Chapter Index

    A gigantic, hardened black cannon stood on the defensive position.

    It was aimed deep into the dark void.

    If one looked straight ahead along the barrel, they could see the gray, misty fog deep within that void.

    That was the location of World D-0314—the world of monsters.

    “The cannon is ready!”

    A professional shouted.

    He looked at the white duck in front of him, puzzled as to why this duck had specifically come to inspect.

    But this duck was a primordial spirit!

    What did it want to do?

    “I think this cannon isn’t ready yet.”

    The good duck said in a deep voice.

    It spread its wings and patted the heavy cannon.

    The next moment.

    The upgraded version of the Destroyer Heavy Cannon let out a “rumbling” sound.

    Several branches extended from the surface of the black metal barrel, like bifurcated tree branches, forming a dozen or so barrels all pointing towards the sky.

    “The ‘Multiple Salvoes’ Destroyer Heavy Cannon.”

    “Currently renamed as: ‘Multiple Salvoes’ Destroyer Heavy Cannon.”

    The white duck stepped back a few paces, satisfied with its masterpiece.

    It had personally witnessed the process of the Destroyer’s “creation.”

    So.

    It was feasible to imbue creation with change again using the power of destruction!

    “Respected primordial spirit, please, look, there are many more here—”

    The guiding professional shouted.

    The good duck turned its head to look.

    Mama mia!

    All the camouflage of the fortifications peeled away, and cannon after cannon appeared in its line of sight.

    There were too many!

    If it were to assign prefixes, it would take some time.

    It couldn’t handle it all!

    The good duck had a sudden idea, squatted down, pressed its duck wings to the ground, and bellowed:

    “Come on!”

    In an instant.

    Lines of glowing small text quickly appeared:

    “You have used the upgraded term ‘Behind-the-Scenes Figure’.”

    “You have currently selected the target: Black Flame City.”

    “Currently assigning a prefix or suffix to this city.”

    “Adaptation complete.”

    “Please choose:”

    “Prefix ‘Defense Upgrade’, or suffix ‘s’.”

    The good duck immediately chose the suffix.

    “Choice complete, suffix ‘s’ assigned.”

    “Black Flame City now possesses multiple illusions, capable of releasing identical attacks until all illusions are shattered, only then will Black Flame City be exposed to the enemy.”

    —Remarkable!

    The crowd looked up and saw a mirage-like illusory scene appearing above the city.

    Layer upon layer of cities floated above Black Flame City.

    They were all Black Flame City!

    “It’s incredible…”

    A professional murmured.

    The good duck was also a little excited.

    This confirmed one of its conjectures—

    —Creation could be continuously upgraded and changed.

    Its own Endless Destroyer Throne could actually do the same.

    It just hadn’t had time to focus on this world generated by the door!

    Suddenly.

    As if sensing something, it instantly disappeared into the void.

    Boom!!!

    A dazzling star-like spell descended from the sky, piercing through several layers of illusions, and directly striking the spot where the good duck had originally stood.

    A black hole suddenly appeared on the ground.

    Flames surged from the hole, forming a pillar of fire that shot into the sky, instantly piercing through multiple illusory cities.

    Just one blow!

    All the cities were pierced through!

    In the distance.

    Shen Ye witnessed this scene and his heart trembled.

    —If it weren’t for the multiple Black Flame City illusions blocking the way, the good duck would have become a roasted duck!

    Several leading professionals ran over and reported:

    “My Lord! This is a King-level spell—”

    “Our previous city lord was defeated by this spell.”

    King-level spell…

    Shen Ye fell into contemplation.

    It seemed he also had a King-level term “Top Duck.”

    But this term was one-time use.

    It had already been used.

    And he had obtained that exclusive armor of the power of myriad worlds—

    “Pretty Duck’s White Coat”!

    But what level was King-level?

    At this thought, Shen Ye couldn’t help but sneer, saying:

    “How can this be considered a King-level spell?”

    The several professionals thought he was about to show off, so they chattered:

    “My Lord, this spell is among the top three in a world, sweeping across the entire world, so it can be called King-level.”

    “Our city lord was no match for this move at all.”

    “Of course, if you, My Lord, were to take action, then perhaps we would still have a chance to live.”

    “—The Primordial Spirit of Destruction recognizes you, My Lord, and we are also willing to follow you!”

    Shen Ye just listened quietly.

    One move broke through the defenses of multiple cities.

    How were they supposed to fight this?

    Besides, he had already obtained the resources of this city.

    These Destroyer servants were also those who had betrayed their original worlds, clinging to life under the will of Destruction.

    There was no need to fight for their lives here.

    Leave?

    Yes, leave.

    Shen Ye was about to leave when lines of glowing small text appeared in the void:

    “The King of the opposing world has detected the King-level power on you—”

    “This power comes from your term ‘Top Duck’.”

    “Although the term has been consumed, the power remains within you.”

    “Therefore.”

    “The opponent has initiated the ‘Cage Battle’ spell.”

    “This is a secret, agreed-upon battle between Destruction and World D. The chosen one cannot escape and must fight!”

    “You cannot resist this spell.”

    “The King-level power of the loser will be absorbed by the victor.”

    “Begin!”

    What—

    Before Shen Ye could react, bursts of spatial spell fluctuations suddenly emanated from his body.

    The surrounding professionals fell to their knees, all crying out in unison:

    “Indeed!”

    “You, like our previous city lord, chose to meet the challenge personally!”

    “To protect us, you willingly went into battle alone!”

    “We acknowledge you, My Lord!”

    Shen Ye: “…”

    Their expressions did not seem feigned.

    So—

    At this very moment, the previous city lord did not tell everyone that he was forced to teleport away?

    Then I also—

    Shen Ye puffed out his chest and said coldly:

    “This level of battle is beyond your reach. You’d better defend yourselves here.”

    “—I will fight this battle alone!”

    Before his words finished.

    Swish—

    He disappeared from his spot.

    The professionals all stood up, eyes red, each radiating a war intent of fighting to the death.

    “Full defense!”

    “Good!”

    Everyone shouted in unison.

    On the other side.

    Shen Ye appeared on a vast arena.

    This was a floating arena suspended in the depths of endless darkness.

    On the other side of the arena, a monster was already standing, awaiting his arrival.

    Shen Ye, however, did not look at the opponent, but was thinking about another matter.

    Destruction Tribulation did not care about Black Flame City.

    So it personally told itself that it did not matter.

    But this King-level battle should be inevitable.

    Then—

    The significance of this battle should be more important than a single city.

    King…

    A battle between World Kings?

    Shen Ye sighed and looked across.

    “The new city lord of Black Flame City, I’ve never seen you before. Don’t you plan to introduce yourself?”

    The monster said in a teasing tone.

    “Haven’t you been hunting me all this time? You should know everything I’ve done,” Shen Ye said.

    “Yes, you took out that brain nest and killed my newly acquired servant,” the monster said.

    The monster stepped out of the darkness, one step at a time.

    It looked like a golden-haired man with vertical pupils—

    Surprisingly, there was no difference from a human!

    “Don’t be surprised, the new species ‘human’ has departed from ‘grace’. I have also acquired some humans, so I’ve recently been familiarizing myself with human anatomy to see if I can gain anything.”

    The golden-haired man observed his expression and said.

    “Is there any benefit to dressing up as a human?” Shen Ye asked.

    “Human appearance is fashionable now—after all, it’s the newest race. Everyone wants to try it and see what it’s like to be human,” the golden-haired man said.

    He spoke calmly, but wisps of mist appeared beneath his feet.

    Power.

    Power concretized into mist.

    What kind of abilities did this monster possess?

    “The servant you mentioned, is it Augustus?”

    Shen Ye asked, while pondering.

    “Yes—it is also a very rare thing. I was planning to study it to obtain a secret of the true world.”

    “But you seem to have obtained it.”

    “If you return it to me, I can leave you a complete corpse.”

    The golden-haired man said.

    Shen Ye fell silent.

    No wonder this guy was hunting him.

    He had killed his subordinate and disrupted his plan to enter the real world.

    Frankly, the Scepter of Withering was the second most important True Creation.

    Augustus, as the consciousness of the Scepter of Withering, indeed had extremely high research value.

    This monster could already transform into human form.

    If it also studied the power of Augustus, perhaps—

    He could appear in the True World as a human?

    Shen Ye thought about that possibility and felt a chill down his spine.

    Fortunately, he had done that earlier—

    Augustus’s corpse, he had offered it to the Destruction Tribulation!

    Of two evils, choose the lesser.

    Rather than letting a monster capable of resisting the Destroyer faction descend upon the True World, it was better to only face one Destroyer Tribulation.

    However—

    He had no information about this monster.

    What it could do, what it was good at, whether it had weaknesses, whether its fighting style was magic or close combat.

    He knew nothing.

    “What are you thinking? Why aren’t you answering me?”

    The golden-haired man asked.

    “How many human leaders have you defeated?” Shen Ye asked.

    “Oh, I don’t remember either. How many exactly? Probably a few hundred, after all, humans are such fragile beings,” the golden-haired man said.

    “So you can kill me at any time,” Shen Ye said.

    “Of course, I can kill you at any time, without any effort,” the golden-haired man laughed.

    Shen Ye’s gaze sharpened.

    “Are you afraid?” the golden-haired man asked eagerly.

    “Of course, I’ve been most afraid of monsters since I was a child. I even wanted to carry a brick when walking at night, just in case I encountered one,” Shen Ye said.

    No intelligence!

    If a battle lacked sufficient intelligence, one could only stake their life to try.

    And this guy had never lost.

    Even the Destruction Tribulation had abandoned the city it attacked.

    He must…

    Be careful.

    Shen Ye thought to himself.

    Meanwhile.

    On the other side.

    Within the Dharma Form.

    In a county town, on the outskirts.

    An abandoned temple.

    The old blind man lay on the dusty ground, letting ants crawl over him, not moving an inch.

    He seemed to be dead.

    Suddenly.

    The old blind man opened his eyes, scratching his stomach as he slowly sat up.

    A person appeared before him.

    A golden-haired man.

    “Is that you?”

    The old blind man said in surprise.

    “Yes, I came in to see what was so powerful about this blade,” the golden-haired man said.

    The old blind man scrutinized the golden-haired man, his cloudy eyes becoming extremely sharp.

    “Even you were turned into a human?”

    He asked in a testing tone.

    “Not exactly,” the golden-haired man replied, “human appearance is popular now—after all, it’s the newest race. Everyone wants to try it and see what it’s like to be human.”

    The old blind man nodded slightly.

    Yes.

    This was true.

    Although he didn’t know how much time had passed outside, when he left the outside world, many existences were indeed trying to become human.

    “How could you possibly be defeated by him?”

    The old blind man said in an incredulous tone, his eyes fixed on the other party.

    As long as there was the slightest anomaly, he would be able to see through it!

    The golden-haired man’s face showed arrogance, and he said:

    “My new subordinate—it’s a very rare thing. I’m here to reclaim it.”

    The old blind man immediately recalled Augustus.

    It had been a long time since he had contacted that fool.

    He heard that he had recently been cultivating a divine art called Nine Yin Nine Yang?

    Absurd!

    Everything in this world was fake!

    “For a subordinate, to take this blade specifically, seems a bit overconfident.”

    The old blind man remarked.

    He still stared intently at the other party, waiting for a response.

    Is it real?

    Or fake?

    This was the defining moment!

    The golden-haired man spoke:

    “It doesn’t matter, I was planning to study the consciousness of that wisdom staff to gain some secrets of the True World.”

    The old blind man’s heart stirred, but he immediately suppressed his excitement.

    Yes!

    At that time, it had gained the allegiance of the True Creation’s consciousness, and he had been envious for a while.

    This was real!

    The old blind man deliberately yawned and said lazily:

    “You’re a bit overconfident. This blade is difficult to deal with, even with your kind of power it’s a bit dangerous.”

    The golden-haired boy smiled arrogantly and said:

    “Do you remember how many human leaders I’ve defeated?”

    “No,” the old blind man stared at him, casually replying.

    “Actually, I don’t remember either. How many exactly? Probably a few hundred, after all, humans are such fragile beings,” the golden-haired man said.

    “So you can kill the owner of this blade at any time,” the old blind man said.

    “Of course, I can kill him at any time, without any effort,” the golden-haired man laughed.

    The old blind man could barely suppress his emotions.

    It was real!

    The guy’s tone, demeanor, choice of words, everything—

    It was its original self!

    Only an existence of his level, who had long-term contact with it, would know what kind of personality it had and how it liked to communicate.

    How could a fake imitate it to this extent?

    Impossible!

    “Save me.”

    The old blind man said in a deep voice.

    The golden-haired man looked at him.

    Meanwhile.

    Outside.

    Shen Ye said, “My power is not much weaker than yours—of course, I’m still a tiny bit behind you, but I’m currently caught in the trap of destruction and have to serve it.”

    “What do you want to say?” the golden-haired man asked in surprise.

    “Save me,” Shen Ye said.

    The golden-haired man suddenly burst into laughter, his eyes filled with cruelty and playfulness:

    “I never save other people’s prey, because captured prey are already labeled as ‘useless’ and are not worth my effort.”

    “Unless you can prove your worth.”

    The next moment.

    Within the Dharma Form.

    In the abandoned ancient temple.

    The golden-haired man suddenly burst into laughter, his eyes filled with cruelty and playfulness:

    “I never save other people’s prey, because captured prey are already labeled as ‘useless’ and are not worth my effort.”

    “Unless you can prove your worth.”

    The old blind man stumbled backward as if he had been punched, his wrinkled face easing.

    “It really is you…”

    “But how will you break this blade?”

    The golden-haired man ignored him.

    At this moment.

    Shen Ye, using Nangong Sirui’s “Actor” power through “Passionate Comrades”, had already completed part of the imitation and learning.

    шшш ★TTkan ★¢O

    He instantly got into character, controlling the illusory “golden-haired man,” and continued the act.

    “What right do you have to question me?”

    The golden-haired man said indifferently, turning to leave.

    Yes!

    This completely matched what he had said!

    If Donao River had not proved its worth, it would just be someone else’s prey, a good-for-nothing in the golden-haired man’s eyes!

    The golden-haired man disdained to speak to him anymore!

    “Wait—”

    The old blind man shouted, speaking quickly:

    “This person is somewhat strange. He seems to have multiple clones. Killing one won’t break through here.”

    Shen Ye paused.

    —Should he respond?

    If I were the golden-haired man, how would I respond?

    No.

    From what was known, the golden-haired man would not respond.

    Because the initiative was currently in his hands.

    If the golden-haired man had truly descended freely and could truly leave at any time—

    He would certainly see that the old blind man was trapped here!

    The old blind man had to prove his worth!

    The golden-haired man glanced coldly at the old blind man, but said nothing.

    This meaning was clear!

    —You have one last chance to speak!

    “Listen, although your move is King-level and invincible in the world, you still need to pay attention to a few issues if you want to break his blade.”

    The old blind man said.

    At the same time—

    On the arena of the Cage Battle.

    “I think we don’t need to talk anymore.”

    The mist under the golden-haired man’s feet surged up, forming an armor that draped over him:

    “When I tear your flesh to shreds, your soul will beg to tell me where my subordinate is.”

    A blurry mist emanated from the armor, making the golden-haired man’s movements unclear.

    Shen Ye’s expression became solemn.

    There was something wrong with that mist.

    In fact, it wasn’t “unclear,” but “impossible to predict and detect.”

    A formidable armor!

    He drew his long saber and struck a stance.

    “In fact, I only have one last thing I must tell you before the battle.”

    He said.

    Last words?

    No harm.

    “Whatever you say, those words will be your last.”

    The golden-haired man said.

    “Alright, then I’ll say it,” Shen Ye said again.

    The golden-haired man remained silent.

    Shen Ye took a deep breath, his face solemn, and said:

    “Eight little white rabbits lived in eight octagonal houses.”

    “?” The golden-haired man questioned.

    “Eight children wanted to catch eight little white rabbits, scaring the little white rabbits so much they dared not live in the eight octagonal houses anymore,” Shen Ye said again.

    “Are you out of your mind?”

    The golden-haired man finished speaking, then his figure flickered and rushed towards Shen Ye.

    Shen Ye drew his saber and met him head-on.

    —Time delay successful.

    The old blind man had already revealed some valuable information.

    From his description, this guy’s strength was indeed incredibly terrifying.

    But it wasn’t completely unwinnable.

    —He only had one chance to strike.

    One strike.

    Could he hit?

    Although “Years Slash” had the rule power of “guaranteed hit,” the armor on the opponent had a secret.

    The armor could block everything for him!

    How many heroes had fallen in front of this armor?

    This was on the defensive side.

    On the offensive side, the opponent’s move had reached the peak of the King level.

    For now, he could only—

    Thump.

    A muffled sound.

    “Hah, with this strength, to dare call yourself a king in the world of Destruction Tribulation, it’s truly disappointing.”

    The golden-haired man said lazily.

    His fist had already struck Shen Ye.

    —No one had ever been able to turn the tables after being hit by him.

    The victory was decided!

    Shen Ye said nothing, but took a step forward.

    This step was as swift as a ghost, as if completely unharmed, which surprised even the golden-haired man slightly.

    “So it’s the ‘Shield of Protection’? It’s useless!”

    The golden-haired man threw another punch.

    Hitting Shen Ye again!

    At this instant, the second “Shield of Annihilation Protection” on Shen Ye’s body shattered!

    The shield skill could be used twice!

    At this moment.

    The shield techniques bestowed by the Destruction Tribulation had all been used up!

    And Shen Ye’s blade had just been drawn.

    The long saber, like a warm and gentle night breeze, lightly swept past the golden-haired man’s hair.

    Yes.

    The golden-haired man was completely covered in armor.

    But his hair was exposed!

    —Years Slash.

    Guaranteed hit.

    Even his hair was an extension of his main body, and the armor did not defend against it.

    This blade—

    Hit its mark!

    In a flash of lightning.

    In the void behind Shen Ye, several voices simultaneously shouted:

    “Dharma Form activated!”

    It sounds slow in description, but at the same time he drew his blade, the golden-haired man also swung his fist again, hitting him.

    Boom—

    Shen Ye was sent flying.

    He crashed into the arena, instantly creating a huge meteor crater.

    The huge sound lasted for a long time.

    Until all the sounds calmed down, Shen Ye still did not appear.

    He lay at the bottom of the pit.

    On him was a freshly donned battle armor.

    —The complete battle armor of the Lord of Multiple Universes!

    The chest of this 14th-order True World battle armor had already cracked open a large hole.

    But it had, after all, blocked one of the opponent’s attacks.

    Extremely perilous!

    As soon as the two shield techniques shattered, Shen Ye began putting on his battle armor.

    Otherwise, that punch would have killed him!

    Through the old blind man, he already knew that this punching technique could penetrate space-time, destroy all past and present lives, and even all clones.

    So he had to block this punch!

    Snap.

    Shen Ye clapped the battle armor.

    Innumerable cracks swiftly snaked from the punch mark, quickly spreading across the entire armor.

    Crackle—

    The complete set of battle armor of the Lord of Multiple Universes shattered!

    And it was completely shattered!

    “Just a little off, that was close… I almost couldn’t even withstand one blow…”

    Shen Ye murmured, still in fear.

    On the other side.

    In the dilapidated ancient temple.

    The old blind man sat on the dusty ground, looking at the golden-haired man opposite him.

    He didn’t know what had happened earlier—

    The space around the golden-haired man seemed to have twisted.

    “What’s going on?”

    The old blind man asked.

    The golden-haired man looked at him, a disdainful expression on his face, and said:

    “So you were here… foolish brains…”

    The old blind man was startled.

    “Wait, didn’t you already come just now?” he quickly asked.

    The golden-haired man’s expression suddenly changed, and he exclaimed joyfully: “I feel my subordinate—he’s here—haha, it came so easily—”

    He turned to leave.

    “Wait a moment, save me!” the old blind man quickly said.

    “I never save other people’s prey, because ‘useless’ things are not worth my effort.”

    “You’re just a worthless thing, understand?”

    The golden-haired man said coldly.

    The old blind man was stunned.
