"I'm fine. Goblin Moon, you've awakened? Why do you still look like a goblin?" Lin Tian said, glancing at Alice and the others who were concerned about him.
Hearing this, Goblin Moon pouted with grievance. "Boss... do you think I'm not pretty anymore?"
Luo Ai'er immediately chimed in unhappily, "Lady Xiya was reborn as a goblin—how could she possibly return to her original form? You heartless bastard, have you changed just because you've grown stronger?"
Phoenix awkwardly fidgeted nearby, unsure what to do.
Realizing his mistake, Lin Tian didn't respond to Luo Ai'er. Instead, he walked over to Goblin Moon and patted her head. "Don't worry, you're the prettiest goblin."
Goblin Moon was already quite beautiful in her current form—he had just been curious about her original appearance.
"Lord Lin Tian, what should we do next?" Xi stepped forward and asked.
Suddenly—
An icy, suffocating killing intent erupted!
Xi, the Grand Sage, Mist Ghost, and the other Dominators shuddered in terror, their instincts screaming at them to flee!
They all tensed, staring at Lin Tian in horror.
His eyes gleamed with a crimson light as he spoke.
"Next... you will hand over your Dominator sparks. They will help me advance to the fourth tier."
"You—you bastard!" Mist Ghost snarled, never expecting Lin Tian to turn on them.
He immediately activated his stealth ability, trying to escape—
But the next second, he crashed into an invisible barrier.
And in that same instant—
**"Rip—!"**
The space around him was violently torn apart!
Mist Ghost was forcibly dragged out of stealth, his body mangled and broken.
He barely clung to life.
"H-How... How could you detect me... damn you...!" he gasped, his eyes filled with fear.
Lin Tian walked over calmly, digging out the Dominator spark from his still-warm flesh.
"I couldn't see your stealth, but I could sense when someone touched my spatial barrier."
Then, he turned to the others.
"Considering your contributions, I'll spare your lives if you hand over your sparks willingly."
In the past, Lin Tian wouldn't have hesitated to slaughter them all.
But now, their flesh held no value to him.
And even if they survived, they could never threaten him.
Seeing this, the Ice Queen suppressed her fear and tremblingly extracted her spark.
"M-Master... I offer it to you..."
"Good. You've chosen wisely. Soon, you'll thank yourself for this decision."
Lin Tian took the icy spark and absorbed it without hesitation.
He could feel his own spark growing stronger—on the verge of a breakthrough.
The Grand Sage, however, glared with hatred.
"Lin Tian! We... we loyally served you! And this is how you repay us?!"
Lin Tian's gaze turned cold. "I could have killed you all. Instead, I'm giving you a chance to live. And you dare complain?"
He raised a hand, ready to execute the man.
But Xi suddenly intervened.
"I understand. You've absorbed the Eternal Ice Demon's spark and are close to advancing, right?"
With that, she took out her own spark.
"Everyone, Lord Lin Tian eliminated the Eternal Ice Demon for us. Our sparks are no longer essential. The choice is yours."
Hearing this, the Deep Sea Emperor and the Silver Chief also surrendered theirs.
After absorbing these three, Lin Tian finally broke through—
**Fourth-tier Dominator.**
He then glanced at the Black Goat Mother Goddess.
"You can keep yours. Without it, you wouldn't survive in the Outer Realms."
The Outer Realms were filled with chaotic, twisted abominations.
Only strength mattered there.
The weak were doomed to become prey.
Xi, now weakened, asked, "Then... what next?"
Lin Tian waved dismissively. "You're all free to return home. I have matters to attend to—after the Insect Queen replenishes herself with the trillions of goblin corpses."
The billions of dead goblins could still serve as food for the Insect Queen.
This batch needed to be consumed before she could resume production.
"Matters? Understood."
Xi didn't dare press further and nodded.
The others quickly dispersed.
Mist Ghost, too gravely injured to survive, was left to die.
Then, Lin Tian turned to Alice.
"How's that woman doing?"
That woman—the Goddess of Misfortune.
One-Eyed Owl answered, "Last I saw, she was half-dead from torture. Locked up."
"Good. Take me to her."
A flicker of killing intent passed through Lin Tian's eyes.
Now that he had reached the fourth tier—
A tier where one could master **two Supreme Laws**—
It was time to select a new power.
As for the others?
Once the goblin army regrouped, they would launch an invasion across dimensions, seizing more sparks.
No one would be left behind.
No one would fail to become a Dominator.
