Tremble wrestled with his options, fearing exposure if he attacked Lin Yi. Meanwhile, Drought Demon was overwhelmed by mysterious giant arms attacking from the void, suffering damage and demanding help from the other Corpse Kings. Lin Yi's clones retreated to safety as the assault continued, leaving Drought Demon battered but defiant. Enraged, Drought Demon's flames turned black, and the Eastern War God ordered his subordinates to help her deal with Lin Yi's clones, who then began chanting a spell.

"Damn, this kid is skilled in those kinds of techniques too?"

The laser cannon shot directly from the sky, covering a vast area.

The [Positioning Laser Cannon]’s coverage area is already large, and the time from casting to execution is very short, making evasion almost impossible.

On top of that, with the [Chaos at the Beginning] multi-casting divine skill, Lin Yi’s single clone can release 4-12 laser cannons in one casting, expanding the area of effect several times over.

Now, with five clones casting the skill simultaneously, they opted not to concentrate the multiple laser cannons on the same spot to increase damage, but instead chose to spread them across different locations, covering the entire battlefield.

The fighting positions of the Four Corpse Kings were scattered.

It’s not that they chose not to stick together, but because the experts of Dark Rising, during their attacks, used skills that caused displacement to separate these four monsters, making it easier to defeat them one by one.

As the distance widened, the battlefield grew larger and larger. If the four-area battlefield were to be seen as a circle, it would have a radius of 20 kilometers.

Such a large battlefield facilitated the entry of more Dark Rising experts, joining forces to attack the Four Corpse Kings.

When the experts from Dark Rising saw that the giant hands had stopped their slapping, they thought about returning to the battlefield to continue attacking the Four Corpse Kings. Little did they know that Lin Yi’s astonishing move was yet to come.

Whether they were the warriors of Dark Rising or the elite brought by the Eastern War God, their inner shock while witnessing this scene was no less than if a divine soldier were to press an Immortal King to the ground.

That was an area of hundreds of square kilometers—could a single individual cover the whole battlefield with their power?

As long as one touches divine power and the primordial, becoming a true god in the literal sense, nearly everyone possesses the ability to destroy a planet.

But the skills they released are completely different from Lin Yi’s.

Divine power and the primordial are forces capable of changing the world.

To destroy a planet, one only needs to mix their divine power and the primordial together, maintaining it in a relatively stable state.

In this state, throw out a condensed energy ball, which becomes extremely unstable after being thrown. When the energy ball lands on the planet intended for destruction, as it loses control, the intertwined forces explode, leveling the entire planet.

Of course, this attack method is relatively simple.

Ordinary divine beings can indeed destroy a low-plane planet, but once the skill is unleashed, it’s impossible to control the subsequent effects after the skill’s explosion.

As for Lin Yi, he can perfectly control his descending attack.

Seeing the laser cannon roasting the earth over hundreds of square kilometers, the spectators couldn’t help but feel terrified.

Thankfully, they didn’t have the misfortune of encountering Lin Yi in the Three Realms and Six Paths and offending him. Confronting such a formidable character likely means a setback.

At first glance, Lin Yi’s divine power level doesn’t seem high, and as an Upper-Rank God, one might be inclined to underestimate him. But once Lin Yi is underestimated, the results are predictable.

Even with the gap in divine power level, he can exhaust you to death.

The difference in divine power level indeed cannot be bridged by high skill numbers, except in one case:

The side with lower strength has an overwhelming number.

This feels just like forming a team to take down a World Boss.

Which attribute of a World Boss would be low? They’re all number monsters.

High attack, high defense, high health. If ordinary strong individuals attempt a solo raid, they’ll only be utterly defeated. Only by numerous strong individuals uniting can they suppress the World Boss’s counterattacks, providing enough output to exhaust it to death.

Why is it so difficult to defeat the Four Great Corpse Kings, marked as World Bosses by the will of the Three Realms and Six Paths? Because the Four Great Corpse Kings have a special invincible shield.

The invincible shield has a mechanism.

It’s like a tough dragon scale; you must remove all the dragon scales to damage the target.

To harm the flesh beneath the dragon scales, you must remove the dragon scales. Firstly, your strength must be sufficient; without enough force, you cannot pull them out, but then, immense force alone is useless—no matter how strong the force is, you will only pull off one dragon scale at a time.

Secondly, the speed of your actions must be fast and persistent enough.

If you do it slowly, the spots where dragon scales are removed will grow back.

Ordinary Upper-Rank Gods indeed have strength, but their strength isn’t very formidable.

Their panel values are even inferior to Lin Yi’s, whose divine power level is lower than theirs.

Once diluted by the protective divine power and primordial, the damage that strikes the invincible shield is pitifully low.

Additionally, since ordinary people’s skills have cooldowns, and their mana recovery speed is limited, the output they can produce is limited, lacking even the ability to break the invincible shield.

The lack of understanding of the mechanism creates an illusion of the Four Corpse Kings being invincible.

Lin Yi, however, is an exception—plainly speaking, a unique case. His clone skills are physical entities that can even inherit the main body’s values and cast skills like the main body.

By multiplying the main body’s combat power by thirteen, you’ll see Lin Yi’s true combat power.

While most of the onlookers sighed at Lin Yi’s clever combat technique of using clones to outplay the Four Great Corpse Kings, the elites who came with the Eastern War God detected something different.

Using clones as bait to stall the Four Corpse Kings and then launching an assault opportunistically? Sacrificing clones for a chance to output? No, that’s not right!

This kid’s combat style is far more sophisticated than expected.

He doesn’t even want to pay the price of losing a few clones.

When the Positioning Laser Cannons were about to fall onto Lin Yi’s clones, his clones collectively activated the [Light and Shadow Interweaving] skill. In just an instant, they moved out of the skill’s range.

Boom!

Crackle, crackle, crackle—

The laser scorched the earth, causing it to let out painful groans. Through the laser beams, the earth was already baked red, and the scene was extremely shocking, much like a higher civilization striking down a lower civilization with a Dimensional Reduction Strike, where the weaker side has no power to fight back.

With the blessing of the Infinite Law, the base damage of these skills is maximized, and even with a protective layer of divine power and the Power of the Primordial, considerable damage still falls on the Four Corpse Kings and the Eastern War God.

The moment the skills landed on the Four Corpse Kings, white light appeared on their bodies, clearly visible was the invincible shield enveloping them, absorbing the damage.

It seemed the Four Corpse Kings could endure for a while longer.

But the Eastern War God was in a dire situation.

He didn’t have the special mechanism of an invincible shield.

Facing Lin Yi’s attack, all he could do was unleash his own divine power and primordial force, trying his best to dilute the damage caused by Lin Yi.

Initially, like the spectators, he believed that Lin Yi’s attacks couldn’t be sustained for long and would automatically cease due to the inability to withstand the consumption of Source Power.

After all, common sense dictated that when clones release skills, it also consumes the main body’s Source Power.
