The Star-Stealing Bandit Gang, the Pioneers, and Lin Hui's own forces, combined with the Extreme Cold, form a newly formed four-person force. Each of the three points can unleash the strength of a seventh-ring cultivator. Now, when they unite, this is undoubtedly a formidable force.
A single force of the three races might not necessarily be able to defeat him.
After all, there's a powerful True Lord of Seven Destructions to be the grand finale.
However, Lin Hui's purpose was not to cause trouble, but simply to improve his own level. The collection of Existence Force was only to provide reserves for the evolution of the Blood Seal. If it weren't for the need for Time String technique, he wouldn't have even planned to devise a simple plan to overthrow the three races.
After all, the more and more Time String emerge as times change, the more continuous they become.
Therefore, the complete annihilation of the three races was not his wish. The complete peaceful elimination of war was also not his wish. What he wanted was to maintain this chaotic state that could continuously generate the Time String.
Currently, due to the black Time String behind Indoma, one person's Time String output is comparable to that of more than half of the Pioneers. In addition, there are the Pioneers and their disciple Lin Yuexiu.
Lin Hui absorbed the techniques from three directions, and his cultivation of the Unfinished Final Scene Sword Technique improved rapidly. It seemed that he would be able to enter the fourth level in just two months.
But at this critical juncture, a major incident occurred on the battlefield between the three races.
The Black Domain Void.
Lin Hui gazed into the distance at the battlefield of the three races, where the fighting had created clouds of unknown, gelatinous red matter floating around them.
The place was originally empty, just a void. But since the war between the three races began, the corpses, flesh, and debris on the edge have been increasing, and no one has cleaned it up, nor has anyone dared to clean it up.
The mixture of these wars accumulated here, growing larger over time, eventually forming this bizarre scene. The red, gelatinous cloud, resembling a giant, hole-ridden sphere, enveloped the battlefield.
Lin Hui gazed quietly into the distance. If it were a regular Sixth Ring Road, standing this far away, he wouldn't be able to discern any signs.
But he was different. With his keen sense of calamity, he could clearly perceive that Ashes and the Sea Roar Force had suddenly appeared in certain corners of the battlefield.
"As expected, they've officially intervened... Extreme Cold really didn't lie to me." Actually, Lin Hui wasn't worried about whether the information he received was true, but rather whether the information Extreme Cold had obtained was true.
After all, that guy seemed a bit slow on the uptake.
"Should we go in and get involved too?" Lin couldn't help but ask from behind.
Now that her strength has greatly increased, she feels confident and might as well go in and test her skills.
The other two, Wei and Li, also showed similar longing, glancing at Lin Hui.
Regardless, Extreme Cold instructed them to obey Lin Hui completely. Whatever he told them to do, they had to do it, even if it meant death.
Since the Fusion Faction can't die, they can be resurrected and remain in their original state. They can stay in the same state as when they fused.
If the will of calamity so desires, it can even slow down the rate at which their cognition is eroded.
This is the benefit of cooperating directly with the will of calamity.
"No need. The current situation is in our best interest," Lin Hui shook his head slightly, refusing.
With the flow of Time String endless and the Existence Force gathering amidst the chaos unchecked, when could things be more advantageous for him than now?
Therefore, he actually hoped that the war could continue indefinitely. The depletion of the three races would be a great benefit to him and the entire human realm. It's just a pity... that Ashes and Hai Ming are now planning to ruin his plans.
Lin Hui had an urge to eliminate Ashes Sea right now. But the calamity was immortal and indestructible, so killing it was useless; it was extremely troublesome.
For a moment, he couldn't even think of what to do with the Ashes and the Hai Ming.
Aside from special methods like Intent Preservation, everything else is of little use to the Fusion Faction.
Now he could understand why many powerful forces were so troubled by the Fusion Faction.
"The situation is clearly changing, and the allied forces of Dragon Court and Swallow Fort are gradually falling into a greater disadvantage. If this continues, it may not be long before the war ends completely," Lin said in a deep voice.
"Never mind, let's go." Lin Hui turned around and flew towards a certain part of the void in the Black Domain.
Now, his main body no longer resides permanently in the Heart Source Demon Palace. Instead, he has used a previously evolved spaceship to build an extremely sturdy and concealed base, where he will, as expected, live from now on. The Heart Source Demon Palace, which preserves the Illusion Destruction Eye, will become an even more hidden place in the future. The four then turned around and prepared to fly away.
Suddenly, they felt a burst of golden light explode.
The four of them quickly turned around.
Then they saw that the punctured sphere, which had previously been covered by a gel, was now radiating dazzling golden light from within.
"This place is about two light-minutes away from the battlefield, which means these lights occurred two minutes ago." Lin Hui's expression was solemn. He could already sense that the Seven Kings Alliance on the battlefield were suffering a series of defeats.
The Dragon Court and Swallow Fort were alright, but the Seven Kings Alliance suffered a defeat as swiftly as an avalanche.
The god-kings who had been fighting against Zhu Li above seemed to have completely lost their resistance, unleashing dazzling and chaotic golden pillars of Divine Power. " Zhu Li has won! Now, it's time for reckoning." Lin's expression was also grim.
"No, it hasn't come to that yet. The God-King still has his main headquarters intact, so he won't die so easily. It's just that this time we lost, and the situation is clear... We probably don't have much time left," Lin Hui said.
"Yes, once Zhu Li has free time, she will definitely target us for retribution. Without our biggest threat, we have no value or basis for existence." Li, the newly joined matriarch, does have some sense.
"Let's go, we need to hurry." Lin Hui didn't waste any more words, turned around and disappeared instantly.
The other three quickly followed.
With the battle situation suddenly changing, detailed information quickly came from various channels and was compiled to Lin Hui.
With the Seven Kings defeated, no one in the Seven Rings can now stand against Zhu Li.
Within the God Clan, he was the only one who advanced to the seventh ring entirely on his own merits, without any deception. Moreover, he had kept this secret for countless years. The other few military leaders, including Ping Yun, all relied on external aids to temporarily elevate themselves to the seventh ring.
The gap in strength is obvious.
On the Red Pattern Star, Lin Hui rapidly absorbed the power of the Time String from his disciple Lin Yuexiu.
At the same time, the intelligence gathered from Yan Qiushi, the Pioneers, and his senior brother Indoma was compared.
"It seems that this Zhu Li is likely already close to the level of our teacher. No, it's safer to consider him to be on the same level as our teacher." To fight against seven seventh-ring god-kings alone—such strength is indeed formidable.
He recalled how the Chaos Emperor had been injured by Ping Yun's Avatar.
"Judging from this, Yun's true strength should surpass that of the Chaos Emperor. Both are at the seventh ring, so Zhu Li and our teacher are in the first tier, followed by Ping Yun, then the Chaos Emperor, and perhaps the God Kings are also in this category. Finally, there's our senior brother Indoma, who has been severely injured and sealed away for many years."
"Aside from them, we don't yet know the level of the other veteran Seven Rings from Dragon Court and Swallow Fort. If we clash with Zhu Li, we won't be able to withstand Ping Yun's surprise attack for now. Our strength and power are not enough."
"Teacher, how is it? I've broken through in strength, and my Wind Sword Art can now gather energy vortexes at the fastest speed!" Lin Yuexiu's voice pulled Lin Hui out of his analytical thoughts.
"Very good, very good." Lin Hui nodded, somewhat absentmindedly.
"Teacher, is something on your mind lately?" Lin Yuexiu asked with a slightly worried expression.
"It's nothing, just... I suddenly received some unexpected news, which is a bit worrying," Lin Hui said helplessly.
"Would you like me to massage your head, Master?" Lin Yuexiu took the initiative to come closer, stood behind him, and gently massaged Lin Hui's temples. Feeling his disciple's filial piety, Lin Hui's mood eased a little.
Furthermore, defying Fate Reversal is useless; the Illusion Destruction Eye are immortal and indestructible, and the sword technique itself has the ultimate killing move.
It's time to take action.
Regarding Zhu Li and Ping Yun, we must plan ahead in advance.
It seemed that his apprentice's massage was really effective, as Lin Hui felt much better. He once again gave her pointers on the cultivation techniques of the Wind Sword Art, while his main body quietly activated the Heart Source Demon Crown and collected some remains of the God Clan race experts at the edge of the battlefield.
Lin Hui suppressed his nausea and began the detailed work of truly studying and understanding the physiological structure of the Endless Divine Clan.
The more you know, the more lifelines you can see, and the faster you can unlock the final scene.
To fully unleash the power of sword techniques, thorough preparation is essential.
Time passed slowly, and a month went by in the blink of an eye.
During this month, the Seven Kings Alliance was completely defeated, and they could only retreat to their own bases and shrink all their forces.
A month later, the First Divine King's fortress was destroyed, and God King Zhao Ji mysteriously disappeared. The other God Kings also abandoned their fortresses and left at lightning speed.
Huge upheavals also broke out within Dragon Court and Swallow Fort. With Zhu Li's support, the emerging forces launched a direct attack on the old forces' strongholds, and the two sides began a second round of fierce fighting.
At this moment, Zhu Li, who should have appeared to completely resolve the battle, was nowhere to be seen, as if he had disappeared.
The God Clan Seventh Army.
Zhu Li sat upright on the throne of the military lord, one hand supporting his chin, the other palm holding a golden badge that was bobbing up and down. The badge was very strange, with a pale white flame burning inside, within which countless blurry God Clan runes could be seen flashing rapidly. Those runes were special characters that had appeared on the rune rings behind the God Clan.
At this very moment, they were all flashing rapidly within the flames, alternating and repeating.
"This is the warrant. Next, I need some time to study and digest this. You can take care of the rest of the miscellaneous tasks, Yun." Zhu Li looked up at Ping Yun, who was standing quietly below.
"Leave it to me." Yun smiled and nodded.
"Don't worry, I'll get the second one soon, and then you can absorb it," Zhu Li said generously.
"No need. It's said that all the God King Authority Token must be collected before a more mysterious and powerful comprehensive ability will be activated. It would be more effective if you could teach it to me after you have fully understood and digested it," Ping Yun said earnestly.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, but it might take some time," Zhu Li sighed.
"It's alright. This Decay world needs your absolute force to suppress everything in order to usher in a brighter future. Therefore, your presence here is of utmost importance," Ping Yun continued.
"Yes, I understand." Zhu Li nodded.
Their goal has never changed from the beginning.
The god-king Decay, the high-ranking officials suppress the lower ranks in the war, the system is backward, and the old and rotten leaders only know how to indulge in debauchery. All of this has caused the race to completely lose its vitality and drive.
