Chapter 1242: Complete Overwhelming Suppression! The First Dao Master Appears!

In the Flame Empire, because that star was truly enormous, and because the Continent of Gods was not spherical but flat.

Thus, billions of people in the central and western provinces of the Flame Empire gazed upon this star.

The air quality on the Continent of Gods was impeccable; there was no smog or excessive dust, and visibility was excellent.

Even from great distances, one could see the massive star hovering above the Flame Empire!

As for the battle above the imperial capital, those far away could not see it.

Precisely because they could not see the battle above the capital, everyone stared at the star, discussing it, wondering what it was.

This star instilled fear in many of the Flame Empire's citizens.

But before their fear could even take root, all the people saw the massive star suddenly burst forth in flames!

Flames surged from all directions, completely engulfing the star!

Turning the entire star into a colossal fireball!

Those too far away naturally could not hear the earth-shattering roar of the Bao Lie Yan's explosion!

But this did nothing to lessen the shock in their hearts!

The immense star was swallowed by flames in an instant!

Completely transformed into a burning star!

This star, no matter what threats it carried, could no longer pose any threat to the Flame Empire at this moment!

And at the sight of these flames, countless citizens of the Flame Empire erupted in cheers!

Flames!

They were subjects of the Flame Empire!

Who else but their god could unleash such terrifying flames to burn up an invading star?

In an instant, across the central and western provinces of the Flame Empire, after their cheers, countless citizens fell to their knees, offering their most devout faith and fervent praise to their god, the great and powerful Lord of Flames!

Thus, a wondrous scene emerged within the Flame Empire.

Hymns praising the Lord of Flames rang out in countless cities across the central and western provinces.

In each city, tens of thousands of voices merged street by street, finally coalescing into a hymn echoing across the city's sky; every face beamed with joy as they sang with the most passionate language, extolling the Lord of Flames' might.

Even in some rural towns, hundreds or thousands of citizens spontaneously began singing hymns!

Such a scene was unimaginable in the realms of other gods!

Even in the realm of Venerable Tianlan, a veteran Zunzhu, such a heart-stopping spectacle was rare.

"No… no… no!"

The explosion of that star also stunned every warrior emerging from within it!

In the sky, the Grand Archbishop of the Star Realm cried out in agony!

This sight struck him too hard!

"Aaaah, I will utterly annihilate your Flame Empire!"

The Grand Archbishop roared.

"Damn it, my realm!"

In the Heavenly Realm, the Dao Master nearly exploded with rage!

He had never imagined the Lord of Flames possessed such a devastating weapon!

One strike—destroyed a star!

In the Heavenly Realm, such a thing was nothing; a Fourth Rank Zunzhu could easily obliterate a massive fragment of a star with one blow.

Even with specialized reinforcement, his Star Realm could not withstand the assault of a Fourth Rank Zunzhu.

But this was the Continent of Gods, not the Heavenly Realm!

On the Continent of Gods, even a Saint Realm at its peak Fourth Rank, or one who briefly ascended to Fifth Rank, could not destroy his Star Realm with a single strike!

Even if a god incarnated and descended with divine power, it would be impossible.

The laws of the Continent of Gods imposed comprehensive suppression.

The stronger the being, the greater the suppression.

Divine power infused with Dao could not be brought down at all.

To bring down Fourth Rank divine power required immense effort, and even then, its power on the Continent of Gods was suppressed to less than one-thousandth of its strength in the Heavenly Realm.

Moreover, even after suppression, there was no suitable divine body to wield this power, further diminishing its effectiveness.

Thus, on the Continent of Gods, destroying a star with a single strike was nearly impossible!

Such a massive star!

Even with Lin Yan's pre-transmigration weapons—nuclear bombs—hundreds dropped in would still fail to destroy it.

In fact, the full-power attack of a Saint Realm was already comparable to nuclear weapons—more agile, enduring, and harder to defend against, merely lacking aftereffects like radiation.

But once Saint Realm power was involved, the lingering damage became even more unbearable.

Otherwise, why would the Star Realm dare so boldly to position its star directly above the Flame Empire?

They intended precisely this method to exert overwhelming deterrence against the Flame Empire!

This was their confidence!

Yet who knew that Meng Ying possessed Bao Lie Yan!

A thousand powerful magicians, plus Meng Ying, chanting together, summoned a Bao Lie Yan over ten thousand meters in volume, its energy points numbering in quantities too immense to fathom.

For Lin Yan's current energy points, this amount was child's play.
