Chapter 956: Holding the Sun and Moon, Plucking the Stars—None in This World Are Like Me!
"Lin Mu of the Earth Blessed Land!"
In the silence, the third on the Heaven Rankings suddenly stood up.
"Ju Sheng!"
"It’s him, he’s going to face Lin Mu?"
"Can he win?"
"Hard to say, but Ju Sheng has sat cultivating beside the Enlightenment Stone for seven thousand years. His strength should be terrifying, right?"
The top ten on the Heaven Rankings were all peerless monsters.
Some of them hadn’t even been challenged for thousands of years.
So even those in the top hundred had no idea just how terrifying the top ten really were.
"I am Ju Sheng of the Spirit Platform Blessed Land, East Victorious Divine Continent!"
Ju Sheng clasped his hands behind his back, his gaze brilliantly bright, as if divine light flickered within.
Lin Mu pointed the Yulong Sword at him. "If it’s a fight you want, then fight!"
Buzz!
A flash of white light. The two appeared atop the arena.
Ju Sheng’s face twitched. He hadn’t even finished his lines, and the other party had already initiated the challenge.
What arrogance!
"Lin Mu..."
Ju Sheng suddenly sent a voice transmission. "You challenge the number one on the Heaven Rankings, then give the spot to me. I will lead you into the Spirit Platform Blessed Land, how about it?"
"My master, Lord of the Spirit Platform Blessed Land, is a Tribulation-Crossing Ancestor. If you join the Spirit Platform Blessed Land, we can help you protect your Blessed Land!"
Ju Sheng had obviously seen through Lin Mu’s purpose in entering the Sky Temple and actually tried to entice him.
Maybe another newly ascended Earth Realm Master really would be persuaded.
But who was Lin Mu?
Let alone a mere Tribulation-Crossing Ancestor—even an Immortal was unqualified to have him submit!
Slaying Gods and Demons and Punishing Immortals, Twelve Forms!
Deicide Fist!
Lin Mu threw a punch straight at Ju Sheng.
"Bastard!"
Ju Sheng cursed furiously, forced to make a move in response.
Only when facing Lin Mu personally, in this very instant, did he truly experience how utterly terrifying Lin Mu was.
That horrifying punch pinned him down completely!
No matter how he tried to draw upon his power, he couldn’t move an inch.
Forget counterattacking—he couldn’t even dodge!
What a tragedy.
The dignified third place on the Heaven Rankings, yet he didn’t even have the chance to strike!
Bang!
Just one punch!
Ju Sheng exploded!
"You bastard! You’re dead!"
After his body reformed, Ju Sheng immediately sat cross-legged and began to Integrate Dao!
He had no face left to remain in the Sky Temple.
"Lin Mu, I’ll remember you. Once I get out, I will lead Da Jun to annihilate your Earth Blessed Land!
Ju Sheng’s gaze was venomous as he spat out this shameless threat.
A cold light flashed through Lin Mu’s eyes as he suddenly stepped forward!
One Step, Rivers Shatter!
Boom!
A terrifying shattering force erupted in all directions, but was firmly suppressed by the Sky Temple’s power!
"Hahaha, idiot! You want to hurt me inside the Sky Temple? Dream on!"
Seeing Lin Mu actually make a move within the Sky Temple, Ju Sheng burst out laughing, his face full of mockery.
The other geniuses in the top hundred also stared at Lin Mu in shock.
Had this man been blinded by victory?
He actually wanted to kill someone in the Sky Temple?
Even the first and second on the Heaven Rankings were looking at Lin Mu with flickering eyes.
They didn’t believe someone of Lin Mu’s level didn’t understand the rules of the Sky Temple.
Him striking now—other than making himself a laughingstock, what was the point?
Lin Mu ignored the cold, watching eyes of the others and continued his assault!
Terrify Ghosts and Gods with the Second Step!
Third Step: Heaven and Earth Change!
Four Steps Stars Tremble!
Five Steps to Make the Buddha Kneel!
Sixth Step: Evil Demons Weep!
Six steps in a row, and every face among the top hundred on the Heaven Rankings changed.
Their mockery and sneers vanished, replaced only by grave solemnity.
"What Divine Skill is this? It’s actually this terrifying!"
"If this were outside the Sky Temple, with this Divine Skill, he could probably fight even those who have Integrated Dao!"
"Terrifying! Just who the hell is this Lin Mu of the Earth Blessed Land?"
"How foolish of Ju Sheng, to drag a colossal enemy onto his Sect for nothing!"
"Heh, with talent like this, Transcending Tribulation, even becoming an Immortal is within reach. If he doesn’t die, the Spirit Platform Blessed Land is the one that’s screwed!"
When Ju Sheng had been threatening him just now, they had actually felt sorry for Lin Mu.
This Earth Realm Master from the Barbarian Continent Domain might be about to lose his Blessed Land.
But now, their thoughts had completely flipped!
Those six steps made them realize: if Lin Mu grows, the one doomed will definitely be the Spirit Platform Blessed Land!
Ju Sheng’s face was pale, his expression twisted!
He hadn’t expected the other party to be this monstrously strong!
"He has to die! This man must die!"
Ju Sheng made up his mind. Once he returned to the Spirit Platform Blessed Land, he would definitely ask the Ancestor to personally take action and eradicate this fiend!
Otherwise, the future calamity would be immeasurable!
Right then, Lin Mu’s seventh step landed!
Seven Steps to Reverse Time!
Back when he first entered the Sky Temple to comprehend Divine Skill Conceptual Realms, Lin Mu had discovered that among the Sky Temple’s countless Divine Skills, there was not a single one related to time!
So when the ripples of Distortion of Years spread out, everyone’s expression changed!
Because they saw that the ripples of Distortion of Years actually passed straight through the Sky Temple’s defenses and shot directly toward Ju Sheng!
"Impossible!"
Ju Sheng turned pale with terror, wanting to retreat, but the Sky Temple’s defense blocked him.
The Sky Temple’s protective barrier had become the prison that would kill him!
Buzz!
A single ripple of Distortion of Years swept past, and Ju Sheng instantly aged by several thousand years, white hair appearing at his temples.
"The power of time!"
The first and second on the Heaven Rankings sprang to their feet, shock in their eyes.
Even in the Heavenly Realm, the power of time was the hardest to control!
There wasn’t even any corresponding Divine Skill Conceptual Realm within the Sky Temple to comprehend!
"No! Don’t kill me. I take back what I said just now... I’m willing to offer up my soul and become your Puppet, don’t—"
Realizing that Lin Mu really could kill him, Ju Sheng finally panicked.
As a monstrous genius of a Blessed Land, his future was boundless—how could he die in the Sky Temple!
Pleading was useless!
The second ripple of Distortion of Years arrived!
Ten thousand years of lifespan!
Ju Sheng’s appearance instantly became withered and gaunt!
The third!
The fourth!
Puff!
Ju Sheng’s bones and flesh separated, turning to flying ash.
He was forced to grow old and die in front of everyone!
At that moment, every genius in the top hundred on the Heaven Rankings went deathly pale with fright.
The reason they could act so recklessly inside the Sky Temple was simply because no one could kill here!
Even if you could suppress an enemy, no one was willing to waste their comprehension time on such pointless things.
But now, someone could kill within the Sky Temple!
This exceeded every genius’s expectations.
In fact, in the Heavenly Realm’s records spanning billions of years, there had never been such a precedent!
After killing, Lin Mu’s eyes were as calm as an ancient well as he looked faintly toward the first and second on the Heaven Rankings.
Their expressions froze.
If it were only defeat, the two of them might have still fought, at least losing with some dignity.
But this monster could actually kill inside the Sky Temple!
"Du Yun of the Skyblue Holy Lands, East Victorious Divine Continent, pays respects to Senior Lin!"
"Pushe of the Grand Bright Temple, West Ox Continent, pays respects to Senior Lin!"
The first and second on the Heaven Rankings both bowed their heads, respectfully conceding and yielding their positions to Lin Mu.
Three battles to seize rank one!
Lin Mu created a brand‑new, unprecedented record!
He came before the Enlightenment Stone, sat down cross-legged, and began Divinity Transformation!
Buzz!
The instant he sent his Divine Sense into the Enlightenment Stone—
It was as if he had arrived in a wondrous Another World.
Here, the sky was filled with starlight.
Some of the starlight was distant and obscure; some was joyful and intimate.
The distant and obscure ones were Conceptual Realms Lin Mu had yet to comprehend.
The joyful and intimate ones were Conceptual Realms Lin Mu had already mastered!
With sun and moon in hand I pluck the stars, in all the world none are like me!
These two lines surfaced in Lin Mu’s mind.
The next moment, endless starlight surged toward him!
Divinity Transformation—begins!
PS: With sun and moon in hand I pluck the stars, in all the world none are like me!
Nor are there any like you!
