It felt as if it was about to completely collapse and be swallowed up by the endless darkness at any moment!
Anti-surveillance agents!
It truly lives up to its reputation as a multiverse-level catastrophe capable of destroying countless universes!
The dark energy emanating from the projection of his will alone was enough to make this "pseudo-god" who had just broken through to the Nascent Soul realm feel so strained!
But! Lin Tian did not back down at all!
Instead, his eyes blazed with an even more intense fighting spirit and...greed!
The greater the power, the more flavorful it is to devour, isn't it?!
The Yin-Yang Harmony Classic!
Share this! Share this! Share this!
Lin Tian frantically circulated the supreme demonic power within his body!
His Yang God power, as vast as a black hole, greedily and relentlessly absorbed the surrounding violent dark energy and fragments of antimatter laws!
At the same time, he unleashed all the power and insights into the laws he had plundered and comprehended from various universes and powerful beings, including the Mind Stone, Reality Stone, Phoenix Force, Chaos Magic, Speed Force, Kryptonian bloodline, Amazonian power, and so on, without reservation!
The purple-gold Hehuan Immortal Essence, as if infused with endless fuel, instantly became more vast, more condensed, and filled with terrifying power that encompassed all things and devoured everything!
He even began to try to incorporate that dark energy, filled with destructive intent, into his own Hehuan Cycle System?!
Fighting poison with poison?!
Using darkness to devour darkness?!
Even… the transformation of Yin and Yang?!
To turn this pure destructive power into part of one's own power?!
This is... insane! Utterly insane!
But Lin Tian!
He's such a madman!
An ultimate demon king who dares to challenge everything, devour everything, and regards the entire multiverse as his "hunting ground" and "nourishment"!
"Roar--!"
Seemingly sensing Lin Tian's increasingly arrogant and greedy will, the enormous dark eye in the sky suddenly contracted!
Immediately afterwards, a dark beam of light, far more terrifying, purer, and filled with the meaning of "end," like the first darkness at the beginning of creation, or the final destruction at the end of the universe, tore through all space and time and slammed into Lin Tian!
This attack contained a trace of the Anti-Monitor's will and power, enough to easily annihilate any single universe-level existence!
Even Thanos would probably have to back down in the face of this attack!
Finished!
All the heroes and villains on the ground who witnessed this scene had the same thought at the same time!
Lin Tian…no matter how strong he is…there’s no way he can withstand this attack, right?! He…is doomed?!
however!
Faced with this ultimate destructive blow that could make the entire universe tremble, Lin Tian revealed an even more insane and excited smile!
"Well done!"
He roared to the sky, no longer holding back or testing the waters!
His terrifying cultivation level, which had reached the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and all the power of the laws he had plundered and comprehended from various universes, were completely integrated into one at this moment!
It transformed into a purple-gold primordial joyful divine light, seemingly capable of splitting the heavens and earth and reshaping the universe!
"Give it to me! Break—!"
Lin Tian roared!
The purple-gold Primordial Joyful Union Divine Light, which contained his life's cultivation and all his understanding of the laws, was like the light of creation that reversed the torrent of the universe, and it resolutely rushed towards the dark beam of light that was capable of destroying everything!
Light and darkness, creation and destruction, the "outliers" of the matter universe and the "masters" of the antimatter universe!
The collision of two forces representing the most extreme aspects of the multiverse finally erupted in the most devastating yet magnificent way!
The annihilation of the 144 laws, the tribulation of godhood? Gods and demons reverse, darkness falls.
Boom—!!! A terrifying explosion beyond description! It instantly engulfed the entire skies above Gotham City! It even affected near-Earth orbit!
The purplish-gold Primordial Joyful Divine Light! And that dark, destructive beam of light, filled with the meaning of the end! Like two supernovae colliding head-on! Unleashing terrifying energy powerful enough to annihilate all matter! Torn apart all laws!
The entire sky seemed to be utterly torn apart and twisted by these two extreme forces, transforming into a chaotic energy turbulence filled with destruction! Space was shattering! Time was in disarray! The laws of nature were wailing!
Gotham City! This already disaster-ridden city! In the aftermath of this war between gods and demons! It was as if it had experienced countless nuclear explosions! Skyscrapers were torn apart like paper! Turning into swirling dust! The hard ground was ripped open like tofu! Revealing the hideous rifts and magma deep beneath! Even the "Demon King's Palace" on the top floor of Wayne Tower, protected by Lin Tian's barrier! Shaked violently under the terrifying energy impact! As if it were about to disintegrate at any moment!
On the ground! Those heroes and villains who were trembling with fear and despair were now like ants in a storm! Blown about by the terrifying aftershocks of energy! Their fates were unknown! Only a few stronger individuals, or those with better luck who hid behind cover, managed to survive! But they were all severely injured! Bleeding from all seven orifices! Completely incapacitated!
Even the queens under Lin Tian's command—Wanda, Jean, Gwen, Diana, and others—while possessing strength far exceeding that of ordinary heroes and protected by the energy left behind by Lin Tian, felt unprecedented pressure in the face of this near-world-destroying collision of laws. The energy shield they had jointly erected was cracked, its light dimmed, and it teetered on the brink of collapse under repeated impacts. A trickle of blood oozed from the corners of their mouths, clearly indicating they had suffered significant internal injuries.
"Master!" "Lin!" The queens cried out in alarm, filled with worry and despair, as they watched the figure in the sky being completely swallowed by endless darkness and purple-gold light. They could clearly feel the terrifying pressure Lin Tian was enduring! It was a power that no living being could withstand! It was the annihilation of the universe, a force capable of destroying the universe! Could their master really pull through?!
And as one of the instigators of all this, the enormous dark eye in the sky, after unleashing that ultimate beam of destruction, seemed to have also consumed a tremendous amount of energy?! The dark red light within its eye had become somewhat dim and unstable?! But the malice and destructive will emanating from it had become even more intense and frenzied! It seemed determined to utterly crush that "ant" that dared to challenge it!
Within the interdimensional cultivation space, Lin Tian's Yang Spirit was enduring an unprecedented and terrifying impact! The dark beam of destruction, amplified by the will of the Anti-Monitor, was not merely a simple energy attack; it also contained the pure laws of "antimatter" and the will of "end." It was frantically eroding Lin Tian's Yang Spirit, attempting to completely erase his existence from this universe! Under the impact of this terrifying power, Lin Tian's Yang Spirit was riddled with jagged cracks, seemingly on the verge of complete collapse! Its purplish-gold light had dimmed considerably, teetering on the brink of collapse! Intense pain, like a tidal wave, repeatedly assaulted Lin Tian's consciousness, making him feel as if his very soul was being torn apart!
"Damn it!" Lin Tian gritted his teeth! His eyes were filled with resentment and madness! "Am I, Lin Tian, really going to die here today?!"
No! Absolutely not! I haven't collected all the Infinity Stones yet! I haven't conquered all the cosmic queens! I haven't reached the true pinnacle of power! I haven't had enough fun yet! How can I die here so easily?!
"Hold on! Hold on—!!" Lin Tian roared in defiance! His powerful will—the will of the "Demon King"—to never give up and never surrender—erupted completely at this moment!
Buzz—!!! Deep within Lin Tian's sea of consciousness! The purple-gold Yang God figure, which was already riddled with cracks and on the verge of collapse! Suddenly! It erupted with supreme divine light that was more dazzling, more radiant, and more imbued with the meaning of "immortality" and "creation" than ever before!
The Yin-Yang Harmony Scripture! This top-tier demonic art from the cultivation world! This supreme scripture that directly points to the creation of Yin and Yang! It can even contain the origin of chaos! Driven by Lin Tian's indomitable will! Under the extreme pressure and stimulation of the Anti-Monitor's terrifying "antimatter" law and "end" will! It actually! Like a phoenix rising from the ashes! Underwent some incredible! ultimate transformation?!
He had already reached the peak of the late stage of the third level! He was just one step away from breaking through the bottleneck! But under the extreme pressure of this "annihilation of laws" and "life-or-death crisis," it was forcibly broken open?!
Rumble!!! A terrifying power, far more vast, purer, and closer to the origin of the universe than the previous early-stage Nascent Soul stage, erupted instantly from the core of Lin Tian's Yang God, like the Big Bang, sweeping across his entire sea of consciousness!
His Yang Spirit! In that instant! seemed to have completely broken free from all constraints! It merged even more closely with the ocean of laws of the entire multiverse! He gained a deeper, more fundamental understanding and insight into Yin and Yang! The Five Elements! Space! Time! Mind! Reality! Life! Destruction! Chaos! Even the "antimatter" and "end" laws he had just encountered! His Primordial Unity Immortal Essence! At this moment! Completely completed its final transformation! Became purer! More condensed! More filled with the supreme power to encompass all things! To evolve everything!
The Yin-Yang Harmony Scripture! Fourth level! Mid-stage Nascent Soul?! No! Even late-stage Nascent Soul?! Lin Tian himself couldn't accurately judge what realm he had reached! He only felt! He was more powerful than ever before! It was as if with just a thought! He could easily destroy and create countless parallel universes! This feeling was simply too wonderful!
"So this is the Tribulation of Nascent Soul?" Lin Tian felt the surging, seemingly inexhaustible new power within him! A confident and wicked smile appeared on his face! "Anti-Monitor!" He raised his head! Looking at the dark eye in the sky that still exuded terrifying pressure! His eyes were filled with icy killing intent and a hint of "gratitude"? "Thank you for your 'gift'." "In return for you," Lin Tian's voice! became like that of a true god! Filled with unquestionable majesty and a sense of judgment! "I will grant you a true eternal slumber!"
"Eternal slumber!" Lin Tian's voice, filled with supreme majesty and a sense of judgment, was like a pronouncement of the laws of the universe. It resounded throughout the entire Earth on the verge of destruction, even penetrating layers upon layers of spatial barriers, and directly bombarded the core of that enormous dark eye, as well as the indescribable and terrifying existence behind it—the will of the Anti-Monitor!
"Insect! How dare you!" From the depths of the Eye of Darkness came a roar filled with shock, rage, and disbelief! The Anti-Monitor could clearly sense that this tiny being from the positive matter universe before him, after enduring his destructive beam containing a trace of primal will, not only hadn't been annihilated, but its aura had become even more terrifying! Even more unfathomable?! It even faintly threatened him?! How could this be?! Could it have actually broken through under his attack?! This was simply unheard of! Inconceivable!
However! Lin Tian gave him absolutely no time to think or react!
"Shut up!" Lin Tian snorted coldly! His eyes blazed with a purple-gold divine light! His terrifying cultivation level, having just broken through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and his profound understanding of various fundamental laws of the universe, were unleashed at this moment, without reservation!
"Primordial Yin and Yang! Reverse the Universe!" Lin Tian formed hand seals, invoking the laws of heaven and earth! In an instant, the entire Earth, and even the entire solar system, all energy, all matter, and all laws seemed to be summoned by some supreme will. They began to converge madly towards Lin Tian in an extremely strange yet harmonious way! Light! Darkness! Life! Death! Creation! Destruction! Time! Space! Mind! Reality! All the original laws of the universe that were originally opposed and even conflicted were forcibly distorted, fused, and transformed before Lin Tian's "Primordial Harmony Great Dao," which devoured everything like a black hole. Ultimately, it transformed into a colossal, chaotic-colored, yet faintly shimmering seven-colored divine light, a divine sword of laws that seemed capable of severing all cause and effect and annihilating all existence!
"Slash!" Lin Tian's gaze was icy! He formed a sword incantation with his hands and slashed fiercely at the enormous dark eye in the sky!
*Swoosh—!* There was no earth-shattering sound! No cataclysmic energy eruption! Only a faint, almost imperceptible chaotic sword light! Instantly ripped through the sky! Ignoring spatial distance! Ignoring the passage of time! Ignoring all barriers of energy and laws! Directly! With unparalleled precision! It struck the enormous, dark eye that radiated endless destructive power!
Then, under the horrified and incredulous gazes of everyone present, the once invincible Dark Eye, capable of making the entire multiverse tremble, silently cracked open like a punctured balloon! And then, that crack spread wildly before their very eyes, like a spiderweb, instantly covering the entire Dark Eye!
·····Requesting flowers·········
Crack! Crack! Crack! A series of teeth-grinding cracking sounds rang out! Finally! Boom—!!! That enormous! Dark Eye that had once brought endless despair and destruction! It actually collapsed completely! It turned into countless fragments of pure dark energy flying everywhere! Like a black blizzard!
Then, before these fragments of dark energy could even dissipate, they were instantly devoured by an even more domineering and greedy invisible force! Not even a trace of their existence remained!
Silence! Deathly silence! The entire world seemed utterly speechless because of this scene that was completely beyond comprehension! Only the figure of Lin Tian, still radiating a faint purple-gold light in the sky, like a creator god, overlooking the entire earth, remained!
He actually annihilated the projection of the Anti-Monitor's will with a single sword strike?! What level of power is this?! Has he truly surpassed gods?! Reached some unbelievable realm of creation?! All living beings who witnessed this scene! Heroes, villains, and ordinary people! All had only one thought in their minds! That is—surrender! Utterly! Without reservation! Prostrating themselves! Surrender! Before this being who is like a true god! Any resistance! Any struggle! Any thought! Is blasphemy!
Deep within the distant, dark multiverse, upon a throne filled with endless darkness and nothingness, an indescribable, terrifying figure suddenly unleashed a roar filled with pain and disbelief!
...............
"No—! My projection of will! My Dark Eye!"
"Who is it?! Who on earth is it?! How could they possibly annihilate my very essence?!"
"How could such a powerful being exist in this universe?!"
"I'll remember you, you ant."
"Just wait, one day I will personally descend and utterly crush you and your universe!"
The Anti-Monitor's roar, filled with endless rage and resentment, echoed through the dark void! But he ultimately chose not to descend again immediately! Because he could clearly sense the aura of law emanating from the being that had just annihilated his will projection! It was extremely strange and powerful! It even made him feel a faint sense of apprehension?! Before figuring out the other party's true strength, he didn't want to take any more risks! It seemed that the "hunting" plan in this universe needed to be reconsidered.
Earth, Gotham City. With the collapse and receding of the Dark Eye of the Anti-Monitor, the dark curtain that had shrouded the sky vanished like a receding tide! The long-awaited sunlight once again bathed this wounded land! Although the city remained a scene of devastation, with ruins everywhere, at least the apocalypse was over? All the survivors collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, their faces streaked with tears and a hint of bewilderment. They gazed at the figure in the sky, bathed in sunlight like a savior, their eyes filled with an incredibly complex mix of emotions: awe, fear, gratitude, worship, and an indescribable dependence? They knew that from this day forward, the fate of this world was entirely in the hands of this man! Whether it be light or darkness, it would be decided by his single word!
Lin Tian slowly descended from the sky. He ignored the "ants" casting complicated glances at him. His attention was completely focused on his newly broken realm and the surging new power within him! Late-stage Nascent Soul! No! It seemed even more than that! In the clash of laws with the projection of the Anti-Monitor's will just now! And after devouring that massive dark energy! His cultivation had actually made a huge leap forward again! He had faintly touched the threshold of the peak of Nascent Soul?! And if he had just a little more opportunity! He could even try to break through to the legendary fifth level—Refining Void and Integrating the Dao?!
"Hehe, what an unexpected delight!" Lin Tian felt the unprecedentedly powerful force within his body! A smile of immense joy appeared on his face! It seemed that this "cosmic-level catastrophe" was actually a tremendous stroke of luck for him!
So now it's time to properly "integrate" the world's "resources"! To lay a solid foundation for our future higher endeavors!
Lin Tian's gaze, like that of an emperor surveying his territory, slowly swept over the "heroes" and "villains" below who had completely lost the will to resist. A smile, full of control and a hint of wicked charm, curled at the corner of his mouth.
Let the "new order" of the DC Universe begin today!
145 The "Cornerstone" of the New Order: The Benevolence of the Demon King
On the ruins of Gotham City, the sunlight dispelled the gloom that had lingered for days, but it could not dispel the palpable fear and awe in the hearts of the survivors.
All eyes were focused on the godlike figure slowly descending from the sky—Lin Tian.
He single-handedly confronted and defeated a terrifying being capable of destroying the entire multiverse, saving this world from collapse.
Although his methods were equally tyrannical and destructive, at this moment, in the eyes of the survivors, he had undoubtedly become the only "savior," the supreme being who could determine their future fate.
The Justice League heroes—Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and others—scrambled to their feet from the rubble, looking at Lin Tian with eyes filled with an extremely complex mix of emotions. There was the relief of surviving a catastrophe, a sense of powerlessness at their own weakness, and an extreme fear of Lin Tian's unfathomable strength, but also a hint of… twisted gratitude and… a forced surrender to reality?
They knew that from this moment on, the so-called "Justice League" and the so-called "Guardians of Earth" would become a joke.
The fate of this world is no longer in their hands.
The villains of Gotham City, including the Joker, Catwoman, and the Penguin, were terrified. They lay prostrate on the ground like the most docile sheep, trembling and not daring to breathe, for fear of attracting the slightest attention from this "new villain."
Lin Tian slowly landed on the ruins of the top floor of Wayne Tower, his gaze calmly sweeping over the various "ants" below.
He didn't immediately announce any "declaration of rule" or give any "victory speech." He simply... extended his hand.
"933"
With a gentle wave of his hand, he surveyed the ravaged Gotham City below.
hum-
An indescribable, profound purple-gold divine light, brimming with the mysteries of creation and destruction, swept outwards from Lin Tian like an invisible tidal wave, causing miracles to occur wherever it passed.
The buildings that had collapsed due to previous battles and disasters were beginning to rise from the ground and return to their original state at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The ground, cracked by the energy impact, began to heal itself and returned to its original smooth state.
The thick smoke and flames produced by the explosion were extinguished instantly, disappearing without a trace?
Even the bodies of innocent civilians who survived the ordeal, as well as the wounded heroes and villains, began to...miraculously...resurrect? Heal? Under this purple-gold divine light, which was full of life and the meaning of time reversal.
In just a few breaths, Gotham City transformed from its previous apocalyptic state back to its pre-disaster prosperity.
Even cleaner and tidier than before? The air is fresher? It's as if the cataclysmic disaster that just happened never occurred.
Only the horrific memories remaining in the minds of the survivors, and the ghostly looks they gave Lin Tian, testify to the truth of everything.
"What...what...what kind of power is this?"
Everyone was utterly stunned by the miracle before them, a miracle akin to creation itself.
Reversing destruction? Reshaping reality? Even… resurrecting the dead? This is beyond mere "power"; it's true, a power possessed only by gods.
Batman, Bruce Wayne, stared at the unbelievable scene before him. For the first time, his heart, hardened by witnessing too much darkness and despair, was violently shaken.
He had always believed that everything he did was to protect this city and its people, but now, in front of this god-like man, all his efforts and sacrifices seemed so... insignificant and... laughable?
If... if he truly possesses such immense power... if... he can truly bring "peace" and "order" to this world... then... would I still have the need to resist? Would I still have the right to resist?
For the first time, Batman deeply doubted his own beliefs…
Meanwhile, heroes like Superman Clark Kent and Wonder Woman Diana felt their injuries healed by the life-golden divine light.
Even after their internal power had been slightly "purified" and "enhanced," their gazes towards Lin Tian became more complex and...reverent.
They could clearly sense that the power Lin Tian had just released, while equally domineering, contained a trace of… “goodwill”? and… “benevolence”?
