Chapter 420: Chapter 420 True Extreme Slaying Evil Divine Light
Lin Shen's first sensation was one of crowding, a feeling that left him somewhat suffocated; he felt as if he had arrived in an exceptionally crowded world, as though his surroundings were filled with items of every hue that seemed like light yet also not.
Within this sensation, Lin Shen's vision gradually receded, making those crowded things before his eyes appear more and more distant.
The once immensely crowded feeling slowly faded, and he himself became a streak of light, as did the crowded things around him, resembling meteor-like lights, uniformly shuttling through the starry sky.
The entire universe seemed filled with such lights, which gathered together, initially almost airtight.
However, as Lin Shen's vision drifted further away, the other lights gradually distanced themselves from him, the gaps between them widening increasingly, sprawling like meteor showers, endlessly traversing the universe.
This distance kept on expanding, causing Lin Shen, who had felt cramped and choked, to now feel as if it were all too vast. Everything was moving away from him, becoming unreachable, as distant as if there were an entire universe between them.
Suddenly, nebulae appeared in Lin Shen's field of view, countless streams of light like his own descending into the nebulae like a rain of meteors.
As one of these lights, Lin Shen also fell toward the nebula, and as countless lights like his surged toward it, the nebula also magnified continuously in his view.
What seemed an intensely dense nebula became more and more loose as they drew close, with gaps emerging that grew increasingly larger.
Once a certain distance was reached, Lin Shen realized that the seemingly wispy nebula was actually made up of many stars. As he drew closer, the distance between these stars widened ever more.
At first, he could still see the other stars, but gradually, Lin Shen could only see some stars in front of him, then just a few, and finally only one, which became too distant to reach, even invisible to the naked eye.
The star magnified in Lin Shen's vision, and then he saw galaxies, and as the galaxies enlarged, he saw individual stars, which gradually became clearer, enough to discern the shapes of the planets.
With the planets growing larger, he could see the mountains and rivers on their surfaces.
The mountains and rivers too became gradually larger in Lin Shen's eyes, and he saw a fish leap out of the water.
The light that Lin Shen had become was heading straight for that jumping fish, surrounded by many similar streams of light, close and yet far, like a ubiquitous meteor shower, all converging on the fish.
As the streams of light drew closer, Lin Shen saw the scales on the fish, and gradually the gaps between the scales, his perspective magnifying again and again.
Eventually, Lin Shen could no longer see the fish or its scales; all that remained in his vision was an assortment of not-so-tightly arranged matter.
And this loosely arranged matter kept magnifying in Lin Shen's eyes, continuously enlarging.
Thus, Lin Shen saw a scene similar to the one he'd seen with the nebula before, what should have been a consistent fish body became, upon entering the micro world, a myriad of bizarre nebulae.
The gaps between the nebulae kept widening, and then the same process repeated itself.
All of a sudden, Lin Shen realized that despite having flown like a meteor for so long, he had not been able to touch anything at all, not even a fish.
The fish was not an illusion; it was a tangible entity. The reason he could not touch it was because the light he had become was far too small, so tiny that the fish appeared before him just like a vast nebula in the empty universe, filled with enormous gaps.
To him, these gaps seemed manifold times larger than an ocean; he simply could not touch anything at all.
The perspective suddenly withdrew, and Lin Shen saw countless light streams like his own passing through the body of the fish without inflicting any harm.
Lin Shen saw countless lights passing through trees, rivers, rocks, the earth, traversing the entire planet, continuing toward the distant endless space, as if there would never be an end, nor would they encounter anything.
Just when Lin Shen thought the streak of light he had become would also fly infinitely, he suddenly felt a throbbing within his body.
This streak of light, just as it was about to pass through the body of the fish, corrected its own direction, heading toward a target.
That target seemed like a planet, yet also seemed like just a point.
In the instant that the light passed through that point, Lin Shen felt the meaning of life's existence; he finally felt the sensation of materials making contact, no longer feeling the emptiness of having nowhere to land, no longer feeling that everything was in vain.
Boom!
The point was directly pierced by the light transformed from Lin Shen, exploding like a firework.
Then, Lin Shen saw a terrifying scene: the explosion from that point triggered a chain reaction in the nearby points, and in an instant, explosions filled the entire world.
Perhaps because of the change in the streak of light Lin Shen had become, those lights that should have passed through the body of the fish, through the planets, also underwent a change, hitting those points with unbelievable precision inside the starry void, like finding a needle in a haystack.
The body of the fish exploded like a nuclear bomb, forests, rocks, animals, even water vapor, all underwent a huge explosion after being pierced by the light streams.
In just an instant, the entire planet was set off.
Lin Shen's view didn't zoom out further; countless planets under the assault of the celestial light streams, experienced inconceivable massive explosions.
The entire nebula was destroyed by the inexhaustible light piercing the universe, leaving nothing but the nebula engulfed by the Light Explosion in front of Lin Shen's eyes, with nothing but light left in his sight.
It was only then that Lin Shen came back to his senses, the vision of the nebula exploding disappeared, and he was still in that stone cavern, with no stellar explosions at all.
Dao seemed to have regained his senses even earlier, appearing delirious as he frantically hammered the red-hot materials on the workbench.
Lin Shen wanted to help but was pushed away by the crazed-looking Dao.
"Go... put the materials into the furnace... the more the better... the more the better..." Dao shouted loudly, his face distorted and eyes bloodshot, looking more terrifying than any ghastly spirit.
Lin Shen hurriedly picked up the materials piled on the ground and threw them into the furnace.
Dao completely ignored him, continuing to hammer on his own, repeatedly withdrawing the materials and folding them together.
Although the materials seemed like a large pile, they became smaller and redder as Dao repeatedly folded them.
The reddish patterns on it had become so numerous that Lin Shen could no longer discern them as patterns; the whole material looked as if it had turned to blood.
