Chapter 421: Lin Bai Staring into the Abyss

The moment he emerged from the dream, Dream Heavenly King immediately used the Dreaming skill on Lin Bai.

Taking advantage of the split second Lin Bai was dazed, he backhanded a blade into his own heart; his Spiritual Power surged along the blade into his body and detonated instantly, blowing himself into smithereens and dying back to the Resurrection Point.

Players do not have a self-detonation skill; if Dream Heavenly King wanted to die, he had to use a skill on himself, and he didn't even dare to use a gentle method.

He was terrified that if he were a step too late and got trapped by Lin Bai, he wouldn't even be able to commit suicide.

Lin Bai shook off his distraction and regained his senses; looking at Dream Heavenly King who had just wiped himself out, he praised him as a real man, noting that with this kind of ruthlessness, he was worthy of being the first among the Nine Heavenly Kings.

Lansidun, the God of Craftsmanship, watched the forced suicide of Dream Heavenly King and couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, gaining a new understanding of his master.

Unfortunately, Ruyi had run away again.

Lin Bai sighed, looked at Lansidun, and said, "Lan, there's nothing left for us to do here. Why don't we take this opportunity to farm a few Divinities! When the weddings of the remaining Heavenly Kings end, we'll rush over to help capture them. Losing one is already a huge loss; we can't let them run away again."

Farm Divinities?

Does he really not rest for even a single minute?

Compared to gods who sleep for decades at a time, Lin Bai was even more of a model worker than a model worker.

Lansidun complained in his heart, but his face still wore the most humble smile: "This subordinate is willing to cooperate with the Alliance Leader."

Emerging from the Resurrection Point, Dream Heavenly King's face was livid. He took a few deep breaths to steady his emotions before opening the chat group to review the past chat history.

A moment later, he typed: "Where is everyone?"

"Meng Laoda, you're back?"

"We are in Fengjian City, about to face off against the God of War."

"Players have already notified the God of War and the others about what happened in Shenmo Dalu, and the God of War has agreed to join us in dealing with Lin Bai's Darkness Divinity."

Three messages popped up almost simultaneously. Dream Heavenly King hurriedly said, "Everyone come back, don't make a move."

"Why?" asked Guang Tianwang. "We reached an agreement with the God of War and the others; we'll launch a feint attack, and they'll take the opportunity to turn on him. Taking down one of Lin Bai's Darkness Divinities in one fell swoop definitely won't be a problem."

"You don't know the latest news. Lin Bai possesses countless clones; killing one of his Darkness Divinities won't help at all, and it will only expose you," said Dream Heavenly King.

"One less is one less!" said Guang Tianwang.

"That's right, what's there to fear about being exposed? I feel uncomfortable just thinking about a Divinity wandering around the Immortal World," said Dark Heavenly King.

"Meng Laoda, how did you get back?" asked Thunder Heavenly King.

"......"

"Yeah, Meng Laoda, how did you get back? Were you killed by Lin Bai too?" Guang Tianwang finally realized the crux of the problem.

"Where are Xiaojin and the others?" asked Earth Heavenly King.

"They were trapped in Shenmo Dalu by Lin Bai's wedding; I committed suicide to get back," Dream Heavenly King admitted.

"Holy shit!"

"For real?"

"Even the boss's dreamscape can't trap Lin Bai? There's no way to deal with him?"

Another series of messages followed.

"The dreamscape can trap him, but the level of Lin Bai's Wedding Domain is equivalent to the dreamscape. Now, I can no longer control the dreamscape at will..." Dream Heavenly King briefly described his encounter in Shenmo Dalu. "Unless the wedding in the dream ends, the moment I deploy the dreamscape, I will be forcibly dragged into the wedding."

"Hiss! The wedding is that tough?" said Guang Tianwang.

"He's invincible then!" said Dark Heavenly King.

"What should we do?" asked Earth Heavenly King.

"Meng Laoda, your skills haven't been nerfed, have they?" asked Thunder Heavenly King.

"Who in this world can stop me from escaping?" Dream Heavenly King said. He then recalled his encounter in Shenmo Dalu, where he was called back by a few of Lin Bai's words, and his face burned slightly. He sighed and continued, "He can't catch me, so how could he nerf my skills?"

"What about Xiaojin and the others?" asked Guang Tianwang.

"Leave it to fate!" Dream Heavenly King sighed. "They know the weakness of Lin Bai's wedding. Before he shouts that phrase, committing suicide shouldn't be a problem, right! When they return, the eight of us brothers will join forces, add in the Star Brilliance Realm experts from the Immortal World, and enter the dream a few more times; we will definitely find a way to break the situation. Lin Bai has unified Shenmo Dalu; he will definitely strike while the iron is hot and attack the Immortal World."

"?" Thunder Heavenly King typed a question mark and said resentfully, "Meng Laoda, have I been removed from the Immortal World?"

"Xiaolei, don't think so much. Your skills have been nerfed; meeting Lin Bai would just be a free kill. Once we defeat him and get your Hammer back, you can train your skills back up," Dream Heavenly King said, realizing his slip of the tongue and offering comfort.

"Meng Laoda, what does this have to do with us not attacking Lin Bai's Darkness Divinity?" asked Guang Tianwang.

"Lin Bai has a movement technique that allows him to suddenly appear behind people; it's even more hidden and faster than the Magpie Bridge. As long as he has seen your face, you could be ambushed by him at any time. This time, my failure with Xiaojin and the others is inseparable from his bizarre movement technique," said Dream Heavenly King. "We need to keep a few trump cards. Besides, the gods of Shenmo Dalu are more of a hindrance than a help; we don't need to value them too much."

"What do we do now?" asked Dark Heavenly King.

"Come back and rendezvous with me, and gather all the Star Brilliance Realm experts to prepare for battle," said Dream Heavenly King. "I have already been marked by Lin Bai, so we cannot act separately anymore. Once my skills are nerfed, we won't have a single chance left."

"Understood," "Understood"......

Several Heavenly Kings responded simultaneously.

"Lin Bai wants to conquer the many gods of Shenmo Dalu; he shouldn't be able to spare any time for a while. Find more players to come to Dream City and have them bring all the copies of 'Justice Weekly'. I want to study Lin Bai's past; I have a feeling we've overlooked something important," Dream Heavenly King pondered for a moment and said. "We also need to get the players to stir up trouble; we can't let Lin Bai's backyard be too peaceful. A mere Lin Bai has suppressed all their gaming spirit; this generation of players is too weak. We must mobilize their enthusiasm......"

The aura of life was growing weaker and weaker, yet the gaze of the Abyss Lord grew increasingly calm: "Lin Bai, you had best release me. You have no idea what you are doing. You cannot possess my abilities; if you continue, you will regret it......"

"I will never regret it," Lin Bai smiled faintly, his hand movements quickening.

Nearby.

The Soul Fire of the Necromancer Monarch was extinguishing even faster.

After being reduced to an ingredient, his Undying Body, which he was so proud of, completely lost its effect. His bones were dismantled and smashed; he couldn't even speak anymore.

At the very instant the Soul Fire was completely extinguished, Lin Bai flicked a card over.

He successfully sealed the Necromancer Monarch. Upon releasing him again, he remained a complete skeleton, while inside Lin Bai's body, there was an extra surge of massive magic power and a whole heap of Undead skills.

The Necromancer Monarch was the existence second only to the Abyss Lord among the evil gods. With this fresh force joining, the Death Wind invaded every evil god's body, and the arrogance of the gods, who were struggling to hold on under the Thunder God Descent, was suppressed in an instant.

"The Abyss Lord is about to be subdued by him; we cannot possibly be his opponents. Let's go!" The God of Destruction saw that the situation was dire and threw a hammer at the Lightning Giant. The hammer struck the Lightning Giant's chest, and the towering Lightning Giant, which boasted it could hold out for three minutes, shattered instantly.

Afterward.

He transformed into a streak of light, smashed through the Dark Domain, and fled into the distance.

At the same time.

The God of Fear, the God of Vengeance, and other deities also realized the situation was wrong and scattered to flee.

"Since you've come, don't leave. The entire Shenmo Dalu has been liberated; where else can you run?" Lin Bai used a distraction and the Decibel Multiplier Skill to provoke them.

Provocation is an active Skill with a huge weakness; a day ago, Lin Bai wouldn't have dared to provoke so many deities at once.

But now, Provocation is a useful Skill for pulling monsters and no longer has weaknesses. Having shared so much Divinity from so many deities, Lin Bai was even too lazy to use marriage.

All the dark-type deities rolled back.

In horror, all the deities looked at Lin Bai.

The God of Fear roared: "Fight to the death! Even if we surrender, he will turn us into a Puppet. Let's gamble and see if we can rescue the Abyss Lord."

Following his words.

A beast tide composed of many transparent magical beasts roared and charged toward Lin Bai, its momentum earth-shattering.

Wherever the beast tide passed, the earth seemed to tremble, and the air was filled with a terrifying aura.

"I use the power of my Divinity to cast a curse. Under the shadow of misfortune, all of Lin Bai's actions will fail, and everything he does will produce the opposite effect." A black hexagram appeared at the feet of the God of Misfortune and expanded rapidly, reaching Lin Bai's feet in an instant.

The God of Vengeance said nothing, similarly controlling the formation to release streaks of firelight that enveloped them all, as well as the surging beast tide. As those transparent magical beasts ran, clusters of flames rose beneath their feet, tearing open the Dark Domain.

The death aura of the Undead Monarch was also pushed back by the flames when it approached the magical beasts...

Everyone unleashed their divine abilities, attacking Lin Bai with all their might.

Lin Bai's various attributes were weakened once again.

At this very moment, Lin Bai's final blade strike severed the spine of the Abyss Lord.

The Abyss Lord lost consciousness, twitching in the throes of death.

Release Absolute Suppression.

Lin Bai threw out a card, which enveloped the Abyss Lord.

The moment Absolute Suppression was released, all the surrounding magic power seemed to be attracted, crazily gathering toward the Abyss Lord's body.

In an instant.

His shattered body had already been seven or eight-tenths repaired, and his eyelids trembled slightly, as if he would open them in the next second.

But in the end, the card was one step faster; the light descended, forcibly sealing him inside.

The moment he was sucked into the light, Lin Bai even saw the Abyss Lord open his eyes, regain consciousness, and cast a look of hatred and unwillingness at him...

The moment the Abyss Lord was sealed.

All the Abyss creatures simultaneously let out a roar at Lin Bai.

The Dark Domain collapsed. Lin Bai felt as if his body had been frozen, and even breathing became difficult, as if every creature in the world had fixed its gaze on him, as if all living things were helping the Abyss Lord fight Lin Bai...

The light of Merit, which had once helped Lin Bai survive a deadly tribulation during his Heavenly Tribulation, appeared once again, helping him offset this suffocating sensation of impending death.

The light of Merit flashed for an instant, clearing away all Negative Emotion, and Lin Bai felt inexplicably relaxed all over.

Even so, he was still startled.

Damn it!

Is this the Abyss Lord?

Is this the consequence of subduing a top-tier deity?

Is the will of heaven and earth angry, or has something else happened?

He smacked his lips; thanks to the help of Heavenly King Meng, otherwise, relying solely on the wedding, it really would have been hard to handle the Abyss Lord...

Free City.

Feeling the upheaval between heaven and earth, the Earth Goddess looked up at the sky and suddenly sighed: "The Abyss Lord has fallen."

The War Goddess was stunned: "So fast?"

The Earth Goddess had a complex expression and said softly: "I didn't expect Lin Bai to really be able to subdue the Abyss Lord. Is the Justice Gate really above this world?"

The War Goddess looked at the Earth Goddess in surprise and asked: "Bairuisi, you aren't thinking of surrendering to Lin Bai, are you?"

The Earth Goddess looked back at her, her expression calm: "I cannot deal with two Abyss Lords at the same time, unless I destroy this world..."

The War Goddess widened her eyes abruptly, and after a long while, she murmured: "Bairuisi, perhaps cooperating with Lin Bai is not a bad choice."

The moment the Abyss Lord was taken into the card.

The God of Destruction, the God of Fear, and other evil gods stopped attacking almost simultaneously, each looking at Lin Bai, at a loss for what to do.

All attacks vanished, and heaven and earth seemed to fall into silence.

The Abyss creatures faced Lin Bai and all prostrated themselves on the ground, as if at this moment, Lin Bai had replaced the Abyss Lord and become their king.

Lin Bai looked around, looked at the golden card in his hand, thought for a moment, and released the Abyss Lord.

In an instant.

Endless magic power surged from his body, squeezing the Divinity and Spiritual Power shared from others into a corner.

Manic, painful, angry, and violent emotions filled Lin Bai's heart, making him unable to help but want to release them and destroy everything before him.

Lin Bai's eyes turned blood-red in an instant, and his breathing suddenly quickened. If his Mental Power had not been strong enough, he would have lost his sanity by now.

Even so.

His Mental Power still had a faint tendency to collapse.

Lin Bai took a pile of Spirit Fruit from the Spirit Fruit Tree and stuffed them into his mouth without stopping, only then barely controlling the desire to destroy everything.

Opposite him.

The dazed Abyss Lord suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Lin Bai, and his gaze held surprise: "I thought you would become me. I have to say, you are truly strange..."

"You have recovered your sanity?" Lin Bai suppressed the urge to recall the Abyss Lord back into the card and asked in surprise.

"I am different from the Earth Goddess; I do not have a divinity within me. I was born from evil. As long as there is still evil in people's hearts, I will not disappear, nor will I lose my consciousness," the Abyss Lord said. "The Divine Artifact you used to seal me is powerful, but it is not enough to extinguish my consciousness."

"Why did you say I would become you?" Lin Bai did not stop stuffing Spirit Fruit into his mouth; only in this way could he calm down and recover his ability to think.

"Everyone who attempts to master evil will be assimilated by evil." The Abyss Lord looked at Lin Bai, a Zhaofeng smile hanging on the corners of his mouth. "Do you know why I rarely leave the Abyss? Because only the Abyss can allow my reason to endure. Once I am outside for too long, I will gradually lose my reason, and this world will fall into endless catastrophe."

"When I fought the Dream Heavenly King, I was also suppressing myself and did not release my full power. Lin Bai, while you can still suppress the evil in your heart, you had best return to the Abyss, replace me, and become the new Abyss Lord."

"Mm, I know." Lin Bai sighed and continued to stuff Spirit Fruit into his mouth. A moment later, he looked at the God of Destruction and the others. "Did you hear that? You had best behave yourselves and obediently let me seal you, otherwise, I will no longer suppress my reason, and I will completely tear you apart and destroy this world."

He flashed to the side of the Abyss Lord, draped an arm over his shoulder, and said triumphantly, "Now this world has two Abyss Lords, the kind where one plus one is greater than two..."
