Chapter 1118 36: Why Is It So Hard? (Please Subscribe)

"King Lingshen?"

"The youngest core royal family of the Great Da Ling Ancient Country?"

Many Great Lords, including Marquis Purple Dream, showed slight excitement.

Apart from a Heavenly Venerate, no one underestimates a core royal family at the realm of Great Lords.

On the vast majority of local battlefields, a core royal family at the Great Lord realm represents supreme combat power.

"Lingshen."

King Chijue quietly gazed at King Lingshen, "You are younger, I will let you take the first strike."

"If that's the case, then I shall make my move."

King Lingshen was not modest, raised his right hand, and punched forward.

This punch was completely contained, yet as it advanced, time and space retreated, exuding a deathly aura.

"Hmm?"

King Chijue's expression slightly changed.

When he said to let King Lingshen strike first, it was not carelessness; rather, it was because he was adept at defensive techniques.

Allowing the opponent to strike first does not put him at much disadvantage; instead, it could test the opponent's true capabilities.

But King Lingshen's punch made King Chijue feel pressure; with merely the first strike, not even at full force, it had such might?

King Chijue sensed something amiss in his heart.

Whoosh.

Around King Chijue, flame lotuses bloomed one after another; King Lingshen's punch shattered more than ninety thousand flame lotuses, and finally the might slowly dissipated.

"Hahaha, exhilarating."

King Lingshen laughed heartily, "Chijue, let's fight up there, too many restraints here."

The battle between two core royal families covers too wide an area and would affect the clashes between the pinnacle Great Lords below; such an impact is indiscriminate.

Fighting here, the two core royal families would be constrained.

"Okay."

King Chijue nodded.

Whoosh!

King Chijue and King Lingshen disappeared from where they stood.

Immediately, two terrifying waves clashed fiercely at a higher level of time and space.

Below, the pinnacle Great Lords also allocated part of their focus to observe; the collision between two core royal families was far more intense than that of the dozen or so pinnacle Great Lords.

"No need to focus on Prince Red Pine anymore."

Lord Qingfen immediately transmitted his thoughts to other pinnacle Great Lords.

Barring accidents, it's unlikely the battle between King Chijue and King Lingshen will have a quick outcome; most likely, they will keep each other occupied.

Thus, the outcome of this war primarily depends on the outcome among the pinnacle Great Lords.

"Brother Hongye, can you hold off that one?" Lord Qingfen looked at the towering pinnacle Great Lord.

It was precisely this pinnacle Great Lord's intervention that nearly completely suppressed the pinnacle Great Lords from their side; if not for King Chijue's timely support, the situation would have turned dire.

"Leave it to me."

Great Venerate Hongye nodded.

The towering Great Lord was successful because they were unguarded.

If Great Venerate Hongye specifically focused on the opponent, it would not be easy for the towering Great Lord to execute that deadly move again.

"Third Brother."

On the battlefield's rear, Prince Red Pine was also paying attention.

As the commander of this war, Prince Red Pine was keenly aware of the battlefield situation, knowing that as long as King Lingshen couldn't break free, they would most likely hold the line.

"Lingwei, if the war enters a stalemate, let's see how long you can last."

Prince Red Pine pondered; the war initiated by King Lingwei, affecting dozens of domains, also bore a significant cost, and without significant results, the war surely couldn't last long.

The candidates for the throne over at the Great Da Ling Ancient Country surely wouldn't want an extra competitor. If King Lingwei becomes stagnant in the frontline war, it equals giving those candidates a chance.

...

Defense Line Battlefield No. Shisan.

Lin Yuan was also focused on the core battlefield, especially after King Lingshen and King Chijue appeared, their clashes produced terrifying waves, bringing considerable insights to Lin Yuan.

"Truly powerful, surpassing the pinnacle Great Lords."

Lin Yuan observed carefully; the fighting style of this world's strong beings differs greatly from those in the Chaos Void.

Especially between core royal families, the main clashes are between Bloodline Talents, tapping into the deeply entrenched bloodline strength, leading to an explosion of power rivaling or even surpassing the forces that evolve from chaos.

"No wonder it's said that core royal families are almost impossible to break into the Heavenly Venerable Realm..."

Lin Yuan mused, as he now realized that neither King Lingshen nor King Chijue were walking the path of Chaos Evolution.

Their abilities relied entirely on their own Bloodline Power.

However, Bloodline Power has its limits; without comprehending Chaos Rule, without understanding the path of chaos evolution, one can never enter the Heavenly Venerable Realm.

To be precise, even core royal families are not true Great Lords. The so-called core royal families at the Great Lord realm merely dig into their Bloodline Power to a certain extent.

"So that's why the Heavenly Venerates disregard the royal families?"

Lin Yuan thought internally, for the Heavenly Venerates who delve deeply into the path of chaos evolution, each core royal family is a brute, with shallow rule mystique, relying entirely on Bloodline Talent for such formidable combat strength.

"Actually, core royal families can also comprehend rules, explore the path of chaos evolution, but compared to the excavation of their own bloodline power, it is simply too slow."

Lin Yuan looked towards the battlefield from afar.

Ordinary royals even would comprehend rules, because their Bloodline Power cannot support rapid progress past the Great Lord.

But the core royal families?

Given that time, extracting more Bloodline Power yields greater improvement.

Despite the numerous blessings from Seeds of the Fierce Sun, compared to Bloodline Power, it is still too slow.

"Hmm?"

"The way King Lingshen utilizes his bloodline seems somewhat superior to King Chijue?"

Although Lin Yuan was watching the core royal families' battle for the first time, he quickly detected something.

...

Higher Time and Space Battlefield.

King Chijue's expression was solemn as he stood atop a massive flame lotus with screens of lotus barriers floating around him.

While King Lingshen, akin to a giant hammer, continued to pound towards King Chijue, the entire gigantic flame lotus trembled slightly with each blow, showing signs of nearly reaching its limit.

"Lingshen, have you already grown to your limit?"

King Chijue's expression faintly revealed disbelief.

The relative strength among core royal families is measured by the degree of Bloodline Power excavation.

The higher the excavation of Bloodline Power, the stronger the combat strength; fully digging out one's ancestor's bloodline signifies growing to the fullest.

This stage of core royal families can reach their peak and challenge a Heavenly Venerate.

Of course, challenging a Heavenly Venerate isn't equating or matching a Heavenly Venerate, but it's indeed unprecedentedly powerful.

Next, if the core royalty wishes to advance further, they must honestly comprehend the rules and cross into the Great Lord or even Heavenly Venerate from the level of rules.

"Hahaha, is reaching the ultimate growth really that difficult?"

King Lingshen showed no intention of holding back and continued to bombard King Chijue's protective flames shaped like a lotus.

For King Lingshen at this moment, King Chijue posed no threat; it was only a matter of time to tear apart the other's shell.

"This is troublesome."

King Chijue's expression was grave.

With King Lingshen's current strength, there was no way to stall him.

Under such circumstances, it would have a revolutionary impact on the situation among the peak Great Lords below.

Once I fail to stall King Lingshen, his attacks on those peak Great Lords would be inevitable.

...

At the rear of the battlefield.

Prince Red Pine suddenly heard King Chijue's urgent voice.

"Red Pine, King Lingshen has reached his ultimate growth, I am not his match. Now try to stall him as much as possible, quickly arrange for all Great Lords to retreat."

Upon hearing this.

Prince Red Pine's expression changed drastically.

"King Lingshen has reached the ultimate growth?"

Prince Red Pine immediately reacted.

He understood King Chijue's intention at the same time.

Let all Great Lords retreat into Qingfen City, then rely on the defense matrix of Qingfen City to hold out until the Fierce Sun Ancient Country sends in their core royalty of the same level for support.

Facing a core royalty at their ultimate growth in battle, there was no chance on Prince Red Pine's side of stopping them.

Only by leveraging the full defense of Qingfen City could they hold out a while longer until the Ancient Country's support arrived.

"Retreat."

"All Great Lords immediately retreat."

Prince Red Pine simultaneously transmitted commands to all Great Lords.

As the battlefield commander, Prince Red Pine had the means to instantly contact all Great Lords.

...

"Retreat?"

"Immediate retreat?"

"Prince Red Pine wants us to retreat immediately?"

Lord Qingfen and other peak Great Lords received the message and were a bit bewildered.

However, no one dared to defy Prince Red Pine's intention, and all Great Lord-level powerhouses began to retreat into the battlefield matrix.

These battlefield matrices, although arranged temporarily, could still hold off a few breaths, even against peak Great Lords.

Very soon.

All peak Great Lords and numerous other Great Lords arrived in front of the Space-Time Passage at the rear of the battlefield.

The Space-Time Passage began to operate instantly.

During the brief wait.

All Great Lords were in uproar.

"Why does Prince Red Pine want us to retreat?"

"It doesn't make sense, we're not at a disadvantage?"

"Even if we're at a disadvantage, there's no need to retreat completely?"

The various Great Lords didn't quite understand.

Lin Yuan, amidst the crowd, grasped the reason for Prince Red Pine's command.

In his view, in the higher space-time, King Chijue was already teetering under King Lingshen's assault.

...

In higher space-time.

"Hahaha, Chijue, you've fallen for it."

King Lingshen gazed down at the battlefield below, observing all Great Lords in Qingfen Domain gathering before the Space-Time Passage, a smile surfaced on his face.

"Fallen for it?"

King Chijue's expression changed slightly.

"Do you think you can stall me?"

King Lingshen mocked and then swiftly pressed his right hand down, thoroughly suppressing King Chijue.

Then King Lingshen extended his right hand towards the battlefield's Space-Time Passage, reaching out to grab dozens of Great Lord-level powerhouses.

"Not good."

King Chijue's expression changed drastically.

Given the battlefield situation, even if King Lingshen is a core royalty reaching the ultimate growth, it doesn't necessarily mean Prince Red Pine's side will lose.

As long as all the Great Lords safely retreat to Qingfen City, relying on the defense matrix, they could still hold out for some time.

Besides the defense matrix, Qingfen City also had a teleportation matrix connected to the national capital's teleportation matrix.

If given time for the Fierce Sun Ancient Country to react, they could definitely deploy another core royalty who had also achieved the ultimate growth.

But that premise is for all Great Lords to retreat entirely and safely to Qingfen City.

Only with dozens of Great Lords jointly managing Qingfen City's defense matrix could they barely hold off King Lingshen's attack for a short period.

If there weren't dozens of Great Lords stationed in Qingfen City, even with the city's strong defense matrix, it would be like water without a source, completely unable to withstand King Lingshen.

If Qingfen City falls, the Qingfen Domain would roughly fall too, affecting neighboring dozens of domains, increasing their danger.

Rumble.

In front of the Space-Time Passage.

Originally planning to go through the Space-Time Passage to return to Qingfen City, dozens of Great Lords suddenly felt the world change, surrounded by dimness, with five gigantic pillars towering.

...

In higher space-time.

King Lingshen looked at his right hand, which he had withdrawn, with dozens of Great Lords now trapped within his palm, akin to ants.

"Chijue, you lost this war."

King Lingshen laughed wantonly, then gently squeezed his right hand amidst King Chijue's despairing gaze.

In an instant.

In the palm, dozens of Great Lords only felt those five massive pillars collapse, space-time paths all crumbling.

However.

Halfway through his grip, King Lingshen's smile froze, filled with shock and uncertainty, as he gazed at his half-clenched right hand.

Why is it so hard?
