Survival for All: I can deconstruct projections and synthesize everything.

In the void, three figures were silently suspended, completely blocking Lin Xiao's path.

The figure in the middle was the most eye-catching. It was a young man who looked to be no more than thirty years old. He had a handsome face, skin that was so white it was almost transparent, and a pair of eyes that were as deep as the void, as if they could devour all light.

He wore a long black robe embroidered with countless fine silver runes. These runes constantly appeared and disappeared, each appearance and disappearance causing a slight tremor in the void.

Behind him, a faint, ethereal shadow slowly shifted; that was his divine kingdom—the Void Divine Kingdom.

Eighth rank.

Deep Space, leader of the ninth branch of the Dark Eclipse Cult.

On the left side of deep space stood a burly middle-aged man.

His body was surrounded by crimson flames, a fire capable of incinerating all matter and energy.

His eyes were dark red, like two burning embers, staring intently at Lin Xiao.

Seventh rank.

The Ninth Branch Sect's Vice Leader, Flame Demon.

On the right side of deep space stood a gaunt old man.

His body was surrounded by bluish-gray wind rules. These winds were not ordinary winds, but void storms at the level of rules, powerful enough to tear everything apart.

His eyes were gray, and his pupils seemed to contain endless storms swirling within them.

Seventh rank.

The Ninth Branch's Deputy Leader, Feng Sha.

Three powerful individuals, three beings capable of destroying the world.

At this moment, they all stood in front of Lin Xiao.

Shen Kong looked at Lin Xiao, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Alliance Leader Lin Xiao." His voice was deep and hoarse, like an echo in the void, "We've been waiting for you for a long time."

Lin Xiao looked at him quietly, her expression calm as still water.

The omniscient rules were operating at full power, capturing every trace of the three's presence and every possible flaw.

"Waiting for me?" he said softly. "Did you know I would come back from here?"

Deep Space nodded: "Of course."

He raised his right hand, palm up, and a black crystal appeared in his palm.

The crystal was completely black, with strange, undulating patterns flowing across its surface.

"This is a crystal bestowed by His Majesty," Deep Space said slowly. "It can foretell everything related to His Majesty."

"And your existence has long been noticed by His Majesty."

"Your Majesty knew the moment you left the Misty World."

"Where did you go, what did you do, what did you encounter—"

"Your Majesty is fully aware."

Lin Xiao's pupils contracted slightly.

God of the Mist...

He had been watching him all along.

The pretense of cause and effect is indeed useless!

Shen Kong looked at him, his mockery growing stronger.

"You think you can escape His Majesty's grasp?"

He said softly.

"Do you think that by gathering the Five Elements Soul Domains and evolving the Divine Kingdom into a miniature universe, you can stand against Your Majesty?"

"ridiculous."

"That's absolutely ridiculous."

Lin Xiao didn't speak, she just looked at him quietly.

Deep Space continued, "His Majesty's will has been largely awakened. His command is clear—"

"Delete the Eternal Alliance."

"Eliminate all forces associated with the Eternal Alliance."

"as well as--"

He paused, his gaze turning cold.

"We'll capture you alive, Lin Xiao."

"Capture alive?"

Lin Xiao frowned slightly.

Deep Space nodded: "That's right, capture him alive."

"Your Majesty is very interested in you. A survivor who has grown to this level in less than a year, who can make an old guy like the Golden King risk his life for you, and who can make those ants from the Rainbow Cloud Clan and the Fire Soul Domain flock to you—"

"Your Majesty wishes to know what secrets you hold."

"His Majesty, however, speculates that the secret might be related to what he has been doing all along!"

Lin Xiao fell silent.

The omniscient rule is still in operation, but it's no longer just about capturing information.

He was calculating.

Calculate the difference in combat power between the two sides, calculate the success rate of escape, and calculate all possible variables.

Shen Kong looked at him, as if he could see right through his thoughts.

"Trying to escape?" he said softly, the mockery at the corner of his mouth growing stronger.

"Do you think you can escape from the three of us?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Void Divine Kingdom behind him suddenly unfolded.

That divine kingdom was enormous, covering the void for millions of miles around.

Within the divine realm, there was nothing but emptiness, nothing at all, only endless darkness and countless eerie void rifts.

Those cracks kept appearing and disappearing, each time devouring everything around them.

Lin Xiao sensed that the surrounding void was solidifying.

That was the suppression of the void rules, the power of an eighth-order divine kingdom.

He wanted to escape, but it was as if countless invisible chains in the void bound his body tightly.

The Flame Demon and the Wind Demon also moved at the same time.

The Flame Demon's incinerating fire surged around him, transforming into a massive ring of fire that blocked all of Lin Xiao's escape routes to the left.

The Void Storm of Wind Fiend condensed around him, transforming into three enormous tornadoes that blocked all of Lin Xiao's escape routes to the right.

The three of them worked together to block all possible escape routes for Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao remained suspended in place, quietly watching everything unfold.

His expression remained calm, as if he were the one being surrounded, not him.

A hint of surprise flashed in Deep Space's eyes.

"Aren't you afraid?" he asked.

Lin Xiao shook her head.

"Fear?" he said softly. "From the first day I entered the Misty World, I have never known what fear is."

"Even the leader of the Dark Eclipse Cult has been killed!"

"I've fought someone at the eighth rank before."

"What are the three of you anyway?"

Deep Space frowned slightly.

He sensed that this Lin Xiao was not quite the same as he had imagined.

Despite being surrounded by three powerful figures and suppressed by an eighth-tier divine kingdom, he was still able to remain so calm.

This kind of mentality is indeed remarkable.

But the more this is the case, the less we can allow him to leave unharmed.

Deep Space took a deep breath and raised his right hand.

The power of the Void God Kingdom condensed in his palm, transforming into a massive Void Blade.

The blade was invisible and intangible, yet it exuded a chilling aura.

"Lin Xiao," he said slowly, "I'll ask you one last time—"

"Are you going to surrender, or do we have to take action?"

Lin Xiao looked at him, a slight smile playing on her lips.

The smile was calm, yet it carried a hint of unspeakable mockery.

"Surrender?"

He said softly.

"Are you worthy?"

As soon as he finished speaking, seven-colored light surged wildly from his body.

The rules of the true self of all things are operating at full capacity, mobilizing all available power.

The light gathered around him, transforming into countless beams of light that hovered in the void.

Each lightsaber was aimed at an enemy.

A cold glint flashed in Deep Space's eyes.

"court death."

He spoke softly, and the Void Blade in his hand suddenly slashed down.

The Flame Demon and the Wind Demon also moved at the same time.

The scorching fire and the void storm swept in from both sides.

Three attacks simultaneously blasted towards Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao hovered in place, watching the three attacks getting closer and closer, without fear in his eyes.

Only peace.

as well as--

A barely perceptible smile appeared.

come on.

Let me see just how strong you lackeys of the Dark Eclipse Order really are.

He raised his right hand and gently waved it forward.

Countless beams of light shot out simultaneously, meeting the three attacks head-on.

The sword light clashed with the blade of the void, with the incinerating fire, and with the void storm.

In that instant, the entire void trembled violently.

The light was so dazzling, and the rules so violent, that even the distant mist barrier trembled slightly.

I don't know how much time passed.

The light dissipated.

Lin Xiao remained suspended in place.

He had several wounds on his body, and a trickle of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.

But he was still standing.

still alive.

Shen Kong looked at him, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes.

"You..." he said softly, "You actually managed to withstand a combined attack from the three of us?"

Lin Xiao wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

"That's all?"

He said softly.

"Too weak."

Deep Space's expression changed.

He sensed that Lin Xiao was much stronger than he had imagined.

Even without a divine kingdom, it was able to withstand a combined attack from the three of them.

If we let him return to the Misty World, if we let him reclaim the Divine Kingdom—

The consequences could be disastrous.

Shen Kong took a deep breath, a resolute glint in his eyes.

"Go all out," he said in a deep voice. "Take him down at all costs!"

The Flame Demon and the Wind Demon nodded simultaneously, unleashing their full power of rules.

The three attacked again, this time without holding back.

Lin Xiao looked at them and took a deep breath.

He knew that the real battle was only just beginning.
