The black sun disappeared, replaced by a giant black hole.
The black hole absorbed light, as if intending to swallow everything around it.
Lin Rong's expression remained unchanged. Sensing the arrival of his supporting clones, he stepped forward and threw a punch.
The other clones followed suit.
Boom!
Fist imprints of various colors collided, instantly altering the world's appearance.
"Close-quarters combat!"
"Yes!"
Lin Rong and his clones advanced towards the black hole, engaging in close-quarters combat.
Boom!
The black hole began to voraciously consume the clones' power.
"Hmph, you'll eventually choke on it!" Lin Rong shouted.
The divine statue, hidden in the shadows, watched this scene with a calm expression.
In its eyes, Lin Rong was courting death, offering it sustenance for growth.
As more and more power was devoured by the black hole, its own strength slowly increased.
Suddenly!
An unexpected change occurred.
Its expression contorted in shock.
"Self-destruct!"
Lin Rong's voice suddenly echoed.
As the words fell, all the clones compressed their energy and detonated simultaneously.
RUMBLE!!!
The colossal roar instantly shattered space.
Crack!
The sheer amount of energy from the self-destruction was too much for the black hole to absorb instantaneously.
Boom!
The black hole cracked, then rapidly disintegrated into fragments.
The residual explosion energy, after shattering the black hole, continued its unimpeded advance, further devastating the vast world.
This was one of the nine fragments of the Black Sky Realm.
It had now formed a miniature Black Sky Realm, possessing the Black Sky Realm's devouring power.
Given enough time, it could potentially ascend to the Great Luo realm and become a new Black Sky Realm.
This was also the Black Sky Realm's plan: if successful, it would split into nine, becoming nine Great Luos, at which point who could oppose it?
Unfortunately.
The plan had been interrupted by Lin Yu before it could even begin.
The sounds of self-destruction continued to erupt, the blast waves striking in all directions.
Finally!
The fragment of the Black Sky Realm could no longer hold on.
Sunlight from the outside world streamed in, illuminating the perpetually dark realm.
A system notification chimed in Lin Yu's ear.
"Ding, you have killed the Black Sky Realm (Great Luo, remnant)..."
Hoo!
The Black Sky Realm was dead.
After triple-checking for safety, Lin Yu emerged from his hiding spot.
Surveying the devastated world, Lin Yu waved his hand, collecting the shattered fragment of the Black Sky Realm into his small world.
"The Black Sky Realm is shattered into fragments, but these materials are incredibly rare and invaluable. Whether for artifact refinement or enhancing the foundation of my small world, they will be of great use!"
He collected the remains of the Black Sky Realm and then cast a sealing spell, sealing the fragment to prevent other fragments of the Black Sky Realm from finding him.
"Once I've killed all the Black Sky Realms, I will merge these fragments into my small world, allowing it to grow to its full potential."
His small world was constantly being upgraded, with dedicated clones tasked with integrating various spatial secret realms to enhance its level. Currently, the small world had already reached the main god level.
Although still referred to as a small world, it was virtually indistinguishable from the great worlds outside.
Moreover, the small world was a manifestation of one of his clones, so there was no fear of backlash; he could enhance it to his heart's content.
Having completed this, he then turned his attention to the Du Ling Great World.
This was a desolate great world, devoid of life.
The land was barren, with only a sliver of vitality remaining.
"This world is vast and cannot be merged into my small world for now. However, once my small world grows into a God King Realm, it will be possible to integrate it."
"Let's leave here for now!"
Lin Yu turned and departed the Du Ling Great World.
He then destroyed the spatial gate of the Du Ling Great World before leaving with peace of mind.
He had already memorized the coordinates of the Du Ling Great World, allowing him to open the spatial gate and enter this world at any time in the future.
Not long after he left.
From where the fragment of the Black Sky Realm had shattered, streams of black gas suddenly emerged.
This gas formed a vortex, resembling a black hole.
Then, a voice echoed.
"Who?"
"My fragment is gone!"
"No matter who you are, I will find you and tear you to shreds!"
The voice soon faded, and the entire Du Ling Great World fell into silence.
...........
"Had enough fun?"
Lin Yu said with a cold expression.
"Hehehe, Big Brother, please don't be angry. Your little brother wasn't just playing; I was going deep into the common folk, gathering information from the grassroots."
Lin Fan said with a fawning smile.
"Then what important information did you obtain?"
Lin Yu took a sip of tea, glancing at him casually.
"Big Brother, I heard that in the depths of the endless void, there is a divine hall. That hall emits black light, and anyone who goes to investigate it disappears. I suspect it's related to the Black Sky Realm."
Lin Fan sat down with a plop and said mysteriously.
"A divine hall?" Lin Yu fell into thought. "It does bear some resemblance to the divine statue in the Du Ling Great World."
"Big Brother, I reckon that even if this divine hall isn't a fragment of the Black Sky Realm, it's an extraordinary place. We can't afford to miss it."
Lin Fan also took a sip of tea, looking expectantly at Lin Yu.
"You brat want to investigate the divine hall?"
Lin Yu said with a teasing smile.
"Big Brother, you've also broken through to the Main God realm, and my clone has God King level strength, but it's not entirely safe. Big Brother, won't you come along?"
Lin Fan looked pleadingly at Lin Yu, awaiting his reply.
"No!"
Lin Yu flatly refused.
He was not yet invincible and would not take unnecessary risks.
Hearing this, Lin Fan sighed in disappointment.
"However, I can let Lin Rong accompany you."
Lin Rong was a permanent clone, characterized by its permanent merged form.
Therefore, Lin Rong was the strongest among all the permanent clones.
The current merged clone was already invincible among the God King realm.
When Lin Rong ventured out, as long as he didn't encounter beings like the Black Sky Realm, he would face no problems.
"That's great! Thank you, Big Brother!"
Lin Fan smiled, stood up, and expressed his gratitude.
"Alright, alright, go ahead. Lin Rong is waiting for you outside!"
Lin Yu waved his hand, urging him to leave quickly.
Lin Fan and Lin Rong departed, and the courtyard returned to silence.
However, his eyes soon lit up.
"This kid actually knows to come back?!"
Lin Yu chuckled.
In the courtyard, the void rippled, and a figure emerged.
"Big Brother, I'm back!"
The person who arrived was none other than Lin Wu, who had gone out to play.
Since his last departure from the Heavenly God Realm, he had not returned.
Lin Yu couldn't be bothered to keep track of what he was doing, so he let him play until he was satisfied and then return.
"Had enough fun?" Lin Yu asked calmly.
Lin Wu's eyes gleamed. Possessing extreme comprehension, his ability to read expressions was also keen. He quickly moved behind Lin Yu and began to massage his shoulders.
"Big Brother, is this pressure okay?"
"More strength!"
"How about this?"
"Still too light."
"This way?"
"Are you trying to murder your main body? Why so much force?"
Lin Wu looked wronged, thinking, "Didn't you tell me to use more strength?"
Lin Yu waved his hand, telling him to sit down.
"What have you been doing these past few days?"
