667. Show No Mercy
Rainbow Supreme ultimately resumed her cultivation. Despite her lingering doubts about Lin Fei, the evidence before her eyes was undeniable. Lin Fei had the power to end her life effortlessly yet chose not to act against her. This reassurance was difficult to ignore given the rare opportunity provided by the Time-Space Corridor, which Rainbow Supreme was loath to forfeit. She seized every moment to cultivate.
Her two companions, though severely injured, had not perished. It is not easy for a Supreme to fall. Aware that Lin Fei had saved them, they were profoundly grateful and likewise devoted themselves to cultivation.
Lin Fei, however, remained unhurried and did not enter any Time Bubbles. Accelerated time had little to offer him now; what he needed was the essence of chaotic behemoths or the origin of worlds. Ideally, that of a True Immortal-grade world or even a Realm's origin—only such could further elevate or transform his Eternal Realm.
Time gradually passed. It might have been Rainbow Supreme's misfortune, but not far from them, another group of three Supremes arrived. Their intentions were clearly malevolent as they fixed their gaze on Rainbow Supreme and her group.
Eventually, their focus shifted to Lin Fei.
With a swift motion, Lin Fei opened his eyes, his glance fleeting. He then spoke in an even tone, "Leave within three breaths. Otherwise, I will show no mercy!"
His words incited some anger among the three Supremes, yet Lin Fei paid them no heed, instead calmly counting the time.
One breath!
Two breaths!
Quickly, two breaths passed. The three Supremes still had not made a decision; instead, they looked around, seemingly still harboring intentions towards Rainbow Supreme and her group.
Clearly, these three Supremes were confident in their own strength, confident enough to disregard Lin Fei's warning. They paid no heed, undeterred by the threat posed.
"Three breaths!" Lin Fei's gaze turned icy.
The allotted time had expired, and since he had declared there would be no mercy, he intended to keep his word.
"Hum," the Illusory Realm descended the next moment, and with it, the Eternal Realm emanated from Lin Fei, mingling with the Illusory Realm in a powerful surge.
Instantly, the three Supremes trembled, their eyes clouding with confusion. However, their disorientation lasted only a moment before clarity returned—astonishingly within less than a breath.
"Huh?" Lin Fei expressed his surprise. These three Supremes possessed remarkably resilient wills, breaking free from the Illusory Realm's grasp almost immediately—a testament to their formidable mental fortitude.
However, Lin Fei was prepared for this. His power was not limited to the Illusory Realm. He understood that the Illusory Realm was not entirely reliable since it targeted the spirit, and a strong-willed opponent could resist it. Hence, he had also unleashed the Eternal Realm within the Illusory Realm.
As strong-willed as these three Supremes were, it availed them naught. "Swoosh," Lin Fei's Eternal Realm enveloped them, and in an instant, they were swept into his Eternal Realm.
"What is this..."
"How did this happen?"
"We can't move!"
"Where are we?"
Panic set in among the three Supremes as they found themselves in a strange, empty void. They attempted to leave, but suddenly, a terrifying pressure descended from all directions, overwhelmingly suppressing them. These were three Supremes, nearing top-tier status, yet now they were subdued?
"This is a realm!"
"This person might possess some relics of a world."
"Perhaps, he can even embody a world!"
"If I'm not mistaken, he must be a top-tier Supreme."
"We are in danger..."
"What, a top-tier Supreme?"
The realization threw the three Supremes into complete disarray. A top-tier Supreme, capable of slaying ordinary Supremes, stood far above them in might and fear. The most daunting aspect of a top-tier Supreme was their ability to eliminate other Supremes—that was where their true power lay.
Yet, in such a place as the Time-Space Corridor, how had they encountered a top-tier Supreme?
"Mercy, please, mercy!" the three Supremes pleaded. Facing a top-tier Supreme, they had no choice but to beg for their lives. To resist was to embrace death.
"I said, three breaths and no mercy if you don't leave!" Lin Fei declared coldly. "This isn't your first time engaging in such acts. You don't deserve mercy!"
Lin Fei showed no compassion. These individuals were not worthy of pity; the number of Supremes they had likely slain was not insignificant.
"Annihilate!"
With Lin Fei's command, the process of obliteration began within the Eternal Realm. A terrifying force slowly enveloped the three Supremes, causing their bodies to start disintegrating and collapsing.
They did not want to die nor did they accept their fate willingly. "You forced our hand," they cried out in desperation. "No choice now, let's detonate!"
With determined expressions, the three Supremes chose to self-destruct. Their simultaneous explosion was a monumental force, shaking the entire Eternal Realm. Even Lin Fei's realm was momentarily torn asunder, the void collapsing under the immense force of their last desperate act. This illustrated the terrifying power of a Supreme's self-destruction.
However, Lin Fei's Eternal Realm ultimately withstood the assault. The self-destruction of three Supremes was not enough to destroy it. Not three, not even thirty Supremes could obliterate the Eternal Realm.
As the Eternal Realm gradually stabilized, Lin Fei sensed something amiss. A smile crept over his lips. He had detected an anomaly within his realm—an external life form, not originally part of the Eternal Realm. Though very subtle and seemingly blended with the life within the realm, nothing could entirely escape Lin Fei's perception.
"Swoosh."
Lin Fei's form flickered, moving through the void of the Eternal Realm. This was merely a projection of his being, but in essence, Lin Fei was the Eternal Realm, and the Eternal Realm was him. The so-called projection was just a habit; he didn't truly need it to deal with the three Supremes.
Indeed, the three Supremes had not perished. Their self-destruction was merely a ruse, a desperate attempt to escape detection by merging with divine demons within the Eternal Realm. They had employed a special method to integrate with the life forms within the realm, hoping to elude Lin Fei's keen senses. However, they were unable to evade detection and were swiftly discovered by Lin Fei.
"Annihilate!" Lin Fei didn't bother with words this time. He simply pointed his finger.
"Putt."
At the next moment, the three divine demons were targeted. With Lin Fei's pointed gesture, the bodies of these entities—and thus the integrated Supremes—began to rapidly disintegrate, crumbling into dust.
"No..."
The three Supremes screamed in despair. Their voices formed ephemeral visages in the void but to no avail. They had become one with the divine demons, and with the destruction of these bodies, their fates were sealed. In the presence of Lin Fei, mere divine demons could not contend.
With the obliteration of the three divine demons, the three Supremes were thoroughly eradicated. No trace or essence of them remained. Once ensnared within Lin Fei's Eternal Realm, the struggle was futile. Life and death were entirely at Lin Fei's discretion. Such is the power of the Eternal Realm. Such is the might of a top-tier Supreme.
"Swoosh."
Rainbow Supreme opened her eyes, her expression complex. In just a short span, Lin Fei had dispatched three more Supremes. Along with the earlier five, that totaled eight Supremes who had met their end at his hands.
It was perhaps the first time Rainbow Supreme truly understood just how "fragile" a Supreme could be, that life and death were not always in their own hands. Venturing through the Chaos as a Supreme was perilous; encountering a top-tier Supreme meant a one-way path to demise, with escape a mere fantasy.
"Senior, I have nearly completed my cultivation," Rainbow Supreme finally said, steeling herself to ask, "May I know, on whose behalf are you acting?"
