302: The Immortal Alliance's reputation shakes the star field
The Main Control Room remained deathly silent.
Lin Fan looked at the vast, desolate, yet indestructible "Immortal World" on the light screen, and for the first time, he fell into a contemplation akin to that of a creator.
Create life?
Countless species he had seen in his previous life flashed through his mind.
However, the System's alert sound interrupted his thoughts.
[Warning: It is detected that the Host's actions have caused irreversible effects on the current Universe. The Universe's will is currently undergoing correction and backlash... The "Great Calamity" process has accelerated.]
Lin Fan's brows lifted slightly.
Is the Great Calamity coming?
He turned around, his gaze sweeping over Zhao Linger, Fatty Zhang, and the others, who were still in a dazed state.
"Wake up."
His calm voice was like a basin of cold water poured over their burning Divine Souls.
Zhao Linger and Fatty Zhang shuddered violently, breaking free from the shock of that creation miracle. The way they looked at Lin Fan had completely changed.
It was no longer looking at a powerhouse, or even a benefactor.
It was looking up at a living god walking among mortals.
"Bo... Boss..." Fatty Zhang's lips trembled. He wanted to say something, but he realized his language System had completely collapsed.
Lin Fan did not pay attention to their reaction; he just waved his hand casually.
A golden decree, containing supreme will, slowly condensed before him.
On the decree, there were no words, only an ancient and domineering mark—the embodiment of the two characters "Immortal".
"Zhao Linger."
"Here!" Zhao Linger instinctively straightened her body, her voice crisp.
"From today on, you are the Deputy Sect Master of the Immortal Alliance, in charge of the Alliance's internal affairs, resource allocation, and the education of Disciples."
Zhao Linger shuddered, looking into Lin Fan's calm eyes. A warm current surged in her heart, and she nodded heavily.
"Yes!"
"Fatty Zhang."
"Boss! I'm here!" Fatty Zhang shuddered and quickly puffed out his plump chest.
"You are the Grand Manager of External Affairs for the Immortal Alliance, responsible for intelligence, recruitment, and... cleaning up trash."
"I guarantee to complete the mission!" Fatty Zhang was so excited his face flushed red.
Cleaning up trash?
He understood!
Didn't this mean that whoever dared to defy them, Boss would beat them into trash, and then he would be responsible for collecting the spoils of war?
He loved this kind of work!
After finishing all this, Lin Fan turned his gaze back to the golden decree.
His Divine Thought attached itself to it.
The next instant.
Boom—!!!
Centered on Qingmu Star, a vast will that could not be described in words, like a storm sweeping across the sea of stars, erupted and spread in all directions!
This barren fringe of the Universe, and the dozens of surrounding Star Domains.
Whether it was a prosperous cultivation planet, a Sect of the Demonic Path hidden in an asteroid belt, or a massive merchant guild wandering in the sea of stars...
Every existence above the Soul Transformation Stage suddenly raised their heads at this moment, looking at the starry sky in horror!
Their Divine Souls were frantically sounding warnings!
Immediately after.
Above the firmament of countless planets, in front of the mountain gates of countless Sects, on the light screens of the flagships of countless fleets...
Space rippled like water.
Golden decrees appeared out of thin air!
On the decrees, that "Immortal" mark exuded a domineering Aura that one dared not look directly at.
A grand and indifferent voice sounded directly in the Divine Souls of all the powerhouses.
"I, Lin Fan."
"Today, I establish the 'Immortal Alliance' on Qingmu Star."
"The places reached by this decree shall all be the territory of the Immortal Alliance."
"Within ten days, ten thousand Sects shall come to pay homage. Those who submit will receive protection. Those who oppose..."
The voice paused.
"Die."
The word "Die," like a thunderclap from the Nine Heavens, exploded in the minds of all the powerhouses across dozens of Star Domains!
Domineering!
Arrogant!
Unreasonable to the extreme!
After a brief silence, the entire fringe of the Universe completely exploded!
"What is this? Immortal Alliance? I've never even heard of it!"
"Are they crazy? They want to rule dozens of Star Domains with just one decree? Who does he think he is? An Ancient Immortal Emperor?"
"Qingmu Star? Isn't that the backwater that the Heavenly Charm Sect and Shadow Hall jointly attacked? Could those two be playing tricks?"
In a star System named "Iron Bone Star Domain".
Inside a magnificent palace built from giant beast bones, a giant, one hundred zhang tall with muscles knotted like mountain ranges, looked at the golden decree floating before him and let out a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering roar of laughter.
"Hahahaha! Ten thousand Sects come to pay homage? What big talk!"
He was the leader of the Iron Bone Alliance, a powerhouse at the Body Integration Middle Stage who had attained the Dao through his Physical Body, Old Ancestor Tieshan!
"A rat hiding its head and showing its tail dares to spout such nonsense! You want me to pay homage to you? Are you worthy!"
A flash of brutality crossed Old Ancestor Tieshan's eyes. He suddenly stretched out his giant hand and grabbed fiercely toward the golden decree!
He wanted to crush this ridiculous decree in front of the entire Star Domain and make that guy named Lin Fan lose all face!
However, the moment his hand was about to touch the decree.
A sudden change occurred!
The sky of the entire Iron Bone Star Domain darkened without warning.
It was not dark clouds blocking the sun.
It was an absolute darkness where light was swallowed and the Law was twisted.
A deathly Aura, so terrifying that it made even Old Ancestor Tieshan, a powerhouse of the Body Integration Stage, stand on end, descended from the sky!
He looked up abruptly.
And then, he saw... a scene he would never forget in his life.
In the depths of that endless darkness, a terrifying phantom composed of broken star Systems and dead divine kingdoms slowly emerged.
In one corner of that phantom, a broken giant bone, stretching for unknown light-years, lay quietly there.
Just a wisp of Aura emanating from that bone pressed down on his powerful Physical Body, which was capable of shaking stars, causing it to emit an unbearable "creaking" sound!
The throne beneath his feet, forged from the skulls of Vicious Beasts at the Body Integration Stage, instantly turned into powder!
"Pfft—"
Old Ancestor Tieshan spat out a mouthful of blood. His whole body felt as if it had been struck by lightning, and his massive frame uncontrollably knelt to the ground, his eyes filled with nothing but endless horror and fear!
"Di... Divine Bone..."
"Wha... What the hell is that thing!"
It wasn't just him.
At this moment, all the Sects and forces that had been mocking and clamoring earlier fell into a deathly silence.
Those Old Ancestors and Sect Masters, every single one of them, were all lying on the ground, trembling, not daring to even breathe loudly.
The phantom of the Divine Silence Ruins only appeared for an instant before slowly fading away.
The sky returned to brightness.
But that golden decree became even more dazzling and heavier than before!
The entire fringe of the Universe was deathly silent.
No one dared to show the slightest disrespect to that decree again.
However, just when everyone thought this matter would end with this absolute deterrence.
Old Ancestor Tieshan, kneeling on the ground, his face twisted by fear, slowly revealed a trace of ferocity and madness.
He lifted his head abruptly, staring fixedly at the decree, his Divine Thought turning into a roar that echoed through the starry sky!
"It's an illusion! It must be an illusion!"
"You think you can scare me with this little trick? Dream on!"
"If you have the guts, descend in your true form! I will tear you apart with my own hands!"
This powerhouse of Body Refining had actually forcibly withstood that fear stemming from the level of life and converted it into rage!
He firmly believed that it was just some extremely sophisticated illusion attack, and the opponent's true form could not possibly be that terrifying!
His roar made countless watching forces pause.
That's right, what if it was just bluffing?
However, this time, Lin Fan didn't even have the interest to project a phantom.
On Qingmu Star, inside the base's Main Control Room.
Lin Fan looked at the muscular giant still roaring on the light screen, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.
"Hard-headed?"
He extended a finger, pointed at the light screen, and tapped it lightly across the endless Star Domain.
[Law Simulation—Space Cutting.]
...
Iron Bone Star Domain.
Old Ancestor Tieshan was still clamoring frantically.
"Come on! You coward! Don't you dare come out!"
*Ssh.*
A black thread, imperceptible and a hundred times thinner than a strand of hair, appeared silently in the outer space of the Iron Bone Star Domain.
It had no astonishing Aura, no fluctuations of the Law.
It just "slashed" past that point.
It slashed past the huge satellite, thousands of miles in diameter, which was part of the Iron Bone Alliance's defense System in orbit.
Then, the black thread disappeared.
Nothing happened.
Old Ancestor Tieshan froze for a moment, then laughed even more wildly.
"What? No more tricks? Is that it?"
His laughter still echoed in the palace.
The next second.
His pupils contracted violently!
Everyone's gaze looked toward the sky in horror.
That huge metal satellite was split into two halves from the middle, extremely smoothly.
The cut was as smooth as a mirror.
It could even clearly reflect Old Ancestor Tieshan's face, which was frozen in extreme shock and disbelief.
The two halves of the satellite, under the influence of gravity, began to slowly shift apart, and then, with earth-shattering momentum, smashed down toward the planet below!
The entire Iron Bone Alliance was in total chaos!
"It's over! Run!"
"The Old Ancestor has caused a huge disaster!"
Old Ancestor Tieshan was completely stunned.
He stared blankly at the two halves of the satellite falling, then looked at the decree still emitting a faint golden light in front of him. A chill shot straight from his tailbone to his crown!
Across endless Star Domains...
With a single thought, cutting a satellite...
This was not an illusion!
This was not a Divine Ability!
This was divine punishment!
"Thump!"
This time, Old Ancestor Tieshan did not hesitate at all. His massive body threw itself heavily onto the ground in a full prostration, knocking his head frantically toward the golden decree, his Divine Thought filled with sobbing and pleading.
"Immortal, spare my life! Old Ancestor, spare my life! It is I who was blind and did not recognize Mount Tai! I deserve to die!"
"This humble one is willing to surrender! The Iron Bone Alliance is willing to offer everything! I only beg the Immortal to calm your anger!"
While wailing, he seemed to remember something and hurriedly took out an ancient star map made of unknown beast skin from his Magic Treasure, respectfully holding it up with Divine Power.
"Immortal! This is an ancient star map that this humble one obtained by chance! It records a 'Land of Heavenly Condemnation'! It is said that a terrifying mutation is occurring there, and even existences at the Immortal level have instantly turned into fly ash upon approaching it. This humble one dares not keep it for myself and is willing to offer it to the Immortal, only begging... begging you to spare my life!"
Inside the Main Control Room, Lin Fan's Divine Thought swept over the star map.
When he saw the four ancient characters "Land of Heavenly Condemnation" highlighted on the star map.
On his calm, unruffled face, finally, a playful arc slowly curled.
