Chapter 1266: Detonation

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Li waved his hand and grasped the ma.s.s of yellow light before channeling his mental strength into the ma.s.s of light immediately. Just like bees sucking nectar, it absorbed the knowledge of the laws of earth in the ma.s.s of light into his mind.

After a long time, Lin Li finally opened his eyes, and stowed away the ma.s.s of light that represented the power of Origin of earth into his Ring of Endless Storm. Immediately afterwards, the debris of the stars, Rebirth, flew out from his Domain World, and released a light that was drastically different from before.

Sensing that he was getting more and more comfortable with controlling Rebirth, Lin Li had greater antic.i.p.ation for the next test.

At this moment, the loud sounds of a violent explosion suddenly came from the sky. Immediately afterwards, Lin Li saw a huge fireball smas.h.i.+ng towards him. Is it the Ancient G.o.d of Fire’s turn this time? However, regardless of what it was, Lin Li did not dare to really take on the attack. Instead, he activated his s.p.a.ce Robe and flew in another direction.

When the fireball landed on the position where Lin Li was originally standing at, it seemed to stop as if the emergency brakes were applied. Next, the fireball stretched out and turned into a figure that was engulfed by flames, emitting a suffocating divine power like a G.o.d descending from the sky.

It was an ancient G.o.d, but not the Ancient G.o.d of Fire that Lin Li thought he was. Although his body was covered in blazing flames, the flames did not contain a trace of the Origin of Fire. After stretching his body, that ancient G.o.d turned to face Lin Li, and his body shook a little. Soon, the flames that shrouded his body were instantly extinguished by a strange power.

As the flames vanished, the ancient G.o.d’s appearance was unraveled. He was nearly 10 meters tall, and the muscles of his naked body seemed to be cast in steel. There was no doubt that he possessed the power to overturn the sea and sky.

The Ancient G.o.d of Strength! Lin Li finally recognized his opponent to be the Ancient G.o.d of Strength who had mastered the Origin of strength, and who was said to be able to lift Anril with both hands, break through millions of layers of s.p.a.ce with a single punch, and easily make Anril sink by several meters according to the myths.

There was another G.o.d that was similar to the Ancient G.o.d of Strength: the low-level main G.o.d, Hercules. However, Hercules was just like a n.o.body compared to the Ancient G.o.d of Strength. Hercules had achieved G.o.dhood through his mastery of the laws of strength, while the Ancient G.o.d of Strength had an inherent mastery of the Origin of strength, which was the source of all strength.

Lin Li initially hoped that he would be able to battle the masters of all four elemental laws, but he didn’t expect to face the Ancient G.o.d of Strength. While feeling disappointed, he also felt a little vexed. If he had guessed correctly, the Ancient G.o.d of Strength could not be easily suppressed by the Mount Tai mageweath.

Strictly speaking, Lin Li’s Mount Tai mageweath was very similar to the Origin of strength of the Ancient G.o.d of Strength. Although Lin Li was indeed the one who had created the laws of the Mount Tai mageweath, it was very compatible with the nature of the Origin of strength. Under such circ.u.mstances, it would naturally not be that easy to suppress the Ancient G.o.d of Strength who possessed the Origin of strength.

BOOM!

The figure of the Ancient G.o.d of Strength suddenly vanished on the spot, letting out a thunderous roar. Immediately afterwards, a fist that blocked Lin Li’s entire field of vision suddenly came cras.h.i.+ng towards him almost at the same time as the disappearance of the Ancient G.o.d of Strength occurred. Even though Lin Li’s surroundings were still protected by the debris of the stars, the Domain World didn’t seem to have the slightest effect in blocking the steel punch as it was crushed into pieces. Under the blow from the Ancient G.o.d of Strength, the seven pieces of the debris of the stars were actually forced out of Lin Li’s Domain World.

Fortunately, Lin Li had already prepared for this long ago, so he immediately deployed the s.p.a.ce Robe. As it flickered, he vanished right on the spot, and dodged the Ancient G.o.d of Strength’s punch. When Lin Li’s figure appeared in another direction, he couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.

The mere punch of the Ancient G.o.d of Strength made Lin Li feel a sense of danger that he hadn’t felt before in his previous battles with the two Ancient G.o.ds. He was certain that his body would have been blown to pieces if he had taken that punch, and even his Sanctuary-level soul, which was said to be indestructible, would not be able to avoid annihilation.

It was not that the Ancient G.o.d of Strength was necessarily more powerful than the previous two Ancient G.o.ds, but rather his fighting method was indeed mind-boggling and vexing for a mage like Lin Li.

There was a saying in Anril that mages were the nemesis of warriors because warriors had to fight in close combat in order for their attacks to be effectively lethal. However, there was also another saying that warriors were the nemesis of mages because once a warrior got close to the fragile bodies of the mages, the mages would be doomed.

It was like how fire and water would cancel out each other, but once a fire was big enough, it would be able to vaporize water. Likewise, when there was a large amount of water, it would be able to put out flames. Hence, there was no such thing as a nemesis and whatnot, and everything boiled down to strength. Regardless of profession, as long as one was strong enough, they would be the nemesis of their enemies.

However, the issue was that if it was a field that Lin Li was familiar with, he would at least be confident in dealing with it even if his enemy was powerful. However, the Ancient G.o.d of Strength was stronger than him, and even mastered laws in a field that he wasn’t familiar with. Hence, he was undoubtedly Lin Li’s nemesis.

Lin Li was now facing a warrior that was much stronger than him, so the Ancient G.o.d of Strength was definitely considered his nemesis.

At the beginning, Lin Li had once relied on the strength of his body to defeat a mage like himself. However, his close combat skills were insufficient for dealing with a powerhouse like the Ancient G.o.d of Strength.

The Ancient G.o.d of Strength’s punch missed, and he immediately sensed where Lin Li was moving. Without even looking, he turned around and launched another punch. The ma.s.sive power broke through the air, and there wasn’t a trace of Combat Energy at all. However, a terrifying force blasted at Lin Li across the air.

Lin Li’s figure flashed, and he emerged from the void. Once again, he felt the sense of extreme danger followed by a heavy blow to his Domain World, which had just regained a little stability. He didn’t dare to stop here at all, and hurriedly activated his s.p.a.ce Robe in a bid to move farther away this time so that he could buy himself some time for a counterattack.

However, the Ancient G.o.d of Strength that had launched an attack through the air suddenly reached his hands out in front of him, and he ripped the s.p.a.ce apart to form a spatial rift in an instant. Lin Li could easily open a spatial rift, but the one that the Ancient G.o.d of Strength ripped open had pierced through countless layers of s.p.a.ce and spread towards Lin Li.

This time, Lin Li couldn’t even unleash his s.p.a.ce Robe. Due to the fact that the s.p.a.ce had been destroyed by the Ancient G.o.d of Strength, his flas.h.i.+ng movements could only push him towards the Ancient G.o.d of Strength. It was just like opening a hole in the basin, and letting all the water in it flow towards the hole.

Besides, once the power in the spatial rift spread towards his body, it would be even more terrifying than any artifact. Even his Domain World would have to be torn together with it. Lin Li didn’t dare to resist it with his body as he quickly dodged aside while pointing the Helios’ Scepter forward, after which a 100-meter-long Light and Darkness Sword slashed at the Ancient G.o.d of Strength.

However, Lin Li knew very well that the Light and Darkness Sword wouldn’t be able to hurt the Ancient G.o.d of Strength at all, and that the so-called counterattack was only to gain some opportunity.

Indeed, when facing the Light and Darkness Sword, the Ancient G.o.d of Strength had a look of disdain on his face, and he directly reached his hand out to grab it. It was one of the strongest attacks that Lin Li relied on, and yet the Ancient G.o.d of Strength managed to grab it with just one hand. Besides, he seemed to be completely relaxed, as if he caught something trivial.

Immediately afterwards, the Ancient G.o.d of Strength humphed coldly, and crushed the Light and Darkness Sword, even though he seemed to have only grasped it with some force. The Light and Darkness Sword, which was more than 100 meters long, started shattering, and black and white light fragments scattered in all directions like b.u.t.terflies.

At the same time, the figure of the Ancient G.o.d of Strength also pa.s.sed through the thousands of black and white fragments, rus.h.i.+ng towards the front of Lin Li. He then smashed his palm against Lin Li’s head. When his palm landed, he had already sealed the s.p.a.ce with the power of his fingers, making it difficult for one to fly, let alone escape by teleportation.

Lin Li immediately felt that the surrounding s.p.a.ce seemed to have frozen all of a sudden, and even the air felt like a stiff iron plate. It was as if the power of his Mount Tai mageweath had engulfed his body, making it difficult for him to even move a finger.

In the face of the huge palm that came smas.h.i.+ng downwards, Lin Li had no choice but to condense his World Domain, and catalyze the power of the seven pieces of the debris of the stars to the maximum. The entire World Domain had already been shrunk to the smallest size possible; at the same time, it was also the st.u.r.diest it could be. If the World Sword was said to be the strongest attack, the World Domain was now the strongest defense.

However, even Lin Li himself was unsure if such a high degree of defense was enough to withstand the force of a single blow from the Ancient G.o.d of Strength, let alone counterattack. Although the power of the Ancient G.o.d of Strength was not complete, it definitely had an overpowering edge over Lin Li, so it wouldn’t be that easy to counterattack.

Lin Li had just gotten ready when the Ancient G.o.d of Strength’s attack struck him. Next, his giant palm landed on Lin Li’s Domain World with a loud boom. However, the strike did not send Lin Li flying like a ball. Although he was in midair, there was a sudden force coming from below, which surged upwards and withstood the blow for him.

With that boom, Lin Li still felt as if his body was being compressed, even though he was isolated by the Domain World. The impact of the attack had also caused his Domain World to crumble, while the seven pieces of the debris of the stars were smashed out.

However, just as the Domain World was about to shatter, Lin Li seized the moment to put his ability to move in flashes to use by vanis.h.i.+ng right on the spot. However, although he had left, the Domain World was still there. Immediately afterwards, his Domain World flickered again. It turned out that it had been detonated by Lin Li, causing the World Laws to erupt in a manner that was even more terrifying than the explosion resulting from the conflict of the power of Light and Darkness. It was almost on par with the severity of the self-destruction of a Sanctuary powerhouse.

Of course, detonating one’s Domain World was not something that could be done casually, as the Domain World was not a type of magic spell that could be cast when needed. After a Sanctuary powerhouse stepped into the Sanctuary-realm, they’d begin to build their own Domain World based on their understanding of the rules. Once the Domain World was established, it would exist in perpetuity, and continue to be strengthened as its master’s comprehension of laws deepened. Hence, it could be said that the Domain World was the second life of a Sanctuary powerhouse, something akin to a magical crystal that a Sanctuary powerhouse has condensed outside of his body.

The Domain World could be broken, but it could still be repaired after some time. However, once it was destroyed, it would truly be irreparable. Hence, the loss of a Domain World through self-detonation would probably be second only to the self-destruction of the mana core for mages.

Yet, Lin Li resolutely detonated his own Domain World, as if it didn’t belong to him at all. However, the power released by his Domain World had indeed played a significant role; at least it had put the Ancient G.o.d of Strength in a disheveled state.

When the figure of the Ancient G.o.d of Strength emerged from the light, his body was already battered with wounds, and one of his arms was even badly hurt to the point that only his bones were left. Unfortunately, this degree of injury was nothing to the Ancient G.o.d of Strength, and the other wounds on his body had also healed rapidly. In fact, even his arm, which only had its bones left, was soon covered with a layer of muscle, followed by another layer of skin.

On the other hand, Lin Li wiped the bloodstains at the corner of his mouth. Although he was as pale as a sheet, he nevertheless raised his arm steadily, and quickly drew a mageweath out of thin air in front of himself. Although the fight with the Ancient G.o.d of Strength didn’t last for long, Lin Li had already gained some understanding of the Origin of strength, and finally had a plan for modifying the Mount Tai mageweath.

However, drawing a mageweath required time regardless of how quick he might be. The Ancient G.o.d of Strength clearly wouldn’t give Lin Li the time he needed. In fact, while the wounds on his body were still healing, the Ancient G.o.d of Strength had already launched another attack on Lin Li.

The Ancient G.o.d of Strength pressed his fingers together, and slashed his palm towards Lin Li in midair, after which a ray of light immediately shot at Lin Li. It wasn’t Combat Energy, but an attack that was purely triggered with strength, similar to the way one could fan some wind with his or her palm. However, the power of the Ancient G.o.d of Strength was far beyond the simple action of waving his hand.

Lin Li didn’t dare to stop drawing the mageweath. With a mere thought in mind, the debris of the stars, Rebirth, darted out and transformed into a mountain peak to meet the attack of the Ancient G.o.d of Strength. There was a loud, explosive boom, and the mountain peak that Rebirth had transformed into crumbled almost immediately upon contact. It was as if it was made of clay. Immediately afterwards, the debris of the stars, Polar Snow, too, darted out, and a solid crystal-like ice wall supported the back of the crumbling mountain peak.. However, the ice wall made of Polar Snow shattered like gla.s.s immediately, unable to hold up for even a second.
