"Brother, what's wrong with you?"
"This place was destroyed by insects. All the beings inside were killed and became places for the insects to lay eggs. Then, it should be these insects that broke through the domain wall of this realm and discovered the Nine Rings Domain."
All evidence suggested that insects had destroyed domain walls, killing and breeding in the various realms.
"Hiss, this is truly a terrifying race!"
"And, since they are insects, they might have techniques for fusion as well!"
"I need to pick up the pace."
"All clones, listen to my orders: search the void and kill the Fallen Ones!"
The order was given, and the clones scattered, searching for broken voids and killing Fallen Ones.
Within a realm, there were countless voids.
Although this realm's beings had all been devoured and its broken voids were innumerable, these Fallen Ones were the best source of upgrade points.
As he moved continuously, Fallen Ones were killed one after another.
During this time, Lin Yu also discovered several intact voids. These voids were not yet broken and thus had not spawned Fallen Ones.
At this moment.
An old man stood before him.
The old man had white hair and well-developed muscles, standing at least two meters tall.
However, this muscular old man stood before him with a sense of unease.
He was the strongest being in this realm, having survived by chance through a death-replacement technique, and had remained hidden until now.
Only after the insects left did he dare to emerge, to recreate life and usher in a new era.
However, over countless years, the void had become broken, and nine out of ten of the Great Daos in this world had disappeared. In all these years, only a handful of individuals had managed to cultivate to the Great Luo realm.
He understood that this realm was no longer suitable for cultivation.
He had not expected to encounter visitors from another realm after so many years.
Fortunately, he was relieved that this time, the person who had arrived was not an insect but a humanoid creature like himself.
Although their forms differed slightly, there was a possibility of communication.
However, he was quickly astonished because only one person had arrived, and this person possessed five trillion clones.
It was outrageous!
Having lived for so long, he had never witnessed such an absurd ability.
When he saw Lin Yu, he knew the vast difference in strength and did not resist, allowing Lin Yu to bring him along.
"Your Excellency, please ask whatever you wish to know," the old man said with a bitter smile.
Their fate had indeed been a difficult one.
Lin Yu smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, there's no need to be nervous. I wish to understand the past of your realm. I hope you can tell me the truth."
A cold glint flashed in his eyes, which the old man caught.
The old man's heart leaped. He was certain that if he dared to conceal anything, he would face dire consequences. He dared not hide anything.
"Your Excellency, please ask. This old one will tell you everything he knows."
"What is the name of this realm?"
"Broken Realm," the old man sighed. "We only had the concept of a realm after the insect race invaded. Because this realm was ravaged by the insects and became dilapidated, I named it the Broken Realm."
Lin Yu nodded and directly asked, "Mmm, I also want to ask you, were these the insects that invaded you back then?"
Lin Yu conjured an image of the insect.
Seeing this, the old man quickly nodded. "Yes, these were the insects that invaded us, and not just these, but dozens of other types of insects. Those insects were overwhelming, and we were no match for their Grand Unity realm experts. We suffered a bitter defeat."
Lin Yu also sighed with emotion.
In its prime, this void only had ten Great Daos, and not even a single Grand Unity realm expert had been born.
It was no wonder they had been bullied to such an extent by the insects.
Lin Yu asked again, "Did those insects dismember your void?"
"Yes, they devoured the world's origin, not even sparing the corpses of the dead. They stayed here for three thousand years, breeding a large number of larvae, and then they left."
Recalling the past, the old man's heart was filled with resentment, yet he was powerless. The feeling of helplessness tormented him; for countless years, he had longed for revenge every moment.
Lin Yu asked a few more questions, which basically confirmed his suspicions.
One day, the insects broke through the domain wall and discovered this void.
Then, using their swarm tactics, they dismembered the void, devoured its origin, killed all the living beings, and used their flesh and blood to lay eggs. They plundered all the resources of this void.
After plundering everything, they shattered the domain wall and discovered the Nine Rings Domain, whereupon they left this realm and entered the Nine Rings Domain.
However, the Nine Rings Domain was already very powerful, and there was also the Demon Realm, which had also broken through a domain wall. Thus, the insects did not attack forcefully but waited for an opportunity.
They finally waited for the Nine Rings Domain and the Demon Realm to wage war. Taking advantage of their mutual weakening, they seized the opportunity to strike.
The outcome was evident: both the Nine Rings Domain and the Demon Realm were defeated.
The six Supreme Beings of the Demon Realm and the Nine Rings Domain all vanished without a trace. Based on the current clues, it is speculated that they were captured and became sustenance for the Insect Ancestor to grow stronger.
They might have been imprisoned in that mysterious starry sky.
As for why the Nine Rings Domain was not completely destroyed, it is unknown. After all, since the insect race could break through domain walls, the Nine Rings Domain was not unique. Perhaps they considered the Nine Rings Domain unsuitable for insect reproduction.
After sorting through this information, Lin Yu felt a heavy weight in his heart.
However, he soon frowned.
Because he had just killed a Grand Unity realm insect, it might have attracted the attention of the insect higher-ups.
Looking at the old man before him, Lin Yu waved his hand and sent him into his small world.
Not only that, but he also sent the beings created by this old man into his small world.
After doing all this, he looked at this realm, intending to capture all its Great Daos and merge them into the Blue Star.
However, this was a colossal undertaking that would consume too much time, so he had to reluctantly give up.
This realm had experienced the great battle of the past, and even the insects had not managed to plunder all its Great Daos, which showed the difficulty of capturing them.
"Continue to kill the Fallen Ones!"
"Let none escape, kill them all!"
Lin Yu's order was given, and all clones immediately sprang into action.
His soul had been strengthened after fusion, and the control distance for his clones had increased by hundreds of billions of times.
He could kill all the Fallen Ones in this realm with hardly any movement.
Time passed, and a year went by in the blink of an eye.
In this year, he finally wiped out all the Fallen Ones in this realm.
As soon as he finished killing all the Fallen Ones, Lin Yu planned to leave.
In his view, this realm held no further value.
Suddenly.
An anomaly occurred.
From all the voids, streaks of white light emerged, and these lights converged towards Lin Yu.
Lin Yu instinctively wanted to block.
The system's voice sounded in his ear.
"Host, you have killed the Fallen Ones, and the world is finally freed from its suffering. The numerous broken worlds, in gratitude, have gathered their blessings to activate one of your divine abilities. This blessing is beneficial and harmless!"
Lin Yu heard this and rejoiced in his heart.
He opened his hands, allowing the light spots to merge into his body.
Boom!
His consciousness ascended, leaving his body and entering a place of immeasurable height.
Here, he saw countless clusters of light.
These clusters were the consciousnesses of worlds, and numerous world consciousnesses had gathered here.
The black light on their bodies was rapidly receding.
Lin Yu's arrival caused all the clusters of light to erupt.
As if they had gained life, they collectively separated a wisp of light, which merged together and entered Lin Yu's brow.
Boom!
Lin Yu's consciousness returned to his body.
