The combined avatars unleashed their divine might, and after a barrage of attacks, dozens of demigod-level fierce beasts perished.
The space that had just been shattered had now returned to its original state, with the ground littered with the bloody remains of the dead beasts.
As they died, the divine power within their flesh and blood departed, converging to form divine crystals that floated in the air, emitting a brilliant light.
Lin Yu, along with his human avatar, emerged from the cave.
Outside, it was now safe.
As soon as he reached the entrance, his avatars proactively greeted him, surrounding him and forming a protective cordon.
Lin Yu couldn't help but sigh, his talent, having undergone several upgrades, had finally become a little smarter.
Lin Yu commanded, "Collect all the corpses and divine crystals of the fierce beasts."
Upon receiving the order, the avatars nodded and went to work.
Meanwhile, Lin Yu walked towards the Sword God, who greeted him with a smile.
The surprise this young man had brought him was almost overwhelming, but he understood that the stronger Lin Yu became, the more beneficial it would be for him and for humanity.
He was not a narrow-minded person; he could tolerate a junior surpassing him, especially when that junior was his nominal student. He was only pleased, how could he harbor any dissatisfaction?
"You kid, your growth rate is too fast. It leaves this old man struggling to even see your exhaust fumes," the Sword God's handsome face showed a hint of emotion.
Lin Yu chuckled, "Senior, you jest. You are still in your prime. I merely had a talent metamorphosis during a life-or-death crisis. Although my avatars are powerful, my main body is no match for yours."
Does your main body truly not match a demigod? The Sword God harbored deep doubts.
After all, no one in the entire human race was better at hiding things than Lin Yu.
However, the thought of Lin Yu now being able to dominate the demigod realm excited him immensely.
He pulled Lin Yu along and asked, "What level are you among the demigods now? Tell me the truth."
Seeing the Sword God's gossipy demeanor, Lin Yu was taken aback. Your current image is the complete opposite of your usual aloofness.
Lin Yu stated, "Among demigods, I am the strongest!"
Lin Yu was not being humble; he was, in fact, an overwhelmingly powerful existence among demigods.
"My combined avatars are still at the demigod realm, stronger than demigods but far weaker than true gods. Of course, it's not impossible that there are demigods as strong as me."
Lin Yu gazed into the distance, having a feeling that this world might harbor beings as powerful as himself.
Had his recent great battle alerted them?
"I understand. If such demigods truly exist, our recent battle might have disturbed them. Be cautious," he advised.
Lin Yu nodded and replied, "Rest assured, I am always the most cautious."
The Sword God chuckled at this. He was least worried about Lin Yu's safety, after all, this kid was a master strategist.
At this moment, the avatars had finished organizing the fierce beast corpses and divine crystals.
Looking at the pile of shattered meat and the stack of divine crystals, Lin Yu said, "Senior, please choose a few."
Divine crystals had many uses, not only for comprehending the power of laws but also for perfecting one's own path.
The Sword God nodded, crouched down, and searched for divine crystals related to the Way of the Sword.
After a long search, he picked up only one sharp divine crystal and said, "Only this one is helpful to me. The other divine crystals are too far removed from my path and have no value for comprehension."
Lin Yu nodded, understanding this point.
It was best for divine crystals to suit oneself. To enter the demigod realm, one had to comprehend a trace of the laws.
For instance, the Sword God comprehended the law of the sword, and the law of sharpness could complement his path.
In fact, one could comprehend infinite paths, and the demigod realm had almost no limits. However, human energy was finite, and one could not comprehend everything within a limited lifespan.
However, Lin Yu's heart stirred.
Others had only one person, but he had ten thousand!
His speed of comprehending divine crystals was more than ten thousand times that of others, so he didn't need to worry about energy at all.
Having realized this, Lin Yu became somewhat excited, eager to immediately begin comprehending divine crystals and advance his realm to demigod.
Lin Yu cast an ice spell to freeze the meat of the demigod fierce beasts before storing it in his spatial bracelet, to be consumed later using life absorption.
"Senior, what do we do next?"
"Wait."
"Wait?"
"Yes. The fierce beasts in this world have extremely keen senses. They can perceive dead demigod beasts from tens of thousands of miles away. These beasts are dead, and they must have sensed it. We just need to see how they react."
"Will they come?"
The Sword God shook his head. "Probably not. They lack intelligence and act on instinct. Their instincts tell them this place is dangerous, so they won't come."
Lin Yu suddenly understood.
"Senior, now that I am an invincible being in this realm, should we open this world up?"
He had actually had this idea for a long time. This world was vast, much larger than Blue Star.
They had only explored a small portion, with vast areas yet to be explored.
Now that he had become an invincible demigod, he felt it was time to protect his kin.
Let them enter, hunt fierce beasts, obtain suitable divine crystals, and comprehend the Way of the Demigod. If they could add a few more demigods, then humanity would truly soar.
The Sword God pondered for a moment and sighed, "Alright, open it, but don't let them wander too far. The fierce beasts in this world have a grudge against our human race!"
He couldn't help but recall that the fierce beasts attacking Lin Yu this time were all ones he had enmity with in the past.
Over the years, he had offended no less than eighty or ninety fierce beasts.
Although more than a dozen died this time, a large portion still remained hidden. If they sensed the presence of humans, their instincts would surely drive them to seek revenge.
"Rest assured, I will control everything and prevent any tragedies from happening."
"Indeed, I have confidence in your actions. Let's go, we should head back now."
"Good!"
The two discussed the details and then walked towards the passage they came from.
With a flash of light, they vanished from this world.
At the same time.
One hundred thousand miles away from this location, beneath a ruined ancient battlefield, a corpse suddenly opened its eyes.
It was a humanoid corpse, wearing tattered clothes, with a broken scepter in its right hand.
It opened its eyes and glanced at the dark surroundings.
Suddenly!
It looked in one direction, towards the Gobi Desert where Lin Yu was located.
Its expression shifted slightly, and it said, "Pseudo-god!"
It opened its mouth, its voice hoarse, and softly murmured, "By devouring this pseudo-god, I can recover some divine power and reclaim my throne!"
It gently gripped the scepter, raised its arm, and muttered, "After that battle, I was left with only a sliver of divinity and a remnant soul. Now that I've been awakened by a pseudo-god, how can I miss such a golden opportunity!"
"Rise!"
The next moment, it climbed out of the earth and flew towards the Gobi Desert.
