Chapter 587: You Are Invincible Among Great Venerables, So What Am I?
"This strength?"
Not far away, Crimson Jade King's pupils contracted.
He was still wondering why Lin Yuan did not join forces with him to fight Spirit God King when he witnessed this earth-shattering blow.
"Is Galaxy Great Venerable's strength comparable to a core royal member who has grown to their limit? Or is Galaxy Great Venerable himself a core royal member who has grown to his limit?"
Crimson Jade King was filled with shock and doubt.
Lin Yuan's attack had already proven his strength. Even if Crimson Jade King used his full power, it would be impossible for him to unleash such a strike.
Theoretically speaking, even without relying on the power of an Ancestor's Bloodline, an ordinary Great Venerable had the possibility of matching a Limit Core Royal Family member.
But that was only theoretical.
Becoming such a Great Venerable was even harder than becoming a Heavenly Venerable.
Core royal members who had grown to their limit reached that stage by relying on the power of the Ancestor's Bloodline. How could an ordinary Great Venerable possibly reach such a level?
Therefore,
Crimson Jade King was more inclined to believe that Lin Yuan was a Limit Core Royal Family member who had grown to his limit.
Furthermore, what Lin Yuan had just executed was clearly the Blazing Sun World inherent to the Blazing Sun Divine Body.
"A core royal member of my Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom traveling abroad?" Crimson Jade King thought to himself.
The Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom had existed for endless ages. Some core royal members who had long reached their limit sought to take a step further and break the shackles that prevented core royal members from stepping into the Heavenly Venerable realm.
They would often choose to travel abroad, wandering through various Ancient Kingdoms.
If the resources and Legacies of the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom could not offer them hope of making further progress, they would borrow the power and Legacies of other Ancient Kingdoms.
Of course, such core royal members were extremely rare. The number of core royal members was already small, and those who reached their limit and intended to travel through Ancient Countries were even fewer.
"Galaxy."
Spirit God King stared at Lin Yuan, his mind surging with thoughts.
He had arrived at the same speculation as Crimson Jade King: Lin Yuan was a Limit Core Royal Family member of the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom who was traveling abroad.
He just happened to pass through Azure Ember Domain, just happened to encounter King Lingwei initiating a war, just happened to arrive when Spirit God King revealed his full strength, just happened…
A series of coincidences had led to this scene.
"My luck…" Spirit God King felt helpless. If even one of these coincidences had been missing, he wouldn't have encountered this situation.
He could only say that his luck was truly awful.
"This is troublesome."
Spirit God King looked at Lin Yuan. If the opponent was a Limit Core Royal Family member on the same level as him, then the plan to invade Azure Ember Domain was basically a failure.
Not only a failure, but Purple Dream Domain would also need to prevent an invasion from Azure Ember Domain. After all, besides Lin Yuan, the other side had Crimson Jade King.
Although Crimson Jade King had not grown to his limit, he was not someone a Peak Great Venerable could compare to. Currently, Purple Dream Domain did not have any Expert capable of holding off Crimson Jade King.
"Galaxy is actually a core royal member of our Ancient Kingdom? And one who has grown to his limit?"
In the distance, the Great Venerables of Azure Ember Domain exchanged glances. They too could feel the power of Lin Yuan's attack. Having Cultivated to the level of Great Venerable, their vision was extraordinarily keen, and they immediately made similar deductions.
After all, only this speculation barely fit the logic and could explain the scene before them.
"Qing Fen, to think you actually had such an Opportunity…" A Peak Great Venerable looked at Qing Fen Marquis.
As for the master-disciple relationship between Qing Fen Marquis and Lin Yuan? It was undoubtedly nothing more than this Limit Core Royal Family member traveling through the world under a hidden identity.
Perhaps he even had some agreement with Qing Fen Marquis to temporarily live in seclusion within Azure Ember City.
"I…" Qing Fen Marquis blinked, unable to avoid doubting himself a little.
"Since I reached my limit, I have never fought a Limit Core Royal Family member from another Ancient Kingdom."
Spirit God King stared at Lin Yuan, Battle Intent faintly surfacing in his eyes. At this moment, he had set aside the outcome of the war, wanting only to have a good fight with Lin Yuan, a Limit Core Royal Family member of the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom.
Spirit God King was originally reluctant to meddle in low-intensity wars. Had it not been for his connection with King Lingwei, he wouldn't have come at all.
Now that he had met an opponent of the same level, and with the war doomed to be unwinnable, Spirit God King began to crave a battle to the death with Lin Yuan.
His previous battle with Crimson Jade King didn't even count as a warmup, nowhere near comparable to the suppressing strike Lin Yuan delivered when operating the Blazing Sun Divine Body just now.
"Galaxy, take this slash of mine!"
Spirit God King extended his right hand, and a silver long saber appeared in his palm. He lightly slashed down toward Lin Yuan.
A streak of extremely subtle saber light flashed and vanished, tearing through time, space, and Chaos as it slashed toward Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan stood motionless. The Blazing Sun Divine Body operated on its own; the closer one got to him, the more intense the scorching heat became, forming layers of spacetimes.
Sizzle!
The collision between the saber light and the scorching heat sent shockwaves broadcasting in all directions, sweeping across hundreds of millions of billions of miles.
Spirit God King had gone all out with this slash. Its power was so immense that even the shockwaves forced Crimson Jade King, who was watching from nearby, to retreat rapidly.
"Is this a fight between Limit Core Royal Family members?"
Crimson Jade King looked grave. He had sparred with Limit Core Royal Family members of the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom before, but those were friendly spars between clan members, so the other party naturally hadn't used full force.
Hum, hum, hum…
The shockwaves continued to spread farther away, causing the Great Venerables watching from afar to tremble in their hearts.
"Is this the power of a Limit Core Royal Family member?"
"No wonder they can exchange a few moves with a Heavenly Venerable."
Those Great Venerables couldn't help thinking to themselves that beneath Heavenly Venerables, Limit Core Royal Family members were the strongest—this was a fundamental consensus among the Ancient Countries.
"Blocked just like that?"
Holding the silver long saber, Spirit God King looked at Lin Yuan, who hadn't moved at all, and slashed out once again.
The saber light unleashed by this strike split from one into two, two into four, four into eight…
In the blink of an eye, the world around Spirit God King was completely filled with dense, shimmering silver saber light.
"Rise."
The endless silver saber light formed a massive formation, enveloping Lin Yuan.
"Try another move. Such tricks won't work on me."
Seeing this, Lin Yuan lightly flicked his sleeve.
The Blazing Sun Divine Body operated once more, and the terrifying Blazing Sun World contracted, causing the endless silver saber light formation to rapidly vanish into nothingness.
"Hmph."
Spirit God King stowed away his silver long saber. Swirls faintly emerged within his eyes as an impact capable of shaking the Soul and mind descended.
"A mental attack method?"
Lin Yuan immediately noticed it, but his mental will was entirely hidden deep within his internal Universe.
Currently, Lin Yuan's internal Universe was vastly grander than ever before. The Blazing Sun Source was seated at the center, and the Universe's spacetime, modified through "Infinite Void," surged with grandeur.
Spirit God King's full-power mental will attack was diluted and dissipated the moment it flooded into the internal Universe.
"This guy…" Spirit God King frowned. His mental will attack hadn't even affected Lin Yuan, let alone shaken his willpower. Spirit God King wasn't even sure if the move had taken effect at all.
"In that case…"
Spirit God King no longer wanted to test Lin Yuan. Whether it was the two slashes from before or the mental will attack, they were all meant to test Lin Yuan's depth.
After all, Spirit God King was facing a Limit Core Royal Family member on the same level, so he naturally had to be cautious.
"Next is my strongest ultimate move."
Before Spirit God King's voice had even faded, his figure vanished from the spot.
In his place was an endless manifestation of 'Spirit'.
What was Spirit?
Spirit was a special energy that existed within all things. The Ancestor of the Great Spirit Ancient Kingdom was the source of all 'Spirit' in the world.
The Ancestor of the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom was the eternal blazing sun high above the sky, looked up to by all living beings.
Whereas the Ancestor of the Great Spirit Ancient Kingdom was the spirit of all things in the world, the source of all 'Spirit', existing among all things.
"Hahaha, I can feel the 'Spirit' within your body, brimming to the extreme. Fuse together with me!"
Spirit God King's voice sounded faintly. At this moment, he had transformed into the 'Spirit' of the world, even capable of vaguely controlling the 'Spirit' within all things.
"Hmm?"
Lin Yuan's brows furrowed slightly.
He could feel that Spirit God King was nearby, but he could not pinpoint his exact location.
At the same time,
Lin Yuan also noticed the Qi and aura within his body starting to grow restless.
"Is this the Great Spirit Ancient Kingdom's method of manipulating the Spirit of all things?"
Lin Yuan thought to himself. Since the Great Spirit Ancient Kingdom was constantly at war with the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom, Lin Yuan had naturally heard of their methods and capabilities.
However, with Lin Yuan's mastery over his Physical Body, he possessed what could be called perfect control over it. A Great Venerable of the Great Spirit Ancient Kingdom trying to manipulate the 'Spirit' in his body was simply impossible.
Yet the method Spirit God King executed broke through those shackles, managing once again to affect the Spirit within Lin Yuan's body.
Of course, it was merely an influence, still far from true control.
Even so, Lin Yuan felt the Qi and aura inside him grow somewhat chaotic, and a feeling of annoyance began to stir in his heart.
"Forget it, I won't play with you anymore."
Lin Yuan had originally wanted to witness the techniques of a core royal member of the Great Spirit Ancient Kingdom, but now he had lost interest.
Rumble!
With a slight thought, Lin Yuan expanded his Physical Body Divine Ability, 'World'.
An invisible world descended, fusing with the Blazing Sun World. Instantly, Lin Yuan's control over the surrounding spacetime reached an unimaginable degree.
The power of the Divine Ability 'World' depended on one's internal Universe.
And right now, Lin Yuan's internal Universe?
Hum, hum, hum!
Standing there, Lin Yuan seemed to transform into an eternal blazing sun. Wherever the sunlight shone became his domain. Flecks of spiritual light seemed to be forced out against their will, constantly converging to reform Spirit God King's figure.
"Me?"
Spirit God King looked dazed. His technique of transforming into 'Spirit' might not have had immense offensive power, but it was extremely troublesome. Even a Heavenly Venerable would have to spend some effort to deal with it.
But Lin Yuan?
Directly forced him out of his 'Spirit' state?
How was this possible?
"The techniques of a Great Spirit core royal member are nothing more than this."
Lin Yuan looked at Spirit God King. Under the terrifying suppression formed by the Physical Body Divine Ability 'World', Spirit God King was unable to resist even a bit. His Physical Body, Soul, and mental will began to collapse inch by inch.
"This kind of power?"
"Impossible?!"
Spirit God King was filled with disbelief. He struggled with all his might, but it was completely futile, and he could only watch as he was wiped out bit by bit.
"I have already grown to the limit and am invincible among Great Venerables! How could this be? How could this be?"
Spirit God King stared at Lin Yuan, his expression filled with complete confusion.
In this Origin World, among the various Ancient Kingdoms, a core royal member who had grown to their limit was synonymous with being invincible among Great Venerables.
This was an ironclad law, common knowledge.
"Invincible among Great Venerables?"
Lin Yuan retracted his Divine Ability 'World', his gaze calm and indifferent.
You are invincible among Great Venerables.
So what am I?
