of Chapter)
