The Ancient Ape Star forces launched a surprise attack on Blue Star's healer team, but Lin Yi intervened just in time. Using his newly acquired skill, Forbidden Curse: Black Hole, he instantly annihilated the attackers, showcasing a terrifying new level of power.

A formidable force capable of rending souls ceaselessly poured from the colossal black hole hovering above Lin Yi’s head.

Across the Elemental Star’s battleground, an oppressive aura, unfelt by those hailing from Blue Star, radiated its terrifying might.

The warriors of Ancient Ape Star, known for their formidable physiques that rarely found equals on comparable worlds, felt a primal fear.

Upon sensing the monstrous gravitational pull emanating from the void above Lin Yi, their sharp fangs were involuntarily bared.

This immense, unidirectional suction not only tugged at the fur on their bodies but also strained their hardened skin and drew the very blood within them towards a single point.

The pervasive agony was a triviality; it had been a constant companion since the black hole’s manifestation.

It completely shattered the charge of the elite forces from Ancient Ape Star.

Amidst the chaos, a squad leader from Ancient Ape Star urgently queried their team’s sensor.

"Captain Kalin, what is happening to them? Isn’t that formidable Blue Star fellow merely dueling our boss? Who unleashed this attack, was it perhaps that guy’s clone?"

The assigned sensor from Ancient Ape Star confirmed the unsettling truth: the entity summoning the black hole was indeed not Lin Yi’s primary form, but a doppelganger.

Nevertheless, this very doppelganger utterly redefined the comprehension of these Ancient Ape Star members.

Skills involving doppelgangers were not an anomaly.

Certain clones could indeed execute abilities and fight in concert with their origin.

However, for a standard doppelganger to reach such a level, it necessitated the siphoning of power from its primary self.

Many doppelgangers existed merely as diversions for basic physical assaults and maneuvers, incapable of significant independent action. The prevalence of such clones was typically high.

Yet, Lin Yi’s doppelgangers were not only of exceptional caliber but also alarmingly numerous.

Most critically, their quality was astonishingly superior.

As they intensified their perceptive scans, the sensory apes poured more source power into their instruments, desperately seeking a contradictory finding.

However, with each enhanced scan, their apprehension only deepened.

"Captain, your assessment is accurate. The main body of that Blue Star individual is indeed engaged with our boss. The power displayed by this doppelganger, aside from possessing only 30% of the main body’s life force, mirrors the primary self in all other attributes."

This revelation struck a fatal blow to the morale of the Ancient Ape Star warriors.

Twelve doppelgangers, identical in every aspect save for life value compared to the main body, and each capable of independent skill execution.

With this strategic maneuver by Lin Yi, the predicament confronting the elite Ancient Ape Star forces on the Elemental Star had become exceedingly grim.

One must recognize: Lin Yi stood as the paramount figure of Blue Star, a master who could command the very will of the planet. Victory against such an awe-inspiring adversary could not be achieved through sheer numbers alone.

Nearly all the powerful individuals of Ancient Ape Star found themselves, from the depths of their hearts, harboring admiration for their boss.

In both might and intellect, Set was a being far beyond the reach of ordinary mortals.

And recently, a persistent doubt had begun to plague them regarding their leader.

Was initiating hostilities with Blue Star on Elemental Star truly a judicious strategy?

Confronting a foe as formidable as Lin Yi, was there genuinely any prospect of emerging victorious?

Previously, when Lin Yi abstained from eliminating numerous creatures on Elemental Star and instead opted to grant Blue Star’s professionals opportunities to prove their mettle, the covertly observing Ancient Ape Star experts inferred that Lin Yi was utterly oblivious to the brutal realities of the battlefield.

Was foregoing vital offensive opportunities, choosing instead such a wasteful approach, not sheer foolishness?

At this precise moment, they finally grasped the true nature of Lin Yi’s actions, yet this understanding plunged the mighty Ancient Ape Star warriors into a profound abyss of despair and helplessness.

Lin Yi was not acting rashly in the slightest.

His sole intention was to provide a platform for Blue Star’s professionals to compete and establish their significance.

It was no exaggeration to claim that with his mastery of doppelganger skills, Lin Yi possessed the capacity to obliterate Elemental Star single-handedly.

The stunned warriors of Ancient Ape Star, their weapons slipping from nerveless fingers, were unceremoniously dragged hundreds of meters by the black hole’s overwhelming suction.

As for the inhabitants of Elemental Star, their plight was even more calamitous.

Their primary advantage lay in their elemental forms, which rendered them impervious to physical attacks.

Yet, ironically, these very elemental bodies now seemed to be propelling them towards utter annihilation.

The black hole’s catastrophic force, capable of tearing apart all matter, left even the elements no refuge.

Lacking a stable form, they could no longer maintain their original configurations, disintegrating into shapes utterly unrecognizable as living beings.

The mid-to-low-tier elemental entities engaged in the conflict faced inescapable doom against the black hole’s potent pull. From the moment the void materialized, they were forcibly rent asunder, their essence reduced to mere Elemental Spirit Crystals.

As the supreme ruler of Elemental Star, Chaos observed the horrific slaughter of his kin, his inner fury escalating to its zenith in an instant.

With a deafening roar, he fully embraced the will of Elemental Star, disregarding any consequences that might arise from invoking the star’s power.

"Damn you all! When Insect Hive Star was annihilated, I already foresaw that your insatiable greed would eventually lead you to strike at my Elemental Star."

"Today, I, Chaos, swear upon my very existence that even if it means eternal damnation, I shall transform the elites of Blue Star and you into the very sustenance of my Elemental Star! You shall remain bound to Elemental Star forever!"

These defiant words were not merely intended to bolster his own resolve.

Lin Yi could distinctly perceive that Chaos’s pronouncement caused the myriad of elements within Elemental Star to grow increasingly volatile.

Under the omnipresent gaze of the Eye of All-Seeing, the five fundamental elements – wind, fire, lightning, water, and earth – began to surge uncontrollably.

In this pivotal moment, the esteemed title of Elemental King was truly actualized.

The surging tempest of the five elements converged with singular focus upon one target: Chaos himself.

Irrespective of any dispersed elements across the planet, even the remnants of elemental creatures that Lin Yi had brutally torn apart and whose essences were consumed by the black hole, they reformed and rushed toward Chaos.

Whether his physical form possessed the capacity to endure the entirety of the planet’s unleashed force, Chaos harbored a singular, paramount thought: Lin Yi must be eradicated, no matter the cost.

He was prepared to gamble everything, even if it meant he would not live to witness the triumph of this monumental battle.

As the most formidable entity on Elemental Star and the master of the Chaos Black Thunder, Chaos possessed an exceptional innate affinity with all five elements.

To put it plainly, Chaos’s very essence was derived from a cryptic black thunder, formed by the precise amalgamation of the five elements in specific, arcane ratios.

Had this mysterious black thunder not been vigilantly restrained by Lin Yi at a crucial earlier juncture, the ensuing explosion would have been utterly beyond comprehension.

Once the Chaos Black Thunder infiltrates a being’s body, without the intervention of a more potent Power of the Primordial to control and expunge it, the outcome is invariably grim:

All vital essence within the host will be leached away by the insidious Chaos Black Thunder, devoured until nothing remains but an empty husk. Subsequently, the body will be violently ruptured by an overwhelming surge of Chaos Black Thunder, vanishing completely from existence.
