520. A True Monarch Aims to Kill Lin Fei?
520. A True Monarch Aims to Kill Lin Fei?
In the void of the Divine Realm, at least a hundred Martial Gods and Deity Transformation powerhouses, along with their combat avatars, densely surrounded the area, making it impregnable. Yet, amidst this congregation of formidable beings, an eerie silence prevailed. Every head was bowed, and no one dared to speak. The atmosphere was heavy with tension.
No one answered Lin Fei. No one even dared to meet his gaze directly. Wherever Lin Fei looked, heads were lowered in submission. In this moment, the hearts of many powerful beings trembled with fear.
Lin Fei, with his singular might, had subdued numerous divine-level powerhouses, preventing them from even raising their heads. Even Initial Evil True Person, at his peak with tens of thousands of combat avatars, had never commanded such awe as Lin Fei did at this moment.
"If there are no objections, then I shall take my leave," Lin Fei declared.
"Swoosh."
His figure transformed into a streak of light and swiftly vanished into the void.
With Lin Fei's departure, the crowd finally breathed a sigh of relief. Yet, the thought of Lin Fei's ability to slay a Deity Transformation with a mere thought hung over them like a sword, creating an oppressive and uncomfortable atmosphere.
"Unbelievable! Just as the rumors suggested, Martial God Lin has mastered the art of illusion and can even control the minds of his opponents. Now, even Deity Transformation powerhouses face a threat to their lives when confronting Martial God Lin."
"Lin Fei might not just have mastered illusion. It could be related to Shen. Perhaps Lin Fei slew Shen and acquired some of its illusionary powers."
"Regardless of how Lin Fei obtained his illusionary abilities, the problem now is that he has the strength to slay Deity Transformations. He might well be the number one Martial God in the Divine Realm."
"Indeed, Lin Fei stands unparalleled in the Divine Realm, unmatched in both the past and likely the future," agreed the others, and these affirmations came predominantly from Deity Transformation cultivators.
In truth, their praises for Lin Fei weren't genuine. Nor were they meant to elevate his fame. Instead, their intentions were sinister. Proclaiming Lin Fei as the number one Martial God in the Divine Realm was a strategy, for in the world of martial arts, there is no second in literature and no first in martial prowess.
Ultimately, some Martial Gods, perhaps caring for such empty honors, might challenge Lin Fei. Or those harboring dissatisfaction with Lin Fei might see this as an opportunity. This was sufficient! After all, Lin Fei's existence made all Deity Transformations uneasy. Even True Monarchs couldn't easily slay Deity Transformations at will. Why should they now feel threatened by Lin Fei?
Of course, Shen once possessed such abilities, and many were aware of it. However, Shen was not as ostentatious, and it had weaknesses that could be exploited. But did Lin Fei have any weaknesses? Many pondered their own schemes in light of this development.
......
Back in Ancient City, Lin Fei returned and immediately entered a secluded chamber.
"The five Saber World secret realms have made my Saber World stronger! And now I have so much of the world's origin. Let's see how far these can enhance the particle worlds."
Lin Fei began to utilize these precious world origins. No matter how valuable, they must be put to use. Moreover, they needed to be applied to the edge of his saber.
The world origin Lin Fei had obtained this time was almost equivalent to what he had garnered in the True Spirit Realm. After all, the Heavenly Principle Realm was not small, and he had harvested its entire world origin. This was the advantage of dominance and strength.
With his formidable power, Lin Fei could indeed do as he pleased. He was aware that many Deity Transformation powerhouses were likely plotting against him in secret, even preparing to confront him.
Yet, Lin Fei was unafraid. As long as he continued to grow stronger, these adversaries could only harbor thoughts in their minds and would not dare to act.
As days passed, the world origin significantly enhanced the particles throughout Lin Fei's body. The enhancement wasn't as significant as the last time; previously, it had increased tenfold, but this time, it was merely a doubling. However, even a twofold increase on top of his existing strength was incredibly formidable.
Opening his eyes, Lin Fei realized the world origin was now entirely depleted.
"Particles have doubled in number," Lin Fei reflected. "The Saber World secret realms have increased by five. Including the previously enhanced six hundred particle worlds."
This increase in strength seemed no less significant than the last one. However, Lin Fei was acutely aware that he was about to face his fifth thunder tribulation, and each tribulation was more formidable than the last. While crossing the tribulation would be easy for him, Lin Fei aimed to gain as much understanding of the world's laws as possible, which required even greater strength.
"This time, the power of the particle worlds has greatly surged," he pondered. "I now possess one thousand nine hundred particle worlds. Six hundred of these were created from particles that had previously increased tenfold. Now, all particles have doubled from their original count!"
Lin Fei calculated, "If I face the fifth thunder tribulation now, withstanding five or possibly six heavenly thunders should be feasible. The seventh thunder, however, remains uncertain until I confront it directly."
Lin Fei was clear in his mind. While there was a good chance of withstanding up to six heavenly thunders, he was not sure about the seventh. The exact nature and power of the seventh thunder were unknown to him.
But, in his view, surviving six thunders to gain six world laws was an acceptable outcome. At least, with six laws, it would be easier for him to master a complete Dao in the future and achieve the status of a Martial Ancestor.
Lin Fei didn't aim for the extreme of pursuing ten or eleven laws. It was not worth the immense effort and time required to slowly gather world origin and explore Saber World secret realms. Gaining sufficient world laws was enough. With these thoughts, Lin Fei left his residence.
As Lin Fei was preparing to head to the location for his tribulation, he was suddenly contacted by someone from the Great Dream City.
"Hmm? Someone from the Great Dream City is looking for me?"
Curious, Lin Fei immediately made his way there.
"May I ask if you are Martial God Lin?" Standing before Lin Fei were two Martial Gods from the Great Dream Sect.
"Martial God Lin, Void Transformation True Monarch intends to kill you!"
His opening statement was startling.
"Hmm? A True Monarch wants to kill me?" Lin Fei's eyes flashed with surprise. "How do you know this, and why are you telling me?"
The Martial God smiled slightly, "Please do not misunderstand, Martial God Lin. I am Zuo Yuan, a disciple serving beside our sect's elder. The elder sent me to warn you. As a top-tier Martial God of our Great Dream Sect, it's unacceptable for you to be ambushed unknowingly. If it were just a Martial God-level confrontation, that would be one thing, but the elder won't ignore a threat from a True Monarch level.
However, the Divine Realm is vast, and even with our elder's divine abilities, it's impossible to cover everything. Therefore, as long as you stay within the Ancient Covenant's sphere of influence, our elder can ensure your safety."
Lin Fei respectfully replied, "Thank the elder for his concern."
"It's no trouble. The elder has high hopes for you and hopes to see you achieve True Monarch status soon." After delivering his message, Zuo Yuan left.
"Swish."
Lin Fei opened his eyes, returning his consciousness from the Great Dream City.
"A True Monarch wants to kill me?" He frowned deeply. This matter required thorough investigation, and he needed to find out more about this "Zuo Yuan."
