289: Devouring gods, thunder tribulation buffet!

Under the gaze of those four pairs of eyes, filled with extreme horror, Lin Fan's hand passed through that layer of dark gold energy force field without any resistance.

There was no electric numbness, nor was there any burning pain.

It felt like reaching into a pool of warm water.

It was welcoming.

Because he had died once, this Restriction evolved from the Ancient God's power had already defaulted his aura to be 'one of its own'.

Lin Fan's fingertips lightly touched that drop of dark gold Divine Blood suspended in the Void Realm.

Hum—

An indescribable longing and resonance, originating from the deepest part of his Bloodline, instantly spread through his entire body.

The Overlord Saint Body let out an excited roar.

It was yearning, it was roaring, like a lost child finally seeing their source.

And that drop of Ancient God's Remnant Blood, which had been silent for billions of years, also trembled slightly the moment Lin Fan touched it.

A trace of an ancient, primordial, and supreme will seemed to wake up from an endless slumber.

Outside the force field, Ghost Hand and the other three had their minds completely shattered by the scene before them.

He... he went in?

Not only did he return from the dead, but he also walked directly into that protective force field that even made their hearts tremble?

What kind of monster is this!

"Quick... run!"

Ghost Hand's raspy voice carried a sob for the first time.

Greed, calculation, fanaticism... all emotions were completely devoured at this moment by a massive fear known as the 'unknown'.

However, it was already too late.

Inside the force field, Lin Fan looked at the Divine Blood right in front of him, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.

He didn't use any jade bottles to store it, nor did he use any secret methods to guide it.

He simply opened his mouth slowly.

Then, he took a fierce breath toward that drop of Ancient God's Remnant Blood!

Whoosh!

That drop of dark gold liquid, which could crush a Star Domain and contained world-ending Divine Might, turned into a streak of light and was swallowed cleanly into his stomach!

Without the slightest hesitation.

Without a hint of reverence.

It was like a thirsty traveler drinking a mouthful of spring water.

This scene became the last, most insane, and most cognition-shattering image Ghost Hand and the other three would ever see in their lives.

Boom!!!

The moment the Divine Blood entered his stomach.

Inside Lin Fan's body, it felt as if a singularity of the Big Bang had been detonated!

Indescribable violent power, like billions of volcanoes erupting simultaneously, instantly swept through every corner of his body!

Crack! Crack crack—

His skin was covered in spiderweb-like cracks in an instant; golden blood gushed out from the cracks, only to be evaporated by even more terrifying energy in the next second!

His bones let out an overburdened wail, snapping and shattering inch by inch!

His Meridians disintegrated piece by piece, like red-hot glass!

This wasn't absorption; this was destruction!

It was a total overwriting and rewriting of lower life forms by the essence of a higher-dimensional life!

However, at the very moment Lin Fan's body was about to completely disintegrate.

The Overlord Saint Body roared into operation!

That surging golden Qi and blood were no longer trying to absorb, but instead turned into billions of the strongest chains, forcibly 'suppressing' that violent Divine Blood power within his body in an incredibly arrogant and domineering manner!

"Fuse... for me!"

Lin Fan's Divine Soul let out an earth-shaking roar!

He wasn't passively enduring; he was actively driving it!

Using his body as the battlefield and his will as the commander, he forcibly made his Mortal body suppress this drop of Divine Blood!

And at this very moment.

Above the Divine Silence Ruins, that originally chaotic dark red nebula was instantly torn open into a massive hole by an invisible force.

In the endless dark Void Realm, masses of ink-black Tribulation Clouds appeared out of thin air, converging and rotating at an alarming speed, forming a Law vortex so massive it inspired despair, covering the entire Star Domain.

In the center of the vortex, purple-black lightning roared frantically like world-ending Dragons.

Body Integration Heavenly Tribulation!

Moreover, it was the most terrifying 'God-Punishment Tribulation' brought about by devouring a divine object that the world could not tolerate!

"Tribulation... Heavenly Tribulation?"

Ghost Hand, who was just about to flee, looked up at the world-destroying scene; his legs went weak, and he nearly collapsed to the ground.

He's going to... undergo tribulation here?!

Is he insane?!

A Refining Void Realm devouring Ancient God's blood and forcibly triggering the Body Integration Heavenly Tribulation... this isn't just seeking death, it's thinking he hasn't died creatively enough!

"An opportunity! This is our opportunity!" Beside Ghost Hand, the eyes of the Fake Monk were filled with a final trace of frantic greed, replacing his despair!

"He's being attacked from both inside and out by the Divine Blood and the Heavenly Tribulation; he's certain to die! If we take this chance to seize his Physical Body, that drop of Divine Blood will be ours!"

His words woke the others from their stupor!

Ghost Hand and the other three looked at each other and instantly made up their minds.

Wealth is found in danger!

They were just about to perform a secret method to rush toward the center shrouded in Divine Might and tribulation power.

Boom—!!!

A streak of purple Lightning Tribulation, only as thick as an arm, fell casually from the center of the vortex, as if it were just an appetizer before the main course.

Its target was Lin Fan.

However, just the aftermath of its leakage, not even one-ten-thousandth of its power, swept over the position where Ghost Hand and the other three were.

There were no screams.

There was no struggling.

Those four Law Hunters, who were powerful enough to dominate a region in the outside world, along with all the Magic Treasures on them, were annihilated silently like bubbles in the sunlight the moment they touched that purple lightning.

From their physical matter to their Divine Souls, they were wiped clean.

As if they had never existed.

And Lin Fan, at the center of the storm, was completely unaware of this.

His entire mind was immersed in the incredibly tragic 'war of suppression' inside his body.

Just then.

An aura even more terrifying than the Heavenly Tribulation and more ancient than the Divine Blood slowly woke from the deepest part of the Divine Silence Ruins.

It was as if a cosmic behemoth that had slept for billions of years had opened its eyes.

With Divine Blood washing him from within, Heavenly Tribulation striking from without, and a terrifying will beyond this world's understanding awakening!

A triple dead-end!

Any one of these would be enough to make a Body Integration expert vanish in an instant.

However, a trace of hearty laughter appeared on Lin Fan's face.

Come on then!

The more, the better!

Boom!!!

He suddenly threw back his head and opened his arms, allowing those purple-black Lightning Tribulations, each capable of destroying stars, to strike his already battered body!

Under the dual internal and external tempering of the Divine Blood power and the Law Lightning Tribulation, his Overlord Saint Body did not collapse but instead began a kind of ultimate sublimation!

Shatter, then reorganize!

The flesh burst by the Divine Blood and the bones split by the Lightning Tribulation were rapidly regenerated in a more perfect form under a higher level of power!

The golden blood gradually took on a hint of dark gold.

Every inch of bone began to be inscribed with ancient and mysterious Law divine runes.

His indestructible Body Integration Stage Bottleneck shattered like paper under the crushing force of these three pressures!

A profound and imposing aura, merging with the Laws of heaven and earth, erupted from his body!

Body Integration Stage!

It was done!

[Ding! Under the dual tempering of Divine Might and the Law Tribulation, the Overlord Saint Body has undergone an ultimate transformation! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a new Physique: Overlord Divine Body (Initial Stage)!]

As the System notification fell.

The Tribulation Clouds in the sky also seemed to have exhausted their power, reluctantly and slowly dispersing.

Lin Fan floated quietly in the Void Realm, feeling the reborn and unprecedentedly powerful strength within his body.

The injuries on his body had long since recovered; his new skin shimmered with a faint dark gold luster, like the most perfect work of art in the world.

However, the joy on his face only lasted for a moment.

It was completely interrupted by a sudden, suffocating pressure.

That awakened ancient will had completely locked onto him.

A grand, cold, and emotionless voice sounded directly in the depths of his Divine Soul, as if crossing endless time and space.

"Ant."

"Who allowed you... to touch my remains?"
