“Failure?” leaving the phone booth, Rip Z observed the dying red mass of light and sighed.
In the end, having the potential to break through the world’s limit was still only ‘having potential’, there were more examples of those who failed than there were of those who succeeded.
Rip Z then turned towards Mi Yi who had fused with Revelation. After seeing the truth, the other party’s mentality had been struck so hard that he lost his senses. If he couldn’t escape from this mental obstacle, his personality would also shatter, no longer having the courage to strive for anything ever again.
Quite obviously, Rip Z’s mission would completely fail in either case.
On the other hand, the other members of the Ultra Space-Time Squad were cheering in joy; having stopped the undead timeline and saved the world, they were this world’s heroes.
Looking at his past comrades, Rip Z smiled bitterly. Sometimes, ignorance was bliss; not knowing anything meant they had nothing to fear, they would be able to enjoy their victory and simply wait until the end of the world.
Rip Z had seen the scene of a parallel world’s destruction many times: They all happened in a single instant, every last bit of matter and energy within the world collapsed at once, turning into the most basic particles, expelling everyone’s souls from within to turn into the most beautiful lightshow.
As it happened in a single instant, there would be no pain or suffering.
Sometimes, Rip Z even envied such people, but he would always reaffirm his will. Although the people of the United Front were said to have only broken through their world’s limit opportunistically, that didn’t mean that their willpower was weak. On the contrary, their willpower was extraordinarily strong.
To resist Negary and obtain freedom, that was the common ideal of the entire United Front. However, on the path of their resistance, their personalities had been gradually altered bit by bit, growing closer to Negary.
“To defeat the abyss, one must first enter the abyss” Rip Z laughed to himself: “Or will the dragon slayer eventually become the dragon?”
Rip Z didn’t know either, the only thing he could do was to continue forward on his journey, until one day he felt at peace with himself.
Just as Rip Z was about to report his failure, the mass of light representing Xu Fu suddenly began to flicker and burn, growing increasingly brighter.
“That’s impossible…” Rip Z was completely stunned.
According to their calculations, in order to break through the world’s limit, Xu Fu could only rely on his [Origin] ability at the bottom of despair to consume his other selves, through which he would break through.
However, according to his observations, Xu Fu’s willpower had yet to break through the limits of the parallel worlds, nor had the other versions of Xu Fu been consumed. And yet, Xu Fu’s existence was certainly subliming and growing increasingly stronger.
At the very next moment, Xu Fu’s willpower achieved a breakthrough unlike never before. By borrowing the medium that was his [Origin], he spread his willpower to all other Xu Fu as well.
In the royal capital, Mi Yi was sitting on his throne. In his great hall, numerous statues stood lined up side by side. These statues were extremely life-like, especially their eyes, which remained fresh as if they were alive. In reality, they were indeed still alive, except they now lived as statues.
Using a bronze cup to savor his high-quality wine, Mi Yi felt absolutely no joy. Having achieved the World – Man – Will triple synchronization, Mi Yi discovered the truth behind the world, which stripped him of all his courage to go further, so he remained in his little world as its king and ruler.
“Mi Ze, give up, you won’t defeat me”
At this point, the only thing that could give him a little bit of joy was defeating this past enemy of his. This was also the reason why he had defeated the other party numerous times, yet still let him go; somewhere deep in his heart, he was actually wishing that Mi Ze might one day be able to kill him, ending his miserable life of cowardice.
Once again defeating Mi Ze, Mi Yi felt his heart becoming emptier as well. Suddenly, a statue next to him began to glow red, which surprised Mi Yi. It was Xu Fu’s statue, which was showing a different reaction for the first time in a long while.
The statue then began to move as Xu Fu awakened from it, causing Mi Yi to frown a bit. To obtain the stone demon mask, he was once Xu Fu’s close aide, so he understood him better than anyone else; and yet right at this moment, he found this Xu Fu who just woken up to be completely foreign.
“Seems like you’re still hiding some secrets after all, that’s great, you’re going to give me even more fun” Mi Yi happily laughed as he reached his hand forward to control the matter and energy on Xu Fu’s body.
Immediately after that, with a flash of red light, Mi Yi’s chest was pierced through. The profound crimson light proceeded to surround his body, cutting off his connection with the world.
“What… a truly pleasant surprise” Mi Yi’s lips curled into a smile, then died with it. For the current Mi Yi, death was a form of release.
The crimson light then proceeded to envelop Mi Yi and assimilated him as an incarnation.
More and more versions of Xu Fu began to glow red, even the ones who were not part of the living statues timeline cluster were infected. Xu Fu’s personal willpower completely assimilated their souls, then gathered them all through his [Origin] ability into a unified form. Once again, their souls had been completely unified and united as one.
[Rip Z, what is going on? Unnatural reactions are coming from every parallel world, the source of which was found to be on your side] Gorilla General’s call gave Rip Z a bad premonition.
“Perhaps, we were wrong after all” Rip Z muttered to himself, then saw Xu Fu split off into several rays of light that shot towards everyone in his vicinity. The rays struck Mi Yi, Mi Ze, and even Rip Z without any of them being able to defend against it; Xu Fu’s willpower began to spread into their minds through these split souls, assimilating them into himself.
“The United Front?” after obtaining information about the United Front from Rip Z, Xu Fu did not stop. He immediately shot through the sky as a ray of red light that broke through the world’s limit, heading straight towards the United Front’s position.
The perfect unified organic and inorganic entity: Gorilla General.
In order to gain strength, she modified herself into the mother of all living creatures, in other words, a creature breeding machine: Black Widow. Every kind of tiny tadpole she collected allowed her to create a different kind of soldier.
Using a mystical ritual to adhere herself to the mystery of the universe: Constantine. She was successful in approaching Negary, but she overestimated her rationality and ended up losing it completely, becoming a mindless monster. Currently, she was an organic weapon of the United Front.
There was also Major Cage who had become The Omega, having completely activated the Mystic Blood in his body. He was now a soldier breeder not unlike Black Widow.
Also part of the previous Ultra Space-Time Squad, The Doctor did not fare any better than the others. To save everyone, he continuously risked his life, undergoing Regeneration over and over, each time changing his personality. In the end, during one of his Regenerations, he became affected by Space-Time fluctuations and turned into a mutated Space-Time creature.
Other than them, there were also numerous others who had utilized all sorts of means to break through the limit of their own parallel worlds, all of whom became Xu Fu’s nutrients for him to mature and achieve the third stage of release. The entire process could be described as smooth as water flowing downstream, and with so much accumulated nutrients to aid him, he easily reinforced his abilities to their peaks.
If he continued to break through, he might become an Entity of the Thousand Transformations Demon pathway.
〖 Xu Fu, your Error, I shall accept 〗Negary’s consciousness mobilized, a golden behemoth completely swallowed the crimson light.
