300: Immortal King—Lin Yan!

One moment, the Land of Nothingness above Yanxu Pass was still filled with earth-shaking roars and clamor, resembling a raging sea and furious waves.

The next second, it was as if an invisible giant hand had suddenly snuffed out all sound, plunging it into a deathly silence.

Those Human Race paramount experts from Yanxu Pass, who had just surged forward like a raging tide, seemed to have been instantly struck by a mysterious and eerie immobilization curse. Their figures abruptly halted, their faces still bearing expressions of ferocity and resolve that had not yet had time to fade, yet now they could only stand dumbfounded in place.

Their gazes slowly shifted away from the severed limbs and broken bodies gradually being swallowed by the vast, dense fog, as if moving a thousand-ton boulder.

Then, mechanically, they turned their stiff necks in unison towards the cold-faced young man sitting high upon the emperors seat.

The two Human Race Old Ancestors, Qiu Xia and Gongsun Cai, stared fixedly at the figure beside them, so close at hand. Their expressions were as complex and indescribable as a spilled jar of mixed spices.

"This kid..." Qiu Xia thought to himself, the words swirling on the tip of his tongue before he ultimately swallowed them.

Gongsun Cai also slightly parted his lips, words dying before they were spoken, his heart churning with the same thought.

Forget about those True Immortals and Great Emperors.

This kid had slain two Late Stage Immortal Kings and two Middle Stage Immortal Kings as easily as picking something up, with casual ease.

This was even more outrageous!!!

It simply overturned their long-held understanding of the power hierarchy in the cultivation world.

Whether he genuinely sensed their complex gazes or if there was some other reason in the unseen workings of fate,

Lin Yan, who had just ensured with absolute dominance that all the paramount experts of the Immortal and God races had their Souls Flying Away and Spirits Scattered, showed a faint hint of satisfaction on his face. Then he gently turned his head and looked at Qiu Xia and Gongsun Cai, speaking slowly.

"Old Ancestors."

"Minimize the losses."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of both Qiu Xia and Gongsun Cai turned solemn, as if hearing an urgent military command.

Neither dared to delay or hesitate in the slightest, immediately shouting in unison.

"End the battle!"

This command was like a sharp bolt of lightning, instantly dispelling the Chaos and astonishment in everyone's hearts.

All the Human Race paramount experts snapped out of their daze as if waking from a dream and responded in unison.

"Yes!"

Then, their figures transformed into streams of light, striding towards the starry expanse below.

Not long after.

The starry expanse, which had been filled with the surging sounds of spiritual power from intense collisions of Void Realm experts and the dull roars of Warship fleets crashing into each other, gradually returned to calm, as if a violent storm had finally subsided.

Lin Yan gave a slight nod towards Qiu Xia and Gongsun Cai, who seemed not yet recovered from this series of shocking changes, and his consciousness quietly slipped into the System.

[No questioning, no tentative probing after questioning, and certainly no further questioning and entanglement after a slight probing move. There was only this straightforward appearance, sweeping aside all opponents with an absolutely crushing posture.]

[Forcefully obliterated the Allied Forces of the Immortal and God races at the Human Race's heavily fortified pass. domineering index: super star level. charge value: 2200%.]

2200%... Lin Yan pondered slightly.

"To Breakthrough to Immortal King, one needs Peak True Immortal cultivation and the fifth layer of the Law of Space?"

As soon as his question arose, the System's cold and mechanical voice promptly rang in his mind.

"Ding!"

"Yes."

"After the Host meets the requirements of Peak True Immortal and the fifth layer of the Law of Space, 1000% charge value will be consumed for the Breakthrough."

Lin Yan nodded in understanding.

His gaze swept casually over Qiu Xia and Gongsun Cai as he said politely,

"Old Ancestors."

"You attend to your matters first. I'm going to make a Breakthrough."

As soon as the words fell.

Before the two, who were clearly startled into a daze by his words, could react.

"Advance the Law of Space by one layer. Breakthrough to Immortal King!" The command echoed silently.

In an instant.

It was as if heaven and earth were collapsing, and the Universe was turning upside down.

BOOM——!

A deafening roar suddenly erupted.

This tremendous sound seemed as if it would overturn the entire Land of Nothingness. Boundless spiritual power, like ignited star rivers, frantically converged towards Lin Yan.

Lin Yan, still seated upon the emperors seat, had his robes billowing violently as if caught in the eye of a cosmic storm. Each billow seemed capable of triggering a tsunami of spiritual power.

The powerful force of the Law of Space surged like a raging cosmic torrent, wildly rushing and rampaging in all directions.

Wherever it passed, space seemed as fragile as paper, easily torn and twisted, presenting a scene of Chaos and violence.

This is...!

The pupils of Qiu Xia and Gongsun Cai contracted sharply, as if witnessing the most inconceivable event in the world. Their eyes were filled with shock and horror, their hearts feeling as if tightly clenched by an invisible hand, their heartbeats almost stopping.

Immediately after.

They saw that Lin Yan, whose Law of Space had instantly advanced by one layer, had the spiritual power around his body erupt violently like awakened ancient Vicious Beasts. The immense energy raged like a furious galactic hurricane.

In a frenzied and resolute manner, it swept towards his body. Each strand of energy seemed capable of piercing through stars, yet now they all converged upon his form, as if to devour him whole and reshape his Physical Body and Soul.

BOOM——!

The Land of Nothingness trembled violently as if struck by a fatal blow.

The vast, dense fog that had originally pervaded the area was brutally torn apart by a rude and unreasonable giant hand, revealing the deep and mysterious dark space behind it.

Countless spatial cracks, like the gaping maws of ferocious beasts, continuously opened and closed, spreading and releasing heart-palpitating spatial turbulence.

Immortal... A long, drawn-out sound seemed to have traversed time and space from the endless ancient era, gently echoing throughout heaven and earth.

It was a mysterious and ancient melody, continuous and lingering, containing endless vicissitudes and majesty, announcing the birth of a king among Immortals.

Immortal... Immortal King...!

Qiu Xia and Gongsun Cai felt their throats tighten as if strangled by an invisible hand, parched and dry. Their hearts felt as if struck by a heavy hammer, beating even more violently.

A twenty-one-year-old Immortal King!!!

It was as if a thunderclap exploded in their minds, blasting their thoughts into blankness.

How much time had they themselves spent to reach this Realm?

Ten Martial Eras? Or perhaps eleven?

Time flowed on, and memories of the past seemed sealed in the dust of years, blurred and unclear.

But they knew deeply that it had been an extremely long period, as vast as the transformation of seas into mulberry fields.

And now, this young man before them had actually set foot in this Realm that countless people could not reach even after exhausting their entire lives, at the mere age of twenty-one!

Really... The corner of Qiu Xia's mouth twitched slightly. His heart was filled with intertwined shock and complex emotions, which ultimately transformed into an exclamation tinged with helplessness and bitterness.

"He's really a monster...!!"

Gongsun Cai also let out bitter, consecutive laughs, his eyes full of complexity and emotion.

They had just personally witnessed the birth of a legend. Their state of mind simply could not calm down.

Nonsense! Who in their place could possibly calm down?!
