#621 - Competing with God
The dark, metallic fist swept through the air with fierce force, a blow capable of splitting mountains and rivers, causing the surrounding air to groan in agony.
Yet, the man at the center felt no pressure, not even bothering to glance up.
His slender eyes remained fixed on the woman before him, who was attacking with unwavering intensity, his gaze filled with pity.
In the man's eyes, the female war goddess was merely engaging in foolish acts fueled by passion.
Daring to stand before him, attempting to impede his progress, when she wasn't even qualified to touch the power of the Primordial.
Possessing a divine body, he didn't even deign to dodge a human forbidden spell.
The steel fist of the towering giant was not only indestructible, but also carried a force of at least a hundred tons when fully swung.
Faced with such a terrifying blow, how many of the Blue Star's war god-level experts would dare to withstand it head-on?
This mysterious man was the first to be so arrogant in the face of Great Xia's War Goddess, Xi Yue.
Without deliberately defending or mobilizing the source power within his body to create a technique for a head-on collision, he allowed the giant's iron fist to land squarely on his forehead.
The height difference between the hundreds-of-feet-tall giant and the two-meter-tall man was immense; the giant's fist alone was dozens of times larger than the mysterious man.
However, the massive iron fist did not unleash the earth-shattering power one would expect; instead, it turned into dust particles a short distance from the man, scattering in the wind.
In an instant, the entire arm of the giant that had launched the attack completely vanished.
This scene stunned all the war god-level experts within District G.
No wonder they couldn't comprehend it even after a lifetime of effort, or rather, they weren't even qualified to come into contact with the power of the Primordial.
The scene of the forbidden spell being disintegrated before their eyes was completely beyond their understanding.
Confined to the knowledge of Blue Star, how could they possibly possess enough imagination to construct the power and image of something that completely surpassed the highest laws in their minds?
The robot summoned by the mechanical forbidden spell had no self-awareness; regardless of the disparity in strength, it would not feel the slightest fear; even if half of its body was destroyed, it would not feel any pain, nor would it retreat in the slightest.
By the time Xi Yue wanted to recall the giant robot, it was already too late.
The Primordial power surrounding the man was like an irresistible black hole, unleashing an extremely terrifying suction force, pulling the massive giant robot towards him.
A contest of laws often leads to only one outcome: the waxing and waning of each other!
The highest laws at the Dao Harmonization level were vulnerable and destined for destruction in the face of the Primordial power.
The backlash from the shattered skill instantly pierced through Xi Yue's internal organs, stirring up her blood and Qi, and in an instant, a mouthful of fishy sweetness surged into her throat.
Unable to suppress the breath, Xi Yue spat out a mouthful of blood.
Now, an uninvited guest had come for the elderly couple, and Xi Yue was risking her life to stand in front, how could the elderly couple bear to watch?
"Stop!"
"Aren't you just after us two old folks? We'll go with you, just don't make things difficult for the child!"
Lin Guodong and his wife pushed through the crowd and rushed out, shouting at the man suspended in the sky.
The weakness brought about by the backlash made Xi Yue experience a deep sense of powerlessness.
She was well aware that even if the war gods present risked their lives, they might not be able to stop the mysterious man for even a moment; any further effort would be futile.
Seeing that his targets had appeared, the man's eyes finally showed some luster; with a flash, he immediately appeared before Lin Guodong and his wife.
"You two, what you said seems a bit off, I didn't lay a hand on this girl, she did it herself-"
The man's face was originally full of confidence, but in the next second, his smile completely froze.
"How, how is this possible!"
The dark sky regained its original light; as the caster, he clearly felt that the barrier he had set up to isolate District G from the Imperial Capital had been effortlessly destroyed.
Someone, no, a god, had broken through the barrier he had set up in the Imperial Capital with divine power!
It was at this moment that all the Blue Star war gods who were preparing to take action became honest.
Completely contrary to their previous selfish behavior.
After enjoying the benefits that Lin Yi had brought them, their mindsets had gradually changed, and they suddenly understood what the words "community of human destiny" meant.
How could they allow an unknown fellow to just take away Lin Yi's parents, how could they watch Lin Yi's woman fight alone?
Through the Eye of Omniscience, Lin Yi clearly saw all of this.
Putting everything else aside, at least he was very gratified now.
All the efforts he had made for Blue Star were worthwhile.
"Apostle, right?"
"Seeing that the situation isn't good, you're resorting to tricks, I really didn't expect that one day I could force you apostles to this point, so, I, Lin Yi, am quite capable, huh."
The moment the barrier was broken, Lin Yi stood in front of his parents.
His figure couldn't be called majestic, but the moment Lin Yi appeared, not only did Lin Guodong and his wife feel at ease, and Xi Yue breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground, but the war gods who were preparing to take action instantly lost the worry on their faces, replaced by full confidence.
Having taken the Divine Power Pill not long ago, Lin Yi had not fully digested its medicinal properties, and at this moment, he was still surrounded by divine power visible to the naked eye.
Having spent decades together day and night, how could the mysterious man not see that what surrounded Lin Yi was the divine power of the Goat-Headed Apostle who had invaded Blue Star with him?
What made the mysterious man feel the most pressure was not the divine power of his companion being absorbed, but Lin Yi's aura at this moment.
A mere mortal actually possessed the aura of an apostle; was it really okay for the gods of the heavens to ignore such a rapidly growing kid? You must know that this kid possessed the Great Sage Martial Soul.
If this kid really encountered some opportunity one day, allowing that troublesome monkey to come back to life and inherit the monkey's skills, it was unknown whether the gods of the heavens would be able to deal with Lin Yi at that time.
As a god, a powerful being who controlled the order of many planets in the lower realms, the man possessed the pride unique to a strong person.
But he had to admit that Lin Yi was strong enough to bring Blue Star to such a height with his own strength.
In ordinary lower-realm planets, even if the strongest person on that planet triggered the will of the planet for their own use, it would only be a mantis trying to stop a chariot in front of an apostle.
Lin Yi was able to break this convention with his own strength, and as an apostle, he had to admit Lin Yi's excellence.
