Chapter 157: The Heavenly Dao Does Not Allow the Existence of Someone This Overpowered!

Seeing this, the Holy Emperor could not immediately discern what had happened to Lin Potian, his Silver Pupil swirling as he tried his utmost to identify it.

But Lin Potian's state was already extremely poor; the light around his body had nearly extinguished, and he seemed to be placed within a deep, profound void, surrounded by endless darkness and silence...

In the darkness, countless twisted shadows danced around him, roaring like fierce ghosts, attempting to devour his last remaining sanity!

"Don't even think about obliterating me!"

Lin Potian gritted his teeth, hands clenched into fists, as the residual Immortal Spirit Qi and Godly Light within his body were awakened, beginning to flow weakly through his meridians!

Then, at this moment of life and death, the nearly extinguished light within Lin Potian's body suddenly erupted with unprecedented brightness!

The Immortal Spirit Qi and Godly Light, after experiencing countless collisions and tearing, actually began to slowly fuse together in a strange rhythm!

During the slow fusion process, Lin Potian seemed to see a long river interwoven with silver and gold surging endlessly within his body; every droplet of water in the river contained world-destroying power!

This newborn power roamed through his meridians, and wherever it passed, the originally shattered meridians were gently repaired, and his withered flesh also radiated vibrant vitality...

That strange force did not strike at this moment, as if everything just now had been a narrow escape. Having successfully achieved the initial fusion of Immortal and Godly powers, Lin Potian was surrounded by dazzling light, like a rising sun, with brilliance constantly overflowing from his body, illuminating every inch of the surrounding space. He slowly raised his hand, golden and silver light leaping at his fingertips.

Yet, despite succeeding so easily, Lin Potian felt heavy at heart, harboring an ominous premonition, and thought to himself: "I fear that strange force will strike again..."

The moment Lin Potian thought this, the sky suddenly dimmed, clouds gathered, and lightning flashed and thundered!

An evil aura seeped out from the void, carrying endless chill, instantly devouring the light around Lin Potian's body!

Lin Potian looked up at the horizon and saw a pitch-black crack slowly split open, from which a huge, withered hand reached out, its nails flashing with cold light like sharp blades!

Moreover, the power of this withered giant hand and the aura of the strange force that had previously sprouted within his body were exactly the same!

At the same time this giant hand appeared, the Holy Emperor's expression became extremely ugly; he knew what this thing was and shouted in a deep voice toward Lin Potian: "Young Master, this is your Dao Heart Inner Demon. By forcibly fusing the two, you have violated the rules. The Heavenly Dao does not allow the existence of someone as overpowered as you, and has sent down this giant hand to destroy you!"

He then sighed and spoke helplessly: "This inner demon is born from within your body; the one who tied the bell must untie it. I cannot take action against it for you, otherwise, you will be annihilated along with it. You must resist and obliterate it yourself!"

Lin Potian nodded slightly, his expression grave as he said: "Alright, I understand."

Boom!

Subsequently, that withered giant hand pierced through the void, carrying world-destroying power, and headed straight for Lin Potian's heart meridian!

Lin Potian retreated violently, dodging the first strike of the withered giant hand. The giant hand slapped the void, causing the very space to tremble and cracks to scatter!

"Take my punch!"

Lin Potian's gaze was resolute, the golden and silver interwoven power within him boiling, far more formidable than before the fusion!

His fist wind was like a dragon, carrying the roar of the fused Immortal and Godly powers interwoven with the lightning in the sky, as he threw a punch!

But it did not injure the giant hand in the slightest; instead, he was shaken by the air wave emitted by the giant hand, causing his blood to churn!

"What? It's actually this powerful!"

Lin Potian's pupils constricted, and he roared, the golden and silver light within him suddenly intensifying, transforming into a furious divine dragon, clashing fiercely with the withered giant hand in the air!

In a short time, there were a million exchanges of blows. Every time fists and feet met, it was accompanied by deafening roars, and intense energy fluctuations permeated the surroundings!

The Holy Emperor had long since opened a barrier to prevent being spied upon or discovered from the outside.

Swish, swish, swish—!

The battle continued. Lin Potian's figure was agile, sometimes leaping high into the sky to strike down with the force of a thunderbolt, and sometimes sprinting close to the ground to launch surprise attacks from strange angles!

However, the withered giant hand was as elusive as a ghost, every swing carrying destructive power, causing Lin Potian to suffer setback after setback!

Suddenly, Lin Potian's figure stopped abruptly, gathering all his strength in mid-air, golden and silver light converging on his fists, as bright and dazzling as the sun and moon!

"Supreme Fist!"

Lin Potian let out a low roar, unleashing his newly self-created divine ability. His fists slammed into the withered giant hand, the friction between the fist wind and the air producing a sharp whistling sound, and the space itself was torn apart by this strike!

The withered giant hand did not speak, only blindly countering. The two collided, erupting with blinding light, energy fluctuations spreading like a tidal wave to the surroundings, dust flying and gravel scattering on the ground!

Bang!

"Cough, cough..., so strong!"

Lin Potian was shaken until his figure staggered, then he flew backward, a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

"But if this is all the extent of it, it's not enough!"

He immediately stood up again, eyes wide with rage, golden and silver flames burning on his back. His speed suddenly became unimaginably fast, his figure turning into a streak of light as he charged fiercely at the withered giant hand!

"Supreme One-Character Slash!"

In the air, Lin Potian crossed his hands, gathering all his strength, and suddenly unleashed a beam of golden and silver light at the giant hand!

Boom!

One finger of the giant hand was visibly severed. After a moment of stagnation, it then grabbed toward Lin Potian in anger!

"Supreme Net!"

Lin Potian was completely unafraid, his figure surging up like a meteor streaking across the night sky, the golden and silver light weaving into a net, tightly binding the giant hand. The giant hand struggled, actually emitting a shrill, mournful cry!

Patter, patter...

"Hoo, hoo..."

Lin Potian's eyes were wide open, gasping for breath, sweat sliding down his cheeks and dripping into the air, instantly evaporating. But he dared not waste this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and roared:

"Supreme Sword!"

Then his hands suddenly clapped together, the golden and silver light condensing into a brilliant sword of light, the tip pointing straight at the core of the giant hand!

The sword of light tore through the void, carrying peerless might, and slashed fiercely at the giant hand!

The giant hand trembled violently in an instant, fine cracks appearing on its surface, as if an ancient piece of pottery were on the verge of shattering under a heavy blow!

"Break for me!"

Lin Potian's figure rotated with the swing of the sword of light. In the storm of interwoven golden and silver light, the space seemed unable to withstand the impact of this power, beginning to collapse in large swaths, forming a pitch-black vortex that devoured everything around it, and then the sword of light slashed down violently...

Vowing to completely sever this inner demon!
