Samsara Paradise: Dream Weaver of Connections.

It has to be said that Lin Yi's move stunned Shangyue and Mondstadt behind him.

The ancient god was about to flee, but Lin Yi dragged him out of the spatial rift. Wasn't this a sting operation? How did it suddenly turn into robbery?

But at this moment, they had no time to think further.

The darkness, forcibly dragged out of the vortex, surged violently in the center of the wooden house, and the thick fog spread outwards like a living thing, swallowing up even the light wherever it passed.

Mond instinctively took a half step back, demonic flames erupting from his body, only to be suppressed and dimmed the moment they touched the black mist.

The black mist suddenly contracted inward, as if gripped by an invisible hand, and condensed into a massive figure three and a half meters tall in just two seconds.

At the same time, a data stream flashed across Lin Yi's glasses, and the information about this ancient god instantly appeared before Lin Yi's eyes.

[Comparing intelligence attributes of both sides... Comparison complete. Our intelligence attribute is 0.86 times that of the enemy, and the enemy's intelligence attribute has exceeded the 150-point true attribute barrier. We have only obtained 43% of the enemy's data.]

【…】

Lin Yi's gaze swept quickly across the data, and he had already made a judgment in his mind.

All I can say is that he truly lives up to his reputation as an ancient god, as he was able to break through the attribute barriers of this world.

The only pity is that the breakthrough was in the intelligence attribute. If it had been in the strength or agility attribute, then Lin Yi and Su Xiao might have to consider running away.

After all, both of their current attribute panels have just reached the 140-point limit. Once the opponent breaks through the 150-point barrier, it will be very easy for them to create a crushing situation in the battle between Lin Yi and Su Xiao.

This means that every attack the opponent launches against the two of them is a critical hit.

Moreover, this Nightmare God had actually killed a neutral deity, the Goddess of Light and Flame, Assaye, and even seized her weapon.

It can be said that the other party is an absolute ruthless god.

The last wisp of black mist around the ancient god Nigardi slowly dissipated, leaving behind an inexplicable sense of oppression.

That sense of oppression was not merely an imposing aura, but rather the surrounding space itself was submitting to Him, trembling slightly at His presence.

Nigadi was about 3.5 meters tall, with a grayish-white exoskeleton on his torso, which protruded outwards like ribs, making him look ferocious and terrifying.

Those exoskeletons appeared grayish-white, but were actually exceptionally tough, with a faint, dark light flowing across them—a manifestation of divinity on their bodies.

Nigardi's head was also completely encased in an exoskeleton, with an air vent at the mouth. As He breathed, those vents opened and closed slightly, exhaling a faint black mist.

Behind his head were rows of upright bone spurs, extending from the back of his head all the way to his neck, gleaming coldly in the dim light.

In His eyes, there was only indifference, cruelty, and contempt for everything.

His gaze swept over the people present as if they were a group of overconfident ants, his condescending attitude devoid of any emotion, just pure indifference.

What's most striking is Nigadi's arms.

His left arm was pitch black, and his skin was rough like the bark of an old tree, covered with fine lines, giving him an extremely strong defensive capability.

His right arm, on the other hand, was a grayish-white color, entirely composed of bone, with an exceptionally precise structure at the joints, where every connection was perfectly seamless, as if it were a machine meticulously crafted by the most skilled artisans.

This arm, composed entirely of bone, was specially modified by Nigardi for use with the Light Spear.

This spear pierced His chest and nearly killed Him.

If it were any other deity, they would have destroyed or sealed this murder weapon long ago.

But Nigadi is different.

He is indeed arrogant, but He seeks power even more.

Therefore, he was willing to sacrifice his right arm in order to use this gun.

This might be the ancient god with dreams.

In pursuit of power, one can give up many things.

hum-

A low, buzzing sound emanated from Nigadi's body.

A surge of energy appeared, and a magnificent spear nearly three meters long appeared in Nigadi's hand.

At his height of 3.5 meters, the spear of light did indeed look somewhat short when he used it, and it felt like he was holding a slightly longer sword.

The spear was entirely golden, with intricate runes engraved on its body, each rune radiating a warm glow.

The spearhead is triangular, with blood grooves on each side, reflecting a dazzling cold light under the sun.

A golden tassel swayed gently from the tassel of the spear, moving without wind.

But the strangest thing is that at this moment, the golden gun is shrouded in a thick darkness.

Gold and darkness intertwined and devoured each other, emitting a hissing sound, as if two completely opposite forces were fighting endlessly.

The spear, which represented hope and light, seemed to be lamenting something.

His master, the goddess who ruled the day, died in a dream, cruelly murdered by an evil god, who even took away her weapons and forced her to serve her enemy.

The spear of light trembled slightly in Nigardi's hand; the tremor was not one of fear, but rather a mournful cry.

But Nigardi didn't care at all.

He didn't even glance at the gun; he simply held it casually, as if it were a handy tool.

He did not use this weapon as a spear.

Judging from his grip, it looks more like he's using a sword.

After all, the Spear of Light was indeed a bit too short for Nigardi.

This is not His weapon; He cannot wield it with the same heroic flair and dragon-like speed as a certain goddess.

He only valued the gun's power, nothing more.

Whether you use it to chop or smash, as long as it can kill the enemy, that's enough.

Although Nigardi was very cautious, now that Lin Yi had brought him here, he naturally wouldn't run away.

If you're still thinking about running away at this point, that's not prudence, that's cowardice.

Right now, all He wants is to kill everyone here and then seize their soul crystals to accelerate His own evolution.

Twenty perfect-quality soul crystals are enough to elevate His strength to another level.

The moment Nigardi pulled out the Spear of Light, Lin Yi was not idle either.

All kinds of shields, status effects, and auras lit up instantly.

The attributes of the current group are still quite different from those of Nigadi.

Without Lin Yi's buffs, the opponent would easily be in a crushing situation.

After all, with 149 points of strength and 150 points of stamina, combined with that light spear with extremely strong armor-piercing ability, anyone hit head-on would only have one fate: death.

The moment Lin Yi finished applying the buff, Nigadi moved.

His actions were very simple.

Raise your right arm and point the spear of light forward.

That finger gesture was so casual, without even any extra energy fluctuations, as if it had been casually pointed in a certain direction.

But just as the gun tip pointed at Lin Yi—

The light before Lin Yi's eyes vanished instantly.

It wasn't dimming, it wasn't blurring, it was complete disappearance. It was as if someone had turned off the lights of the world; all the light, all the colors, all the outlines were stripped away in an instant.

This is Nigadi's special ability, the Domain of Obliteration.

Lin Yin could clearly sense that his own perception was also being suppressed.

He could feel that his senses were still there, but within the range of his senses, there was only emptiness, and he could not capture anything.

It's like someone who has their eyes open but can't see anything.

His reaction was extremely fast; almost the instant he sensed being suppressed, his body began to move backward.

At the same time, he exerted force with his feet, and his whole body leaped backward like an arrow released from a bow.

During his retreat, he did not attempt to resist the annihilation domain, but instead jumped directly into the shadow plane.

The moment Lin Yi entered the shadow dimension, he felt a sense of relaxation throughout his body.

The feeling of being suppressed disappeared, like surfacing from underwater and breathing air again.

But he didn't stop.

He immediately cast a purification spell on himself.

A white light shone from the top of my head and swept across my entire body in an instant.

With the purification spell taking effect, the sensory suppression effect was completely removed.

Lin Yi opened his eyes and looked around.

He found himself back in a corner of the cabin, at least five meters away from where he had been.

Where he had been standing, the tip of the spear of light had just passed by.

The spear tip was less than ten centimeters from his abdomen. If he had been any slower, even half a second slower, he would have been stabbed by now.

Even though he escaped a fatal blow, Lin Yi still suffered a huge wound in his abdomen.

That was caused by the Light Gun.

The spear of light tore through his clothes and skin, slicing through his muscles and almost touching his internal organs.

The wound extends from the left rib to the right waist, is about 30 centimeters long, and is deep enough to expose the bone.

Blood gushed from the gruesome wound, instantly staining his clothes red.

If Lin Yi hadn't retreated quickly enough, the opponent's spear would have cut him in half at the waist.

The power of the Light Spear is indeed terrifying.

If a mere graze can cause this level of wound, one can only imagine the consequences of being stabbed head-on.

But Lin Yi didn't care about his own wounds.

The light of healing magic shone on him.

The warm energy surged in from the top of his head, spreading along his blood vessels to his abdomen. Wherever it passed, the torn muscles began to regenerate rapidly, and the broken blood vessels began to reconnect.

In less than three seconds, the horrific-looking wound was completely healed.

The skin healed completely without leaving a scar, as if it had never been injured.

Meanwhile, on the outside, the battle has already broken out in full force.

Su Xiao, Shang Yue, and Mond have already begun their attack on Nigardi.

Nigardi was also a wise god.

At first glance, he could tell who the core of the team was.

It wasn't the guy with the knife, nor the woman with wings, nor the brute with all his strength.

It was the guy who used those strange threads to pull Him out of the spatial rift.

Therefore, his first attack was aimed at Lin Yi.

In team fights, prioritize eliminating the support; this is a principle that anyone with combat experience understands.

Unfortunately, Lin Yi's reaction was too fast, faster than He had expected.

That illuminating domain—He had used this move to kill countless powerful enemies.

Among those enemies were beings stronger than Lin Yi, experts who had stepped into the extraordinary realm, and pirate captains who had established connections with secret relics.

But no one could make such a precise judgment and react so quickly in the instant their senses were suppressed.

Most people would freeze for a moment and instinctively try to regain their senses.

That moment of hesitation was enough for him to complete the kill.

But Lin Yi was not stunned.

Without even a millisecond of hesitation, he retreated, jumped into the shadows, and purified himself.

The movements were fluid and graceful, as if they had been practiced countless times.

This made Nigadi even more wary of Lin Yi.

However, Lin Yi's disappearance also gave Su Xiao and the other two time to react.

The moment Lin Yi jumped into the shadows, the other three used their respective abilities to break free from the suppression of the Annihilation Domain and pressed directly towards Nigadi.

Su Xiao was the first to make a move.

He didn't hesitate at all, and didn't even glance in the direction Lin Yi disappeared.

The Dragon Slayer was drawn, and the blue-green blade drew a perfect arc in the air, slashing towards Nigardi's head!

That slash was incredibly fast; the blade made almost no sound as it sliced ​​through the air, leaving only a bluish-green afterimage.

Nigardi dodged to the side, and the knife grazed the edge of his head, severing a bone spur at the back of his skull.

A flicker of surprise crossed Nigadi's eyes the moment the bone spur broke.

This mortal's attack power was far stronger than He had anticipated.

But He didn't have time to think about it.

Because the second wave of attacks has arrived.

Mond lunged at him from the side, demonic flames burning wildly on his body, distorting the surrounding air.

He clenched his fists and, like a burning meteorite, slammed into Nigadi!
Nigadi raised his left arm to block.

The moment that jet-black left arm collided with Mond's fist, a dull, loud thud was heard.

boom!
The shockwave spread outwards, blowing away all the surrounding debris.

Mond felt as if he had been smashed onto a metal plate, and the force of the recoil made his entire arm slightly numb.

But he didn't back down; instead, he became even more excited.

"Cool!"

He grinned and swung his right fist again, this time with even more ferocious demonic flames.

Nigadi's brow furrowed slightly.

This guy's fighting style was even more insane than He had anticipated.

But He still didn't pay much attention.

What truly threatened Him was the final attack.

Sad Moon.

She didn't charge head-on like Mondl, nor did she use speed to launch a surprise attack like Su Xiao.

She simply stood there, her black wings fully spread, her hands clasped together in front of her.

Those silver eyes were fixed on Nigadi, and something was burning deep within their pupils.

With a sudden flap of her wings, she soared into the air, tracing a graceful arc as she swooped down from above.

The scimitar was drawn.

A silver blade flashed in the air, like a cold moon in the night sky, slashing towards Nigadi's nape!
Nigardi had to take this blow seriously.

Because He could sense that the silver blade contained a power that made Him wary.

That was a divine technique passed down through generations of the Feathered Clan, a move specifically designed to deal with ancient gods.

He dodged to the side, and at the same time swung his right arm, sweeping out a spear of light.

The spear tip sliced ​​through the air, accompanied by a piercing shriek, and slashed towards the crescent moon in mid-air!

Shangyue suddenly changed direction in mid-air, flapped her wings, and moved her body half a meter to the side, narrowly avoiding the shot.

But the force of the spear tip still grazed her wings, severing a few black feathers.

The feathers drifted through the air, but before they even hit the ground, they were torn to shreds by the aftershocks of the battle.

Just as Nigadi was about to give chase, a chill suddenly ran down his spine.

He turned around abruptly and saw that Su Xiao had already circled behind him, and the Dragon Slayer Flash was drawn again.

This strike was faster, more ruthless, and more cunning than before.

The blade went straight for the gap in the bone spurs at the back of His neck, the weakest point in His defenses.

Nigadi had no choice but to abandon his pursuit of Shangyue and turn around to block.

As he raised his left arm, a burst of dazzling sparks erupted the moment his dark skin collided with the Dragon Slayer.

Nigadi's pupils contracted slightly.

His left arm, which had been tempered for a thousand years, was actually breached by this mortal's sword.

But He had no time to think, for Mond pounced on him again. (End of Chapter)
