Chapter 1794

Uncontrollable panic.

Uncontrollable panic.

Feeling the immense pressure bursting from the crack, the Void Insect Mother found it hard to breathe, her legs went weak and she nearly knelt on the ground.

Feeling the immense pressure bursting from the crack, the Void Insect Mother found it hard to breathe, her legs went weak and she nearly knelt on the ground.

Like bearing a weight of ten thousand tonnes! Not just physical, but also mental!

Translation: "As if bearing a weight of ten thousand tons! Not just physical, but mental too!" Keep exclamation.

Unimaginable!

Translation: "Unimaginable!"

Under the effect of the collapsing superstar, the external gravity already rivals the surface of a red dwarf, enough to crush a planet into an endless hell.

Under the effect of the collapsing superstar, the external gravity already rivals the surface of a red dwarf, enough to crush a planet into an endless hell.

Compared to the pressure outside, those inside the door are practically in paradise!

Translation: "Compared to the pressure outside the door, those inside were practically in paradise!"

(If the door breaks, even if I'm not crushed to death, I'll be instantly killed by Black Emperor and the others!!)

Translation: "(If the door breaks, even if I'm not crushed to death, I'll be instantly killed by Hei Di and the others!!)" Keep double exclamation.

(The door must not break! The door absolutely must not break!)

Translation: "(The door must not break! The door absolutely must not break!)"

Only by experiencing it oneself can one know how terrifying it is! At this moment, the Void Empress suddenly realized why these star‑destroyers were forced to self‑destruct.

Translation: "Only by experiencing it oneself can one know how terrifying it is! At this moment, the Void Empress suddenly realized why those star destroyers were forced to self-destruct!"

It's utterly agonizing! The disaster Lin An caused is simply crushing people alive into meat paste.

Translation: "It's truly too painful! The disaster caused by Lin An is literally crushing people alive into mud!"

In this desperate, cruel death to the extreme, even she would choose to self‑destruct.

Translation: "Under such a desperate, cruel death to the extreme, even she would choose to self-destruct!"

Deeply aware that she herself is the biggest "traitor," the Void Insect Mother's face turned deathly pale, completely losing her former composure.

Translation: "Knowing full well she was the biggest 'traitor', the Void Insect Mother's face turned deathly pale, completely losing her former composure."

She could imagine how strong the hatred of Black Emperor and the others would be toward her.

Translation: "She could imagine how strong the hatred of Hei Di and the others toward her would be!"

To put it bluntly, the originally splendid situation has turned into this, all thanks to her.

Translation: "Frankly speaking, the originally favorable situation has turned out like this, all thanks to her!"

「Lin An! Lin An! Quick.. quick!!! 」

「Lin An! Lin An! Quick.. quick!!! 」

"Boom!!"

"Boom!!"

Before the Void Insect Mother could even shout, in an instant the rule‑storm of another self‑explosion surged violently from the crack.

Translation: "Without waiting for the Void Insect Mother's shout, in an instant the rule storm of another self-destruction surged forth from the crack."

The blue water‑element rule turned into a sharp shockwave; although it seemed like nothing but a single thrust, at this moment it acted like a laser, instantly slicing the stone door.

Translation: "The blue water-element rule turned into a sharp shockwave; although it seemed like nothing but a single ray shooting in, at this moment it acted like a laser, instantly slicing the stone gate."

With a crack, the stone door's original hair‑thin fissure expanded to the size of a finger.

Translation: "With a crack, the stone gate, which originally had a hair-thin fissure, expanded to the size of a finger."

Under the sudden surge of pressure and impact, the Void Insect Mother didn't even have time to let out a wail before being utterly shattered without any defense.

Translation: "Under the sudden surge of pressure and impact, the Void Insect Mother didn't even have time to utter a scream before being shattered outright, utterly unprepared."

Blood mist exploded!

Translation: "Blood mist exploded!"

In the blink of an eye, the Void Insect Mother burst into a cloud of blood mist that sprayed onto Lin An's face.

Translation: "In the blink of an eye, the Void Insect Mother burst into a cloud of blood mist that sprayed onto Lin An's face!"

Warm, sweet‑smelling.

Translation: "Warm, fishy-sweet."

In an extremely short time, the Void Insect Mother, who had thought she could rest easy within the spatial rift, suddenly changed expression dramatically.

Translation: "In an extremely short time, the Void Insect Mother, who had thought she could rest easy within the spatial rift, suddenly changed expression."

Just like a chain reaction, as the rule's chaotic effect poured in through the crack, the spatial layer she occupied began to tremble, as if trying to squeeze her out, starting to distort.

Translation: "Like a chain reaction, as the chaotic effect of the rules surged in through the crack, the spatial layer she was in began to tremble, as if trying to squeeze her out, starting to deform."

The immense pain from the spatial distortion made her involuntarily let out a muffled groan.

Translation: "The immense pain from the spatial distortion instantly made her involuntarily let out a muffled groan."

Unable to stay any longer, she instinctively tried to rush out.

Translation: "She dared not stay and could not stay any longer; subconsciously she wanted to rush out."

She dared not let the door break, nor let Lin An stay alone at the exchange point.

Translation: "She dared not let the door break, and even more so did not dare let Lin An stay alone at the exchange point!"

At the same time, seeing the Insect Mother rush out from the spatial interlayer, Lin An seemed not to care whether the door broke; his heart instead stirred.

Translation: "At the same time, seeing the Void Insect Mother rush out from the spatial layer, Lin An seemed not to care whether the door broke; instead, his heart stirred!"

Opportunity!

Translation: "Opportunity!"

The door cannot be broken!

Translation: "The door cannot be broken!"

But forcing this worm out is a good thing!

Translation: "But forcing this insect out is a good thing!"

Moreover…

Translation: "Not only that.."

Watching the Insect Mother emerge, flustered and both wanting to block the door and "grab" himself, a fleeting hint of ruthlessness flashed in Lin An's eyes.

Translation: "Watching the Insect Mother emerge, in his panic he both wanted to block the door and to 'seize' himself; a fleeting hint of ruthlessness flashed in Lin An's eyes, barely perceptible."

Without hesitation, taking advantage of the Insect Mother's distraction, Lin An suddenly turned and charged straight toward the exchange point.

Translation: "Without hesitation, taking advantage of the Insect Mother's momentary distraction, Lin An suddenly turned and rushed straight toward the exchange point."

「Insect Mother! Go block the door! Infuse it with your rule power! 」

Translation: "\"Insect Mother! Go block the door! Infuse it with your rule power! \"" Keep quotes.

「I'll go restore my strength and reinforce the stone door! 」

Translation: "\"I'll go restore my strength and reinforce the stone gate! \"" Keep quotes.

「Boom! 」

Translation: "\"Boom! \"" Keep quotes.

A sonic boom exploded in the air, like a blade storm appearing out of nowhere.

Translation: "A sonic boom exploded in the air, appearing out of nowhere like a blade storm."

Though it was only a dozen meters, Lin An gritted his teeth, willing to tear his own flesh to accelerate! His bodily speed burst to the limit, making him seem like a streak of light that, in an instant, shot to the point beneath the exchange point and aimed at the light sphere.

Translation: "Just a short distance of over ten meters! Lin An actually accelerated, risking his flesh being torn apart! With his bodily speed pushed to the limit, he became like a stream of light, in an extremely short time rushing to the point beneath the exchange point and aiming at the light sphere."

This scene fell before the Void Empress's eyes, startling her into instinctively wanting to intervene.

Translation: "This scene fell into the Void Empress's eyes, instantly startling her into wanting to intercept it."

But just as she turned, the attacks from Black Emperor and the others struck again, forcing her to turn back and rush toward the stone door.

Translation: "But as soon as she turned, the attack from Hei Di and the others descended again, forcing her to turn back and rush toward the stone gate!"

Both sides are threats, yet Black Emperor's side is clearly the greater danger.

Translation: "Both sides are threats! But Hei Di's side is obviously greater!"

The door can be repaired! Let her repair it!?

Translation: "The door can be repaired! Let her repair it!?"

Damn it! Damn it!!

Translation: "Damn it! Damn it!!"

Furious curses filled her heart!

Translation: "She cursed endlessly in her heart!"

Forced to fall back, the Void Insect Mother drew a deep breath, unaware that this was exactly Lin An's scheme to pressure her.

Translation: "Forced to retreat, the Void Insect Mother took a deep breath, unaware that this was Lin An seizing the opportunity to press her!"

If she doesn't block the door, everyone dies; if she does, Lin An can seize the chance to directly exchange for an item to counter her.

Translation: "If she doesn't block the door, everyone will die; if she does, Lin An can seize this chance to directly exchange for props to counter her!"

At least a thousand points—she couldn't even imagine what Lin An could exchange for!!

Translation: "At least nearly a thousand points—she couldn't even imagine what Lin An could exchange for!!"

The favorable situation instantly reversed; even the Void Empress herself never imagined that this sole opportunity would be seized by that damned Lin An.

Translation: "The favorable situation instantly reversed; even the Void Empress herself hadn't expected that this sole opportunity would be seized by that damned Lin An!"

No matter how unwilling she may be, at this moment she can only choose to first block the door and then speak.

Translation: "However, no matter how unwilling she was, at this moment she could only choose to first block the door and then talk!"

「Hum! 」

Translation: "\"Hum! \"" Keep quotes.

Desperately pouring her own rule power in, the dense dark‑purple void energy instantly flowed into the stone door like water.

Translation: "Desperately injecting her own rule power, the rich dark-purple void power was instantly swallowed by the stone gate like water."

As the Void Insect Mother's power poured in, the formerly shattered stone door seemed to regain vitality; the curled corpses on the door stretched out as if coming back to life, rapidly repairing the cracks.

Translation: "As the Void Insect Mother's power flowed in, the originally shattered stone gate seemed to regain vitality; the curled corpses on the gate also unfurled as if coming back to life, repairing the cracks at great speed."

Unable to hold back her full power, at this moment the Void Empress felt as if sitting on pins and needles; the instant the stone door began to mend, she hurriedly turned her gaze toward Lin An.

Translation: "Daring not to hold back her power, at this moment the Void Empress felt as if sitting on pins and needles; almost as soon as the stone gate began to repair, she hurriedly turned her head to look at Lin An."

This is a blatant open scheme!

This is a blatant open plot!

She can only gamble—bet that Lin An can't find a suitable item, bet that he's been persuaded by her, willing to kill her rather than truly kill her.

Translation: "She can only gamble now: betting that Lin An cannot find suitable props, betting that he will be persuaded by her, willing to kill her rather than actually kill her!"

But fantasies are always beautiful.

Translation: "However, fantasies are always beautiful."

As soon as she turned back, the Void Insect Mother saw exactly what she most dreaded.

Translation: "As soon as she turned her head, the Void Insect Mother saw the scene she least wanted to see."

All that could be seen beneath the light sphere was Lin An, his whole body wrapped in a white light shield; at this moment, a dazzling white crystal had already appeared floating before him.

That seemingly simple white light shield, falling in the Xu Kong Chong Mu's eyes, yet seemed like a copper wall and iron wall, making her despair.

The reason is simple; the level intensity emitted by that crystal is surprisingly Star-Destroying Level, even approaching star-shattering.

Primal Energy Guard, 480 points.

I've wasted so much money...

"Your Majesty the Empress, what position do you intend to have me fuck you to death?"

A half-smile.

Inside the shield, Lin An tilted his head, like a devil toying with hearts, slowly flying toward Xu Kong Nü Huang's back.

He no longer wasted points exchanging for attack props.

The one-time consumable prop's Primal Energy Guard, with its monstrous defense, was enough for him to withstand the Empress's attacks and stab her to death, sword after sword.

"Lin Emperor... I..."

His whole body shuddered, as if falling into an ice cave.

Feeling the astonishing power that he absolutely could not break in a short time, Xu Kong Chong Mu could only utter a stiff, dry voice.

Their eyes met; seeing the undisguised brutality in Lin An's eyes, her heart felt like it was about to break.

"Pa!"

A crisp sound.

As Lin An slapped her buttocks, he commanded her to quit the chatter and block the door.

Suppressing the humiliation in her heart with all her might, at this moment, a despairing thought suddenly flashed through Xu Kong Chong Mu's mind.

(It's over!)

(This time I'm really going to be fucked to death!)
