Chapter 289
🕑 Added 2024-09-14 04:00:01 +0000 UTCFor Lin Yuan, spending more than half an hour to kill the ten strongest eighth-Rank geniuses of the Tianyu Race, each holding a ninth-rank secret treasure, was the result of holding back his full strength.
During the battle, he even had to be extremely cautious, fearing that he might accidentally crush them prematurely.
However, the eighth-Rank invincible evolvers among the human observers were deeply shocked.
"The Milky Way Star Lord killed another invincible eighth-Rank wielder of a ninth-rank secret treasure?"
"And this invincible eighth-Rank being is one of the ten strongest eighth-Rank lives of the Tianyu Race?"
The eighth-Rank invincible evolvers were astonished. Even among invincible eighth-Rank beings, there are differences in strength.
The invincible eighth-Rank beings sent by the Tianyu Race were undoubtedly the very top tier, and they were equipped with ninth-rank secret treasures?
Yet, they were killed one by one by the Milky Way Star Lord?
How unbelievable is this?
"As expected of the Milky Way Star Lord!" The Baiyun Star Lord was excited. Lin Yuan, with his own strength, had completely dominated the Tianyu Race's top combat power.
This greatly boosted the morale of the humans.
In this situation, the Baiyun Star Lord was confident they would not lose this war.
"Take advantage of this moment and launch a counterattack immediately."
The Baiyun Star Lord was about to command the numerous eighth-Rank invincible evolvers.
Then, he saw an incredible sight.
In the distance, the invincible eighth-Rank beings of the Tianyu Race, as if frightened, began to retreat.
"What?"
The Baiyun Star Lord was stunned.
He could not understand why the Tianyu Race would retreat completely.
This meant they were giving up on this battlefield and this war.
Why?
Although the Milky Way Star Lord was strong, it wasn't too outrageous. After all, it took him more than half an hour; the Tianyu Race could have sent more invincible eighth-Rank strong beings to hold him off.
Why retreat directly?
The Baiyun Star Lord couldn't understand.
Neither could the invincible eighth-Rank evolvers of human civilization.
However.
At this moment.
Lin Yuan, who was standing in the sky above the battlefield, silently disappeared.
Deep within multiple layers of space, a ninth-rank strong being of the Tianyu Race's expression suddenly changed dramatically.
"This is bad."
This ninth-rank strong being wanted to make a move but ultimately held back.
Buzz.
The next moment.
Lin Yuan's figure appeared above the heads of the numerous fleeing invincible eighth-Rank beings of the Tianyu Race.
"Die!"
Lin Yuan moved his mind, unleashing the power of space rules and the cosmic power.
This power was not fully formed, only halfway merged, but it was barely usable.
Boom.
The invisible fusion power swept in all directions, turning the invincible eighth-Rank beings of the Tianyu Race into powder, as fragile as thin paper.
"No"
A few invincible eighth-Rank beings who had already fled far away showed expressions of terror, but they were also turned to powder by the sweeping invisible fusion power.
In just a few breaths, dozens of invincible eighth-Rank beings of the Tianyu Race, who had scattered and fled, all fell to their deaths.
Although these invincible eighth-Rank beings still had their true bodies and were not completely dead, forming an avatar with strength close to the true body is not an easy task.
It can be predicted that for a long time to come, these invincible eighth-Rank beings of the Tianyu Race will be unable to support other battlefields.
"Space rings and bracelets..."
Lin Yuan raised his right hand, and dozens of space storage treasures from those invincible eighth-Rank beings of the Tianyu Race fell into his hand.
Although these invincible eighth-Rank beings wouldn't carry overly precious treasures on them, to ensure the combat power of their avatars, they would at least carry eighth-rank level weapon secret treasures.
These weapon secret treasures, while individually not highly valuable, collectively amounted to a considerable fortune, not less than 200,000 universe crystals.
"This, this..."
In the territory of the Tianyu Race, the true bodies of the invincible eighth-Rank beings opened their eyes. They had just lost their avatars, and their expressions were filled with horror.
"How could this be?"
"The Milky Way Star Lord's strength is terrifying."
"Ninth-rank, this must be ninth-rank. The human civilization has violated the rules by deploying a ninth-rank evolver."
"It shouldn't be ninth-rank; otherwise, our ninth-rank beings would have intervened long ago. But even if the Milky Way Star Lord is not ninth-rank, his combat power exceeds the threshold of ninth-rank, otherwise, he couldn't crush us like this."
The hearts of the invincible eighth-Rank beings of the Tianyu Race trembled.
A newly ascended ninth-rank being, who hasn't comprehended complete space rules, would find it difficult to kill an invincible eighth-Rank being.
But the Milky Way Star Lord could sweep through invincible eighth-Rank beings and kill them with ease. His combat power was beyond that of ordinary ninth-rank beings.
"The Milky Way Star Lord was hiding his strength all along."
"Now I understand why our ninth-rank being ordered a retreat."
"Human civilization is truly favored by the cosmos, to have birthed such a monstrous talent like the Milky Way Star Lord."
The invincible eighth-Rank beings of the Tianyu Race spoke with complex emotions, feeling fear, dread, reverence, and a bit of admiration for Lin Yuan.
To unleash ninth-rank combat power while being at the eighth Rank, though it's unclear how the Milky Way Star Lord did it, from an evolutionary perspective, he was undoubtedly ahead of them.
Not just ahead, far beyond any eighth-Rank life of this generation across the cosmic starry sky and all species, including those from peak races, all appeared insignificant before the Milky Way Star Lord.
On the human side.
All evolvers watched as the invincible eighth-Rank beings of the Tianyu Race were turned to powder under Lin Yuan's feet.
They fell into a stunned silence.
The scene before them was too stimulating. Originally, Lin Yuan spending over half an hour to kill those Tianyu Race geniuses with ninth-rank secret treasures had already excited many human evolvers. But now, the Milky Way Star Lord killed those invincible eighth-Rank beings as easily as killing chickens.
No, easier than killing chickens, as chickens would struggle, but those invincible eighth-Rank beings of the Tianyu Race couldn't even struggle and were just gone.
The human evolvers had imagined winning the war against the Tianyu Race under the Milky Way Star Lord's leadership, but that would inevitably involve hard-fought battles and even the loss of some invincible eighth-Rank humans.
But now?
The Milky Way Star Lord solved it all?
From beginning to end, aside from the Baiyun Star Lord making a move, the rest of the invincible eighth-Rank evolvers were like ornaments, just watching.
"Milky Way Star Lord!"
"Invincible Milky Way Star Lord!"
All the invincible eighth-Rank beings were completely fervent. They had never seen an eighth-Rank life form so strong that it could reverse-kill ninth-Rank beings. This was exceedingly rare for the evolvers of human civilization.
Human civilization had a large population, but the average aptitude of individuals was at the bottom among peak races, though they occasionally produced genius prodigies.
However, the strong members of peak races also produced prodigious geniuses.
Over the 2.4 million years of the Star Sea Calendar, the strongest geniuses at each rank from human civilization had slight differences compared to the strongest geniuses of other peak races, with few matching their strength.
But now.
The Milky Way Star Lord, despite being at the eighth Rank, was far ahead of the eighth-Rank beings from other peak races.
Deep within multiple layers of space.
The ninth-rank strong being of the Tianyu Race stared at Lin Yuan with murderous intent almost spilling out.
The strength Lin Yuan displayed now was so overwhelming that it made even him nervous. Such an extraordinary talent, the longer he lived, the more losses the Tianyu Race would face in the future.
"Ancestor..."
The ninth-rank strong being of the Tianyu Race immediately contacted the ancestral being of the Race.
The Tianyu Race, like human civilization and the Insect Race, belonged to peak races, standing at the top of the universe, overlooking all races.
The Tianyu Race had seven ancestors, each a strongest one. In most cases, the seven ancestors did not intervene in matters.
But now, the ninth-rank strong being of the Tianyu Race thought it necessary to report about the Milky Way Star Lord to the ancestors.
Soon.
The ancestor's reply came to his mind.
"There is a strongest one of human civilization observing here."
The ninth-rank strong being of the Tianyu Race was slightly stunned, knowing he couldn't do anything to the Milky Way Star Lord.
Even if the ancestor intervened, the strongest one from the human side would also act, making it impossible to kill the Milky Way Star Lord and would escalate the war.
On the other side, deep within multiple layers of space.
The ninth-rank evolver 'Xilan' from the human side was equally tense, having contacted the strongest one in advance.
After Lin Yuan killed dozens of invincible eighth-Rank beings of the Tianyu Race within a few breaths, he realized the severity of the situation.
The Milky Way Star Lord's aptitude far exceeded expectations.
He alone could not stop the Tianyu Race's murderous intent, so he directly contacted the strongest one.
The result of the reply from the strongest one...
They were already observing here, so there was no need to panic.
"It seems the incredible talent of the Milky Way Star Lord had long caught the eyes of several strongest ones from human civilization," Xilan thought to himself.
Under normal circumstances, even if the strongest ones were observing this ancient alien battlefield, they would only split a negligible part of their consciousness.
But the reply from the strongest one seemed to suggest they were watching?
Swoosh.
Lin Yuan's figure disappeared again.
He reappeared next to the invincible eighth-Rank beings of the human side.
"I'll leave the cleanup to you now." Lin Yuan looked at the Baiyun Star Lord, "I'll be off now."
"Thank you, Milky Way Star Lord." The Baiyun Star Lord and the invincible eighth-Rank beings were excited and thrilled. Even the youngest among them was nearly ten thousand years old, but at this moment, they were filled with admiration and even pride for Lin Yuan.
"Milky Way Star Lord, your strength must have surpassed many ninth-Rank beings." The Baiyun Star Lord couldn't help but exclaim.
"Surpassed ninth-Rank?"
Lin Yuan smiled faintly.
The Tai Chi Primordial Spirit indeed possessed strength beyond ordinary ninth-Rank beings, but Lin Yuan's strongest combat power still resided in his true body.
The inner world spanning over a hundred million miles provided a substantial boost to his strength, making it a qualitative change.
"Get to the cleanup."
Lin Yuan said casually.
With the loss of dozens of invincible eighth-Rank beings, the Tianyu Race would certainly not continue to reinforce this battlefield.
Reinforce?
Reinforce so Lin Yuan could kill more?
The Tianyu Race, though with profound resources, losing dozens of invincible eighth-Rank beings was no small matter. They were not foolish.
With Lin Yuan displaying such over-the-top combat power, no matter how many eighth-Rank beings they sent, they would only face death.
Given this, it was better to abandon battlefield B0001 and minimize the losses.
"Swish!"
Lin Yuan lingered for a moment, watching as the human evolvers quickly took control of the situation, confirming that the Tianyu Race had no further interest in this battlefield, and then silently disappeared.
Lin Yuan's rampage on the alien battlefield B0001, killing dozens of invincible eighth-Rank beings, including six of the strongest eighth-Rank lives of the Tianyu Race, spread like a storm to other battlefields.
In numerous medium-sized battlefields, aliens began to fear. Since Lin Yuan could appear on battlefield B0001, he could naturally descend on their battlefields.
Given the Milky Way Star Lord's strength to kill dozens of invincible eighth-Rank beings, wouldn't he dominate other alien battlefields as well?
Who could stop the Milky Way Star Lord?
For a while, major races felt immense pressure, leading to a strategic contraction on battlefields. They avoided stepping out of their 'strongholds' unless absolutely necessary.
The pressure on human civilization's evolvers on various battlefields suddenly reduced, and the situation reversed.
Even several peak races secretly bestowed tenth-rank secret treasures to prevent the Milky Way Star Lord's descent.
Since human civilization began its outward expansion, no eighth-Rank life had ever single-handedly influenced all medium-sized and small alien battlefields, causing aliens on those battlefields to tremble and change their strategies.
This was something only a strongest one could achieve.
After acting, Lin Yuan returned to the 30,000-meter-long permanent space rift to continue accumulating boundary-breaking source power.
"Unfortunately, such a battlefield sweep can only be done once; the risk would increase rapidly the second time."
Lin Yuan sighed.
This time, he managed to sweep battlefield B0001 because he caught the Tianyu Race off guard.
The Tianyu Race never anticipated Lin Yuan's terrifying strength, where invincible eighth-Rank beings were casually killed by him.
But after this experience, other aliens on battlefields would be wary and certainly have countermeasures against Lin Yuan.
For instance, tenth-rank secret treasures?
Or other once-off treasures with terrifying power?
Even if an invincible eighth-Rank being couldn't fully utilize a tenth-rank secret treasure's power, it could still threaten Lin Yuan. After all, it was a weapon for tenth-rank beings.
"That's about enough."
"Because of precautions against me, aliens on those battlefields will be cautious, which will alleviate some pressure for human evolvers."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
He single-handedly influenced other battlefields by exploiting the rule that only eighth-Rank beings could act in medium-sized alien battlefields.
But to truly influence the bigger picture and other peak races.
One had to become a strongest one.
Milky Way Home Star.
Lin Yuan's Yin Primordial Spirit arrived, bringing the spoils from battlefield 0001.
The Yang Primordial Spirit was stationed at the 30,000-meter-long permanent space rift to maintain the efficiency of accumulating a strand of boundary-breaking source power every 150 days.
As for the Yin Primordial Spirit, it was free to deliver the spoils to Lin Yuan.
"Big gain."
A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face; only he knew the extent of this gain.
"Hmm? The Goddess of Freedom has already settled one-tenth of the total merits? The merit points are already credited to my account?"
Lin Yuan hadn't yet counted the spoils when he received more good news.
"I wonder how many merit points..." Lin Yuan looked expectantly and began checking immediately.
