Chapter 675: Chapter 268: Desolate Ancient Battle Body, One-Punch Annihilation
Without a second glance, Lin Ye strode forward.
He was like a walking Purification Divine Domain. Hell itself retreated wherever he passed.
...
In the endless spatial turbulence, a figure plowed through recklessly.
But his destination was crystal clear.
The next moment, as he emerged from the turbulence and steadied himself, even someone as worldly as Hou Guanghe couldn’t help but feel his pupils shrink.
The world before him was one he, too, was visiting for the first time... the Dark Domain.
Hou Guanghe concealed his aura, hovering in the void and moving at high speed.
His Spiritual Power spread out like a vast net.
Before long, he discovered the presence of another human aura several hundred kilometers away.
In the very next instant, Hou Guanghe crossed this vast distance, arriving in the sky above Lin Ye’s location.
His gaze focused, his heart stirred.
A figure, maintaining a dragonized form and covered entirely in jet-black Scale Armor, was walking across this defiled land.
A three-meter radius around him was an area of absolute sacred ground.
Countless bizarre creatures from the Dark Domain, reeking of terrifying corruption, rushed toward him like moths to a flame, only to be silently annihilated within the invisible domain surrounding him.
Hou Guanghe retracted his aura completely, his form melting into the surrounding darkness as he hovered high in the sky, his eyes filled with disbelief.
’He couldn’t help but equate what Lin Ye was displaying with something completely beyond his reach at this stage—’
’A Law!’
’To be able to survive in the Dark Domain without being corrupted was already absurd enough.’
’But this kid...’
’He seemed to be the absolute bane of this world’s existence!’
Hou Guanghe did not reveal himself immediately.
He wanted to see just what Lin Ye’s limits were.
...
Lin Ye ignored the endless fodder around him.
His Spiritual Power, too, was now spreading out from him like silken threads.
Before long, Lin Ye locked onto a massive, writhing umbilical cord on the distant horizon, one that stretched between heaven and earth.
’Even if that thing isn’t the one that dragged Yui Hanyi away, it’s definitely connected to the mastermind.’
’Its other end might even connect to the true body of that evil entity.’
Lin Ye’s figure flickered, transforming into an afterimage. He used Instant Body in conjunction with the short-range spatial teleportation from his Intelligent Mechanization Transformation to dash rapidly in that direction!
As he drew closer, the full form of the enormous umbilical cord gradually came into view.
Lin Ye followed the cord, pressing deeper and deeper.
Within the Dark Domain, the concepts of time and space were somewhat vague.
Lin Ye had no idea how much time had passed.
He couldn’t even be sure if he was heading in the right direction.
But fortunately, Lin Ye’s luck was good. Before long, he no longer needed to rely on his Spiritual Power; he could already see what the cord was connected to, displayed in its entirety before his eyes.
It was a mountain.
A living mountain range formed from endless, writhing, jet-black flesh and tangled umbilical cords!
Its surface was covered with billions of pulsing orifices and countless tormented, twisted faces from all manner of creatures.
The entire mountain was breathing with a slow, rhythmic pulse.
And at the mountain’s peak, where countless of the thickest umbilical cords converged, Yui Hanyi was suspended in mid-air, her eyes shut tight.
Her body was enveloped by dozens of cords. Her face showed no sign of struggle, only an eerie tranquility.
It was as if she were about to return to a mother’s embrace.
Lin Ye’s gaze fell upon the mountain of flesh.
["She Who Gives Birth to Myriad Things" · Nicolas]
[Level: LV.??]
[Evolutionary Tier: 3.36]
A chill ran down Lin Ye’s spine.
’The level is two question marks!’
’The last time the system displayed such a notation was when I faced Yin Liulan!’
’This could only mean one thing.’
’The true power level of this unnamable entity before me is, at the very least, comparable to a Martial Artist in the Celestial Human Realm!’
"Hehehe..."
A seductive and bewitching laugh, yet one that seemed to be an overlap of thousands of different voices, rang directly within Lin Ye’s soul.
"A fresh, delicious little thing... brimming with life force..."
"You... seem to call yourselves human...?"
"How laughable. Mere lowly natives from the outer realms, and you dare compare yourselves to humans..."
"But since you’ve delivered yourself to my doorstep... I won’t be holding back..."
Above the mountain of flesh, a colossal female face, formed from the fusion of countless human faces, slowly emerged, gazing at Lin Ye with great interest.
"Speaking of which... I should thank you. If you hadn’t suppressed her seal, allowing her to open the gate so wide, it would have taken me several more centuries to gain complete control over her."
Before the words had even faded.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
Thousands of jet-black umbilical cords, like arrows loosed from a bow, shot through the air from all directions, heading for Lin Ye with ear-splitting shrieks!
Lin Ye just stood there quietly.
The next moment, a bizarre scene unfolded.
The moment the countless, unstoppable umbilical cords came within a three-meter radius of Lin Ye, they seemed to touch upon some supreme, absolute taboo!
They abruptly went rigid, then began to struggle and twitch violently as if suffering unimaginable pain.
The black substance on their surface rapidly faded away, revealing the withered, gray tissue beneath, and then...
they disintegrated inch by inch, turning to ash!
For the first time, a look of shock and pain appeared on the colossal female face.
"What is this power?!"
Suddenly, Lin Ye’s figure moved.
He didn’t choose to retreat. Instead, like a nuclear bomb, he charged head-on into the endless tide of umbilical cords!
