218. The second collapse of the Douluo plane? Lin Yi dominantly saves the day! [First Update]_1

Lin Yi encountered for the first time a reward that could only be used for one second, and he was taken aback.

It was a Golden Junior level reward, yet it could only be used for one second, which was enough to demonstrate the level of power and prestige of this reward.

Lin Yi specially checked the description to ensure it was the Pangu Banner he remembered.

After reading every word meticulously, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

[Pangu Banner: One of the three great innate treasures, transformed from the edge of the Pangu Axe, it possesses the strongest attack power among them, capable of tearing apart the primordial realm and shattering chaos.]

That's right, it was this thing!

However, the setup of this reward was quite interesting; Lin Yi couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, thinking the system was indeed scheming.

Such a formidable treasure could only be used for one second, which essentially meant it was a one-time use.

Would Qian Renxue use it?

She definitely would not.

Therefore, even if this reward was attained, it was as good as non-existent. Lin Yi surmised that Thousand Waves probably wouldn't even let Qian Renxue keep it by herself.

But this turned out to be a boon for Lin Yi... because a one-second outburst turned into one hour. How many times was that?

3,600 times.

Lin Yi's eyebrows involuntarily raised.

Looking at the expectant gazes from the grandfather and grandson, he cleared his throat and said, "Damage 517648, Golden Junior, your reward is the time-limited treasure Pangu Banner. This item has an extremely strong attack power and is a rare treasure."

"Extremely strong attack power... how strong?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi chuckled lightly but did not answer immediately.

Thousand Waves curiously asked, "Is this a time-limited reward? How long is the usage limit?"

"One second."

Lin Yi stated calmly.

"Hiss—"

The grandfather and grandson on the platform widened their eyes and gasped in shock.

"One second?!!"

At this moment, everyone who heard about this time restriction couldn't help but exclaim.

Indeed, just hearing Lin Yi say this thing was powerful didn't really resonate with everyone, but to say a Golden Level reward had only one second of usage right, that definitely made it quite vivid!

"But doesn't that mean it can only be used once?"

Thousand Waves asked with some confusion.

"If you cast fast enough, you might have the opportunity to use it several times in one second... However, I can responsibly tell you, no one can speed up the casting, so the reward can at most be used once."

Listening to his words was like hearing a verdict... Qian Renxue twitched the corner of her mouth.

Lin Yi flicked the Golden Light Sphere towards Qian Renxue.

The Golden Light Sphere made a "whoosh" sound in mid-air, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a red banner fluttering in the wind. The banner was adorned with elegant and fierce runes resembling dragons and snakes, while the edges looked like ascending red flames. The entire banner was very imposing and majestic.

Qian Renxue hurriedly grabbed the short handle at the bottom. She smiled as she examined the treasure in her hand, but at this moment, the Pangu Banner emitted an aura of red, causing the ground to tremble and the sky to grow dark, as if the end of the world had come!

"What's happening?! What's going on?!"

[Warning, detection of a Fifth Level Plane treasure existing within a First-level Douluo Plane, posing a risk of collapse to the said First-level Plane!]

Lin Yi's expression turned frosty: "Don't give me warnings, resolve the risk if there's any."

If the Great Sage Equal to Heaven's Permanent Second Form might cause the Douluo plane to collapse, I can barely accept it, but the Pangu Banner, which can only be used for one second, keeps threatening me with this collapse and that collapse, Lin Yi couldn't tolerate it.

Issuing such an impressive reward and then telling people they can't use it, where does this put my credibility as Lin somebody?

Lin Yi was clear about the System's positioning.

As long as he, the host, remained in this plane for one more second, the System would have to consider the host's life safety.

Because in the System's perception, Lin Yi's life safety has always been of utmost importance.

Therefore, Lin Yi's words carried considerable weight with the System.

The System's response was quick.

[Solving… Breath Concealment Technique (System Technology) has been sent to the System Space. Please host apply a layer of breath disguise to the Pangu Banner to deceive the Douluo plane!]

Huh? Deceive? What kind of operation is this?

While puzzled, Lin Yi stood up, deciding to resolve the immediate crisis first.

The scene was now one of earth-shaking upheaval, cracks appearing on the ground and tiles continuously falling from both sides of the street. Soul Masters were panic-stricken, each unleashing their Martial Soul in defense, while the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Master Academy had also activated their soul guide-linked defense formations.

Qian Renxue, guarded by Thousand Waves on the stage, was in a state of panic when she suddenly saw Lin Yi, like a savior, walking over in this direction.

"Senior, what on earth is happening?!"

Lin Yi did not speak; he quickly arrived in front of Qian Renxue, raised his right hand, and a dazzling colorful light mass shone forth from his sword finger, the bright light group like the only dawn in the midst of gunpowder smoke.

With a light touch of his sword finger on the Pangu Banner, a layer of colorful halo surfaced on it. The vibration of the ground ceased instantly, and tranquility returned to the scene in a moment.

Everyone, with dirt-covered faces, watched the scene on the platform; they had all noticed what had just happened there.

Gu Yuena wiped away the dust that fell on her fair face and asked Lin Yi, "What happened?"

The chat group also exploded.

Member Three: ?

Number Four: ?

Number Five: ?

Member Three: I almost died!!

Number Five: Just now there was a 500-meter-high wave at sea, do you believe it?

Number Four: I'm at the edge of the far northern lands and I saw the snow mountains of my hometown avalanche again! Lin Yi! I'm going to chop you up!

…

The chat group began to be crazily flooded with questions from these three members, with most asking what had happened.

Lin Yi, moving neither fast nor slow, reached out and pinched a golden feather from Qian Renxue's hair.

He said calmly,

"This treasure comes from a space beyond the four planes of Soul Land. The Douluo plane can't bear the pressure and faces collapse. But the problem has been resolved by me, there's no need to worry."

After finishing, Lin Yi glanced at Qian Renxue and casually tossed the golden feather into mid-air, then returned to his own place.

Qian Renxue, feeling bewildered, touched her head and turned to whisper to Thousand Waves, "Is this your feather or mine?"

"How would I have the energy to pay attention to that..."

"…"

Lin Yi looked at them and said, "All right, let's continue with the second attack."

He had just received an official explanation from the System. The reason for pretending to deceive Soul Land was because the plane's collapse did not come from a high-level plane's pressure on a low-level plane.

Instead, the lower plane sensed the higher plane's aura, induced a fear response, and such collapse phenomena were actually the Douluo plane's self-defense mechanisms.

As long as the high-level plane's aura was concealed, fooling the lower plane, such a collapse would naturally cease to exist.

Actually, it made a lot of sense, similar to the body's immune response, with antigens and antibodies being a comparable analogy.

If this were the case, Lin Yi knew that he could fuse the Great Sage Equal to Heaven's second form.

…

Thousand Waves and Qian Renxue exchanged glances and began preparing for the second attack.

This time it was Qian Renxue who extended a skill from the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda backwards.

Second Soul Skill + Martial Soul True Body + Third Soul Skill Soul Power Amplification.
