261: Lin Yan!!!

At the moment when the sky-obscuring Warship fleets of the Human Race and the Spirit and Yao Races, carrying boundless might and killing intent, fiercely charged towards each other.

Beneath the Land of Nothingness, atop the Void Realm.

Within that region of starry space, tacitly acknowledged as the imminent battleground for an earth-shattering collision between the Saint Rank powerhouses of both sides.

A seemingly extremely inconspicuous armored figure silently blended into the crowd of Human Race Saint Rank Martial Artists.

Boom... boom... boom... Clusters of pitch-black, ink-like flames violently erupted from beneath Lin Yan's feet, which seemed to be teleporting forward, only to be extinguished just as swiftly.

As this figure advanced at an unimaginable speed, in the blink of an eye, it abruptly surged to the very forefront of the crowd.

Its speed was so astonishingly fast that it instantly far surpassed everyone present!

The eyes of all the Human Race Saint Rank Martial Artists narrowed slightly, their gazes tightly locked onto that gradually receding back, revealing unconcealable astonishment in their eyes.

What is this?!

Even the Saint Kings at the forefront were filled with shock in their hearts.

Who is this?!

He was so fast they could only see his back!

When everyone's eyes fell upon the wantonly fluttering black-gold cloak and black-gold war armor, and also upon the Black Flames that, though fleeting, had still been caught by their sight.

It was like a thunderbolt tearing across the sky, suddenly flashing through the depths of their minds!

A name with sufficient qualifications for them to know, or rather, a name that was already no secret in the starry expanse, instantly surfaced in everyone's heart!

Lin Yan!!!

It's him?!!!

In everyone's hearts, a storm of shock surged simultaneously, their faces filled with expressions of utter disbelief.

Impossible! How could he appear here! And he seems to possess strength surpassing even Saint Kings!

Moreover, judging by his current, unstoppable momentum, he clearly intends to charge the enemy formation alone!

To charge the formation of Saint Rank Martial Artists led by over twenty Spirit and Yao Race Saint Kings!

This... what kind of audacity is this!

However, all the doubts that instantly flashed through their minds could only stop there.

Because.

Lin Yan was already a mere three steps away from the group of Spirit and Yao Race Saint Rank Martial Artists!

Crystal clear sounds of ridicule came from the front of the two races' formation.

"Hahaha!" A burly Yao Race Saint King sneered derisively, "Under such a large-scale battle, someone actually dares to break away from the main force and charge the formation alone!"

"The Human Race, no matter how many years pass, remains just as foolish!" A cold-faced Spirit Race Saint King snorted disdainfully.

"It seems to be a little thing focused on superficial appearances, hehe..." An elderly Yao Race Saint King shook his head with a faint smile.

"Probably just a newly promoted Saint King who thinks he's invincible, an arrogant and conceited fool." An elderly Spirit Race Saint King, a crone, chimed in.

"Indeed, but he won't have a chance to realize it, because some lessons... are fatal..."

Amidst the numerous piercing sounds of ridicule, the sound of footsteps treading on the void continued to be heard.

Boom——!

As if the entire space trembled because of it.

Black Flames rose, then vanished in an instant.

Hmm?

Not only the Saint Kings of the two races, but even some Saint Rank Invincibles narrowed their eyes slightly.

They keenly sensed something unusual.

"This... this is..."

"Are you trying to say it's that Lin Yan from the Human Race?"

"Judging by this attire and characteristics, it does bear an extremely close resemblance to that Lin Yan."

"But... how is this possible? How could the Human Race have let him out? And with his previous strength, how could he have become a Saint King?"

"Furthermore, judging by the Aura he's displaying now, it also differs greatly from the intelligence we possess..."

Before the words could even finish.

Another "Boom——!" sounded as the second step heavily landed.

Immediately after, a supreme Aura that shook the starry expanse violently erupted from the cold-faced Lin Yan.

In an instant, the overwhelming black flame phenomenon that swept through the Void Realm surged forth like a raging torrent of heat, spreading across the starry sky behind him.

Wherever it passed, the Void Realm twisted and deformed, as if about to devour everything, causing hearts to palpitate with fear.

The Saint Rank Martial Artists of the two races, who had been so imposing moments before, instantly halted their steps, their expressions drastically changing.

"Lin Yan!!!"

An unbelievable roar like thunder echoed forth.

It reached the Land of Nothingness above, and also reverberated in the God Rank battle circles and the Warship collision zones below and further below, where the clash had not yet occurred.

What? Numerous incredulous gazes were cast from the Land of Nothingness.

What? Countless figures within the God Rank battle circles and the densely packed Warships looked up in shock.

Regardless, none of this could exert even the slightest influence on the figure taking its third step.

Only a deafening "Boom!" was heard, like a thunderclap exploding, ear-splitting!

As Lin Yan took that step, his originally pitch-black, deep eyes suddenly became suffused with soul-stirring golden light. Wisp after wisp of ethereal, fairyland-like black-golden Qi slowly drifted from the corners of his eyes, like smoke, like mist, dreamlike and illusory.

At the same time.

Rumble——!

The overwhelming black flame phenomenon surging forward was also, in the blink of an eye, enveloped by a layer of supremely noble, dazzling golden edges, shining brilliantly and complementing each other, appearing even more mysterious and majestic.

In an instant, the two supreme Auras fused together at an inconceivable speed.

Finally, they transformed into an unparalleled, supreme Aura, carrying the overbearing and arrogant contempt for all living beings, as if all things in the world must bow before it.

And Lin Yan, at precisely this moment, appeared directly in front of the group of Saint Rank Martial Artists from the two races, as if teleporting, the heavenly emperor halberd in hand.

"The Overbearing One!!!" Accompanied by a thunderous roar that resounded throughout the entire starry expanse.

A heavy stomp, as if having traversed from Ancient Times, fiercely slammed into the hearts of everyone from the three races outside Xuanqing Pass.

Everyone felt their hearts sink violently, as if crushed by a towering mountain peak, making it difficult to breathe.

They saw Lin Yan's Physical Body expanding at a speed that left them dumbfounded, transforming in an instant into a giant standing tall within the starry sky.

At the same time.

Boom rumble rumble——!

A deafening roar resounded.

The heavenly emperor halberd, which grew synchronously with Lin Yan's body, was wielded mightily in his giant hand with bulging veins, sweeping without restraint towards the ranks of the two races' Saint Rank Martial Artists.

This Void Realm, originally capable of withstanding battles at the Saint King level, now groaned under the onslaught of this terrifying power, directly torn open by an indescribably huge spatial rift.

Faced with such a horrifying scene.

Both races, whether those lofty Saint King powerhouses, Saint Rank Invincibles, or high grade, Medium Grade, or even low grade Saint Rank Martial Artists, all had absolutely no time for further thought.

"Block it!!!"

Amidst the deafening roars.

All the Saint Rank Martial Artists of the two races exerted every ounce of their strength, pushing their power to the limit.

In an instant, multicolored Dao Realm streams of light intertwined, forming a dazzlingly brilliant curtain of light, rushing to meet the overwhelmingly powerful, thunderous strike hurtling towards them.
