Deep in the void, Ye Chen and Lu Qiong exchanged a glance, both seeing the resolute determination in each other's eyes.
Taking the initiative to ban the other six Tier 6 survivors with SSS-level talents, even though they were also SSS-level talents themselves, still made them feel unprecedented pressure.
"Less than ten minutes."
A hint of seriousness flashed in Ye Chen's dark purple eyes.
"Even with our newly enhanced power, the two of us can only hold them off for less than ten minutes at most."
"After that... we can only rely on the five of them."
Lu Qiong gripped the Ordering Staff tightly, golden runes swirling around him: "Ten minutes should be enough. If those five can't defeat Lin Xiao within ten minutes, then this battle... is pointless to continue."
Without further hesitation, the two simultaneously unleashed their full power to activate their innate authority!
"Void Realm - Absolute Cage!"
Ye Chen's figure completely vanished, replaced by an absolute void space with a diameter of 100,000 kilometers.
This space is not simply darkness, but a conceptual nothingness.
There is no matter, no energy, no rules, and even the flow of time is suppressed to the point of near stagnation.
The moment the Void Cage unfolded, it forcibly enveloped Zhuge Duo, Zhao Da, Bobo Sha, Mary Keith, Yun Xi, and Xing Yan!
"Law Modification - This Domain Imprisoned!"
Lu Qiong followed closely behind, raising his staff high, and countless golden chains of law extended from the void, intertwining and entwining with the Void Cage.
He modified the fundamental rules within the cage.
"First Prohibition: Spatial displacement is forbidden!"
"Second Prohibition: Rules must not be shared externally!"
"The third prohibition: Energy resonance is forbidden!"
The triple prohibitions overlapped, leaving the six trapped individuals with virtually no possibility of cooperating.
They were separated into different areas of a void prison, their senses cut off from each other, making even telepathy extremely difficult.
"not good!"
Zhuge Duo's expression changed drastically, and the threads of fate surged wildly around her, trying to find the weak point of the cage.
But the void cage itself has no structure, and therefore no weaknesses in the traditional sense.
Her fate struck nothingness, like a fist hitting the air, with most of its power absorbed by the conceptual void.
Zhao Da took it a step further, condensing countless flying swords into a giant galaxy sword a million kilometers long, and slashing fiercely at the prison walls!
"Sword Immortal's True Intent - Breaking Boundaries!"
The power of this sword strike was enough to tear apart stars, but it seemed pale and powerless in the face of the Void Cage.
The moment the sword touched the barrier, the runes on the sword began to dissolve rapidly, and the sword itself was erased from the conceptual level.
Nothingness is not a defense, but a dissolution.
Any attack, the moment it touches nothingness, will be reduced to its most primitive concept of existence, and then assimilated into nothingness.
"A cage at the level of rules..."
Xingyan held the crystal ball, his expression somewhat solemn.
"Ye Chen completely transformed himself into nothingness, while Lu Qiong reinforced it with the prohibition of laws."
"In this state, they are constantly consuming energy, and the consumption is enormous!"
Just as Xingyan said, outside the Void Cage, Ye Chen and Lu Qiong's true forms floated in the void, their auras weakening at a visible rate.
Ye Chen's deep purple eyes gradually dimmed, and cracks began to appear on Lu Qiong's golden robe.
Maintaining a cage that simultaneously imprisons six people of the same rank is a near-suicidal burden for them.
Hang in there.
Lu Qiong gritted his teeth, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, "As long as they can deal with Lin Xiao over there..."
Inside the void cage, PPSh had tried dozens of heavy weapon attacks, from antimatter singularity cannons to dimensional tearing bullets, but all the attacks sank to the bottom of the void barrier.
Mary Keys' mist attempted to erode the cage from within, but nothingness can even dissolve existence; the mist was assimilated and dissipated the moment it approached the barrier.
Yunxi's power of creation did create a vibrant garden within the cage, but the edges of the garden were constantly being eroded by the void, and she had to continuously output her power of creation to keep the garden from collapsing.
The calmest of the six was Xingyan, who held a crystal ball in his hand, with fragments of the future rapidly flashing before his eyes.
"Found it."
Seven minutes later, Xingyan suddenly spoke.
"The Void Cage is not perfect—Ye Chen must maintain self-awareness to manipulate the Void, and self-awareness itself is a form of existence."
"At the core of the cage, there is a consciousness node with a diameter of less than one meter, which is the only place that can be attacked."
"But the Law of the Void restricts the release of rules, so we cannot attack that node remotely," Zhuge Duo said, frowning.
"Then let's fight in close combat."
Zhao Da's eyes narrowed, and the countless flying swords retracted, condensing into a sword armor around him: "I'll send you there."
"No need for that." PPSh grinned, and a strangely shaped cannon barrel appeared behind him. "Spatial Anchor Cannon, specializing in hitting coordinate points—give me the node's location!"
Xingyan transmitted the coordinates to everyone through mental fluctuations.
The next second, all six of them attacked at the same time!
Zhao Da's sword armor unleashed extreme speed, ignoring the resistance of nothingness and rushing straight towards the consciousness node.
Zhuge Duo's threads of fate are wrapped around Zhao Da, increasing his chances of success.
Yunxi's power of creation created a temporary passage in front of Zhao Da.
Mary Keyes's fog transformed into shadows, concealing Zhao Da's actions.
Meanwhile, PPSh's space anchoring cannon has already locked onto the node, and the muzzle has begun charging!
"Stop them!"
Lu Qiong's expression changed drastically. He frantically waved his staff, trying to modify the law again, but maintaining the triple prohibition had already pushed him to his limit. At this moment, trying to add more restrictions directly triggered a backlash from the law!
"Pfft—" Lu Qiong spat out a mouthful of blood, and the cracks on his golden robe spread all over his body.
Ye Chen's void cage also began to tremble, and subtle fluctuations appeared at the nodes of his consciousness.
At that very moment—
"Now!" PPSh roared, and the Space Anchor Cannon fired!
A beam of silver light ignored the barrier of nothingness and accurately struck the node of consciousness.
At the same time, Zhao Da's sword armor also reached the node position, and billions of sword intents suddenly erupted!
"Click—"
The first crack appeared in the void cage.
Ye Chen let out a muffled groan, his dark purple eyes dimmed completely, his figure was forced out of the void, and his face was as pale as paper.
A crack also appeared in the order of Lu Qiong's staff, and the golden runes began to disintegrate.
The two looked at each other and saw the bitterness in each other's eyes.
They tried their best, but only managed to trap the six people for nine minutes and seventeen seconds.
These three minutes are already the absolute limit.
------
While Ye Chen and Lü Qiong were struggling to hold on, on another battlefield, the real decisive battle had already begun.
Revolving Wheel, Burning Heaven, Fiery Radiance, Azure Profound, Primordial Chaos.
A total of five SSS-level Tier 6 survivors surrounded Lin Xiao in a pentagonal shape.
The oppressive aura emanating from the five individuals caused the void within a million miles to groan in agony. Distant stardust was crushed into elementary particles by the invisible force field, and even light was strangely distorted as it approached the edge of the battlefield.
"Lin Xiao!"
Holding the Samsara Staff, the gray-black power of Samsara condensed behind him into six slowly rotating doors.
"We're giving you one last chance—admit defeat and relinquish your number one position, and we might spare your life. Otherwise, the Eternal Alliance you've built will be utterly destroyed!"
Flames of destruction burned on the crimson armor of the Blazing Sky warrior, who grinned, revealing gleaming white teeth: "Or, let me burn you to ashes with my own hands."
Yan Huang's five-colored robes fluttered without wind, and five-element halos intertwined above his head: "Your rule system is very interesting. I will study its remains carefully."
Cang Xuan's golden armor gleamed with an immortal luster, and his voice was ancient and indifferent: "After suppressing you, I will incorporate your alliance. Rest assured, all your alliance members will become my subordinates!"
The primordial chaos churned endlessly, its seven-colored pupils blazing with excited madness: "Let's begin! I can't wait to shatter your order!"
Surrounded by five people, Lin Xiao merely straightened his sleeves, as if the people in front of him were not five powerful individuals of the same level, but five insignificant obstacles.
"Now that you've finished your nonsense," he looked up, a glint of iridescent light flashing in his eyes, "let's begin!"
Before the words were even finished, all five of them attacked at the same time!
"Reincarnation - Six Paths Suppression!"
With a flick of the Wheel-Turning Staff, the six gates of the universe simultaneously opened: the thunder of the heavens, the desires of humanity, the murderous intent of the Asuras, the bestial nature of animals, the hunger and thirst of hungry ghosts, and the tortures of hell.
Six kinds of rules targeting the soul surged towards Lin Xiao like a tsunami, as always, each one enough to shatter the soul of an ordinary sixth-level cultivator!
"Destruction - World-Burning Forge!"
The two fists of the Burning Heaven collided, and the pure rules of destruction transformed into a dark red furnace with a diameter of 100,000 kilometers, which enveloped the entire void where Lin Xiao was!
Inside the furnace, all concepts of existence are being burned and annihilated, even space itself is melting!
"The Five Elements: Mutual Restraint Formation!"
Yan Huang formed hand seals, and the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth suddenly expanded, transforming into a deadly array that covered the entire battlefield.
Metal overcomes Wood, Wood overcomes Earth, Earth overcomes Water, Water overcomes Fire, and Fire overcomes Metal.
The reverse cycle of the five elements' mutual restraint unleashed a destructive force far exceeding that of their mutual generation, with five-colored energy tides pressing towards Lin Xiao from all directions!
"Immortal - Time-Space Imprisonment!"
The runes on the Azure Golden Armor lit up one by one, and spacetime within a hundred meters almost froze.
This is not simply slowing down; it strips away the concept of motion from the very rule level!
The space around Lin Xiao became denser than the matter of a neutron star, and the flow of time was suppressed to one ten-thousandth!
"Chaos - Disorder Collapse!"
Hongmeng opened his arms, unleashing the full power of his chaotic domain.
With him at the center, all existing rules began to descend into chaos.
The direction of gravity changes randomly, the electromagnetic force sometimes strengthens and sometimes disappears, the balance between the strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force is broken, and even the speed of light becomes inconsistent in different regions!
This is an attack at the level of physical constants; any ability that relies on rules to function will fail!
The five-fold attack, the ultimate manifestation of five SSS-level talents, struck Lin Xiao's location almost simultaneously!
The void was completely torn apart, revealing the boiling dimensional turbulence below.
The explosion's light temporarily blinded the sixth-order observers hidden in the surrounding void, and the energy aftershocks swept across the distance of several star systems.
If this attack were to hit the solar system, the entire galaxy would instantly be reduced to a cloud of elementary particles.
Indeed, Lin Xiao and his group's battle was being observed by many beings of the same or even higher ranks.
Besides some familiar Celestial Venerables, the Golden King, and the Cloud Yin Clan Chief, there were also some unfamiliar figures conducting observations.
Of course, they also heard Burning Heaven's insults towards the Misty World.
however--
As the light faded, Lin Xiao remained suspended in the same spot.
Even the hem of his clothes wasn't torn.
"How is this possible?!" Fen Tian's pupils shrank sharply.
Even some seventh-tier experts wouldn't dare to take a direct hit from the combined attack of the five people. How could Lin Xiao possibly be unharmed?
"Omniscient rules, able to see through all patterns."
"To manifest the rules of all things and create targeted defenses."
"Integrating the rules of all things to perfectly unify defense."
As Lin Xiao spoke, he raised his right hand, and a fist-sized, seven-colored crystal appeared in his palm.
Inside the crystal, countless regular runes flowed endlessly.
"Your attacks are indeed powerful, but the moment they were launched, I saw all the energy trajectories, the rules governing them, and their weaknesses."
"Then, I created this—"
"All Things Return to the Flow - Omniscient Defense Matrix"
Lin Xiao no longer needs to hide his talent.
With a flash of light from the crystal, countless seven-colored threads spread out from Lin Xiao's body, weaving into a three-dimensional network covering his entire body in the void.
Every node on the network is flashing, and every thread contains different rules and characteristics.
The six impacts of the spinning wheel were neutralized by six different targeted rules the instant they touched the network.
The Heavenly Thunder was absorbed by the concept of insulation, human desires were purified by the rules of purity, and the Asura's killing intent was neutralized by the realm of peace...
In reality, the skill of the Spirit Pillar alone can greatly reduce the attack targeting the soul.
As the Burning Heaven's Destruction Furnace approached the network, countless tiny energy diversion nodes channeled its destructive power to different dimensions.
Just like a flood encountering a dam riddled with holes, its power is dispersed to the point of being almost negligible.
Yan Huang's Five Elements Absolute Array experienced a rule conflict the moment it touched the network.
Lin Xiao embedded a positive cycle of mutual generation of the five elements into the network, which clashed with Yan Huang's reverse cycle, causing the two forces to annihilate each other.
Lin Xiao knows Yan Huang's abilities better than anyone else.
Whether it's the Ever-Changing Ring or David, the SSS-level survivor from the Wind Domain whom Lin Xiao encountered a long time ago, elemental attacks are almost effortless for Lin Xiao to defend against.
The spatial and temporal constraints imposed on Cangxuan were forcibly broken by the rules imposed by movement within the network.
Lin Xiao created an absolute concept of motion around himself; even if time and space were frozen, he could still move at the conceptual level.
This was also thanks to the master of space and causality, which gave Lin Xiao a great understanding of this type of talent.
The most challenging aspect, the chaotic disorder of the primordial chaos, is restrained by the stable anchor points of the rules within the network.
With the aid of the omniscient rules, Lin Xiao accurately located the regions of physical constants that remained stable within the chaotic domain, and used these regions as anchor points to construct a defensive zone unaffected by chaos.
Lin Xiao perfectly neutralized the five-fold attack.
