Chapter 725 introduces even more overpowered stats and mechanics.
Chapter 725 introduces even more overpowered stats and mechanics.
Thus, in this desolate and barren edge of the universe, a breathtaking spectacle appeared that would leave all cultivators in the myriad realms utterly astonished.
Looking out from the endless, distant depths of space.
Ahead, a golden light as dazzling as the sun shone brightly. It was the Emperor, the ancient black hand that had fully activated the blood and qi of the Ancient Sacred Body and was fleeing frantically like a stray dog.
Wherever he went, the abandoned star debris and space meteorites along the way were all smashed to pieces by his violent escape aura.
Behind that golden light, less than ten thousand miles away, an extremely sharp white light was relentlessly pursuing him.
Where the white light passed, there were no violent explosions, no ferocious roars, only smooth black spatial rifts that seemed capable of cleaving even the very fabric of heaven and earth, which lingered in the void for a long time, unable to heal.
The once aloof and arrogant emperor, who regarded the heavens and earth as a chessboard and the eternal geniuses as chess pieces, is now like a frightened bird being chased by a hunting dog, relentlessly pursued by a white light!
Two beams of light darted wildly through the shattered star field, moving so fast that they left countless afterimages in their wake.
The Emperor would turn his head back from time to time, and each time he did, he would see that the white sword light was getting closer and closer to him. The suffocating feeling of impending death made this old monster, who had lived for millions of years, feel a tremor from the depths of his soul.
Meanwhile.
In the void tens of millions of miles away from this chase, on that battlefield that had been shattered by the previous clash of the ultimate paths.
Lin Hanzhou, who had become as withered as a dead tree due to overdrawing his lifespan of 40,000 years and whose aura was so weak that he seemed to be about to be extinguished at any moment, was quietly suspended in mid-air.
His dry, white hair fluttered slightly in the cosmic wind. Although he barely had the strength to move a finger, his deep eyes shone with a bright light that seemed to see through everything.
He paid no attention to his injuries, nor did he worry about his lifespan being burned up. Instead, he leisurely turned his gaze to the far-off comical chase scene unfolding in the distance, where "golden light was being chased and slashed by white light."
Regarding the astonishing sword strike unleashed by his future phantom just now, Lin Hanzhou, as the true self, has discerned some deeper clues.
In fact, the answer to why his future phantom could so irrationally ignore the Emperor's perfect Chaos Saint Body defense was not as complicated as the Emperor imagined, nor did it involve any unspeakable immortal secrets.
The real core reason lies hidden in Lin Hanzhou's talent.
Lin Hanzhou narrowed his eyes, looking at the white figure in the distance that had driven the Emperor Venerable into a panic, and a knowing smile appeared on his lips.
He had already made a very certain guess in his mind.
My future self will definitely have incredible luck and draw a powerful talent related to kendo.
The description of this golden talent should include the characteristic of "ignoring all defenses".
Yes, it's that simple, that unreasonable and domineering.
No matter if your physical body is an ancient sacred body that has undergone countless temperings, or if your laws are the chaotic origin that can assimilate all things and is immune to all laws.
In the face of the absolute mechanism of "ignoring defense", everything else is just a useless decoration!
Even if a legendary immortal were to come, one sword strike would still sever an arm.
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
Lin Hanzhou couldn't help but let out a gloating sigh in his heart.
The mechanism of "immunity to all methods" has encountered a mechanism of "ignoring all defenses".
This is such a perfect match for my major!
This is like the strongest shield encountering the most unreasonable spear. Obviously, under the system's rules, "ignoring" has a much higher priority than "immunity".
Looking at the mastermind behind the scenes who was once unapproachable and used all sorts of extraordinary abilities and methods to oppress him to the point of despair, Lin Hanzhou felt an unprecedented sense of exhilaration as he watched him being reduced to escaping with a severed arm due to the mechanism being restrained.
He finally understood a truth.
Indeed, the best way to defeat a boss whose stats and mechanics are severely overpowered is to bring out stats and mechanics that are even more overpowered than the boss's!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you boast of your infallible strategies, claiming to have controlled the fate of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths for millennia..."
Lin Hanzhou let out a mocking whisper in the cold void.
"But if you can calculate everything about all living beings and all the myriad principles of the universe, how could you possibly calculate... that I'm a cheat code with a system?"
In the distant starry sky, the chase continues.
The white-clad youth raised his silver longsword once more, its chilling light seemingly transcending the shackles of time, drawing a death warrant in this desolate edge of the universe, signaling the end of the mastermind behind the scenes.
"Sizzle—!"
A sharp, chilling tearing sound suddenly rang out in the lifeless depths of the cosmic wilderness.
That silvery-white, chilling sword light seemed to be an absolute ruler that transcended time and space, ignoring the raging chaotic air currents along its path, and even ignoring the hundreds of spatial barriers that the Emperor had painstakingly set up behind him.
The sword light sliced through the void at an incredibly tricky angle, carrying a lofty and aloof air of "annihilating all laws," heading straight for the Emperor's back.
"Damn it!"
As the Emperor was fleeing for his life, he sensed a deadly sharpness behind him that could freeze one's soul, and couldn't help but let out a curse in his heart.
At the critical moment, this mastermind who had lived for millions of years displayed his almost superhuman combat instincts.
He bit his tongue sharply, forcibly reversing the momentum of his body and raising his body three inches higher. At the same time, his figure veered wildly to the right in a bizarre posture that defied the laws of nature.
However, despite his extreme dodge, the speed of the sword light was simply too fast, so fast that even his thoughts couldn't keep up.
That streak of silvery light ultimately grazed the Emperor's left side.
"Pfft!"
The dull sound of flesh being sliced open by a sharp blade rang out again; it was an absolute cut that no defensive magic weapon or protective aura could withstand.
A stream of blood, as shimmering as liquid gold, gushed out from under the Emperor's ribs.
The Emperor grunted, his face a mixture of rage, humiliation, and deep fear.
He looked down at his current miserable state, and the sense of shame in his heart gnawed at his pride like a venomous snake.
