Chapter 520 Turned to Ash with a Single Finger
"The sky is vast... the field is boundless... my life has been wildly unrestrained..." the Elephant Man roared with all his might.
Amidst billions of Ascenders, his voice stood out as particularly discordant.
Lin Shen sighed inwardly, "Am I really such a poor character that only this honest man is willing to speak out for me?"
"Don't waste any more time..." Wu Mian said in a cold voice.
Before Wu Mian could finish speaking, voices from all around rose up, thunderous and overwhelming, drowning out his remaining words.

"The sky is vast... the field is boundless... my life has been wildly unrestrained..." countless voices joined in with the Elephant Man's bellowing, growing louder and more numerous with each repetition.
A surge of power welled up inside Lin Shen's body, instantly filling him from head to toe.
The power of the War Song was not like the Sacrificial Halo, which could directly enhance his attributes.
The War Song was more like an augmenting skill such as the Phoenix Mystique, capable of magnifying his attributes.
However, the War Song didn't consistently double his attributes. When there were few people, the enhancement of the War Song might be negligible, unless, like Wei Wufu with the Qixin Wooden Fish, it was combined with special musical accompaniment, which was significantly stronger than just singing.
But once the number of singers increased, even without special musical instruments, the magnifying effect that could be produced would far surpass that of ordinary attribute-doubling skills.
And now, with Ascenders singing the War Song by the billions, Lin Shen himself didn't know just how many times his attributes could be multiplied.
All the powerful beings of various races, including Wu Mian, never expected that at such a time, so many Ascenders would be willing to lend their voices to Lin Shen, some of whom were even from major clans.
In reality, they were all mistaken. Even though Wu Mian pointed out that Lin Shen was the brother of the Undefeated King, those who had followed Lin Shen were well aware of the truth.
Initially, Lin Shen indeed took some people's points, but that was only a few. Moreover, those who had been robbed by him and later joined his team indeed received points, far more than what had been taken from them.
Later, as Lin Shen led his team sweeping through the battlefield, merging numerous teams, he never asked for a single point from them, nor did he ever let them pay anything. Instead, he protected their lives and points.
Was it their concern whether Lin Shen was the brother of the Undefeated King?n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The Undefeated King harmed those top-tier Ascenders and never troubled them. Whether or not Lin Shen was the brother of the Undefeated King, they simply didn't care.
To say that Lin Shen sparked warfare, causing countless deaths and injuries among races, was even more absurd. They just felt protected by him. Without Lin Shen, they would have been at the mercy of those elite Ascender geniuses from strong races, so how could they have accrued so many points now, without anyone daring to rob them?
Compared to Wu Mian, they naturally leaned more towards Lin Shen.
What source of calamity? He was clearly their protector.
After all, Lin Shen didn't need them to fight; they only had to contribute their War Song. What was there to be afraid of? With so many people singing the War Song together, what could Wu Mian do to them?
Lin Shen felt his body being bolstered by a mysterious force, feeling his scalp tingle, his blood rushing to the crown of his head, and goosebumps covering his skin.
"Wu Mian, time to hit the road." Taking advantage of the unceasing War Song, Lin Shen's figure suddenly sprang into action.
Originally, he was prepared to use Finger Sand, but now there were too many people belting out the War Song. The enhancement was too strong, and Lin Shen feared that with just one finger, he wouldn't just kill Wu Mian but also pierce through the planet.
As Lin Shen moved, he suddenly experienced a peculiar sensation.
His speed was so fast that everything around him seemed to slow down, even the sound of the War Song, as if it were being played in slow motion.
And in the eyes of others, Lin Shen's movements did not seem very fast, but they gave them a sensation of being unable to move themselves.
Wu Mian saw Lin Shen approaching but, no matter what, couldn't move an inch.
This wasn't to say that they were truly immobilized, but rather their bodily reactions couldn't keep up with their thoughts, which is why they felt this way.
Lin Shen suddenly had a moment of realization, understanding why, when he watched that half-human, half-metal monster, every action seemed so slow, yet he couldn't dodge at all.
It wasn't that the monster was slow; it was that he was too fast, so fast that it caused a disconnect between the observers' thoughts and their bodily reactions.
Everyone watched as Lin Shen's finger pressed down on the Chaos God Bell outside Wu Mian's body, watching the so-called number one defensive Life Base, the Chaos God Bell, directly explode into dust under his fingertip.
They watched Lin Shen's finger touch Wu Mian's skull, watched as Wu Mian's carapace and body also burst into dust together.
In an instant, Wu Mian and the Chaos God Bell turned to ashes and vanished without a trace.
The War Song suddenly stopped, and everyone fell silent, staring blankly at Lin Shen hovering in the air.
That was where Wu Mian should have been, but now there wasn't even dust left of him, directly obliterated by a single finger without a trace remaining.
Fear spread among everyone's hearts; that was Wu Mian, hailed as the strongest defense of his tier, yet he was reduced to ash by a single finger. What a terrifying strength that was.
Tia's eyes widened, and her mouth formed an O shape.
Catherine couldn't maintain her composure any longer, her eyes full of shock.
The Heavenly Emperor was silent, and An Rong's face had lost all color.
Even Tian Buluo and Di Esi, who had stopped their battle, looked at Lin Shen with strange expressions.
That finger seemed to have silenced the entire universe for a second.
"Damn, Wu Mian was turned to ash by a single finger!"
"My god, what kind of finger skill is that? It's truly divine!"
"This Lin Shen, he seems even fiercer than his brother, the Undefeated King."
"..."
Above the battlefield, everyone looked at Lin Shen with complicated expressions, their eyes not so much seeing a person as they were witnessing a monster or demon.
"Indeed, I still seem more human," Ouyang Yudu, hidden within Di Esi's troops, felt a sense of old age comfort.
"My level is still not enough, I must quickly continue to level up, at least one major level above him, no, two major levels, to be able to fight him." Tu Xiaodao, also hiding, felt again the need to level up.
Everyone was looking at Lin Shen, but one person was retreating.
Fear surged through Wan Guliu's nerves like a tide, his body trembling with dread. He knew Lin Shen was strong but had never imagined Lin Shen would be strong to this extent.
That was Wu Mian, hailed as the strongest defense among Ascension Level beings, an Ascender known throughout the universe, just like that, killed by a single finger strike from Lin Shen.
All he wanted was to leave this place as quickly as possible; he knew Lin Shen wouldn't let him go this time.
