Godslayer: You get two at the start, Supreme Divine Ruins.

Chapter 346 Absorbing the Source of the Counter-Type

An Qingyu smiled shyly, gently took Jiang Er's hand, and turned to leave.

However, he suddenly stopped, as if he remembered something, turned around and pointed at Lin Xiao, who was of the Ke type, his tone gentle but with a hint of seriousness: "Brother Xiao, you should take him back first, and then absorb the source after he has adapted to the Ke type power. That would be safer."

Lin Xiao nodded, his eyes filled with gratitude and trust: "Don't worry, I'll handle it."

An Qingyu smiled slightly, took Jiang Er's hand, and turned to leave. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the two of them, lengthening their shadows, as if they were blending into this warm glow, appearing peaceful and beautiful.

Lin Xiao watched them walk away until their figures disappeared from sight before slowly turning his gaze away.

He turned to look at Ke Xilin Xiao, his gaze deep and calm, as if he had already seen through everything. He said softly, "Come back, we still have a lot to do."

Ke Xilin nodded, his figure gradually blurring, eventually transforming into a black light that flowed into his body like water.

In that instant, Cthulhu's terrifying whispers flooded Lin Xiao's mind like a tidal wave, as if countless twisted voices were tearing at his consciousness, trying to pull him into an endless abyss.

Wisps of black smoke began to rise from his body, as if he were being eroded by some invisible force.

However, after absorbing the Heavenly Kingdom's origin and fusing with the Restraining Lin Xiao, Lin Xiao's cultivation level directly climbed to the high-level of the half-step dimensional ascension, just one step away from the peak.

However, this gave Lin Xiao a headache. He had almost completely absorbed the essence of each divine kingdom, yet he still couldn't break through to the dimensional ascension realm.

If he cannot break through, how will he face those Kelvin gods? Not to mention the imminent arrival of Azathoth.

The condensation of the Chaos Green Lotus is only missing the last Qiankun Cauldron, but he has no clue where the Qiankun Cauldron is.

Just then, the system's voice rang in his mind: [Ding, please fuse with the source of the element ...

[Note: The system will disappear upon completion of this task.]

Lin Xiao was stunned, his heart jolted, and he exclaimed, "What did you say? You're going to disappear?"

[Ding, not bad. All good things must come to an end. My mission is complete once the host finishes their last task, and I will no longer be of any use to the host.]

Lin Xiao fell silent, a complex mix of emotions welling up inside him. He had to admit it; without the system, he wouldn't be who he was today. He couldn't help feeling a pang of sadness at the system's departure.

As if sensing Lin Xiao's emotions, the system continued: [Ding, host, don't be sad. The system will accompany you in another way.]

Lin Xiao was taken aback and asked curiously, "How do you intend to appear? Do you have a physical body now?"

[Ding! Once the host regains their memories, they will naturally know everything.]

Lin Xiao nodded thoughtfully, a realization gradually dawning on him. He had just been worrying about the whereabouts of the Qiankun Cauldron, and then the mission arrived, with a reward related to his and Lin Wan'er's memories. It was highly likely that the Qiankun Cauldron was hidden on Lin Wan'er and him, but they hadn't noticed it until now.

……

Lin Xiao stood in the center of the vast summer sky, his gaze deep and solemn. At this moment, he had completely absorbed the origin of the Heavenly Kingdom, and the power that countered Lin Xiao had also been fully integrated.

He held a ball of pitch-black energy in his hand, the very essence of the Kryptonian system, emanating a terrifying aura that sent chills down one's spine.

Cthulhu’s whispers echoed in his mind, as if countless twisted voices were tearing at his consciousness, trying to pull him into an endless abyss.

His "Source" world power surged wildly within him, engaging in a fierce battle against the pollution of the Kryptonian system.

Lin Xiao's brows were furrowed, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his body trembled slightly, as if he would be swallowed up by the pollution of the Kernel at any moment.

"Lin Xiao, can you hold on?" Nix's voice came from the side, her eyes full of worry.

Lin Wan'er and the others are all currently in seclusion. They know that their strength is no longer enough to help Lin Xiao in the upcoming battle, so they are all desperately improving their cultivation levels, hoping to contribute their strength in the final showdown.

Lin Xiao did not answer; his entire focus was on the internal struggle. The terrifying power of the Corruption surged forth like a tidal wave, attempting to erode his "Source" world.

However, the power of the "Source" world is also frantically devouring the Kryptonian pollution, as if trying to completely integrate this power into itself.

"boom!"

Lin Xiao's body jolted violently, and a plume of black smoke surged from within him, transforming into countless twisted tentacles that attempted to devour him completely. However, a resolute glint flashed in Lin Xiao's eyes, and he whispered, "'Origin' World, Devour!"

As he finished speaking, the power of the "Source" world suddenly erupted, transforming into countless golden threads that tightly bound the black tentacles.

The power of the pollution gradually weakened under the devouring of the "Source" world, eventually turning into wisps of black energy that merged into Lin Xiao's body.

Lin Xiao's body gradually calmed down. A trace of fatigue flashed in his eyes, but more so, excitement. He could feel that after absorbing the source of the elemental counter, his cultivation level had directly risen to the peak of the half-step dimensional ascension, just one step away from breaking through.

However, this made Lin Xiao feel uneasy. Although the terrifying power of the Kryptonian pollution had been devoured by the "Source" world, its influence had not completely disappeared.

A surge of black energy would occasionally emerge from Lin Xiao's body, as if a form of corruption was lurking in the shadows, ready to strike at any moment.

"Lin Xiao, are you alright?" Nix's voice came again, her eyes full of concern.

Lin Xiao's expression turned somewhat sinister. He smiled slightly, his voice both wicked and magnetic: "I'm fine. From now on, Great Xia will still need you to protect it for a while. Chaos is badly injured and will not launch a full-scale attack for the time being, but harassment is inevitable."

Nyx nodded, a resolute glint in his eyes: "No matter what happens, we will fight alongside you."

Lin Xiao's gaze swept over the crowd, a hint of gratitude flashing in his eyes. He knew the road ahead was long, but he was not alone.

"boom!"

Just then, the sky suddenly darkened, thick clouds gathered, as if the whole world was shrouded in a heavy shadow. A suffocating sense of oppression came from all directions, as if countless eyes were watching this land from the darkness.

A cold glint flashed in Lin Xiao's eyes as he murmured, "They've arrived so quickly?"

He turned to look at Nyx and said seriously, "Be careful, the Black Goat and the monsters that the Hell God Kingdom has transformed into are coming together."
