Lin Yu's brow twinged.
This was his body's warning.
"Danger!"
Boom!
A red blade qi, appearing from nowhere, shot directly at Lin Yu's true form.
Lin Yu's hair stood on end, his heart filled with extreme tension.
"Damn it, who are you?" Lin Yu roared, dodging the strike.
A fleeting voice echoed from the shadows: "The one who will kill you!"
"Insolent!" Lin Yu bellowed.
His voice boomed like thunder, distorting the very air.
Boom!
The red blade qi struck again.
Lin Yu was furious.
He was already the uncrowned king of Blue Star, yet someone dared to attack him. They were utterly reckless.
Moreover, how did this person sneak in?
No time to think about that, he would capture this person first.
With this thought, red light shimmered in his palm, intertwining to form a scroll.
"Dimension Scroll!"
"Go!"
The next moment.
The scroll expanded, soon obscuring the sky.
With his current strength, using this Main God Skill would yield even greater effects.
A scroll appeared in the sky, blanketing the heavens.
Pieces of space peeled away from the main space, reducing from three dimensions to two.
"What is this thing?" Zhang Fu asked, his expression wary.
Having entered Blue Star, he was only at the Heavenly Immortal realm. At this level, resisting this skill was proving difficult.
Furthermore, Lin Yu's true form could reign supreme among Heavenly Immortals.
Relying on the power of the Dimension Scroll, he finally discovered the hidden assailant.
"Hmph, you dare to ambush me? Die!" he sneered.
He then increased the energy input.
Instantly.
The Dimension Scroll blazed with light.
A power two to three times stronger than before pressed down on Zhang Fu.
Zhang Fu's face contorted. He hadn't expected to be discovered.
"Die!"
Lin Yu roared, increasing the energy input further.
The next moment.
Immense power surged, the surrounding space collapsed, becoming a two-dimensional existence like the scroll.
Zhang Fu could no longer resist. His strength faltered, and he collapsed to the ground.
Seeing this, Lin Yu brandished the Dimension Scroll and descended.
"Die!"
Boom!
The Dimension Scroll crashed down.
Once a dimension was lowered, even a God King would struggle to escape, let alone someone who had suppressed themselves to the Heavenly Immortal realm.
Zhang Fu's expression changed drastically.
He could almost smell death.
"Damn it!"
"Spare me, and I owe you a favor!"
At this moment, all he desired was survival.
As long as he lived, he would have a chance to rise again, a chance for revenge.
Alas, Lin Yu would not let a tiger return to the mountains.
Someone who could infiltrate his presence so silently, almost eluding him, was someone he could not afford to let go.
"Your ability is too potent, I cannot let you live!"
As his words fell, the Dimension Scroll descended.
Death had once been distant from Zhang Fu, but now it was incredibly close, right at his doorstep.
"No, you can't kill me!" he roared, his voice filled with anguish.
"Hmph, you can try to kill me, but I can't kill you? What kind of logic is that?" Lin Yu scoffed. "Go to hell and repent!"
Rumbling!!!
Lin Yu increased the force again.
Instantly, Zhang Fu could no longer resist.
His face contorted with grief and anger, and a familiar face flashed in his mind.
In the face of life and death, there was great terror, but also great wisdom. He seemed to understand something, bloodshot eyes widening, and he roared, "You... it was you... who ruined me..."
Boom!
The Dimension Scroll crashed down.
A three-dimensional space silently lowered its dimensions, transforming into a scroll, which he held in his hand.
A wisp of flame appeared in his palm.
The scroll was reduced to ashes, and the space that had been lowered in dimension also turned to dust.
"Ding, you have killed the Patriarch of the Kuafu Tribe: Zhang Fu (Golden Immortal)..."
A massive influx of upgrade points made Lin Yu ecstatic.
"So he was a Golden Immortal, no wonder he was so troublesome," Lin Yu shuddered, recalling the opponent's stealth abilities.
"No, my stealth techniques are still lacking. If I could possess his level of stealth, I could ascend to a higher level."
As Lin Yu pondered this, his eyes suddenly brightened.
He had felt something hard.
"What is this..." He opened his palm and looked down.
A fist-sized crystal, no bigger than an infant's, pulsed with light, resting in his palm.
"Judging by its size, if nothing else, this is another talent crystal."
Lin Yu smiled, picked up the crystal, and pressed it to his brow to sense it.
Instantly, a stream of information flooded his mind.
Heavenly Concealment: SSS-grade talent ability. When this technique is used, one can borrow the rules of the world to conceal oneself.
"Just what I needed when I was drowsy, what good luck!"
"Learn it!" he thought.
He pressed it to his brow and silently willed himself to learn.
The next moment, the crystal dissolved into specks of flowing light, pouring into his mind.
A short while later, he opened his eyes and found that he had mastered this talent.
"Heavenly Concealment, one can use the Heavenly Dao to conceal oneself, making one virtually invincible among peers."
"However, it seems that the power of dimension reduction can counter this ability."
Lin Yu recalled that during the dimension reduction process with the Dimension Scroll, he had discovered an area that could not be reduced, which was how he found the hidden Zhang Fu.
"All things in heaven and earth are mutually restraining. Although Heavenly Concealment is powerful, there are ways to counter it."
"Furthermore, this battle has also shown me a new way to use the Dimension Scroll."
"From now on, all stealth techniques will be useless against me."
Lin Yu grinned with delight.
This expedition had been incredibly fruitful, making him very happy, but the Kuafu tribe was in deep sorrow.
...
The Kuafu Tribe.
This was a race of giants. Upon reaching adulthood, they stood three meters tall and possessed the innate divine ability of Heaven and Earth Manifestation. The strongest recorded in the tribe could grow to a height of one hundred thousand zhang.
They were immensely powerful, sweeping through the surrounding realms and ruling ten worlds.
For a time, their prestige was unmatched.
However, today, the entire Kuafu tribe was plunged into grief.
Their patriarch's soul lamp had been extinguished!
This meant their patriarch was dead.
With the death of their Golden Immortal patriarch, the only Golden Immortal in their tribe, their fate was sealed.
Those Golden Immortals who had surrendered to them would surely not let this pass.
A great war was inevitable.
And in a place unseen by anyone, a figure quietly slipped away.
This person was none other than the one who possessed the ability to seize heaven.
After leaving the Kuafu tribe, he looked back and said with a grim expression, "I used Heaven Seizing three times, granting you three talents. What more are you not satisfied with?"
"Since you want my life, do not blame me for being ruthless!"
"Because I do not wish to die!"
He gritted his teeth, looked up at the sky, and pointed a finger upwards, roaring:
"Treacherous heavens, what do you think you are? Why do you repeatedly target our tribe?"
"Our Heaven Seizing tribe has only me left. Why are you still unwilling to let us go?"
"Today, I, Xie Xuan, will defy your will!"
With that, he left the Kuafu realm and went to an ordinary mortal world.
Many years later, people would discover the Heaven Seizing tribe again, but they would find that this tribe's Heaven Seizing technique had become significantly weaker.
One could only seize heaven once in a lifetime, and there was a chance of failure.
This tribe was composed of Xie Xuan's descendants.
