Chapter 1553: Who Is the Ant?

p「Boom!!! 」

Endless energy seemed to twist space.

Obviously it was an intangible, untouchable spiritual energy pillar, yet at this moment it was as solid as substance, pouring down from heaven!

Under the overwhelming pressure radiating out, the three-headed high-ranking alien species facing Lin An felt that the man before them was no longer human, but energy, the embodiment of absolute will!

With the influx of massive spiritual energy, countless stones on the ground began to float upward as space trembled.

The earth shattered!

Countless spiderweb-like cracks suddenly spread from all directions.

Under such immense pressure, nearly at the level of life itself.

Everyone present felt a tremor rising from the depths of their souls.

Even a Fourth Rank escapee, at this moment, felt so intimidated they lost the ability to think, as if an instinct deep in their genes, leaving them frozen in place.

Under such terrifying pressure, they couldn't even muster the thought to flee!

Like the most cowardly seeing a prehistoric beast, all they could do was stay put and wait for death.

Cells screamed, souls trembled!

If this pressure hadn't deliberately avoided humans, just its release would have instantly crushed to death everyone below Third Rank on the spot!

Under the gathering of boundless energy, in an extremely short time it surpassed the total spiritual energy of all humanity!

No one knows what level of power this is; not even any Fourth Rank present can calculate just how much it is!

Almost in an instant, amid the dazed, shocked gazes of the escapees, Lin An's true body began to divinize at great speed — or rather, accurately speaking, it returned to the flesh of a true god!

As if merging with the grim reaper phantom behind him, within an extremely short time that phantom, kilometers in size, completely solidified and fused!

Each inhale and exhale echoed like the world itself.

At the peak of shock.

Gazing at Lin An before them, the escapee masquerading as "Heavenly Father" froze to death midair.

His outstretched right hand seemed frozen, trembling involuntarily in extreme shock.

What is this!? What is this!?

What on earth is this monster!!!?

At this very moment, the "Heavenly Father" who had just been looking down on Lin An a few seconds ago felt as if he were facing the entire world!

Under Lin An's gaze, he felt like a mouse locked on, unable to even maintain his reason!

What kind of god is he!?

No! He's just an ant! Always humble to the extreme, yet still seen by a god!

That ultimate divine body, so powerful that mere flesh ripples space, seemed to dominate his every thought!

In his eyes, everything else seemed to vanish, only Lin An looking down at him from above!

That cold, merciless gaze was like a sword piercing his soul!

It was like standing at the base of a ten-thousand-meter peak, looking up and seeing only its towering vastness!

Fear, trembling!

With Lin An as the center, the planet's very center of mass seemed to be inverted at this moment!

Light cannot escape! Spiritual energy cannot escape!

They..

Even less can they escape!

No..

No!!

"Ahhhh!!!!"

The body made of light instantly struggled violently.

"Stop him! Quickly stop him!! Take action!!!"

A shrill scream to the extreme.

Perhaps sensing his own death, the "Heavenly Father" desperately struggling against fear tried desperately to regain his composure.

He unleashed every ounce of power he could muster, like a madman attempting to attack Lin An.

Capture Lin An alive!? Seize him to make him a divine servant!?

No!

The thought was completely dismissed.

For the Heavenly Father, all he wants now is to live! To escape!

He doesn't want to die! He doesn't want to die!

He could feel that the endless torrent of spiritual energy was still pouring into Lin An's body, like an abyss never filled.

He dare not imagine how terrifying it will be when Lin An fully recovers his strength.

He only knows that they must act now, while this monster is recovering, perhaps giving them a sliver of hope to survive.

Faith Rules!

Heavenly Sound!

"Boom!!"

The rules of a high-ranking Fourth Rank suddenly erupted.

After sacrificing all his angels in one breath, he, whose codename is Heavenly Father, now directly unleashed his strongest rule, attacking Lin An with all his might.

Each angel is an embodiment of the rules he stores!

Theoretically capable of simultaneously erupting sevenfold rule attacks, he can briefly match a Fourth Stage Peak!

His face maniacal, instantly a heavenly father erupted beneath a resonant sound wave; his gaze pleading, he looked at his own launched attack.

This is his strongest attack!

It must succeed!!!

This strike!

Perhaps there is hope to stop this monster's recov...!!

"Courage commendable..."

However, fantasies are always beautiful.

Like a true divine spirit.

Lin An indifferently watched the heavenly father launch an attack at himself.

He let out a light chuckle; the spirit energy pillar originally infused into his body suddenly split into an energy, like a cannon, instantly blasting toward the heavenly father.

"Boom!!!"

Accompanied by an extremely dazzling light stream bursting forth.

In an instant, under the unimaginable energy level it carried, the heavenly father charging at him seemed to be vaporized, his whole body actually pierced through.

Spirit energy versus the light of rules.

Did not even last 0.01 second.

Facing an attack far beyond his limits, the heavenly father felt as if he were melting; the rules he prided himself on, before this absolutely crushing force, were just a joke!

No!!!

"Ahhhhh...!!"

Despair, fear, collapse.

Soul and body completely disintegrated at this moment.

In a sudden halt of a miserable scream, the heavenly father, originally resembling a divine spirit, instantly vaporized and disappeared.

One second later.

"Clang!"

A scepter with a section of arm fell to the ground.

Along with it fell the will to resist of all the fugitives present.

Everyone present was shocked.

Everything happened too fast, to the point that the two remaining high‑rank fugitives who had just mustered courage and prepared to attack the heavenly father together now stiffened in place again.

That figure frozen in mid‑air was like a ridiculous puppet, not daring to move a muscle.

Lips trembling, shuddering.

The holy son, acclaimed as second only to the heavenly father, looked in extreme shock at the arm on the ground.

"Heavenly Father... died?!"

The heavenly father, who was even a notch stronger than him, died?!

That was a fourth‑stage high‑level being... In their civilization, the few remaining high‑level beings were the strongest existence second only to the sleepers!

Yet such a powerful being of that level, in front of Lin An, couldn't even last a second!

Lin An is a fourth‑stage high‑level being?!

No!

This monster is absolutely a fourth‑stage peak!!

"Run!! Run!!"

Courage collapsed.

After regaining his senses, under a strong survival instinct, the holy son turned and fled without hesitation.

Facing such an enemy of this level, he couldn't muster the slightest thought of resistance!

Lin An at this moment actually reminded him of the fear during the civilization's destruction!

Damn it!

The Annihilators deceived them! That bastard never told the truth from start to finish!!

No time to curse in his heart.

Directly abandoning all his kin, the holy son at this moment fled toward the valley outside like a screaming hyena, gone mad.

However, he hadn't even flown a hundred meters.

A sound he never wanted to hear in his life suddenly rang from above his head.

Only saw that, at some unknown time, he was pulled into the judgment space.

Endless, inside a black space like a prison cage.

Lin An watched him with interest.

"Want to escape?"

A finger pressed down.

"Boom!"

Didn't even have time to beg for mercy.

In an instant, a burst of blood mist exploded, dyeing the darkness red.
