Goku was the first to react. His golden aura surged instantly, his hair turned from black to dark blue, and he fully unleashed his Super Saiyan God form!
He rapidly gathered energy at his waist, and a dazzling blue energy wave formed in his palms, distorting the surrounding air.
"Take this!" He suddenly unleashed the energy wave, the blue energy wave shooting towards the giant black hand like a shooting star.
As a result, the energy wave disintegrated inch by inch as soon as it touched the palm, without causing any damage whatsoever.
"Huh!?" Goku was dumbfounded when his attack failed.
Seeing himself in dire straits, Shi Hao unleashed the Kunpeng Precious Technique. With a wave of his hand, the phantoms of "Kun" and "Peng" appeared, displaying a powerful force of Yin and Yang. The two, carrying the force of Shi Hao's fist, slammed towards his palm.
Unfortunately, Shi Hao's cultivation level was too low, and his power was insufficient to challenge the rules. In the end, just like Goku's move, he only slightly slowed down the speed at which his palm descended.
Seeing that their attacks were ineffective, Lin Yu separated a wisp of golden rule and attached it to them.
Seeing this, the four unleashed their strongest attacks once again. Goku even used the Kaio-ken, while Shi Hao gathered the divine light within his body and unleashed the Kunpeng Precious Technique, the Grass Character Sword Technique, and all its killing moves.
Su Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, gripped the sword with both hands, and poured all her strength into the blade. The golden light patterns on the broadsword shone brightly, and even subtle, regular patterns could be seen flowing along the blade.
Even though Xiao Yan's internal Dou Qi had not yet recovered, he still used all his strength to unleash the Four-Colored Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus.
Four attacks, imbued with golden rules, simultaneously crashed into the giant black hand, "Boom--!"
A deafening roar erupted, and a blinding light instantly engulfed the entire ruined world, even temporarily obscuring the giant eye in the sky.
Lin Yu desperately maintained the golden barrier, watching the collision in mid-air with his heart in his throat. If he couldn't win this battle, he would have no choice but to run away.
In the intense light, cracks began to appear on the fingers of the giant black hand, and the chains of rules clicked loudly, seemingly on the verge of breaking at any moment.
But at that moment, the giant eye in the sky lit up again, its pupils overflowing with even more intense malice, and the power of the black giant hand surged once more.
This small world has become precarious amidst these violent shockwaves.
Spatial rifts can be seen everywhere; they are no longer able to heal themselves.
But the power of the eye in the sky continued to increase, and in the end, it forcefully crushed everyone's combined attack.
Then it accelerated instantly, grabbing at the group with unparalleled power.
"Damn! They ran away! This thing's rules are too strong!" Lin Yu stopped the others who wanted to try, checked himself, and felt that he had recovered almost completely.
Lin Yu's Primordial Spirit instantly expanded, breaking through the barrier of the small world and spreading wildly outwards.
He randomly selected a relatively safe location and, without the slightest hesitation, unleashed all his escape techniques at once.
The Kunpeng Precious Technique was activated, and the phantom images of Kun and Peng appeared behind him.
The technique of Shrinking the Earth into an Inch allowed the space beneath one's feet to be infinitely folded. The Divine Movement Talisman transformed into a golden light and merged into the body.
The escape techniques from the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiend Arts, such as "Earth Travel" and "Wind Riding," were activated simultaneously, transforming the figures into a wisp of wind, allowing them to slip away quietly through the cracks in the world.
In an instant, the five figures vanished without a trace from the crumbling ruins of that small world.
The instant Lin Yu and his companions left, the giant hand of law slammed down, causing the entire eerie campus to rumble and the sky to tear apart.
Where the giant hand fell, space completely collapsed, forming a pitch-black void that devoured everything, mercilessly swallowing even light, and the entire eerie campus crumbled layer by layer.
On the other side
When Lin Yu and his group of five were back on solid ground, they found themselves on an ordinary city street within the Dragon Nation.
"Phew--" Lin Yu let out a long breath, his legs went weak, and he almost lost his balance.
The feeling of relief at surviving the ordeal and the exhaustion from overdrawing his Primordial Spirit energy surged into his heart at the same time, making him feel somewhat weak.
In that instant, he led a group of people across tens of thousands of kilometers, including a small world. This was the first time he had ever led a group of people on such a long journey.
Not to mention that he had already exhausted his resources by creating the rules, so the fact that they were able to escape is truly a stroke of luck.
A passerby holding a freshly bought Coke stared blankly at the five people who had suddenly appeared before him.
He paused for three seconds, looked down at the cola in his hand, then looked up at the five ragged, travel-worn men. His expression was complex, as if he were contemplating life. "Did I... drink fake alcohol?"
"You..." He hadn't finished speaking.
Lin Yu glanced at him, and without saying a word, snatched the unopened bottle of cola from his hand.
"Bang!"
The tab was pulled open, and bubbles gushed out instantly. Lin Yu tilted his head back and took a big gulp; the icy liquid flowed down his throat, finally calming his wildly beating heart a little.
"Phew... calm down!" It's been a long time since I've had this carbonated drink. After the tension and excitement, a sip really refreshes me.
Lin Yu said with lingering fear, "It was so close... just a hair's breadth away, and none of us would have made it."
When Lin Yu came to his senses and looked at the small world again, he found that it no longer existed, and even the giant eye had vanished without a trace.
Goku, Xiao Yan, Shi Hao, and Su Xiaoxiao each found a place to sit down, panting heavily.
As the giant hand pressed down, the pressure increased so much that the group almost lost their footing.
"What exactly is that thing?" Su Xiaoxiao gripped the large sword, her voice still trembling slightly. "Its power... is too strong."
"He should be one of the sources that caused the strange resurgence of your world." Lin Yu's eyes were solemn.
Su Xiaoxiao's world is not simple either. He discovered that the giant hand only dared to appear in those strange, invading small worlds; otherwise, it should have caught up by now.
But He left without a sound.
That means there's something in the real world that's also constraining Him.
Goku clenched his fist, golden flames flashing around him in an instant. "I'll find a chance to fight it again!"
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao looked at Goku in horror. "Don't go back! Don't let him destroy my world!"
"Don't worry, Goku can't break them, because he'll be erased before he even gets to those rules," Lin Yu reminded him, seeing that Goku was eager to try.
"Hehe, then Lin Yu, just lend me that golden thing of yours." Goku was clever; although he couldn't hit it, Lin Yu's rules allowed him to.
Before Lin Yu could even speak, Su Xiaoxiao had already jumped up.
"Get lost! If you attract that monster again, you'll be responsible!" Su Xiaoxiao kicked Goku, sternly stopping his suicide attempt.
