Chapter 1799: Exchange Point Battle

Mad laughter at its extreme.

Even if the world is about to be destroyed, even if the stars fall.

But at this moment, Hei Di and the others, whose skulls were squeezed into the ground, all burst out laughing excitedly.

The system function has been cut off!

Fate seems to have finally favored them!

At that moment, the dimming light sphere extinguished Lin An's hope, but it ignited the fire in their hearts!

"Go die, Lin An!! Go die! You weren't trying to exchange, were you!?"

"Exchange!! Let's see what you can still exchange!"

"Hahaha! After all your calculations, you didn't expect the system to fail, did you!?"

Not only did they want to rush into the Exchange Point to avoid disaster, but they also wanted to rush in to kill Lin An.

Hei Di strained to lift his head, his bloody eye sockets fixed on Lin An, desperately crawling on the ground with both hands.

Although they had self-destructed to only half a body left, they were equally exhausted; the six of them rushed in, and even if they had to bite, they could kill Lin An!

Lin An, unable to use the exchange function, no longer had the ability to turn the tide!

That exhausted vitality was even weaker than theirs!

In the midst of his manic laughter, Hei Di, like a ghoul, strained to scrape his hands against the incredibly solid ground beneath him.

Although the celestial body about to fall from above made him tremble with fear to his soul.

But at this moment, his heart was filled with endless drive!

Crawl in! Crawl in!

He wanted to bite off Lin An's flesh piece by piece, to let this monster know what pain truly is!

Like a zombie worm, the equally excited Chimera Emperor also desperately "wriggled" its own spine, crushing its bones, also striving to crawl into the Exchange Point.

For a moment, the Exchange Point seemed like a safe house besieged by zombies; the six Star Destroyers, struggling with their last breath to crawl in, were like zombies.

The scene was absurd and eerie.

No one expected that a Fifth Stage battle would ultimately turn into such a scene.

Under the rules and pressure, the once exalted Star Destroyers now fought like zombies.

Meanwhile, inside the Exchange Point.

Looking at the light sphere before him, dark as an extinguished bulb.

Lin An instantly stiffened in place, his spirit feeling as if it had sunk to the seabed.

There was no escape.

The Exchange Point was only this big.

Although Hei Di and the others crawled no faster than zombies under the surging pressure.

But he too was similarly suppressed by the gravity source.

The rules were still unusable.

With the system function cut off, his injuries were worse than Hei Di's; he could not even move.

His trump cards were exhausted, his fuel burned out.

Like a powerless ordinary person, he could only stay where he was and wait to die.

Could he forcibly reverse once more, even burn the past again?

Lin An gave a bitter laugh in his heart, knowing that even doing so would be meaningless.

He could not leave the Exchange Point; even if he recovered his last bit of strength and rushed out, he would likely be instantly crushed by pressure.

Staying inside the Exchange Point, at least the system's invincibility could still substitute for bearing some pressure.

Going out would only make him die faster.

Under the siege, even if Hei Di and the others survived, their frail strength could still wear him down.

Moreover,

If the system had not been cut off, his mission would now be considered complete.

If he could persist a little longer to be transmitted out, perhaps there would still be hope.

Yet in the system's warning, Lin An also realized that his means of "completing" the task seemed utterly illogical, causing the task to disappear.

(What should I do... what else can I do!!)

One last effort fell short.

He had relied solely on stubborn will to hold on until now; at this moment, Lin An felt endless fatigue as if it surrounded him.

He had already reached his limit; he truly did not know how he could break through anymore.

Just die like this?

"Lin Emperor! Lin An!"

As Hei Di and the others crawled into the Exchange Point with grim smiles, when Lin An's will sank, he suddenly heard a faint voice from behind his head.

Only seen, in the faint breath that Lin An had overlooked, a dark purple little worm was shouting at him in panic and urgency.

That faint presence, even lacking any rank, within that special form of aura, was actually the Xu Kong Chong Mu.

"Lin An! Think of a way!! Hurry and dodge!!"

The Insect Mother seemed to sense Lin An's current helplessness.

But at this moment, seeing Hei Di and the others rushing in, she harbored a million unwillingness to die.

She also had no strength left; even the Fifth Stage rules had disappeared.

But she wanted to live, so she could only pin her hopes on Lin An!

In his astonishment, Lin An instantly realized this was the Xu Kong Chong Mu. Merely hearing her anxious cries, his heart remained bitter.

He couldn't be bothered to worry about how the Xu Kong Chong Mu had managed to survive alongside him.

But it looks like this worm is useless now.

"Die, Lin An!!"

With a roar, Hei Di and the others who had already rushed into the exchange point launched an attack directly at him.

Seeing Hei Di, who resembled a half‑rotting zombie's white bone, Lin An's bitterness instantly turned into a cold intent.

Although there was hardly any hope left, his nature would only let him fight until the very last moment!

"Hum!"

He mobilized his last mental strength to resist the pressure.

As if an invisible, powerless hand dragged the sword hilt, the Cain's Blade he barely lifted became Lin An's final support.

Pointing the sword tip at the charging Hei Di and company, Lin An felt ruthless; even if he died, he would take a few down with him!

The battle was about to erupt.

The dragon head, roaring and opened, together with the simultaneously attacking Hei Di, like a zombie's outstretched hand, lunged at Lin An in a surrounding motion.

In just a few breaths, they could tear Lin An apart!

In the flash of lightning and stone, the darkness outside the exchange point surged again.

At the instant the two sides clashed, Lin An, who had originally held no hope, suddenly sensed a familiar power—so familiar it was uncanny—appearing on Hei Di.

That power was faint, almost imperceptible.

But...

That was....!?

His pupils contracted sharply.

Unaware to Hei Di, Lin An's heart shook violently, as if he had seen something inconceivable, and he stared fixedly at Hei Di!
