Orderly tyrant

A light mist drifted through the restricted area, where massive white-gold statues stood tall on either side of the road.

Beneath one of these statues—a deity with arms outstretched, as if holding up the sky—a pale-faced youth in a black uniform sat leaning against the base. His eyes were closed, his expression blank, and wisps of black fire flickered intermittently across his skin.

“Yan, how are you holding up?”

An elderly man with graying hair sat beside him, saying, “Hold on a little longer. The Boss and Mr. Fu are still outside trying to find a way. We’re not necessarily facing a dead end.”

The youth slowly opened his eyes, which were filled with exhaustion, and said in a low voice, “It’s no use, Professor Sogg. I never intended to leave here alive.”

Professor Sogg frowned and said, “Don’t give up. You’ve already scared the Zhixing Group. They won’t dare send anyone else in here. Maybe a miracle will happen in a few more days?”

“I don’t have many days left to live. What good would it do to leave here?” The youth slowly shook his head.

Professor Sogg couldn’t help but sigh.

He suddenly turned his head slightly, frowning. “A patrol envoy is coming. I’ll distract them and buy you as much time as I can.”

With that, he took a deep breath and quickly left.

“Yan.”

At that moment, a deep voice suddenly sounded from the communicator hanging on the youth’s ear: “Irena Doe has decided to secretly help you escape, and it’s not like you’re beyond saving.”

“Boss, don’t you know how much life I have left?” the youth said softly. “Forget it.”

“You’re giving up?”

The Boss’s deep voice suddenly gained a hint of anger. “When you were killing those people, I told you it wasn’t necessary to waste so much power. Following the plan to kill that Zhixing Group genius who grew up on Earth would have been enough. Only his divine title, ‘Hyper-Sense Hunter,’ poses a significant threat at the end of the year. The others aren’t worth you wasting your life on.”

The Boss said angrily, “If you had just escaped directly, who could have caught you? If you had acted according to the plan, this wouldn’t have happened! What about what you promised me?”

“...Forget it.”

The youth was silent for a long while before shaking his head. “According to your plan, who knows when I’d be able to avenge the Doctor? It’s too far off. I’ve killed a large group now, making the Zhixing Group feel the pain. Isn’t that good enough?”

“You’re making excuses?” the Boss said in a low voice. “The Zhixing Group doesn’t care about those directors—just a group of hopeless, primitive, ordinary divine title holders. Even the chairman isn’t that important. Only when that Hyper-Sense Hunter, who can play a role in exploring Earth’s treasures, dies will the Zhixing Group truly start to feel the pain.”

The youth slowly closed his eyes, murmuring, “That’s enough… I’ve exhausted my life helping Doctor Chu Hui get revenge. What more do you want…”

The Boss fell silent.

After a long while, it said in a low voice, “The Doctor was right. This Black Flame, as a power beyond the sixth level, really does affect the mind. I saw your self-destructive tendencies before. This time… are you actively seeking death?”

The youth murmured, “Maybe. Originally, I planned to follow your plan, but when I completely burned my life, that feeling was so exhilarating… It was almost like approaching the essence of life…”

He suddenly smiled. “I’m very happy now… If I had known this feeling earlier, I wouldn’t have had to endure so many years…”

The Boss said in a low voice, “Have you forgotten how the Doctor treated you? He treated you like his own child and always wanted you to live longer. In the end, he preferred to die himself to let you live. Have you forgotten all of this?”

“I…”

The youth slowly opened his eyes, a flash of ferocity suddenly crossing them. “Did I ask him to be good to me? Yes, when he found me on the spaceship, I begged him to save me, but I was still young then. I didn’t understand anything. He took it upon himself to let me live for so long, wasn’t it because I was a Black Flame clan member and had great research value?”

“You…”

The Boss was first stunned, then said with uncontrollable anger, “You know best in your heart whether the Doctor treated you as a research tool or not!”

“So what?” the youth said coldly. “You’re an intelligent life form. Except for Doctor Chu Hui, don’t you not care about anyone else? Your thinking is only about revenge. You don’t care about killing innocent people. I just want to end it as soon as possible. What’s wrong with that?”

He closed his eyes again. “Enough, I’m tired and I’ve had enough. I don’t understand that boring emotion of Earthlings, and I don’t want to understand…”

The Boss was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice, “Yesterday, someone said he could come and save you. I’ll ask you one last time. Are you still willing to live?”

“Save me?”

The youth suddenly opened his eyes, and terrifying Black Flame flashed in his eyes. “I finally welcomed this day. Now you want me to live? Let me go… Otherwise, whoever comes to save me, I’ll kill.”

The Boss was completely silent.

Suddenly—

“As expected of the Black Flame clan, just like the legends…”

A mocking female voice suddenly rang out. Faint light flickered in the distance, revealing a blonde woman with blue eyes, looking at the youth with a smile that was not a smile.

The youth looked at her wearily. “Could it be that you’re the one who’s here to save me?”

The Boss’s deep voice rang in his ear: “This is just a phantom formed by thought power. It’s a Zhixing Group’s thought power secret technique.”

The youth smiled. “Here to kill me? That’s good.”

The blonde woman also smiled. “The company’s investigation was indeed correct. The legendary Black Flame clan likes self-destruction, loves death, and can sometimes even suppress the instinct to survive. No wonder such a powerful race is so weak…”

She sized up the youth. “It’s good that I don’t want to waste my strength. You’re already a flickering candle in the wind. If you want to die, then die.”

She originally wanted to secretly look for an opportunity to kill with one blow, but her thought power had spied on the conversation between this youth and the communicator. Naturally, she didn’t want to waste her hard-earned power.

According to the data, after the Black Flame clan’s survival instinct is suppressed by the desire for self-destruction, she doesn’t need to do anything at all.

If she took action, it would instead arouse the other party’s survival instinct.

Moreover, she also wanted to obtain the Black Flame clan kid’s corpse. The less damage, the higher the research value.

“Thank you,” the youth slowly closed his eyes.

“How interesting.”

The blonde woman said with interest, “A self-destructive Black Flame clan member, an intelligent life form bound by emotions? Anyway, you can’t kill me, so why don’t we chat?”

“What is there to chat about?” the youth asked with his eyes closed.

“You’re both very special, and it’s obvious that you don’t belong to Earth’s civilization.”

The blonde woman said, “The company has always suspected that Doctor Chu Hui may have discovered that part of Earth’s pre-civilization treasures in reality. Now it seems… this may not just be a rumor?”

The youth was expressionless. “I don’t know anything, and I’m not interested.”

“The Black Flame clan is all tired of the world, I understand.”

The blonde woman smiled. “Chu Hui’s intelligent life form, Boss, I’m not the one who killed Chu Hui. Why don’t you tell me the secret? After I rise to power, I’ll solve the people who killed Chu Hui for you?”

The Boss’s cold laughter rang out in the communicator: “Despicable Zhixing people, I wish your civilization would be destroyed. What are you dreaming about? Do you think I’m as easy to deceive as the Three-Eyed Clan?”

“Tsk tsk, what an emotional intelligent life form. You wouldn’t be evolving into a mechanical race, would you?”

The blonde woman sighed. “Then let’s change the subject. Boss, you just said that someone was coming to save this Black Flame clan member? You can actually contact the outside from inside the restricted area? Who is that person?”

The Boss was silent for a moment, then said, “Yan, if you want to die, then die, but before you die, you have to try to kill her.”

“I’m very tired…”

The youth kept his eyes closed. “It’s already the end, can’t you just let me end quietly?”

“Are you acting, Boss?” the blonde woman said. “Is this to pretend that someone is coming to save you? Or is it reverse thinking, and someone is really coming?”

In terms of computing power, living people naturally can’t compare to intelligent life forms, so there’s no need to play mind games.

Therefore, she also understood the best way to deal with this situation.

“Then I’ll wait here.”

The blonde woman smiled. “I want to see if someone will come to save you?”

Although she wasn’t a divine title holder, she was a primitive life form, and a dual primitive of thought power and genes. She had also successfully transplanted a third eye a few days ago.

Although her strength was not as good as those primitive life forms with a divine title foundation, she was much stronger than those patrol envoys.

In this second restricted area, unless someone as terrifying as Yan came, she wouldn’t be afraid of anyone.

Suddenly—

The blonde woman raised her eyebrows slightly. Her spreading thought power discovered a figure ten kilometers away.

In the drifting mist, a young man from Earth was walking over.

She remembered this Earthling’s information. He was an elite patrol who had recently entered to explore.

Seemed to be called… Lin Qing?

What a coincidence?

He was approaching this direction?

The blonde woman immediately became suspicious and immediately observed him carefully with her thought power.

But she quickly discovered that the other party seemed to be really searching carelessly. That aimless, perfunctory attitude was exactly the same as other patrols.

“That’s right, how could a little guy without even a divine title come to save someone, I’m really overthinking…”

The blonde woman laughed self-deprecatingly. “But, just in case… let’s test him.”

She immediately began to use thought power to give a subconscious reminder: “Come over here, come over here… complete your goal…”

People who have not awakened thought power cannot perceive the existence of thought power.

Under her reminder with primitive-level thought power, it was impossible for a little guy to perceive or resist.

If he really came to save Yan, then kill him.

…

“Idiot…”

Lin Qing cursed in his heart, while pretending to search, while thinking in his heart.

Although he had completely restrained his own thought power, he was also the first to sense the spreading thought power, which was a powerful thought power far beyond him.

He also heard the other party’s subconscious reminder.

For him, even if it was a reminder within his subconscious, he could know what the other party was reminding him of.

[Order level decreased by 5.6]

As the blood-red prompt that appeared in front of him, it made him even more certain.

Even a patrol envoy didn’t have this kind of threat, let alone such a powerful thought power.

The other party was definitely a primitive life form, most likely the three-eyed Zhixing woman he met before entering the restricted area, or perhaps disguised as one of the elite patrols in this batch?

Lin Qing immediately guessed a lot based on the existing information.

“Didn’t directly attack, but used subconscious reminders to let me go over? Complete my goal?”

“That direction is the place agreed upon with the Boss to meet…”

“It seems she has already discovered Yan, perhaps more than just discovering him…”

Lin Qing pretended to have a careless, perfunctory attitude and continued to move along this road, constantly thinking and speculating about various possibilities in his heart.

“It’s okay, since she didn’t choose to attack directly, it means she’s still testing me, I just need to get a little closer…”

At the same time, the light door in Lin Qing’s mind—the Gate of Eternity—also began to slowly rotate, and a light spot appeared in the center of the light door, fluctuating slightly, like a screen.

After careful perception, this light spot also transformed into the appearance of a three-star elite patrol.

At the same time, a piece of information appeared in his mind.

“Awakened life form, soul of the Destruction faction?”

Lin Qing immediately understood the meaning of this information.

—This is an application of the Gate of Eternity that he discovered.

Even if it was a target he couldn’t see, as long as it was within a certain range near him, any life form that met the standard of the Eternal Clone would be captured by the Gate of Eternity and reflect its soul and life essence.

That is to say, as long as it was a life form of the same level as him, it would not be able to escape the capture of the Gate of Eternity within a certain range.

However, for now, the reflection range was not large, probably only a few hundred meters.

But it was also a good method.

“Even if Yan hides, as long as I get within a few hundred meters, it’s fine.”

Lin Qing still pretended not to notice the thought power’s reminder to his subconscious and went in that direction.

At the same time, the Gate of Eternity in his mind was also constantly rotating slowly, trying to reflect the nearby life forms. Once he discovered Yan, he could capture him.

Anyway, he had already arranged an escape route.

It’s just… after entering the restricted area, he can’t leave within 34 hours. When trying to cross the border of the restricted area, he will only feel that the thick fog at the border of the restricted area is endless.

So, he still had to be careful.

Under sixty times the gravity, the energy consumption of action was also relatively large. After Lin Qing slowly walked for half an hour—

“Hmm?”

Lin Qing suddenly felt a movement in his heart, stopped, pretended to replenish his energy, took out a special potion and took it, and at the same time, the Gate of Eternity in his mind also stopped rotating.

On the Gate of Eternity, the soul and life essence of a young man had already been reflected.

At the same time, a piece of information floated in his mind:

“Awakened life form, soul of the Life system.”

Lin Qing was overjoyed: “It’s Yan!”

Before he came, Chenguang had already shown him Yan’s photo, and the headquarters had also provided Yan’s photo information.

He naturally recognized him at a glance.

Although it was slightly different from Yan’s life essence, the Gate of Eternity was the most real appearance deduced based on genes.

Injuries, diet, state, etc. would naturally cause certain changes in appearance.

Unless they are twins with the same soul lineage, it's unlikely to mistake someone, but Yan, this Blackflame Clan youth, is unique.

Lin Qing immediately moved his mind, "Capture."

In the next moment, the Eternal Gate in his mind shook slightly, completely locking onto Yan's life essence and soul imprint.

Subsequently, Lin Qing pretended to walk slowly and casually in another direction.

...

Below the statue, within the hidden disguised scene.

"He's gone?"

The blonde woman raised her eyebrows slightly, "Indeed, it was just a coincidence."

Even if the other party was just searching because they were unsure of Yan's location, her subconscious reminder could have led them here.

But the other party didn't come this way, obviously their target wasn't Yan.

However, the blonde woman still observed for a long time, making sure the other party had left her psychic detection range before she finally felt relieved.

...

Lin Qing left the range of that powerful psychic radiation and moved over ten kilometers away before stopping.

"Next, I just have to wait for Yan to die."

Anyway, it would be at least another thirty hours before he could leave this Second Forbidden Zone.

He didn't know how long Yan had left to live or whether his soul could pass through the barriers of this forbidden zone after death, but he just had to wait in the forbidden zone until Yan died.

Immediately, Lin Qing pretended to search casually and continued to wander around aimlessly.

He didn't delay his cultivation to repay his debts, he could just find a place at random.

It's just that the sixty times gravity is a bit troublesome, he has to constantly activate his battle technique and consume energy to resist it, otherwise, he would hardly be able to withstand this high-gravity environment with his personal physical fitness alone.

Fortunately, he has already cultivated to the instinct level, and even in a cultivation state, it can be naturally activated by instinct.

If it were any other three-star elite inspector, they wouldn't dare to relax and cultivate in this state.

...

A few hours later.

While Lin Qing was wandering around in the forbidden zone, he happened to run into an acquaintance.

It was Tang Wanqiu.

"Director, why are you here too?" Lin Qing couldn't help but ask.

"The rewards for this mission are quite generous, so I came to get some too."

Tang Wanqiu said this while using a special technique to transmit her voice: "Minister Xu is worried about your safety in the Second Forbidden Zone and specifically asked me to come in to protect you."

Lin Qing knew that this technique, similar to voice transmission into the ears, was exclusive to inspectors, so he didn't say much, just nodded slightly.

After all, everyone has a mission recorder installed on their chest, which can record the images, sounds, actions, vital signs, and so on in front of them at all times.

However, he can transmit his voice with telekinesis, so it doesn't matter.

"Lin Qing, have you found any trace of Yan?"

Tang Wanqiu transmitted her voice while walking beside Lin Qing: "Minister Xu said that the Autonomous Faction has decided to try to save Yan."

Lin Qing raised his eyebrows slightly, save Yan?

"Although Yan isn't from Earth, he is from the Original Research Institute, and he seems to have acquired a rare profession."

Tang Wanqiu transmitted her voice: "Even in the Second Universe Network, his strength is extremely strong, and he can play a huge role when exploring Earth's treasures in the future."

"Moreover, he was trained by Dr. Chu Hui."

Tang Wanqiu transmitted her voice: "Dr. Chu Hui seems to have had many wonderful opportunities, and may even have discovered the part of Earth's treasure that is in reality, maybe Yan has clues on him."

Earth's treasure?

A part of it is in reality?

This was the first time Lin Qing had heard of this.

"Yes, there must be some in reality."

Tang Wanqiu seemed to have noticed his doubts and casually explained through voice transmission: "The Second Universe Network is, after all, a virtual world. The treasures only contain data, knowledge, techniques, and so on, but no real objects."

"But Earth's former civilization was so glorious and powerful, there must be real objects. Judging from the discoveries when exploring the treasure in the Second Universe Network, a part of the treasure is in reality, but we just don't know where it is hidden."

She transmitted her voice: "What is certain is that the treasure in reality is divided into multiple parts, and more than one person should have found it. Dr. Chu Hui is one of them, and it is suspected that Curator Qi and Dean Chu have also found one of the treasures in reality."

Lin Qing suddenly understood.

That's right, Dr. Chu Hui not only possessed the precious Star Transmission Tower, but also found the Blackflame Clan, which was said to be almost extinct. This could no longer be explained by good luck.

Moreover, Qi Lingxiao, Chu Hongjun, and Irenaudo were all able to take out 21 grams of Starlight Source Stone, just to know the name of the Authority and the amount of Starlight Source Stone required, which was also very strange.

These three were clearly also controlled by the Z Star Group, but even the Z Star Group couldn't take out 21 grams of Starlight Source Stone, yet these three were extravagant enough to take out 21 grams each for testing.

Was it to determine the strength of the Authority?

It sounded like only Irenaudo was close to succeeding.

It felt to him like… as long as the Authority met the requirements, then the three of them would really have a chance to awaken?

"Dr. Chu Hui was captured by the Z Star people, perhaps for this reason."

Tang Wanqiu sighed and transmitted her voice: "Now, only that young man 'Yan', who was raised by Dr. Chu Hui and treated as his own child, has clues."

Lin Qing understood her meaning.

Yan was not only powerful in combat, able to play a huge role when exploring the treasure in the Second Universe Network, but he may also have clues to the treasure in the real world.

No wonder the Autonomous Faction was willing to come to this Second Forbidden Zone to search.

However…

The Autonomous Faction obviously didn't know that a terrifying original lifeform had already entered this forbidden zone.

A threat as high as level 5.6 is definitely much stronger than an ordinary inspector.

Lin Qing pondered for a long time, then suddenly transmitted his voice with telekinesis: "Director, I advise you to change your plans."

Tang Wanqiu was slightly stunned at first, then looked at Lin Qing in shock, and transmitted her voice in surprise: "Lin Qing, you…"

"Yes, I have awakened telekinesis." Lin Qing transmitted his voice with telekinesis.

If it were other people from the Autonomous Faction, he wouldn't trust them, but he could still trust Tang Wanqiu.

If Minister Xu and Tang Wanqiu really wanted to harm him, as long as they leaked the fact that he possessed Instant Light, the Z Star Group would definitely force him to sign a contract of servitude.

Apart from himself, he had never seen a second person who had developed a core gene ability, which showed how rare it was.

So, it wouldn't matter if there was one more telekinetic awakener.

Moreover, Irenaudo already knew of the existence of him as a telekinetic awakener.

Tang Wanqiu was silent for a while, took a deep breath, and transmitted her voice: "I understand, don't worry, even if I die, I won't let the Z Star people know."

Lin Qing shook his head slightly and transmitted his voice: "It's nothing, it'll be fine when I become a cosmic citizen."

"You said just now… let us change our plans? Did you discover something?" Tang Wanqiu asked through voice transmission.

"Yes."

Lin Qing transmitted his voice with telekinesis: "A Z Star person has mixed into this Second Forbidden Zone, Inspector Roderick calls her 'Guloch', she is an original lifeform with three eyes."

"Guloch?" Tang Wanqiu was stunned at first, then frowned: "So it was her?"

"Does the Director know her?" Lin Qing asked.

"I've heard of her… she is also native to Earth, but her experience was rather special, and she failed to obtain a godhood."

Tang Wanqiu transmitted her voice: "Guloch was originally the most outstanding genius of the Z Star Group. During her awakening period, before she went to obtain a godhood, she was attacked by extraterrestrial stowaways. In order to survive, she had to break through and transform into an original."

Lin Qing suddenly understood.

It is said that Z Star people with three eyes have a higher status in the Z Star people.

This Guloch clearly had three eyes, but she didn't even have a basic godhood, which seemed very strange.

So that was the reason.

After all, only awakened beings can obtain a basic godhood. Once they transform into an original, they can only try for an original-level godhood.

And it has to be a strong person with a basic godhood, the most outstanding among the original lifeforms, to have a chance to obtain an original-level godhood.

Guloch was obviously far from it.

"I see."

Lin Qing transmitted his voice with telekinesis: "I sensed Guloch's telekinetic search before, she should have found Yan a long time ago."

"Then we really have to terminate the plan." Tang Wanqiu took a deep breath and transmitted her voice: "I'll contact the other inspectors, you stay here."

Lin Qing nodded slightly.

Suddenly—

"Boom!"

A huge roar came from the distance, and a terrifying aura spread out at the same time.

Tang Wanqiu suddenly turned her head to look.

Lin Qing narrowed his eyes slightly.

If he remembered correctly, that direction was where Yan was.

It seemed… it was already too late.

...

Beneath the huge white-gold statue, two headless corpses with exploded heads lay on the ground, blood splattered everywhere.

Professor Sogg and the three surviving inspectors looked at this scene in disbelief across from the young man 'Yan'.

At this time, Yan's body was surrounded by black flames, and his right hand had turned into a demonic cyan giant hand with seven blood-stained fingers. In those eyes burning with black flames, there was an inhuman indifference and violence.

"This…"

"Yan! What are you doing?"

Professor Sogg couldn't help but shout angrily: "They are here to save you! What do you mean by this?! Why are you burning your life to kill them?"

"Professor Sogg, I said… let me go, I'm very tired…"

Yan looked at Professor Sogg and said slowly: "Or… do you want to die too?"

Professor Sogg couldn't help but be stunned.

The other three inspectors also couldn't believe it. They were clearly here to save this young man, why were they killed?

Suddenly—

"What a big胆子."

A blonde woman walked out slowly from behind the nearby statue, and at the same time, her appearance and body began to change, and in a blink of an eye, she returned to the appearance of a three-eyed Z Star person.

"Guloch!"

Everyone looked at the three-eyed short-haired woman in shock and despair.

They had naturally heard of this former genius of the Z Star Group, but they didn't expect that she had also mixed in?

"It seems that you are all from the Autonomous Faction and the United Faction of Earth Civilization?"

Guloch sneered: "You actually want to save people behind the backs of the Z Star Group? What? Do you lowly Earthlings really think that this little bit of power can shake the Z Star Group?"

She turned her head and glanced at Yan, her eyes somewhat complicated as she said: "Yan, you kill them."

This was the first time she had seen Yan take action with her own eyes, and it was even more terrifying than she had imagined!

Logically speaking, he was clearly just an awakened being, even if he had a rare godhood with strong combat power, she should be able to gain the upper hand with her strength.

But the terrifying power that this Blackflame Clan youth burst out in that instant really made her feel fear.

It was too terrifying.

"Enough…"

Yan glanced at the remaining people, the black flames on his body dissipated, and his demonic right arm returned to normal.

However, he also became more weakened and tired.

Yan leaned back against the statue again and said with his eyes closed: "They won't save me anymore… I don't want to kill people, let me go…"

Guloch's eyes moved slightly, and she suddenly smiled: "Okay, then I'll do it."

As she spoke, the third eye at the center of her brow opened.

An astonishing aura spread out, and the third eye suddenly emitted a dazzling light, frantically condensing at one point.

"Escape separately!"

Seeing this, the inspectors realized that there was no need to fight anymore, and immediately scattered and fled to the surrounding area.

"Want to escape?" Guloch smiled.

In the next moment—

She suddenly turned her head to look at the young man Yan next to her, and the light that had been condensed to the extreme at the center of her brow burst out, shooting a scorching beam of light condensed to the extreme directly onto Yan's head at near the speed of light.

"Chī!"

In an instant, Yan's head was directly pierced by this beam of energy light, and instantly exploded with the energy torrent.

Then the corpse also fell down.

"Hahahaha…"

Guloch suddenly laughed loudly, "You monster, you finally died in my hands!"

She was not afraid of those inspectors at all, and with her telekinetic search, she could track them down and kill them all if she spent some more time.

But the power that this Blackflame Clan youth had just unleashed really made her feel fear.

She originally thought that the other party was in a weak state and no longer posed any threat to her. She was very confident that she could kill him, so she wanted to save her strength.

But that scene just now completely woke her up.

What she was facing was not prey that she could slaughter at will, but a terrifying monster that could pose a fatal threat to her as long as there were variables!

So, she changed her mind.

She finally reserved the strike that she had been accumulating for a long time with this eye for this terrifying Blackflame Clan youth.

"It's better to be safe…"

Seeing this monster turn into a corpse, Guloch finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the eye at the center of her brow slowly closed.

She also rubbed her brow wearily.

The power accumulated in it was completely exhausted, making her feel a little empty.

"Next, I will hunt down these Earth natives who don't know whether to live or die…"

Guloch revealed a relaxed smile, released her telekinetic probe, and was about to leave when she suddenly paused.

She saw that the Blackflame Clan youth who had already fallen suddenly slowly climbed up from the ground, and terrifying black flames surrounded his exploded head, beginning to regenerate and repair frantically.

"Hey…"

Enveloped in swirling black flames, the headless youth staggered to his feet, his voice transmitted through the vibrations of energy.

"I told you, I'm dying. Why do you still want to kill me…"

Gu Luoqi was first stunned, then screamed in terror, "You monster!! Die!"

Silver-white arc blades flew from her body, transforming into whistling beams of cold light under the control of her psychic power, all aimed at the youth who was still being repaired by the black flames.

However, after the silver-white beams of cold light penetrated the youth's body, they could only barely embed themselves in his skin and shallow muscles before losing their power. At the same time, streams of black flames continuously emerged from each wound, beginning to frantically repair the damage.

"Mon… Monster…"

Gu Luoqi was dumbfounded.

At this moment, she finally realized just how terrifying the legendary Black Flame Clan truly was.

If not for the self-destruction brought about by the balance of the universe, she couldn't even imagine how powerful the Black Flame Clan could have become!

Even her home, the Yuan Chen civilization with hundreds of life-bearing planets as its territory, a civilization with hundreds of thousands of years of history and a small reputation in this star system, couldn't afford to provoke such beings!

"Hey, answer me… Do you want to die too…"

At this moment, the youth, who was covered in black flames, began to swell, his skin constantly turning a ghastly deep cyan, as if he was about to transform into a terrifying demon.

A terrifying aura spread out, causing Gu Luoqi to tremble slightly.

She was clearly a primordial being with a higher level of life!

Just then—

The black flames suddenly extinguished, and the youth's injuries abruptly stopped healing, as if he had lost all power, and he collapsed to the ground with a crash.

"Ah… Finally…"

Accompanied by the youth's soul-deep sigh of relief, his body turned to ashes in the black flames.

Gu Luoqi couldn't help but be stunned, kneeling on the ground with weakened limbs, staring blankly at the ashes on the ground.

…

Dozens of kilometers away.

Lin Qing slowly closed his eyes, his consciousness sinking into the Eternal Gate in his mind.

Just now, the Eternal Gate in his mind had finally welcomed its first soul.

The first divine clone was born!

Sorry, adjusting my condition, the update is a bit late.
