Chapter 1720: Falling Stars 14

It's normal that the Chimera Emperor doesn't understand.

That stupid dragon relies on having four kinds of talent and, in battle, doesn't care about so-called techniques or calculations at all.

Thus, what unfolds before the Chimera Emperor's eyes looks like a movie—so fake it couldn't be faker.

Under Lin An's unfathomable battle awareness, everyone's every move seems to have been anticipated.

Numerous Fifth Stage fighters 'attack' each other; though they are clearly facing a siege of hundreds of Fifth Stage, at this moment it turns into self‑slaughter. Each of Lin An's dodges and uses of force cause another batch of Fifth Stage to die inexplicably at their own side's hands.

And Lin An's every acceleration and change of direction after receiving an attack is like toying with them, using force against force.

Not only that.

Lin An's constantly weakening yet reviving vitality is like a candle that could go out at any moment, repeatedly teetering on the edge of life and death.

This, in Hei Di's eyes, is terrifying to the extreme!

What, you don't need any power at all!? This is just suppressing your own strength to the lowest and then enjoying death!?

No wonder Hei Di is fantasizing like this, feeling afraid.

He has seen some lunatics before.

Especially those top-tier Fifth Stage fighters, many of whom are battle maniacs who enjoy fighting to the death.

And these monsters, when they possess absolutely overwhelming power, will use their top‑tier battle consciousness to slaughter the weak, solely to pursue the limit, to pursue the ultimate pleasure that lies on the razor's edge of life and death.

Therefore, in Hei Di's view, Lin An, who can control the whole battlefield and massacre everyone, is undoubtedly this kind of lunatic!

Mistaken!! My judgment was all mistaken...

The terror of a Star-Shattering Level is beyond what I could guess! It can't be probed—no matter how weak this person is, I could never probe it!

Forcing himself to stay calm, Hei Di strained to control his trembling hands and, without hesitation, retreated to the edge of the battlefield.

He no longer dared to watch, nor did he dare to make any other plans!

In his view, Lin An's battle before him is fundamentally a warning to him, a mockery of them!

So what if his power is suppressed?

He Lin An has a problem—so what!?

No rules needed—this monster is terrifyingly strong just the same!

Hei Di!?

What's wrong with you!? What are we going to do next!?

At the same time, seeing Hei Di suddenly blast back, the Chimera Emperor also seemed to realize the seriousness of the problem.

Their probe seems to have failed.

It's just that, under Hei Di's pretentiously profound command, for a moment the Chimera Emperor didn't know what to do.

Run away!? Or play dead!?

Once Lin An finishes over there, even with your toes you can tell this teleport's landing point is obviously wrong!

If Lin An flies into a rage, will we die!?

But if we run away, where can we run to!?

"Don't move! Do nothing!"

"Retreat! Quickly retreat and play dead! Don't keep sending mental transmissions!"

"He's doing this to warn us!"

"He might not expose us!"

"We still have use!!!"

In a panic, Hei Di desperately suppressed his fear and racked his brain trying to guess Lin An's intent.

He couldn't care how chaotic his own words were; he couldn't let that stupid dragon make another mistake!

"Run!!"

"Run fast!! Stop attacking!! Just stop!!"

The harder they fight, the faster they die.

The battle has reached the fourth second.

Around Lin An as the center, corpses float like scattered debris in midair.

Unable to resist Lin An's slaughter, countless Fifth Stage fighters scatter in utter collapse.

Even though they haven't actually lost many people, and even though Lin An hasn't shown any terrifying martial power.

But there's nothing to be done.

Some things are more despairing than pure strength.

Unlike the third‑person view of Hei Di and others that can see the whole battlefield,

facing Lin An directly, they feel as if they're fighting air, fighting themselves.

Every step is seen through.

Their numerical advantage is utterly meaningless; Lin An always appears where they least expect.

They are almost vomiting blood.

Every attack, once predicted and rendered ineffective, makes them feel nauseous, wanting to vomit.

Though the rules they unleash in desperation gather enough power to tear space, making even a Star‑Destroying Level dare not face the edge,

against Lin An they are like fireworks—each strike is precisely predicted, and they may even accidentally kill their own side.

And those silver‑filled eyes behind the mask seem to see through their souls, knowing everything about them.

This fear of having their souls seen through is enough to drive anyone mad.

It's hard to imagine what that feeling is like.

Their rules feel as if they no longer belong to them.

Each activation of the rule helps Lin An kill the next person better, and every fifth-stage body is like a shield for this monster, used to block attacks from their own side.

Clearly, after being hit, Lin An shows a weakness he shouldn't have, as if mortally wounded and dying.

But in the blink of an eye he returns to full health and, with a casual sword thrust, pierces their heads.

The defensive rule seems to not exist at all.

Every fifth-stage killed by Lin An, at the moment of death, has only one thought in mind.

That is, how does Lin An know exactly what their rule is? Which direction will they dodge?

Almost divine, close to the truth.

Unable to comprehend what is happening, the fifth-stage fugitives who are essentially a rabble all have their psychological defenses completely shattered.

In their eyes, this Shatter Star Level powerhouse is merely toying with and slaughtering them.

Clearly strong enough to treat them like infants in a massacre, yet he refuses to waste any strength, giving them hope only to let them die.

As if he enjoys the pleasure of their desperate struggle in despair.

However, fleeing is useless.

When the battle reached the sixth second.

A War Star Level who was taking advantage of Lin An's slaughter in another direction tried to escape the Omniscient Domain, when suddenly his vision went dark; after regaining consciousness, he was shocked to discover that Lin An had been bumped by another fifth-stage's rule and appeared right before him.

With a puff, at the moment his soul was frozen, Lin An took his life with a single sword.

In his final glance before death, he saw another War Star Level fearfully looking at his own hands, then turning to flee.

Yes.

Within the Omniscient Domain, all their actions were foreknown.

At the moment he wanted to flee, his death was already destined.

Another fifth-stage unwilling to die used his own space-like rule, attempting to reverse Lin An's movement.

And it was precisely this rule that sent Lin An to appear before him.
