All laws are treacherous, I am the Spirit Lord

Chapter 424 Facing the Ancient Saints Head-on, Super Fun

At the beginning of this live broadcast across all the heavens and myriad realms, no one expected that a legendary weakling would steal the spotlight from a group of ferocious demigods.

It should be noted that if we compare combat strength...

Any one of those demigods could easily slaughter dozens of legends like Li Yu.

The difference in combat power resulting from the difference in rank is so cruel and insurmountable.

But this ironclad rule of common sense, which had persisted for countless ages, was broken in public by Li Yu.

As of now!

At least three demigods have already been killed by him.

Moreover, Li Yu is far ahead in the competition.

He seemed to sense this as well. After passing through nine different planes of descent and entering the tenth plane, he found it empty, with no other life and no cosmic catastrophe brewing. His movements slowed down, and he stopped frantically traversing.

……

Although, in the eyes of the audience, the Son of the Vortex God delivered another perfect performance.

But Li Yu showed little pride or joy on his face.

Others may not know, but he himself certainly does.

Being able to spot the flaws from the very beginning, leaving behind top demigods like Morning Star, Undying Blade, God of Slaughter, and First Corruptor.

It's because he cheated, of course.

The soul and body of truth are not created for nothing.

He glimpsed almost all the "cosmic catastrophes" and knew in which plane they were brewing.

Passing the game is incredibly easy, with absolutely no difficulty whatsoever.

In fact, he even had a way to complete the game without any losses, one that didn't even require wasting the Water of Life or the Philosopher's Stone.

One major reason it wasn't used was that it was too flashy and obvious.

If he were to swagger through without paying any price, no matter how he tries to explain it as "coincidence" or "good luck," it would still arouse suspicion.

The Lord of the Veil does indeed enjoy plot twists and drama, but He is not a blind and foolish god.

If there are too many coincidences, He might not be able to resist "rewriting the script".

When the dominant narrative authority comes down, let alone Li Yu, a mere bait-type True Monarch, even if he has already advanced to the [Creation True Immortal] level, or even the more powerful Sequence Two, he still won't be able to resist.

This is like a poor student!
Even if you steal the answers, you must deliberately copy a few wrong, otherwise you will not be able to extricate yourself from the situation.

But there is another, more important reason.

That was the third round of the ancient saints' pursuit!

Now that the Soul of Truth has been opened, one should naturally try to see as much as possible and arrange as much of the future as possible.

The route Li Yu chose was crucial to his survival in the pursuit of the ancient saint's avatar projection.

That's why!
Li Yu knew perfectly well that the road ahead was smooth, but he did not speed up his journey.

He was waiting, waiting for that opportunity.

Therefore, deliberately slowing down seems to indicate a return to caution.

And this opportunity came very quickly.

The natural disaster mode was extremely dangerous; in just a few dozen breaths, it resulted in the deaths of nearly ten demigods.

In addition to the initial characters such as [Yang Daoren], [Nirvana Venerable], [Son of Black Maitreya], and [King of Time Stop], later additions included [Hanging King's Messenger], [The Great Impure One], [Destroying Witch], and others.

Each one of them is extremely powerful, a strong being capable of traversing the multiverse.

Unfortunately, they all suffered from near-unsolvable cosmic calamities.

Their fall!
It also made all the viewers feel the cruelty and danger involved.

Therefore, it seems increasingly absurd that Li Yu's record is so outrageous.

Fortunately, at this time, the other demigods who had cleared the level also began to appear.

A combination of luck and strength allowed many demigods to successfully pass through the nine landing points and enter the safe zone after enduring only one or two natural disasters.

When the last demigod, namely the "First Corruptor," survived three cosmic catastrophes in succession and escaped in a sorry state.

Inside and outside the gates of all realms!

The rousing voice of the Lord of the Curtain, capable of stirring the emotions of any living being, resounded once more:

"The second round has ended, and the third round is about to begin."

"The projection of the gods' avatars will be deployed in three breaths. All prodigies, please be prepared."

"The third layer of the map has been opened ahead of time. It is a smaller but more complex multiverse, like a maze. The safe zone is at the deepest part of this multiverse maze."

"The first person to reach the only safe point will be the one who wins the competition and the champion will be crowned."

"three!"

"two!"

"one!"

When the voice of the Lord of the Curtain rang out, all the top contestants tensed up.

Even some of these demigods inevitably felt a barely perceptible fear deep within their souls.

Although they were all extremely ferocious demigods, what they were about to face were all true gods.

The source is the supreme deity who died at the hands of their opponents in the dueling battle.

It's like enemies meeting again!

The concept of the "Master of the Curtain" is indeed ingenious.

This also made all the viewers fully recognize the high quality of this first Boundless Grand Competition.

joke?

Those who can survive and win the championship under such circumstances.

Even if they haven't yet ascended to godhood, they are no different from true gods.

And what about the popularity rankings starting from this moment?

There is no doubt about it.

Li Yu, also known as the son of the Vortex God, is the number one in the fault zone.

Countless viewers and gods across the myriad realms turned their gazes toward the live stream he was on.

How far can the only legendary player go?
Will the son of the Vortex God survive?

As a legendary powerhouse of the flesh and blood path, would he be instantly killed in front of the sovereign-level true god [Ancient Saint] who possesses the "authority of flesh and blood"?

What other outrageous tricks can the Son of the Vortex God pull off?
Will the ancient saint's avatar projections show mercy because of the words of the sovereigns such as the Toad God, the Myriad Transformations, and the Blood God?

There are just too many suspenseful moments to count.

As for opinions?
Before this, almost all the viewers believed that the Son of the Vortex God was doomed.

Against other opponents, Li Yu could use tricks and cunning to get through, but now he was facing a supreme god, even if it was just a clone projection, it was definitely not something a mere legendary-level person could handle.

But now.

At least 30% of the audience wavered in their opinions.

The reasons given are as follows:
"The Son of the Vortex God has already proven you all wrong so many times, and I don't think this time will be any different."

"He cannot be regarded as an ordinary legendary being. His combat talent is enough to move the Blood God, and his scheming and plotting have pleased the Son of Ever-Changing many times. In addition, with that cosmic artifact that is armed to the teeth, the Son of the Vortex God may not be able to win the championship, but survival is definitely not a problem."

"The script of the Lord of the Curtain is never a death sentence; there is always a chance of survival. I'm afraid that the invited gods will only be allowed to release a projection of a demigod-level avatar. It will be lower, not higher, otherwise it would be too unfair, and no one would be able to pass."

"It's possible that the ancient sages have also set their sights on the son of the Vortex God, and are preparing to expose the Minotaur Vortex God on the spot during the live broadcast across all the heavens and myriad realms."

The last audience member's comment was convincing.

And in the next moment, it actually became a reality.

...In the empty universe of the Descent Point, Li Yu dawdled and had not yet gone to the eleventh plane.

Suddenly, on the other side of the distant universe.

There is a figure that no one can ignore, a figure that appears out of thin air wherever it is, the center of the universe.

In an instant, it moved in front of Li Yu.

This was none other than a "true god" draped in a robe of chaos. Even Li Yu, who was almost within arm's reach at the moment, could not see His full form.

All that could be seen was the robe that seemed to imprint the multiverse and all dimensions, and some terrifying scenes reflected in the flickering chaotic light.

For example, the skin is covered with layers of jade-like scales, as if containing boundless mysteries and radiance.

A pair of dark golden compound eyes capable of simultaneously observing the multiverse and even higher dimensions.

Where He is, there is authority.

As for how much power he has?
Similarly, no one can count them all.

But most obviously, without a doubt, is "flesh and blood".

The moment He descended!
The flesh and blood beings in that universe seemed to automatically lose all self and become its appendages.

As the only one, Li Yu felt it most deeply.

He finally understood the feelings that the organization, the Ten Saints, had described in the City of Blessings.

He seemed to be lying abruptly on an operating table, at the mercy of others.

Li Yu even suspected that with just a thought from the ancient saint's projection, he, the son of the Vortex God, would instantly mutate and fall into depravity, or die suddenly.

He didn't even have time to determine whether it was an illusion.

The ancient sage's invited avatar did not immediately kill Li Yu, the blasphemer who had killed His chosen one, the "Sage of Fate."

Instead, to the astonishment of all the audience, the divine decree was uttered, which, translated into human language, would be as follows:

"Surrender to me!"

"I will spare your life and bless you to become a new saint, helping you to ascend to demigod status right now."

"With your skills, you should be able to become the first Boundless Champion."

It came along with the imperial edict.

There's also the illusory blessing of the ancient saints, a clear hook and a sweet reward.

In an instant, all the audience members saw the "change" in Li Yu.

Watching him break free from the legendary level and advance to the demigod level, not only did he possess an extremely terrifying divine body, but the authority he wielded also only increased. His charm was preserved and enhanced, and he also gained authority such as "wisdom," "knowledge," "combat," and "modification."

The comment section immediately erupted in chaos once again.

Although many viewers had anticipated this scene, they still did not expect the Ancient Saint to go to such lengths.

According to the illusory blessing, if the Son of the Vortex God agrees, he will become the number one among all the contestants, regardless of his realm, authority, or divinity.

Given his cunning and treacherous nature, it's safe to say the championship is already decided.

Many viewers, including the true gods, couldn't help but start angrily criticizing the ancient saints.

The way you've done this has drastically reduced the excitement level, and the suspense has practically disappeared.

Even the narrator of the veil couldn't help but complain about the ancient saints.

He designed the "God's Revenge" segment in the battle royale mode. The reason he gave the gods autonomy, rather than using narrative authority to create puppets, was to add suspense and drama, as well as the power of projected clones.

But I never expected the ancient sage to use it this way.

It turns out they were planning to do this if the son of the Vortex God agreed.

He immediately "fed" his clone to Li Yu, helping him advance to demigod status and transforming him into an extremely powerful Ancient Saint's Favorite.

It can be described as a complete robbery and blessing, and it was done in public.

At that moment, almost no one in the audience thought Li Yu would refuse.

Even the most cunning and ever-changing Lord thought the Son of the Vortex God would agree, because he had no other choice but to die.

Since the ancient sage took action and dared to let the son of the vortex god choose in public, he must have removed the influence of the vortex god in advance. This would allow the son of the vortex god to completely break away from the state of a devout believer and choose according to his own heart. It might even have gone a step further and corrupted the other party's body and soul so that he would submit to the sage.

In person!

While it may seem that Vortex God is only one step away from the Ancient Saint, the gap is actually enormous.

True gods below the level of ruler have absolutely no chance of winning against the ruler.

The ancient sage was determined to "overpower" Him, and the vortex god was almost powerless to resist.

It is precisely because of these various prerequisites.

and so!
The next moment, Li Yu gave that unexpected answer.

This caused another huge uproar, and the tipping frenzy erupted once again.

"You are not worthy of my lord!"

Li Yu's mere utterance of this one sentence was enough to excite and agitate countless viewers.

When he used his divine power to directly shatter the illusory blessing on his body, restored his original appearance, and made an insulting gesture towards the ancient saint that was common in many universes of the boundless spirit world.

The audience across countless realms was absolutely thrilled.

A flood of enthusiastic and admiring comments poured in.

Meanwhile, on the live stream screen, all the gods also gave rewards.

The most eye-catching one, without a doubt, is the toad god who is laughing like crazy.

His joyful toad croaking almost enveloped the entire city of Wanfu.

He felt that his previous "investment" and "attention" had not been in vain.

Although the Toad God can simultaneously monitor the multiverse and spy on countless kinds of fun.

But at this moment!
The entire boundless spirit world cannot compare to the bustling scene before us.

Li Yu, this "successor of the Spirit Venerable," indeed lived up to the path to godhood he was on.

They are incredibly bold and have no taboos.

Of course, the price Li Yu paid for creating such a huge spectacle in an instant was not small.

The moment he refused, the ancient saint's clone was slightly taken aback, followed by the previously hidden, now completely exposed, malevolent killing intent that filled the entire empty universe.

next moment!
A claw covered in emerald scales suddenly emerged from the chaotic robe.

Several forbidden cosmic techniques, silently and instantly unleashed.

Li Yu didn't have time to do anything; instinctively, his eyes reflected the enormous changes in the universe.

All time and space were sealed off and frozen.

Furthermore, it constantly rejects him, as if he has become an invasive species in this universe, a cancerous tumor that needs to be eliminated. Even if he could take out cosmic wonders such as the [Dream Helmet], the [Ever-Changing Maze], and the [Invisibility Cloak] at this moment, they would be completely ineffective.

Even more terrifying is the invisible and intangible radiation storm that erupts in an instant.

Suddenly enveloped, Li Yu clearly felt himself being obliterated.

This extremely fast-paced, forbidden combo technique made Li Yu feel an unprecedented sense of impending death deep within his soul.

Meanwhile, the commentator from the "Curtain Master" appeared again during the live stream, praising Li Yu while also believing that he would not survive.

"Incredible! Unbelievable!"

"The Son of the Vortex God, with unimaginable perseverance, rejected the ancient saint's offer of recruitment. The fanatical faith actually withstood the corruption of a supreme true god. He will win the respect of countless viewers throughout the heavens and myriad worlds."

"At the same time, he also put himself in a completely desperate situation."

"The enraged ancient saint's avatar unleashed three forbidden techniques in an instant: 'Plane Seal,' 'Cosmic Repulsion,' and 'Spirit-Severing Storm'... This means that the Son of the Vortex God will have no way to escape or hide, and will face conceptual annihilation. Any living being will die at this moment."

"This is the authority of an ancient sage. Even a true god of flesh and blood would be severely injured if he were there at this moment."
