Chapter 1784

Lin An's heart jolted; even as his flesh suffered more damage under the surging pressure, to him the pain was nothing.

This time is enough for me to unleash three more strikes!!

Without hesitation, Lin An instantly poured all his mind into the power of cataclysm, even abandoning the most basic defense, and instantly unleashed a flurry of slashes.

In an instant, as three massive black sword auras slammed into the damaged Black Lock, the strikes that had been as feeble as a mayfly shaking a tree now each triggered violent tremors!

Seeing Lin An's mad act and his refusal to flee, even the most timid Lightbringer realized he had to intervene!

Although they didn't know what would happen if another strand of the Black Lock broke, a sixth sense warned them that continuing like this would surely bring something terribly horrible!

Whoosh—Boom!!

Soon, the Lightbringer who had rushed in with the Heart of the Storm both unleashed their psychic attacks at once, blasting toward Lin An.

Although the rules were suppressed, they dared not use them lightly. But sensing Lin An's flesh on the verge of collapse, they were confident they could stop this monster no matter what!

However, this was beyond the Lightbringer's expectation.

Seeing Lin An, despite facing both his and the Heart of the Storm's attacks, still did not dodge—as if he didn't care for his life—and continued to strike at the Black Lock again!

His madness left both of them stunned for a moment.

Won't you dodge!? Or do you realize you can't possibly flee anymore!?

Without giving the Lightbringer time to think, the next second Lin An, having entrusted his body completely to the Omniscience Domain, actually raised a shield with his backhand and bore all the damage head-on.

And under the Omniscience Domain's powerful calculation, the absorbed kinetic energy instantly turned into a recoil, suddenly propelling Lin An's body toward the sky nearer the Black Lock!

This crucial flash of light narrowly dodged the booming thunderlight!

Bang!!

Half his body pierced and turned to blood mist, Lin An seemed to feel no pain at all, and again used his remaining right hand to strike!

Beneath that mask, Lin An's eyes were filled with extreme calm.

Completely disregarding life or death, trusting the Omniscience Domain's calculation, he was certain of a sixty percent chance of victory!

Enough!

Give him a little more time, and he'll unleash two more strikes!

As long as he destroys the Black Lock's key structure, he'll have enough time to return to the exchange point and trigger the cataclysm!

Kill him! Kill him! Kill him quickly!!!

Don't let him keep destroying the Black Lock!!!

The rules fell into chaos, and the pressure kept rising.

The many Star-Destroyers rushing in from the rear were nearly driven mad.

Seeing the Lightbringer still holding back his strength, feeling victory was in his grasp, Hei Di even wanted to devour that fool alive!

Charge! Close combat!! Entangle Lin An—this monster couldn't possibly strike a second blow!

At the same time, feeling others' resentment toward him, the Lightbringer's face turned pale, and he couldn't help cursing quietly.

Completely ignoring Hei Di and the others' urgent urging, noticing that the Chimera Emperor would arrive soon, the Lightbringer's eyes flickered and he reversed direction, charging toward Lin An's rear.

I'll hold him back! You guys hurry up and attack!

With a fierce shout, the Lightbringer simply gave up.

Damn it! Saying it so nicely!

He didn't dare charge up to kill Lin An for his most important reason—he didn't believe Hei Di didn't know!

Saying it nicely to let him kill Lin An! But if he really tried to steal the kill of this 'Lin Emperor,' he'd be the second to die!

Seeing the Lightbringer's disgusting self-preserving choice, in an instant even the other Star-Destroyers were so angry they nearly spat blood on the spot.

Fortunately, the distance was short; even if the pressure kept increasing, they managed to rush nearby.

Without hesitation, led by the Chimera Emperor, eleven Star-Destroyers all unleashed their psychic reserves, like a volley of light cannons, suddenly blasting toward Lin An.

He was about to unleash his final strike.

High above, Lin An's eyes showed the survival probability number plummeting wildly.

In an extremely short time it dropped from sixty percent to less than one!

Is it too late...

Without the ability to recover points, and losing massive blood, Lin An's face turned pale, feeling he had already reached his limit.

Although these Star-Destroyers, under Hei Di's mistaken guidance, never dared to use rule-based attacks on him.

But faced with such a massive psychic assault, even if he strained to unleash this strike, he had little hope of escaping back to the exchange point.

Retreat?

If he skips this strike, perhaps Hei Di and the others' breakthrough speed isn't that fast, and he could still have time to trigger the cataclysm.

Of course, perhaps it might not be enough, or perhaps at the final moment it would just be this tiny strike missing.

At this life-and-death juncture, Lin An grew even calmer.

In an instant, facing the life-and-death choice, a wisp of silver-red flame suddenly blazed fiercely across his broken body.

No.

No retreat!

Luck cannot forever favor him!

Flame of Time!

Reverse! Burn the past!!

He has no future left, so he will burn his past memories to exchange for a new future!

Boom!!

In the vast burst of brilliant light, Lin An's final sword in his hand, now like darkness beneath the blazing sun, suddenly slashed toward the sky.

Crack!

Within 0.001 seconds, in the astonished gazes of Hei Di and the others, a visible crack appeared on the Black Lock.

At the same moment, Lin An, who had burst out of the spiritual energy storm, was like a blazing fire with broken wings, madly rushing toward the exchange point.

"Stop him!! Quickly stop him!!"

There was no time left to ponder why Lin An had slashed out this crack as if gambling his life.

Upon instantly regaining his senses, Hei Di, the quickest to react, roared angrily at the Radiant Lord covering the rear. Although it seemed Lin An could not escape, at this speed they would catch up to him in the next second.

But no matter what, he did not want any further mishaps to occur.

At the same moment, the Radiant Lord, who had thought he had nothing to do with this, saw his expression change again.

Seeing Lin An once again breaking through toward him, he could not help but laugh bitterly from extreme anger, and his heart grew even more ruthless!

Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!

Do you really think he wouldn't dare?!

He could feel that Lin An was now at the end of his tether; if he still had any trump cards, he would surely have used them. That near-dead vitality gave him the feeling that a single breath could blow Lin An to death.

But just as the Radiant Lord grew ruthless in his heart and was about to directly unleash spiritual energy to strike Lin An from above,

A cold, demon-like voice suddenly rang out in his mind.

"You dare kill me?!"

"Trash! You have no right to kill me! If you kill me, you'll die too!"

Hearing that, he froze for a moment.

In his fury, the Radiant Lord instantly realized that Lin An was threatening him!

Yet faced with such mockery, even a humiliating threat, his spiritual energy actually came to a halt!

The reason was simple.

He knew Lin An was telling the truth! Given Lin An's current injuries, if he made a move, he would kill this guy!

And it was just that brief moment of hesitation.

"Whoosh—boom"

0.1 seconds later, Lin An, who had plummeted to the ground like a meteor and rushed toward the exchange point, now absurdly brushed past him.

Their eyes met, and it felt as if he had personally let go of the last hope.

"I fuck your mother!! Radiant Lord!!"

One second later, watching Lin An charge into the exchange point, Hei Di, furious to the extreme, seemed to no longer care about his own status and cursed wildly.

"Bang!!"

He was slammed hard into the exchange point.

Immediately after closing the stone door, Lin An, as if unable to restrain his excitement any longer, frantically began communicating with the Black Lock.

Success! It worked!

Perhaps Hei Di and the others didn't know what he was trying to do, but he knew that the moment he slashed that sword and the moment he rushed into the exchange point, the outcome was already decided!

Detonate the Black Lock! Trigger the cataclysm! Let that star destroy the entire world!

In his madness, even Lin An's eyes grew somewhat ferocious.

No one knew how many times he had danced on the edge of death.

At this very moment, smelling the fresh, sweet scent of blood within the exchange point, he felt a peace he had never known before.

Watching the stone door continually tremble, releasing waves of energy.

Lin An knew this was Hei Di and the others breaking down the door!

Vaguely, he could even hear the roars of Hei Di and the others.

Under the combined attack of thirteen Star-Destroying Level experts, even the exchange point itself trembled slightly.

It's a pity.

It's too late.

Moreover,

Feeling the attack, which was not particularly strong, and even the stone door could hold out for a long time.

Lin An couldn't help but let out a cold chuckle.

It seemed that Hei Di and the others still didn't know why he was "hiding" here.

"Hum"

Thick black light flared up again; Lin An lifted his head, his eyes seeming able to pierce the cold walls as he gazed toward the sky.

"Begin the cataclysm!"
