After discovering the ruins of a great battle, Lin Yi and Xiyue pursued the god-like monster Moloch. Moloch rampaged through the Parallel Maoxiong Country, easily slaughtering powerful War God-level warriors. Just as Moloch was about to finish off the remaining warriors, Xiyue arrived and intervened, intercepting its attack.

The various robot parts continued to whir, their sharp mechanical noises offering the only response.

Moloch, dormant for millennia, was not unfamiliar with modern weaponry.

Yet, in his estimation, these weapons were merely crutches, ultimately ineffective.

Shielded by divine power, any attack not on par with the Power of the Primordial was incapable of inflicting harm upon him.

Consequently, when he observed Xiyue's formidable advance, he gave it little regard.

Even when the colossal blade wielded by Gundam swung forward, he felt no compulsion to evade.

A smile graced Moloch's lips as he puffed out his chest, advancing towards the mechanical blade. He displayed a composure far surpassing Lin Yi's serene dominance over much weaker foes.

Alas, this tranquil facade was not destined to endure.

At the precise moment the mechanical blade was poised to strike Moloch's chest, the Power of the Primordial silently imbued the weapon.

As a god who wielded the Power of the Primordial.

Moloch possessed a profound sensitivity to it.

The instant Xiyue committed to her strike, his pupils widened, and he immediately channeled his remaining divine power to erect a barrier around his chest, intercepting the incoming blow.

While the Power of the Primordial was undeniably potent, against divine power, it was as insignificant as an ant attempting to topple a mighty tree.

Upon impact, the Power of the Primordial that Xiyue had marshaled, along with Gundam's mechanical blade, disintegrated into dust. It was ruthlessly dispersed by the formidable aura emanating from Moloch.

"Heh, young lady, I never anticipated you'd command the Power of the Primordial. Shouldn't a planet like this possess only one such wielder? Or perhaps you hail from beyond this world?"

Moloch subtly suggested Xiyue should concern herself with her own affairs.

Xiyue's might rivaled that of the strongest individuals on Parallel Blue Star.

Both had mastered the Power of the Primordial, rightfully earning them recognition as powerhouses.

Nevertheless, when confronted by a divine power user of immense strength, the Power of the Primordial seemed as feeble as fireflies against the radiant glow of the moon.

Chu Tianyou and Zhao Mingsheng had personally borne witness to the confrontation between Parallel Blue Star's Xia Heaven-Breaking War God and Moloch.

They observed the War God being effortlessly vanquished by Moloch, whereupon they relayed the events to Lin Yi.

It appeared that Parallel Blue Star was indeed in a dire predicament, encountering a being of divine power. Even before a full engagement, their strongest champion had been easily subdued. How could they possibly hope to resist?

To put it plainly, were it not for the timely arrival of Xiyue and Lin Yi, the annihilation of Blue Star in this parallel world would have been a foregone conclusion. The speed of their destruction would have been entirely at Moloch's whim.

Upon hearing Moloch's words, the professionals from Maoxiong grasped one crucial detail: the Xia Heaven-Breaking War God had already engaged him.

Observing Moloch's complete lack of injury, they could readily predict the outcome of such a clash.

Yet, the War Gods of Maoxiong resisted this reality, persistently posing questions to which they already knew the answer.

"Ugly creature, what do you mean? Did you battle the Heaven-Breaking War God? What became of him?"

Moloch was long accustomed to being labeled unsightly.

Indeed, the appearance of a minotaur could hardly be described as comely.

Throughout his countless millennia of existence, numerous individuals had referred to him, Moloch, as ugly.

However, those daring enough to voice such an opinion typically possessed power that surpassed his own.

Now, hearing the same words from a group too intimidated to even make a move, Moloch found his restraint faltering.

Beyond having no obligation to entertain their inquiries, given the vast disparity in power, what conceivable reason did Moloch have to respond to the questions posed by mere ants he could crush beneath his heel?

Having endured such an insult, how could he possibly suppress the surge of murderous intent?

Fury rose within him, and a colossal surge of the Power of the Primordial erupted, coalescing into six razor-sharp blades that hurtled ferociously towards the remaining six War Gods of Maoxiong.

The sheer velocity of this exaggerated assault far outstripped Xiyue's capacity to react.

Just as the six surviving War Gods were poised to face the consequences of their impetuous words, a figure materialized silently beside Xiyue.

In the subsequent moment, the [Intertwining Light and Shadow] skill was unleashed, causing the blades, which were meant for the surviving War Gods, to inexplicably phase through Moloch's form.

Not only was the lethal assault effortlessly nullified by Lin Yi, but it was also adroitly redirected to strike the enemy. Such was his formidable prowess. The six War Gods of Maoxiong searched their memories extensively but could find no record of Lin Yi.

Could such a formidable expert exist on Parallel Blue Star? How had they remained unaware of him?

Furthermore, given that Maoxiong and Xia were neighboring nations, since when had Xia produced a warrior of such incredible fortitude?

Even with the might of divinity at his beck and call, and though his divine power dwindled, Moloch could still effortlessly negate Lin Yi’s offensive, sustaining no significant damage.

Nevertheless, being outmaneuvered and consistently thwarted incensed Moloch to no end.

A shake of his head, a ripple of his muscles, and he earnestly focused his soul.

"Well, well, who would have fathomed that this little Blue Star harbored two masters of the Power of the Primordial? Utterly unexpected, but without the flow of divine power, your capabilities are limited to this extent."

"Had you maintained your obscurity, I might not have unearthed you. However, since you opted to reveal yourselves, do not hold me accountable for my ruthlessness!"

As his declaration concluded, Moloch's form dramatically expanded multiple times its original size. The previously rough, fiery physique underwent a startling transformation, now displaying blood vessels and muscular structures eerily akin to tangible flesh.

Moloch’s imposing aura concurrently surged with formidable intensity.

"Are you feeling uncertain?"

Lin Yi, positioned beside Xiyue, inquired in a low tone.

Xiyue's proficiency in wielding the Power of the Primordial stemmed directly from her successful assimilation of the meteorite.

As the Elemental Star's ultimate trump card, it invariably held profound secrets concerning the Power of the Primordial.

Upon gaining control of the Inner Court, Xiyue initiated extensive simulations, ultimately grasping the nature of the Power of the Primordial, thereby becoming Blue Star's third practitioner of this formidable power, following in Lin Yi's footsteps.

However, Xiyue's abilities were nascent, her power output still quite restricted.

Confronting an immensely powerful entity imbued with divine power, Xiyue could only confess her wavering confidence in achieving victory.

"Fear not, proceed onward. I stand ready at this critical juncture," Lin Yi reassured her.

Xiyue nodded, marshaled several automatons conjured through her mechanical expertise, and unleashed another assault against Moloch.

Moloch exhibited no apprehension towards Xiyue’s offensive.

Even from their brief prior engagement, Moloch had already discerned that Lin Yi's formidable strength operated on an entirely distinct plane compared to Xiyue's.

Despite wielding the Power of the Primordial, Xiyue's comparatively uncomplicated attack vectors offered little genuine peril to him. Lin Yi, however, presented a stark contrast.

He was akin to a concealed serpent lurking in the shadows.

The moment he chose to act, it would unarguably precipitate immense complications for his adversary, potentially even plunging them into an endless chasm of profound torment.
