Chapter 1254 Divine Skill Shines Once Again
"Ancient God, what are you hesitating for? If you don't make a move, I will."

The ease on Lin Yi's face contrasted sharply with the solemnity on Hou's face.

With a sudden flap of his wings, Lin Yi swiftly moved towards the head of the beast. His speed was indeed very fast, thanks to his flight skill.

However, from Hou's perspective, it seemed rather slow.

Raising its right paw shrouded in black mist, Hou suddenly slammed it down. With the black mist's support, Hou didn't believe it would make any mistakes. With this palm strike, it wanted to see what trump cards Lin Yi had to counter it.

The moment Ke Hou raised his hand, Lin Yi's figure vanished from the spot, leaving only scattered blue lightning where he had been standing.

Where did this kid go? [Thunder Flash] was instantly unleashed, the Soul Severing Technique that could directly hit a soul body, and it was already in Lin Yi's hand at some point.

The sharp blade gleamed blindingly in the sunlight.

The infusion of divine power also gave this special artifact a brilliant glow. For a moment, the onlookers couldn't tell whether the light shimmering in Lin Yi's hand was the weapon's own or the unique divine power of the Undead Monarch.

The most vulnerable part of most living organisms is their neck.

Even the top gods of the higher planes are no exception; in every battle, they must protect their necks carefully.

Unfortunately, this ironclad rule had absolutely no effect on the Hou.

Enveloped in eerie black mist, the blade of the Soul-Severing Technique completely lost its sharpness.

The [Thunder Flash] effect was successfully triggered. The displacement distance was precisely controlled, but it did not affect the thousands of times enhanced attack after the [Thunder Flash] was triggered.

This attack was an enhanced attack with true damage. In order to fully unleash the power of this attack, when it reached the neck of the Hou, Lin Yi gripped the hilt of the sword with his right hand and slammed his left hand hard on the hilt.

The purpose was to allow the divine weapon in his hand, which could strike directly at the soul, to be embedded as deeply as possible into the Hou's body.

"Knowing it's impossible yet still doing it, should I call you a hero?"

Wuzhiqi within Lin Yi's body was sighing.

The skill 【Epitaph】 is considered a god-tier skill in the early game.

At that time, Lin Yi had no rivals on Blue Star. With his strength, he could foresee things that would happen long in the future. With this skill, Lin Yi became a god-like existence on Blue Star.

There are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding.

Since leaving Earth and witnessing the vastness of the Three Realms and Six Paths, and encountering countless powerful beings of different levels and abilities, the skill [Epitaph] has become quite useless, basically only having a guaranteed future vision effect.

Foreseeing the short-term future can indeed play a role in battle, but when there is a significant difference in strength, it becomes very difficult to turn the tide of battle through short-term future vision.

It's different now.

After raising his divine power level to Grade A, Lin Yi seemed to have suddenly broken through the constraints of this world. Many of his previously impractical skills suddenly became divine skills.

Take, for example, the current [Epitaph] skill.

The biggest limitation of this skill is the level difference between the user and the enemy; it would be more accurate to say it's a difference in divine power level.

It should be understood that the difference in divine power levels is not to be underestimated.

Sometimes, even though you know you're only one level below your enemy in terms of divine power, the system for determining divine power levels is very strict.

It is almost impossible to challenge a stronger person whose divine power level is higher than one's own.

The reason why the gods found Lin Yi so incredible was not only because of his extraordinary combat power at such a young age, but also because of his ability to challenge opponents far beyond his level. The skills Lin Yi possessed were extremely powerful and effective, some even reaching monstrous levels.

But these skills were all acquired by Lin Yi when he was on Earth.

Even top-tier divine skills are affected by the effect correction caused by the difference in divine power level, let alone ordinary skills. It is perfectly normal for the skill effects to be greatly reduced.

Now everything is alright, now we're all free.

Looking across the entire Three Realms and Six Paths, there is no one whose divine power level is higher than Lin Yi's.

Under these circumstances, Lin Yi's incredible skills brought from Earth could finally come into play.

For example, in the battle against the Hou, the skill [Epitaph] played a significant role.

Enveloped by the external artifact, the Black Mist, Lin Yi's future vision ability could not be fully utilized; he could only see five seconds into the future after his battle with the Hou.

However, for a master of Lin Yi's caliber, five seconds is more than enough to know about the future.

The reason why Wuzhiqi sighed that he did it even though he knew it was impossible was because Wuzhiqi, who shared the same vision, clearly saw the effect of Lin Yi's knife landing on Hou's neck.

Lin Yi's attack was swift, and the blue lightning effect made it look incredibly cool.

Even though the Soul-Severing Technique was incredibly sharp, even though Lin Yi poured a large amount of divine power into it, and even though Lin Yi's attack was all-out, he still couldn't break through the black mist's defense.

The imagined clash of titans did not materialize.

If the Divine River Song is the sharpest divine weapon in the world, then the Black Mist is a vast ocean.

No matter how sharp a divine weapon is, if it attacks wildly in the vast ocean, it will be of no use whatsoever.

Lin Yi had already foreseen this outcome, yet he still launched his attack with utmost seriousness.

Seeing Lin Yi's audacity, Hou remained calm and raised its giant claw, aiming to slap Lin Yi to death on its own neck.

Hou's attack speed was very fast, slightly faster than before, and even with the [Fiery Eyes], it was somewhat blurry.

What terrifying speed! The Great Sage, watching the battle from inside Lin Yi's body, couldn't help but exclaim in amazement upon seeing this scene.

The Great Sage can't be called an ancient god, but he is very confident in his strength. In terms of combat power, in the era in which the Great Sage lived, there was almost no one who could rival him.

The Great Sage doesn't have many attack methods, but his fighting power is so strong because of his near-perfect physical skills.

His indestructible body, the Ruyi Jingu Bang (Golden Cudgel) that can change size at will, and his Fiery Eyes that can see through every detail greatly enhanced the Great Sage's abilities in close combat.

With just a staff in his hand, the Great Sage turned the Three Realms and Six Paths upside down. Who would have thought that when he saw Hou make his move, the Great Sage would be shocked by the way it attacked.

Fast, pure and simple fast.

That's powerful! The Hou's attack power contains pure force.

As the attack landed, the space was compressed, making it impossible for even Lin Yi to activate his [Light and Shadow Interweaving] skill to escape.

If Lin Yi hadn't used the [Epitaph] skill to predict the attack's landing point in advance, this strike would likely have forced out Lin Yi's [Immovable] and [Unbreakable] skills.
