Chapter 1303: Lunatic
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Anyone would be able to tell that Lin Li’s tone was clearly full of contempt. However, Geresco seemed to have failed to notice it. He opened his arms while facing the sky, and indifferently said, “You’re right, that’s exactly why I’m here to see you! Why don’t we make a deal with each other? If I defeat you, you will willingly make up for my flaw, and if you defeat me, I will naturally do the same, and use everything I have to fulfill your wishes!”
What a lunatic! That was the first thing that came to Lin Li’s mind because Geresco’s proposal was akin to making a bet with each other using their lives. However, immediately afterwards, Lin Li couldn’t help but laugh bitterly. Geresco wasn’t being crazy, but rather he had given Lin Li a benefit that was too much for the latter to take!
It seemed to be a bet, but they were worlds apart in strength: one was a supreme existence who could suppress gods, while the other was just a Sanctuary powerhouse who had yet to even ascend to the Divine-realm. In the eyes of the gods, Sanctuary powerhouses were just nobodies that were slightly stronger than other nobodies. How could they be compared to Geresco who could suppress the gods?
If it was a bet, it would be one without any suspense. Even if Lin Li had already thought of using his life to fight, he didn’t think he had a chance at winning.
“Don’t you think that what you said is completely meaningless!? You’re already a god of gods who stands at the pinnacle of the world, while I’m just a nobody who hasn’t even reached the edge of the Divine-realm. Do you think this is a fair deal?” Lin Li mocked hostilely.
.
“That’s why I gave it back to you,” Geresco said with a faint smile as he pointed at Lin Li’s Stars of Fury.
Hearing Geresco’s words, Lin Li fell silent and tightened his grip on the Stars of Fury that he had just gotten. Indeed, with the power of the Stars of Fury and the debris of the stars, Lin Li would still have a chance of battling gods even if he was only at the peak of the Sanctuary-realm.
However, the problem was that Geresco was not an ordinary god. In the eyes of Geresco, gods were just like nobodies. In that case, could Lin Li really fight against Geresco with the power of the Stars of Fury?
However, since it had come to this point, Lin Li had no other choice but to believe in himself and in the Stars of Fury that had accompanied him to create one miracle after another in the Endless World.
A smile of relief suddenly appeared on the gloomy face of Lin Li, who had been a little nervous and even a little panicky since Geresco appeared. Holding the Stars of Fury tightly in his hand, he sensed its coldness, and looked at Geresco who was opposite him. He exclaimed, “In that case, let’s fight!”
Almost at the same time, Lin Li raised the Stars of Fury in his hand, and an extremely dazzling ray of lightning streaked across the sky before blasting at Geresco with the sound of a thunderclap. The sanguine sky suddenly became dull, and the lightning seemed to have split the sky into two. While roaring, it emitted a massive power that seemed to be able to destroy everything.
Under the simulation of the real Stars of Fury, the power that erupted from the debris of the stars, Thunderbolt, was far from what the power of the counterfeit Stars of Fury could compare to. The power of destruction and creation contained in the deepest layer of Thunderbolt caused the entire Anril to shake. At the same time, countless laws collapsed in that roar, and it was as if Anril was about to disintegrate in the next second.
Under the influence of the power of the debris of the stars, Thunderbolt, countless thunderbolts emerged from the sky above Anril, making it seem like there was an apocalypse in this world amidst the disaster. Countless thunderbolts roared and landed like the rain. Fortunately, they were just ordinary thunderbolts. Otherwise, Anril would probably be destroyed.
In the face of Lin Li’s surprise attack, Geresco smiled with satisfaction, and slapped the incoming thunderbolt to the side with a wave of his hand, as if he were swatting mosquitoes away. Next, his figure flashed, and he vanished without a trace, leaving behind only his voice that echoed throughout. “If you don’t want this world to be ruined, come with me.”
That was also an important reason why the five Dragon Aspects forbade true gods from entering Anril. Not to mention a battle between gods, each and every move of a god could cause great damage to Anril that couldn’t be made up for easily.
Although Lin Li had yet to reach the Divine-realm, the power he could exert with the Stars of Fury was not inferior to that of the real gods. If he were to really fight with Geresco in Anril, the world would probably collapse completely before victory was decided.
Lin Li was certainly aware of that, so when he saw Geresco flying into the void, the two pairs of dragon wings of the City of Destruction flapped twice without any delay. The massive City of Destruction immediately vanished, and in the next moment, the City of Destruction had already appeared in the Endless Void, and stopped in front of Geresco.
“This is my Divine Kingdom, Law!”
Although Geresco’s realm was countless times higher than Lin Li’s, he didn’t show a tinge of animosity at all. After appearing in the void, he opened his Divine Kingdom immediately.
However, in that void, a massive phantom of a world appeared, and countless chains crisscrossed, almost filling the entire world. Each chain represented the existence of a law. One was fixed in the World of Laws, while the other was in the Endless Void, with no definite end.
On the other hand, Geresco stood in the center of all the laws, and all the chains that were composed of laws were swinging like they had come to life, as if they were trying to break out of the Divine Kingdom of laws.
“World!” Lin Li didn’t dare to be slow, and immediately unfolded his Domain World. However, compared to Geresco’s Law Divine Kingdom, Lin Li’s Domain World seemed rather small and lowly.
An extremely realistic world which was like a microcosm of Anril appeared around Lin Li. The land was large, the vast sky was blue, the mountains and rivers were dense, and there were waves in the sea. Countless lives continued to be born and reproduce in this world.
In this Domain World, time seemed to be passing countless times faster than outside, just like a movie in fast-forward mode. The changes of the world and reproduction of life were all developing at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, intelligent beings like humans appeared, and in another blink of an eye, various cities and kingdoms appeared. Next, several wars between kingdoms broke out.
With the appearance of a wise man, the beings in the realm world gradually began to believe in a god who was said to be the creator of the world and all the beings in it. Several tall statues of that god began to be erected on the earth, and they all looked almost identical to Lin Li.
While everyone was worshiping him, several waves of power of faith condensed through the statues. However, Lin Li didn’t absorb the power of faith, and the power was instead integrated back into the space of the Domain World.
That was the reason that Lin Li was never able to step into the Divine-realm. Only by igniting the Divine Fire with the power of faith could he become a true deity. Although he could already obtain the power of faith, he couldn’t use it, and could only allow it to fuse with the Domain World again for its power to be enhanced.
Watching Lin Li unfold the Domain World, the smile on Geresco’s face did not fade at all. He raised his arm slowly, and pointed a finger at Lin Li. In the Law Domain World, countless chains of laws seemed to stir up like a million pythons, each of which seemed to be 1,000,000 meters long as they slapped at Lin Li’s Domain World.
In a moment, the chains of laws intertwined, and were woven to form a large web of laws. The Nether Storm that even the gods didn’t dare to touch disintegrated immediately amidst the fluctuations of the Chain of Laws.
Lin Li had no doubt that with the defensive power of his Domain World, he might not even be able to block it for a moment. Seeing that a Chain of Law was blasting over, Lin Li frantically raised the Stars of Fury in his hand, and three rays of light darted out one after another. Three pieces of the debris of the stars, Thunderbolt, Polar Snow, and Raging Flames, moved towards the Chains of Law.
Thunderbolt darted out, and immediately crossed the void to blast at the Chain of Law. In an instant, a brilliant ray of light emerged from the spot where the collision occurred. Layers of fluctuations spread out in all directions. The meteoroids that had been floating in the void for countless years were instantly shaken into dust.
After the debris of the stars Polar Snow darted out, it flew for a distance and then vanished. Next, an infinite amount of cold air emerged from the center, and silver snowflakes floated up from the void, causing the surrounding crisscrossed chains to be covered in a layer of frost.
At the same time, the debris of the stars Raging Flames rotated, and shone brightly in the pitch-black void above Lin Li’s head like a lotus flower that was filled with flames of heaven and earth. The endless flames swept in all directions like massive waves of a flood, blocking the Chains of Law that blocked him outside.
Under the stimulation of the Stars of Fury, the three pieces of the debris of the stars exuded a terrifying power that was simply unprecedented, and the light that was emitted from the laws it contained seemed to have been reflected throughout the Endless World. The countless worlds of various sizes that were hidden in the void were fully exposed under the light of the law.
Those worlds were the fragments of the worlds that were split when Anril was formed, and there were also the small worlds that had been expanded from the Divine Kingdoms left behind after the gods fell. Each small world contained a large number of living beings that were surviving and reproducing. Some were occupied by prehistoric magical beasts, and some were occupied by ancient clans that had existed for countless years.
However, at this moment, the apocalyptic disaster did not only descend in Anril. The battle between Geresco and Lin Li was like doom to those thousands of small worlds.
Boom! Boom! Boom! A series of explosions echoed in the void.
The millions of Chains of Law were interwoven, and the small worlds hidden in the void barely had the power to resist as they began collapsing and disintegrating immediately upon contact. Even though they were only affected by the aftershocks of the power, it was as if they were tiny boats in a gale, and the entire worlds were turned upside down.
“My laws shall subdue the gods!” Geresco did not have the slightest intention of showing mercy at all, and he raised his hand to point at the sky above him, after which the entire Law Divine Kingdom emitted bright rays of Divine Light. Numerous illusory faces appeared on the countless Chains of Law, each full of pious devotion. They were murmuring like gods, and created a scene of a gods’ pilgrimage.
Immediately afterwards, a Chain of Law that penetrated the void fell toward the lotus flower of the sea of flames above Lin Li’s head. With just one blow, it knocked the debris of the stars Raging Flames back to its original form, and fell towards Lin Li and his Domain World without stopping.
Lin Li could clearly feel that his current defensive power was probably insufficient for him to withstand the blow. Thus, he frantically yelled, “City of Destruction, Twin Trees of Eternity!”
With Lin Li’s voice, the City of Destruction beneath his feet shook violently, and the Twin Trees of Eternity in the city enlarged thousands of times in the blink of an eye. The crowns of the Eternal Twin Trees overlapped to form a giant green umbrella that covered the heavens and the earth before fusing with the sky of Lin Li’s Domain World.
The Chains of Laws, which were like a galaxy, collided into the green umbrella formed by the Twin Trees of Eternity with a loud explosive sound. In an instant, the sounds of branches and leaves breaking filled the air, and the green leaves darted in all directions, as if green light had risen.
In fact, these Chains of Laws were just like magic spells in the eyes of others, such as lightning, fire, and snow. However, the essence of everything was law, so in the eyes of Lin Li who could already see the essence of it all, they were presented in the form of Chains of Law.
Although Lin Li managed to block the blow that almost split everything in half with the help of the power of the Twin Trees of Eternity, the violent fluctuations that came from it still made him feel a strong sense of suffocation in his heart, and his head began buzzing as if tens of thousands of flies had been stuffed into it. That was one of the flaws of his low level. Even the aftershocks of the impact could affect his fragile body significantly.
Lin Li forcefully swallowed the blood that surged up in his chest. He then raised his arm at Geresco, and hollered, “Fire together!”
In an instant, countless muzzles of cannons appeared in the City of Destruction—they were the Sky-breakers that dwarven craftsmen had built and the Magical Crystal Cannons produced by the Gilded Kingdom. The muzzles of these thousands of cannons flashed with the light of mana, and thousands of mana cannons were fired immediately.
Facing a powerhouse like Geresco, a mere one or two Sky-breakers couldn’t cause any damage to him at all. However, the salvo of thousands of massive cannons resulted in a qualitative change in the power of the cannons. The light of thousands of mana cannons fused together to form a mana light that was hundreds of meters thick, and then cut through the void in an instant, and darted at Geresco in the Law Divine Kingdom.
Even ordinarys gods wouldn’t dare to face the light of the mana cannons head-on, as it could even form a bottomless black hole in the ground on par with the Great Whirlpool if it were to blast into Anril. However, Lin Li knew very well that the cannon light was still not enough to threaten Geresco, so a ray of black light and a ray of white light were emitted from the Stars of Fury in his hand at the same time.
