188: Chapter 188 Plundering the Divine General's Foundation! Karmic Blood Curse? System Slays a Cow Across Space!

In the core area of the Central Star Sea, above the main planet of the Shengong Galaxy.

"Cough, cough... You, how dare you humiliate me..."

On the ancient war chariot made of pure gold, the Eighth Divine General of the Great Sun Divine Dynasty, with hair as white as snow, was pinned down. Lin Que's combat boot, which seemed to contain the weight of ten million mountains, was stepped firmly on his chest.

His originally robust cultivation at the Third Level of the Dao Integration Realm had plummeted to rock bottom under the System's reverse soul-burning.

His Meridians were carbonized, and his Divine Soul was withered.

At this moment, apart from his mouth, he couldn't move even a single finger.

"Humiliate you?"

Lin Que held the ten-million-jin taichu world-fall heavy blade in one hand, his crimson cloak snapping in the cold wind of the galaxy ruins.

He looked down at this once-high-and-mighty Divine General, his tone calm without a single ripple.

"From the moment you stepped into this galaxy and called me a barbarian at every turn, you should have prepared yourself to be stepped on by me."

"My Great Sun Divine Dynasty... rules three thousand Star Domains in the Central Star Sea! His Majesty the Divine Emperor is an unsurpassed Dominator at the Late Stage of the Dao Integration Realm!"

Although the Eighth Divine General was weak, his eyes still held the inherent arrogance of one from a great power. He gritted his teeth and roared:

"If you dare to kill me, the dynasty's Karmic Jade Slip will shatter instantly!"

"When that time comes, not only you, but your army of a hundred thousand, and even everyone tainted by your Karma, will be crushed into cosmic dust by the dynasty's legions!"

Hearing this extremely vicious threat, the expressions of the Chen Family Old Ancestor, Zhao Xiao, and the others far away on the star destroyer couldn't help but change.

The heritage of the Great Sun Divine Dynasty was too terrifying.

Killing a Divine General was easy, but who wouldn't be wary of the full-scale retaliation of a super Empire that had ruled the Central Star Sea for tens of thousands of years?

However, Lin Que laughed.

"I love tough guys like you who, when facing death, still bring out your whole family as a shield."

Lin Que exerted a little force with his foot.

*Crack!*

The Red Gold Chainmail on the Eighth Divine General's chest shattered. The physical extreme weight of 220 million jin, even if only a sliver leaked out, crushed the Divine General's ribs inch by inch.

"Argh!!!"

The Divine General let out a miserable scream.

"Don't be in such a hurry to die. It would be too much of a waste to kill a Third Level Dao Integration Realm body just like that."

Lin Que slowly crouched down, a hint of greed flashing in his deep, heterochromatic eyes.

"[Blood Scripture]—Extreme Realm Furnace, open!"

Lin Que's palm pressed against the Eighth Divine General's Dantian, and his million-mile starry sky inner heaven and earth began to rotate with a roar.

He didn't absorb the mixed true essence; instead, he extremely precisely extracted the core sliver of the [Great Sun Law Dao Rhyme] within the Eighth Divine General's body!

This was the crystallization of tens of thousands of years of cultivation.

"You... you're extracting my Dao foundation?! Demon! You're a demon!!!"

The Eighth Divine General was terrified; he could feel his comprehension of the Laws of the Universe being forcibly stripped away.

The pure golden Dao rhyme flowed along Lin Que's arm into his inner heaven and earth.

The World Tree greedily swayed its branches and leaves, completely digesting this Third Level Dao Integration Realm heritage.

Lin Que closed his eyes, carefully feeling the changes in his Physical Body.

He had just broken through to the First Level of the Dao Integration Realm, and his strength had soared to 220 million jin. Although powerful, there was occasionally a slight obstruction in the flow of his blood and Qi.

Now, with the lubrication of this high-dimensional Dao rhyme, the bones and muscle fibers throughout his body emitted a comfortable low hum. His strength didn't blindly explode; instead, it became more rounded and refined.

The extreme quality of 220 million jin was finally polished like a piece of flawless primordial divine iron, controlled perfectly by his will.

"Phew... the taste isn't bad."

Lin Que stood up and clapped his hands in satisfaction.

His gaze swept over the Eighth Divine General's waist and he snatched away a dark-gold Storage Pouch.

Sending his Divine Sense inside, Lin Que's eyebrows rose slightly.

As expected of a Divine General of the Great Sun Divine Dynasty, the Storage Pouch contained over a trillion top-grade star sea coins alone, with mountains of various Dao Integration Realm Medicinal Pills and Formation Plates.

There was even a Star Map Jade Slip emitting high-dimensional spatial fluctuations, densely marked with the troop deployments and resource mines of the major powers in the Central Star Sea.

"With this, the upcoming robbery... no, the handover work, will be much more convenient."

Lin Que casually tossed the Storage Pouch into his inner heaven and earth.

Having done all this, Lin Que raised the worldfall heavy blade, reversed the blade, and aimed it at the Eighth Divine General's forehead.

Scouring complete; it was time to send this Divine General on his way.

Just as the blade was about to fall!

*Hum—!!!*

An extremely ancient Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant hanging from the Eighth Divine General's waist suddenly shattered without warning!

A terrifying pressure that surpassed the Third Level and even reached the Fifth Level of the Dao Integration Realm rose into the sky from the shattered pendant like a cosmic storm!

"Stop!!!"

A phantom of a golden emperor, tens of thousands of feet tall, suddenly condensed in the starry sky!

This phantom wore a Pingtian Crown and a Nine-Dragon Emperor Robe. His eyes seemed to contain two burning supernovae, exuding a star sea Supreme majesty that allowed no defiance!

"It's the Prince Protector of the Dynasty of the Great Sun Divine Dynasty! The Divine Emperor's younger brother!"

On the star destroyer, Zhao Xiao fell to his knees with a thud, his body trembling uncontrollably.

A projection of this level represented the core imperial will of the Great Sun Divine Dynasty!

"Frontier madman, if you dare touch my dynasty's Divine General, this Prince will execute your nine clans!"

The golden phantom glared at Lin Que. He didn't perform a physical attack; instead, his hands extremely quickly formed an ancient seal in the void.

"Imperial Forbidden Art—[Nine Nether Karmic Blood Curse]! Lock!"

In an instant, thousands of visible blood-colored chains appeared in the starry sky.

These chains ignored physical distance, wrapping directly around the Eighth Divine General's body before splitting into countless sources and lunging toward Lin Que's forehead!

This was an extremely sinister high-dimensional curse.

If Lin Que dared to kill the Eighth Divine General, this Karmic Blood Curse would instantly lock onto Lin Que's true spirit.

It wouldn't kill him immediately, but it would turn into an absolute "Heavenly Dao Decay Mark."

For the rest of his life, Lin Que would inevitably face Heart Demons during Breakthroughs. Even those around him, like Su Qingyu and the Chen Family Old Ancestor, would have their flesh and blood wither away within a hundred years due to the karmic connection!

"Hahaha... The Prince has acted!"

The Eighth Divine General, slumped on the ground, laughed maniacally as if grabbing onto a life-saving straw.

"Lin Que! You can't escape this Karmic Blood Curse! As long as you kill me, you and your people will all be buried with me! Be a good boy and release me, come back to the dynasty to plead for mercy, and maybe you'll be left with a whole corpse!"

Threatening with the lives of friends and family?

Using Karma to disgust people?

Facing the blood-colored chains howling through the sky and the high-and-mighty projection of the Prince.

Lin Que stood his ground, the ten-million-jin heavy blade in his hand didn't even tremble.

His crimson cloak fluttered in the karmic storm, and a look of extremely cold mockery appeared in his deep, heterochromatic eyes.

"I don't have a very good temper."

"What I hate most is people pointing at my nose and using the people around me to threaten me."

Lin Que didn't even take half a step back.

He even actively opened his true spirit's defenses, allowing the vicious chains of the Karmic Blood Curse to pierce into his body!

"Haha! He's given up resistance! He's been cursed!"

The Eighth Divine General was ecstatic.

The Prince's phantom also snorted coldly:

"At least you're sensible. Since you've been struck by this Prince's blood curse, be a good boy and..."

"Is that so?"

Lin Que lowered his head slightly, his lips curling into an extremely cruel, demonic grin.

In his mind, he snapped his fingers with a crisp sound!

"System."

"I'll take the Imperial Luck sent by this old geezer."

"As for the side effect of this 'nine clans implication, true spirit decay' Karmic Blood Curse..."

Lin Que suddenly looked up, his gaze like two sharp swords piercing through the arrogant Prince's phantom in mid-air.

"Follow those damn chains and send it back the way it came!"

"Full power! Reflect it back to his original body without any discount!"

"Since he loves implicating nine clans so much, let the entire imperial family of the Great Sun Divine Dynasty taste the flavor of this family-ending blood curse together!!!"

[Ding! side effect transfer system activated with maximum priority!]

[Detected high-dimensional conceptual debuff: Nine Nether Karmic Blood Curse (True Spirit Locking Decay, Nine Clans Karmic Implication, Heart Demon Soul Devouring).]

[Locking transfer target: Source of the blood curse caster—Prince Protector of the Dynasty of the Great Sun Divine Dynasty (Original Body)!]

[Logic reconstruction complete! Ignoring space and projection barriers! Karmic lines have been perfectly reversed!]

[Reverse implication mode, bombardment beginning!!]

*Hum—!!!*

Under the intervention of the System's dimensionality reduction strike.

The blood-colored chains that had pierced into Lin Que's body instantly turned into the purest golden energy and were swallowed by the [Blood Scripture] in one gulp.

Meanwhile, the tens-of-thousands-of-feet-tall Prince's phantom froze in that instant!

...

Hundreds of millions of light-years away from the Shengong Galaxy.

Great Sun Divine Dynasty, Central Imperial Pole Star.

Deep within a magnificent prince's manor, the Prince Protector of the Dynasty, who was remotely performing the secret art in a seclusion room, suddenly snapped his eyes open.

"What's going on?! Why are the karmic lines of the blood curse... Arghhhhhh!!!"

Without warning!

This top-tier royal at the Fifth Level of the Dao Integration Realm suddenly let out a shrill, miserable scream!

To his horror, he saw his hands and body instantly covered in dense, blood-colored chain patterns!

This was the [Nine Nether Karmic Blood Curse] he had cast himself, and it had actually ignored the distance of space to be planted precisely in the depths of his own true spirit!

Not only that!

Because this secret art carried the vicious attribute of "implicating nine clans."

Within the prince's manor, tens of thousands of direct descendants with imperial blood simultaneously spat out a mouthful of black blood. Their Divine Souls instantly withered, and their Lifespans began to plummet!

"No!! Backlash?! How could there be a backlash?! What kind of Demonic Technique did that Lin Que use?!!"

The Prince Protector of the Dynasty slammed against the walls of the secret room in a frenzy. He tried to forcibly cut off the Karma, only to find that the priority of this backlash actually superseded the Laws of the Heavenly Dao!

...

Back in the Shengong Galaxy.

*Crack, crack, crack—*

The Prince's phantom in mid-air, due to the severe injury to its original body, underwent a violent distortion before shattering like broken glass, collapsing and dissipating into the space as a shower of light.

Before disappearing, it left behind only a roar full of despair and fear echoing through the void.

This time.

The Eighth Divine General lying on the chariot was completely dumbfounded.

He stared blankly at the sky, his mind a complete blank.

The Prince's projection shattered? The Prince's original body suffered the blood curse backlash? Is this something a human can even do?!

"It seems your backer has fallen."

Lin Que's cold voice pulled the Eighth Divine General's thoughts back to reality.

Lin Que stood on the chariot, holding the ten-million-jin taichu world-fall heavy blade in one hand.

The physical extreme pressure of 220 million jin was no longer hidden. A shadow of death, as tangible as substance, completely enveloped the Divine General.

"No... don't... I am a Divine General of the dynasty. If you kill me, it will trigger a full-scale interstellar war..."

The Eighth Divine General finally broke down, begging for mercy while weeping.

"Full-scale interstellar war?"

Lin Que sneered and raised the heavy blade high.

"That's perfect."

"I haven't destroyed a real divine dynasty in the Central Star Sea yet."

"Swish—!"

Without any hesitation.

The ten-million-jin heavy blade turned into a dark-gold streak, flashing through the air cleanly!

*Pfft!*

The Eighth Divine General's head flew into the sky. His battered body at the Dao Integration Realm, losing the support of his Divine Soul, was directly shaken into a mist of blood by the physical pressure of the primordial heavy blade.

Completely annihilated.

Dead silence.

Whether it was the army of a hundred thousand on the star destroyer or the Loose Cultivator spies hiding behind meteorites, everyone held their breath.

He killed him!

This man named Lin Que had actually publicly beheaded the Eighth Divine General of the Great Sun Divine Dynasty!

This was truly poking a hole in the heavens!

Lin Que sheathed his blade and stood tall.

He looked down at the pure gold chariot pulled by nine Ancient Fire Dragons.

This was an extremely flashy means of transportation.

He stepped onto the chariot's shaft and looked at the nine trembling fire dragons.

"From today on, your surname is Lin. Any objections?"

The nine fire dragons didn't dare to have any objections. They let out a whimper in unison and submissively lowered their noble heads.

Lin Que stood on the chariot, his crimson cloak dancing wildly in the stellar wind.

He didn't rush to leave; instead, he turned around and looked at the hundred-thousand-strong army on the star destroyer with his deep, heterochromatic eyes.

"Su Qingyu, Old Chen, Zhao Xiao!"

Lin Que's voice wasn't loud, but through the robust Laws of his inner Universe, it spread throughout the starry sky for millions of miles.

"Your subordinates are here!!!"

The three of them knelt on one knee with great excitement, and the hundred thousand Dragon Cavalry roared in unison, their momentum shaking the heavens.

Lin Que raised the primordial heavy blade, pointing it directly at the most brilliant Star Domain at the core of the Central Star Sea.

"Rest for half a day and digest the resources from Heavenly God Heavy Industry."

"Then."

"The army sets out to strike directly at the Great Sun Divine Dynasty's Planet Huangji!"

"From today on, the rules of this Central Star Sea will be set by me, Lin Que!"
