Chapter 331: Chapter 212 How Should This Imperial Princess Punish You?_2
Because ultimately, this is a world where lower-to-middle-tier Transcendents compete in power, while high-tier Transcendents compete in concepts.
Once transitioning to the Fifth Rank, Transcendents’ demand for destructive power isn’t as strong.
For them, the abilities that touch upon Laws and concepts can better display their role in high-end confrontations.
For instance, as a Sixth Rank Demigod, Ivyst possesses several conceptual Extraordinary Abilities like Devour, Evolution, and Annihilation. In confrontations with the Creation Demon, she repeatedly forced him into desperate situations. However, due to the deep foundation of High-dimensional Demon that the opponent possessed, she ultimately was defeated.
At the end of the day, if one wants to progress towards the rank where the Divine reside, understanding the Laws and concepts is an essential path.
And now, despite only being a Second Rank Transcendent, Lynn has unprecedentedly hastened this process.
This process refers to the Destiny Threads that he saw after utilizing the Life Player mode.
If one day, Lynn is fortunate enough to reach the rank of Seventh Rank Saint, this experience will greatly benefit his journey towards becoming a Divine.
There’s no need to even mention the future.
Even now, after entering this state for the second time, the astonishingly quick-learning Lynn felt he had gained something.
To put it clearly, it is… more threads.
The first time he used the Life Player mode, he could only see threads on human beings.
But just a week later, the number of threads he perceived significantly increased.
In this world, not just living beings have what’s called destiny.
Non-living entities do as well.
As a pebble on the beach, its destiny is to gradually become round and smooth from years of sea water erosion, eventually becoming smaller until it is part of the sand.
As a bunch of fire in the fireplace, its destiny is to turn into a wisp of blue smoke drifting into the air after the firewood burns out.
Everything has destiny.
This includes the Transcendent attacks sweeping in from all directions at this very moment.
Among these colorful abilities, Lynn saw many illusory yet real Destiny Threads.
Given this, the task was simple.
“A bunch of idiots,” Lynn shook his head, “in the end, I still have to clean up the mess for you.”
Saying this, his body faintly radiated an illusion-like shimmering light.
This was the sign of entering the Life Player mode.
However, different from the last time, this time he skipped the trick-like costume change process.
Instantly, the young man’s hands suddenly started jumping and navigating as if striking black and white keys in the void, or like a grand tailor weaving fate, carefully directing the finale of a grand opera.
If all the Transcendent moves exploded at once, it’s conservatively estimated that thousands of meters around would become ruins.
Just roughly sensing around, he became aware that in the nearby blocks, at least fifteen people, including a newly born baby, hadn’t evacuated safely.
This was a grudge between himself and Xiya.
Under the Life Player mode, Lynn, who was extremely sensitive to destiny and causality, naturally would not ignore and allow this sudden disaster to affect the innocents.
Accompanied by the sound of a taut string, the space-time before him seemed to freeze in an instant.
When all the present Transcendents realized this, the initiator’s purpose had already been perfectly achieved.
Suddenly, all the Divine-given factor lights blooming in the district seemed to be awkwardly erased by an invisible hand in a brief moment; the entire night sky cleared, and the wind and dust halted as well.
Even Xiya’s Flame Light Spear, which contained powerful energy, disappeared.
Everything seemed as if it never occurred.
If it weren’t for the fact that all the present Transcendents had witnessed everything, they might’ve thought it was an illusion.
Feeling the astonished gazes from all around, Lynn took a deep breath.
It was merely a high-tier usage of Grafting.
By grafting the characteristics of different Divine-given factors together to achieve a canceling effect.
But undertaking such precise and complex calculations in a short period made his body somewhat unable to bear it, as if a steel spike in his head was fiercely stirring about, bringing excruciating pain.
After all, he did this to prevent the battle from affecting the innocents.
Otherwise, Lynn could have used Time Concealment to draw on future time and escape through a crack in space-time right at the start.
That would be a lifesaving skill that even the Princess, unprepared, would find hard to defend against, let alone stop him with just this motley crew.
This place was no longer suitable to linger.
With this thought, Lynn, feeling something intuitively, looked towards the roof eaves in the distance.
In an instant, he and the Great Imperial Princess Hillena locked eyes.
From her gaze, Lynn perceived a very apparent surprise and puzzlement.
Regarding this, he didn’t explain anything, merely smiled slightly and then, like a magician at a grand finale, bowed while brushing his shoulders.
“Don’t think of escaping!!!”
Realizing that he intended to flee, Xiya, burning in platinum flames, arrived instantly, with rolling air currents sweeping in all directions.
But now, he was only Fourth Rank.
