Chapter 741: The Might of Reincarnation Manifests, the Backlash of Hun Dun
Lin Xuan felt the violent fluctuations of the power of Lun Hui within his body; every time it circulated, it felt like ten thousand arrows piercing his heart.
The brilliance of creation and the profundity of nothingness collided fiercely within his bloodline, the resulting energy impact subjecting his meridians to unprecedented pressure.
But he did not retreat; instead, he increased his power output.
The gold and silver interwoven Light of Reincarnation surged from his body, forming more islands of order within the Hun Dun Qingshi field.
The birth of every island was accompanied by the reshaping of reality.
The distorted time returned to its normal flow, and the chaotic space stabilized once more.
Those cultivators and demonic beasts struggling in pain under the erosion of the Hun Dun power flocked to these sanctuaries.
A Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator had just escaped the Hun Dun region and shouted excitedly:
"It works! The power of Lun Hui really works!"
Their body had just been crazily shifting between different forms, nearly losing their human shape entirely.
Now that they had finally returned to normal, the joy of surviving a catastrophe was evident in their expression.
More people trapped in the Hun Dun field saw hope and desperately moved toward the islands of order.
But Lin Xuan soon discovered that the cost of maintaining these islands of order was greater than he had anticipated.
Stabs of pain came from deep within his bloodline, as if countless fine needles were piercing his soul.
The Taiji Creation Bloodline began to show cracks under the impact of the power of Lun Hui.
"Damn it... this load is too heavy."
Lin Xuan gritted his teeth and persisted, but he could feel his life force draining away rapidly.
Although the power of Lun Hui was strong, it was still too much of a strain for him to fully control at his current stage.
The Hun Dun Devourer sensed Lin Xuan's predicament and let out a triumphant, wild laugh.
"Feeling the pain, are you? Little brat!"
"The power of Lun Hui can indeed restrain this seat's Hun Dun field, but can your body withstand it?"
Its body began to swell again, continuing to grow from its mountain-like height.
One thousand zhang, three thousand zhang, ten thousand zhang...
It soon reached a terrifying scale that blotted out the sky and covered the sun.
The entire sky was blocked by its massive figure, and Wanyao Island seemed to fall into an eternal night.
As its volume increased, the power of the Hun Dun field also multiplied.
More regions were dragged into a state of Hun Dun, and the distortion of reality became even more intense.
"Hun Dun Backlash!"
The Hun Dun Devourer suddenly unleashed an evil spell never seen before.
This spell was specifically targeted at the characteristics of the power of Lun Hui and was extremely insidious.
Every time Lin Xuan used the power of Lun Hui to heal a region eroded by Hun Dun.
The Hun Dun Devourer would create even larger-scale destruction elsewhere.
Lin Xuan had just stabilized a region on the east side, and more severe Hun Dun phenomena immediately appeared on the west side.
He turned to rescue the west side, and the south side fell into chaos.
This vicious strategy kept him running ragged, unable to concentrate his power for an effective attack.
What was even more terrifying was that every time he was forced to divert his attention, it increased the burden on his bloodline.
The cracks on the Taiji Creation Bloodline became increasingly obvious, and blood seeped from Lin Xuan's seven orifices.
"Lin Xuan!" The Lord of Nothingness tried to assist, releasing the power of nothingness to attack the Hun Dun Devourer.
But the moment the dark power of nothingness touched the Hun Dun Backlash spell, it immediately became unstable.
The originally pure nothingness began to be mixed with Hun Dun components, losing its ability to erase reality.
Instead, it became an accomplice in destroying order.
"What?" The Lord of Nothingness was shocked to discover that their power had been polluted.
"Why has this seat's power of nothingness become like this?"
The Hun Dun Devourer explained triumphantly:
"Hun Dun Backlash does not just attack the power of Lun Hui, but pollutes all power that attempts to resist Hun Dun."
"Your power of nothingness has now been infected by this seat's Hun Dun."
"Soon it will completely lose control and become a tool for destroying order!"
The Lord of Nothingness felt unprecedented panic.
If the power of nothingness lost control, it would not only fail to help Lin Xuan, but would also become a weapon for the enemy.
It immediately stopped its power output and focused entirely on suppressing the Hun Dun infection within its body.
But with this, Lin Xuan lost his most important ally.
The situation on the battlefield deteriorated instantly.
Although Bai Suxue and the Canghai True Dragon had broken free from the shackles of the Seal Array, their condition was extremely weak.
Only three of the nine tails behind Bai Suxue remained intact.
The other six had dissipated during the process of maintaining the Seal, and her Nine-Tailed Fox bloodline had suffered heavy damage.
It was already her limit to barely maintain her human form; she was completely unable to participate in the battle.
The situation of the Canghai True Dragon was even worse.
Three thousand years of cultivation were almost exhausted, and even maintaining a human form had become difficult.
The powerful dragon bloodline was dim and lusterless, and it could completely wither at any moment.
"We... we can no longer help," the Canghai True Dragon said weakly.
"I am sorry, little friend Lin Xuan."
Tears welled in Bai Suxue's eyes, her heart filled with guilt.
"It is all because we are too weak, unable to support you at the critical moment."
Lin Xuan comforted the two while dealing with the backlash attacks from Hun Dun.
"You have already done enough; without your Seal, I would have had no time to prepare at all."
"Rest well now, wait for me to finish off this guy."
But his words were full of strain, the pain in his bloodline making his voice tremble.
Just then, earth-shaking shouts came from the distance.
Jian Wentian was leading a large group of cultivators to organize a new support operation.
"All cultivators at the Golden Core Stage or above, follow me!"
"Nascent Soul Stage cultivators are responsible for clearing the path, Golden Core Stage cultivators are responsible for rescue!"
"We must share the pressure for fellow Daoist Lin Xuan!"
Hundreds of cultivators formed a battle formation under his command.
Although they could not directly confront the Chaos Devourer, they could rescue those trapped in the chaos field.
This would lighten the burden on Lin Xuan as he maintained the island of order.
But the expansion speed of the chaos field was too fast, and its danger exceeded imagination.
Many cultivators were eroded by the power of chaos during the rescue process.
A Nascent Soul Stage Elder had just rushed into the chaos zone when his body immediately began to twist and deform.
"Ah—!" He screamed in agony, his originally dignified face becoming shattered and broken.
Seeing this, the other cultivators retreated one after another, not daring to enter rashly.
"Damn it! The power of this chaos field is too terrifying!" Jian Wentian gritted his teeth.
"Even Nascent Soul Stage cultivators cannot resist it!"
The situation had become precarious.
Lin Xuan faced the full-force attack of the Chaos Devourer alone, his bloodline load already nearing its limit.
The Master of Nothingness was infected by chaos and could not even look after himself.
Bai Suxue and the Canghai True Dragon were heavily injured and weak, unable to fight.
The supporting cultivators were blocked by the chaos field and could not get close.
The entire battle situation presented a one-sided disadvantage.
The Chaos Devourer became increasingly smug, beginning to prepare its final, fatal blow.
"It is time to end this game!"
Its body underwent another change, and this time it was not a simple increase in volume.
It was a fundamental transformation of form.
Countless tentacles separated from the Core, each one thousands of zhang long.
The ends of the tentacles grew huge mouths, revealing dense rows of sharp teeth.
"Chaos Devouring Great Art!"
The Chaos Devourer unleashed its true killing move.
All the tentacles acted simultaneously, surrounding Lin Xuan from different directions.
