The God of Heavens

Chapter 360: Grab it and refine it in an instant!

Outside the divine realm, eight colossal cities guarded the central holy land like an iron fortress.

Lin Yu and his group were standing in front of the giant city in the southeast direction. The dark city walls gleamed with a cold metallic light, and the dense array patterns flickered with a dangerous light.

"Let's end all of this today."

Lin Yu raised his hand and tapped lightly. In an instant, the heavens and earth trembled, and a beam of immortal light, ten thousand feet long, slashed down like a celestial sword. The city's defensive formation broke in response, and a huge gap was cleaved in the magnificent city wall.

"Who...who is this person?!"

The city's inhabitants were terrified. The figure who had cleaved through the giant city did not stop, but led a group straight into the divine realm, his fighting spirit soaring to the heavens.

Although the divine realm is vast and boundless, it is not considered large for cultivators, especially for the old gods who use the power of faith to monitor the world. Lin Yu's undisguised aura is like a torch in the dark night.

"Who are you, daring to offend the divine realm?"

A majestic voice came from the depths of the divine realm, shaking the mountains and rivers.

A middle-aged man with gray hair appeared, leading dozens of powerful figures from the temple to surround Lin Yu and his group, with the overwhelming pressure of a Great Sage.

"Kneel down and kowtow to the divine realm, begging for divine forgiveness, or you will perish both body and soul!" the middle-aged man shouted sternly.

Lin Yu chuckled lightly: "A frog in a well."

"kill!"

The gray-haired man's face was gloomy. He struck out with his palm, unleashing the Great Stele Hand, which lived up to its name. His palm and fingers transformed into a black stone stele, emitting a thunderous roar as it cleaved forward.

With a fierce offensive, this is a powerful figure among the Great Sages.

"boom!"

Lin Yu took a step forward, his whole body radiating boundless light. He threw a punch, causing the world to lose its color, and the vast blood energy shattered the void.

"boom!"

Blood mist splattered, and the gray-haired man exploded on the spot, his bright red holy blood spilling out. All the temple knights froze in place.

"The old master... was shattered by a single punch?"

The entire divine realm fell into a deathly silence. The fall of the Great Sage was already earth-shattering, let alone being killed instantly.

"Death to the blasphemer!"

The four holy kings roared in unison, and the four beams of light that shot out from the heavens merged into one, transforming into a sacred figure forged from starlight.

Who has offended my authority?

The immortal body, formed from the power of faith, emitted a vast heavenly sound, and with a single palm strike, a mountain range stretching for ten thousand miles turned into an abyss.

Lin Yu's eyes were cold. He raised his hand and pointed, and the immortal light shone brightly. The Great Dao vanished into nothingness, and the statue of faith was instantly cut in half at the waist.

"Ah! Blasphemer, I will remember you!"

The vague will let out an unwilling roar, and its form shattered into thousands of light points. The four Saint Kings turned to flee upon seeing this, but were blown away by a divine wind and all turned into dust.

Beyond the divine realm, all is silent.

The shattered divine light scattered like blood rain, dazzling yet tragically beautiful. The immortal body, formed from the power of faith, was torn apart by the "godslayer" from beyond the realm, a scene that shook the entire Other Shore.

Even the immortal body of God was defeated.

The powerful figures of all races were terrified, and the divine army of the Divine Realm turned ashen-faced. Everyone understood that since this demon could destroy the body of faith, defeating a true god was by no means a pipe dream.

"Boom!"

A tremendous disturbance suddenly emanated from the depths of the divine realm. A golden altar rose from the ground, its dazzling divine light soaring straight into the heavens. The old god could no longer remain still.

In an instant, a vast divine consciousness swept across the eight directions, causing the sun, moon, and stars to lose their luster, leaving only the aura of supreme holiness and divinity flowing between heaven and earth.

"A miracle!"

"With the intervention of the supreme deity, the demon will surely be slain!"

Believers prostrated themselves in worship, and powerful figures from all races kowtowed. A surge of faith power flowed from all parts of the divine realm, coalesced in the void, and draped over a figure that was even more sacred than before, like divine armor, dazzling and radiant.

His body, forged from starlight, exuded an aura that seemed to freeze time and space, truly like a god descending to earth.

"Is this the true divine power?" The Nine-Tailed Crocodile Dragon's scales stood on end, and the Demon Emperor's Ancient Scripture operated autonomously to resist the pressure.

The six ears of the six-eared macaque trembled in unison: "This old thing is even more troublesome than I imagined."

Lin Yu smiled, his eyes gleaming with an unusual light as he gazed at the descending figure: "Finally decided to come out?"

A divine figure swept across the entire area, and a resounding heavenly voice declared: "Those who blaspheme against the divine realm shall be punished!"

Before the words were even finished, the entire world seemed to be paused, time stood still, space froze, and only the divine hand slowly pressed down, turning mountains and rivers to ashes wherever it passed.

"Well done!"

Lin Yu let out a long laugh, and the Primordial Dao Fruit suddenly began to operate. In an instant, chaotic energy soared into the sky, tearing a crack in the solidified spacetime.

"Today, I will give this divine realm a new master!"

This long howl shook the entire divine realm violently.

"Immortal Map, descend!" the old god roared. Even though the situation was unfavorable, he was still confident that as long as he used the supreme artifact, he could suppress this arrogant fool.

However, the next moment, the divine realm almost collapsed, and the spiritual treasure array diagram that was floating above the altar broke through the air and completely ignored the old god's summons!
"The divine plan remains neutral, neither taking sides!" an old god exclaimed in surprise.

The entire divine realm was thrown into chaos, and no one could understand why the supreme artifact would show leniency to this extraterrestrial demon.
Only Lin Yu knew the truth: he had persuaded the Four Swords of Zhuxian, and the array diagram would indeed no longer be used by the Old God.

"Boom!" The colossal palm that blotted out the sky pressed down, covering the heavens. Its divine might was immortal, and the old god's divine body was shattered and grabbed by Lin Yu.

"Impossible! You have no divine status, nor are you a person from the divine realm. How could you possess a supreme artifact?"

The old god's face turned deathly pale. All his confidence collapsed at this moment. Without the supreme artifact, he had no chance of winning.

"Supreme Artifact! Why did you choose the extraterrestrial demon and abandon the Divine Realm?!"

The old god roared on the altar, his voice shaking the heavens, but the array suspended high in the sky only rotated slowly, shrouded in chaotic mist, ignoring the old god's questioning.

The entire divine realm was silent. Whether it was the old gods or the powerful figures of various races, everyone was stunned. No one understood why the supreme artifact that had protected the divine realm for thousands of years would betray its people today.
"So that's how it is. I've lost."

The old god, appearing as if possessed, roared to the heavens: "So, Supreme Artifact, are you waiting for a new god to ascend the throne?"

"No! I don't believe it! I will defy the heavens!"

He suddenly unleashed a divine power that shook the heavens and the earth, with holy radiance covering the sky and terrifying fluctuations causing extraterrestrial stars to fall, and the entire celestial realm to present a scene of world destruction.

"Too much internal monologue!"

Lin Yu crushed the old god to death in one swift motion and refined him instantly!
God is dead!

The entire other shore trembled. Even in various parts of the divine realm, countless cultivators witnessed this scene: the high and mighty god was actually crushed to death by an outsider!
The divine realm was immediately thrown into chaos; the elders, the palace masters, the holy maidens, and all the major commanders were filled with fear and unease.

No one knows what this powerful demon who stormed into the divine realm intends to do. Is it to take over the divine realm and become a new god? Or is it to plunder the divine treasures?

"My lord has succeeded!"

Fairy Qing Shi and the others were overjoyed. The fact that the array diagram did not help the old god meant that he had already recognized Lin Yu. The number one killing array in history was finally going to fall into their hands!
"Let's go, follow me into the God Realm!"

At Lin Yu's command, he took the lead and flew towards the center of the Divine Realm, with Fairy Qing Shi and the others following behind without hesitation.

The temple knights who had originally come to fight the demons looked at each other in confusion, and finally, at the signal of an elder, they silently followed.

The center of the divine realm, which should have been a sacred place shrouded in auspicious clouds and galloping mythical beasts, was now enveloped in a suffocatingly solemn atmosphere.

Inside an ancient temple, all the elders, temple masters, and leaders gathered together.

"Should we... worship that god-slayer as our new god?" an elder god asked with difficulty.

"He's a foreigner, and he even killed our god!" Another temple master slammed his fist on the table and stood up. "We should choose a new god according to the divine decree and punish this scoundrel!"

"But he gained the approval of the Supreme Artifact."

These words plunged the hall into deathly silence once more. Everyone understood that this was the key. If the array diagram had not betrayed them, how could even a god-slayer as powerful as them have resisted the supreme artifact?

"Why? He's clearly not from the realm of gods."

Everyone was baffled. Although there had been bloody power shifts in the history of the Divine Realm, this situation had never occurred before: an outsider not only killed a god but also gained the recognition of the Supreme Artifact.

Just as the debate was raging, the temple doors suddenly burst open.

Lin Yu stood with his hands behind his back, with a spiritual treasure array slowly unfolding behind him. The phantoms of the Four Swords of Zhuxian appeared and disappeared in the array, exuding a murderous aura that made all living beings tremble.

"From this day forward," Lin Yu's voice was not loud, but it clearly resounded throughout every corner of the Divine Realm, "I am the Lord of the Divine Realm."

Throughout the divine realm, all the elders who witnessed this scene were horrified.

"A supreme artifact has actually willingly recognized a master?!"

An old man with white hair staggered backward, almost falling to the ground.

Throughout history, when gods were appointed, new gods had to undergo a long ritual to gain the recognition of the divine artifacts; there has never been a precedent of a formation diagram voluntarily surrendering.

"Could it be..." The Holy Maiden of the Divine Realm's beautiful eyes trembled, "that he is the true heir to the divine throne?"

This thought struck like a thunderbolt, exploding in everyone's hearts.

If that's the case, then what is the old god?
What are these monks who have served the divine realm for generations?
The array slowly rotated, dropping billions of chaotic energies, within which the phantoms of the Four Swords of Zhuxian floated, each radiating a killing intent that would make even a quasi-emperor tremble.

This ancient supreme artifact, at this moment, was as joyful as a child, circling around Lin Yu.

……

With this, Lin Yu officially entered the God Realm and became the new ruler.

The news swept across the divine realm like a storm, shaking the world.

Although many people had a premonition when the old god was defeated, it still caused a huge uproar when the "extraterrestrial demon" actually ascended to the divine position.

Devout believers could not accept this fact, and large-scale rebellions broke out in various parts of the divine realm. Even though news of the supreme artifact recognizing its master spread, unrest continued to erupt.

Lin Yu's men showed no mercy, mobilizing the divine army in the name of God to ruthlessly suppress the rebellion.

Amidst blood and fire, the divine realm gradually fell silent, but the chilling atmosphere that permeated the air made everyone tremble with fear.

“The new god’s ascension to the throne is illegitimate; I fear the divine realm will never have peace,” an old man sighed, gazing at the blood-stained street.

Sure enough, in the days that followed, Fairy Qing Shi, the Six-Eared Macaque, and others went on conquests everywhere, slaughtering all those who harbored rebellious intentions.

All ethnic groups remained silent, strictly ordering their members to be careful with their words and actions, lest they bring about the extermination of their entire clan.

At this moment, Lin Yu had already stepped into the most sacred forbidden area of ​​the Divine Realm, the Ancient Mountain of Life.

On the mountaintop shrouded in chaotic mist, a divine image slowly rotated, radiating a pressure that could shatter the heavens. This place was usually guarded by a supreme artifact, and only gods were allowed to set foot here.

The life essence on the mountain is so rich that it becomes tangible, like a crystal-clear stream flowing through the mountains.

A tree resembling dragon scales stands atop the mountain, its branches and trunk as vigorous as a coiled dragon, its leaves as green as celestial gold. It is the legendary elixir of immortality—the Tree of Life.
