645: Chapter 645: Wanhua Tianshu, simulating all things, stealing the sky and changing the day

However, it was still half a step too late!

The silver light flashed fiercely, becoming extremely dazzling, then instantly collapsed, and the three people within it completely vanished without a trace!

The world-destroying attack missed, not hitting Lin Yu and the two others, but it nearly pierced through Flame Sea City!

The two Imperishable Realm Old Ancestors hovered in mid-air, looking at the ravaged, heavily damaged core area of the War Division, sensing the completely vanished spatial fluctuations. Their faces were ashen, and they trembled with rage, finally letting out a roar that shattered the star river:

"Ah!!! Find out all information about this person for me!!!"

However, their furious roars could no longer be heard by Lin Yu.

...

The familiar transmission fluctuations gradually subsided, and the figures of Lin Yu and the two others solidified, already situated outside the Shan He Battle Academy's territory.

However, the sight before him made Lin Yu's heart sink.

He saw a majestic giant city completely enveloped by an enormous, glowing shield flowing with countless earthy-yellow runes. The shield emitted a terrifying pressure as heavy as the earth, isolating inside from outside.

All who entered or exited, regardless of status, had to be illuminated by an ancient stone mirror at the city gate. The mirror's light swept over them, seemingly able to penetrate to the very source of their souls, making any disguise futile before it.

"The reaction was so quick!"

Lin Yu's eyes narrowed slightly.

He underestimated the speed and determination with which the Four Great Academies shared intelligence.

The earth-shattering changes that had just occurred at the Flame Sea Spirit Academy had already put the Shan He Battle Academy into its highest alert state.

Forcibly breaking in, even if successful, would inevitably cause immense turmoil and alert the enemy, completely contrary to his original intention of quietly rescuing someone.

More importantly, the other party had clearly linked Shangguan Yunxi's rescue to the possibility of a powerful enemy targeting the Four Great Academies.

Although the "Lin Yu" on the Star Dao Academy side had been in "seclusion," temporarily clearing him of suspicion, this disguise was like a paper window, unable to withstand close scrutiny.

Once the high-ranking officials of the Four Great Academies calmed down and cross-referenced information, suspicious gazes would eventually fall upon him.

At that time, the high-ranking officials of the Star Dao Academy would only need to forcibly enter his small courtyard to find it empty, and all disguises would be exposed.

"I can't delay here any longer..."

Lin Yu's thoughts raced, and he instantly made a decision.

The Eternal Old Man was like a sword hanging over his head; his path to proving Imperishable would never stop.

Once he succeeded, the first one to be eliminated would undoubtedly be himself, the biggest variable and threat.

At that time, there would be no place for him in all the heavens and myriad realms.

The only option now was to take a desperate gamble, to seize that sliver of initiative before the Eternal Old Man!

Success meant boundless possibilities, with the chaotic rules under his control.

Failure... Lin Yu shook his head vigorously, dispelling the distracting thoughts—he absolutely could not fail!

His eyes held only the grim determination of someone who had burned his bridges and an unprecedented solemnity.

His closest people had largely been brought back to his side. As for old friends like White Xiao Ya and Huang Daxian, he had no time to spare for them now and could only pray for their safety.

Now, he was racing against time.

"Ling Yun, return to the Star Dao Academy!"

Lin Yu decisively ordered.

Returning to the Star Dao Academy immediately to show himself was the best option to clear his suspicion and buy the last bit of time.

Ling Yun had been by Lin Yu's side all this time and had long realized what Lin Yu was doing.

It was precisely because she knew that she understood what Lin Yu was about to face. She couldn't help with other things, but the only thing she could do was protect him.

Using her abilities to help Lin Yu complete one transmission after another, thereby turning danger into safety.

She didn't hesitate, and the power of transmission surged again.

A faint light flickered, and the figures of the three quietly disappeared outside the Shan He Battle Academy. In the next moment, they had safely returned to the Star Dao Academy, to Lin Yu's small courtyard.

In the small courtyard.

Lin Yu quickly brought Ling Yun and Li Ti back into his Inner World, tidied his robes, and with a normal expression, pushed the door open. He even deliberately stretched, as if he had just finished a short period of secluded cultivation and adjustment.

At the same time, he exposed his person and aura to everyone.

He believed that at this moment, high-ranking officials like City Lord Qing Xuan had definitely received the news from the Flame Sea Spirit Academy, just like the Shan He Battle Academy, and were closely watching him. Showing himself now was the best time to clear his suspicion.

And indeed, that was the case.

The moment he appeared, in the void around the small courtyard, two powerful and secretive divine senses subtly rippled, then quietly retreated.

It was precisely City Lord Qing Xuan and Vice City Lord Gu Yun.

"It seems... it wasn't him."

In the distant core hall, City Lord Qing Xuan breathed a slight sigh of relief and said to Gu Yun, "His aura is stable, with no signs of intense consumption or battle, which doesn't match the terrifying commotion reported from Flame Sea."

Old Ancestor Gu Yun slowly nodded, "I just don't know when such a powerful expert appeared in the chaos, killing several people in the Flame Sea Spirit Academy's main branch and leaving safely!"

Qing Xuan shook his head.

He was also shocked by the news from the Flame Sea Spirit Academy.

The Four Great Academies had been undefeated in the chaos for millions of years, and their only arch-enemy, the Eternal Old Man, had suffered greatly at their hands.

Now, a person who could come and go freely in their main branch suddenly appeared, which was truly terrifying.

On the other side, Lin Yu sensed the retreating monitoring divine senses and felt a little relieved.

But his actions did not stop at all.

He did not go directly to the Dawn Tower, but rather, his figure flickered, and he arrived at Tang Yue's residence.

"Lin Yu? How... you're back?"

Tang Yue was a little surprised to see him.

She had some guesses in her heart.

After all, she had provided the coordinates of the Three Great Academies.

But she didn't expect Lin Yu to return so quickly.

"Time is short, so I'll make it brief."

Lin Yu's expression was serious, "I am about to do something big, and the Star Dao Academy, even the Four Great Academies, may no longer have a place for me. I once promised to take you away, and now is the time to fulfill that promise. If you trust me, do not resist."

He no longer had time to explain much and directly stated his intentions.

After all, what he was about to do was to take away the core item of the Four Great Academies.

The Great Dao light cluster came from all the personnel of the Four Great Academies; it was their life.

Once he took it, he would have to leave immediately and could not come back for her. If he didn't take Tang Yue, she might be implicated.

Tang Yue was his only friend, so he naturally couldn't harm her.

Tang Yue looked at the undeniable determination in his eyes and a hint of deep-seated urgency. She barely hesitated, smiling sweetly: "I trust you."

She had already prepared herself.

Lin Yu nodded, waved his hand, and brought her into his Inner World for proper resettlement.

Having done all this, his gaze turned towards the towering Dawn Tower, his eyes as sharp as blades.

The next step was to steal the light brain's Great Dao light cluster!

His figure moved, and in the next instant, he appeared at the Dawn Tower.

Then he walked openly into the tower, his gaze fixed on the enormous light brain in the center.

Lin Yu took a deep breath, immediately came to the platform, and then pressed his hands on the light brain.

"Myriad Transformation Heavenly Pivot, simulate all things, steal from heaven and exchange for sun!"

He shouted inwardly, activating his Immortal Power and the creative divine power of the Myriad Transformation Heavenly Pivot to their utmost limits simultaneously!
