Chapter 1421: Provoker of the Throne

What method could it be?

His mind raced.

Using one singularity to counteract the return of another was the most ideal and clever approach. However, this would still require a massive expenditure of power to resist. Energy loss was inevitable.

"Then, what... what exactly is it...?" Tu Xin's mind surpassed the intellectual limits of the old era, yet it seemed to see nothing. "I must have missed something, I must have overlooked something..."

He stared intently at the Emperor before him. This unfathomable prehistoric being exuded an indescribably strong sense of oppression. He felt an extreme tension, like an ordinary person suddenly facing a tiger, gasping for breath as if suffering from asthma, on the verge of fainting if he couldn't catch his breath. This dizziness was caused by his brain working in severe overdrive.

But even so, his mind was spinning rapidly! He was almost transcending his physical limits, breaking his own shackles.

Boom!! It was as if he had broken through his mental limits. At that moment, his six rapidly spinning brains felt like birds finally released, soaring into the boundless sky with an unprecedented sense of freedom.

Mid-stage Tenth Order Saint. A faint voice emerged in his mind. He had broken through during the battle. The immense pressure, mental calculations, and the precise coordination of his brains seemed to naturally push him to this realm.

Suddenly, his mind reeled. Looking at the singularity, it was as if he saw another possibility beyond normal logic.

"If it were a normal singularity, being sucked into it would surely grind one to dust, then reduce them to the universe's original chaotic matter, which would then scatter with the Big Bang... But what about a *flawed* singularity?"

"I've been stuck in a dead end. I've been treating this flawed singularity as if it were a truly perfect and terrifying one..."

He narrowed his eyes, gazing at that infinitely small point. In his mind's eye, the singularity seemed like an infinitely small sphere with a breach, and that breach appeared to be a separate universe. The opening, like a loophole, was incredibly clear to him at that moment.

"An imperfect singularity, an imperfect singularity! So that's it... so that's it!!" He burst into laughter, his voice filled with an exhilarating sense of relief, like someone who had narrowly escaped death. "I finally understand."

"What have you understood now?" The Emperor was also taken aback. "Tu Xin, it's already outrageous that you managed to devise the first method as if you were cheating. Can you really come up with *another* one? Is that even possible?"

Even Xu Zhi couldn't imagine what method his opponent could use to resolve the current predicament! Even the best method would require energy expenditure to sustain life within the grinding mill; constant energy consumption was inevitable. Xu Zhi simply didn't believe his opponent could come up with any viable solution. And even if he did, what then? It would still consume energy, merely extending the time before he was ground to death. Meanwhile, Xu Zhi, capable of absorbing external energy here, was already in an unassailable position! This was an unparalleled death trap!

"What method do you have? Tell me," the Emperor said softly. "I don't believe your method can save you from this desperate situation."

Tu Xin took a deep breath and declared cheerfully, "Resisting being sucked into the singularity with brute force? Or transforming into a singularity to counter it? These are all foolish paths. Why resist? Wouldn't it be better to just be absorbed into it?"

As soon as Tu Xin spoke, not only other Saints but even the Immortal Saints were dumbfounded. Inside a singularity, one would be crushed into powder, their soul scattered. No one could survive; being absorbed into it meant certain death! This method sounded like a joke.

But Tu Xin paid no mind, stating coolly, "Breaking the unbelievable norms of thought, transcending normal logic, and finding life in death—that is the true method of breaking through... Otherwise, you wouldn't be using this tactic against me."

Tu Xin's lips curled into a smirk, and he said in a low voice: "That singularity is flawed; it has a breach. This means there's a glimmer of life within it. Staying inside that breach of the singularity and then exiting with the Big Bang—that is the most perfect solution!"

"And this is the advanced second method. Before, it was singularity against singularity. Now, it's becoming a part of the singularity to counter it... Of course, this advanced version can only be used on *this specific* flawed singularity!"

The players were dumbfounded. The ordinary Heavenly Saints also froze for a few seconds. Even the Immortal Saints were startled by this line of reasoning. This indeed went beyond normal logic.

However, Tu Xin's more astonishing words followed: "And being able to stay within that singularity's breach is an unimaginably rare and supreme opportunity!"

"Because one cannot survive within a true singularity. Only this *flawed* singularity allows for survival within! Only in this current, imperfect cosmic era can such a scenario appear... And seizing this moment to explore the universe's primordial origins within it is the greatest fortune, capable of leading one directly to the mental cultivation of the Eleventh Order!"

He stated that this was the true method of simulation. Simulating the breakthrough process to the Eleventh Order—as long as one could traverse that singularity, they would be guaranteed to reach the Eleventh Order. In the future, once the time was right and the Gate of the Grand Dao opened, they could immediately break through. Who else in the world could achieve this but him?

Tu Xin continued chillingly, "Furthermore, the benefits don't stop there! Within that singularity, each entry allows for a massive replenishment of chaotic matter and absorption of its most primordial energy, constantly boosting cultivation. This is simply the most perfect training ground, providing countless resources for my Eleventh Order Grand Dao!"

"And this, then, must be why you've always maintained such abundant energy, isn't it??"

As everyone listened to Tu Xin's terrifying analysis, an expression of disbelief appeared on their faces. It was utterly brilliant.

Xu Zhi, who believed he had witnessed countless grand spectacles over the years and was as steady as Mount Tai, was now utterly flabbergasted.

"What kind of monster are you????" Xu Zhi couldn't help but blurt out the question.

He had studied the "Genesis" Dao for an unknown period, yet it seemed he had been a complete amateur, not even knowing how to use it properly? This person arrives and immediately dissects countless mysteries and methods of use, layer by layer, right in front of him? He felt like a bumpkin arriving in the city, listening in utter stupefaction! It was clearly a certain-death situation, yet his opponent could survive and find a way out. It completely overturned his worldview!!!

"What kind of monster am I?" Tu Xin snorted coldly, staring at the man before him, his expression growing increasingly grim. "You're the most terrifying monster, aren't you?"

"I said before that this was a great opportunity, and now I realize it even more! But you are colder and more unconventional than anyone else... intending to kill us with this! You truly are a terrifying, epoch-making villain, rarely seen throughout history."

"Too bad, I still saw through you." Tu Xin said softly, "It's clear that you're simulating the Eleventh Order realm here, but you failed to kill me. Instead, you gave me this opportunity, which is your greatest loss. From now on, you can only confront me head-on!"

Me, fight you? Xu Zhi fell completely silent at this moment.

This person was utterly terrifying! He had broken out of this trap! Not only could he find the singularity's breach, but he could also absorb power within the flawed singularity. It was clear that this desperate situation was like flat ground to him; it couldn't harm him at all.

"He keeps creating miracles, getting closer to me... Now it's just a head-on clash." Xu Zhi's heart trembled. "And my martial arts aren't perfected yet. If I, at this energy level, truly fight him directly, I might be finished... This is troublesome."

This monster—perhaps nothing in the universe could have trapped him from the very beginning. Not even the universe's most terrifying Genesis could do it!

"Interesting. I clearly had the upper hand, yet he's managed to achieve this..."

At that moment, Xu Zhi felt like a decaying, ancient, eternal being enthroned, an Old God seated in a palace, gazing down at the young, fierce prodigy below, who ceaselessly created miracles, drawing ever closer to him.
