"Chaos Nether Eye!"
A ripple of soul power suddenly surged into Lin Yu's consciousness.
Countless extremely chaotic eyes appeared in his mind.
Streams of chaotic light magnified within his consciousness, disturbing his thoughts and making him irritable.
"All clones, counterattack!" Lin Yu gritted his teeth against the mental discomfort and shouted.
However, his voice seemed to fall into a bottomless pit. The clones he remembered did not appear.
Instead, they materialized before a colossal stone tablet.
This tablet stood several thousand meters tall, densely covered with eyes of various shapes.
All these eyes were staring intently at him.
"Where is this?" Lin Yu asked instinctively.
Though his heart pounded, he maintained a calm demeanor.
"Outsider from another realm, you have disrupted the order of the Sea of Chaos. You are granted death!"
The stone tablet emitted a hoarse, sinister voice. The sound seemed to carry a peculiar power that made one’s heart churn with agitation.
"What are you? You think you can kill me?" Lin Yu felt the surging power within him and, remembering his 'Thought Clone Technique' for revival, felt fearless.
At worst, he could just revive and try again after dying.
The stone tablet laughed heartily. "Outsider from another realm, you are incredibly rude. I shall let you die in endless torment."
"It is not impossible to tell you my identity!"
"I am the Black Sky God. If I had not fallen to this realm in that ancient battle, you would not have had the chance to see me!"
Black Sky God?
Could it be related to the Black Sky Realm?
If his guess was correct, that dark world that descended from beyond the heavens and imparted the God-Slaying Technique was the Black Sky Realm.
This would also explain why a Black Sky God appeared before him.
Was this fellow perhaps a god from the Black Sky Realm?
But weren't gods supposed to be benevolent and righteous? Why did he look so sinister?
"If I had not carelessly fallen back then, I would not have been struck down to this place!"
"The Sea of Chaos in this realm is already in ruins and has become my possession. You, an outsider, are so ignorant, disturbing the Sea of Chaos. You truly deserve death!"
Lin Yu scoffed. "You are already in ruins, how can you be my opponent?"
As his words fell, all the eyes on the tablet-like stone opened.
"Let me show you how I will send you to your death!"
"Void Illusion Realm!"
"Great Dream Feather Heaven!"
"Die!"
With his final word, the scenery before Lin Yu drastically changed. A world filled with ruins and balloons floating in the sky appeared before his eyes.
The next moment.
All the balloons targeted him and launched an assault.
Rumble!!!
Each balloon was equivalent to an early-stage King of Gods. Their combined attack on Lin Yu made it difficult for him to resist.
"This is bad, I seem to have left the Celestial God Realm!"
"What exactly is going on?"
"Weren't we told the Celestial God Realm was a prison?"
"How did I get out?"
His voice was not loud, but the stone tablet heard it.
"Hahaha, the Celestial God Realm has long been in ruins, it is no longer a prison. Back then, that fellow used this realm as bait to lure my Black Sky Realm here..."
The stone tablet stopped mid-sentence, leaving Lin Yu somewhat disappointed.
After a long while, Lin Yu realized he wouldn't get any more information. He smiled.
"World Split!"
The integrated clone, at five million levels, was already incredibly powerful. Even among the King of Gods, it was a top-tier existence.
Moreover, the Giant's skill, 'World Split,' possessed an inherent destructive power towards worlds.
Instantly, a white axe light descended, shattering the surrounding space.
Crack!
Crack!
Crack!
A series of sounds rang out. The world filled with balloons shattered like glass before his eyes.
"Ah!" the stone tablet let out a tragic cry.
"Impossible! How could you break this True Illusion Realm?"
It shouted in disbelief. Although it was extremely weak now, it had once been a top-tier King of Gods. Even though it was almost killed by that mysterious being in a single palm strike during that ancient battle, falling into the Sea of Chaos and barely surviving until now.
Still, its foundation remained. In this realm, it was more than capable of dominating.
Besides other Black Sky Gods who had fallen here like itself, it had virtually no enemies.
But the giant before it had shattered the True Illusion Realm it prided itself on.
Lin Yu roared again. "Realm Shatter!"
Rumble!!!
A tremendous roar echoed for tens of thousands of miles.
The entire world trembled, and then it completely shattered into a fleeting illusion.
The illusion dissipated, and the stone tablet reappeared before him.
Lin Yu panted slightly, gritted his teeth, raised his axe, and pointed it at the stone tablet. "What other tricks do you have?"
The stone tablet shouted, "Outsider from another realm, you have violated this realm's rules. Power like yours should not exist!"
"Then you should exist?" Lin Yu questioned.
The stone tablet fell silent.
It was a Black Sky God who had fallen from the Black Sky Realm in the ancient battle. There were many other Black Sky Gods who had fallen with it.
Most of them were killed by that mysterious being, with only a few surviving.
After the ancient battle, the Celestial God Realm was in disarray. They had also fallen into the Celestial God Realm, but the outcome of that battle remained unknown.
When it awoke from its coma, both the Black Sky Realm and that mysterious being were gone, their whereabouts unknown.
"I have taken root in this realm, and you are an outsider. Naturally, I must protect the Sea of Chaos," the stone tablet argued.
Lin Yu sneered. "You are nothing but invaders, yet you shamelessly find justifications for yourselves. I am the one invited by this realm's Celestial God tribe, with the purpose of repairing this realm. You are parasites that must be eliminated!"
"Presumptuous!" the stone tablet roared.
Innumerable eyes opened, and illusory light intertwined, weaving an illusion.
Lin Yu bit his tongue to maintain his clarity.
"Azure Lotus Creation!"
An azure lotus flew out from beneath his feet, evolving into a primitive world.
This world could only exist for a moment, but it was enough.
Lin Yu opened his large hand, grabbed the newly evolved primitive world, and used it as a weapon, smashing it towards the stone tablet.
Clang!
A deafening sound.
Lin Yu did not stop, continuing to smash.
Clang clang clang clang!!!!
"Damn outsider, stop!"
Although it was a Black Sky God from the Black Sky Realm, and its main body was a stone tablet, it could not withstand such repeated blows.
How could Lin Yu possibly listen? He continued to smash, blow after blow.
"Damn it, Soul Death Eye!"
Suddenly, a hidden eye revealed itself at the center of the stone tablet. The moment this eye appeared, all other eyes turned into gray stone eyes, devoid of their luster.
As soon as it opened, Lin Yu faced a sense of immense danger.
"Die!"
Gray light shot out from that eye, piercing into Lin Yu's integrated clone in the blink of an eye.
This light ignored the physical body and directly targeted the sea of consciousness.
Clang!
The gray light entered the sea of consciousness and was blocked by the shield of the Soul Dome talent.
However, the Soul Dome talent was only SSS-grade. It could only hold on for a moment.
With a crack, the shield shattered. The gray light surged forward, determined to extinguish Lin Yu's soul.
Lin Yu's expression changed slightly, a sense of urgency rising within him.
"Protection of the Gods!" he whispered.
"Master, I am here!" the dark sailboat emerged, respectfully replying.
Lin Yu's soul figure pointed at the invading gray light and said, "Block it!"
"Yes!"
Boom!
The dark sailboat charged forward, but it only lasted for a moment before being knocked away.
"Master, this power is too strong!"
"Block it for me and buy me some time, even just a moment!" Lin Yu shouted.
"Yes!" The dark sailboat could only charge forward again. Fortunately, its material was special, and its defense was strong, allowing it to delay for now.
However, a prolonged defense would inevitably lead to a breakdown. If a solution could not be found, he would eventually be defeated.
Lin Yu's heart was anxious. He gritted his teeth and said, "System, use all remaining upgrade points to upgrade the talent: Soul Dome!"
"Ding, you can cross two levels. You can upgrade the talent Soul Dome to SSSS-grade. Do you wish to upgrade?"
"Yes!"
