In the images conveyed to him by the Ice Abyss Sword, Lu Jun saw himself floating in midair, with the Ice Abyss Sword deeply embedded in that mass of golden-red God King Power.
Vast energy surged wildly into the Ice Abyss Sword like a burst dam, then flowed through the blade and poured into his body.
His aura rose at a terrifying rate. The barrier of a Second-Level God shattered in an instant, followed by that of a First-Level God...
The threshold of a God King...
The entire process appeared extraordinarily smooth, the energy fusion unbelievably seamless.
Yet at the critical moment when his power reached that threshold, when he was about to complete the final transformation and truly ascend to the throne of a God King—
An indescribable, unobservable, incomprehensible mysterious power suddenly descended without warning, as if it originated from the most fundamental level of the Cosmic Law.
It was not an energy impact, nor was it a physical attack. It was more like... a negation at the level of rules.
An invisible wall, absolute in every sense, appeared out of nowhere and brutally cut off his final step toward becoming a God King.
Lu Jun in the image was instantly filled with shock, unwillingness, and pain. His rising aura was cut in half and came to an abrupt halt.
Even more terrifyingly, the backlash of that mysterious law power followed. He violently spat out blood, the Divine Power around him instantly falling into disorder and rampaging out of control. Like a kite with its string cut, he fell from the sky as his consciousness rapidly sank into darkness.
The Ice Abyss Sword also let out a mournful cry, its radiance dimming as if it had suffered a grievous blow alongside him.
"Lu Jun!"
