“Dad!”
“Lin Chen!”
“Your Majesty!”
When Lin Chen disappeared, everyone felt a chill in their hearts and couldn’t help but cry out in shock.
No one had expected that the battle, which had been fierce and close, would suddenly take a dramatic turn.
And no one had expected that Beerus’ attack would have such incredible power.
Even Lin Chen couldn’t resist it?
“That’s Beerus-sama’s Power of Destruction, capable of destroying everything in the world…Brother Lin Chen…is dead,” Broly lamented, closing his eyes.
Everything had happened so suddenly. If he had known that Beerus would go so far as to use lethal force, he would have tried to intervene.
But unfortunately…
“Alright, alright, don’t be sad,” Whis said with a smile, seeing the sadness on everyone’s faces. “Don’t worry, it seems that Lin Chen isn’t dead yet.”
“What? Lin Chen isn’t dead?” Everyone was stunned by Whis’ words.
Even Beerus, who was celebrating his victory in the distance, wore a skeptical expression.
Lin Chen had clearly been completely annihilated by his Power of Destruction, so how could he not be dead?
However, as if confirming Whis’ judgment, just as the crowd exclaimed, a mysterious power instantly pervaded the Sacred World of the Kai.
This power was extremely peculiar, giving people a strong sense of dizziness.
“This seems to be… the Power of Time?” Old Kai exclaimed.
Almost simultaneously, at the very spot where Lin Chen had been annihilated just moments ago, a voice silently appeared.
Even though there was no trace of aura on his body, he exuded an unparalleled and terrifying pressure. If it wasn’t Lin Chen, then who could it be?
Beerus stared at Lin Chen in disbelief and finally reacted, “You… you can even use the Power of Time?”
“Yes, didn’t Whis tell you?” Lin Chen replied with a faint smile.
Although he appeared calm, the situation had been incredibly dangerous just moments ago.
As mentioned earlier, Beerus’ mastery of the Power of Destruction was far more profound than Lin Chen’s.
This Power of Destruction has transcended spatial boundaries and is undoubtedly locked on its target. The Power of Destruction, even if it had to pursue to the ends of the universe, will obliterate the target without a chance of escape.
Sensing this, Lin Chen knew that even if he were to use Instant Transmission, there was absolutely no chance of escape.
So, Lin Chen made a dangerous decision.
He left behind a trace of the Power of Time in the present world, and this power came into effect when he was about to be completely obliterated by the Power of Destruction, reversing Lin Chen’s time by 3 seconds.
Similar to the original work where Whis reversed time to save Earth from Frieza’s destruction, Lin Chen used this move to save himself from what was otherwise certain death.
“God of Destruction Beerus, I really underestimated you! But I won’t give you another chance! Super Kaio-ken!
Having narrowly escaped disaster, Lin Chen gave it his all, using his full strength.
Whoosh! A lightning-fast assault began once more.
Two figures transformed into two different colored streaks of light.
One was red, the other was purple. They engaged in an ultra-high-speed battle in the Sacred World of the Kai.
Among the people present, only Whis and Broly could barely keep up with their movements.
As for the others, even Goku and Vegeta, all they could hear were the constant sounds of battle echoing in the sky, leaving them completely stunned.
This was the first time they had witnessed such an intense battle.
Even the battle between Lin Chen and Majin Buu in the past had never been this fierce.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the battle between Lin Chen and Beerus, the shockwaves of their battle continued to rampage through the Sacred World of the Kai.
The terrifying power seemed as though it would completely destroy the Sacred World of the Kai, causing one enormous void after another to appear.
“Why! How can a mere mortal possess such power? This is absolutely impossible!”
Bang!
Amid a violent collision, Beerus staggered and was the first to retreat from their high-speed clash, taking a step back.
“Oh my, Beerus-sama is actually being suppressed!” Whis was surprised by the current turn of events.
Taro, who was nearby, hadn’t forgotten Whis’ earlier words and asked, “Uncle, didn’t you say my dad couldn’t win? What do you say now?”
“Don’t be hasty. Beerus-sama still has one more powerful move up his sleeve,” Whis replied with a hint of concern. “However, if Beerus-sama does use that move, it could be troublesome. At that point, I might not even be able to stop the two of them.”
Just as Whis was contemplating whether to let the battle continue, Beerus couldn’t hold back any longer and unleashed his ultimate move.
“Lin Chen! Among all the other Gods of Destruction from different universes, you’re the first one to force me to use this move! Be proud! And then, prepare to die!”
In the next moment, Beerus’ aura underwent a sudden transformation.
A silvery energy enveloped him, emitting a hazy silvery radiance.
Beerus, at this moment, had completely shed the violent aura he was emitting earlier and instead gave off a sense of calm.
“What’s going on? What has happened to Beerus-sama?” Broly couldn’t help but mutter.
As the person closest to the God of Destruction on the scene besides Whis, he suddenly realized that he was actually somewhat unclear about Beerus’ strength.
“Ah… he’s finally using it,” Whis shook his head.
Now that Beerus had unleashed his ultimate move, this battle was no longer something he could intervene in.
“Teacher, Beerus-sama……”
“Ultra Instinct.”
Just as Whis was about to explain, Lin Chen muttered to himself.
That’s right, the state Beerus was in right now was indeed the most powerful state in the Dragon Ball world, known as Ultra Instinct!
Lin Chen is well aware of the power of Ultra Instinct; it’s a profound state that transcends the ordinary boundaries of strength.
According to legend, Ultra Instinct is a special state passed down among the gods, a manifestation of one’s unleashed potential after breaking their limits.
Even the gods found it difficult to reach the peak of Ultra Instinct.
In the original work, during the Tournament of Power held by Zeno, Goku entered Ultra Instinct state at a crucial moment when facing the formidable warrior Jiren from Universe 11. This allowed them to turn the tide of the tournament at the end and find hope for victory.
According to the original work, all members of the Angel race possessed Ultra Instinct, and God of Destruction Beerus had also sought Whis’ guidance in learning it. Though he hadn’t fully mastered it, it had made Beerus one of the most powerful Gods of Destruction among the twelve universes.
The characteristics of Ultra Instinct included a separation of consciousness and body, a significant increase in speed and reaction time, and the ability for the body to act automatically without being controlled by the brain.
Entering the Ultra Instinct state was like activating an automatic evasion cheat, allowing one to effortlessly dodge any form of attack.
