Lin Yi cruelly executed a sentient elemental bi-monster despite its pleas for mercy. He then collected its unique elemental spirit crystal. As Lin Yi considered the threat posed by multi-elemental creatures, a powerful ape-like being launched a surprise attack, followed by three more.

Clang clang clang~

With a crisp sound of metal clashing, three powerful shockwaves of energy were unleashed.

Every combatant, be they elemental creatures or Blue Star warriors, paused in their battles, their attention seized by the sudden disturbance.

While the War God level warriors were relatively unaffected, higher-level warriors with slightly lesser strength were sent flying hundreds or even thousands of meters by the terrifying blast wave from the clash of weapons and the "Eternal Guardian" before they could even register what happened.

As they gazed into Lin Yi’s somewhat bewildered eyes, the three figures who had launched the ambush grew bolder.

To their surprise, Lin Yi, who had toyed with Elemental Star before, seemed so passive when faced with an ambush, not appearing invincible after all.

With this thought, the three figures let out roars. Their muscles swelled instantaneously, making their already tall and sturdy physiques even more exaggerated, exerting considerable pressure on the Blue Star warriors present.

The nearby Blue Star warriors seized the opportunity when the attack of the three figures was momentarily blocked, successfully capturing them.

The instant this happened, an ominous premonition crept into the hearts of the warriors who witnessed it clearly.

How could creatures from Ancient Ape Star possibly appear on Elemental Star?!

Possessing intelligence nearly on par with humans, they were obviously aware that the passage linking the four stars was a one-way route, allowing no return once entered. Despite this inherent restriction, they had come to Elemental Star to join the fray.

Even more astonishing was the fact that these three dark red Ancient Apes appeared to have lost their minds.

Given the significant power disparity between Elemental Star and Blue Star at present, they had nonetheless chosen to attack Lin Yi. Were they planning to combine the might of two stars against him?

As the three Ancient Apes roared, a bloody aura enveloped their bodies, and their dark red fur stood on end against gravity, making their ten-meter-tall frames appear even more immense.

The weapons held by the three dark red Ancient Apes also emitted a dull glow.

Upon closer examination, it was revealed that these creatures had infused their weapons with Harmonization level Power of Destruction, intending to shatter Lin Yi’s defenses head-on.

The pitch-black mechanical shield strained under the assault of the three dark red Ancient Apes, emitting a sizzling sound, as if crying out in agony.

While the "Eternal Guardian" skill originated from Lin Yi.

It proved difficult to withstand the onslaught of such powerful beings without the additional Power of Law.

Indeed, as the three Ancient Apes intensified the force of their blows, the mechanical shield provided by "Eternal Guardian" shattered with a resounding bang.

An opportunity!

Being among the top fighters from Ancient Ape Star, the three dark red Ancient Apes possessed extensive combat experience.

They had given their all to breach Lin Yi’s defenses, intending to exploit the momentary vulnerability Lin Yi would supposedly show when the skill broke, and launch a relentless assault.

However, these three red apes had overestimated their own capabilities.

Ordinary warriors might be ensnared by such tactics, but how could these maneuvers possibly affect Lin Yi?

With the Grand Celestial Immortal Skill at his disposal, Lin Yi was rendered immune to all abnormal status effects.

This included the surge of energy and blood triggered by the skill's destruction.

Without an absolute suppression of power, how could Lin Yi possibly be harmed?

As anticipated, in the very next moment, the three apes lay sprawled neatly at Lin Yi’s feet.

The three apes reacted with astonishing speed, leaping in unison the instant Lin Yi’s skill shattered. They unleashed their most potent skills, aimed directly at Lin Yi’s head.

The speed displayed by the three apes was terrifying, causing the Blue Star warriors to watch in sheer horror.

Unfortunately, no matter how swift they were, they could not outpace Lin Yi.

Or rather, within the domain of Eternity, all existence seemed to be in a state of near stillness.

Massive amounts of Source Power and dense Power of Law enveloped the weapons of the three apes, which, under the apes' control, successfully stopped just millimeters from Lin Yi’s head.

It appeared as though Lin Yi’s head would be split open in the very next second, yet despite their utmost efforts, the three apes could not force them through the final few millimeters.

At this juncture, the three apes began to comprehend the terrifying nature of the man standing before them.

With merely a thought, he could command such immense Eternal Power. Such awe-inspiring control could hardly be described as masterful; it was truly at its zenith.

Under the gaze of countless onlookers, Lin Yi slowly lifted his right hand, then formed a fist.

Instantly, a crushing gravity erupted.

The bodies of the three apes, frozen in place, were like springs suddenly recoiling, rushing towards a single focal point.

Bam!

Teeth, flesh, shattered bones...

A multitude of fragments exploded outwards the moment the three dark red giant apes collided.

The most unfortunate among them suffered a broken nose and a blinded eye.

This was accompanied by the agonizing howls of the three apes.

When an egg encounters a rock, the rock remains unscathed. However, the impact between two rocks tells a different tale.

The three Apes, locked in an even contest, were bound to sustain injuries from their collisions.

Lin Yi's amusement with the three Apes had only just commenced.

With a mere flick of his wrist, the immobilized Apes, propelled as if by a magnetic force, were flung in separate directions, covering miles in an instant.

Yet, before they could recover their bearings or their mobility, Lin Yi clenched his fist once more.

The preceding scene unfolded again.

The three Apes were once again drawn together by an immense gravitational pull, colliding violently against each other.

This impact proved far more devastating than the last.

Previously, while parts were torn asunder, it was still discernible that these three beings hailed from the Ancient Ape Star. This time, whether due to the amplified force or the Apes' depleted stamina, leaving them unable to mount a defense, the three massive, dark-red Ancient Apes were crushed into a single mass.

Their pitiable state indicated that very few bones within their bodies were likely left intact.

They were almost reduced to a spherical form.

Whether from the inability to endure the intense pain or due to damage to their vocal cords, the three Apes this time could only display expressions of agony, utterly silent.

Dark red blood dripped onto the silent battlefield, creating a sharp, clear contrast.

Is it over? No, this is merely the beginning.

For approximately the next dozen seconds, Lin Yi repeated this action multiple times until the three Apes ceased all movement, indicating they were lifeless, before he finally stopped.

Those three seemingly formidable and ferocious Ancient Ape warriors were now rendered utterly unrecognizable.

One could not possibly associate that pulpy mass of blood and fur with the terrifying, muscular Ancient Apes from earlier; they were truly battered beyond any semblance of recognition.

"How tiresome. It appears the combat prowess of the Ancient Ape Star is quite limited. Set, why don't you emerge and face me?"

"Do you possess the courage? If not, you could summon Chaos; it would save us the effort."
