The enraged white-bearded Divine Envoy unleashed surging Power of the Primordial to lock and crush Lin Yi within the dungeon space. Lin Yi activated the Tier Eight Space skill [Heaven and Earth Transformation Mirror], marking everything with Light and Shadow Marks for unlimited [Light and Shadow Interweave] use. He relentlessly toyed with the elder through position swaps, landing punches, sword strikes, and repeated Six Dao Thoughtless Slashes that disrupted the Divine Envoy's Source Power flow.

After journeying across countless realms for many years, the white-bearded elder at last beheld the true mark of a genius.

The Six Dao Thoughtless Slash - Unity, drawing from the Reincarnation Law, typically amounts to just a straight-line strike between two points.

Regardless of how blisteringly fast the slash moves, it remains bound by the fixed path dictated by the laws, rendering it simple to dodge.

Through Lin Yi’s skill effects, this strike gains a Light and Shadow Mark, enabling it to blink across the skies and lands at Lin Yi’s command.

Within one mere breath, the slash’s once predictable route had already shifted multiple times, savagely stabbing through the white-bearded elder’s form repeatedly.

The Divine Body’s defenses are truly formidable, yet even mighty protection falls short of true invulnerability.

Brilliant Sword Qi flashes without cease, leaving onlookers unable to tally the repeated strikes from Lin Yi’s sword upon the white-bearded elder.

The elder’s ethereal white robe could no longer endure the unyielding barrage of Sword Qi, finally showing signs of tearing.

His face, already twisted in fury, now underwent a stark change.

The once plump features stretched unnaturally long, while distinct protrusions swelled on either side of his sleek forehead.

The most horrifying shift occurred in the elder’s eyes, where the pupils morphed into inhuman horizontal squares.

Those sinister eyes gleamed with icy chill, as if peering into souls, yet radiating a primal, beastly savagery.

Horns slowly emerged from his head, their hooked ends carving through the air in chilling curves.

The air around them thickened like frozen stone; even Lin Yi caught his breath, eyes locked on this so-called "Divine Envoy."

Lin Yi’s initial trace of respect in his gaze morphed into scorn and disgust; the disdain shone clearly, his mixed look as if telling the sheep-headed Divine Envoy:

"So it’s just a beast!"

A guttural, rage-filled growl erupted from the sheep-headed Divine Envoy’s throat, laced with wrath and bitterness.

He had never imagined his carefully hidden true nature would be laid bare in such humiliating fashion.

He was meant to stand as the exalted divine envoy, adored by mortals, holding sway over life and death—yet now, to Lin Yi, he appeared as a despised goat.

His stare pierced the illusion, spotting identical looks of revulsion among Gangguo’s top leaders.

"You ants!"

The sheep-headed Divine Envoy’s voice rasped and warped, carrying the raw bellow unique to beasts.

"Dare to gaze upon me like that! I am the Divine Envoy, your master! I shall slaughter you all!"

Yet his bellow stirred no awe, only drawing further derision from Lin Yi.

"Divine Envoy? Nothing but a horned monster! Acting all mysterious—do you really fancy yourself superior?"

"A beast stays a beast; no disguise makes it human, much less divine!"

These insulting barbs darkened the Divine Envoy’s face entirely.

In blind fury, the Primordial Law inside him burst forth without restraint.

This force surpassed all existence, shaking the very heavens and earth.

The erupting shockwaves mimicked unseen colossal tides, engulfing the whole area in an instant.

Lin Yi’s vaunted Tier Eight Spatial Skills crumbled feebly against such might, fracturing like brittle glass under impact. The Six Paths Unification Slash, which had felled myriad mighty enemies, scattered into sparkling motes and faded to nothing before grazing the Divine Envoy’s frame.

The Divine Envoy’s shape slowly returned to its primal state—a bizarre sheep head atop a human torso.

His brawny frame bore arcane runes, each pulsing with infinite power, shining brilliantly.

Now fully unleashed, he cast off every limit, baring his authentic form and full might.

His overwhelming presence loomed like a bottomless void, breeding terror; mere proximity crushed Lin Yi with inescapable weight.

Lin Yi’s pupils narrowed sharply, warning bells blaring in his head.

He grasped that the foe now stood beyond reason—a full Divine Envoy, poised to annihilate all on Blue Star.

Without pause, Lin Yi ignited his inner Source Power, striving to unleash spatial skills and shift position to escape the fatal blow.

But as Source Power surged wildly, he felt trapped in thick mud.

Spatial skills locked in cooldown, his body refusing to budge.

Lin Yi’s heart plummeted; lifting his eyes, he watched the Divine Envoy’s monstrous sheep hoof clench slowly, as if grasping some unseen power.

"Boy, I said I would slay you!" The Divine Envoy's voice boomed deeply and icily, laced with an irresistible majesty.

His sheep hoof clenched suddenly, locking the space surrounding Lin Yi into a rigid, unseen cage.

"Playing such petty tricks before God, do you think it would be effective?"

A sly, derisive grin twisted the Divine Envoy's lips; in an instant, he turned into a streak of light, hurtling from dozens of kilometers distant to stand directly before Lin Yi, his movement too swift for any afterimages.

The sheep-headed Divine Envoy's horns shimmered with frosty gleam, cloaked in the Power of the Primordial Law, thrusting straight toward Lin Yi's chest.

This blow was plainly meant to claim his life!

Lin Yi's mind spun at full throttle, desperately scanning for any remaining countermeasures.

"Ding!"

A sharp metallic clang resounded, hurling Lin Yi's body backward like a bullet's impact, sending him tumbling through the air.

Searing pain stabbed his chest, as though his innards were on the verge of rupturing.

Lin Yi ground his teeth, peering down at his chest to find a deep dent of several centimeters over his left heart, bone faintly discernible under the taut skin.

"Well, this guy is stronger than I imagined."

Lin Yi murmured under his breath, inwardly grateful.

Without activating the Great Saint Martial Soul's Indestructible Vajra skill at the last second, that attack might have finished him off.

Yet before Lin Yi could regain his footing, the Divine Envoy's voice echoed anew, dripping with cat-playing-with-mouse ridicule and smug triumph: "Ah, boy, where are you looking?"

Lin Yi snapped his gaze upward, spotting the Divine Envoy already blocking the path of his forced retreat.

The velocity was utterly beyond reach.

The sheep-headed Divine Envoy tilted his head upward slightly, eyes glinting with disdain: "I didn’t expect you to withstand my blow; you have some ability. However, this Martial Soul skill also needs cooling time, right?"

Even as the words trailed off, the Divine Envoy's jaws parted wide, spewing a torrent of pure divine power that lanced through Lin Yi's frame in a flash. Acting like intangible fetters, the divine power utterly bound Lin Yi's inner strength.

"By the name of God, I seal all your methods with divine power!"

A bizarre wave of malaise surged through him; Lin Yi distinctly sensed every link to his skills being severed at once.

From basic skills and law skills to those granted by the Martial Soul, all were barricaded by an intangible barrier, impossible to summon.

"Now... I’m in trouble." Cold sweat trickled down Lin Yi's brow as he grasped the utter hopelessness of his plight. Against a fully intact Divine Envoy, bereft of all skills, what shot at victory remained?

But in this pivotal instant, a spark of insight struck Lin Yi.

It seems I haven't reached the end yet!
