198: Imperial Throne
Deep within the Forbidden Ground of the Lin Familys Small World.
Chaos Qi, like obedient subjects, encircled the figure in the center, which resembled an ancient, unmoving rock.
Lin Dao sat cross-legged, his aura seemingly present and absent, as if he had merged with the entire Chaos World.
Suddenly, his eyes, which had been closed for an unknown number of years, snapped open!
In his left eye, a chaotic galaxy was born and extinguished, evolving the Reincarnation of the Universe, profound and vast.
Within his right eye, however, was a pure, ultimate darkness that seemed capable of devouring all light and hope. Icy demonic intent flowed like a tangible substance, carrying an indifference that viewed all living beings as mere ants.
The instant he opened his eyes, every living being in the entire Primal Ancient Realm, no matter where they were, inexplicably felt a pang in their heart, as if a slumbering world-destroying demon god had cast a glance from the endless abyss.
This feeling came and went quickly, yet it caused countless powerful individuals to break out in cold sweat.
Lin Dao's gaze penetrated layers of spatial barriers, ignoring the isolation of the Emperors Road, and landed directly on the ultimate battlefield where the Nine Steles and Emperor Altar were located.
Everything happening there unfolded clearly before his eyes like a scroll:
Chaotic currents raged, and Divine Ability light tore through everything.
Lin Huan's Primal Origin Body roared, engaging in close-quarters combat with the Successor of the Chaos Body. Each collision made the Heavenly Steles tremble, as Primordial Beginning Qi and Chaos Law eroded each other, making it difficult to determine who was superior.
Lin Hao's dust-slaying sword Intent soared to the heavens, clashing with Gu Changge's Supreme Bone Divine Ability. Sword light and the Hand of the Heavens intertwined, turning that part of the Void Realm into a chaotic mess.
Ye Chen's Ancient Desolate Sacred Body shone with golden light, withstanding the six Reincarnation whirlpools of the Reincarnation Body. His vital Qi was like a roaring furnace, and his Battle Intent tore through the firmament.
Lin Qingyi and Jiang Li merged in their Flying Immortal state, immortal light like a silk ribbon, resisting the crushing force of the Yin-Yang Origin.
Lin Zhan's Dragon roars echoed, as he battled a true Dragon hatchling, Dragon blood spilling into the Chaos... The other Lin Family Prodigies, along with ancient Emperor's Sons, Forbidden Ground Sovereigns, and reclusive Successors, all fought with bloodshot eyes, unleashing all their Divine Abilities and revealing their trump cards. Quasi-Emperor blood continuously splattered across the sky, and Laws crumbled, turning into nourishment for the Emperor Altar. The scene was utterly tragic!
Throughout the entire Primal Ancient Realm, all powerful individuals who could glimpse even a sliver of the Emperors Road's end felt their minds sway and were left breathless.
This scene was too shocking; it was the true final battle of the Emperors Road, the ultimate showdown that would determine the格局 of this era!
"The first emperor's seat..."
The demonic intent in Lin Dao's right eye flickered slightly, carrying a hint of cold interest.
He could clearly see that the illusory emperor's seat at the center of the Nine Steles was solidifying at an unprecedented speed under the collision of countless Quasi-Emperors' Laws and the irrigation of their vital Qi!
The first to sit upon this seat would undoubtedly gain the greatest advantage and Luck, a significance that was extraordinary.
With his current power, a single thought would be enough to easily interfere with the Emperors Road, or even directly pave the way for a Lin Family disciple and forcibly seize the emperor's seat.
The domineering nature and desire for control brought by the Supreme Demonic Body stirred within him, and the darkness in his right eye seemed about to spread.
However, the chaotic galaxy in his left eye continued to flow steadily, representing his true heart and rationality.
"The path must be walked by oneself. The Emperor must be contended for by oneself."
He murmured to himself, his voice carrying a metallic, grinding coldness, yet also containing an undeniable resolve.
The restless demonic intent was forcefully suppressed.
He saw Lin Huan's Primal Origin becoming more refined during the fierce battle, subtly touching upon deeper mysteries; he saw Lin Hao's Sword Heart becoming purer and more radiant in life-and-death combat; he saw Ye Chen's Sacred Body bursting forth with greater potential under extreme pressure... This was their tribulation, and also their fortune.
If he intervened, he would be severing their Dao path.
He could be their strongest backing, intervening when they truly faced絕境, but he would never, while they could still fight, deprive them of the opportunity to prove themselves.
Thus, he remained seated in the Chaos of the Forbidden Ground, like an indifferent Heavenly Dao, quietly 'watching' the bloody feast at the end of the Emperors Road that would decide countless destinies.
The demonic intent in his right eye and the Chaos in his left eye flickered alternately, showing that his heart was not entirely calm, but his will always controlled everything.
During this observation, the emperor's seat at the center of the Nine Steles grew brighter and brighter, its solidification already exceeding seventy percent!
A complete and flawless Emperor Dao might began to permeate, driving everyone in the fierce battle to madness!
The chance to be the first to truly touch, or even sit upon, that emperor's seat, might be in the very next instant!
Everyone's attacks instinctively poured towards the emperor's seat, making the chaotic battle even more tumultuous and cruel!
It was at this moment that Lin Huan, who had been in a stalemate with the Successor of the Chaos Body, suddenly burst forth with resolute light in his eyes. He actually endured a Chaos palm print from his opponent, spitting out blood, but used the force to shoot forward like a meteor, breaking through several Divine Ability obstructions first, and sped towards the radiant emperor's seat!
"The emperor's seat... is mine!"
The Primordial Imperial Mountain Emperor's Son roared, his Imperial Dao Dragon Qi transforming into shackles that coiled towards Lin Huan.
"Don't even think about it!"
Gu Changge abandoned Lin Hao, his Supreme Bone glowing, and an Upper Heaven Tribulation Light arrived later but faster!
The Successor of the Chaos Body, the Successor of the Reincarnation Body, the Yin-Yang siblings... almost all the top powerful individuals, at this moment, temporarily aimed their targets at Lin Huan, who was about to touch the emperor's seat!
Facing deadly attacks from all directions, Lin Huan's eyes were firm. He pushed his Primal Origin Body to the extreme, and chaotic vital Qi behind him formed a blurred Primal Shield. He intended to withstand everything and forcefully ascend!
Within the Forbidden Ground, Lin Dao's right index finger moved almost imperceptibly.
The chaotic currents around him stirred with an extremely subtle ripple.
