The flame sable had not expected Lu Yin to attack it. Its flames transformed into a curtain that covered the entire area, but it was too late. The Void Palm viciously struck the flame sable's body, sending its palm-sized body flying.
The flame sable was enraged, and it let out a sharp shriek at Lu Yin. Its beady eyes were filled with murderous intent, and the flames on its body surged wildly. It was only the size of a palm, but in the blink of an eye, it had transformed into a flaming mountain. It raised its claws, one aimed at Lu Yin and the other at Ling Qiu.
In terms of battle prowess, Ling Qiu was no match for the Flame Marten. However, as a member of the Lingling Clan, her innate battle skills were unparalleled. The Lingling Clan had the ability to split into three clones, each of which had the strength of the original body. Unless one was absolutely crushed, it would not be easy to defeat a member of the Lingling Clan.
Back then, Spirit Great Ancestor had been absolutely crushed by Emperor Liu's battle prowess. One was over a million, while the other was around 800,000. Back then, Spirit Great Ancestor had also been bombarded by the Sky Demon Imperial Family man's essence, energy, and soul force, unable to resist at all.
However, no one would underestimate the Lingling Clan because of this. The Lingling Clan was almost invincible when fighting against people of the same cultivation level.
The Flame Sable's battle prowess clearly surpassed Ling Qiu's, but they were still in a stalemate. This was also the reason why Ling Qiu had the confidence to deal with the Flame Sable.
Ling Qiu, who had split her spirit, was enough to stall the Flame Sable.
Ling Qiu evaded the flame mink's flaming claws and stared at Lu Yin. "I don't need your help. I'm enough to deal with it. It's just a beast."
Lu Yin did not intend to help. He wanted to capture the flame mink alive, but that seemed to be a little difficult.
Ling Qiu's words infuriated the Flame Marten. No matter how it heard it, it sounded like she was scolding someone. As it thought about it, flames spread out in all directions. Ling Qiu's Spirit Clone was caught off guard and was burned to ashes by the flames.
Ling Qiu's attacks became even more ferocious. Leaves began to fall from the sky. This was Ling Qiu's innate gift.
The most frightening thing about the Lingling Clan was their innate talent. Their ten innate talents combined into one was incomparably mysterious.
Ling Qiu's Innate Skill was Autumn Intent. Just like her name, fallen leaves drifted down, overflowing with Autumn Intent. They were clearly fallen leaves, but the Flame Marten's high temperature flames were actually unable to burn them. It was like the rain of leaves, inconceivably extinguishing the Flame Marten's mountain-like flames.
The Flame Sable raised its head, its sharp whistle filled with anger as it glared at Ling Qiu.
Lu Yin's gaze turned cold, and the Star Scattered Chessboard appeared beneath his feet once more.
He moved directly to the top of the Flame Marten's head. Then, under Ling Qiu's shocked gaze, he visualized the Immovable Heavenly King Elephant and lowered his palm. "Emptiness Palm".
The flame mink did not pay any attention to Lu Yin at first, and it had been staring at Ling Qiu. It had felt a sense of danger, especially when Ling Qiu's innate gift had appeared. However, Lu Yin's Clear Sky Palm had landed squarely on its head, stunning it. The power of this palm was too great, and even though it had a power level of over 700,000, it could not withstand it and was sent flying out of the Astral Source Universe.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Yin barked, "Attack!" As he spoke, he struck out with his palm, not giving the sable any chance to retaliate. Ling Qiu had not expected Lu Yin's palm to be so powerful. What was that behind him?
An elephant?
Without much time to think, Autumn Spirit's Star Origin transformed into a spear, stabbing towards the Flame Sable from both sides.
The Flame Sable's body was pierced by the spear, causing blood to spurt out. The intense pain woke it up, but Lu Yin's palm struck again. This time, the Emptiness Palm not only contained a huge amount of Overlaying Stacks, but also a domain and spiritual force. The Flame Sable might be able to withstand Overlaying Stacks and a domain, but its spiritual force was its weakness. The Emptiness Palm's unbridled attacks left it unable to retaliate.
In the distance, Feng Lin transformed into a Celestial Ice Phoenix, her tri-colored light sweeping over.
Lu Yin grabbed the Flame Sable and used it as a shield, but the tri-colored light ruthlessly swept over and forced both Lu Yin and the Flame Sable back.
Feng Lin's power level was only around 600,000, so she could not break through Lu Yin's defenses. However, the tri-colored light melted the Flame Sable's fur.
"Despicable!" Feng Lin angrily rebuked. Opposite her, the Ice Emperor raised a hand, causing the five-ringed plum blossom to scatter. "Let's see if you can melt this move."
Feng Lin stared at the Ice Empress. "My clan's tri-colored light can melt everything. You have no chance of winning against me." With that, her tri-colored light swept out.
The Flame Sable was frantically attacked by Lu Yin and Ling Qiu, and it was suppressed to the point where it could not even retaliate. A shadow suddenly appeared and wrapped around the Flame Sable, trying to drag it away.
It was the Shadowbeast.
Lu Yin was immediately enraged. Intercept?
The star energy in his hand transformed into a sword, and he slashed out, but he was unable to tear apart the Shadowbeast's shadow.
In the distance, Liu Qianjue's sword slashed down, directly severing the Shadowbeast's control over the shadow. Ling Qiu's spear pierced through the shadow, nailing it to the void.
The Shadowbeast's interference had successfully allowed the Flame Sable to catch its breath, allowing it to break free from Lu Yin's Clear Void Palm's suppression. The Flame Sable's surging flames crazily spread across its body and swept towards Lu Yin. At this point, its hatred for Lu Yin far exceeded Ling Qiu's.
Even though Ling Qiu's fallen leaves drifted away once more, they were unable to suppress the flames.
Lu Yin was not in too much danger against the Flame Sable's surging flames, as his micro-armor was able to withstand them. Even though there were cracks in the armor, the temperature of the flames that could penetrate the cracks and reach his body would not be too high. Lu Yin had always relied on high temperatures for his cultivation, so his resistance to high temperatures was much higher than the average person's.
However, defense was one thing; what he wanted was to capture the Flame Sable alive. Otherwise, there would be no point in participating in this battle, and it would be better for Ling Qiu to fight alone.
As he thought about this, a black and white fog enveloped his chest, forming a giant cocoon that wrapped around him. Ling Qiu appeared in front of him and swept away the flames. She stared at the black and white cocoon in shock. What is this?
At this moment, countless people looked over, including Feng Lin, the Ice Emperor, Liu Qianjue, the Shadowbeast, and even the Liu Emperor, Xu Qing, the Celestial Demon, the Second Nightking, and the others. The moment the black and white fog appeared, a strange feeling pervaded the air. It was like an ancient desolation that caused everyone to unconsciously look over.
The Flame Sable stared at the black and white cocoon with fear in the depths of its eyes. It was not afraid of Lu Yin, but rather of that power. Even though that power might not exceed its power level, it did not know why, but when it saw the black and white energy, it felt a fear that came from the bottom of its heart. It was as if the two species were mutually exclusive.
The Flame Sable wasn't the only one who felt this; the other beasts felt the same way. The battlefield actually paused for a moment.
This was something that even Lu Yin had not expected. As he grew stronger, the aura of the Reaper Transformation also grew stronger. He was becoming more and more like the Grim Reaper, an invincible soul that was branded in the depths of all species. Be it humans, beasts, or even Eternals, all of them had faced the Grim Reaper before.
This fear was like an inheritance that would become more apparent the further one progressed.
The black and white cocoon broke apart, and Lu Yin walked out. His hair fell to his waist, and black and white gas coiled around him. This was the Reaper Transformation.
When he looked up, his eyes were pure black and filled with boundless fear.
At this moment, Lu Yin felt like a stranger.
Lu Yin clenched his fists and felt that he had become even stronger. Every time he grew stronger and absorbed death qi, the Reaper Transformation seemed to grow stronger. This time, it was unprecedentedly strong, and it had forcibly increased his power.
"Get out of my way," Lu Yin growled as he glanced at Ling Qiu. He lightly tapped his feet and raised his hand, sending a giant Gou Lian slashing at the Flame Sable.
The Flame Sable seemed to be frozen in place as it watched the giant Gou Lian slash at it. It did not resist at all, and half of its body was torn apart, its blood spilling out into space.
Lu Yin was flabbergasted. Was this guy stupid?
Why wasn't it resisting?
In the distance, the Shadowbeast's shadow distorted as it tried to drag the Flame Sable away again. However, Lu Yin was prepared, and the Gou Lian slashed at the Shadowbeast. This time, Lu Yin actually managed to block the shadow.
There was clearly a huge difference between their power levels, but Lu Yin was still able to block the shadow.
The Shadowbeast was stunned. Impossible! Based on his power level alone, this brat definitely could not block the shadow. There was something strange about that Gou Lian, or rather, there was something strange about this brat's power. It actually terrified the Shadowbeast, and it did not dare to look directly into those eyes.
The Flame Sable finally reacted, and it endured its heavy injuries as it tried to flee. The chains around Lu Yin's body pierced through the Astral Source Universe and bound the Flame Sable. He then charged towards the fleet. "Stop them."
From the moment Lu Yin entered the Reaper Transformation to when he caught the Flame Sable, the entire process had only taken a few seconds. However, the shock it brought was especially intense. Regardless of whether it was the Flame Sable's fear or the Shadowbeast's inability to block the shadow, the entire Astral Beast Domain was deeply shaken.
The Celestial Beast Domain was proud, and they devoured spiritual force. They considered themselves the rulers of the Astral Beast Domain and disdained humans. However, when the Celestial Beast Domain saw Lu Yin's Reaper Transformation, he could not help but feel fear. It was not towards Lu Yin, but towards that power.
What kind of power was this?
Was it able to surpass the difference in power level and bring fear to the depths of one's soul?
Xu Qing stared at Lu Yin's back with a burning gaze. This was the power that suppressed those of the same generation. This was the power that Xu Qing wanted, and he had to obtain it.
When Lu Yin completely disappeared, the countless astral beasts finally reacted. The Flame Sable had been captured.
Xu Qing angrily shouted, "Lu Yin, release the Flame Sable!" He then tried to charge towards the fleet, but he was stopped by Liu Huang. When he turned around, he saw that the countless astral beasts no longer had any fighting spirit in their eyes. Xu Qing's heart sank, as even they felt fear, let alone the other astral beasts. When he thought of this, he immediately decided to retreat.
If they continued to fight, they would only be at a disadvantage, and they would also have one less power level.
As the countless astral beasts retreated, victory naturally belonged to the Great Eastern Alliance.
Actually, to the participants of the Great Eastern Alliance, not retreating meant that they had won.
However, Liu Huang and the others all had strange expressions. Victory was victory, but why had Lu Yin captured the Flame Sable and fled?
No one could figure out what Lu Yin was trying to do, and only Abel Phoenix could vaguely guess.
At the center of the Great Eastern Alliance's fleet, Lu Yin broke through the Astral Source Universe and walked out. The Flame Sable that was bound by the chains struggled frantically, but it had been attacked by the Hollow Palm and Ling Qiu, and then heavily injured by the Reaper Transformation, Gou Lian. At this point, the Flame Sable could only display a power level that was comparable to Elder He's, which was around 500,000. This was not enough to escape from Lu Yin, let alone when he was in the Reaper Transformation state.
Lu Yin took out a Heavenfire Stone and placed it next to the Flame Sable's mouth. "Spit fire."
The Flame Sable's small eyes stared sharply at Lu Yin with killing intent, but there was also an indescribable fear in the depths of its eyes.
"I said, spit fire!" Lu Yin barked.
"Human, are you trying to humiliate me?"
The Flame Sable spoke for the first time, and its voice was as sharp as its gaze.
Lu Yin calmly replied, "If you don't spit fire, you'll die."
The Flame Sable angrily replied, "Those three human Envoys were captured, but we didn't kill them."
"We just didn't kill them for now. Xu Qing intends to use them to break down my Great Eastern Alliance's will to fight, which is even more despicable than killing them. Furthermore, for their sake, I walked up to Xu Qing alone. Do you think that Xu Qing would have the guts to do such a thing for you?" Lu Yin mocked.
