Chapter 626 - 620: Sevenfold Time Flow
"What?!"
The sudden change made the faces of the four members of the Realm Alliance turn pale.
It was their first time witnessing such an eerie method.
Aside from their thoughts, everything else slowed down like a tortoise; even the Power of Rule within them couldn’t keep up with their thoughts.
What on earth is this ability!?
Before they could think further, Lin You, surrounded by the Time Law, had already rushed in, with two Phantom Clones appearing beside him.
Gluttony Banquet activated!
Three massive Cannibal Flower phantoms appeared in front, biting towards the four.
The activation speed of this skill is much faster than Deadly Sniper and doesn’t require any build-up. In almost the blink of an eye, three giant mouths fell roaring down.
"Get out of my way!"
With a roar of anger, the four of them burst forth with momentum, gathering a large defense in front of them.
"Boom!!"
The onslaughts from both sides collided fiercely, exploding into a massive, terrifying energy, destroying everything around.
Lin You’s face was grim; with this strike, he sensed his opponents’ strength—two with Eight Divine Formats, two with Seven Divine Formats—far stronger than imagined.
Although he temporarily suppressed them with the Time Law, his basic Agility and attack were still a bit lacking.
This level alone couldn’t threaten them, let alone kill them within ten seconds.
Luckily, he was only responsible for delaying time, or else facing four Tier Eleven Lords alone would be very strenuous.
After they steadied themselves, the Power of Rule within him also declared exhaustion, and the Time Law was lifted.
Exactly ten seconds had been delayed.
However.
Just as the four of the Realm Alliance surged with aura, preparing to attack Lin You jointly, a shrill scream suddenly echoed from a distance.
The Beast Lord, already badly wounded, was directly shattered by Beidou under the Mechanical Overload state, its body exploding into a cloud of blood mist.
With a beckoning gesture, a Seven-Colored Divine Format exuding wildness appeared in Beidou’s hand, who shouted to Lin You, "Retreat!"
As the words fell, they immediately gathered the species and traveled through space to escape.
Lin You didn’t hesitate either, throwing forward a handful of Explosive Mushrooms, and likewise summoned the species to chase after them.
The four were about to pursue when they were blasted back by a violent explosion.
By the time they regained awareness, Lin You was already nowhere in sight, his aura completely vanished, untraceable anymore.
"Damn it, let them escape!"
The four displayed gloomy expressions, looking towards where Lin You and his group disappeared.
If it were usual times, they wouldn’t let the enemies escape so easily.
Yet the Primordial Beast’s self-destruction had inflicted various degrees of injury on them, making pursuit difficult.
Moreover, now with the space full of lurking dangers and the possibility of encountering other realm individuals anytime, they dared not act rashly, forced to watch Lin You escape.
Sensing they didn’t follow.
Traveling through the void, Lin You finally slowed down, soon reaching thousands of kilometers away, quickly reuniting with Beidou and others.
"How about it? They aren’t following, right?" Beidou asked hastily.
Among those four just now, two had Eight Divine Formats, and they outnumbered them, their overall strength superior.
Adding to that his Mechanical Overload’s negative effects, so definitely couldn’t match those people, being cautious was always right.
"Rest assured, we’ve already shaken them off." Lin You responded with a smile.
When escaping, he deliberately took several turns, confirming no one followed before coming to meet them.
Upon hearing, Beidou finally exhaled deeply, then immediately excitedly took out the Beast Type Divine Format obtained.
"Finally got it, thankfully with your help, or else who knows how long it would take."
Currently at Eight Divine Formats strength, absorbing this piece would let him reach Nine Divine Formats like Hundred Beasts, naturally feeling excited.
"No need to be polite. You weren’t part of the previous Divine Format acquisition, considered as our debt to you, now repaid." Hundred Beasts laughed heartily.
"I was just returning the favor for the 200,000 Rule Fragments from last time." Lin You immediately added.
Though he also needed a Beast Type Divine Format, the operation’s core was Beidou, his main aim was repaying favors.
Once Beidou absorbs the Divine Format, their Primordial Realm would have two top-tier lords with Nine Divine Formats.
Indeed, thanks to the demon invasion this time, granting such an excellent opportunity, usually wouldn’t be this easy.
"Anything else to say, if you need help anytime, come to me."
Beidou wasn’t pretentious, said afterward, storing the Divine Format into his personal space, planning to absorb it back in the Kingdom.
Considering the place is unsafe, the aura from absorbing the Divine Format might attract others’ envy, being besieged would be a loss.
"Let’s go, it’s already dark, let’s leave here first."
Hundred Beasts glanced at the completely darkened sky, and spoke.
At night, the Aura of Chaos is even more chaotic than during the day.
In the Ten Thousand Realms Continent and Demon Plane, the impact isn’t too potent.
Yet here, located within the Chaos Void, the surrounding Aura of Chaos is exceptionally intense, likely enhancing demon power.
Thus, they didn’t linger further, continued traveling through space, heading towards the Space Gate, soon vanishing into the vast night.
Until deep into the night.
Lin You finally returned to his Territory.
Seeing the lights in the Capital gradually dimming, he didn’t pursue other tasks, directly heading to the palace for rest.
Planning to continue collecting Rule Fragments in the Demon Space tomorrow.
...
...
Time passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, ten days had gone by.
During these ten days, Lin You was almost entirely focused on hunting Lord Demons and collecting Rule Fragments.
Aside from some friction with other lords due to competing for Original Force Treasures, nothing notable happened.
On the eighth day, the second Space Core finally appeared.
Regrettably, he still didn’t manage to secure the final kill this time, only getting a consolation prize of 10,000 Rule Fragments.
Fortunately,
With various survival techniques and Time Laws, he successfully snatched eight Original Force Treasures, including two of the Plant Type.
This instantly increased the Time Law multiplier to a staggering 7 times!
At this moment, he even had the confidence to suppress a Tier Nine Lord for 10 seconds!
Another thing that pleased Lin You was the Rule Fragments.
Although the hunting efficiency of SS-level Lord Demons was much lower, he still managed to obtain around 6,000 pieces daily.
Considering the daily output of approximately 4,000 pieces from the Origin Universe and task rewards, he finally accumulated 120,000 Rule Fragments by the tenth day, successfully enhancing the Agility Attribute to its maximum value.
[Name: Lin You (Lord)]
[Race: Human]
[Level: Tier Eleven (5/10)]
[Power: 500,000 (+250,000)]
[Constitution: 1,000,000 (+700,000)]
[Agility: 1,000,000 (+500,000)]
[Spirit: 1,000,000 (+500,000)]
[Basic Skills: Multiple Mutations, Power of Rule, Space Travel, Rule Transformation, Space Passage, Time Law]
[Divine Power: All Attributes +50%]
[Racial Talent: Constitution +20%, Recovery Speed +20%]
[Introduction: Lord Attribute Interface, records the specific power and skills of the lord, unlocked at Tier Ten Lord.]
Enhancing Agility to its maximum value consumed nearly 70,000 Rule Fragments.
Lin You didn’t use the remaining 50,000 to enhance Power because the Power Attribute was the least beneficial to him; it’s safer to stay as a long-range output.
Moreover, he had too few Legendary Species, which greatly affected his speed in hunting Lord Demons.
So he used the remaining Rule Fragments to mutate over 4,000 Legendary Species, and with the previous ones, he now had exactly 6,000, multiplying several times over.
However, the greatest improvement was still in the Royal Species.
The Basic Attributes had already soared to nearly 900,000.
With full burst, it was equivalent to the level of Seven Divine Formats.
Adding Lin You himself, twelve Seven Divine Formats joining forces would be unimaginably terrifying, how many could withstand it?
It could be said.
Until today, Lin You finally possessed the capital to compete with those Veteran Lords and had the capital to kill other Low-tier Lords to seize Divine Formats.
"Looks like I must hurry to find a suitable target."
Lin You muttered to himself, his expression gradually becoming solemn.
But soon, his brow relaxed again.
Because today was the day the Divine Fragment in his Origin Universe matured, having just gathered three Divine Fragments, it was time to establish the remaining three duchies.
Thinking of this, he instantly teleported away from the Capital.
...
Meanwhile.
At the southern end of the Holy Protection Kingdom.
In Cyan Cloud City, a Tier Nine Territory in charge of the Southern Area.
Lord Shen Hui, as usual, was discussing territory affairs in the City Lord’s Mansion hall, handling various matters.
Suddenly.
The space beside him twisted, and a figure appeared in the hall out of thin air.
Shen Hui and his subordinates, who were discussing matters, were first taken aback, then shocked.
"Your Majesty! Why have you come?"
Shen Hui hurriedly rose from his seat and rushed to Lin You to pay his respects.
The subordinates who hadn’t seen Lin You before were instantly astonished upon hearing Shen Hui’s words, rushing behind Shen Hui, not daring to breathe.
"It’s nothing, just something I need to entrust to you."
Lin You glanced around at the crowd before him, speaking lightly.
"Your Majesty, just entrust it, I will do my utmost!"
Shen Hui solemnly said, his expression very serious.
When this territory was just divided as Saint Protection Duchy, he was only Tier Seven.
It was His Majesty the King who helped him continually improve his power, reaching Tier Nine, and entrusted him with the affairs of the Southern Area, gaining his current status.
Thus, he was incredibly loyal to Lin You, handling affairs with dedication, never slacking.
However.
Unexpectedly.
Just as his voice fell, Lin You suddenly flipped his palm, revealing a seven-colored crystal, making Shen Hui’s eyes widen in shock.
