188: Chapter 188: Kill them all!

The Tyrant escaped from the Void Realm, its eyes fixed on the faceless figure in mid-air, intertwined with dark cyan and gold.

It once again felt the Aura of the Creator, and the connection stemming from the depths of its Soul had increased several-fold.

"Roar!"

The giant beast no longer wailed, turning to return to the battlefield and crashing into the chaotic mechanical army below.

High above, the restlessness in the compound eyes of the Six-Winged Insect King faded.

The mental network spread out once again.

The six hundred thousand-strong army, which had stalled due to the loss of their commander's Aura, erupted with an even more terrifying killing intent than before.

The Blood Slaughter Infantry advanced with heavy shields, while the Tyrant Demons trampled over the wreckage of the mechanical monsters, tearing them apart. The battle tipped in one direction.

Above, the temperature of Vice Monitor Chu Xiaoxiao's core processor soared to the critical point.

"Warning! Unable to parse target energy structure!"

"Warning! Target danger Rank increased to: High! High! High!"

She could not understand how a Fifth-tier Demigod, after suffering a Law-level curse and the self-destruction of six demigods, could appear in this form that violated the conservation of energy.

But the underlying logic provided the only optimal solution: eliminate him.

"Directive issued: Execute final elimination. Remaining Mechanical Deities, attack with full force!"

Five Mechanical Deities pounced toward Lin Yuan, while the other three deities were dispatched to restrain Bai Ye.

Her own body surged with ink-like Mechanical Plague, transforming into a black cloud and following closely behind.

Not far away, Bai Ye was controlling the Frost Ancient Dragon to freeze the Flying Swords in front of him with a breath of dragon fire.

He glanced at the five metallic figures charging aggressively toward Lin Yuan, feeling a chill in his heart.

While waving his bone staff to parry the siege of the three Mechanical Deities in front of him, Bai Ye kept seventy percent of his attention on Lin Yuan.

He made up his mind: if that dark cyan demon showed even the slightest sign of flagging, or displayed signs of killing indiscriminately without recognizing anyone, he would run away immediately.

Staying on the same battlefield as such a monster that defied common sense was too much for his heart.

In mid-air, Lin Yuan's energy-formed body trembled slightly.

Immersed in the microscopic vision of the Law, he perceived five streams of energy filled with killing intent attempting to tear his existence apart.

His head, lacking flesh and features, turned slowly. Two gray gleams in his eye sockets locked onto the space deity charging in the front.

A space deity had its arms modified into two high-energy space-cutting blades, crossed in a cross shape, aiming straight for Lin Yuan's waist and abdomen.

Lin Yuan did not dodge; he raised his dark cyan right claw, fingers spread, and grasped at the two space rifts capable of devouring even light.

Sizzle!

The moment Lin Yuan's fingertips touched the space-cutting blades, the gray-black patterns flowing on his fingertips erupted.

The space power contained within the cutting blades was forcibly judged as "reaching the end of its life" the instant it contacted the End and Origin power.

Not only did the cut smooth over, but the mechanical blades on the deity's arms and the space energy circuits inside its core aged and disintegrated within one-thousandth of a second.

The two mechanical blades turned into a sky full of gray-white rust, falling with a rustling sound.

Before this deity could trigger a retreat, Lin Yuan had already taken a step.

Ignoring the constraints of physical space, he appeared directly in front of the machine body.

His dark cyan palm thrust forward, piercing through three layers of high-density heavy chest armor and grasping the mechanical core inside.

"Die."

Lin Yuan's will vibrated in the Void Realm.

As he squeezed his five fingers, gray-black Death Qi surged in.

The high-energy core, capable of supporting a demigod's high-intensity combat for a hundred years, instantly turned into a piece of dead-gray scrap metal with no energy reaction.

One strike, instant kill.

The second and third Mechanical Deities arrived simultaneously.

One released a gravity magnetic field, while the other caused the metal particles in the surrounding air to produce high-frequency resonance nearing collapse.

Golden divine fire swirled in Lin Yuan's eyes.

[Origin] activated.

The gravity magnetic field and high-frequency resonance waves, the moment they were applied to him, were decomposed and reduced by the golden flames into the most basic free energy.

Then, with a breath, he sucked them into his body, turning them into fuel for his own divine fire.

Facing dual attacks of physics and energy, Lin Yuan, in his pure energy form, displayed nearly invincible immunity.

He swept his left hand, and the dark cyan air wave transformed into an End and Origin blade hundreds of meters long.

The blade light flashed.

The two were cut off at the waist.

Eroded by the power of End and Origin, the two demigod machine bodies dissipated in the wind while still in mid-air, before they could even hit the ground.

The two deities behind, Void and Devour, attempted to disintegrate Lin Yuan's energy body directly from the conceptual level.

Lin Yuan couldn't even be bothered to look.

He spread his arms, and the golden patterns on his body surface converged into a two-colored vortex with a diameter of one kilometer.

Withering and Flourishing, End and Origin.

The moment the vortex rotated, it forcibly tampered with the Law order of the surrounding heaven and earth.

The Void was reversed into the Origin of life, and the Devourer was forcibly burst by the power of End and Origin.

The two demigods struggled desperately in the vortex, but it was useless, and they were quickly ground into fragments.

It took no more than ten seconds in total.

The five Starry Sky University Prodigy Mechanical Demigods were completely wiped out.

The black cloud of Mechanical Plague that Vice Monitor Chu Xiaoxiao had transformed into had only charged halfway before coming to a screeching halt in mid-air.

In her core database, composed of countless nanorobots, a disorder called "system crash" was born for the first time.

"Escape..." The directive had just been issued from the core when Lin Yuan appeared above the black cloud.

He stretched out his hands and plunged them directly into the dense cloud of nanomachines.

The fire of End and Origin spread across the connection network of the nano-insects.

A series of crackling explosions connected in the air.

"No—" Vice Monitor Chu Xiaoxiao's mechanical electronic voice had just let out a short scream when the entire black cloud was swallowed by the gray-black flames.

Following the fall of Vice Monitor Chu Xiaoxiao and the group of Mechanical Deities, the three Mechanical Deities entangled with Bai Ye in the distance froze.

Having lost Vice Monitor Chu Xiaoxiao, their machine bodies were covered in cracks.

Lin Yuan turned his head, and the gray gleams in his eye sockets swept over those three hunks of iron.

He brought his right index and middle fingers together and pointed into the air three times.

Three gray-black marks, ignoring spatial distance, were imprinted directly onto the foreheads of the three Mechanical Deities.

Dissipation, death! Less than half a second.

Thus, all the divine combat power of Golden Toad City was completely wiped out.

The mechanical army below, having lost the coordination of their divine kin, was left with only the indigenous mechanical creatures.

Under the encirclement of the Tyrant and the Abyssal Blood Army, they quickly turned into piles of scrap metal.

Bai Ye rode on the back of the Frost Ancient Dragon, his whole being numb.

He watched helplessly as Lin Yuan, in less than half a minute, crushed the elites of Starry Sky University and Vice Monitor Chu Xiaoxiao into fragments as if he were pinching a few ants to death.

When Lin Yuan's faceless head slowly turned, and his gaze fell upon him, Bai Ye's legs went weak, and he almost slid off the dragon's back.

"Don't, don't, don't... Brother Lin! I'm on your side! Absolutely on your side!"

Bai Ye raised his hands high, even throwing his bone staff onto the dragon's back, his smile uglier than crying.

He had seen those seventh-tier and eighth-tier demigod seniors take action in the inner court of Starry Sky University.

But even those figures standing at the pinnacle of the demigod pyramid did not possess the sense of overwhelming power that Lin Yuan had just displayed!

This was no longer a question of the amount of energy, but a gap in the level of Law.

Watching Bai Ye's terrified, ready-to-kneel appearance, Lin Yuan didn't know what to say.

Was this guy really that scared?

Although his current state was indeed a bit scary, his brain wasn't broken.

How could he attack an ally who had just helped him out?

Lin Yuan did not explain.

The sound emitted by his pure energy body would cause resonance in the surrounding space, which sounded too terrifying.

He withdrew his gaze, and his perception spread out in all directions.

There was still one sneaky bastard left to deal with.

He remembered very clearly that curse from just now that had severed his life track and forcibly pushed him to be reborn from the jaws of death.

Divine fire flickered in his eye sockets, and Lin Yuan quickly locked onto an obscure Aura thirty kilometers away.

His figure flickered slightly, merging into the Void Realm.

Thirty kilometers away, in the shadow of a stone pillar, Cheng E leaned his back against the cold stone, sliding to the ground.

His eyelids were as heavy as if they had lead weights attached, and even opening them a crack was extremely difficult.

"Get up quickly... Run..." Cheng E roared in his heart, commanding himself to mobilize his last bit of strength to tear through space and flee.

But his body was like a pile of mud, and every cell was sending a message to his brain: It's too tiring, why run? It's better to just sleep to death.

Just as he was struggling against extreme laziness, the Void Realm in front of him split open.

A pair of large feet, gathered from dark cyan energy, landed in front of him.

Cheng E struggled to lift his eyelids.

What came into view was a god-demon, three meters tall, with the fire of destruction and Origin flowing around its body.

Those gray, pupil-less eye sockets were looking down at him as if looking at a dead object.

Cheng E's heart sank to the bottom.

He wanted to say something, but the side effects of laziness made him lose even the desire to open his mouth.

Lin Yuan didn't waste any words.

Dealing with a viper hiding in the shadows and stabbing in the back, saying even half a word more was a waste of time.

His dark cyan right hand reached out, grabbed Cheng E by the neck, and lifted him up from the ground with one hand.

[Origin] Law was activated in reverse.

The residual demigod blood, life Origin, and even the divine fire inside Cheng E turned into a rolling torrent at this moment, surging wildly into Lin Yuan's arm.

"Ugh..." Cheng E's limbs hung weakly, and his body shriveled at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Finally, it turned into a gray-white skeleton, which, blown by the wind, scattered all over the ground.

With the infusion of the massive high-level life Origin, Lin Yuan's pure energy-formed body began to change.

Within the illusory dark cyan energy, golden bones began to reorganize.

Then came the blood vessels, nerves, muscle fibers...

[Origin] purified Cheng E's life Origin into the purest biomass, rapidly filling Lin Yuan's shell.

The three-meter-tall god-demon body began to shrink, gradually recovering to a slender figure of about 1.8 meters.

Fair skin, rich with explosive power, covered the body, and short black hair grew out again.

In just ten seconds, Lin Yuan exited the "Demon State" and restored his flesh-and-blood body.

However, because his previous armor and blood-colored greatsword had been vaporized in the self-destruction of the six demigods, Lin Yuan was now completely naked.

Feeling the cool wind blow, Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow.

With a thought, the residual dark golden Divine Power on his body surface wove itself into a set of durable, black-gold slim-fitting robes with a faint metallic luster.

Lin Yuan let out a long breath of turbid air and sat down on a clean stone slab nearby.

Recalling the state of constructing his body with Laws just now, a flash of apprehension crossed his eyes.

It was too powerful, but also too dangerous.

In that state, because he had lost his Physical Body as an "anchor," his human thinking was being rapidly assimilated by the high-dimensional Laws.

He could clearly feel that if he maintained that state for more than an hour, the emotions, memories, and rationality belonging to "Lin Yuan" would disintegrate.

Divinity would dominate everything, and he would turn into an executor who only knew how to deprive and reconstruct, completely becoming one with the Dao.

"The Physical Body is the boat, while the Divine Soul and Laws are the ones crossing the sea. Before the boat breaks, one must never easily abandon it." Lin Yuan warned himself inwardly.

However, he did not feel that this forbidden form was impossible to control.

Since he had already pushed open this door and experienced this high-dimensional power, as long as he took it step by step in the future, one day, this "Law-formed body" would become his strongest trump card for life after death.

Just as Lin Yuan was calculating his gains, a sound of wind breaking came from the sky.

Bai Ye landed on the Frost Ancient Dragon a hundred meters away, both man and dragon maintaining a posture ready to turn and flee at any moment.

When he saw that Lin Yuan had returned to his normal human appearance and was wearing robes woven from Divine Power, Bai Ye let out a long sigh of relief and raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Brother Lin... that move you just used... is it some kind of forbidden divine technique?" Bai Ye leaned closer, his eyes full of shock.

To have your Physical Body vaporized and your life track severed, not only did you not die, but you resurrected on the spot, and your combat power skyrocketed a hundredfold.

After killing people, you could even conveniently drain the enemy's life force to replenish your Physical Body.

What kind of rogue, closed-loop divine technique is this!

Even those so-called Divine-Grade secret techniques in the Starry Sky University library aren't this perverted!

He, Bai Ye, majored in the undead system and considered his understanding of life and death invincible among his peers.

But compared to the methods Lin Yuan just displayed, his own bit of undead practice was just child's play.
