186: Chapter 186 Counter-Attack Formation? Sending the Sect Master to his death!

Core area of the Central Star Sea,

Outer periphery of the Shengong Galaxy.

In the pitch-black vacuum of the Universe, the deathly silence was broken by a tooth-aching grinding sound.

Lin Que gripped the hilt of the [taichu world-fall heavy blade] with both hands.

This peerless weapon, weighing ten million jin, was slowly raised above his head.

There were no sky-high flames, nor any brilliant flashes of lightning.

Only beneath his skin, when the thirty-six Starfall Apertures of the **Great Desolation Star-Fall Body** operated at full power, a low roar like deep-sea undercurrents resonated.

Two hundred million jin of terrifying physical mass was compressed to the extreme at this moment.

The Void Realm around Lin Que, unable to withstand such dense gravity, became like a crumpled rag, showing visible distortion and collapse.

"Open up."

With cold eyes, Lin Que suddenly exerted force from his waist, driving his arms to swing the heavy blade, slashing down fiercely toward the dark-gold shield that enveloped three hundred planets!

"Dong—!!!"

There was no deafening explosion, only a muffled thud so profound it felt like a strike upon the very heart of the star sea.

At the moment the heavy blade made contact with the [Great Array of Astral Extinction], a visible layer of translucent physical shockwave spread outward frantically in a circular shape.

Everywhere it passed, the asteroid belts along the way were instantly turned to dust.

Inside the shield.

The three hundred steel planets of the Shengong Galaxy trembled violently under this strike!

Countless towering mechanical towers collapsed with a bang, and a groan of being overwhelmed issued from deep within the planetary crusts.

"Hold on! Hold on for this Sect Master!!!"

Sect Master Sect Master Tian Feng, standing on the defense tower of the main planet, felt his blood and Qi surge from the shock force transmitted through the shield, and a trace of blood leaked from the corner of his mouth.

But as he looked at the dark-gold shield, which although severely dented, had not shattered, a wild joy of surviving a disaster erupted in his eyes.

"Hahaha! Lin Que! You are just one person after all! This Great Astral Array draws upon the core energy of three hundred planets. How can you possibly break it?!"

Sect Master Tian Feng wiped the blood from his mouth, his expression becoming incredibly sinister. He suddenly formed hand seals and slammed them onto the core hub of the Formation eye.

"Extinction Backlash, kill him for me!"

Buzz—!

On the surface of the dented dark-gold shield, primordial divine runes flickered wildly.

The Formation operated to its limit, absorbing and reversing the 210 million jin of terrifying kinetic energy Lin Que had just unleashed without missing a drop, turning it into a destructive counter-shock force. It flowed back along the edge of the taichu world-fall heavy blade, like a frenzied starry beast, pouring madly into Lin Que's hands and chest!

This was the ultimate trump card of Heavenly God Heavy Industry!

The greater your strength, the more lethal the Formation's reflection!

This power was enough to instantly shatter any unprepared Dao Integration Realm expert into a mist of blood!

"Die! Be crushed into meat paste by your own brute force!"

The Elders in the hall stared intently at the light screen, waiting for the image of Lin Que's body exploding.

However.

Lin Que, standing in the vacuum of the Universe, felt the world-destroying repulsive force coming from the blade hilt. Instead of letting go and retreating, a mocking sneer curled on his lips.

"One hundred percent physical damage reflection?"

"I already got tired of this stupid trick back in Skeleton Star City at the frontier."

Lin Que's deep, heterochromatic eyes locked onto Sect Master Tian Feng, who was laughing wildly at the center of the Formation eye, through the translucent shield.

In his mind, he crisply rang the System!

"System, time to work."

"I don't want to touch a single drop of this counter-shock force from the strike."

"Package it in full, precision guidance!"

"Stuff it into this Sect Master's internal organs and let him have a good taste of what a two hundred million jin heavy hammer blooming in his belly feels like!"

[Ding! side effect transfer system has been activated with the highest priority!]

[Detected high-dimensional Formation debuff: Great Astral Extinction Reflection (Absolute physical counter-shock, organ annihilation, bone shattering).]

[Locked transfer target: Controller of the Formation eye core—Sect Master of Heavenly God Heavy Industry, Sect Master Tian Feng!]

[Logic reconstruction complete! Ignoring the Formation's one-way barrier! Karma lines have been reversed and bound!]

[Damage reflection airdrop mode, bombardment beginning!!]

Shua—!

Under the System's high-dimensional intervention, which completely ignored the Laws of physics, an utterly absurd thing happened.

Lin Que's hands gripping the blade hilt didn't even tremble in the slightest.

That overwhelming counter-shock force, the moment it touched his skin, was like a clay ox entering the sea, vanishing without a trace.

Meanwhile, inside the shield.

"Haha... *hiccup*!"

Sect Master Tian Feng's wild laughter abruptly got stuck in his throat.

There was no attack trajectory, not a single ripple of True Essence.

He only felt an indescribably violent and destructive force suddenly appear out of thin air deep within his chest!

It was a full 210 million jin of pure physical kinetic energy, exploding without reservation directly within his heart, lungs, and Meridians!

"This... what is this power... No!!!"

Terrified, Sect Master Tian Feng lowered his head.

Under the horrified gazes of the dozens of surrounding Elders, Sect Master Tian Feng's tough Physical Body at the Peak of Void Returning expanded bizarrely, like a balloon filled with ten thousand times its capacity of high-pressure gas.

"Sect Master?! What's wrong with you?!"

"Bang—!!!"

Before he could even utter a complete last word.

The dignified current Sect Master of Heavenly God Heavy Industry was as fragile as a thin sheet of paper before this internal force that appeared out of nowhere.

His body exploded from the inside out into a blinding mist of crimson blood! Bone fragments and organ pieces splattered all over the surrounding Elders.

Instant kill!

Through an ultimate shield the scale of three hundred planets, a single strike didn't break the turtle shell, but it vibrated the operator hiding inside into dust!

With Sect Master Tian Feng's tragic death, the Formation eye hub lost control.

"Crack... crash!"

That indestructible dark-gold shield, due to the short-circuiting of the energy center, let out a wail and collapsed like a shattered eggshell, dissipating into the space as a rain of light.

The gates to the Shengong Galaxy were completely wide open.

"The... the Sect Master exploded?!"

"Monster! That guy isn't human at all! Run!"

The entire Heavenly God Heavy Industry completely collapsed.

Elders and Disciples fled frantically like headless flies, not even caring about the paralyzed Old Ancestor Tianmie in the hall.

"The turtle shell is broken; the scenery is actually quite nice."

Lin Que put away the taichu world-fall heavy blade and took a step forward, teleporting directly above the main planet's hall square.

He didn't go to hunt down those fleeing lackeys.

A Demon Venerable's vision was never focused on such ants.

His gaze fell upon the Formation hub in the center of the square, which was frantically spewing out planetary core energy due to the shield's rupture.

That was the energy of three hundred planets modified by primordial Formations, extremely pure and heavy.

Lin Que sat cross-legged, hovering above the hub, his bright red cloak spreading out like blood.

"Blood Scripture—Devouring Heaven and Earth!"

Boom!

The one-million-mile internal Universe within Lin Que's Dantian roared to life!

He transformed into a greedy black hole, swallowing the vast planetary core energy—originally used to maintain the shield—into his body like a whale gulping water!

Pure stellar core energy flowed through his Meridians, washing his bone marrow and flesh over and over again.

Lin Que closed his eyes, calming his mind and heart.

The sense of power instability from just breaking through to the Dao Integration Realm was squeezed out of his body bit by bit under the pressure of this heavy energy. His extreme Physical Body of two hundred million jin became increasingly firm and restrained.

202 million jin... 205 million jin... 210 million jin!!!

Half an hour later, after the light of the three hundred planets had dimmed by a third, Lin Que cut off the devouring with satisfaction.

He slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air. Not only had his cultivation firmly stabilized at the **[First Level of the Dao Integration Realm]**, but his physical foundation had also become unfathomably deep.

"The Lord is mighty! Heavenly God Heavy Industry is now leaderless; the army of a hundred thousand can take over this star System at any time!"

The star destroyer sailed into the airspace of the main planet, as Chen Family Old Ancestor and Zhao Xiao respectfully sent voice transmissions for instructions.

"Take over? There's no need for that."

Lin Que stood up, his deep gaze penetrating the atmosphere of the Shengong Galaxy to look into the far reaches of the starry sky.

"I only came here to flatten this weapons factory. The real big fish has only just surfaced."

At the very moment Lin Que's voice fell.

"Sla—!!!"

The vacuum of space at the periphery of the Shengong Galaxy was suddenly and domineeringly torn open from the center by a pair of illusory giant hands entwined with golden flames!

A vast aura, several times more terrifying than that of the previous Heavenly God Heavy Industry Old Ancestor and carrying the pressure of an absolute superior, poured down upon the entire star System like a golden galaxy hanging upside down from the Nine Heavens!

"What madman dares to destroy a subordinate Sect of my Great Sun Divine Dynasty in the Central Star Sea?!"

A majestic voice, like a divine decree, exploded in the depths of everyone's Soul.

Immediately after, nine primordial fire dragons, each ten thousand zhang long and burning with solar true fire, pulled a luxurious ancient war chariot made of pure gold as it slowly emerged from the space rift.

Standing on the chariot was a burly man wearing red-gold chainmail and holding a Fangtian Painted Halberd.

His eyes were like torches, and he was surrounded by nine halos of Dao Integration Laws, appearing like a true scorching sun descending!

Great Sun Divine Dynasty, Eighth Divine General!

A genuine top-tier expert at the third level of the Dao Integration Realm!

Seeing the world-shaking Eighth Divine General, the faces of Chen Family Old Ancestor and the others instantly turned as pale as paper.

The pressure brought by such a legendary figure was truly despair-inducing.

However, Lin Que, standing above the square.

Facing the brilliant sun-like pressure of the Divine General.

Not only did he not shrink back in the slightest, but a flame of Battle Intent unlike any before ignited in his heterochromatic eyes. He gripped the ten-million-jin taichu world-fall heavy blade with one hand, pointing the tip directly at the sky.

"The one to deliver the final rites has arrived."

A wild and arrogant Demon Venerable's grin curled on Lin Que's lips:

"You ask who I am?"

"I am your fated... Living Yama!"
