Chapter 489 The Divine Axe Destroys the World and the Fall of the Ancient God

Chapter 488

Deep within the dimensional microcosm, Rosen's Doomsday Lance relentlessly fired, constantly repelling the Chaos God.

However, even though the Chaos Saint God's primordial body was constantly being torn apart by the Doomsday Holy Spear, he still used every means to get close to Rosen.

Rosen kept increasing the distance, but the Dimensional Saint God kept folding space to help the Chaos Saint God close the distance.

Although the ancient gods repeatedly came to Rosen's rescue, they never joined forces with Rosen to fight the Chaos God.

Unlike the Chaos God and the Dimensional God who truly joined forces this time, Rosen and the Ancient God harbored ill intentions towards each other. Rosen wanted to use the Chaos God and the others to eliminate the Ancient God and obtain the Heaven-Opening Axe, while the Ancient God also wanted to weaken and severely injure Rosen as much as possible.

They kept coming to Rosen's rescue simply because they didn't want Rosen to lose too badly.

After all, if Rosen were to die, even the Ancient God alone would find it difficult to withstand the combined attack of the Chaos Gods.

Rosen is now quite certain that the ancient god's axe of creation might be even stronger than it appears.

Otherwise, faced with the blockade of the dimensional microcosm, the ancient god shouldn't have just sat and watched the Chaos Saint fight to the death. Obviously, He was fully confident that He could escape from the dimensional microcosm, which is why He dared to sit on the sidelines and watch the two fight until they were both exhausted.

If Rosen could understand this, the Chaos Gods certainly could too.

Therefore, he clearly noticed that the Dimensional Saint God was beginning to fold dimensions layer by layer in the Dimensional Microcosm, further sealing off spacetime. Gradually, the Dimensional Saint God even stopped using the Dimensional Microcosm to help the Chaos Saint God approach him.

The ancient god also noticed the changes in the dimensional microcosm, and after weighing the options, the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe locked onto Rosen and fell from afar.

Almost instantly, the immortal will of the Ancient God and Rosen was simultaneously extinguished by one hundred points.

The Chaos Saint God seized the opportunity and used Chaos Return to Ruin to continuously block the barrage of Doomsday Holy Lance and approach Rosen.

Before Rosen could even lay a hand on the Ancient God, the Ancient God had already preemptively struck Rosen deadly.

Clearly, the current level of spacetime lockdown in the dimensional microcosm is not enough to stop the ancient gods, but it is uncertain if the dimensional holy gods will continue to strengthen the lockdown. That's why the ancient gods couldn't sit still and decided to personally intervene to help the chaos holy gods get rid of Rosen as soon as possible.

Faced with deadly threats from both internal and external forces, Rosen released himself into the universe and hid inside.

The Chaos Saint God immediately prepared to use the Cosmic Origin Seed to pursue and kill his opponent into the universe, but was blocked by the universe itself.

This result momentarily stunned even the Chaos God.

These are very special primordial relics in the universe, whose greatest purpose is to make it easier to control the new universe.

However, the defenses between universes are also very strong, and even true primordial life forms would find them difficult to break.

In the eyes of the Chaos God, the Heavenly God could never completely control the universe.

Because there are three other cosmic origin seeds, which are respectively in the hands of Him, the dimensional holy god, and the ancient god.

This is also why the universe fell into the hands of the Heavenly and Earthly Gods, and the Dimensional Gods were not particularly anxious.

However, it now appears that the gods and deities of heaven and earth have clearly used some means to completely control the universe.

It would be very difficult to kill the Heavenly and Earthly Saints in a short time, so the Chaos Saint immediately changed his target and prepared to eliminate the Ancient Gods first.

The ancient god had no choice but to destroy the dimensional microcosm and escape. His axe of creation still contained the undying will of the Chaos God. If he simply tore through spacetime, the Chaos God would lock and interfere, and the dimensional God would also do everything in his power to seal off the dimensional microcosm.

Therefore, from the very beginning, the ancient gods' true trump card for escaping was the destruction of dimensional microcosms.

The ancient god's microcosm flowed through his arm and merged into the Heaven-Opening Axe. The ancient god's microcosm instantly collapsed, forming the power to destroy the universe. This power to destroy the universe was more than ten times stronger after being poured into the Heaven-Opening Axe. With a single swing of the axe, the dimensional cube and the dimensional microcosm were split in two.

With a gentle swing of its axe, the ancient god tore through space and time, disappearing into the rift.

Rosen also seized the opportunity to close the interdimensional portal that opened between universes and distance himself from the constantly collapsing dimensional microcosm.

Everyone underestimated the ancient god's axe that could split the heavens and earth. They thought that the axe's ability to tear apart spacetime in the endless depths was already terrifying, and its ability to kill a thousand enemies from a distance while injuring a thousand of its own and annihilating an indestructible will was already terrifying. But no one expected that the most terrifying thing about the axe was its ability to destroy the world.

The destructive power displayed by that axe strike was probably something that even few primordial beings could withstand.

At this moment, the one who regrets it the most is probably the Dimensional Saint.

It's not a big deal that the dimensional microcosm was split in two by the axe of creation, because as long as the material origin that makes up the dimensional microcosm is still there, it is not difficult to rebuild a new dimensional microcosm. What the dimensional saint truly lost was the original sacred object, the dimensional cube.

Even if the Dimensional Cube could be repaired, it certainly wouldn't be possible in a short time.

Therefore, after the Dimensional Holy God expanded his domain to envelop the remnants of the Dimensional Microcosm, he directly vanished into darkness, far away from the Chaos Holy God.

This is the time when the Dimensional God is at its weakest, and what He is most wary of now is the Chaos God.

Rosen released the Doomsday Ark, pondering his hunting target.

Since the Chaos God's strength was not damaged at all, hunting the Chaos God was the first option to be ruled out.

Although the remaining dimensional saints suffered heavy losses, their primordial holy bodies and undying wills remained intact, making them easy to defeat but extremely difficult to kill.

As expected, the ancient gods are the easiest to kill, even though their primordial holy bodies are not perfect, just like his.

However, the Heaven-Opening Axe is too powerful; the ancient god can escape at any time, so we need to find a way to trap and kill Him.

Rosen piloted the Doomsday Ark to search for the Ancient Gods, but he couldn't find them no matter what he did.

This made him realize that the ancient gods were actually avoiding him.
This is abnormal; although they stab each other in the back, it doesn't prevent them from continuing to cooperate.

Only with the Doomsday Ark and the Axe of Creation can their chances of catching up with the new universe increase.

The ancient god wields the axe that splits the heavens and earth, so he shouldn't be worried about being harmed by him alone.

Therefore, there is only one possibility: the ancient god may have destroyed the dimensional microcosm with ease on the surface, but in reality, he paid a considerable price and no longer had the strength to destroy a second microcosm with the Heaven-Opening Axe. That is why he was wary of him and took the initiative to avoid the Ark of Doomsday.

Rosen immediately realized that this was the best opportunity to hunt down the ancient god.

The Ancient God is definitely nearby, because the Ancient God is only wary of him now because he is not at his peak. He needs to recover and ride his Doomsday Ark to chase the new universe, so the Ancient God will definitely not hide too far to avoid getting separated.

Rosen activated the Eye of Night, quietly sensing the seemingly endless primordial power of the deep space.

It even released countless night parasitic flowers, which quietly scattered throughout the endless deep space.

Under the cover of the power of the primordial night, it was almost impossible for the ancient gods to sense the Night Parasite.

Conversely, once the ancient god gets close to the Nightfall Parasite, it becomes difficult for him to hide.

As the Ark of Doomsday continued its pursuit of the new universe, the Night Parasites that were constantly spreading behind it soon discovered the spacetime rifts torn open by the Ancient Gods. After several such encounters, they were able to roughly determine the distance at which the Ancient Gods would open a spacetime rift.

The moment the Nightfall Parasite discovered the spacetime rift again, Rosen disappeared from the Doomsday Ark and appeared near the spacetime rift.

The moment the ancient god stepped out of the space-time rift, Rosen had already unfolded the Creator Domain, which merged with the Miracle Star Sea.

Although the ancient god had already prepared to tear open the spacetime rift and escape, Rosen had already taken the next step faster by integrating the Root Universe into his domain. After sending the ancient god into the Root Universe, he immediately disappeared into the universe, forming multiple spacetime blockades.

Rosen doesn't have a Dimensional Cube, but the spacetime blockade between universes is even more powerful than a Dimensional Cube.

With the counterfeit universe source seed transformed from the original source seed, plus the parasitic control of the immortal source seed over all things, he forcibly refined the universe. Although he could not fully unleash the universe's full power, it was enough to prevent the ancient god's axe from tearing open the spacetime rift.

Unless the Ancient God can unleash that devastating axe strike once again, he will have no chance of escaping the Origin Universe.

The ancient god's axe, wielding the power to cleave space and time several times, could not escape Rosen's cosmos. The ancient god's cosmos, which He had to destroy to unleash the world-destroying power of the axe, was now being rebuilt, but a complete rebuild would take at least several hundred years. This meant He would be trapped by Rosen for hundreds of years.

If you can survive, you will live; if you can't, you will die at Rosen's hands.

Without hesitation, the ancient god took out the blue star, which had been shrunk into a sphere, and then hid in the half-finished microcosm deep within the blue star.

He paid a heavy price to obtain Blue Star from the Dimensional God. In the eyes of the Dimensional God, Blue Star was just a special extraordinary star of the Eternal level, but in His eyes, Blue Star's value was no less than that of the Heaven-Opening Axe.

The Heaven-Opening Axe contains the power of both destruction and creation. To activate its power of destruction, one must absorb at least the power of destruction from the collapse of one's own universe.

As for the primordial power of the Heaven-Opening Axe, the ancient gods have yet to figure out how to activate it.
However, Blue Star is the only existence that can arouse the power of creation. In fact, Blue Star's defensive capabilities have grown in tandem with the growth of its internal universe. Today, Blue Star's defense is in no way inferior to defensive primordial artifacts.

Rosen brandished the Undying Holy Sword, concentrating all his power to pierce the blue star's celestial body time and time again.

Even if everything on the surface of Earth is instantly annihilated, Earth's inherent spacetime cycle will immediately restart the surface. All the damage from the Undying Holy Sword cannot penetrate the restart of Earth's surface to reach the unfinished microcosm within.

Rosen attempted to cross the time loop and enter the interior of Earth by using a time-source seed originating from Earth.

But it was no use; the undying will of the ancient gods had completely taken control of the spacetime cycle on the surface of Earth.

Rosen could only imprison the Undying Source Seed in the spacetime cycle on the surface of Blue Star, forcibly competing with the Ancient God for control of the spacetime cycle. Although the Undying Source Seed had a huge advantage in this regard, it would still take at least tens of thousands of years to completely expel the Ancient God's undying will.

That's already pretty good. At least he could forcibly seize the cycle of time and space, but the ancient gods didn't have the ability to forcibly seize the Ark of Doomsday.

However, tens of thousands of years have passed, and the ancient god must have long since recovered and destroyed the primordial microcosm with a single axe blow.

Therefore, the struggle between the Undying Source Seed and the Ancient God for the cycle of time and space is just an illusion. The real purpose of the constant collision between the Undying Source Seed and the Ancient God's undying will is to silently send the Nightfall Parasite Flower into the Ancient God's memory, and then dismantle the Ancient God's memory through the method of personality deduction.

Rosen's eternal will transformed into an indestructible will, a transformation that only began with the help of the world of memories, a transformation that involved a near-death experience.

The ancient god's eternal will transformed into an indestructible will, relying solely on a qualitative change caused by a quantitative change.

In the past, Rosen believed that the ancient gods transformed into all things after falling into slumber in order to heal the injuries that the World Tree had caused to them.

Later, when he learned that the Ancient Gods could stand on equal footing with the Dimensional Gods, he understood that the World Tree, which had been reborn in the Ancient Gods' world after its fall, could not possibly harm the Ancient Gods again, let alone force them to abandon the old world and create a new one.

The ancient gods created a new world and transformed into all things, their true purpose being to strengthen their eternal will by harnessing the power of all living beings.

Then, quantitative change leads to qualitative change, which naturally transforms the eternal will into the indestructible will.

In order to strengthen their eternal will, the ancient gods even transformed their divine essence into all things.

In the world of the ancient gods, all life forms originating from the divine essence of the ancient gods will have their divine essence become part of the ancient gods again after death. This certainly makes the ancient gods' foundation stronger and stronger, but the memories originating from all living beings also make the ancient gods' memories extremely complex.

In order to maintain the purity of their own consciousness, the ancient gods could only erase the memories belonging to all living beings.

But memories are something that can never be completely erased, no matter how much you try to delete them.

Everything that has existed leaves a trace, and what Rosen needs to do now is to help the ancient god retrieve these memories that He has deleted.

Then, under the cover of the parasitic flowers of night, these memories form the independent personalities of ancient gods.

A single independent personality cannot overcome the main personality of the ancient god, but countless independent personalities are enough to fight each other within the ancient god's undying will. If the control of the time-space cycle is seized at this time, the ancient god's undying will will have no other outcome but defeat.

As the years passed, the ancient god felt more and more uneasy.

Over the years, Rosen and He have been constantly vying for control over the cycle of time and space. Although they have gained some benefits, the gains have been too small. Based on His understanding of Rosen, He knew that once a path becomes impassable, Rosen would not stubbornly continue down that path.

Therefore, this must only be Rosen's overt offensive; Rosen must have other methods up his sleeve.

However, no matter how hard the ancient god searched, he could not find Rosen's secret methods.

Until this day, the memories within the ancient god's undying will suddenly sensed countless different personalities formed from different memories, all of which appeared out of thin air and competed with Him for control of the undying will. Although each personality was very weak, it was extremely difficult to eliminate all of them.

The ancient god realized that this was Rosen's secret method, using different personalities at the level of memory to weaken his control over the immortal will.

There was no other way; the ancient god could only do his utmost to eradicate those memory personalities that were hostile to Him.

Rosen's Undying Source Species seized the opportunity to rapidly take control of the time-space cycle. The Ancient God's master personality manipulated the Undying Will to resist the Undying Source Species, but those out-of-control memory personalities instead manipulated the Undying Will to voluntarily relinquish control of the time-space cycle.

In less than a year, Rosen had completely taken control of the spacetime cycle on the surface of Earth.

The Undying Origin Seed continued its journey deeper, beginning to contend with the Ancient Gods for control of the Earth's crust and the unfinished microcosm deep within the planet.

The ancient god's undying will was gradually defeated. After destroying the last rebellious personality and erasing the memories of all the rebellious personalities, the ancient god had lost control of the Earth's crust and was left with only control of the unfinished microcosm within it.

But how could a half-finished microcosm possibly withstand Rosen's Root Microcosm?

Rosen himself directly entered the Blue Star's microcosm, and the Undying Holy Sword slashed directly at the Ancient God himself.

The Chaos Saint God could block the Undying Saint Sword with the Chaos Return to Nothingness, but the Ancient God could not block the Undying Saint Sword at all. The Heaven-Opening Divine Axe failed to block once and the Undying Saint Sword split the Eternal Saint Body in two. Before the Eternal Saint Body could regenerate, it was cut into mincemeat by the Undying Saint Sword.

Even without the primordial body, the body of a sinful life can remain immortal and indestructible due to its undying will.

However, the body's recovery speed is far slower than that of the original holy body. Therefore, when faced with the continuous damage from the eternal life of the Holy Temple, the body can only fall into an endless cycle of regeneration and destruction. Once destroyed, it is difficult to fully recover and launch an effective counterattack. It can only passively take hits for a long time and eventually be sealed away.

The ancient gods are in the same situation now; their eternal bodies have been destroyed, and they have fallen and cannot stand up again.

For every bit of restoration, Rosen destroyed a bit; the ancient god could only temporarily abandon the regeneration of the eternal holy body by merging his undying will into the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe.

Without the Eternal Holy Body, the Heaven-Opening Axe, which only attacks and does not defend, has become even more ferocious in its offensive, but its destructive power has been greatly reduced because the Heaven-Opening Axe is now only releasing its own destructive power, having lost the power enhancement brought by the Eternal Holy Body.

No matter how strong the undying will is, its power will be greatly reduced without the Eternal Holy Body.

Even though the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe severely damaged Rosen's Eternal Holy Body several times, it was still gradually suppressed by the Undying Holy Sword until it was gradually suppressed and sealed by the Miracle Star Sea. However, this only defeated the Ancient God, and it was still a long way from killing the Ancient God.

Rosen sat cross-legged in front of the sealed Heaven-Opening Axe, where the undying will of the ancient god was now hiding.

With the help of the Nightfall Parasitic Flower left inside the ancient god's undying will, his undying will began to entangle with the ancient god's undying will. After transforming his own undying will into one with the ancient god's by using the Myriad Transformations Sacred Technique, the two undying wills began to intertwine and become inseparable.

When Rosen seized the cycle of time and space and the crust of Blue Star, he considered assimilating each other's immortal will through the Holy Law of Myriad Transformations.

However, a fake is a fake. While the Myriad Transformations Sacred Art can indeed deceive people, it's one thing for a counterfeit to bully those weaker than itself, but to think that it can devour the true immortal will of an ancient god with a fake immortal will is wishful thinking.

At this moment, with the undying wills of both sides entangled, the undying will of the ancient god clearly held an absolute advantage.

However, Rosen's memories have already begun to clash with the memories of the ancient gods within the undying will that is assimilated and entangled between the two sides.

Whoever has the stronger memory has a greater advantage.

At the beginning, Rosen was at a complete disadvantage in the conflict at the memory level, but as time went on, the Deductive Reasoning began to revive those memories that had been deleted by the Ancient God under the cover of the Night Parasite Flower, creating countless memory personalities to challenge the Ancient God's main personality.

The outcome of the war at the level of memory begins to reverse little by little, with more and more of the ancient god's main personality's memories being scattered and erased.

Until the last bit of the original personality's memory was covered up by the Night Parasite, Rosen began to destroy all the remaining memories of the Ancient God using the method of deductive reasoning. After all the memories of the Ancient God's personality were erased, his memories successfully took over the Ancient God's immortal will.

Rosen did not integrate these immortal wills; once the external immortal wills were integrated, they would become a hidden danger sooner or later.

He chose to shatter the ancient god's undying will, completely severing the ancient god's chance of resurrection.
