Chapter 635: Chapter 257: Dragonborn’s True Form, A Spark Starts a Wildfire

Keep in mind that previously, when facing Noah, Lin Ye’s stats had only been just over a million, even with his [Chaos War-Form] active.

But now, without even activating that final trump card, his physical stats were already on par with what they were back then!

Furthermore, the 30% all-elemental damage reduction from his Sub-dragon Warrior racial trait, combined with the elemental affinity and resistance he had continuously accumulated over such a long time during the P3 [Elemental Mastery] phase, gave Lin Ye a frighteningly high damage reduction against elemental attacks!

Sheer stats, sheer toughness!

In the face of absolute power, all techniques seemed pale and powerless.

Xia Lianxue went cold all over.

The next moment, her figure abruptly turned ethereal, merging once again into the surrounding elements and vanishing without a trace.

This time, her Elemental Mimicry was even more perfect. She had completely severed all ties with the outside world, making it impossible for a weapon like Profound to ever lock onto her again.

However, Lin Ye’s blazing golden vertical pupils suddenly snapped to a patch of empty space to his left.

[Spatial Warp]!

His figure vanished instantly, and in the next moment, he appeared right in front of that empty space.

His right hand, covered in black Scale Armor, formed into a claw and swiped out viciously, letting out a sharp shriek as it tore through the air!

SCHLICK—!

In the empty space, it was as if something invisible had been torn open by the claw.

A few drops of crimson blood spilled out of thin air, instantly evaporating in the scorching atmosphere.

A blurry purple figure flashed into view for a moment before vanishing—it was Xia Lianxue!

She clutched her shoulder, where four claw marks were carved so deep the bone was visible!

Her pupils trembled, her face a mask of utter disbelief.

"This... this is impossible! How did you see me?!"

’My Elemental Mimicry should be able to fool any perception in the world!’

Lin Ye didn’t answer.

He simply locked onto her again.

Alarm bells screamed in Xia Lianxue’s mind. Without hesitation, she executed another elemental jump, her figure flickering across the battlefield.

But to her absolute horror, she discovered that no matter where she moved, no matter how she changed her position, those indifferent vertical pupils, burning with blazing golden flames, remained locked firmly onto her!

’I can’t dodge!’

’I can’t escape!’

’It’s happening again!’

’This feeling again!’

’Everything I prided myself on, all of my trump cards, were nothing but a joke in front of him, effortlessly torn to shreds!’

Scenes from the national exams flashed uncontrollably through Xia Lianxue’s mind. The sense of powerlessness and humiliation from being completely crushed overwhelmed her once more.

’No!’

’I can’t lose!’

’I absolutely cannot!’

’If I can’t beat him today... he will become a lifelong nightmare, an inner demon I can never overcome!’

’Win!’

’I must win!’

A flash of desperate resolve and madness crossed Xia Lianxue’s eyes.

She slammed her eyes shut, letting her consciousness sink completely, allowing herself to fall into that endless Sea of Chaos that represented the very origin of the elements!

"All Creation... Return to One!"

In the real world, a sudden change occurred!

CRACK...

A crisp cracking sound came from Xia Lianxue’s chest.

An exquisite Crystal Stone, shimmering with countless colors as if carved from the world’s most perfect gem, emerged from her body.

It was her Elemental Heart!

CRACK... SHATTER!

A crack appeared on the surface of the Crystal Stone. Immediately after, the green light representing "Wind" peeled off from the stone and dissipated into the world.

"Such obsession..."

In the conference room, Hou Guanghe let out a long sigh.

Then, his expression turned grim as he said to Yi Jiugao beside him, "Prepare to intervene. Prepare for rescue."

Yi Jiugao tensed.

Even when Xia Lianxue was on the verge of losing control earlier, Hou Guanghe had remained as steady as a mountain. For him to order a rescue preparation now meant the situation had deteriorated to a critical point!

Sun Lie didn’t understand. "Mr. Hou, what’s happening now? What is that girl doing?"

Hou Guanghe’s voice was incredibly grave. "To gain absolute control over a single element, she is actively sacrificing and stripping away her affinity for all other elements."

"For a short time, the power of her chosen element will reach a terrifying level."

"But the price is... after this battle, her ’Elemental Sovereign’ ability might only be able to command a single element."

"This can’t be happening!"

Hearing this, Zhu Mingyi’s expression changed drastically, and he completely lost his composure. "This is madness! She’s destroying her own future!"

Yi Jiugao made a snap decision. "Stop the match immediately!"

"It’s too late."

But Hou Guanghe suddenly raised a hand to stop him, his eyes glued to the screen, his expression growing incredibly complex.

"Let’s respect her choice."

As soon as he finished speaking, the situation on the battlefield changed once again!

CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!

From Xia Lianxue’s Elemental Heart, the radiances representing lightning, fire, earth, wood, light, and darkness were stripped away one after another, shattering and dissipating!

In the end, only a single color remained on the rainbow-hued Crystal Stone.

It was... an ultimate, deep blue that seemed to bury everything!

Just like her heart at this moment, sinking into a frozen sea.

In that instant, the world fell silent.

The air vanished.

It was the complete dissolution of the Wind Element.

The light dimmed.

It was the complete collapse of the Light Element.

The forest below, which had been burning with raging flames, instantly cooled and was extinguished, turning a deathly black.

It was the complete demise of the Fire Element.

For miles in every direction, all matter—be it trees, rocks, or even the dust floating in the air—visibly began to disintegrate, reduced to its most primitive particles before being utterly annihilated.

It was as if only one rule, one element, remained in the world.
