At the same time, I traveled through time and space, I dominated the heavens and the worlds

With Han Feng's demise, Lin Bei's power left an indelible mark in the eyes of the powerful figures present.

They were originally debating whether to find an excuse to slip away, so as not to lose their lives here.

But Lin Bei's provocative remark, "You all come at me together," immediately changed everyone's minds.

Is this eighteen-year-old so arrogant?
They admitted that this guy was very strong, but in terms of pure strength, he could win one-on-one, but it was hard to say whether he could win against multiple opponents.

After all, tactics are also very important in group battles!
The hundred or so powerful individuals instantly lost their will to retreat.

They looked around and saw that their side had a large and imposing presence. Then they looked at Lin Bei, who was all alone. Several of them couldn't help but show smug smiles.

The leaders quickly signaled for everyone to gather together. After a brief discussion, they decided to divide the hundred or so people into three teams.

Three squads launched attacks simultaneously from three different directions. They had to take any opportunity to launch a sneak attack, and they absolutely could not afford to make a mistake.

As for the others, they provided cover for the attackers during the frontal assault, diverting Lin Bei's attention.

As for the rest, that's a matter of opinion.

Moreover, these people in the lead figured that this young man named Lin Bei must have a remarkable background to be so capable.

If it's a family that dominates the continent, then it must be a renowned and famous entity.

But Lin Bei is not famous, which means that he most likely comes from a reclusive family.

The treasures of reclusive families are far more numerous than those of famous and renowned families.

Often, these family treasures are the rarest.

Therefore, Lin Bei must have quite a few rare treasures in his possession. If they were to divide them among the hundred or so people, it would be enough for each of them to own one.

As for the treasure he mentioned that could make someone instantly become a Dou Di, they would deal with that after dealing with Lin Bei, they would fight amongst themselves.

This continent reveres the strong, and everyone was satisfied with the allocation. In an instant, everyone turned their heads and looked at Lin Bei.

With Lin Bei's strength, he could hear everything clearly during the discussion.

He doesn't mind his opponents discussing tactics, nor does he mind them using any means to beat him; after all, he will always teach them a lesson.

That is, in the face of absolute strength, no tricks will work.

Watching the hundred or so people in the distance constantly changing formation, Lin Bei yawned and lazily asked, "Have you all made up your minds? If you have, then make your move. Anyway, it's just a matter of one move for me."

Lin Bei's words echoed in the high sky and also in the ears of about a hundred people in the distance.

The leaders remained unfazed by Lin Bei's provocative words; some even smiled.

These words undoubtedly boosted their morale and fighting spirit, so that when they attacked, they would unleash their full power to attack Lin Bei.

Faced with Lin Bei's provocation, the hundred or so people split into three teams, and the three team leaders raised their arms and shouted in unison, "Go! Kill him!"

The hundred or so people responded in unison to the three captains' shouts, and then the group that had gathered together immediately dispersed and flew off in three different directions.

Lin Bei remained suspended in place, motionless, watching with a smile as a hundred or so people played tricks on him.

Soon, the three teams took their positions, and then, as planned, they launched a massive attack on Lin Bei from three directions.

Furthermore, there are hidden attackers among these three teams. The attackers are already in position, ready to strike swiftly as soon as Lin Bei raises his hand to eliminate any of the teams from any direction.

Lin Bei stood with his hands behind his back, watching them unleash their flashy fighting techniques with a faint smile. Just as the techniques were about to reach him, Lin Bei sighed softly, "So that's what I mean, nothing special, nothing special at all."

The next second, countless fighting techniques struck him, and then all the attackers also made their moves.

Centered on Lin Bei, the sky seemed to burst into dazzling fireworks. In an instant, everyone's eyes were flashed with white light, and no one knew what was happening in the very center that was being attacked.

However, the next second, the world suddenly trembled, and countless white lights appeared in the very center of the colorful fighting technique.

The white light appears as a combination of lotus petals, spreading outwards in all directions at an extremely slow speed.

Wherever the white light reached, it devoured all the fighting techniques. Even those who got close to the white light felt themselves being struck by it and pushed away with crushing force.

If it can't be pushed away, it will be swallowed up.

At first, only about ten people were devoured, but gradually, twenty, thirty...

Some people tried to fight against this strange power, but no matter how much they struggled, they could not shake the ever-expanding white light that resembled a lotus flower.

Soon, some people began to run away.

That was the only way they could think of to save their lives after seeing no hope of winning.

Escape! We must escape!

Otherwise, I'll die!

The hundred or so people who had just been making a big show of attacking Lin Bei scattered and fled like birds and beasts.

Unfortunately, since they had attacked Lin Bei, Lin Bei wouldn't let them escape.

The move Lin Bei used was "Shinra Tensei".

Lin Bei simply made some modifications to it, making it more powerful and better looking.

Lin Bei sensed that someone was trying to escape. He was located at the very center of "Shinra Tensei". He smiled slightly and raised his hand to inject more power into the white lotus petals.

In an instant, the earth trembled louder and louder, and the speed at which the huge white light petals rolled increased visibly.

Amidst the wails and pleas for mercy echoing from the outer edge of the lotus petals, Lin Bei chuckled and shook his head: "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place. I already told you, if you're not strong enough, don't come and challenge me."

After an unknown amount of time, the enormous white lotus petals completely dissipated into the air, leaving the sky, which had previously been filled with about a hundred people, completely clear, without a single soul in sight.

Only Lin Bei remained suspended in place, calmly observing everything around him.

Below, Xiao Yan and Yun Yun stared wide-eyed at the scene in shock.

They didn't even know what had just happened.

All I know is that countless fighting techniques attacked Lin Bei, and then, centered on Lin Bei, a giant white lotus flower bloomed.

The lotus petals scattered and surged, finally dissipating into the air, leaving nothing behind.

Only when the world returned to tranquility did Yun Yun slowly tug at Xiao Yan's sleeve and stammer a question.

"Did you...did you just see what happened? Why was there a flash of white light, and then everything was gone...Where...where did those people go? Are they...are they all dead?"

Yun Yun was shocked, and Xiao Yan was equally shocked.

Actually, he hadn't seen clearly what was happening, and he couldn't answer a single one of Yun Yun's series of questions.

Xiao Yan thought for a moment, then turned to Yun Yun and smiled sheepishly: "How about we ask Lin Bei?"

Yun Yun swallowed hard. She wasn't that familiar with Lin Bei, so she definitely wouldn't dare to go. She nudged Xiao Yan, signaling him to go and ask.

Just as Xiao Yan was about to fly into the air, Lin Bei's calm voice drifted down from high above.

"Stay where you are. If you come any closer, I can't guarantee your life or death."

Xiao Yan paused, then looked up at the sky in surprise.

What does this mean?
Weren't all those who attacked Lin Bei killed by him? Why does Lin Bei sound like there are even stronger people out there?

The problem is that he didn't feel anything.

Xiao Yan believed that his strength was not low on this continent, and very few people could evade his senses.

Even the strongest person can be sensed by him with the slightest trace of their aura.

But what's going on now? Why can't he sense it?

If such a person truly exists, it can only prove one thing.

A chill ran through Xiao Yan's heart.

This enemy, lurking in the shadows, possesses the power of a Dou Di (Battle Emperor).

If it really was a Dou Di, Xiao Yan knew in his heart that he and Yun Yun had no choice but to desperately flee and hide.

If Lin Bei were to fight a Dou Di-level expert, this entire area, including the Yunlan Sect, would be razed to the ground.

Just thinking about this made Xiao Yan feel a cold sweat break out on his back.

Cold sweat trickled down his forehead. His expression changed drastically. He quickly turned around, grabbed Yun Yun's arm, and fled as fast as he could.

Yun Yun was startled by this sudden turn of events. She quickly asked, "What happened? Where are we going?"

Xiao Yan gritted his teeth and hurriedly replied, "Where else can we go? Run away! Didn't you hear what Lin Bei meant? If we stay here, we'll both die. There's someone here who hasn't shown up yet. Have you sensed them? No, right? So who is this person that we can't sense? Think about it yourself!"

After Xiao Yan reminded her, Yun Yun finally realized what was happening. Her face instantly drained of color, and she dared not ask any more questions. She gritted her teeth and ran away with Xiao Yan.

Just as Xiao Yan was rapidly retreating with Yun Yun, high in the sky, Lin Bei raised his hand, flicked off his sleeves which were free of dust, and calmly asked in a loud voice.

"Since you're already here, what's the point of hiding? Or do you want to figure out my background before you come out?"
Since you've been hiding, it means you still haven't figured out my strengths. Why don't you just fight me face to face? That would be faster, wouldn't it?

At this point, Lin Bei's gaze suddenly fell on the void in front of him, and he let out a cold laugh.

"Isn't that right? The first emperor to become a ruler on the Dou Qi Continent, the Soul Emperor."

In fact, Lin Bei did not expect that his words, spoken on a whim, would attract even the Soul Emperor.

However, he arrived rather late, and only when the hundred or so people attacked him did he quietly sneak up to a short distance away to observe the battle.

Lin Bei sensed it the instant the Soul Emperor arrived nearby.

Furthermore, he could sense that the Soul Emperor was now at the Dou Di level.

Lin Bei, who had initially thought that dealing with those hundred or so people would be somewhat boring, suddenly became interested again.

He wanted to have a good fight with a Dou Di (Battle Emperor), to see just how powerful a Dou Di on the Dou Qi Continent really was.

Not long after Lin Bei finished speaking, a ripple, like a circle of water, suddenly spread out in the void in front of him.

Immediately afterwards, a handsome man with long, blood-red hair and an aura of evil appeared out of thin air in front of Lin Bei.

Aside from being handsome and having an imposing presence, with bloodshot eyes and crimson hair, the Soul Emperor didn't give off the same vibe as those boastful hundred-person teams from before.

Of course, Lin Bei wouldn't underestimate him because of this.

Isn't Lin Bei himself the same?

He knew that the stronger someone was, the more they would suppress their outward aura.

Only the truly strong can live in seclusion in the city and remain unnoticed by anyone.

The moment Lin Bei saw the Soul Emperor, he finally felt that he had met his match.

Could he then hope that Soul Emperor would at least be able to break through his defenses?

While Lin Bei was sizing up the Soul Emperor, the Soul Emperor was also sizing up Lin Bei.

Previously, due to the distance and the interference of so many people, the Soul Emperor was unable to observe Lin Bei carefully at all.

It wasn't a matter of his ability, but rather that in his eyes, Lin Bei was no different from an ordinary person.

But the Soul Emperor knew that this was the existence he needed to be most wary of.

With his hands behind his back, the Soul Emperor's gaze swept back and forth over Lin Bei, trying to discern something different. With his abilities, at such close range, it was impossible for him not to notice.

But that's where the strangeness lies.

Even when face to face with Lin Bei, the Soul Emperor was unable to sense any power from Lin Bei.

Let alone weaknesses, he can't even detect the extent of his opponent's strength.

The Soul Emperor's heart tightened.

Since he obtained a fortuitous opportunity and successfully reached the Dou Di level, he had a moment of feeling connected to heaven and earth.

In that instant, he knew that he was the strongest being on this Dou Qi Continent.

No one can surpass him; he controls the life and death of everyone on the entire continent.

However, he hadn't even enjoyed this feeling of being above everyone for a few days when he heard that someone wanted to challenge all the strong people on the Dou Qi Continent.

They even released treasures that could make one a Dou Di (Battle Emperor) to lure people to their door.

When the Soul Emperor learned of this, he found it amusing.

If such a powerful treasure truly exists, why doesn't the other party use it themselves?

On this Dou Qi Continent, there is only one Dou Di.

So what is this guy's purpose in trying to attract powerful people to his door?
Soul Emperor was genuinely curious, and given his overwhelming strength over everyone on the Dou Qi Continent, he decided to have some fun and set off to catch up.

Now that he was right in front of him, Soul Emperor realized that this young man, who was only eighteen years old, might really have the strength of a Dou Di.

The Soul Emperor was also puzzled. What exactly made this arrogant young man so strong?
The move he just used was one that even he himself had never seen before.

He's a Dou Di level expert; do Dou techniques he's never even seen exist?

Previously, the Soul Emperor would have firmly believed that it did not exist, but now, seeing Lin Bei, he hesitated.

Since investigating is useless, he might as well have a good spar with this young man and maybe he can find out his background.

The Soul Emperor stared at Lin Bei, his gaze gradually turning cold. He slowly raised his hand, and blood-red mist appeared in his palm.

The moment the crimson mist appeared, countless thick dark clouds suddenly gathered above the two of them.

A fierce wind howled across the land, and a faint mournful cry echoed from the earth.

On this very day, amidst the earth-shaking, apocalyptic scene, dark clouds gathered at an extremely rapid pace, as if the entire sky were about to collapse.

Dark red light swirled around the Soul Emperor, and his scarlet eyes also emitted a red glow, which was fixed on Lin Bei.

"Boy, you've only lived eighteen years, what makes you think you can compare to me with a thousand years? I am the only Dou Di on the Dou Qi Continent, what are you?"
You don't actually think that defeating those small fry will allow you to challenge the real powerhouses, do you? (End of Chapter)
