At this moment.
Lin Rong was locked in a fierce battle with the Insect Mother.
However, the Insect Mother's power was too immense, and Lin Rong was completely at a disadvantage.
Lin Yu awoke and let out a cold snort, "Sync!"
*Boom!*
Lin Rong's strength immediately multiplied by several hundredfold.
He instantly turned the tide, dominating the fight.
"Kid, how did you suddenly become so strong?"
"Hmph, I'll kill you!"
"Kid, you will die!"
With his strength amplified hundreds of times, Lin Rong could now overpower the Insect Mother.
The Insect Mother seethed with rage, but it was in vain. Lin Rong pummeled it, leaving it covered in wounds.
"Kid, even if I have to expend my origin power, I will kill you today!"
"Origin power, adhere to me, I will shatter your resurrection technique, and then I will see your origin!"
In the Origin Realm, one could perceive a person's origin.
This was an incredibly potent force of karma, and with origin power, one could deduce almost anything.
Soon, Lin Yu appeared before the Insect Mother's eyes.
"So that's how it is!"
In an instant, it understood everything.
"A clone, you are actually a clone, no wonder you are immortal."
"Then I shall kill your main body!"
*Boom!*
A surge of power instantly tore through the void, piercing Lin Yu's chest.
Lin Yu let out a wry smile, "Luckily, I have damage transfer!"
The next moment, he vanished in a flash, unharmed. His clone, however, was annihilated.
The Insect Mother stared in disbelief, "How is this possible!"
"Old hag, you die!" Lin Rong roared in fury and charged forward, detonating himself!
*Boom!*
His self-detonation annihilated a thousandth of the Insect Mother's body.
The Insect Mother was colossal; its explosion could destroy an entire domain, yet its damage was still limited.
Again!
Lin Rong reappeared and detonated himself once more.
At this moment.
Lin Wu said, "Big Brother, it's done!"
"What's the limit?" Lin Yu asked.
Lin Wu chuckled, "I just had an epiphany. The highest is a ten-quadrillion-level homologous fusion technique!"
"Haha, let's see if this fellow dies!"
Sync!
The next moment, all the clones had mastered the new fusion technique.
Fusion!
Lin Rong rejoiced, initiating the fusion. This time, his strength increased by a thousandfold.
"Die!" Lin Rong bellowed, charging forward with his sword.
The Insect Mother, now in the Origin Realm, was incandescent with rage.
Its body was torn into countless fragments. The Insect Ancestors, witnessing this, were petrified.
They hadn't imagined Lin Rong to be so powerful, and the thought of having previously fought him sent shivers of dread down their spines.
"Human, you die!"
"Go to hell!"
The other clones, not to be outdone, joined the fray, attacking the Insect Mother while fending off the surrounding insects.
The Insect Ancestors, seeing this, could no longer stand idly by. They attacked, but were instantly annihilated upon contact.
These Insect Ancestors were too weak.
"Kill!"
Kill!
Kill!
The Insect Mother was overwhelmed, seething with indignation.
Lin Rong bellowed, "Critical Hit!"
*Boom!*
A hundredfold increase in attack power struck the Insect Mother instantly.
Already barely holding on, the Insect Mother's body was shattered by this blow, its torso breaking in half.
The Insect Mother's body was larger than the insect domain itself, and the energy stored within was immense. In a mere breath, it healed completely.
Lin Rong frowned, observing this.
The Insect Mother was too massive. Even with his full strength, he couldn't completely destroy it.
He couldn't achieve a one-hit kill, and the Insect Mother could recover instantaneously.
Troublesome!
Although his power now surpassed the Insect Mother's, he simply couldn't kill it.
Could it be that he had to reach the Origin Realm?
At this moment.
The system's voice echoed in Lin Yu's mind.
"Ding, Host can expend origin power to imbue attacks with characteristics of the Origin Realm, allowing for fatal blows against Origin Realm powerhouses!"
"Excellent!"
When his clones leveled up to 10s, the system had rewarded him with a strand of origin power.
According to the description, origin power was essential for reaching the Origin Realm, and it was likely incredibly rare. But looking at the unkillable Insect Mother, Lin Yu gritted his teeth.
"Whatever, I'll kill the Insect Mother first!"
At this time.
The ongoing battle between Lin Rong and his clones had ravaged the entire insect domain, leaving it in ruins.
This once vast domain, the foremost among all domains, now seemed to be entering its final countdown.
Lin Rong once again shattered a portion of the Insect Mother's body with a single punch.
"Origin Insect Mother, stop struggling, you will die sooner or later!"
The Origin Insect Mother let out a mocking laugh.
"Human, you are indeed powerful, but you cannot kill me. While I don't know why you, a human, can use the homologous fusion technique, I will show you what true homologous fusion is!"
As soon as it spoke.
Radiant light erupted from the Insect Mother's body.
The light was blindingly intense, and Lin Rong instinctively raised his hand to shield his eyes.
"I am the origin of the insect race, and all insects are but my extensions!"
"Come, return to your mother's embrace!"
"Fusion!"
*Boom!*
Instantly, the remaining insects in the entire insect domain transformed into streams of light, merging into the Insect Mother.
Lin Rong was all too familiar with this scene, the entire process of homologous fusion.
He instinctively wanted to interrupt the Insect Mother's casting, but in a moment of distraction, the fusion was complete.
The Insect Mother had transformed completely.
The former Insect Mother was colossal but cumbersome; while difficult to kill, its power couldn't be focused effectively.
But now, the Insect Mother had become a humanoid creature, only about ten meters tall.
It was covered in golden armor, like a general clad in full golden plate.
A slightly hoarse female voice emanated from the Insect Mother's mouth.
"Human, I have integrated the entire insect domain's population. My strength has increased immeasurably. Surrender, and I will spare your life!"
Lin Rong snorted coldly.
How could he fear death?
The Insect Mother chuckled, "I know you are a clone, but I will kill your main body!"
"Seek the origin, die!"
*Boom!*
An inexplicable force suddenly appeared beside Lin Yu.
*Pfft!*
Lin Yu instantly exploded into dust.
However, his damage transfer activated, and a clone replaced his death. The next moment, he was restored to his original state.
The Insect Mother frowned.
"What a terrifying ability, but this power of mine is not so simple!"
"Die!"
*Bang bang bang!!!*
The power, like a persistent leech, unleashed ten thousand attacks in an instant. Lin Yu's tens of thousands of clones died in his stead.
"Not good, this power is too bizarre, I can't escape it!"
Lin Yu wanted to summon more clones to replace the fallen ones but found that the rapid-fire attacks interrupted his casting.
"Damn it!"
He gritted his teeth and yelled at Lin Rong, "Kill it!"
Lin Rong looked helpless and was about to attack when a surge of energy appeared in his hand.
Lin Yu secretly transmitted, "This is origin power, capable of inflicting indelible wounds on those in the Origin Realm. I will seize this chance to use my divine ability: Seal. You must seize the opportunity and deliver a fatal blow!"
The Insect Mother had become far too powerful, and Lin Rong could only barely hold on.
The Insect Mother, unable to kill Lin Yu, also began to attack.
"Infinite Poison Gas!"
*Boom!*
Boundless poisonous gas spread, instantly enveloping Lin Yu's clones.
*Plop plop,* hundreds of millions of clones died immediately.
Lin Rong, while resisting the poisonous gas, moved closer to the Insect Mother.
Suddenly, Lin Yu, enduring immense pain, whispered the word "Seal!"
The next moment, Lin Rong's eyes narrowed, and he thought, "The time is now!"
"Die!"
