Chapter 11: Blowing Up a Dimensional Beast with a Single Punch
Lin Yi pulled out his right hand and hooked his fingers at the monster.
"Didn't you eat?"
"Or is Dormammu unable to pay your wages, making even your farts so limp and weak."
The eyeballs on the monster's body contracted violently, and its tentacles lashed the ground restlessly.
Why didn't the prey melt?
Why was he still talking?
At the stairwell, Daniel's eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.
"Is he actually still alive?"
Daniel lowered his head and looked at his left arm, which had been corroded down to the bone even though it had only grazed the edge slightly.
He raised his head again and looked at Lin Yi strolling leisurely in the black fog.
How could he withstand the erosion of the Dark Dimension's source head-on?
That was a terminal curse that could even melt souls!
Where are the laws of physics?
Where is the law of the conservation of magic?
Were they all eaten by dogs?!
Standing beside him, Wong looked at Daniel's frantic, almost demonic appearance and patted his shoulder sympathetically.
"Master, you're making a fuss over nothing."
"Wong... He... What kind of monster is he anyway?"
Daniel's voice was hoarse, as if he were asking for help.
"He's not a monster..."
The red and black mist rolled violently in the Underground Room.
All the eyes on that stitched-monster-like dimensional beast stared fixedly at Lin Yi.
Those dark purple tentacles contracted wildly, and a layer of black-purple keratinous carapace suddenly arched up on the monster's back.
Scorching black flames spewed out from the gaps in the carapace.
The gravel on the ground touched by this flame melted directly into scorching magma without making the slightest sound.
At the stairwell.
The old man's mind was already ice-cold.
He recognized this thing.
The Dark Dimension vanguard, 'Skull-Splitter'!
A monster of this level came with a high-tier anti-magicfield; Kamar-Taj's conventional formations were like paper in front of it.
Even in his prime right now, leading ten high-tier mages to form a formation, he couldn't stop this guy's single charge!
It's over.
The London Sanctum is finished.
Daniel closed his eyes in despair.
That brash kid, even if he survived the first wave of mist erosion, would definitely be burned to ashes by this monster's black flames.
In the center of the Underground Room.
Lin Yi stood at the edge of the rolling black flames, tilted his head slightly, and his sight crossed the monster's thick carapace.
Damn it, my soles were even melted by the heat!
Is that all Dormammu has under his command?
Looking so huge, why is it like a severely cataract-afflicted deformed child!
An anti-magic field?
I don't even have a shred of magic on me, what are you going to use to counter me!
The monster moved, its huge body resembling a black flame cannonball fired from a barrel, crashing straight toward Lin Yi.
Dust started falling in large areas from the ceiling at the top of the Underground Room.
"Hurry up and dodge!"
Daniel's breathing stagnated.
You idiot, why aren't you dodging yet!
Looking at the approaching dimensional beast, Lin Yisimply twisted his waist and dropped his shoulder.
Then, facing that black-flame carapace, he threw a punch straight ahead with his right hand.
The muscles of his right arm expanded by a circle in the blink of an eye, and pure power roared and echoed in his blood vessels.
There was only an extremely crisp cracking sound.
Crack!
Decisive, irresistible, and utterly unreasonable.
The terrifying power of nearly one hundred thousand points was poured onto the monster without reservation at this moment.
That indestructible black-purple carapace, which could even bounce away high-tier magic, was like a crisp biscuit hit by a sledgehammer under Lin Yi's fist.
It directly caved in!
Then it exploded with a bang!
Black fluid mixed with fragments of the carapace splashed in all directions.
The monster's huge body stalled mid-air.
The thousands of compound eyes on its body bulged outward simultaneously, the bottoms of its eyes filled with incomprehensible fear.
The next second.
The huge body blew up completely from the inside out into a foul-smelling rain of blood.
[Sustained Abyss Black Flame scorching, triggered 'Cost Reversal'.]
[Flame resistance +500!]
[Successfully killed high-tier dimensional beast, triggered deep plundering mechanism.]
[Deprived dimensional crystal, constitution +2000!]
[Strength +500!]
[Deprived Abyss Black Flame, obtained active skill: Black Flame Enchantment.]
[Mental power +300!]
White fonts beat wildly on the retina.
Lin Yi stood in place, letting the rain of blood pour over his body.
He unhurriedly withdrew his fist, his gaze deep.
Holy shit!
I've struck it rich!
Killing these guys actually drops double coins?
Tell me earlier!
What was the point of me chewing on that pile of ragged forbidden books in the Library a few days ago?!
The Underground Room completely quieted down.
Only the gloomy wind blowing from the fissure was still swirling.
The blood fog gradually dissipated, and Daniel at the stairwell was completely dumbfounded.
That was Skull-Splitter!
Let alone trying to resist it head-on with a physical body.
Even back in his prime, holding the top holy artifact of the Sanctum Sanctorum, he would have had to dance with this thing for three days and three nights, and still wouldn't necessarily have escaped unscathed!
But what did this kid, whom he had pointed at and cursed as trash, do?
With a single punch, he smashed it into pieces!
Daniel's left arm, which was still bleeding earlier, couldn't even feel the pain at this moment.
"Thud!"
Daniel's legs went soft, and his knees heavily smashed onto the ground at the stairwell.
The old man slumped on the ground, his entire upper body completely hunched over.
His previous arrogance, disdain, and high-and-mighty attitude all vanished without a trace.
He finally understood the weight of being a personal disciple of the Sorcerer Supreme.
Standing behind, Wong flicked his hand, removed the magic shield, looked at Daniel kneeling on the ground, and sighed helplessly.
"I already reminded you, Master."
Wong stuffed a cold french fry into his mouth, chewing with loud smacks.
"You were just making a fuss over nothing."
Lin Yi stood in place and shook his right hand.
He spread his palms, his mind stirring.
A cluster of pale green flames burst out from his palm.
The flames had no temperature; instead, they exuded a refreshing chill, like a piece of ice burning in his hand.
He casually pressed the flame onto a half-man-high piece of rubble nearby.
"Ssss—"
The stone block didn't have any burning transition; it directly melted into a pool of black water emitting white smoke.
Lin Yi nodded with satisfaction.
This black flame was indeed a good tool for destroying corpses and erasing traces.
He strode forward and walked toward the stairwell.
Daniel knelt in the pile of broken bricks, his vision moving back and forth between the ground full of minced meat and Lin Yi.
On that old face, the previous arrogance had long since vanished completely.
Lin Yi walked up to Daniel, stopped, and looked down at the old man.
"Old man. What did you call me just now? My ears aren't very good, can you say it louder?"
Daniel opened his mouth, unable to spit out a single word for a long time.
Wong walked down the stairs holding half a pack of cold french fries.
He handed the french fries to Daniel and sighed.
"Master, I said it long ago, we can't understand the Sorcerer Supreme's vision."
Daniel supported himself against the wall and forced himself to stand up, his left hand still dripping blood.
Looking at that wound, Lin Yi was just about to ask him if he wanted some medical expenses.
A gust of cold wind blew from behind.
Chapter 12 Buffet Begins
The magical turbulence at the bottom of the underground palace had originally subsided, but the oppressive feeling in the air was several times stronger than just now.
Lin Yi turned his head and looked toward the center of the underground palace.
That dark rift suspended in mid-air did not close because of the death of the Skull-Splitter.
On the contrary, having lost the obstruction of the huge body, that half-meter-wide cleft was like a breached dike.
Dark red granulation tissue grew wildly at the edge of the crack, intertwining with each other, and forcefully tearing outward.
"Creak—"
The space emitted an extremely teeth-aching friction sound.
The chandelier on the ceiling of the underground palace exploded with a "bang", and glass shards fell all over the floor.
A dozen-meter-long crack appeared on the bluestone slab ground, heading straight for the stairway.
The rift was forcibly widened to three meters high and two meters wide.
The red and black mist, like materialized liquid, rolled out from inside.
The Void Perception in Lin Yi's mind fully opened.
The perceptual network penetrated that layer of viscous mist and probed into the world behind the rift.
At first glance, Lin Yi raised his eyebrows.
In the endless dark purple nothingness, densely packed outlines were squeezed together.
Pairs of dim-glowing eyes were staring fixedly through the rift at the vitality on this side of Earth.
This is a whole group!
The leading monsters were waving their tentacles and sharp claws, desperately pushing their companions back, trying to break through the shackles of space first.
Daniel also felt this terrifying coercion.
He could not care about the severe pain in his arm, walked quickly to Lin Yi's side, and stared dead at the still-expanding rift.
The old man's face was as pale as paper.
"What is going on?" Wong pulled out two more Rings of Raggadorr.
"The Skull-Splitter was just cannon fodder scouting the way. Behind that rift... something is driving them." Daniel's voice trembled.
Daniel had been dealing with dimensional creatures all year round and knew the habits of this gang of monsters all too well.
High-tier dimensional beasts had extremely strong territorial awareness and would never crowd together like livestock in a pigpen.
Unless they were avoiding an even more terrifying existence, or were forcibly assembled by a higher-tier lord to act as an vanguard army.
Daniel turned his head to look at Wong, "Quick! Notify Kamar-Taj immediately! Have The Ancient One bring people over! The eye of the formation buried beneath this cannot withstand this scale of impact, London is going to be gone!"
Wong realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately put away his shield.
He groped out the brass sling ring, put it on two fingers of his left hand, and quickly drew circles in front of him with his right hand.
Golden sparks rubbed out in mid-air, drawing a semicircular trajectory.
The sparks had just formed.
A gloomy wind carrying a fishy stench rolled over from the direction of the rift.
The wind was mixed with fine black powder, and as soon as it contacted the golden sparks, it immediately made a "hissing" sound.
The sparks were like being poured with cold water and directly extinguished.
Wong was stunned for a moment, gritted his teeth and changed positions, avoiding the wind gap.
This time the sparks didn't even draw a full semicircle.
That dark magic directly condensed into an invisible giant hand in mid-air, pinching out the golden flame with one grab.
Then, a burst of black electric arcs spread along the air to Wong's sling ring.
"Snap!"
With a crisp sound.
Wong cried out in pain and violently flung his hand away.
He took off the sling ring and found that the surface of the brass ring had already cracked with a fine crevice, and the surface was shockingly hot.
"What is going on!" Daniel was anxious.
"It's useless, the portal cannot be opened." Wong held his scalded hand, "It's being interfered with."
The monster roars coming from the other side of the rift were getting closer and denser.
Daniel looked at the rift that had expanded to four meters.
Three huge figures had already poked out more than half of their bodies.
The first one had three huge heads and was covered with pearly-white bone spurs.
The second one was like a wolf spider magnified dozens of times, with its abdomen covered in human arms, crawling rapidly on the ground.
The third one was a mass of dark green acid that constantly changed shape, dripping onto the bluestone slab and directly burning through a large hole.
The oppressive feeling emitted by each one was no less than that Skull-Splitter from just before.
And behind them, even more monsters of various shapes were squeezing out.
"There is no time."
Daniel leaned on his staff and took a deep breath.
His hunched back tried to straighten up at this moment, and his whole person exuded a resolute aura of death.
He turned around and looked at Wong and Lin Yi in a commanding tone.
"Wong, take him away. Contact the Sorcerer Supremeimmediately after going out."
"Master! Then what about you!"
"When the First Master built the Sanctum Sanctorum, they buried a self-destruction core underground. It has been nourished by the magic of past masters for hundreds of years."
"I am going to detonate it. The black hole generated by the space collapse can suck this bunch of scumbags and this rift back into the Dark Dimension together."
"I've guarded this place for forty years, this is probably the last chore I'll do."
He turned his head and gave Lin Yi a complicated look.
"Kid, you are very strong, I misjudged you. Kamar-Tajneeds people like you to live on. Go, don't let my life be wasted in vain."
The old man held a determination to die and prepared to trade his life for London's peace.
Wong's eye sockets turned red, and he grabbed Lin Yi's arm.
"Lin Yi, let's go quickly, the Master's mind is made up, staying here will only hold them back!"
Lin Yi looked at the dimensional beast herd gathering ahead, and then lowered his head to look at Daniel, who was preparing to chant nearby.
"You old man, you really know how to add drama to yourself."
Lin Yi extended his right hand and grabbed the back of Daniel's collar.
Amidst Daniel's shocked gaze, Lin Yi threw him backward.
Daniel drew a parabola in the air, crashed onto a dozen steps with a "bang", and rolled twice before stopping.
"Cough cough... What are you doing!" The old man was beaten dizzy and roared up.
Lin Yi clapped his hands and glanced at the old man with disgust.
"Stay honestly. You overturned the table, what am I going to eat?"
Overturned the table? What to eat?
Daniel and Wong looked at each other in blank dismay, completely unable to understand.
Lin Yi turned around and faced the group of dimensional beasts that had completely stepped into the underground palace.
The number increased to eight, and they were still continuously emerging from the rift behind.
The terrifying roars shook dust falling rustlingly from the walls of the underground palace.
Daniel anxiously patted his thighs.
"Are you crazy! They will tear you apart alive! Come back quickly!"
"Wong, remember to help me time it."
Lin Yi stretched his neck, his joints making a crisp, popping sound like beans.
"For a buffet delivered to my door, I won't stand on ceremony."
Chapter 13 Holding the Line Single-Handedly
"Madman... You suicidal madman!"
Wong stood in front of Daniel, holding up the Rings of Raggadorr, and sighed silently.
"Master, save your energy. He might... not be a mortal of flesh and blood."
In the center of the Underground Room.
The three-headed monster covered in white bone barbs at the very front locked onto Lin Yi first.
Its three huge heads raised simultaneously, its thick hind legs fiercely stomped the ground, and it crushed forward with a booming roar.
The speed was extremely fast, and the compressed air emitted a muffled sound.
Lin Yi stood in place, and the moment the monster crashed into him, the full-body white bone barbs stabbed directly at Lin Yi's chest and face.
"Pfft!"
The bone barbs pierced through his clothes, stabbing fiercely into his skin, producing a harsh, crisp sound like snapping metal.
The moment a dozen thick bone barbs touched Lin Yi's body, they snapped clean off!
[Suffered high-tier physical Impact and bone barb penetration, triggered 'Cost Reversal'.]
[Physical defense judgment is ultra-effective, converted to permanent physique enhancement.]
[Physique + 800!]
[Strength + 400!]
Lin Yi twisted his neck, letting the broken bone fragments fall to the ground.
"Quite strong! Now it's my turn."
Lin Yi opened the five fingers of his right hand and grabbed the neck of the centermost head.
The muscles on his arms bulged, forcibly lifting the monster off the ground and swinging it over his head.
Bang!
The monster was heavily smashed onto the ground, causing the entire Underground Room to shake violently, and the ground directly caved in into a half-meter-deep crater.
Before the monster could struggle, Lin Yi raised his right foot and stomped heavily onto its chest cavity.
The dull sound of shattering bones spread throughout the subterranean palace, and green blood splashed more than three meters high like a fountain.
That beating core heart was smashed to pieces by this stomp.
[Successfully killed the white-bone dimensional beast, triggered deep plunder mechanism.]
[Bone density + 1000!]
[Physique + 500!]
The second monster—that blob of writhing dark green acid—took the opportunity to wriggle over from the side.
Its body suddenly contracted, spitting out a massive, overwhelming rain of concentrated acid.
The acid splashed onto Lin Yi's body, his clothes instantly corroded full of holes, and white smoke rose.
Daniel in the rear widened his eyes; this kind of dimensional corrosive acid could turn even the hardest refined steel into Water within three seconds, and if it got on a person, their flesh and skin would immediately separate!
However.
As the white smoke dissipated, not even a red mark was left on Lin Yi's bare upper body.
[Suffered strong acid corrosion, triggered 'Cost Reversal'.]
[Strong acid resistance + 800!]
[Physique + 300!]
Lin Yi lowered his head to look at his pants, which were now reduced to mere rags, and frowned.
"These pants of mine have accompanied me for three years. Ahtah!"
He raised his right hand, and a sickly green flame suddenly surged out—it was precisely the Abyss Black Fire dropped by the previous Skull-Splitter.
Lin Yi flicked his hand and tossed it.
The black fire landed on the acid monster, clinging to it like marrow-eating worms, and seeped directly into its core.
The monster didn't even manage a scream before its huge, sticky body rapidly withered away in the sickly green flames.
In less than three seconds, it turned into a puddle of withered black residue, scattering into the air at a gust of wind.
[Black fire burning took effect, successfully killed the acid monster.]
[Mental strength + 600!]
[Obtained passive: Acid damage immunity.]
The third human-faced wolf spider let out a sharp hiss.
The dozen human arms on its abdomen formed hand seals simultaneously, and an invisible mental Impact like a solid heavy hammer charged straight at Lin Yi's brain.
[Suffered high-tier mental whipping, triggered 'Cost Reversal'.]
[Mental pollution judgment failed, converted to permanent mental strength enhancement.]
[Mental strength + 1500!]
A refreshing coolness came from his mind, making Lin Yinarrow his eyes in comfort.
He flipped his wrist, and a dark red light flashed. The chain of despair roared out from his wrist, transforming into a thorny chain over a dozen meters long.
The chain, as if it had a life of its own, accurately and flawlessly wrapped around the wolf spider's abdomen, its sharp barbs piercing fiercely into its flesh.
[Life Drain triggered.]
[Lifespan + 50 years!]
Lin Yi suddenly pulled back with one hand.
The wolf spider's huge body lost balance, dragged toward Lin Yi by an irresistible monstrous force.
Lin Yi closed in, clenching his left hand into a fist, and slammed a punch into its head with a sound piercing through the air.
Brain matter splattered, its eight legs twitched twice, and it completely stopped moving.
[Successfully killed the human-faced wolf spider.]
[Mental strength + 800!]
[Agility + 400!]
In less than a minute, the three vanguard-tier dimensional beasts were left without a single bone remaining.
In front of the dimensional rift deep within the subterranean palace, the remaining five dimensional beasts stopped in their tracks.
The madness and bloodlust that originally filled them had all turned into confusion at this moment, even mixed with a trace of fear.
Why couldn't this person be bitten through? Why did he have no magic power on him, yet could tear open the dimensional outer shell with his bare hands?
"Don't stop."
Lin Yi shook the green liquid off his fists, his eyes shining astonishingly bright.
"Master Wong, did you time it? The buffet has a time limit!"
Lin Yi shouted loudly and charged proactively toward the beast horde.
On the stairs.
Daniel was already numb.
"Crack!" Lin Yi ripped off two tentacles of a monster and backhanded it to strangle itself to death.
"Bang!" Lin Yi stepped on the spine of a hound-like monster, grabbed its head with both hands, and pulled hard, uprooting it entirely.
"Boom!" The Abyss Black Fire covered his fists, and wherever he passed, the monsters couldn't even leave behind an intact corpse, being directly burned into ashes.
The white text of the system on his retina began to refresh frantically, forming a connected waterfall.
[Killed low-tier Void Crawler, physique + 100!]
[Killed high-tier Corrupted Beast, strength + 600!]
[Suffered dark claw slashing, physical defense + 500!]
[Suffered death whisper interference, mental strength + 800!]
[Life Drain triggered, lifespan + 20 years!]
...
Ten minutes later.
The art style in the Underground Room completely changed.
The dimensional beast horde that had originally swarmed out was now desperately squeezing toward that rift in mid-air at an even faster speed than when they came.
Several monsters even started biting each other at the edge of the rift because they were fighting for the lane.
They just wanted to return to the Dark Dimension now; Earth was too dangerous! That shirtless bipedal beast was not food at all; he was the monster!
"What are you running for! Didn't Dormammu teach you what forging ahead means!"
Covered in blood, Lin Yi grabbed the hind leg of the last octopus monster attempting to drill back into the rift.
"Rip—!"
His feet were nailed dead to the ground as his arms exerted force.
The octopus monster let out a shrill scream, being forcibly dragged out of the rift by Lin Yi and heavily smashed onto the ground.
The black fire covered it, and amidst screams, the octopus monster turned into a puddle of black Water.
Lin Yi panted slightly, crossed over to the rift in a few steps, and poked his head in to look.
In the void world behind the rift, the originally dense red eyes retreated three hundred paces at this moment, withdrawing several hundred meters away.
From within the darkness, an angry roar faintly came over, carrying the coercion of some high-dimensional existence.
Lin Yi flipped the middle finger toward that patch of darkness.
Chapter 14: The Call from the Depths of the Rift
Lin Yi withdrew his head, stood in the middle of a pile of ashes, and leisurely patted the black ash off the back of his hand.
In his mind, the white font had just stopped jumping.
He roughly calculated.
In the high-intensity combo of the last ten minutes, his physique had abruptly shot up by nearly thirty thousand points, and his strength had increased by more than twenty thousand points.
Awesome.
The feeling of growing stronger was truly awesome.
This trip was really not in vain.
He turned his head and looked at Wong and Daniel.
"Old man," Lin Yi pointed at his pants, "this counts as a work-related injury, right? Remember to reimburse me for the money to buy clothes."
Daniel's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"You..." The old man's voice was as hoarse as rusted sandpaper, "What kind of spell are you practicing anyway? This is definitely not the inheritance of Kamar-Taj."
"Making a fuss over nothing." Lin Yi curled his lips, "This is called physical transcendence. It specializes in curing all kinds of fancy tricks."
"Master, Lin Yi, he..." Wong hurriedly stepped forward.
"Boom!"
An extremely muffled, loud noise exploded behind Lin Yi.
Lin Yi stopped his steps and looked back.
That spatial rift, torn open to a height of more than four meters, had not yet recovered.
On the contrary, it was "breathing".
With every contraction, the surrounding air was forcibly evacuated, forming a brief vacuum.
With every expansion, thicker red and black mist, like substantial ink, erupted from inside.
The quality of this mist was more than ten times stronger than that brought out by the previous group of monsters.
The mist had just overflowed the broken bricks of the underground palace.
"No, retreat up quickly!" Daniel suddenly roared.
Wong pulled out two magic shields in front of him again...
As soon as the golden rings unfolded, they were struck by the wind pressure mixed in the mist and flickered wildly, about to shatter at any moment.
"What the hell is this commotion?" Wong gritted his teeth, his hands shaking violently.
"Hum—"
An extremely strange syllable came from the deepest part of the rift.
This voice was extremely ancient, carrying an irresistible coercion. The sound waves turned into naked-eye-visible black ripples, pushing outward layer by layer.
It slapped fiercely onto Lin Yi's body.
[Suffering mental whipping from lord-tier dimensional whispers.]
[Triggered the 'Cost Reversal' rule.]
[Mental pollution judgment failed, converted into permanent mental power enhancement.]
[Mental power +3000!]
[Mental power +2000!]
[...]
Lin Yi stood in place, only feeling as if a basin of ice water had been poured into his brain.
Clear, awake.
It felt so comfortable that he even wanted to stretch.
The sound wave continued forward.
Daniel let out a muffled grunt.
Dark red blood flowed directly from his nostrils and ears.
The old man's legs lost strength, and he knelt directly on the steps, his staff thrown far away.
Wong's magic shield was swept by the sound wave.
"Click."
The two golden shields shattered directly into light spots all over the sky.
Wong's brain went blank, and he fell backward, his eardrums buzzing from the shock.
He reached out to rub his ears and turned to look at the two fallen people.
"What kind of trick is this again?" Lin Yi asked, "Quite a loud voice."
"It's over..."
Daniel pointed at the rift spitting out black mist, his voice completely out of tune.
"That is... dimensional language. It is questioning, who slaughtered its vanguard."
Daniel crawled forward with hands and feet for two steps, trying to pick up the staff on the ground.
"This... This is a Dark Dimension lord-tier creature!"
Wong struggled to get up from the ground, his face turning pale in an instant.
"Lord-tier? Are you sure?"
"There can be no mistake." Daniel spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, "Three hundred years ago, the New YorkSanctum Sanctorum encountered one."
"That thing was too lazy to even break the barrier, and directly crushed half a city with its own mass."
"In the end, the first-generation The Ancient One sacrificed thirteen high-tier magical instruments to barely force it back."
Daniel picked up the staff, tears streaming down his old face.
"We can't stop it. The high-tier mages' formation of Kamar-Taj can't stop it either. As long as it steps across this rift, London's defense line will instantly collapse."
The old man struggled to straighten his body, pressing the staff against his chest.
"Wong, you guys go. I must detonate the self-destruction formation core below..."
"Old man, can't you understand human speech?"
Lin Yi directly interrupted Daniel and strode towards the rift.
"Lin Yi! You're crazy! Come back!" Wong shouted aloud, "That's lord-tier!"
Lin Yi's perception penetrated inward.
In the darkness.
A contour so huge it was indescribable was rapidly approaching.
That was a mountain of flesh in the true sense.
Its body was entirely composed of pure dark origin, and its body surface was covered with countless barbs and eyes.
Every movement was squeezing the surrounding space.
The information fed back by Void Perception was extremely clear.
The energy density contained in this monster was more than a hundred times that of the previous group of dimensional beasts combined!
Lin Yi stood in place, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.
How many attribute points could this thing drop?
One hundred thousand?
Two hundred thousand?
If he swallowed it skin and bones, would his physique be able to directly withstand a nuclear bomb?
The entity behind the rift also seemed to have noticed someone peeping at it.
That huge contour suddenly stopped.
A giant hand condensed from dark energy reached out from the void and grabbed the edge of the rift.
This hand was too big.
Just a single finger was thicker than Lin Yi.
The fingers were covered with black scales, and magma-like black water flowed out from the gaps between the scales.
The giant hand buckled forcefully.
"Boom!"
The rift was forcibly torn apart to both sides, expanding by a circle abruptly.
The terrifying sense of oppression hit Daniel and Wong's chests like a substantive heavy hammer.
The old man knelt down again. Self-destruction formation core? There was no chance to start it at all.
Facing that dark wind, Lin Yi walked to the very front of the rift and looked at the scaled giant hand.
He then looked at the four-meter-high opening of the rift.
"This door is too small, can you squeeze in?"
Lin Yi muttered.
The next moment, under the horrified gazes of Daniel and Wong.
Lin Yi stretched out his hands, left and right, tightly grabbing the edges of the rift.
His feet stepped out two deep pits on the mud-like ground, and the blue veins on his arms bulged like coiled dragons.
"Open for me!"
Lin Yi shouted explosively.
His arms suddenly exerted force outward.
Accompanied by a loud noise like tearing silk.
That four-meter-high rift was torn open by Lin Yi with brute force for another two meters to both sides!
The violent spatial turbulence directly cut into his body, splashing a series of sparks.
[Suffering spatial turbulence cutting, physique +1000!]
[Physical defense +800!]
Lin Yi didn't care at all. After tearing open the rift, he leaned his body forward again and stuck his head directly into the Dark Dimension!
Wong covered his face with both hands, his whole body trembling.
Sticking his head into the mouth of a lord-tier monster?
What on earth was he trying to do!
Inside the rift, that huge mountain of flesh was obviously also dumbfounded.
Thousands of eyes simultaneously locked onto this Earthling head that reached in.
Lin Yi opened his mouth and took a deep breath of the void air full of sulfur and the smell of blood.
A very amiable smile appeared on his face.
"Bro, welcome!"
Lin Yi stretched out his finger and knocked on the edge of the rift.
"Hurry up and come over, let me entertain you properly."
Chapter 15 Come Out, You
In the emptiness of the Dark Dimension.
Three black tentacles, as thick as water vats, peeled off from the main body of the meat mountain, carrying intense abyss black flames, and lashed toward Lin Yi's head in a triangular formation.
Lin Yi did not shrink back, raising his right arm.
The dark red bracer worn on his wrist lit up with a dazzling blood-red light.
Accompanied by a dull sound of metal friction, the chain of despair lifted its disguise.
It expanded rapidly against the wind, instantly transforming into a thick iron cable over a hundred meters long.
The surface of the chain was covered with half-foot-long barbs, and like an ancient venomous snake with self-awareness, it plunged straight into the Dark Dimensionalong the crack.
The iron chain bypassed the incoming tentacles in mid-air, plunged straight into the exact center of that meat mountain, and the sharp barbs firmly locked onto the energy core of the lord-level creature.
"Hooked."
Lin Yi grinned, his feet stomping heavily on the bluestone slabs of the underground palace.
The floor tiles shattered inch by inch, the muscles in his two arms suddenly tightened, and his veins bulged.
Lin Yi grabbed the chain, exerted force from his waist, and pulled back fiercely.
A spine-chilling roar came from behind the crack.
The massive body of the lord-level creature was forcibly pulled by the chain, dragging it ruthlessly toward the mouth of the crack.
The crack simply could not accommodate its size, and the black flesh squeezed against the edge of space, forcibly stretching the dimensional rupture to over ten meters wide.
This pulling force exceeded the load-bearing limit of the Underground Room and also surpassed the threshold of the London Sanctum's defensive magic array over hundreds of years.
The defensive runes engraved on the walls burst out with dazzling golden light simultaneously.
The golden light only lasted for half a second before shattering completely under the pressure of the dimensional power.
The load-bearing stone pillars broke, and a large area of the underground palace ceiling collapsed.
"Come out, you!"
Boom!
Amidst the deafening roar, the three-story brick building exploded from the inside.
Countless cyan bricks, rubble, and wooden beams sprayed in all directions.
Bleecker Street in London ushered in its doom at this moment.
A light drizzle was still falling in the sky.
The curtain of rain was abruptly cut off.
A black meat mountain as tall as five stories trampled the ruins of the Sanctum Sanctorum and completely descended onto the streets of London.
The black mucus dripping from its body landed on the asphalt road, burning out deep pits billowing with white smoke.
A double-decker bus failed to brake sharply and crashed head-on into a fire hydrant on the roadside.
A towering water column sprayed down, hitting the tentacles of the lord creature.
Pedestrians on the street stopped in their tracks, and the umbrellas in their hands dropped into the puddles.
Screams tore through the entire neighborhood.
The crowd fled in all directions like a frightened flock of sheep, cars rear-ended one after another, and the sounds of horns and cries merged into a cacophony.
At the edge of the ruins, Wong knelt on one knee, his hands supporting a huge Rings of Raggadorr.
Falling stones smashed against the magic shield, producing ripples of golden circles.
Daniel knelt behind Wong, his body covered in muddy water and dust.
He looked up at the lord creature rampaging on the streets of London, and then looked at the Sanctum Sanctorum, which had turned into a huge crater.
The old man's lips trembled, unable to utter even a single syllable.
Forty years of hard work, the crystallization of generations of mages, were all gone.
"FUCK! Is this fucking thing something that can be casually dragged onto Earth!" Wong looked at the meat mountain above his head, completely speechless.
Lin Yi stood on top of a broken stone pillar.
He reached out to pat the brick dust off his trouser legs, and turned back to look at Daniel inside the magic shield.
"Old man, we have to be reasonable about this." Lin Yicoughed dryly, pointing at the meat mountain, "This really can't be entirely blamed on me. I did this for the sake of the battle."
Daniel rolled his eyes and almost passed out directly.
The lord creature went completely berserk.
Being in an alien world, it felt the repulsion of Earth's laws, but this repulsion instead aroused its ferocity.
It wanted to wipe out all vitality around it.
Its massive body suddenly contracted inward, and then released with a bang.
The pure Dark Dimension origin burst out unreservedly from within its body.
The air within a hundred meters around was instantly sucked dry, forming a circle of black energy storm visible to the naked eye.
Wherever the storm passed, street light poles were twisted and broken like twists.
Several cars parked on the roadside were swept into mid-air, and their sheet metal directly disintegrated under the scouring of the dark energy.
Wong supported the shield with both hands, pushed by the wind pressure to plow two deep trenches on the ground.
Lin Yi bore the brunt and was completely swallowed by the black storm.
The system panel pulled out a waterfall of white text on Lin Yi's retina.
[Endured the strangulation of the lord-level Dark Dimension origin storm.]
[Physical annihilation judgment failed, converted to permanent attribute enhancement.]
[Physique + 50000!]
[Strength + 40000!]
[Mental Strength + 35000!]
[Dark resistance broke through the threshold, acquired passive: High-level Dark Affinity (immune to most dimensional erosion, and can convert and absorb homologous energy).]
Awesome.
Lin Yi twisted his neck, and amidst a doomsday-like storm, he strode forward toward the lord creature.
Every time he lifted his foot, the void beneath his feet would be stepped on to produce a circle of air waves by terrifying physical power.
The thousands of eyes on the lord creature's body contracted simultaneously.
It could not understand why its killer move didn't even cut off a single hair of the opponent.
Lin Yi walked up in front of the meat mountain.
"It is time to end. Taste my serious punch!!"
He raised his right arm, his muscles making a tightening sound like a fully drawn bowstring, with nearly 200,000 points of strength compressed on his fist.
With a single punch, a sonic boom was struck out of the air.
The fist slammed solidly into the area on the front of the meat mountain where hundreds of eyeballs converged.
Green fluid exploded like a high-pressure water gun.
The lord creature let out a miserable howl, and its massive body was smashed backward by more than ten meters from this punch, plowing a deep gully on the street.
Before it could stabilize its figure, Lin Yi had already appeared above its head.
Clenching his fists with both hands, descending from the sky like a heavy hammer, he fell heavily on the monster's back.
The thick carapace shattered directly.
The Impact spread around with the monster as the center, and the glass curtain wall buildings on both sides burst open neatly under this shock, with broken glass falling like rain.
The chain exerted force at the monster's core to strangle tightly.
[Life Drain triggered.]
[Lifespan + 500 years!]
The monster's vitality was rudely extracted, and its originally tough flesh began to atrophy and shrivel.
Lin Yi landed, grabbed a dying tentacle, swung more than half of the lord creature's body, and smashed it fiercely onto the ground.
Three punches.
Four punches.
With completely unflashy physical output, every time a punch fell, the entire neighborhood would jump along with it.
The dimensional lord that was world-destroying ten minutes ago had now become a puddle of defenseless rotten meat in Lin Yi's hands.
The final punch fell.
The entire body of the lord creature completely collapsed, turning into a puddle of foul-smelling black residue on the ground, blending into London's rainwater.
The storm subsided, and only the sound of raindrops hitting scrap steel and gravel remained on the street.
Lin Yi stood in the center of the residue, shook off the juice on his hands, and let out a long breath.
He glanced at the last line of white text jumping in front of him.
[Successfully killed the lord-level dimensional creature.]
[Current total attributes broke through the 300,000 mark.]
At this moment, in the center of a puddle of black mud, a dark red halo lit up.
A fist-sized, polyhedron-shaped black spar slowly floated up.
The fluctuations it emitted caused even the surrounding space to fold slightly.
[Obtained rare material: Dimension Lord Core.]
[Description: Contains the initial law fragments of the Dark Dimension, which can be used for high-tier equipment forging or integrated into the physical body to initiate law transformation.]
In the distant ruins, Wong removed the tattered magicshield.
He looked at the black spar pinched in Lin Yi's hand, and the brass Sling Ring hanging in front of his chest was heating up out of control, even showing faint signs of melting.
Daniel slumped on the ground, looking at Bleecker Street which had been razed to the ground, his eyes empty.
Lin Yi stuffed the spar into his pocket and turned to walk towards the two of them.
"Old Wong, this mission can be considered over-completed."
"Let's go, retreat quickly!"
Lin Yi frantically winked at Wong.
"No!! You can't leave!" Hearing Lin Yi's words, Daniel roared out.
