Chapter 951: Chapter 951
No sound could travel in the Void of Chaos. However, the spacetime distortion caused by the movement of such a colossus reverberated deep within everyone's inner spirit. The sound of the movement was like the toll of a massive bronze bell, shaking everyone's inner spirit.
Everyone was filled with awe. The Supremes, who were intimidated by Li Pin's earlier feat of wiping out dozens of Supremes in one breath, did not even dare to look at him.
However, with such an enormous body and overwhelming presence, even if they wished to avert their gaze, Li Pin's figure still filled every corner of their vision, unavoidable and inescapable.
Li Pin was like a blazing sun hanging high in the heavens, and they were like mortals living under its scorching light. No matter where they fled, they could not escape its influence.
Li Pin's true body was now technically gone, leaving only his avatar behind.
Before leaving, Li Pin had strengthened his avatar further, ensuring absolute stability. With this avatar alone, he could suppress all dissent within the starry cosmos.
"Next, we will resolve the Astral World's issue," said Li Pin's avatar.
Supreme Genesis, Supreme Primordial, and the others were taken aback.
Then, they grasped his meaning.
Not long ago, Li Pin had them convene the Myriad Races Supreme Council precisely to resolve the Astral World issue. However, he soon entered seclusion to address an issue with his cultivation. When Creator Miao Ya and others later disrupted the meeting, the matter remained unresolved.
While the Supremes felt dazed, they also understood something.
They spoke one after another.
"The longer the Astral World's problem persists, the more Astral Gods will fall. His Majesty Origin truly cares for all living beings."
"Though the Eternal Oblivion Disaster has lasted just over a hundred stellar years, because its intensity far exceeded the original estimate, the number of Astral Gods has still declined exponentially, greatly alleviating the burden of the Astral World. It is time to bring this to a close."
"Without delay, we shall summon the other Supremes and revise the Astral World's laws."
Supreme Primordial turned his gaze toward Li Pin's avatar. "Your Majesty Origin, regarding the revision of the Astral World's laws, do you have any additional suggestions?"
"I will handle it," said Li Pin.

"I will notify the major races to gather all the Law Divine Equipment left over from the ancient Astral World era and bring them to the Human Race." Supreme Primordial spoke with a slight smile. "I imagine the other Supremes will not refuse."
Li Pin nodded. The reason the Supremes had the confidence and courage to change the Astral World's laws was precisely because of the Law Divine Equipment left from the ancient Astral World era.
In the ancient era, each of these divine equipment possessed earth-shaking, vast power. However, after that great calamity struck the ancient Astral World, these divine equipment had been severely damaged, reduced to mere shadows of their former glory.
However, their inherent uniqueness still allowed them to modify the Astral World's laws and cement the Supreme status of the Nine Great Supreme Races.
While Li Pin's avatar and the Supremes busied themselves with revising the Astral World's laws, Li Pin's true body had already left the starry cosmos, headed into the Void of Chaos.
Creator Li and the others had previously gleaned the movement patterns of that terrifying existence that had traced them here. They more or less knew the general area where it was active. But to pinpoint its exact location would still take some time.
Fortunately, the Void of Chaos was virtually empty. Li Pin could wander, search for that terrifying existence, ponder the changes within him, and think about his future path.
Time flowed by. In the blink of an eye, a century had passed.
A hundred years was hardly a long time for Astral Gods, much less the current Li Pin.
Even after a hundred years of contemplation, Li Pin hadn't found a way to reattain the Path to Eternity after the Eternal had cut it off.
Suddenly, within his perception, a presence appeared, imbued with the flow of Existence.
The power of law intertwined, forming what seemed like a long spear spanning tens of millions of light-years, crashing into his perception and aiming at his actual body.
This spear wasn't exactly aimed at him. If he didn't dodge it, it would only skim past him. However, the resulting ripples could still affect him greatly.
Li Pin was slightly surprised. "Am I under attack?"
But if this was an attack, the aim was terribly off.
Still, he did not ignore it. Countless planets and stars within him completed material transformations, and a radiant river of stars, no less magnificent than the long spear itself, erupted from his true body to collide with the incoming long spear.
Energy collided with energy, laws overlapped with laws.
At that moment, the aura of Existence exploded to its extreme within the Void of Chaos.
The ripples even spread into deeper realms, seemingly proclaiming his Existence to all life within the Void of Chaos.
Yes, in a high-profile manner.
Li Pin's expression turned odd. He had not expected that even in the Void of Chaos, such a massive stir could occur from a clash.
"That direction... is it the mysterious, powerful being that has been following the traces left by the Ancient Creators? But this is far too fast. Miao Ya and the others said it would take thousands or even tens of thousands of years for that mysterious existence to catch up.... But we're only a hundred stellar years away from the starry cosmos."
For a Liberator, this distance was no different from being at their "doorstep."
Such a massive miscalculation could only mean one thing—they had vastly underestimated that Liberator's speed. Or rather, they judged that being's burst speed using their own travel speed.
"That direction then?"
Li Pin did not retreat. He moved swiftly toward the direction from which the attack had come.
He had no opponent in the starry cosmos anymore.
But if this is a Liberator....
"To think I'd encounter another Liberator right after breaking through to the Liberation Realm.... Although this Liberator doesn't seem friendly, acquiring information does not require friendly debate. A battle can yield the same effect."
A sharp light flickered in Li Pin's eyes.
His enormous form moved, heading straight for the Liberator.
However, his advance lasted only briefly before an energy torrent far stronger than the previous longspear tore through the void toward him.
Unlike the last longspear, which only brushed past him, this strike had precisely locked onto his location. Its speed was so immense that even someone with a body spanning tens of billions of light-years could not evade it.
Li Pin frowned. "Such a method..."
He had no choice but to conjure another dazzling river of stars to continue intercepting the longspear.
As the aura of Existence surged, the strike failed to affect Li Pin once more.
However, these two attacks were only the beginning. As time passed, a third and then a fourth attack, each far more powerful than the last, though separated by stellar years.
As Li Pin pursued the attacker, the opponent seemed to shift positions. The attacks were now coming from other directions. Yet, their accuracy remained nearly perfect.
Like a living target, he was struck again and again, yet no matter how he pursued, he couldn't even catch the shadow of his opponent.
"Is there any meaning to this?" Li Pin frowned. "Such attacks... what meaning do they hold against someone like me, who has comprehended the constant form and can rapidly restore my body through distorting transcendent spacetime?"
Endless streams of light surged from his true body. Vast quantities of matter and energy manifested from nothing, rapidly forming and growing under the amplification of spacetime.
The speed far exceeded the growth of his body when he had just achieved Liberation level—not just by a little, but by an overwhelming margin.
Even though he had expended much of his body blocking the previous waves of attacks, the acceleration of matter and energy conversion granted by the power of time rapidly restored the lost mass.
The entity before him, relying on speed and concealment within the Void of Chaos, attacked again.
Li Pin's heart stirred. "Perhaps..."
Could... its regenerative ability not have reached my level yet?
But that shouldn't be the case. According to Miao Ya and the others' description of that Liberator, his internal structure should make it easier for him to recover energy.
If so, why was it using such a useless method of attack?
Li Pin's brow furrowed. "Is it a probe?"
At that moment, Li Pin saw something.
He didn't merely perceive it this time—he had actually seen it.
The moment he saw it, the bead smashed into him, plunging rapidly toward his core.
It was imperceptible and almost undetectable.
Li Pin quickly thought of the primary material of a Supreme divine weapon. "Indestructible Matter?"
His thoughts stirred, and vast amounts of energy were released through spacetime acceleration, forming a brilliance so intense it was nearly blinding, covering the bead made from Indestructible Matter.
He had just released energy powerful enough to erase any Creator, yet the bead was untouched.
"What is this? Trying to smash me with Indestructible Matter? This is far too extravagant."
Li Pin could not wrap his head around it.
But then, as he tried to use matter-energy conversion to repair the wounds made by the Indestructible Matter, his expression shifted.
There was a disturbance.
The operation of the laws within was being disrupted near the Indestructible Matter. This disruption affected the entire cyclical system of laws within him.
Right now, there was only a small amount, so the effect was minor. But as more Indestructible Matter entered his body, the operation of his laws would be broken.
At that point, his entire true body... would completely collapse.
