160: Chapter 158 A Difference of Twenty Thousand Times!
Heran froze for a full ten seconds.
After ten seconds, the bewilderment on his face gradually faded, replaced by the irritation of someone who had been publicly mocked.
He ripped off his snow-covered white gloves and slammed them hard onto the ground.
His eyes turned cold once again.
"Mr. Lin, you are looking down on us far too much."
"Do you really think we are some uncivilized savages who have never seen the world, just like you?"
Heran raised his left wrist.
Beneath the cuff of his impeccably tailored suit, a mechanical bracer shimmering with silver-blue light was revealed.
"A Law Avatar manifesting as giant fingers?"
"I have seen too many such parlor tricks in lower-tier worlds."
He scoffed.
"You cultivators from remote worlds love to put on a brave front to intimidate others."
"In essence, it is nothing more than bluffing to cover up weakness."
Heran tapped his fingers on the bracer several times.
A beam of azure light shot into the sky.
"I will let you see the true foundation of the Boundary Sea civilization right now."
The beam spread out in mid-air, transforming into a massive holographic projection.
At the center of the projection, countless lines of code cascaded like a waterfall—cold, precise, and carrying the oppressive weight of a higher civilization.
Heran smoothed out his collar, which had been sliced by wind blades, and straightened his back again.
His gaze was icy and contemptuous.
It was not the look one gives an enemy.
It was more like looking at an asset about to be forcibly repossessed.
"This is Tian Shu, a Boundary-level supercomputer connected to the headquarters of the Myriad Realms Peace Corporation, with computing power covering one hundred and twenty-seven galaxies."
He lifted his chin.
"Tian Shu."
"Scan the target."
"Analyze the target's energy structure and evaluate the authenticity of his previous statement."
A cold, synthesized mechanical voice instantly resounded across the ice field.
[Command received.]
[Tian Shu connected.]
[Loading world information.]
[Deep scanning Primordial World native individual, codename: Lin Mo.]
[Energy level band scanning...]
[Analyzing Law origin...]
An azure fan-shaped light wave swept down from high above, spreading silently in all directions like ripples on water.
Lin Mo raised an eyebrow.
"Interesting."
He was actually curious to see what kind of tricks these guys could pull.
It was a perfect opportunity to understand the methods of the major powers in the Boundary Sea.
Three seconds later.
The holographic screen flashed a blinding red light.
The mechanical voice sounded again, speaking much faster than before.
[Scan complete.]
[Analysis report generated.]
[The target is located in a primary Primordial World; the world barrier is fragile, with a comprehensive energy concentration rating of E-class.]
[Based on the cosmic energy conservation model and the lower limit model of Law evolution:]
[The energy level of this world makes it impossible to gestate a physical body or a complete Law Avatar that exceeds 30,000 meters in size while simultaneously containing 3,000 types of advanced Laws.]
[Conclusion 1: The three columnar objects summoned by the target are actually composed of high-pressure source energy mixtures, not biological tissue.]
[Conclusion 2: The target is suspected of forcibly extracting Law fragments from a million miles around to complete a non-replicable burst of overdraft.]
[Final judgment: The target's statement "Those are three fingers" has 0% authenticity.]
[Credibility: 0.0000001%.]
[The target's current source energy has likely fallen below the warning line.]
[Judgment: Probability that the target is at the end of their rope: 99.98792%.]
The analysis results were delivered.
Heran let out a long sigh first.
It was as if the heavy stone on his chest had finally fallen.
Then, he threw his head back and laughed.
"Hahahaha!"
The laughter echoed across the ice field, filled with the satisfaction of exposing a lie.
"Mr. Lin, are you still going to struggle?"
Heran pointed at the holographic screen, his gaze turning contemptuous once more.
"This is the truth of the matter."
"No matter how you disguise it, you cannot deceive Tian Shu."
"Could it be that you can defy the law of conservation of energy? Create power out of thin air?"
He laughed even more brazenly.
"In front of a Boundary-level supercomputer, any little trick of yours has nowhere to hide!"
The sixty or seventy remaining Blue Fire Tribe warriors also crawled out of the snow pits one after another.
The dim blue flames on their foreheads burned violently once again.
Just a moment ago, they had been forced to flee in a sorry state by the three divine pillars.
A third of their companions had even died.
Now that the guy was at the end of his rope, he was still attempting to scare them off.
What they found even more unacceptable was that they had actually been afraid just now.
Shame!
Unforgivable shame!
Heran waved his hand abruptly.
"All Executors, listen up!"
"He is already exhausted!"
"Activate the Trans-dimensional Engine."
"At all costs, crush him completely!"
Murderous intent surged in Heran's eyes.
"I want to use this world to trade for my chance at advancement!"
"My Blue Fire Tribe will also rise to the next level!"
The Blue Fire Tribe warriors roared in unison.
The space rippled more violently than before.
A lethal blue three-dimensional folding net formed once again.
Murderous intent locked onto Lin Mo.
Not far away, Alliance Leader Jiang You's expression changed.
"Lin Mo, be careful!"
He held his staff high, preparing to forcibly intervene with the twenty-three Eight-Turn experts.
They knew that only Lin Mo was the hope of this world.
Even if they had to sacrifice these old bones, they had to protect Lin Mo.
The space blade in Qin Lan's palm condensed again.
Shen Yuntang gripped her long sword tightly, her gaze fixed on the blue fire net.
Cecilia, on the other hand, had the demeanor of someone watching a show.
She had seen Lin Mo's Law world with her own eyes; it was no surprise that he had such a massive Law Avatar.
The next second.
"Pfft."
Lin Mo couldn't help but laugh out loud.
He set down his teacup, patted Princess Ling Yun's hand, and signaled for her to leave.
Then, he stood up and stretched.
"I thought you were holding back some ultimate move."
"Making such a big fuss."
"It turns out, after all that, you just brought out an artificial idiot."
Heran's expression stiffened, and his face turned vicious.
"Mr. Lin, keep acting tough if you want; you won't be laughing in a moment."
Boom—!!!
Without any warning.
The sky over the entire West Pole Ice Field collapsed.
Not metaphorically.
It literally collapsed.
The dim sea of clouds was torn apart by an immeasurable force, and along with the storm in the high altitude, it was ground into nothingness.
The three pillars that had been planted diagonally into the ground began to tremble violently.
The next moment.
They rose from the ground.
The rock layers, ice, and clouds on the surface of the pillars peeled away layer by layer.
Everyone saw what was underneath.
Dark golden skin.
Ancient divine patterns.
And knuckles bulging like mountain ranges.
Boom!
The space in the east exploded.
A thumb as thick as a ten-thousand-mile mountain range crushed the void and forced its way into the present world.
Boom!
The clouds in the west collapsed.
A pinky finger, slightly thinner but equally tens of thousands of meters long, smashed through the sky and fell.
Five fingers were completely accounted for at this moment.
Immediately after.
Beneath the five giant fingers, a palm, vast as an independent continent, forcibly crushed the world barrier and descended upon everyone's heads.
It was a hand.
A real hand.
The palm prints were deep, like crisscrossing abyssal rifts.
Between the palm prints, over three thousand law flowers operated simultaneously.
Storms, thunder, frost, magma, devouring, space cutting...
Within each texture, it seemed as if a complete Law was hidden.
Just one hand.
It covered a million miles of the firmament.
At this moment, the Primordial World emitted a low groan under the unbearable weight.
Tens of thousands of miles away, mountains were flattened by the wind pressure.
The raging waves of the East Sea were forcibly pressed into a mirror surface.
Gravity within a radius of one hundred thousand miles began to spiral out of control, and space-time began to distort.
In mid-air.
Heran froze stiffly.
He saw a scene he would never forget for the rest of his life.
Beneath that heaven-covering giant hand, he was smaller than an ant.
The Boundary-level AI bracer on Heran's wrist flashed frantically.
[Warning! Warning!]
[Detected entity exceeding limits!]
[Energy level exceeds current world limit...]
[Rebuilding evaluation model...]
[Evaluation complete!]
[Current biological entity combat power evaluation: Level 3 Trans-limit! Extremely dangerous!]
[Our combat power evaluation: Level 1 Trans-limit! Discrepancy in energy index with target: 20,000 times!]
[Our win rate against it: 0.00%, probability of our survival after battle: 0.00%]
[Combat suggestion: Strategic retreat!!]
Amidst the ear-piercing siren.
Heran's eyes were filled with despair, his knees went weak, and he fell to his knees in mid-air.
Cold sweat soaked his silver formal wear.
"Two... 20,000 times..."
"No..."
"This is impossible..."
