Chapter 1457: The World, Godless

Tu Xin stood up again, his body battered to the extreme. He had never dreamed of such an incredible turn of events. His opponent was like a monster; could they truly improve to this extent in a dream? He was completely questioning everything he knew.

Emperor Zun was indeed the most terrifying existence from the prehistoric era of the ancient universe!

"But who would have thought there was also a parasite here, feigning death in secret and still secretly learning my martial arts," Tu Xin said, his gaze fixed coldly on the Mother of Insects.

Tu Xin was utterly disgusted, scoffing, "As expected, you are rotten to the core. You secretly learn others' combat techniques without ever innovating or creating your own..." He despised such people the most! True powerhouses, like him and Emperor Zun, should forge their own martial arts, fight relying on themselves, and act with integrity. This was the spirit true powerhouses should possess.

As for the scoundrels before him...

"You deserve to rot," Tu Xin scoffed coldly.

The Mother of Insects didn't mind. After all, having secretly learned the fruits of others' labor and wisdom, how could anyone expect a pleasant reception? This was only natural. Emperor Zun, however, was broad-minded. Though she had secretly learned his Nine Revolutions Profound Art and various martial arts, he treated it with equanimity, showing his magnanimity surpassed that of his opponent. Emperor Zun's generosity earned him admiration from both sides, even his enemies. Such charisma was naturally formidable.

But with thick skin, they said with utmost sincerity, "Your Excellency, we secretly learned your martial arts precisely to help you defeat this terrifying prehistoric being!"

"You feigned death nearby and stole my martial arts just to help me defeat Emperor Zun?" Tu Xin glanced at them. "And before that, you were monitoring me as I developed my techniques in the Realm of Longevity? Now that I think about it, you clearly intended to secretly learn my martial arts; you were scheming from the very beginning."

The Mother of Insects' words were exceptionally sincere and convincing. "After all, Your Excellency, alone, you could not possibly withstand such an ancient forbidden entity. Only by us secretly learning, accumulating power, and then joining forces is there a glimmer of hope."

Tu Xin, after all, was not a pedantic person. His expression shifted several times before he finally nodded. "Very well, then, we shall join forces."

Though he was displeased, if it were only him, a simple personal victory or defeat could be met with integrity; at most, it would cost him his life. However, behind him lay the hope of the entire new universe's race. While he could certainly afford to lose as an individual, he carried the burden of his entire species.

"Although I do not wish to be corrupt, I am forced to resort to such despicable means," he muttered, frowning, and finally sighed. "After all, I am not alone; I have too many ties." He looked at Emperor Zun, sighed, and said with admiration, "What Your Excellency just said is true. It is too difficult to avoid corruption. Throughout the entire universe, past and present, perhaps only you alone have achieved it."

Emperor Zun nodded faintly, like the prehistoric Celestial Emperor of the ancient universe, looking down upon the two ants before him. "Indeed, everyone will eventually corrupt. To become like me, it's rare for such an existence to appear throughout all time..."

After speaking, Emperor Zun took another step forward and slowly looked at the two. "You have finally reached your most brilliant era. With no further progress possible, it means your final battle is at hand. Are you ready? Let us decide the victor at this very moment."

Both their expressions tightened. As expected... Emperor Zun had been deliberately guiding them, intending to defeat them in this way. Now, the final act had arrived, for they had reached the strongest realm they could possibly attain!

"Come," Emperor Zun said, slowly extending a hand in a gesture of invitation while still holding his hands behind his back.

"Please!""Please!"

The two bowed slowly, filled with profound admiration. Emperor Zun's charisma in battle had completely captivated them. Such a proud enemy had given them ample opportunity to fight at their peak, in their most brilliant era. If they still couldn't win... then they would lose wholeheartedly convinced.

"Dreams, future, everything will be written by us!"

Tu Xin and the Mother of Insects, both resolute and decisive, instantly joined forces, exploding with their full power as great beings who commanded the ultimate forces of the universe.

Boom... rumble!!

The three ancient entities, entangled, transformed into three colossal phantoms. Suddenly, the battle intensified, and the three figures completely vanished. They transformed into an endless rain of quantum particles. It was as if two cosmic singularities had exploded, like three ripples spreading in water, interfering and intertwining with each other. In the eyes of all the powerhouses outside, the figures had become utterly indistinguishable!

Whoosh—

They had merged into a magnificent, endlessly brilliant super star cluster vortex.

"It's so beautiful!" Countless people exclaimed in awe. At the same time, countless others clenched their fists, their gazes sharply fixed on the distance.

Boom!

The three entities directly broke out of Medusa's high-held Genesis Great Vortex. They had already mastered singularities, and this forbidden technique could no longer stop them; entering and exiting was like walking on level ground.

Crack!

They arrived in the outer universe. Stepping on the Realm of Longevity, the tenth continent, the three figures instantly dispersed like dust in the wind, transforming into an endless rain of colored light. The entire land of the Realm of Longevity shook violently. This universe, as if a mere patch of soil, saw its ground collapse and mountains leveled.

"Let's fight up there," they said coldly, then surged directly into the sky, where they could slowly float above the Sea of Chaos, like a massive colorful cloud, pervading the universe.

"Is this what the ultimate powerhouses are like? Great beings who have comprehended singularities and the true Dao? They have actually transcended the universe, fighting in the void high above the cosmos!"

"They stand above the Sea of Chaos, in the distant sky!"

At this moment, throughout the land of Chaos Heaven, the new life hiding in the Sea of Chaos, the various small forces from myriad worlds that had fled, and all sorts of ancient powers and saints, all felt the sky vibrating! A power unseen in the universe for 14 billion years! A great ultimate force, surpassing the limits of the universe's tenth-order saints, belonging only to the eleventh order. A magnificent, overwhelming force was battling in the sky.

For 14 billion years of the universe's existence, there had never been clouds in the sky above the land, but now, it seemed to reflect a cloud of colorful light. Reshaping heaven and earth, it was breathtakingly beautiful. The great rule-bound entities outside the universe watched intently, yet within the nine great universes, countless planets and galaxies remained unaware that the fate of the cosmos was about to be decided at this very moment.

Bang!!!

The next second, the clouds in the sky vanished. It was as if an unknown ancient meteorite had fallen to the earth, landing upon the Sea of Chaos, like a beautiful comet with a tail. Everyone knew that was a singularity. However, that comet, having fallen into the Sea of Chaos, rose again, soaring into the sky, but it was clear it was nearing exhaustion.

"Who will win?""I don't know! These great beings exist on such a dimension that we can't even perceive their combat speed!""It must be us new beings; this is our future!""It has to be!!"

Countless people stared intently at the sky, anxiously awaiting the final outcome. The new beings simply refused to believe their king would lose; this was their great era. "The grand cosmic trend cannot be changed, though minor details might."

"No one can stop the cosmic trend," someone declared with a deep breath and a low growl.

But the next second, everyone froze in stunned silence.

Rumble!

They watched as two beautiful comets completely fell from the sky. "Which of the two entities fell?" Just as everyone was filled with doubt...

Whoosh—

The colorful evening clouds in the sky drifted slowly, becoming even more ethereal. The aurora painted a beautiful picture across the heavens, unlike anything seen throughout history, then transformed into a message suspended above the universe.

"In this cosmic epoch, I shall be unrivaled, suppressing all eternity alone!"

Accompanied by a cold, majestic voice that shook heaven and earth, and under the stunned gazes of all, it seemed as though an invisible giant hand smoothed the firmament in the sky, then elegantly brushed out bold characters with sweeping ink strokes:

Peerless through all ages.No god exists in this world.

On the firmament, the beautiful aurora reflected these eight powerful characters. The lingering glow of the two beautiful comets that had fallen seemed to transform into two rainbows, supporting the miraculous text, before slowly dissipating along with the characters moments later.
