Moloch's attack was disrupted by the Chaos Law, allowing Xiyue to regain control of her abilities and strike back with a black hole. Moloch retaliated, but Xiyue dodged and repositioned, forcing him into another black hole. Lin Yi provided Xiyue with the Heavenly Following Cloud Sword, enhancing her powers. As Moloch attempted to flee using a divine flame escape, Xiyue intercepted him at the shield's gap and sealed his escape route.
"Moreover, you truly believe such infantile strategies can help you dodge this attack?" Xiyue scoffed, a fiery red luminescence erupting from her eyes like a cascade of drifting fireflies.
At that critical juncture, she pushed the Law of Chaos to its absolute limit, imbuing it completely with the Primordial and Divine Power lent by Lin Yi.
[Chaos Origin]
The genesis of the Ten Thousand Realms lies within chaos. It was only after the Great God cleaved the heavens and earth that deities could usher in the creation of all things.
The Law of Chaos, undeniably, stands as an underestimated Supreme Law. Its associated Law skills are all extraordinarily potent.
While the skill [Earth-Bursting Celestial Star] can only restrict tangible entities and is virtually useless against foes capable of elemental transformation, this Law skill of [Chaos Origin] has the effect of agitating and blending everything within its affected domain, reverting it back to its primordial, chaotic state.
This phenomenon extends beyond mere physical matter; even the elements, the very air within the space, and the ambient moisture are not spared, all being drawn and aggregated by an immense force.
The myriad Divine Flames conjured by Moloch's skill are similarly caught in this maelstrom.
As his soul was entirely engulfed by the Divine Flame, Moloch found himself unable to deploy his power in time nor shield his soul with the Primordial and Divine Power.
If one were to question why Moloch did not erect a preemptive defense, the answer lies in the fact that such an action would have immediately revealed his position to Xiyue, thanks to her keen perception of the Primordial and Divine Power.
Under the dominion of chaotic power, sand and stones were sent airborne, while water, fire, wind, and lightning—all elements succumbed to the Law's might, being successfully coalesced into a perplexing, viscous, and sickeningly hued mixture.
Moloch's soul was concealed within this chaotic amalgamation.
"Let's see how you manage to escape this time!"
The blazingly bloody slash sliced through the coalesced chaotic matter. In a mere instant, the chaotic substance was utterly annihilated by the overwhelming Power of Reincarnation.
The fearsome slash continued its trajectory unimpeded until it met the shield erected by the Eternal Law, at which point the two forces dissolved into each other, returning tranquility to the vicinity.
In the subsequent moment, where the chaotic matter had been obliterated, a cluster of blazing golden flame materialized out of thin air.
Having utilized Divine Power, Xiyue immediately discerned that this golden flame represented Moloch's divine essence.
"Seize it. It is an indispensable component for your ascension to godhood."
Xiyue finally grasped the profound depth of Lin Yi's thoughtful planning.
The confrontation with Moloch was not designed for Xiyue to merely wield power that was not her own, but rather to propel her towards an unprecedented level of advancement.
For Xiyue, the mastery of Divine Power was not solely about annexing the divine essence.
There exist two distinct avenues for a mortal to attain mastery over Divine Power.
The first involves becoming a formidable cultivator through one's own dedicated efforts. This path demands extraordinary innate talent and a considerable expenditure of time; achieving it is a feat that even individuals as exceptionally gifted as Lin Yi, blessed with cheat-like talents, cannot accomplish with ease.
If one were to inquire about the timeframe for Lin Yi to master Divine Power through his own cultivation, it would likely span at least eighty to a hundred years.
The second path promises swift success but is fraught with extreme unlikelihood. Had Lin Yi not received assistance from Zacks or utilized the Divine Power gifted by him, even if he had vanquished the ram-headed Divine Envoy, he would not have met the qualifications to refine its Divine Power Elixir and thus obtain his own Divine Power.
Not all deities within the Three Realms and Six Paths are akin to Zacks.
Previously, the newly acquired skill [Sun Reflects Moon’s Splendor] during the Great Saint Martial Soul Awakening was identified as a Divine Skill; however, its manifestation is not limited to mere ability replication but extends to the power of creation of gods!
While Lin Yi did indeed attain his own Divine Power, he has not yet reached a stage where he can bestow its usage upon others.
The ability to command potent Divine Power is not universally accessible.
Nevertheless, through the replicated Divine Power derived from [Sun Reflects Moon’s Splendor], Xiyue can exercise complete control over it.
Even if Lin Yi were to withdraw the skill's effects, Xiyue could still leverage the adaptability she gained from utilizing Lin Yi's Divine Power to refine Moloch's Divine Power.
Aware of the formidable nature of Divine Power, Xiyue dared not let her guard down.
Enveloping herself with the borrowed Divine Power, she surged forth at her utmost speed toward Moloch's divine essence.
Only Divine Power possesses the capability to contain and restrict Divine Power.
The descending net of Divine Power left Moloch's divine essence with no avenue for escape, firmly ensnaring it.
Fueled by Xiyue's exertion, the Divine Power net continuously tightened, ultimately binding Moloch's essential Divine Power with unyielding strength.
"Transforming that Divine Power into your own is paramount. For the duration, I shall stand guard. Commence with a tranquil mind. The capability I have bestowed upon you will eventually dissipate. At that juncture, you shall have to confront the Divine Power independently. Remain resolute then."
The pinnacle of the god-creation endeavor, the refinement of Divine Power, has commenced!
A web of Divine Power gradually constricted, finally integrating into Xiyue’s very being.
Xiyue’s skin began to radiate a brilliant golden luminescence.
Moloch’s Divine Power surged into her, initiating a fierce contest with the Divine Power Lin Yi had bestowed upon her.
Within the core of the divine essence lay Moloch’s final, lingering will.
By subduing this last vestige of will, imprinting her own determination onto the Divine Power, and aligning her physical form to its essence, Xiyue would achieve complete dominion over it.
Alternatively put, she would come to possess her own unique manifestation of Divine Power.
At that critical juncture, Xiyue would ascend beyond her current plane of existence, shedding her mortal limitations to become a genuine deity.
The golden radiance intensified, eventually coalescing into a protective barrier that enveloped Xiyue entirely.
Lin Yi understood that Xiyue’s profound trial had now begun.
He too had his own vital role to fulfill: to forge Xiyue into the beacon of hope for the Parallel Blue Star.
With a mere thought, the skill [Light and Shadow Intertwine] was activated. Instantly, the panicked media personnel of the Parallel Blue Star, along with their broadcast apparatus, materialized before him.
The sheer terror radiating from these individuals was palpable; they were on the verge of screaming their fear aloud when Lin Yi raised a single finger, signaling for them to be silent.
"Mmm mmm mmm, mmm mmm mmm..."
Every member of the media present found themselves seized by an overwhelming dread, yet utterly incapable of opening their mouths to utter a single sound.
As they instinctively reached to touch their faces, they discovered their mouths had vanished entirely?
The primordial power that governed all existence had remolded their very forms, effectively sealing their speech.
"Esteemed individuals, I implore you, do not succumb to panic or cries. The existential crisis for Blue Star has concluded. The malevolent entity that imperiled Blue Star’s existence has been definitively vanquished by Xiyue. Blue Star is now entirely secure."
Accompanied by a gentle smile, Lin Yi addressed the assembled group of media personnel.
"Furthermore, your presence here is not for any extraneous reason, but rather to grant you the unparalleled opportunity for exclusive reporting, a true scoop. Proceed!"
