Chapter 275: Shattering the Myth

The moment five Eighth Order Invincibles from the alien races emerged from the depths of the spatial layers,

with them at the center, the surrounding space began to solidify,

like a flowing river suddenly freezing over,

and the creatures within the river were as if deeply trapped in amber.

If one wanted to capture Lin Yuan alive, the first thing to do was to prevent him from escaping.

And in this regard, sealing space was the most suitable; once the surrounding Void Realm was locked down, all teleportation methods could no longer be used.

Given the abilities of the five Eighth Order Invincibles and their comprehension of Space Rules, for Lin Yuan to break through their spatial seal,

there were only two possibilities. First, comprehending the complete Space Rules and leaving through absolute control over Space Rules.

Second, mastering a power far exceeding their combined strength. Breaking cleverness with brute force was not just idle talk; even space could be shattered by absolute power.

"It's done."

Darkscale Clan Sala felt a wave of relief in his heart.

Before they made their move, Lin Yuan's only chance of survival was to escape before the space was sealed.

As the Disciple of Red Kun Star Lord, and with Red Kun Star Lord having an extremely deep comprehension of Space Rules, he might have bestowed some kind of instantaneous teleportation method to send Lin Yuan away in advance.

But now?

The spatial seal had already formed, and Lin Yuan had not left yet; Darkscale Clan Sala instantly felt that everything was secure.

Under the joint sealing of the five Eighth Order Invincibles, even Red Kun Star Lord would be suppressed if he didn't escape in advance.

"Flowing Sand."

Darkscale Clan Sala's gaze turned cold.

Hazy yellow sand particles converged, continuously sweeping in from all directions, rapidly accumulating, and their might soaring continuously.

The Power of Flowing Sand was the Cosmic Power mastered by Darkscale Clan Sala. This kind of Cosmic Power was neither an offensive-type Cosmic Power nor a defensive-type Cosmic Power.

Instead, it was similar to a Domain-type Cosmic Power, possessing endless suppression and control capabilities.

This time, among the five Eighth Order Invincibles, he was the leader precisely because of this Cosmic Power.

If the Zerg wanted to completely kill the Galaxy Star Master using memory poison, the prerequisite was to suppress and control him.

The Cosmic Power mastered by Darkscale Clan Sala was extremely suitable. With the Power of Flowing Sand to dominate the battlefield, and the other four Eighth Order Invincibles making their moves, they had basically locked down any ability of the Galaxy Star Master to resist.

Of course, the ability to resist here referred to the combat power previously displayed by the Galaxy Star Master.

The instant the Power of Flowing Sand swept across, the remaining four Eighth Order Invincibles also attacked simultaneously.

The Cosmic Power mastered by the Eighth Order Invincibles vibrated, while also holding back some power; their purpose was to control the Galaxy Star Master,

rather than killing him directly.

Outside the Galaxy Main Star,

Captain Nolan was about to greet Lin Yuan. Not to mention anything else, the Galaxy Star Master had purchased eighty thousand cubic meters of cosmic crystal worth of goods from them at once, directly becoming their most distinguished VIP.

Suddenly.

Space solidified.

Captain Nolan's expression changed drastically. Before he could react, the heavy Power of Flowing Sand shrouded down.

Captain Nolan was also an Evolver of the Eighth Order, close to the Eighth-Order Peak, but at this moment he couldn't even move, only perceiving that four peerless auras had descended.

"It's four Eighth Order Invincibles… No, it's five Eighth Order Invincibles." Captain Nolan's scalp tingled. Usually, even a single Eighth Order Invincible was rare to see,

let alone five at once.

Moreover, the killing intent exuded by these five Eighth Order Invincibles was undisguised. Even though it wasn't targeted at him, Captain Nolan still felt his Soul trembling.

"Galaxy Star Master!"

Captain Nolan looked towards Lin Yuan. He realized that the target of these five Eighth Order Invincibles was the Galaxy Star Master. Aside from the Galaxy Star Master, who else could be worth five Eighth Order Invincibles joining forces?

"So there were still five bugs hiding outside?"

Lin Yuan glanced at the Eighth Order Invincibles like Darkscale Clan Sala.

Before Lin Yuan walked out of the Galaxy Main Star, these five Eighth Order Invincibles were hidden deep within layers of spatial layers, extremely secretive. Unless deliberately checked, they were very difficult to discover.

After all, Lin Yuan was currently also in the Eighth Order, which could be considered the same Realm as the Eighth Order Invincibles.

Hum.

The next moment,

with Lin Yuan as the center, a wave of black and white Yin and Yang Power diffused in all directions.

Wherever the black and white Yin and Yang Power diffused, the solidified space returned to normal. The five Cosmic Powers, including the Power of Flowing Sand, were all defeated. Even the four Eighth Order Invincibles who rushed up saw their figures retreating wildly, their gazes looking at Lin Yuan flashing with terror and panic.

"This power…" Darkscale Clan Sala's expression was solemn. "Cosmic Power, it is definitely Cosmic Power! Galaxy Star Master, have you comprehended Cosmic Power?"

Darkscale Clan Sala found it hard to believe.

Over twenty years ago, Lin Yuan had just entered the Eighth Order, and now he had already comprehended a certain Cosmic Power, becoming an Eighth Order Invincible?

This… What kind of freak was this?

Although he had entered the Eighth Order not long ago and cleansed the Galaxy Star Territory, displaying an Eighth-Order Peak combat power, Eighth-Order Peak and Eighth Order Invincible were completely different concepts.

Furthermore—

Darkscale Clan Sala could feel that the Cosmic Power comprehended by the Galaxy Star Master was definitely not simple. It belonged to the higher-tier Cosmic Power level, and was even much stronger than normal higher-tier Cosmic Power.

Otherwise, it would definitely be impossible to so easily defeat the joint forces of their five Eighth Order Invincibles.

The moment the five Eighth Order Invincible alien races appeared, several hundred million miles away from the Galaxy Main Star,

a Bald Man in white robes appeared, looking towards the direction of the Galaxy Main Star. "Those alien races really made a move."

This white-robed Bald Man was none other than Bai Guang Star Lord, a friend of Red Kun Star Lord, who had traded the cosmic rare treasure 'thunder heart' with Lin Yuan not long ago.

Bai Guang Star Lord was a veteran Eighth-Order Peak, and in his comprehension of Space Rules, he was not weaker than Red Kun Star Lord.

Therefore, Bai Guang Star Lord's self-preservation ability was very strong. The deeper his comprehension of space, the more he could cross hundreds of millions of miles in a single step, and he could also hide within multiple spatial layers, which was equivalent to being inherently invincible.

Therefore, in terms of combat power, Bai Guang Star Lord was inferior to an Eighth Order Invincible, but when it came to escape methods, even Eighth Order Invincibles could not compare to him.

The most powerful aspect of an Eighth Order Invincible lay in their Cosmic Power, but Cosmic Power was just a kind of power. Unless it was a Cosmic Power specialized in escaping, it really couldn't match Bai Guang Star Lord.

After Bai Guang Star Lord finished trading the thunder heart with Lin Yuan, he mentioned it to Red Kun Star Lord, resulting in the latter pleading with him, hoping that Bai Guang Star Lord would stay outside the Galaxy Main Star for a while longer to protect Lin Yuan's safety.

"Five Eighth Order Invincibles?"

Bai Guang Star Lord's expression changed slightly. If it were only one or two Eighth Order Invincibles assassinating Lin Yuan, he could step in to save him, as long as Lin Yuan could hold on for a split second.

But five Eighth Order Invincibles—

Even if these five Eighth Order Invincibles' comprehension of Space Rules was inferior to his, quantitative change leads to qualitative change. What he needed to do was not to escape, but to rescue Lin Yuan and then escape.

"It seems I can only use that treasure." Bai Guang Star Lord raised his right hand, and a cluster of white flames began to burn.

As a Peak Group, Human Civilization possessed countless treasures. Bai Guang Star Lord was a veteran Eighth-Order Peak, so he naturally possessed many trump card methods.

The white flames burning on his hand were a one-time-use treasure. Once activated, they would erupt with a basic might approaching the ninth-order level,

which was enough to temporarily repel those five Eighth Order Invincibles.

However, the next moment,

Lin Yuan shattered the joint assassination layout of the five Eighth Order Invincibles with a single thought, and easily repelled four of them, leaving Bai Guang Star Lord somewhat dumbfounded.

What happened?

Wasn't the Galaxy Star Master deeply trapped in a desperate situation?

He hadn't even made a move to save him yet, why had the situation changed?

"Eighth Order Invincibles, let's go."

Outside the Galaxy Main Star, having confirmed that Lin Yuan had already comprehended a type of Cosmic Power, Darkscale Clan Sala made a decisive decision and intended to leave.

Not to mention that the Cosmic Power comprehended by Lin Yuan exceeded normal higher-tier Cosmic Power, even if it were just ordinary Cosmic Power, their plan could be considered a failure.

No matter how ordinary the Cosmic Power was, it was still Cosmic Power. With the Galaxy Star Master mastering this kind of power, he was an Eighth Order Invincible of the same level as them.

With the five Eighth Order Invincibles joining forces, they could certainly suppress an Eighth Order Invincible, but it was only suppression. Wanting to completely render an Eighth Order Invincible utterly incapable of resisting so that they could infuse 'memory poison' into them was undoubtedly daydreaming.

Since that was the case, dragging it out any longer would just be a waste of time. In case other Experts of Human Civilization rushed over, wanting to leave later would require paying a price.

"Did I tell you you could leave?"

Lin Yuan stood under the starry sky, looking at the five Eighth Order Invincibles who were beginning to retreat.

At the same time,

the hazy black and white Yin and Yang Taiji Power quietly diffused and spread.

"Galaxy Star Master, could it be that you want to keep us here?" Darkscale Clan Sala was slightly stunned, feeling somewhat absurd.

The Galaxy Star Master comprehending Cosmic Power did exceed his expectations, but at most it meant the mission failed, and he along with the other four Eighth Order Invincible alien races could retreat unscathed.

Everyone was an Eighth Order Invincible. Even if the Cosmic Power comprehended by the Galaxy Star Master was stronger than theirs, it was almost impossible to keep them here.

Among Eighth Order Invincibles, there were indeed differences in strength, but the gap wouldn't be very large. One party couldn't even completely defeat the other, let alone kill and keep them.

If Darkscale Clan Sala hadn't been wary of Experts from Human Civilization rushing over, he definitely would have continued testing the Galaxy Star Master along with the other four Eighth Order Invincibles.

"Forget it."

"He's probably just talking."

"There's no need to argue with the Galaxy Star Master."

Darkscale Clan Sala collected his thoughts and began to speed up his departure from the Milky Way Star Territory.

Swish swish.

Before escaping very far, Darkscale Clan Sala felt that all directions were filled with the black and white Yin and Yang Taiji Power.

"The Cosmic Power mastered by the Galaxy Star Master?"

Darkscale Clan Sala immediately activated the Power of Flowing Sand, wanting to resist.

Obviously,

the Galaxy Star Master had chased after him.

But Darkscale Clan Sala was not afraid. Even if he was inferior to the Galaxy Star Master, at worst he would just be suppressed, and he wouldn't even be restricted from escaping.

However,

not long after,

in Darkscale Clan Sala's perception, besides the black and white Yin and Yang Taiji Power, a brand-new power had emerged.

This power was boundless and limitless, endless and inexhaustible.

"Another kind of Cosmic Power? Still a higher-tier Cosmic Power?"

Darkscale Clan Sala turned pale with fright, and at the same time a sense of crisis arose in his heart.

"This Galaxy Star Master has mastered two kinds of Cosmic Powers, and both are higher-tier Cosmic Powers?" Darkscale Clan Sala faintly felt a great terror.

The next moment,

an aura that destroyed all things swept in, and Darkscale Clan Sala was greatly alarmed.

"A third higher-tier Cosmic Power?"

"This Galaxy Star Master—"

Terror flashed in Darkscale Clan Sala's eyes, and his figure instantly began to dissolve as his consciousness plunged into darkness.

Lin Yuan stood at the place where Darkscale Clan Sala's figure had dissolved, caught his spatial bracelet, and stowed it into his Internal World.

Utilizing three higher-tier Cosmic Powers that could mutually cooperate and complement each other—Taiji Power, Limitless Power, and the Power of Destruction—along with the blessing of the World Power extending from his millions-of-miles-wide Internal World,

Lin Yuan's combat power had already pulled away a huge gap from normal Eighth Order Invincibles. Killing Darkscale Clan Sala was not a difficult task.

This was still with Lin Yuan holding back with all his might, only displaying three Cosmic Powers while dozens of other Cosmic Powers remained unused, not to mention that wispy Primal Power that transcended higher-tier Cosmic Power.

In a certain Star Domain deep within the Universe,

Darkscale Clan Sala's true body abruptly opened its eyes.

"That Galaxy Star Master?!"

Darkscale Clan Sala's expression was filled with terror. As an Eighth Order Invincible, he naturally also had Clones, and what usually roamed outside was a Clone.

After all, Eighth Order Invincibles were not absolutely safe either. Encountering certain powerful ninth-order Experts meant that Eighth Order Invincibles would also die.

Darkscale Clan Sala had thought that his Clone might perish, but he never expected to die at the hands of a Human Evolver who was also of the Eighth Order.

"How can that Galaxy Star Master be so strong? He actually comprehended three higher-tier Cosmic Powers?"

Darkscale Clan Sala's heart trembled, faintly feeling that something was amiss. If it were just three higher-tier Cosmic Powers, even if they could kill him, it wouldn't be possible to 'one-shot' him like just now. Clearly, besides those three Cosmic Powers,

the Galaxy Star Master definitely mastered another powerful force.

"The Galaxy Star Master… The Zerg are going to have a headache—"

Darkscale Clan Sala thought silently in his heart.

Although he had lost a Clone, which could be considered a heavy loss, judging by the Galaxy Star Master's performance just now, he would likely become a thorn in the Zerg's side.

"Also… the myth of the Eighth Order Invincibles… has been shattered—"

Darkscale Clan Sala's expression was complex.

Galaxy Star Master.

Lin Yuan enveloped all directions with Taiji Power, assisted by Limitless Power and the Power of Destruction, and soon killed another Eighth Order Invincible alien race.

"Three ran away."

Lin Yuan glanced in three completely different directions.

The escape directions of the five Eighth Order Invincibles were naturally not consistent, but instead fled in scattered directions.

After Lin Yuan killed two, the other three had already run far away.

Having witnessed with their own eyes Lin Yuan killing Eighth Order Invincibles like slaughtering chickens, these three Eighth Order Invincible alien races had their scalps exploding with fright, and they all spared no expense in using various methods to get away.

In fact, with Lin Yuan's current strength, even though he had far from recovered to his Peak period, he could still keep those five Eighth Order Invincibles.

However, it would inevitably expose more Cosmic Powers.

He mastered dozens of Cosmic Powers, including Primal Power, a power that transcended higher-tier Cosmic Power, which should belong to his trump cards and backup plans.

To expose them just to kill a mere few Eighth Order Invincibles, Lin Yuan felt it wasn't worth it.

It couldn't even be considered a true killing. Lin Yuan could sense that the two Eighth Order Invincibles he had already killed still maintained a Karma connection with him, meaning they hadn't truly died yet, and their true bodies should still be alive.

"Although Eighth Order Invincibles are on the same level as the Supreme Immortal King of the Spirit Realm in terms of combat power, when it comes to escape methods, they far exceed the latter."

Lin Yuan's expression was thoughtful.

As for the reason behind this, it wasn't difficult to understand. In the Spirit Realm, the Supreme Immortal King was basically already at the ceiling, but in the Main World, Eighth Order Invincibles couldn't even be considered the very top.

Therefore, Eighth Order Invincibles placed great importance on self-preservation methods, and most Eighth Order Invincibles had backgrounds, allowing them to receive bestowals from even stronger existences.

This point was something the Supreme Immortal King of the Spirit Realm could not compare to by a wide margin.
