Chapter 478: Lin Yuan and the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss
Unless it was absolutely necessary, Lin Yuan would rather not create too much tension with the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss.
After all, Lin Yuan's stay in this world was limited. Unless he could find a permanent solution to deal with the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss, he intended to coexist as 'peacefully' as possible.
"I can sense that you have not entered the Dao Ancestor Realm." The Ancestor of the Magic Abyss said, "You are not a Dao Ancestor, yet you possess such profound spatial and temporal comprehension. Therefore, I wish to exchange blows with you."
"Exchange blows?" Lin Yuan nodded, "Very well."
The Ancestor of the Magic Abyss wanted to spar with him, probably to figure out the true nature of Lin Yuan's existence.
By merely sensing and observing, the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss was unable to pinpoint Lin Yuan's exact location. However, if he were to directly attack, it would likely result in a complete breakdown of their relationship.
Hence, the suggestion of a sparring match to test each other's capabilities.
Lin Yuan was also very happy to oblige. Up until now, he had never had the opportunity to face off against an ultimate twelfth-stage being.
On the super-large battlefield, Lin Yuan had swept through and crushed all opposition, but his opponents had all been eleventh-stage powerhouses wielding twelfth-stage weapons.
As for twelfth-stage powerhouses themselves? He had only briefly encountered the Myriad Transformation Mother Emperor of the Insect Race, but he had been immediately separated by a Xuan Yuan pinnacle existence.
"Where do you wish to spar?" asked the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss.
The Magic Abyss was the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss's territory, and his strength would be greatly enhanced here. Hence, the question.
Since it was a sparring match and not a battle between enemies, it was only fair to suggest a more neutral location.
If they were enemies, the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss would naturally not give up any advantage and would not show any courtesy.
"Right here is fine." Lin Yuan glanced around and replied.
"Are you sure?" The Ancestor of the Magic Abyss asked.
Was this Martial Dao Ancestor so confident in his abilities, even in the heart of his domain?
"Yes." Lin Yuan smiled.
Although the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss was a twelfth-stage ultimate existence, he had no understanding of the height of the Sevenfold Spatial-Temporal Realm.
This was not surprising. Although the Immortal Realm was barely on the same level as the Main Universe, beyond the Main Universe lay the Chaotic Void, where numerous twelfth-stage Dominator Realm and even twelfth-stage Chaotic Realm beings resided.
Their understanding of cultivation realms far surpassed that of the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss.
If it were a twelfth-stage Pathbreaker Realm cultivator from the Chaotic Void, upon discovering Lin Yuan's seventh-level spatial-temporal comprehension, they would not even entertain the thought of exchanging blows.
In the center of the Magic Abyss, the vast and empty space echoed with the presence of Lin Yuan and the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss facing each other from a distance.
"You may attack first."
"If you can land a hit on me, you win."
Lin Yuan smiled as he looked at the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss.
The Ancestor of the Magic Abyss shrunk his body to a size of about ten meters. A deep and pitch-black aura surrounded him, like a black hole devouring the surrounding demonic energy from all directions.
"Does this Martial Dao Ancestor think that I can't even touch him?" The Ancestor of the Magic Abyss stared at Lin Yuan, thinking to himself.
Yes.
He indeed could not pinpoint Lin Yuan's exact coordinates.
However, the inability to lock onto specific coordinates did not mean he could not attack.
It was like a complex anthill; someone outside might not be able to locate a single ant inside.
They wouldn't know where that ant was in the anthill.
But to deal with that ant, one did not necessarily need to find its exact location.
One could simply destroy the entire anthill, ensuring the ant's demise.
The Ancestor of the Magic Abyss had a similar idea. Since he couldn't lock onto Lin Yuan's position, he would destroy everything within his sensory range.
"Be careful, sir." The Ancestor of the Magic Abyss raised his hand, and a vast demonic energy surged forth. In an instant, a large area of spacetime collapsed.
As a twelfth-stage existence, the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss's every action influenced the surrounding spacetime. Like a fish in water, even a casual flick of its tail could create layers of ripples.
Whoosh!
The terrifying spacetime shockwaves instantly spread in all directions, engulfing Lin Yuan as well. Infinite demonic energy surged towards him.
Lin Yuan stood quietly, unmoving. All the demonic energy seemed to pass through him as if he were one with the void, and then it surged towards the back.
After the wave of demonic energy passed, Lin Yuan still stood there, as if nothing had happened, aside from the trembling spacetime that surrounded him.
"It had no effect at all?" The Ancestor of the Magic Abyss felt pressured.
The attack he had just launched was a test, specifically targeting the breadth of Lin Yuan's spatial-temporal comprehension.
In the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss's opinion, even if he couldn't defeat Lin Yuan, he should at least be able to affect him in some way, perhaps by leaving residual waves that ruffled Lin Yuan's clothes.
But now...
His attack seemed infinitely far from Lin Yuan's true position.
"That was a good move." Lin Yuan nodded in appreciation.
Facing an attack from a twelfth-stage ultimate existence was indeed a rare experience for Lin Yuan.
The Sevenfold Spatial-Temporal Realm kept Lin Yuan in an absolutely safe state, allowing him to observe the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss's previous attack in greater detail.
"Good?"
The Ancestor of the Magic Abyss took a deep breath, and the entire Magic Abyss began to shrink, "Then, take a look at this move."
Rumble!
From all directions.
Up, down, left, and right.
Countless layers of spacetime seemed to freeze, trapping Lin Yuan like an insect in amber. Then, at the edges of spacetime, tiny cracks began to appear.
The cracks quickly spread, expanded, and split, soon covering everything in sight.
The next moment.
The surrounding spacetime seemed to shatter like broken glass, revealing huge patches of pitch-black spacetime fissures. The Ancestor of the Magic Abyss's attack had torn through all the spatial layers of the Immortal Realm, creating a massive rift that connected to the outside.
"Hm?"
The Ancestor of the Magic Abyss looked at Lin Yuan's previous position once more and saw that he was still standing there, unaffected by the destruction that filled the surroundings with an aura of great annihilation.
This scene shocked the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss.
"I have completely penetrated the spacetime of the Immortal Realm, yet it seems to have had no effect on the Martial Dao Ancestor?" The Ancestor of the Magic Abyss immediately realized something, "The spacetime where this Martial Dao Ancestor resides is probably beyond the Immortal Realm. Even if the Immortal Realm is destroyed, it won't affect him in the slightest."
"That move from the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss was indeed much more powerful than the previous one." Lin Yuan immediately praised, "You're getting closer to me. Shall we continue, Ancestor of the Magic Abyss?"
In reality, the Ancestor of the Magic Abyss's attack was still quite far from Lin Yuan's specific spacetime position, but it was necessary to encourage him to keep trying.
"No need."
"It seems I truly cannot touch the Martial Dao Ancestor."
The Ancestor of the Magic Abyss fell silent for a moment before speaking again.
