Boom!
A mushroom cloud rose into the sky.
Immediately after, Lin Yu heard the system's prompt.
"Ding, you have killed Fuyao Fan (Golden Immortal)..."
"Ding, you have killed Suoyue Suo (Golden Immortal)..."
"Ding, you have killed Konglong Shibei (Golden Immortal)..."
"Ding, you have killed..."
As Lin Rong's self-detonation echoed, the world was filled with a roar, a vast expanse of white, obscuring everything.
Lin Yu's consciousness was disconnected, indicating that Lin Rong had died in the self-detonation.
However, the constant system prompts in his ears proved that numerous beings, presumed to be Black Heaven Gods, had also perished in the blast.
Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief and mentally commanded, "Merge clone!"
Boom!
Tens of millions of clones around him merged, reforming Lin Rong.
Lin Rong was reborn, still with a smile on his face.
"Main body, I have fulfilled my mission!"
Lin Yu nodded, his expression relieved. "I have always trusted you with tasks. Please, go one more time and confirm if they are all truly dead."
Lin Rong grunted, and without a word, stepped through the spatial gate.
He reappeared in the Great Duling World and quickly flew to the location of the recent self-detonation.
He discovered that the space itself had shattered after the explosion. He saw the remains of those killed by the blast and, with a wave of his hand, collected them into his small world.
Then, he flew forward.
He was not far from the divine statue now.
He moved at extreme speed, soon arriving before the colossal statue.
Gazing at the towering spherical idol, he murmured, "Main body, are you there?"
Lin Yu's consciousness was still attached to him. "Yes, this divine statue is likely a part of the Black Heaven Realm."
"Main body, should we destroy it or..."
Lin Yu shook his head. "It is slumbering. Do not awaken it."
From the words of the enemies, Lin Yu had gathered some information.
For instance, this statue was their master, currently in a deep sleep. Disturbing it rashly might lead to unforeseen consequences.
Facing the Black Heaven God, even Lin Yu had to be cautious.
Lin Rong nodded. "The main body's considerations are always meticulous."
"However, we cannot do nothing. Set up some restrictions here."
Lin Yu gave further instructions and then tasked Lin Rong with guarding the area before withdrawing.
If this truly was the Black Heaven Realm, no amount of caution would be excessive.
After all, the Black Heaven Realm was a Da Luo level existence, and one could never be certain of its myriad mysterious abilities.
Blue Star.
Lin Yu opened his eyes, glanced around, and cast several formations to seal the area. He then dispatched an integrated clone to guard the place before leaving with peace of mind.
He planned to explore the secrets of the divine statue after his realm broke through to the God King realm.
"I'm almost gathering enough upgrade points!" he muttered to himself.
At that moment, his wrist communicator began to beep.
"Someone's looking for me?"
Lin Yu opened his wrist communicator and found that Elder Ge had sent him many messages.
He clicked them open.
Elder Ge: "Lin Yu, Lin Yu, are you there?"
Elder Ge: "Something big has happened, and we need you to handle it."
Lin Yu then opened the messages from Sword God.
Sword God: "This is too much! They carelessly lost their treasure and are blaming us."
Sword God: "Lin Yu, you don't need to come back, I can handle it!"
Sword God: "It's been a while since I've drawn my sword, and they've forgotten my might! It seems I need to show them that the Human Race has me, Sword God, besides you, Lin Yu!"
Lin Yu's lips curled as he finished reading.
Sword God's talent was immense, and his progress had been rapid, especially after inheriting the legacy of the Sword Ancestor.
He had only taken two months to advance from Lower God to Upper God, and then directly broke through to the God King realm.
Although he was only at the early stage of the God King realm, his legacy was extraordinary, coupled with his profound understanding of the Way of the Sword.
Therefore, among those in the early God King realm, he was virtually unrivaled.
"Teacher's strength is indeed vastly different from before, but it seems difficult for him to control the situation. I'll send a clone over, and I'll also go secretly to see what exactly has happened."
Opening the chat window, he replied to Elder Ge: "I understand!"
He then messaged Sword God: "Teacher, go all out!"
Closing his wrist communicator, he flew towards the All Races Alliance base.
At the All Races Alliance base.
Elder Ge repeatedly checked his wrist communicator, and seeing no reply from Lin Yu, he grew anxious.
"Hurry up and reply."
His secretary saw this and comforted him, "Perhaps Lord Lin Yu has something important to attend to and didn't have time to reply. Please don't worry, Lord Lin Yu won't abandon us."
Elder Ge sighed.
"I know that. But those people are clearly taking advantage of their numbers to cause trouble."
Outside the All Races Alliance building at this moment, a group of powerful beings were holding up banners with large characters written on them.
'Return our treasures!'
'Requesting the All Races Alliance to thoroughly investigate the highway robbers.'
'The Human Race is inactive, requesting the removal of the Human Race Alliance leader.'
'...'
Each slogan directly targeted the Human Race.
Although some people were already trying to maintain order, the alien races were standing by watching.
They offered no assistance, and the Human Race's enforcement officers, who were only at the Lower God realm, were completely ineffective.
At this very moment.
A group of outsiders stood on a tall building, looking down at the scene below.
One of them said, "If we do this, will there be trouble?"
His meaning was clear, and everyone understood.
After all, Lin Yu of the Human Race was an existence that defied the norm, and they could not ignore his presence.
However, the other members of the Human Race were too weak. And such a weak race, regarded as ants by them, had become the alliance leader, their superior.
They had long harbored complaints and grievances.
Today, relying on their numbers, despite their unease, they decided to feign ignorance and make things difficult for the Human Race, venting their frustrations.
Moreover, some among them had also been waylaid and wanted to recover their plundered treasures.
However, one person worried, "What if Lin Yu insists on punishing us?"
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.
If Lin Yu were to resort to force, they would indeed find it difficult to resist.
Yet, the decision had been made, and unwilling to back down due to pride, they did not want to let this matter go.
"Hmph, at worst, we'll retreat back to our own world!"
Someone voiced this sentiment, and the others temporarily put aside their anxieties.
"That's right, why should we be afraid of him?"
"We are all avatars. At worst, we'll just abandon this one."
"He's only acting so presumptuously because he's invincible among God Kings. In our worlds, we have God King level existences. Will we fear him?"
"Hmph, if Lin Yu dares to pursue this matter, I'll lure him into my world and let our ancestor kill him!"
