The high-level demon in the Wanxiang realm, exuding an overwhelming aura, was already approaching.
Lu Yu calmed his mind, focusing all his attention on this battle before him.
Rumbling~ The small world shook violently. Without even seeing the attack, the small world was fiercely assaulted.
Lu Yu steadied himself, divine soul power flickering in his eyes. He saw hundreds of black chains appear outside the small world.
These chains emerged from the void, wrapping around the small world, continuously contracting, trying to crush the space-time barriers of the small world.
It didn't require much thought for Lu Yu to realize that this was an attack launched by the high-level demon of the Wanxiang realm.
Using the Chains of Order directly for an attack was indeed something Lu Yu hadn't anticipated.
The Chains of Order are a power more closely aligned with the rules of the Heavenly Dao than the power of heaven and earth.
The high-level demon of the Wanxiang realm materialized the Chains of Order, using them as weapons to attack Lu Yu's small world.
Lu Yu raised his hand and launched a strike, the stars behind him shimmering. A star power transformed into a beam of light, blasting at the Chains of Order.
Bang! The fragile Chains of Order splintered in the explosion, disappearing into the void.
After the flames dissipated, the pitch-black Chains of Order still entwined around the small world, the damage on the Chains of Order automatically and rapidly repairing.
The star power capable of destroying mid-level demons of the Wanxiang realm couldn't even sever a single Chain of Order.
However, Lu Yu's face showed no surprise or shock, his expression as usual; this outcome was within his expectations.
He just didn't expect that the Chains of Order would be even more stable than he had imagined.
Not strong, but stable.
Battles between those in the Wanxiang realm are essentially collisions of the rules of heaven and earth.
Every being in the Wanxiang realm has their unique understanding of the rules of heaven and earth. The contest in the Wanxiang realm is about whose insight into these rules is closer to the Heavenly Dao and can exert stronger power.
Clattering~ The Chains of Order trembled as two Chains of Order, shining with a bluish hue, stabbed towards Lu Yu.
Lu Yu manipulated the power of the small world to form an absolute space-time barrier in front of him.
But as the two Chains of Order were about to hit the absolute space-time barrier, they suddenly turned into two rays of light, penetrating the barrier unhindered, striking Lu Yu.
Pu chi~ The Chains of Order pierced Lu Yu's body, wrapping around him over ten times.
The bluish light reflected on Lu Yu's face, making him look somewhat ominous.
Lu Yu felt his life force withering and draining rapidly; these two Chains of Order contained the power of Deathly Silence, devouring Lu Yu's life force and longevity.
The power of Deathly Silence!
Lu Yu was exceedingly familiar with this power; he had obtained the ultimate inheritance of the power of Deathly Silence β the Great Annihilation Technique β in the Netherworld.
Originally, he planned to refine his index finger bearing the runes of the Deathly Silence Law into a Divine Soldier.
But later, he found a better top-tier Spiritual Object and abandoned the idea.
Most importantly, the power of Deathly Silence overlapped with the power of Taiyin, making it unnecessary to refine two Divine Soldiers with similar attributes.
He could not forsake the power of Taiyin, so he had to set aside the power of Deathly Silence.
Later, he began cultivating the Cosmic Method of Transformation, converting his cells into star cells, and also absorbed the runes of the Deathly Silence Law in his index finger.
It can be said that his understanding of the Deathly Silence Law was only second to the nine Divine Soldiers and the Law of Slaughter.
Of course, compared to the high-level demon of the Wanxiang realm, he was still too weak.
His understanding of the Deathly Silence Law could at most slow down the speed at which the two Chains of Order absorbed life energy just a little bit.
Lu Yu raised his hand, and the million stars beneath his feet gradually lit up. As his arm rose higher, more and more starlight entered his arm.
When he placed his arm on the Chains of Order, his arm transformed into light.
Buzz~ The power of a million stars converged in his right hand, and the moment he grabbed the Chains of Order, a tremendous force was unleashed.
This force hadn't fully erupted yet and was thoroughly suppressed by Lu Yu.
Click~ He had grabbed hold of the Chains of Order.
The Chains of Order are a manifestation of rules and theoretically shouldn't be touchable.
Though the two Chains of Order penetrated Lu Yu's body, upon closer inspection, one would notice that there were no wounds on Lu Yu's body.
The two Chains of Order did not actually touch his body.
In fact, Lu Yu didn't literally "touch" the Chains of Order, but rather the starlight of the star laws gathered in his hand made contact with the Chains of Order.
Essentially, it was a collision of laws.
The star law attached to Lu Yu's arm quickly extinguished upon contact with the Chains of Deathly Silence.
But it couldn't withstand the fact that Lu Yu's hand held the power of a million star laws.
Before all the light of the million star laws extinguished, Lu Yu could extract the two Chains of Deathly Silence entwining him.
Crackling~ The Chains of Deathly Silence vibrated, emitting sounds.
"Ah~" Lu Yu roared, forcefully pulling out the Chains of Deathly Silence embedded in his body.
Crack~ The Chains of Deathly Silence broke, shattering into countless fragments of Chains of Order, dispersing into the heavens and earth.
The remnant Chains of Deathly Silence within Lu Yu's body quickly disappeared after the Chains of Order broke, but the life force and longevity he had lost could not be recovered.
The collision of laws between beings in the Wanxiang realm is terrifying, often consuming various essences.
If one isn't careful, life force can deplete, longevity can exhaust, and essence can diffuse⦠all of which are severe injuries, difficult to recover from.
Therefore, unless they have already determined they must kill the opponent, those in the Wanxiang realm won't employ chains of laws, and battles won't escalate to the level of such rigorous collisions of law comprehension.
