Planet Pulverizer: A Mortal's Ascent-Chapter 607: Reincarnation

"Everyone has their own thoughts, their own stance, and their own interests. So, where does the question of coercion even come into play?" Li Pin said with a faint smile. "But that's not the point. The point is..."

He turned his gaze to Mu Yunsheng, his interest piqued. "Yan Ling'er has an innate affinity, and it seems you also possess some powerful trump card that can turn the tide at a critical moment.

"That's why the Void Divine Treasury Hall entrusted you with such an important task. But what's amusing is that you actually believe these so-called powerful techniques of yours are enough to deal with me?"

Mu Yunsheng chuckled lightly. "I've long learned not to place too much trust in promises. Fortunately, I came prepared."

With a wave of his hand, sixty-four True Gods around him immediately took their positions, forming what appeared to be a formation.

"Li Pin, I've studied your background in detail. You're a human prodigy who failed to walk the path of an Astral Cultivator due to your poor talent in Astral Cultivation. You excel in combat and once even defeated a combat-specialized avatar of an Astral God using two Solar Flare Divine Weapons."

Amid his speech, his Divine Kingdom expanded, enveloping all sixty-four True Gods. Unlike other God Kings or God Monarchs, Mu Yunsheng's Divine Kingdom was unique. When it resonated with the power of the True Gods, it faintly resembled a nascent Astral Formation.

With this Divine Kingdom, structured like an Astral Formation, and the continuous amplification of power from the True Gods, his aura surged at an astonishing rate. It rose so fast that it broke through the limits of a God Monarch and approached the realm of the Ancient Gods.

Li Pin watched with mild surprise. An Ancient God? Most legendary pioneers have mastered the Perfect State. Combined with Ancient God-level power...

Mu Yunsheng had indeed given him an unexpected surprise.

"You think you're the only one who narrowly missed becoming a top human prodigy due to a lopsided talent? I, Mu Yunsheng, have mastered the path of Astral Formations. In the entire Golden Rain Star Domain, I am the greatest Astral Formation Master in history. Before even becoming an Astral God, I could already construct God-level Astral Formations."

As he finished speaking, his Divine Kingdom unleashed a surge of power imbued with Astral God energy, shrouded in mysteries beyond ordinary comprehension. In an instant, Li Pin was engulfed by it.

"Now, experience the terror of being dominated by an Astral Formation prodigy!"

The formation shifted, and Li Pin found himself in an entirely new world. His vision and perception became distorted, while a strange force seeped into his inner spirit through his thoughts, attempting to cloud his inner spirit awareness.

Any other pioneer would've found their senses clouded, preventing them from unleashing their most powerful techniques. But this obstruction meant little to Li Pin, who had already begun to glimpse the essence of the True Spirit.

He waited calmly and patiently.

When he saw that no more changes were happening, he raised his gaze and looked to the right. "What's next?"

His gaze seemed to pierce through the barriers of the world constructed from the Divine Kingdom, landing directly on Mu Yunsheng, who was presiding over this virtual world's formation.

The moment their eyes met, Mu Yunsheng's expression turned taut. Without hesitation, he swiftly altered the formation, and the surrounding environment shifted violently—from outer space to a desolate, lifeless planet.

Li Pin turned his head again, his gaze locking onto Mu Yunsheng, who had shifted to his rear right. "And then? Where's that God Monarch-level power of yours?"

Mu Yunsheng's pupils dilated sharply. "You—"

Li Pin seemed to realize something. "I see now. Your true goal wasn't to defeat me but to trap me here, to keep me from interfering in Baili Qingfeng's battle with the Ancient Gods. All these flashy illusions and tricks were just to reinforce that trap. And while I waited for your next move, you mistook it for a sign that your confinement had succeeded?"

He let out a sigh. “It’s my fault that you’ve all come to have this illusion. Therefore...”

In the next instant, a towering giant suddenly surged out from his body.

"Dao Manifestation!?" Mu Yunsheng’s gaze turned sharp. “Who do you think you are!? I was going to let you off, but since you're so eager to throw yourself into reincarnation, I’ll grant your wish!”

As the formation surged, brilliant light mingled with terrifying lightning, swiftly condensing into a massive grinding disc. It spun at high speed, hurtling straight toward Li Pin.

While Mu Yunsheng attacked, Li Pin's Dao Manifestation grew at an astonishing rate. It was as if he had formed a wondrous, almost mystical harmony with the heavens and the earth, drawing boundless energy from the world around him, or more precisely, from the Divine Kingdom.

When the destructive disc struck, it triggered a massive energy explosion, even shattering a section of Li Pin's Dao Manifestation. But in mere moments, the damaged portion rapidly regenerated, replenished by the surrounding energy.

Not only that, the manifestation opened its mouth wide and swallowed the grinding disc whole. The destructive energy within was swiftly neutralized, its energy absorbed and integrated into the Dao Manifestation, further strengthening its presence.

"How dare you!" Seeing Li Pin so arrogant, Mu Yunsheng's gaze turned cold. "Explode!"

Through his spiritual will, Mu Yunsheng triggered violent tremors within the destructive grinding disc, causing the energy inside to teeter on the brink of chaos.

Yet, just as the devastating power was about to erupt within Li Pin's Dao Manifestation, Mu Yunsheng clearly sensed his connection to that energy fading.

That sensation felt as if an irresistible force had stripped away his control, seizing authority over the energy entirely. The destructive force within was completely neutralized, its danger erased, and the remaining energy smoothly assimilated into Li Pin's manifestation.

Mu Yunsheng was shaken. Such control!

"The Perfect Realm!?"

Reaching a level comparable to the Ancient Gods so quickly was shocking enough, but stepping into the Perfect Realm in such a short time...?!

Li Pin effortlessly reclaimed control over the power and frowned.

In the next moment, his Dao Manifestation ceased its expansion. Instead, it simply closed its fist.

As its fingers curled, a massive vortex formed around its palm, twisting and distorting wildly in all directions.

As time passed, the vortex grew larger, threatening to engulf the entire Divine Kingdom and tear it apart.

"Not good!"

Mu Yunsheng immediately mobilized the Divine Kingdom's power. The other sixty-four True Gods followed suit, unleashing their divine might in resonance.

Sixty-five True Gods combined their strength into a single force and struck at the vortex.

Yet, before their power could reach the vortex's core and destroy it, the highly condensed energy of the sixty-five True Gods began to disintegrate, shaken apart by violent tremors. free𝑤ebnovel.com

It was like a seemingly solid material shattering into pieces the moment it breached the sound barrier, overwhelmed by the intense vibrations and torn apart instantly.

The combined power of the sixty-five True Gods, amplified by the formation, was swiftly divided and torn apart under the force of the vortex. They were reduced to fighting individually, unable to unite their strength.

One by one, the vortex in Li Pin's palm crushed them, refining their power into pure energy that surged into his Divine Manifestation.

Under the force of that strike, they not only failed to tear apart Li Pin's Dao Manifestation, but it instead grew even more majestic and awe-inspiring.

"Impossible!" Mu Yunsheng's eyes widened in disbelief. "To reach a level rivaling the Ancient Gods in such a short time is one thing, but to wield that power with such precision!?"

"So, even with the Astral Formation, all you've managed is raw Ancient God-level strength?" Li Pin mused, a hint of disappointment in his tone. After a moment, he found it understandable. "It makes sense. This is only your first cycle. The Ancient God Realm is a completely foreign system to you. A few more stellar years, and you might have mastered it. But one stellar year... is far too little."

The excitement in his eyes gradually faded, giving way to anticipation for the future.

"In the next cycle, I'll be waiting for our battle."

As the words left his mouth, the vortex in his Manifestation's palm trembled violently, collapsing inward at an accelerating rate. The force of its collapse pulled the entire Divine Kingdom with it, causing it to implode.

With the Divine Kingdom—the foundation of the Astral Formation—falling apart, Mu Yunsheng could no longer sustain the augmentation from the sixty-four True Gods. Everyone, himself included, was dragged toward the vortex, like stars falling into a black hole.

"Retreat!" Mu Yunsheng let out a low roar, unleashing all his strength to break free.

He could barely resist the vortex's devouring, grinding, and annihilating force, but the True Gods were powerless against it. One after another, they were pulled in, their divine bodies torn apart.

In this world's cultivation system, a God King or God Monarch relied on their subordinate gods to wield power beyond the True God level. As these True Gods perished, Mu Yunsheng's strength rapidly weakened. Initially, he was barely able to resist the vortex's pull, but now... he no longer had enough strength to prevent himself from being dragged in.

"Stop!" His spirit trembled. "Pioneer Li, we believe you truly meant to stay uninvolved. With your strength, if you had intervened, even the Ancient Gods wouldn't have been able to stop you—"

"No." Li Pin's expression was sincere, his tone almost encouraging. "Mu Yunsheng, you have great potential. If, within one stellar year, you not only reach the God Monarch Realm but also master the Perfect Realm, you would truly surprise me. So, to give you greater motivation in your next cycle, to help you unlock your full potential..."

The Manifestation's open palm finally clenched shut, pushing the vortex's inward collapse and annihilation to its absolute limit.

"Please, go die."

"Li Pin!" Mu Yunsheng roared in unwilling fury.

As the annihilation erupted in full force, Mu Yunsheng followed in the footsteps of Huang Ze, Xuan Zhi, and Wu Tian. He was shattered to dust, returning to the cycle of reincarnation.
