The spikes were like a magic spell that had been magnified countless times. The spikes were like the fangs of a giant beast, chasing after Lin Li's figure and stabbing him continuously. Lin Li, on the other hand, became a sparrow shuttling through the forest, casting magic spells while avoiding the terrifying spikes of the mountains.
The battle with the Ancient God of Water proved that the Mount Tai Mageweath was very effective in suppressing the ancient gods. However, Lin Li did not immediately use the Mount Tai Mageweath when facing the Ancient God of Earth. Instead, he tried his best to deal with the other party, and even put himself in a very dangerous situation.
It was not that Lin Li was torturing himself, but rather that he did not want to easily give up such an opportunity to familiarize himself with the power of the ancient gods. Rather than saying that it was a test left behind by Geresco, it was actually more of a learning opportunity to learn how to fight against the gods. Where else in this world could one have such an opportunity to fight against an ancient god? What kind of person could suppress the power of an ancient god to such an extent and use it as a sparring partner for a kid in the Sanctuary-realm?
The ancient gods were very powerful. Even if most of their power was suppressed, they were still not something that Lin Li could easily defeat. However, if Lin Li used the Mount Tai Mageweath all the way, it would probably be difficult for him to gain much from this test. Besides, the Mount Tai Mageweath was definitely not effective. If he were to encounter a real god in the future, the effect of the Mount Tai Mageweath would probably be limited. By then, it would be too late for regrets.
Although Lin Li could still obtain a ball of origin power after suppressing the ancient god, he could gain a more thorough understanding of the Origin Laws from it. However, it was just like obtaining a book. He could flip through the pages and learn the knowledge inside, but it did not mean that he knew how to use the knowledge. Only through the battle with the ancient god could he clearly see how the ancient god used the origin power. That was also very important to the knowledge he obtained from the fusion.
At this moment, seeing that the spikes in the sky could not catch Lin Li, the worm, the Ancient God of Earth clearly lost his patience, and punched the sky fiercely. The punch looked ordinary, but the sky suddenly changed as the punch was thrown.
The originally blue sky turned into the same color as the earth in the blink of an eye, as if the entire earth was hanging upside down in the sky. Lin Li flew in the air, and if he were to look at the top of his head, he would feel like he was standing upside down. Just like the ground beneath their feet, the land above their heads was also constantly growing into majestic mountain ranges. Many sword-like mountain peaks were also chasing after them.
This time, Lin Li had to face attacks from all directions, and it would not be easy for him to dodge them with agility. Besides, the intersecting peaks formed a cage that reduced Lin Li's range of movement.
Such an attack was actually not that terrifying to Lin Li. Besides, if it weren't for the terrifying gravitational force, even ordinary Sanctuary powerhouses might not be in much danger. That made Lin Li feel that the Ancient God of Earth seemed to be playing with him like a cat catching a mouse. He was simply treating him as a plaything.
"Ant, hand over the thing in your hand, and I will grant you the glory of becoming my follower!"
All of a sudden, a deep voice sounded in Lin Li's mind. The voice naturally came from the Ancient God of Earth. Apart from Lin Li and the Ancient God of Earth, there was no one else there. That also made Lin Li understand that the Ancient God of Earth was coveting the thing in his hand.
Although the Ancient God of Earth did not say it clearly, Lin Li guessed that what the Ancient God of Earth wanted was the debris of the stars, Rebirth, which contained pure Earth Laws.
At this moment, the power that the Ancient God of Earth possessed was only a small part of his body, and he could barely maintain the strength of a low-level deity. Hence, there was naturally no way for him to escape the confinement. If the Ancient God of Earth could obtain the debris of the stars, Rebirth, he would be able to recover at least half of his strength even if he could not recover to his peak.
Without the suppression of the Divine Smith's mageweath for the time being, the Ancient God of Earth might be able to take the opportunity to escape after obtaining the power of the debris of the stars, Rebirth, and restore most of his strength. No one was willing to be imprisoned here forever, let alone the ancient god who had once reigned supreme over the gods.
"If you want it, defeat me and get it yourself!" What a joke. How could Lin Li give something as important as the debris of the stars to the Ancient God of Earth? The battle between him and the ancient god was a test that Geresco had left behind. Even if the ancient god was unwilling to fight, he had to force the other party to fight him instead of finding ways to avoid the battle.
If he handed over his debris of the stars to the other party, he would get the benefit of becoming the other party's slave! Lin Li was not that despicable. It seemed that the Ancient God of Earth had been suppressed for too long, and even his brain had turned into stone.
Lin Li's answer undoubtedly aroused the anger of the ancient God of Earth. As a powerful ancient god, even their servants were usually only qualified to be a true god. Now, Lin Li was just an ant-like mortal, and yet he actually dared to say such arrogant words to him. That was simply the greatest insult to the ancient gods.
"In that case, die, ant!" The Ancient God of Earth let out an angry roar, and mountains immediately appeared in the sky and the ground, biting towards Lin Li like the sharp teeth of a giant man-eating beast.
Lin Li had long expected the reaction of the Ancient God of Earth. The Helios' Scepter flashed, and the Light and Darkness Swords that were 100 meters long appeared around his body, slicing towards the mountains like a windmill. All of a sudden, the entire space was shrouded in continuous roars, and the Light and Darkness Swords and the sword-like mountains collided continuously. It was as if Lin Li was fighting with the Ancient God of Earth.
However, the means of the Ancient God of Earth were obviously not limited to that. Magic that contained the Laws of the Earth followed closely behind and blasted towards Lin Li like a storm. Earth-elemental magic was not just capable of flying sand and rolling stones, especially when it was cast by the Ancient God of Earth. The use of the Laws of the Earth was superb. The Ancient God of Earth could even use the Laws of the Earth to cast magic that was similar to other Laws, such as thunderbolts, flames, storms, and gales. Each of them had the power to destroy heaven and earth.
Lin Li's Domain World fluctuated, and the hundreds of Light and Darkness Swords danced around him, constantly blocking the attacks from all directions. However, Lin Li's strength was much weaker than that of the Ancient God of Earth, after all. In the beginning, he could still use a Light and Darkness Sword to offset an attack, but gradually, he had to put in more effort.
When a huge mountain that looked like a city in the sky smashed towards Lin Li, dozens of Light and Darkness Swords immediately flew out of the defensive circle and slashed at the mountain. If it had been outside, Lin Li would have been able to split it into pieces even if it was 10 times larger, let alone a mountain like this. However, the mountain that contained the Laws of the Earth, or rather, was condensed purely from the Laws of the Earth. How could it be that easy to deal with?
The 100-meter-long Light and Darkness Swords blasted at the flying mountain with the sound of explosions in the air. However, the collision between the Light and Darkness Swords and the mountain did not cause the slightest explosion. Instead, it was as if they had slashed at a desert, and sank right into it. Immediately afterwards, the mental connection between Lin Li and the Light and Darkness Swords was cut off.
However, Lin Li did not panic. If it were an ordinary magic spell, the magic spell would definitely dissipate after losing the mental connection. However, the Light and Darkness Swords were made up of the two extreme forces of light and darkness. Without the restraint of Lin Li's mental strength, the two opposing forces erupted due to the conflict.
Indeed, at the next moment when Lin Li's mental connection was cut off, a low explosion sounded from the huge mountain. From the looks of it, one could even see huge bumps appearing on the mountain peaks, like boiling water bubbles.
Unfortunately, that was all. Although the power that erupted from the Light and Darkness Swords was terrifying, it was not enough to make the mountain disintegrate. The huge mountain was still falling at the speed of a meteor, smashing towards Lin Li with a deafening roar.
If it had been an ordinary mountain, Lin Li would not have suffered much damage even if he had been hit by the powerful defensive power of the Domain World. However, this mountain was completely made up of the Laws of the Earth. The mountain was just a form, but it was essentially an attack of the Laws of the Earth. Hence, Lin Li did not dare to underestimate it at all.
Lin Li did not use the Void of the Stars again, because he knew that it would not have much effect on the ancient gods. As the light on the Helios' Scepter flickered, an indistinct spear of light suddenly appeared in Lin Li's Domain World. It was none other than Nothingness, one of the seven pieces of the debris of the stars.
Lin Li took out the Reincarnation Crossbow, and the Nothingness Spear transformed into an arrow that was placed on it. Immediately afterwards, he pulled the trigger and shot it out. The debris of the stars, Nothingness, had the most peculiar power among the seven pieces of the debris of the stars. It contained the Laws of Space and Time, and was also the one that Lin Li had the least mastery of. However, the power of Nothingness could not be doubted. Back when he killed the Dragon of Destruction in the Endless World, the power of Nothingness played a crucial role.
After Nothingness was shot out, it drew an unpredictable ray of light in the space, and shot straight into the mountain. Next, there seemed to be a huge vortex that appeared in the center of the huge mountain, continuously devouring the surrounding rocks. In the blink of an eye, the mountain that was even larger than the Sky Castle disappeared without a trace in midair, leaving behind only a faint vortex that was about to disappear.
Clearly, the ancient God of Earth did not expect Lin Li to have so many good things, and was stunned for a moment by the change. However, to him, although such power was peculiar, it was far from being able to defeat him. Hence, he was just surprised.
The ancient God of Earth pointed his finger, and more than 10 mountain peaks immediately floated up again, surrounding Lin Li in the center. They continuously rotated, and slammed towards Lin Li one by one. At the same time, the inverted image of the earth above his head also pressed downwards at the same time. The sky and the earth were like two huge millstones that were about to crush Lin Li.
After a moment of fighting, Lin Li finally couldn't hold on anymore. Even though the Ancient God's power was greatly suppressed, there was still a huge gap between the two of them when he fought against a powerful Ancient God with the strength of a high-level Sanctuary. It was already something to be proud of that Lin Li didn't get killed by the ancient God of Earth instantly.
Of course, although there wasn't much time in the battle, Lin Li had a good understanding of the use of the Earth Laws by the ancient God of Earth. He couldn't say that he could compare to the ancient God of Earth, but it seemed to have opened a door for him, and the enlightenment he gained was difficult to measure.
Feeling that he could no longer hold on, Lin Li didn't waste any more time, and reached out to draw the Mount Tai Mageweath. However, this time, there were some changes to the Mount Tai Mageweath. Lin Li had made those changes based on the characteristics of the ancient God of Earth. In fact, it was fortunate that Lin Li had a better understanding of the ancient God of Earth through this battle. Otherwise, he might not have been able to suppress the ancient God of Earth if he still used the original Mount Tai Mageweath.
Lin Li drew the Mount Tai Mageweath again. Although there were many activations, it didn't affect Lin Li's drawing speed. The seven pieces of the debris of the stars were integrated into the Domain World again to enhance the defensive power of the Domain World. Next, he quickly began to draw a new Mount Tai Mageweath while dealing with the storm-like attacks of the ancient God of Earth.
Due to the experience of the battle with the ancient God of Water, Lin Li managed to get through it safely even though he was still forced into a rather disheveled state. Finally, when the Domain World was about to collapse, the Mount Tai Mageweath in front of Lin Li was completed. As Lin Li's arm fell, the formed Mount Tai Mageweath shone brightly and flew out of the Domain World. The light almost dyed the entire space gold.
Under the suppression of the Mount Tai Mageweath, the ground above and below him melted rapidly like snow under the sun, revealing the azure sky above his head and the blue sea beneath his feet. All the power of the Earth Laws was forced back into the ancient God of Earth's body by the Mount Tai Mageweath, and the body of the ancient God that looked like a Titan also began to collapse layer by layer.
Feeling the suppression, the ancient God of Earth roared indignantly, and continuously bombarded the surroundings with his arms as if he wanted to blast the pressure away. However, his attacks seemed to have fallen into thin air as they couldn't touch the power of the Mount Tai Mageweath at all.
Lin Li stood quietly in mid-air and watched as the Mount Tai Mageweath patterns and runes began to flash on the body of the Ancient God of Earth. He watched as the huge body gradually shrank and turned into a ball of earthy yellow light.
