Standing before the South Heaven Gate once more.
Lin Feng's mood was entirely different now.
Last time.
He had come to lift the curse on his teammates.
It was merely a stroke of luck.
That he ended up fighting the two great avatars of the Sanqing and the Two Saints of the West.
Though he had won in the end and gained much.
There was still an element of chance involved.
But this time.
He had a clear objective.
He intended to challenge what might be the two strongest existences in this game.
To lift the curse that had been placed upon him last time.
To exact revenge!
Therefore.
The moment he entered the South Heaven Gate, he unleashed his domain completely.
His domain, with its strength reaching hundreds of billions, was like a massive hedgehog.
Bosses that stealthily peeked out to assess the situation were instantly annihilated within his domain before Lin Feng himself was even seen.
With his void-traversing ability, Lin Feng's movement had become ridiculously fast.
It was akin to clicking on a map location with an exploit program and teleporting there.
His figure flickered to various locations, collecting treasure chests dropped by fallen bosses.
Even so, his speed was not affected.
He was even faster than the last time he was here.
He charged forward with all his might.
His gaze was firm.
This time.
He would face them head-on in a fair fight!
...
Yuanshi Tianzun stared intently at the soul of Tongtian Jiaozhu before him, his breathing ragged.
He had not expected.
That the broken soul of Tongtian Jiaozhu would possess such strong resistance.
It had taken him and Taishang Laojun nearly a month to obliterate its original consciousness.
And gradually merge it with themselves.
Now.
After so much patient effort, they had reached the final step.
In just a few minutes.
This soul would become a bodiless Heavenly Dao Saint.
Although.
It would not possess the same immense power as the two of them.
It would, however, possess the attribute that would allow the Sanqing to merge.
It was perfect.
Bang!
The two of them, their expressions excited, were on the verge of success.
Suddenly.
A tremendous roar echoed from outside.
They looked up, met each other's gaze, and their expressions changed drastically.
An enemy was attacking!
Yuanshi Tianzun instantly thought of the strange individual from nearly a month ago.
But then he reconsidered.
Under the curse of the two of them, let alone giving him a month to develop,
Even a year, or two or three years,
Would not enable him to possess the strength to challenge the two of them.
Could it be.
That it was someone else?
Bang!
As he pondered this, another deafening roar sounded again.
Countless beams of light shot in.
Lin Feng's figure appeared, and with a flash, he calmly walked in.
Yuanshi Tianzun stared at Lin Feng in disbelief, his mind filled with astonishment.
Had the Heavenly Dao barrier been broken so quickly?
And it was this individual, the most improbable one.
Moreover.
Why had this strange person's strength increased so rapidly?
Seeing Lin Feng's figure flicker, about to reach them.
Yuanshi Tianzun could no longer afford to think, and he moved to meet him.
"I'll deal with him first, you continue the fusion!"
He hastily uttered, then engaged Lin Feng in battle.
Taishang Laojun had just nodded in agreement.
He thought to himself that with his elder brother taking action, it would surely be resolved in an instant.
And they could return to finish the fusion later.
No sooner had this thought crossed his mind.
Than he saw the battle in the arena take a sudden turn.
Yuanshi Tianzun, whom he considered nearly invincible, was at a disadvantage after just one exchange.
Wtf?
He could hardly believe his eyes.
How was this possible?
But before he could comprehend it.
He witnessed an even more shocking sight.
Under Lin Feng's relentless sword energy and the powerful pressure of his domain.
Yuanshi Tianzun not only fell into a disadvantage, but was unable to make many moves.
In a colossal sword strike, the blue shield surrounding Yuanshi Tianzun's body became useless.
He was instantly killed by this single sword.
Yuanshi Tianzun, dead!
As his physical body collapsed, only a faint soul escaped in a hurry.
Then, it instantly appeared before him.
"Quick, merge!"
From the soul, Yuanshi Tianzun's urgent voice echoed.
Taishang Laojun suppressed the shock in his heart, extended his hands, and projected his consciousness outward.
Together with these two souls, one new and one old, he accelerated the fusion.
Instantly.
The one person and two souls seemed to form a unique aura.
And.
They quickly merged together.
As the power and the aura continued to grow.
A terrifying existence was being brewed and born.
The entire thirty-three heavens began to tremble slightly.
It seemed as if.
The birth of this existence.
Shook the very heavens and earth!
...
Lin Feng had come fully prepared this time.
After shattering the Heavenly Dao barrier with two swords, he did not hesitate.
He charged in directly.
Thus, he clashed with the approaching Yuanshi Tianzun from the very first encounter.
Facing this renowned existence, he naturally did not dare to be careless.
He went all out from the start.
Abilities that amplified his own Heavenly Dao power.
Abilities that reduced the opponent's Heavenly Dao power.
Control-type abilities.
Abilities that prevented the opponent from recovering health.
Various abilities were unleashed in succession.
Combined with several powerful divine artifacts he possessed.
His experience of fighting against mythical Heavenly Dao Saints for over ten consecutive days in the high-level Heavenly Dao Saint living zones.
Allowed him to exert great pressure on Yuanshi Tianzun from the very beginning of the battle.
And.
After unleashing a burst-type divine ability.
He instantly killed him.
"You have slain the mythical boss, Heavenly Dao Saint Yuanshi Tianzun."
"You have gained 7500 trillion Chaos Immortal Power."
"You have gained 1 billion Law Points."
"You have gained 140 million portions of Primordial Violet Qi."
"You have gained 1.75 million portions of Heavenly Dao Power."
...
Under the effect of [Painful Counterattack].
The harvest from this kill was astonishingly high.
Lin Feng picked up the treasure chest.
He was about to pursue his victory and take down the other culprit who had cursed him, Taishang Laojun.
But he discovered.
That the scene before him was not quite right.
After he collected the boss treasure chest dropped by the opponent.
Although Yuanshi Tianzun's physical body had perished.
A soul had drifted out from the body and escaped.
He swung the Four Swords of Zhu Xian in his hand, but found them useless.
He could only watch helplessly as the opponent's soul drifted to a nearby location.
Then he witnessed the fusion process organized by Taishang Laojun.
During this time, he attempted to move forward.
To disrupt it.
But he received a system notification.
"This time is a core event of the system process, you cannot use external forces to disrupt it."
A core event?
Lin Feng sensed a conspiracy.
If he could not disrupt it.
Then whatever was fused might be something he himself could not handle.
Cautiously, Lin Feng prepared to exit this realm.
At worst, he would temporarily avoid the sharp edge.
And return later to claim Taishang Laojun's head.
But just as he activated void traversal.
A palpably terrifying pressure arose out of nowhere, causing his figure to involuntarily stop in its tracks.
A blood-red figure slowly appeared, looking at Lin Feng with cold eyes.
"Trying to escape?"
"It's too late!"
A voice like a great bell struck Lin Feng's ears.
He felt his body stiffen.
"You have been attacked by the Great Dao divine ability [Nether Silence Qi], and you are in a stunned state."
"Your [Innate Five Directional Banner] characteristic [Invulnerable to All Arts] has been activated, reducing the control effect by half, and the duration has been shortened to 0.6 seconds."
A control ability superior to Heavenly Dao divine abilities?
Lin Feng was somewhat alarmed.
Fortunately, his treasure was potent.
Although the higher priority did not allow for direct immunity.
The 0.6 seconds would still pass in the blink of an eye.
As he thought this.
A profound aura swept over his body.
"You have been affected by the Great Dao Law [Myriad Times], and the 0.6 seconds have been extended to 6000 seconds."
Damn it!
Lin Feng cursed inwardly.
It could be played like this?
Immediately afterward.
An aura emanated from within his body as well.
Although not as profound as the opponent's, it also flickered with extraordinary effects.
"Your Heavenly Dao Law [Time Manipulation] has been autonomously activated, reducing the effect of the Great Dao Law [Myriad Times]; the 6000 seconds have been reduced to 300 seconds."
His own law had been activated!
Lin Feng's heart relaxed.
Although he was still controlled for 300 seconds.
At least he could see that he possessed some ability to resist.
Instead of being captured without resistance.
As he thought this.
The blood-red figure snorted coldly.
He waved his hands.
Then.
Countless torrents of Heavenly Dao power, like rain pouring from the sky, directly cascaded towards Lin Feng.
Even with his immense improvement over the past month, he felt a sense of powerlessness.
With just one move, Lin Feng was instantly killed.
With a physique of 8 million and various buffs, his health far surpassed that of mythical Saints, yet he was completely unable to resist.
Swish!
A flash of white light.
Lin Feng, who had already died, reappeared.
This was a divine ability he had recently acquired and had strengthened to the level of a Heavenly Dao divine ability.
Blood Rebirth!
It could consume Immortal Power, Primordial Violet Qi, or Heavenly Dao Power to condense corresponding true blood.
Upon facing death, one could be resurrected.
If Lin Feng's strength only relied on Primordial Violet Qi, enemies would not pose a threat to him.
Therefore, he consumed a considerable amount of Heavenly Dao Power to condense five drops of true blood.
This meant he could be resurrected five times.
And the moment he was resurrected, the blood-red figure opposite him showed no surprise.
Instead, it raised a massive palm and fiercely slapped down.
Boom!
Lin Feng instantly turned into a bloody mess.
Killed again.
Swish!
Although he continued to be resurrected.
Lin Feng's eyes were no longer calm.
Based on the current situation, five drops of true blood would only last him five more instances.
Facing such a monstrous opponent, even ten or eight more resurrections would offer little hope.
Ding!
Just as the opponent's palm was about to strike again.
This time, an unexpected event occurred.
A golden shield suddenly appeared, blocking the attack.
A flicker of surprise crossed Lin Feng's eyes.
This was the invincibility effect of Blood Rebirth being triggered!
Normally.
This effect should have been triggered automatically.
He speculated that perhaps the strength of the blood-red figure was too great, and the priority of its attack was too high.
That was why it had failed to trigger during the first death.
Fortunately.
This time, it had been triggered by luck.
But upon seeing the system notification, Lin Feng's joy instantly vanished.
The invincibility effect, which should have lasted for 10 minutes.
Had been reduced to only one minute.
After one minute, he would still face death.
This meant.
If he failed to trigger the invincibility effect in the subsequent few times.
This one minute would be his only chance for a comeback.
However, after searching through all his divine abilities, laws, and treasure effects,
He could not find any way to break free.
Bang!
Bang!
Within the span of one minute, the attacks of the blood-red hand did not cease.
The blood-red figure's eyes seemed filled with hatred for Lin Feng.
Its strikes were decisive.
One minute passed in a flash, and after the invincibility effect disappeared.
Lin Feng, as expected, was instantly killed again.
Swish!
Swish!
Two more consecutive deaths.
Yet, the invincibility effect was not triggered.
Lin Feng was already in despair.
Bang!
Just as he exhausted the last drop of Heavenly Dao true blood.
A golden-yellow shield appeared once more.
Lin Feng's spirit lifted.
The invincibility effect had been triggered again!
Furthermore.
This time, his luck was incredible.
It had directly triggered the unique effect with a duration of 1 hour.
Although it could only be triggered once within 24 hours.
It had still been reduced by the opponent's priority.
But there were still 6 minutes to serve as a buffer.
Lin Feng, unable to move anyway, ignored the opponent's relentless attacks.
Instead, his mind raced.
What other methods, what other avenues.
Could be used to increase his strength?
To break through the current dead end.
And defeat this boss?
He began to examine himself again.
He felt.
That there was still something he had overlooked.

A large chapter is presented. Friends, have a happy weekend!
