Chapter 413: Chapter 335: Natural Disaster

As Tianlian took step by step treading the void and ascended towards the heavens, her figure became faster and faster with increasing distance from Earth, eventually leaving a string of afterimages behind her like a black lightning bolt shooting through the sky.

As she blazed a trail upwards, the atmospheric conditions grew increasingly hostile. After enduring strong gales, extreme cold, and other environments unsuitable for life, Tianlian found herself unconsciously high above in the sky hundreds of kilometers away.

Here, the air was so thin it was beyond the point of breathability; even sound struggled to travel, and there was not a trace of warmth. It could be said that for any life from Earth, this was the definition of hell.

However, at this moment, Tianlian appeared rosy-cheeked and breathed normally. She even looked unscathed, as if walking on Earth was just as easy.

Looking into the outer space, she saw two interweaving glows and the worry on her brows deepened.

"Running for so long, it seems like I haven’t closed the distance at all. Just as I calculated, approaching the battlefield is not going to be easy."

Meanwhile, various types of intelligence and data constantly flashed through Tianlian’s mind. While she strived to approach the battlefield, she also calculated and corrected her trajectory.

The fierce clash of these two powerhouse fighters reverberated worldwide, and the battlefield they had chosen was one most masters could hardly approach.

Even a mighty triad-level warrior like Tianlian had to exert her full strength to slowly overcome the severe conditions for a prolonged time.

And considering the super-high-speed mobility that erupted between the two combatants, approaching the site would be even more difficult.

Still, Tianlian had found a method.

"Based on my observations over the past seven days, the Zhenglin Star, who still harbors righteous Qi, has retained some restraint, making every effort to minimize the damage to civilians on Earth..."

"With that information, combined with the positions of various cities and key facilities on Earth, I can still roughly calculate their likely direction of movement."

Although Tianlian had found a way, reaching the combatants with her speed would still require a great deal of time.

Ten hours later, while Tianlian was relentlessly progressing towards the two radiating glows, hundreds of huge fiery bursts suddenly burst forth in the vacuum of space, streaking down towards Earth like a meteor shower aimed at the center of a mega-city.

The meteor shower was falling directly toward a mega-city’s center, and Tianlian’s heart tightened watching this:

"An attack of this scale could cause thousands of casualties in that city."

She looked in the direction of the battlefield, her heart sinking further: "Which one of them initiated it? Was it Zhenglin Star?"

Throughout the battle, what concerned Tianlian the most was the change in Lin Xing’s mental state.

The Lin Xing living in the present world, whom Tianlian referred to as Zhenglin Star, possessed a moral baseline that far exceeded many formidable beings of the Mirror World.

The Lin Xing from the Mirror World, who saw the lives of the world as playthings and had no morals to speak of, and whose memories were sealed along with his, was referred to by Tianlian as Evil Forest Star.

"Whether Zhenglin Star or Evil Forest Star, both possess horrifying power."

"Once they engage, it will likely be a fight to the death. As the battle continues, they will inevitably push their strength to the peak, trying over and over again to break through that peak, in order to gain the power to defeat the other."

"But this relentless pursuit of breaking through, this constant push past limits..."

Images of numerous warriors from the Mirror World flooding their past paths through Tianlian’s mind.

"In this battle, Zhenglin Star might immerse himself in negative emotions to obtain greater power, and eventually... little by little, approach the state of Evil Forest Star."

"This means that, as long as this battle goes on, regardless of who wins, the victor left standing will essentially be a Lin Xing with no bottom line, unmatched by anyone."

...

Boom, boom, boom, boom!

Under the combined assault of two figures, Lin Xing was retreating step by step. His Primordial Spirit, under the relentless attacks, shattered and reformed repeatedly, utterly at a disadvantage.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

As he watched Lin Xing under his siege with no power to counterattack, Little Lin Xing burst into a maniacal laugh, his cruelty intensifying with every punch intent he hurled at Lin Xing’s Primordial Spirit.

"Look how weak you are now."

"You’re too weak, far too weak! With your current pathetic state, how could you possibly defeat me?"

If the earlier phase of the fight had seen Lin Xing in a corpse-dissolving state having a slight edge.

Then now, with Little Lin Xing summoning a future shadow to fight two against one, Lin Xing was completely no match.

As Little Lin Xing carelessly turned a pile of space debris into meteors raining down on the city center, his killing intent ignited, becoming more and more tumultuous and surging.

"Do you see?"

"Isn’t it beautiful?"

Seeing Lin Xing trying to stop the meteor shower with his finger from afar, producing sword lights, Little Lin Xing furiously shattered the sword lights with a punch, and his rolling punch intent pressed even harder towards the Primordial Spirit.

"Damn it, still trying to save those wastes on the ground at this time? You really don’t deserve to be me."

Two crimson lights burst forth and Lin Xing and his summoned future shadow became entangled in battle, setting off waves of crimson lightning that exploded within hundreds of miles.

Lin Xing’s Primordial Spirit, filled with hostility, surged towards Little Lin Xing: "Regardless of who wins or loses in our future, we will control this world. Do you really want a world turned into ruins?"

Looking at Lin Xing tangled with the future shadow, Little Lin Xing’s lips curled into a cold smirk: "What’s wrong with ruins?"

"As long as I have enough power, as long as I am invincible, I can do anything I want."

"Just like... now!"

His figure broke through the void, invisible force spreading through the vacuum, as if a pair of invisible hands swept across a mass of cosmic debris.

"You overprotective fool, you want to protect those people below?"

"Then I’ll just ensure to kill them all."

Watching the firestorm falling towards Earth, Lin Xing wanted to stop it but was tightly entangled by the future shadow.

Little Lin Xing, however, crossed his arms and watched the struggling Lin Xing with interest: "Trying to stop me?"

"Then become even stronger."

In the midst of their communication, Little Lin Xing extended his five fingers and a large amount of space debris began to converge in his hands.

"I’m very dissatisfied with you right now,"

"Too weak, too much of a fusspot,"

"You lack the value of defeat,"

"If I defeat someone like you, how can I push myself to become the strongest?"

"So I’ve decided to help you out,"

Looking at the tens of tons of cosmic debris that had gathered in his hands, Little Lin Xing’s lips curled into a sinister smile: "How many people would die if I drop these things... hmm?"

"A few hundred? A few thousand? Or tens of thousands?"

"Hmm... It seems to depend on where it falls, right?"

He looked in the direction of the ground: "Let me see where the tallest building in the world is."

Boom! The raging bloodlight of Lin Xing’s Spiritual Manipulation burst out like sunlight, emitting blinding brilliance.

Watching this scene, Little Lin Xing became even more excited: "I feel your anger,"

"Want to stop me? Want to blast me down?"

"Then embrace your rage, embrace your killing intent, embrace your instincts, and with absolute cruelty, with absolute ruthlessness, completely annihilate every damn thing in front of you! Destroy! Destroy! Destroy!"

Laughing maniacally, Little Lin Xing threw a punch, and the hundreds of tons of cosmic debris before him shot toward the ground like a meteor, bursting into blinding light.

...

The blinding light illuminated the entire sky.

No time to stop it, no time to take shelter.

Under the shocked gazes of countless people, a huge meteor streaked through the sky, plummeting towards the center of the city with terrifying force.

With a thunderous explosion, the tallest building in the world collapsed.

The rising dust engulfed one life after another.

In the midst of many people’s desperate gazes, their world seemed to have turned into hell.

The disaster was quickly reported by major media around the world.

But before people could linger in shock for long, news of meteor attacks in various places around the world continually refreshed the internet.

People were shocked to find that the two silhouettes that had merely emitted dazzling light just seven days ago had now become stars of calamity.

As the battle and movement of the two continued, cities around the world faced the assault of meteor fire rain.

And a large number of operational satellites were destroyed, causing significant disruption to countries’ communication, navigation, meteorology, and other areas.

It could be said that with each passing day, thousands were dying due to the clash of the two, with indirect losses being immeasurable.

...

Three days later.

There were still 32 days until the cataclysmic change.

After witnessing wave after wave of fire rain, Tianlian knew that the situation had deteriorated faster than she had anticipated.

The worst scenario was that Zhenglin Star was the one wreaking havoc on Earth, which meant that his moral baseline was gradually disappearing.

But even if the instigator was Evil Forest Star, it would still agitate Zhenglin Star’s nerves.

This chaotic battle made Tianlian’s goal of approaching the battlefield increasingly difficult to achieve.

Finally, on the third day, as her power was rapidly depleting and nearing its limit, she managed to approach the combatants.

Seeing the two glows draw closer, Tianlian knew she had about three minutes before they would "pass by" her, and this could also be her last chance to communicate with Lin Xing.

And not far behind Tianlian, hidden in the darkness, a beautiful woman’s heart began to stir: "Here they come."

As the two powerful beings approached, waves of terrifying, evil thoughts echoed through the vacuum.

"Trash! Trash! Trash!"

The future phantom continued to grapple with Lin Xing, while Little Lin Xing turned huge swathes of space debris into meteors and hurled them at the city.

"Come and stop me!"

"What are you waiting for?"

The bloodlight suddenly repelled the future phantom and reconstituted into Lin Xing’s flesh and blood.

Seeing the reassembled Lin Xing, Little Lin Xing sensed something different: "Finally decided to switch it up, huh?"

Lin Xing looked at him, his murderous intent unreservedly unleashed: "Mad dog, you really should not exist in this world, it’s great that I can eradicate you this time."

The surging Primordial Spirit rippled in Lin Xing’s sea of consciousness.

Primordial Spirit: 5.0

As Lin Xing reflected, the sword form that Bai Yiyi had assumed was already coiling around Lin Xing’s heart, ready to aid him in his third ascension.

At the same time, a gentle thought reached the battlefield, it was Tianlian’s.

"Lin Xing, stop this death fight with him, he just wants to turn you into a madman as well,"

"He kills so many people, destroys so many cities, all to provoke your time reversal..."

Little Lin Xing frowned: "You’re annoying, it’s not your turn to speak here."

As Little Lin Xing pointed a finger, a torrent of Gang Qi blasted towards Tianlian.
