As time passed, more than half of the second hourglass had emptied, and the confident and powerful beings within the Chaotic Battleground had begun their hunting spree.
These beings were extremely strong within the Dao Breaking Realm, and some had even stepped beyond its confines, with one foot already in the realm of the Chaos Controller. Although such beings were still listed as being in the Dao Breaking Realm, others had a different name for them.
They were called Half-Step Controllers!
In reality, these Half-Step Controller beings were even more eager for points.
This was because within the exchange system, there was a treasure costing a staggering 30,000 points, a treasure that held a fatal attraction for everyone: the Hongmeng Purple Qi, which could help those in the Dao Breaking Realm break through their shackles.
For example, Qing Lian, ranked second on the points leaderboard, and the Northern Mountain Demon God, ranked third, were both Half-Step Controllers. Ordinary Dao Breaking Realm beings simply couldn't withstand a single blow from them.
They were the strongest beings in the Chaos Burial World.
Beneath the Half-Step Controllers were the powerhouses who had reached the pinnacle of the Dao Breaking Realm. These beings had reached the fifth step of the Dao Breaking Realm. For example, Di Yuan, the founder of the Emperor Origin Alliance, whom Gu Changsheng had his eye on, was at the fifth step of the Dao Breaking Realm and was a well-known figure in the Chaos Burial World.
Some powerhouses liked to show off and act ostentatiously, such as Qing Lian and the Northern Mountain Demon God, who were notorious lone wolves in the Chaos Burial World, decisive in killing and feared by all. Naturally, there were also powerhouses who preferred to keep a low profile.
These individuals generally didn't easily reveal their strength, disguising their aura as that of ordinary powerhouses. In the eyes of a certain rebellious disciple, these types were all referred to as 'Old Six'.
However, our Gu Changsheng had a different perspective. He disguised his aura as being in the Dao Breaking Realm simply because he didn't want to alarm the will of the Chaos Burial World. He definitely had no intention of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger, unlike that Old Six rebellious disciple.
But I've gotten a bit off topic, let's get back to the main subject.
Lin Yu's cultivation had long since broken through to the Half-Step Controller Realm, but he kept a low profile, his aura hidden. His points ranking hovered outside the top twenty. His idea was simple: let others fight to the death to plunder points, and in the end, he would just reap the benefits.
So, under normal circumstances, he wouldn't take the initiative to attack, but would leisurely stroll through the Chaotic Battleground as if it were his back garden. He would casually kill any ignorant beings he encountered. Having reached the Half-Step Controller Realm, special artifacts like the God-Slaying Bow no longer posed any danger to him.
At most, the God-Slaying Bow could only deal with powerhouses below the fourth step of the Dao Breaking Realm. Once one reached the fourth step, they would have nothing to fear from such special artifacts.
Only ant-like Immortal Emperors would regard the God-Slaying Bow as a great weapon.
Lin Yu was in a good mood. Just now, he sensed a Dao Breaking artifact probing him, and he could also sense a 'new flavor' on that Dao Breaking artifact. It was definitely newly forged.
He was a very cautious person. Although Half-Step Controllers were strong, one had to know that there was a supreme will above them, suppressing them. Until they truly became Chaos Controllers, they could not be truly free.
However, upon sensing that very new Dao Breaking artifact, he didn't take its master to heart.
It was common knowledge that weapons would improve with their master's cultivation. Since that Dao Breaking artifact was new, it meant that its master was just a newly advanced Dao Breaking Realm being.
Such Dao Breaking Realm beings were no different from Immortal Emperors in his eyes, and could be killed with a single blow.
"But I shouldn't refuse points that are delivered to my door!" Lin Yu said with a faint smile. He didn't leave, but stood there waiting.
Soon, Lin Yu saw a cyan figure approaching him, stepping on a long spear.
Lin Yu narrowed his eyes. The aura emanating from the long spear matched the aura emanating from the Dao Breaking artifact that had probed him earlier, and the aura emanating from the cyan figure was only equivalent to the second step of the Dao Breaking Realm. Seeing this, a sneer appeared on the corner of Lin Yu's mouth.
With this level of strength, he actually dared to take the initiative to hunt. As expected of a newly advanced Dao Breaking Realm being, too inflated and unaware of the immensity of heaven and earth.
"Oh, he's actually carrying a rabbit?" Lin Yu wondered inwardly, but it was only a fleeting thought.
He obviously hadn't realized the seriousness of the matter. He had clearly seen the little rabbit on Gu Changsheng's shoulder at first glance, but he forgot about the little rabbit's existence the moment he blinked. He didn't realize that his memory had been reset twice because of the blink.
Gu Changsheng stepped on the long spear and arrived in front of Lin Yu. When he saw Lin Yu, he narrowed his eyes and said, "You're very strange!"
Lin Yu narrowed his eyes and chuckled, "Your senses are very keen. No wonder you were able to reach the top!"
Obviously, Lin Yu had already recognized Gu Changsheng as the top of the list.
"Since you know I'm number one, why didn't you run? Aren't you afraid?" Gu Changsheng asked with a smile.
"Hahaha..."
Lin Yu laughed as if he had heard the funniest joke. After laughing, his eyes turned cold and he said, "Since you feel that I am very strange, why don't you run?"
"Me? Run?" Gu Changsheng's face was full of strangeness. This was the first time he had encountered someone who wanted him to run.
Gu Changsheng glanced at him and said, "Just because you will never be able to break through to the Chaos Controller Realm?"
Lin Yu's face sank and he said, "You're just a small second step Dao Breaking Realm being, yet you dare to speak presumptuously about Half-Step Controllers. You're courting death!"
With that, Lin Yu waved his hand as if he was swatting a fly, slapping towards Gu Changsheng.
But the next moment...
With a crisp "smack" sound, Lin Yu's head tilted to the right. At this moment, his eyes were full of disbelief, but the burning pain coming from his left face told him that he had been slapped by Gu Changsheng.
Gu Changsheng looked at him indifferently and asked, "What is a Half-Step Controller? A Controller is a Controller, where does the 'Half-Step' come from?"
"Such nonsense!"
"You..." Lin Yu pointed at Gu Changsheng, not knowing what to say. Finally, he said, "Could it be that you are a Chaos Controller?"
Gu Changsheng did not answer his question, but gave him a faint look, then waved his hand. Lin Yu's expression froze, and then his entire being turned into nothingness, disappearing without a trace.
"Master is mighty!"
At this time, the Barbecue Spear finally spoke. The aura that Lin Yu exuded the moment he wanted to attack had instantly shocked it. That aura was much stronger than it, causing its thoughts to instantly stagnate, giving it a feeling that it would collapse at any moment.
But Gu Changsheng easily killing Lin Yu shocked it even more. Chaos Controller? Could it be that Master is really a Chaos Controller?
If that's the case, then it really followed the right person!
The little flower on Gu Changsheng's shoulder didn't feel anything about this. She just asked curiously, "Gu Changsheng, what is a Half-Step Controller and a Chaos Controller?"
As soon as the Barbecue Spear heard this, it quickly concentrated its attention. It also wanted to know the relationship between the two, maybe it could become a Chaos Controller-level weapon in the future?
