"it's over!"
Seeing this, Lin Yun whispered.
"Buzz~"
A massive force of domain power spread out in all directions, then suddenly contracted. The countless pieces of flesh and blood that the middle-aged man had exploded from also suddenly converged towards Lin Yun's direction, leaving no one behind.
If this were outside of this universe, Lin Yun's current strength might not be enough to guarantee that he could do this. However, within this universe, given Lin Yun's strong connection with it, doing so would be effortless for him.
If this middle-aged man hadn't self-destructed, he could have withstood a few of his attacks, but now he didn't need to do a single one.
However, there is no difference; it's just a matter of dying a little earlier or a little later.
No, no.
The middle-aged man sensed this and roared in terror, causing countless pieces of flesh and blood to vibrate in the space.
His spirituality had shattered into countless fragments. Once Lin Yun completely destroyed them, it would mean utter death, with no chance of even being reincarnated.
"Buzz~ Buzz~"
However, Lin Yun ignored the other party and released a dazzling crimson light from the Blood Prison Sword in his hand. Countless pieces of flesh and blood were thrown into it, making the light on the Blood Prison Sword even more dazzling.
In his previous life, when he was the Blood Emperor, he slaughtered countless living beings and ghost cultivators, numbering in the hundreds of millions. If he had listened to every single person who begged for mercy, he would have been exhausted long ago.
"This sword...this sword...seems very similar to the Blood Prison Sword used by the Blood Emperor of the Netherworld. Indeed, it grows stronger the more it is fought. This is a technique that the Blood Emperor of the Netherworld also possesses. You...what is your relationship with that Blood Emperor of the Netherworld?"
Just then, the middle-aged man's terrified voice rang out again.
As the countless fragments of his spirit were refined by the Blood Prison Sword, he became more aware of the sword's power. At the same time, he remembered where he had seen the sword's power before.
The Blood Emperor of the Netherworld… I actually saw this ability with the Blood Emperor of the Netherworld…
However, he did not witness that battle firsthand, but saw it later through video footage. Even so, he could still sense the terrifying power of the Blood Emperor of the Netherworld in that battle.
Perhaps it was because he saw it through a video that he didn't immediately think of it.
He never dared to imagine that the Blood Prison Sword used by Lin Yun was the same sword of the Blood Emperor of the Netherworld.
The Blood Emperor of the Netherworld is incredibly powerful. Even in the Great World of Living Beings, he is a top-tier existence. Unless a legendary god-level expert appears, it is estimated that no one can suppress him.
It is said that the overall strength of the Netherworld is far inferior to that of the Great World of Living Beings, and that Blood Emperor's strength in the Netherworld is second to none.
Under these circumstances, the Blood Emperor of the Netherworld would be in almost no danger.
The human boy before him, though powerful and exceptionally talented, was still far inferior to the Blood Emperor of the Netherworld. One was a legendary figure from the Netherworld, a cultivator from hundreds of millions of years ago, while the other was a very young human. The Blood Emperor's Blood Prison Sword was unlikely to fall into the hands of this human boy.
However, he always felt that this human boy might have some connection with the Blood Emperor of the Netherworld.
"Um?"
Lin Yun's brows twitched slightly.
Back when he was the Blood Emperor, he didn't appear in the Great World of Living Beings very often because he knew that the strong people in the Great World of Living Beings were not so simple. Although he was strong, he was no match for the experts in the God Realm.
Those powerful beings at the Divine Realm do not appear in the outside world due to their cultivation environment, but that does not mean they will not appear. If they encounter each other, it will be extremely dangerous.
He had no recollection of this middle-aged man, whether he was the Blood Emperor or the Ling Tian, but he never expected that the other party would know his name as the Blood Emperor, the Blood Prison Sword, and his abilities when using the Blood Prison Sword.
"You know about the Blood Emperor?"
To prevent accidental injury, Lin Yun stopped what he was doing and asked a question.
"The Blood Emperor of the Netherworld, one of the nine supreme beings of the Netherworld, is renowned throughout the Great World of Living Beings as a ghost cultivator. How could I not know him? I never expected that you would possess the abilities of the Blood Emperor. If I had known earlier, I would never have been your enemy!" The middle-aged man was surprised that Lin Yun would stop at this moment. The remaining flesh and blood resonated in the space, and he spoke slowly.
"My lord, I truly had no intention of being your enemy this time. Now, I have learned my lesson, so please spare me. I am not only willing to offer up all my wealth, but I am also willing to tell you about an incredible opportunity..." The middle-aged man hurriedly said again, his tone full of pleading.
Finally, the other party gave him another chance to speak, and he seized it tightly.
"Oh? You're not planning to send your friends and family to take revenge? That's what you said earlier!" Lin Yun said with a slightly provocative tone.
He killed the middle-aged man to obtain his power. At this moment, the middle-aged man had been reduced to only a little bit of power.
Even if you kill them all completely, you won't gain much power.
If you weren't determined to kill the snake, you could let it go.
Mainly, it was the extraordinary opportunity the middle-aged man mentioned that caught his attention.
This middle-aged man is a cultivator at the superior Saint King realm. Even in the Great World of Living Beings, where the God realm does not appear, he is still a very high-level existence. What he calls a great opportunity must not be a simple one.
Based on his spiritual perception, the great opportunity that the middle-aged man spoke of must be no ordinary one.
That's why he talked to the middle-aged man a few more times. If the middle-aged man could really offer him a great opportunity that interested him, he wouldn't mind letting him go.
He didn't even consider a superior Saint King cultivator a threat.
Even if he has powerful relatives or friends, if they dare to seek revenge, he will kill them all.
This provided him, the Blood Prison Sword, and even the group of people around him with power.
He just needs to be careful for a while to prevent these people from hurting the people around him.
"A divine spark! I found a divine spark in a certain space... However, the spatial turbulence in that space is too powerful, so I can't enter and haven't been able to put it away! I can tell you about that place!" The middle-aged man seemed to grit his teeth as he spoke.
The divine spark is said to be the essence and core of a cultivator in the divine realm. Whoever obtains the divine spark can become the next cultivator in the divine realm. No wonder he hesitated to tell Lin Yun about it.
Cultivators in the Divine Realm are beings who surpass even the peak Saint Kings. They command the world, and none dare disobey them. From the Great World of Living Beings to the Netherworld, even the legendary Blood Emperor of the Netherworld, whose strength is terrifying, must obey their orders.
Such a great temptation, just one step away from him, how could he be willing to tell the enemy like this?
But... now his life is in danger...
To save his life, he didn't hesitate to reveal this secret!
Originally, he planned to send this secret to a relative or friend... Even if he perished in this universe, that relative or friend could avenge him after becoming a god... He just couldn't bear to do it for the time being...
By the time he was willing to give it up, he no longer had the ability to transmit his voice!
Of course, he was also afraid when facing death!
His spirit shattered into countless pieces. Once he died, he was truly dead, with no chance of reincarnation!
He was scared!
“By the way…you might not know what a divine spark is…a divine spark is…” Just then, the middle-aged man suddenly remembered something and quickly continued.
In the vast world of living beings, a divine spark is an absolute treasure. He didn't believe that anyone who knew the importance of a divine spark wouldn't be tempted.
However, the worst-case scenario is that the enemy doesn't know what a divine spark is, and might mistake it for an unimportant treasure, then kill him with a single sword strike, in which case he would die unjustly.
"Oh? You know there's a divine spark within a space?" At this moment, Lin Yun raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised.
He was genuinely surprised. Divine sparks were indeed extremely precious. When a cultivator at the Divine Realm killed another cultivator at the Divine Realm, the most valuable item they could obtain was probably that divine spark.
Because a divine spark can indeed create a new divine realm cultivator. When a cultivator refines a divine spark, he becomes the new master of that divine spark, the new divine realm cultivator.
However, once that cultivator did that, he had no potential to advance any further.
There are also levels of divinity, unless he refines a higher level of divinity in the future.
Lin Yun was genuinely surprised to find a divine spark in a space. If that divine realm cultivator had been killed by another divine realm cultivator, there was no reason why he wouldn't want that divine spark. Perhaps there was some other reason.
"You know about divinity?" This time, it was the middle-aged man who was surprised. He really didn't expect that this human boy would know about divinity. Because he had realized that the universe had just had its last layer broken, and this human boy might not have come into contact with the Great World of Living Beings, let alone know about the legendary Divine Realm cultivators, or even more legendary divinity.
“I know about the divine spark, of course. Tell me where you saw it, and I’ll spare your life,” Lin Yun said calmly, nodding slightly.
What a joke! He was once the crown prince of the gods. If he doesn't know about divinity, then probably very few people in the entire world would know about it.
He knew far more about divinity than the middle-aged man before him.
"Could it be..." At this moment, the middle-aged man already knew that if the other party did not let him go, he would not be able to escape no matter what. So, while talking to Lin Yun, he began to gradually gather the surrounding flesh and blood and reassemble a body. At this time, the body had been almost assembled. Hearing Lin Yun's words, his whole body trembled violently.
This universe has just had its last layer broken and has not yet come into contact with the outside world. How could this human boy know about divinity...? You should know that even among the many Saint Kings in the Great World of Living Beings, not many know about it.
He discovered the divine nature of the divine being, vaguely sensing that it was not simple, and only after researching a lot of information did he realize it.
An answer gradually emerged in his mind: Could it be that the other party was the reincarnation of some powerful being, which is why they knew these things... And since the other party knew these things in their previous life, they were probably not a simple person, and their strength was most likely even greater than his.
He had actually thought that the opponent's combat awareness and reaction were far inferior to his own; how naive he was.
Furthermore, the opponent has the ability to grow stronger with each battle; his previous attack on the opponent was truly courting death.
At that moment, the middle-aged man felt regret once again.
"I'll tell you the spatial location of that divine spark, no problem, but you have to swear that once you know, you must let me go," the middle-aged man said through gritted teeth.
Now that the other party knows what a godhood is, things are easier. Godhood is extremely precious, so perhaps he can use the whereabouts of a godhood to ask the other party to do something.
"Perhaps, I no longer need to give my wealth to the other party. In fact, I can let the other party give me some wealth. After all, once I obtain a godhood, I am very likely to become a new god realm cultivator. Once I become a new god realm cultivator, what can't I have..." The middle-aged man thought to himself.
"laugh!"
"boom"
However, before the middle-aged man could finish his thought, a blood-red light appeared before his eyes, and the next moment, his entire body exploded.
"You...you actually dared to kill me...could it be that you don't want that divine spark anymore?" This sword strike extinguished most of the middle-aged man's already dwindling life force, and the middle-aged man's terrified voice rang out.
"I think you're not quite clear on one thing: you're the one begging me, not the other way around..." Lin Yun's calm voice rang out.
He wanted to obtain that divine spark because he wanted to know what was behind it. Many years had passed, and he had been unaware of what had happened between the gods and the new gods for a long time.
He wanted to see if he could learn anything from it.
However, that doesn't mean he absolutely needs to know or possess that divine spark.
Make him swear an oath?
His vows are not easily made.
Even if he absolutely would do what the middle-aged man asked, it still wouldn't work!
"If you obtain a divine spark, you will have the opportunity to become a new divine realm cultivator. That is an existence even more powerful than a peak Saint King. From the Great World of Living Beings to the Netherworld, no one will dare to disobey your word. Don't you want to become a new divine realm cultivator, don't you want to become such a powerful being?" the middle-aged man said in horror.
At this moment, he even began to doubt whether this human boy knew about divinity or its importance, since he had even spoken about divinity and its function.
"Humans are divided into different classes, and so are gods. Refining a godhead can certainly make one a god-level cultivator, but one can no longer advance. A godhead is nothing to me. As for you, I wonder if you still want this chance to live?" Lin Yun glanced at the middle-aged man's flesh and blood that had been reassembled and said slowly.
