Chapter 250: Son of Chaos

A vast, surging domain of darkness spread out, completely freezing the fluctuations of space; as a domain fully formed by the activation of a four-colored divine artifact, even the peak experts among the Void creatures were affected.

"No..."

In an instant, those terrified Order Keepers of the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance were utterly annihilated by this domain of darkness.

Even that bald man in the silver robe, whose strength was not bad, barely managed to block the impact of the domain of darkness, yet he could not struggle free; a single destructive wave of darkness swept over him, completely annihilating him.

In the blink of an eye, aside from the side of Vierlo, only Lin Qing remained among those present.

The black-robed man holding the black forbidden-book divine artifact still wore a cold expression, as if the one who had just slaughtered the Order Keepers of the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance was not him.

"Vierlo, you actually had people slaughter the Order Keepers of the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance; are you mad?" Lin Qing said in a calm voice.

"So what?"

Vierlo said coldly, "The Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance is the embodiment of order; its existence is merely to maintain order, never favoring anyone. A group of Order Keepers with no background and no strength, who would avenge them?"

"What if I killed them?" The black-robed man holding the divine artifact forbidden book also chuckled, "At worst, I'll be wanted by the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance; do you think I care?"

Lin Qing understood as well.

As long as one had some strength and was unrelated to the Yu Xingyuan Demon Clan, anyone could join the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance.

Such a low threshold also meant the rules were very loose.

Even if it were proven that these Order Keepers were killed, the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance would only issue a bounty warrant based on the star rating of the Order Keepers before their death.

But unless too many Order Keepers were killed, that amount of bounty money simply could not attract powerful experts who posed a threat.

Moreover...

The resource channels of the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance were mainly useful for those without backgrounds, or only for those peerless experts whose needs exceeded the upper limit of a Type II civilization would they join the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance to become Order Keepers.

But for most powerful experts with backgrounds and resources, these channels of the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance were utterly useless.

How would Vierlo's side care?

"This mirror light... why is it so calm?"

Vierlo furrowed his brows slightly, feeling an ominous premonition in his heart.

"Could he be confident he can escape? Or is there another reason?"

But...

He had already gone this far; there was no turning back.

"First destroy his physical body, then hand his soul over to Mr. Mo Feng; I'm not afraid he won't hand over the Proof of the King..."

Vierlo took a deep breath; a decision had already been made in his heart.

Just then—

"The bounty the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance has issued against you has been announced."

Lin Qing suddenly spoke, while his gaze swept over the black-robed man holding the divine artifact forbidden book, "Your bounty is fifty million bounty money, or five thousand merit points."

He then swept his gaze over the others and said regretfully, "Pity, the others, as accomplices, have a bounty of merely a symbolic one million Void Coins, not even merit points? The Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance is indeed stingy."

That black-robed man, as the principal offender, had killed a three-star Order Keeper and other Order Keepers; his bounty was still quite good.

But that meager bounty for the others could be ignored.

"Is that so?" Vierlo said coldly, "Pity, even though you, this Star God, are dead, the Cosmic Star Patrol Alliance won't raise your bounty much for a mere one-star Order Keeper!"

At the same time, he also issued an order through the Second Universe Network:

"Act!"

Suddenly—

"Boom!!"

In an instant, centered on Lin Qing, a massive golden-yellow light erupted abruptly, stretching across the sky like a great sun, instantly dispelling this dead silence of darkness; the terrifying power that covered the heavens and earth fully erupted!

The power surging out in all directions immediately caused the void in this area to vibrate and distort violently!

"Young Master!"

The golden-haired masked woman's pupils, reflecting the great golden sun, contracted sharply like needlepoints at this moment; she immediately fully activated her divine artifact, desperately protecting herself and Vierlo.

And as the others felt this terrible explosive power surging toward them, nothing remained in their hearts but endless despair.

"This... what is this?"

"It's over..."

"How is this possible... even Lord Nova's five-colored divine artifact did not have such power!"

"Haha... we're doomed..."

At this moment, even those Void creatures possessing three-colored defensive divine artifacts, including the black-robed man controlling the dark forbidden-book divine artifact, were filled with despair in their hearts.

The gap was so great that they couldn't even summon the courage to resist.

"Boom-boom-boom—"

In an instant, endless golden-yellow light spread and expanded, like a rolling sun wheel growing larger; a dazzling great sun had already completely swallowed everyone present.

Immediately, the massive energy like a great sun began to condense rapidly, merging and collapsing like a long whale sucking in water to form a towering figure.

Everything returned to calm.

And on this island, a huge crater hundreds of kilometers in diameter appeared, forming an almost perfect hemisphere.

In the center of the crater stood a towering humanoid giant like a sculpture of a deity, its entire body black-gold, now emitting a terrifying, boundless oppressive pressure.

That massive divine body, reaching well over two hundred kilometers in height, was such that even the highest peak on Earth had not yet reached its ankle.

And Lin Qing floated within this towering divine giant, almost merging into the space between his eyebrows.

Outside the crater.

After that earth-shattering explosion, only Mr. Mo Feng, the golden-haired masked woman, and Vierlo remained alive among those present.

Mr. Mo Feng, originally possessing a noble temperament like a Yu Tian Shen, was now quite wretched, his entire body tattered and torn, his aura somewhat weak.

Even though he was a Star God, had cultivated various strange secret arts, and possessed three four-colored divine artifacts, facing that terrifying explosion just now, he had fought for his life to barely block it, yet he still suffered heavy damage.

"How... how is this possible..." Mr. Mo Feng stared, nearly dazed, at the towering divine giant that Lin Qing had become, hardly able to believe his own eyes.

"Damn it, Weiluo... wasn't it said that this Master Jingguang only transformed into Void four hundred years ago?"

He felt it was absurd. "In merely four hundred years, it actually created such an incredible divine technique? It clearly has no aura of a divine artifact. Could it be... a seven-aspect combined divine technique?"

As a Star God of high status, even superpowers who created seven-aspect divine techniques on their own, he had witnessed with his own eyes, but without a divine artifact, none were this terrifying!

Only those legendary powers in legends who created combined divine techniques with multi-aspect Void could possibly possess such strength!

"It's over..." The only thought remaining in Mr. Mo Feng's mind was this.

Meanwhile, Weiluo and that blonde masked woman were also staring blankly at the towering divine giant, their eyes full of shock.

"What kind of monster... four hundred years?"

Weiluo himself seemed somewhat lost and dispirited. "Even the Tianyuan Seat Holy Land... does such a monster really exist?"

He had already concluded in his heart that this Master Jingguang was merely a fox borrowing the tiger's might, a pretender pulling on the Holy Land's name, who actually possessed little strength; he only feared that the experts of the opponent's civilization were protecting them in the dark, so he had deployed such a formation.

If it were just dealing with a Void creature that had just broken through a few hundred years ago, he would not have deployed such a formation.

But what he did not expect was...

This Master Jingguang had no bodyguards at all; merely its own strength was actually this terrifying?

"No... I cannot die..."

Weiluo suddenly snapped out of his daze. "Is there any other method... I must live... Right! A Star God with such a huge threat, who is not a Star God of the Three Great Holy Lands, will surely become an extremely difficult opponent in the future; the Three Great Holy Lands must also want to eliminate him!"

He immediately sent a message via the Second Universe Network to that Void Sovereign of the Tianyuan Seat civilization, 'Xing Yin'.

The other party's father was one of the direct disciples of the Holy Land's Founder, holding high position and great power in the Tianyuan Seat civilization; for the sake of the civilization's Star God, he should also eliminate this Star God with such a huge threat in advance!

"This is the last method..."

Weiluo stared fiercely at Lin Qing. "As long as they arrive in time, I still have a chance of survival!"

"As expected..."

Lin Qing swept his gaze, the corners of his mouth rising slightly. Looking at Weiluo, he spoke: "I knew it, Young Master Weiluo. With your guard's skills, keeping your life is no problem."

His cold voice echoed through heaven and earth through this towering divine statue, causing the Void itself to tremble continuously.

Over these three thousand years, the perfect combined divine technique he created based on the World God had already absorbed the space mysteries of six aspects merging into one; it was considered the limit of theoretical conception.

His entire body could mobilize the Void; every movement contained immense power.

"Mr. Master Jingguang."

Mr. Mo Feng took a deep breath and suddenly spoke: "I was blind and foolish, trusting this Weiluo. Make whatever demands you wish; as long as you spare me and do not take away my Star God position, even if I must become a slave or servant, I am willing."

That towering divine giant glanced at him. Under the immense pressure, Mr. Mo Feng's soul trembled, and he involuntarily lowered his head.

"Is that so?"

Lin Qing casually reached out and grabbed. "My divine core is still single-colored."

A massive hand descended, blocking out the sky and sun. An invisible pressure squeezed the Void together in layers and layers; spatial scales changed drastically.

At this moment, in Mr. Mo Feng's eyes, heaven and earth seemed to expand infinitely, while he was as insignificant as an insect in a giant's hand. Even though he struggled desperately, the power of the four-colored divine artifact still shattered instantly!

"The gap is too great..."

Mr. Mo Feng's face instantly turned pale, his eyes full of despair. "At least the strength of the top tier of the Yu Xingyuan's fifteenth layer!"

And he, even with three four-colored divine artifacts, was only of ordinary strength at the Yu Xingyuan's fourteenth layer.

In terms of Yu Xingyuan layers, the difference was more than a major tier; that meant there was absolutely no power to resist!

In an instant, the divine giant's hand clenched shut. Mr. Mo Feng was already turned into nothingness by the massive invisible pressure, and the various items exploding from his ruptured Void were all taken away by Lin Qing.

At the same time, when Mr. Mo Feng died, that two-colored divine core merged into his soul was forced to manifest under the aura of Lin Qing's divine core.

Originally, a Star God's divine core was merely an intangible conceptual existence; only the divine core's aura could make it manifest.

"Take."

With a thought in his heart, Lin Qing's own single-colored divine core sucked that ownerless two-colored divine core over, beginning to slowly refine it and merge it into his own divine core.

However, the transformation of the divine core obviously still required some time.

Meanwhile, Weiluo and the blonde masked woman watching this scene from afar could not help but tremble in their hearts.

Weiluo knew very clearly.

Although his personal guard's strength was strong, capable of perfectly activating a five-colored divine artifact, making him a peak power among Void creatures, he was only at the peak of the Yu Xingyuan's fourteenth layer; the gap with the opponent was obviously huge.

"Young Master." The blonde masked woman also spoke in a low voice: "He is too strong. Even if I fight desperately, I am afraid I cannot block a single move. I am not skilled in flight and defense; even fleeing is impossible..."

Weiluo's mood became even heavier.

Cannot block even a single move?

Relying on strength to delay time was impossible now.

Just then, he suddenly received a message from that Lord Xing Yin on the Second Universe Network.

"Spatial coordinates? Descending an avatar?" At this moment, Weiluo could not help but feel wild joy in his heart. "I am saved!"

Although the foundation of a Void Sovereign's avatar was one major tier lower, after all, she was the daughter of that Founder's direct disciple; her strength was surely stronger than a general Void Sovereign. Perhaps she had already created a divine technique with complete spatial rules?

Such a powerful being, even descending an avatar, could suppress the peak existences among Void creatures.

Moreover, only the Three Great Holy Lands had the ability to descend an avatar across time and space in the deep, chaotic Void Sea.

"Weiluo."

Lin Qing looked at Weiluo and that blonde masked woman again and said in a calm voice: "It is your turn."

Weiluo fell silent with a pale face for a moment, then slowly said: "Mr. Master Jingguang, I admit your strength and talent are terrifyingly high, but have you considered that you are not facing me?"

As he spoke, he flipped his hand and took out a glass-like diamond-shaped crystal pillar.

The crystal pillar erupted with brilliant light; that terrible power instantly tore open a thread of spatial rift, and a streak of flowing light flew out from within.

Lin Qing did not rush to act, nor was he in time to stop it; he simply watched silently.

After all, the Star God had already been dealt with by him.

Even if another powerhouse far surpassing him appeared, as long as he possessed no Divine Throne, even if he were an avatar of a Star God, killing him would yield no Divine Throne, whereas with a single thought, he could resurrect in his homeland.

Only to see that streak of light fly out, transforming into a peerless woman in magnificent robes, with a colossal phantom throne hovering behind her.

It was none other than a high-ranking powerhouse of the Xiang Lin Civilization, the only ones qualified to receive the primordial protection and blessing of the Xiang Lin Sacred Land.

"Lord Xing Yin."

Vierlo, overcome with emotion and feeling a great weight lifted, respectfully said: "Greetings, Lord Xing Yin. This person is that despicable wretch who disguised himself as the Star God of the Xiang Lin Sacred Land. Just now, relying on some talent and strength, he even killed the one I sent to capture..."

"Well killed."

A cold voice cut off Vierlo's words.

Vierlo could not help but freeze, raising his head to look at the Lord Xing Yin before him with disbelief, and said incredulously: "My Lord, what did you say?"

Lord Xing Yin looked at him coldly; formless killing intent had already completely frozen the void, and her words made Vierlo feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar: "You such a base person, daring to plot against Lord Master Jingguang, are already unworthy of life. What? Do you still think I descended in avatar form to deal with Lord Master Jingguang?"

"Lord Master Jingguang...?"

Vierlo stared blankly at her, unable to understand what had happened, how suddenly even this lofty Lord Xing Yin had changed her address to call this Master Jingguang 'Lord'?

Lord Xing Yin was too lazy to explain further; with a mere wave of her sleeve, under the power of formless space, Vierlo, who had been protected by the blonde masked woman, was directly sealed inside a huge ice crystal, like an insect trapped in amber.

And that blonde masked woman was also powerless to resist, instantly shattered into nothingness, leaving only several divine artifacts and items exploded from the inner void, which immediately scattered all over the ground.

"Lord Master Jingguang."

Lord Xing Yin did not pay attention, but simply turned her head to look at Lin Qing, respectfully saying: "Previously, I did not know your relationship with Lord Jing, nor did I know your identity as the Child of Chaos. There was some misunderstanding; please forgive me. This Vierlo is now left for you to dispose of personally."

Having spoken, she seemed unwilling to stay any longer and vanished without a trace.

And Lin Qing remained standing there in a daze, his heart full of confusion.

"Lord Jing? Child of Chaos?"
