"I see. He sealed his own power within the Imperial Seal of the State, and then used the power of his descendants' bloodline to activate the projection."
Seeing this scene, Lin An understood that this was the trump card of the Heavenly Revelation Empire's royal family.
It's likely that the other two great empires have similar trump cards.
Lin An's gaze fell on the projection, which, even though it was just a projection, possessed the aura of Sovereign Realm First Grade.
However, since it was just a projection, it was naturally no match for him, a true Sovereign Realm. If the two were to fight, he could shatter the projection with a single slap.
"This Heavenly Revelation Grand Progenitor was probably not an ordinary Sovereign Realm expert back then; he was at least a Late Sovereign Realm."
"Otherwise, the projection wouldn't still contain the power of Sovereign Realm First Grade after so many years."
Lin An had just reviewed the royal records, and according to them, the royal family had used its trump cards thirty-seven times in the past three thousand years.
Every time a trump card is used, it means that the power of the Heavenly Revelation Grand Progenitor's projection will be consumed.
This is the thirty-eighth time it has been used. This projection still possesses the power of Sovereign Realm First Grade, which means that the Heavenly Revelation Grand Progenitor was not an ordinary Sovereign Realm expert three thousand years ago.
Then Lin An looked at the jade seal, which was now shining brightly and exuding great power.
However, Lin An clearly sensed that the Sovereign Realm power within the Jade Seal was actually very weak.
It seems that after this incident, even if the royal family can still activate the projection of the Heavenly Revelation Grand Progenitor in the future, the projection's strength will no longer be able to reach the level of the Sovereign Realm.
"However, if Heavenly Revelation Emperor's plan is followed, pacifying the Sin Beast this time will bring decades of peace. That's enough time for him to repair the passage and then leave the Myriad Spirits Realm for the next Domain."
As Lin An pondered this, he made no move to intervene and quietly observed the battle.
At the same time, the moment Heavenly Revelation Emperor made his move, all the Sin Beast in the Sin Beast Mother Nest showed fear on their faces.
"Oh no, we've been discovered."
The Sin Beast were shocked. Feeling the terrifying pressure, they knew that the Heavenly Revelation Emperor had personally arrived and was unleashing his full power.
"There's no need to panic; we are certainly capable of resisting."
"That's just a projection of the Sovereign Realm expert, with only the power of a single strike. As long as we can withstand that attack, how can the Heavenly Revelation Empire fight against us?"
At this moment You'er'ge spoke, silencing all the Sin Beast.
"But what means do we have to deal with this?" Ma'ersi, one of the three newly joined King Realm Ninth Grade Sin Beast, asked in confusion.
You'er'ge did not speak, but the bells on its tentacles suddenly began to sway, and then the entire Sin Beast Mother Nest shook.
Outside, the original Sin Beast Mother Nest, which was only the size of a grain of rice, began to expand at an extremely rapid speed, transforming into a colossal creature in just a few breaths.
At the same time, You'er'ge's tentacles rapidly extended, directly severing some blood vessels on the core of the Mother Nest and connecting with it.
boom!
The next instant, the core of the Mother Nest shone brightly, the connected blood vessels pulsated rapidly, and the power within surged wildly into You'er'ge's body along its tentacles.
Under this power, You'er'ge's aura surged rapidly, and even his size increased dramatically.
In the blink of an eye, You'er'ge's body had grown to several thousand feet tall, and beneath its tentacles, the Mother Nest was hidden, continuously providing it with power.
"Unfortunately, it's still a bit lacking. Although it far surpasses the King Realm Ninth Grade, it's still quite a distance from the Sovereign Realm."
Lin An watched all this calmly. This You'er'ge was probably only at the Half-Step Sovereign level, but even that half-step was a world of difference.
At least if he wanted to, a single finger would be enough to kill him.
"However, it does give me the ability to contend with the projection of the Heavenly Revelation Grand Progenitor," Lin An thought to himself.
On the other side, Heavenly Revelation Emperor was slightly surprised as he watched the Sin Beast's methods. He knew the Sin Beast must have some trump cards, but he didn't expect that its trump cards would be able to rival his own.
Although the aura emanating from You'er'ge was not as powerful as the projection of the Great Ancestor, it was definitely far superior to the King Realm Ninth Grade.
However, given that things have come to this point, it's impossible to give up now.
On the contrary, it is precisely because we have recognized the power of the Sin Beast Sin Beast that we must annihilate it, no matter the cost.
"Kill!"
Heavenly Revelation Emperor snorted coldly.
The projection of the Great Ancestor slowly raised his hand. The movement seemed gentle and slow, but the power contained within it was extremely astonishing.
Soon, the projection of the Great Ancestor extended a finger and pointed it directly at You'er'ge.
This finger strike may seem slow, but it contains boundless power, as if the entire world is enveloped by it.
The surrounding space was sealed off, forming an absolute domain that left You'er'ge with nowhere to escape.
Although You'er'ge's strength had increased dramatically, it still felt immense pressure when it sensed the power of that finger strike.
It knew full well that the power of this finger strike was extraordinary, and that if it was not careful, it might be killed by it.
However, You'er'ge also understood that retreating was no longer an option; if it chose to retreat, it would only be killed by the shockwave.
Only by unleashing all our strength can we contend with it.
Swish, swish, swish...
Its tentacles swayed wildly like willow branches in a gale, and the power within the core of the Mother Nest surged forth continuously, causing its aura to rise even higher in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, hundreds of tentacles quickly intertwined and tangled together.
It seemed to transform into a drill, heading straight for the finger projected by the founding emperor.
Rumble...
The mere commotion caused by their attack caused the void to tremble violently.
Immediately afterwards, a deafening roar was heard, and the two attacks finally collided violently in the void.
The void was torn apart in that instant, and a violent force was unleashed like a flood bursting its banks.
Heavenly Revelation Emperor and the others' expressions changed drastically. Even though they were all at the King Realm Ninth Grade, if it weren't for the protection of the Grand Ancestor's projection, the aftershocks alone would have been enough to shatter them.
"Is this the power of the Sovereign Realm? Under such an existence, even the King Realm is nothing but an ant," Zhou Shengyuan couldn't help but exclaim.
Although the elder was also amazed, he remained relatively calm, as it wasn't the first time he had seen the ancestor's projection take action.
"It's a pity it's just a projection; it can't unleash the full power of the Sovereign Realm," Lin An, who was watching the show from the sidelines, shook his head and said.
The strongest being in the Sovereign Realm is the ability to alter the rules of heaven and earth, and to make one's words law, but this projection of the Primordial Ancestor clearly does not have this ability.
Therefore, the only way to suppress the enemy is by sheer force, which is equivalent to treating a mage like a warrior.
Although he was very strong, that was in comparison to the King Realm like Heavenly Revelation Emperor; to him, it was nothing special.
