Kill Them All

"Roar!"

A massive White Tiger phantom hundreds of meters long suddenly appeared in the sky behind Alex, its golden eyes fixed on Lin En.

Innate Divine Ability—Tiger Roar!

"Buzz~~" A strange energy instantly spread out, enveloping Lin En!

"The space has been twisted! And this is an attack aimed at the soul!" Lin En's expression changed drastically. He finally understood why the Purple Thorn Lord God believed the White Tiger's Innate Divine Ability to be more powerful than that of the God Devouring Rat.

This strange energy also targeted the soul, but it was not a Soul Attack. Instead, it sealed away Soul Power!

The strange energy covered his sea of souls, completely calming the surging Soul Power within. He could no longer mobilize Soul Power to defend or attack!

"Die!"

The invisible Tiger Roar ripples moved as if by teleportation... No, they truly were teleporting. Because space had been twisted, the instant the ripples emerged from Alex's body, they spatially leaped directly into Lin En's Soul Space and struck his Soul Crystal.

"A divine beast's Innate Divine Ability is fucking disgusting!" Lin En looked up at Alex. The fiery red halo around his body was gradually dimming, and the energy from that drop of Sovereign's Might had already dissipated.

"At that instant, if I hadn't also been a divine beast, with the protection of innate Black Light in my Soul Space—or if his Soul Attack had been any stronger—I'd probably have suffered severe soul damage or even died!" Lin En still felt lingering fear.

Completely sealing the opponent's Soul Power was equivalent to leaving their Soul Space defenseless. On top of that, it twisted space, making that teleportation-like Soul Attack impossible to evade through speed!

No wonder the Purple Thorn Lord God thought the White Tiger's Innate Divine Ability was more powerful than the God Devouring Rat's!

After all, the God Devouring Rat's Innate Divine Ability was completely ineffective against Paragons and Lord Gods. But the White Tiger's move was immensely useful even in battles between Lord Gods!

Against an opponent of the same rank, facing this Tiger Roar ability, unless one fled far away, death was practically certain!

Lin En was still shaken, unaware that Alex felt as though he had seen a ghost.

After losing his soul defenses, the other man had taken his Soul Attack head-on—and nothing had happened to him?

Did he possess a soul-defense Divine Artifact? Or could it be...? All sorts of guesses surfaced in his mind.

Finally, after that brief moment, the fiery red halo around Alex completely vanished.

The Sovereign's Might had fully dissipated.

"Die!" Lin En transformed into a green blur and instantly crossed the void. His longsword, coated in pitch-black Origin Power, slashed viciously toward Alex. A lightning serpent burst from the blade, lunging straight for his head.

Faced with Lin En's attack, Alex had no intention of resisting. Even with Sovereign's Might and his Innate Divine Ability, he had been no match for him. Now that the Sovereign's Might was gone, he could only be slaughtered!

"Stop, stop, stop! I surrender!" In an instant, he transformed into hundreds of clones. As he fled, he shouted loudly that he surrendered.

At that moment, the arena host's voice rang out at just the right time. "Lin En, eight victories!"

As the host's words fell, a passage suddenly opened beneath the battle platform near Alex's many clones. Alex hurriedly darted toward it.

But—

"Yooo~~~" A piercing shriek tore through the sky, and a God Devouring Rat phantom hundreds of meters long appeared behind Lin En.

"Stop!" Just as Lin En used his Innate Divine Ability, the arena host's furious shout resounded across the battle platform.

Lin En acted as though he had heard nothing. He forcibly used his Innate Divine Ability again to lock onto Alex's true body. Immediately afterward, a lightning serpent shot directly into Alex's mind.

At once, the hundreds of clones in the air vanished simultaneously, leaving only Alex's true body twitching endlessly in midair. His aura rapidly weakened until it finally disappeared completely. His corpse crashed heavily onto the battle platform with a "thud."

Without the protection of Sovereign's Might, even though Alex was a divine beast, he had only one path before Lin En's Soul Attack, which was stronger than a commander's: death!

"Hmph! He still has a Destructive Mid-level God clone!" Lin En casually waved his hand, and Alex's two divine sparks, Divine Artifacts, and Spatial Ring all flew into his grasp.

The blond-haired host in black armor descended into the arena. He first glanced at Alex's corpse on the ground before glaring viciously at Lin En. "I already declared you the victor. Why didn't you stop?"

Lin En merely glanced at him and ignored him completely, calmly walking toward the passageway of the battle platform.

"You won, yet you still took his life!" the blond host shouted. "Do you have no regard for Floating Light City?"

Hearing this, Lin En slowly turned around. He clearly remembered that when Alex had used Sovereign's Might and he himself had surrendered, this man had not opened the passage below or declared the battle over.

And now he was putting on a righteous act and demanding an explanation!

At that thought, a trace of killing intent flashed through Lin En's brows. As his eyes opened and closed, lightning flickered faintly within them.

Did the man think Lin En would not dare kill him simply because he was an official of Floating Light City?

"You're courting death!"

"Whoosh!"

Without warning, two bolts of lightning shot from Lin En's eyes. They moved so quickly that the blond host had no chance to dodge, striking directly into his body. The host's body trembled slightly before he collapsed limply to the ground, never making another sound.

Seeing Lin En kill the host outright, the millions of gods watching in the arena instantly fell silent.

Floating Light City had stood for countless years, and the arena had existed for countless years as well. Yet they had truly never heard of a god participating in a battle and directly killing the host inside the arena.

Lin En cast a provocative glance toward Makram, who sat in the stands with a gloomy expression beneath a fiery red robe, before calmly leaving the battle platform.

As for the host's divine spark and belongings, he did not take them, leaving them behind on the battle platform!

In the viewing stands, as Lin En departed, a roar of discussion erupted.

"That was Sovereign's Might Alex used, wasn't it? How did Lord Lin En win?"

"Lord Lin En used Lord God Power too!"

"I never thought I'd get to see two powerful experts use Lord God Power in battle today. This was so worth it!"

"Little brother, you recorded that battle, right? Let's hurry to Muya Castle and sell the scryer recording for a high price!"

"Shh! Alex is from the Four Divine Beast Families!"

"Seven-star Demon! He's definitely a Seven-star Demon!" Makram clenched his fists so tightly that he nearly crushed his own bones. "And that black energy he used at the end was most likely Destruction Lord God Power!"

Not far away, the illegitimate son of the Talin Family, with long black hair and an utterly ordinary appearance, watched Lin En leave. His eyes lit up, and a thoughtful look flashed through them.
