Infinite Reincarnation: I am the Monster.

Chapter 503 Not the Enemy, [The Human Instrumentality Project]!
Bai Cangshu confirmed once again that this world was indeed a derivative world, but the guy in front of him, those eyes, and that death threat emanating from his immortality that could ignore him...

Without a doubt, this should indeed be Ryougi Shiki.

Bai Cangshu was only slightly surprised before his figure floated down from the street lamp.

Since he knew he was entering the Fate world, Bai Cangshu had naturally considered the situation of this complex worldview.

"You know me too?"

The woman's voice didn't contain much surprise; instead, it carried a sense of "I just realized that."

Bai Cangshu closed his eyes and then opened them again, transforming into a shape resembling blue sky and white clouds, with intense soul fluctuations emanating from his body.

His lips unconsciously parted, as if an endless greed was about to awaken.

The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception... even in the infinite dimension, it can be considered one of the top-tier Mystic Eyes.

If I can kill this woman here, given my luck, there's a good chance I'll get it.

and……

Ryougi Shiki's Mystic Eyes are powerful, but what supports that terrifying instant-death power is only her physical and sword skills, which are just above the superhuman level.

The various techniques and secret manuals of the so-called four exorcising schools are not so terrifying if you exclude the Demon Eye.

As a martial artist who has perfected his physical techniques to an extremely high level, Hakusou is confident that he can avoid Ryougi Shiki's sword, unless...

"Yes, I know you. To be precise, I like your eyes. If it's convenient..."

Bai Cangshu is never one to hesitate or stagnate; once he has a desire for something, he will take action to obtain it.

The moment his voice rang out, there was no sign of the ground cracking, and the air only made a soft "poof" sound. He appeared beside Ryougi Shiki as if he were a phantom.

With palms folded like knives, an overwhelming aura of pitch-black power instantly enveloped them, while behind his elbows, a purplish-red killing intent rippled.

hum~
It sounded like the chirping of cicadas, or like the fluttering of countless flying insects.

With a base strength and constitution boost of 50+, Bai Cangshu's hand-blade attack is already more lethal than that of ordinary sword-wielding reincarnators. With the added boost of domineering aura and killing intent, he can easily kill high-level reincarnators.

Ryougi Shiki's physical abilities are only at the level of an ordinary person. Even with a powerful weapon like the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, she would have no chance of survival given the absolute difference in speed and strength.

puff!
The blazing white energy wave, like a surging sea, crashed through Ryougi Shiki's body. She calmly raised her short sword and held it in front of her.

Bai Cangshu's hand remained quietly in front of the short sword.

The force emanating from Bai Cangshu's jet-black hand blade, carrying the air, was like a blazing white sword aura, which, using the residual force of the strike, directly collided with the short sword.

The short sword remained motionless, as if it hadn't encountered any obstacle.

The force and impact, enough to shatter a building, were smoothly sliced ​​through and disappeared into the alley behind Ryougi Shiki from both sides of her body.

The fiery white air still roared, whipping up a violent wind that made Ryougi Shiki's short hair and Shirakami's long hair dance wildly.

Click.

Bai Cangshu stepped back half a step with his left foot, and the ground was instantly shattered by the force he released.

The six eyes in his pupils seemed to reveal an expression of admiration.

"It was you..."

Bai Cangshu looked at the woman in the red coat; she seemed to have a slight smile on her lips, but her expression remained calm.

At this moment, that calm smile held a completely different meaning in Hakuso's eyes. Ryougi Shiki, even with her Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, was indeed no match for Hakuso, but the [Root Form] was entirely different.

In the Type-Moon universe, almost all magicians and sorcerers pursue a power called the "Root".

The root is the beginning of everything, the truth, and the synthesis of all factors in this world, where the cause of everything in the world is hidden.

The slight vortexes emanating from the 【Vortex of Origin】 constitute all the magic in this world.

Only those who reach the root of the matter can comprehend the true principles.

Even setting aside the philosophical desire to explore truth and the origins of the world, those who have reached the source and returned are able to master incredible [magic].

Note that this "magic" is the definition of magic in the Type-Moon world, which is different from the concept of "magic" used by reincarnators in other worlds, where all spells based on magical power are called "magic".

In the Type-Moon universe, there is a clear distinction between magic and sorcery. Simply put, anything that can achieve its effect through any non-mystical method cannot be called magic, but only sorcery.

For example, the various magic tricks used today, such as cutting magic, fire magic, and freezing magic, are all achieved through technological advancements. Humans can now use other methods to achieve the same results, such as burning, freezing, and cutting.

Therefore, the only means to achieve this effect through magic is magic.

Magic is a miracle that can absolutely not be achieved through any other means.

Under this standard, magic and sorcery in this world are not static. In ancient times, human technology and cognition were very backward, so there were a lot of miracles and magic. But with the development of technology, more and more magic has become sorcery, and mystery has begun to fade.

Today, only five forms of magic completely transcend magic and touch upon the root of all things.

The first method is creation from nothing;
The second method is parallel world interference;

The Third Law, the Materialization of the Soul (Heaven's Cup);

The fourth method is to deny reality and completely conceal one's own existence;

The Fifth Law is probably a kind of magic that can even destroy time and order.

The reason these kinds of magic are magic is that these abilities either touch the root or are magic obtained by a magician after entering the root; they are powers derived from the truth of the world.

Unfortunately, the woman in front of Hakusou, Ryougi Shiki, is actually one of the very few beings in the Type-Moon world connected to the Root. Or rather, Ryougi Shiki herself is a being that flows from the Root.

Once the true personality, known as the "Root," awakens, the other party will transform into something possessing almost the same characteristics as the Root.

"Don't mistake your enemy for an evil... savior..."

Ryougi Shiki, or rather, the Root Shiki, walked past Hakusoju step by step, neither intending to fight him nor offering any explanation.

Bai Cangshu turned his head slightly and watched this guy, whose physical body was no more than that of an ordinary person, walk past him with those precious demonic eyes.

But he opened his right hand but ultimately did not make a move. The light in his six eyes had also gone out. He recalled the scene that had just appeared before him in that instant.

He chopped out with a hand chop, not because he noticed the opponent's short knife in front of him and thought that continuing to chop off his own arm would result in him being "killed" first.

Instead, during his strike, a terrifying scene appeared before his eyes. In the scene, he was standing in the empty sky above Fuyuki City, where all the humans below had completely disappeared, and everyone had turned into liquid and merged together.

In the sky, a huge void appeared, and the source of the world, known as the [Vortex of Origin], seemed to appear above the void. A woman wearing a white robe with gold trim was slowly passing through the void and entering the source.

The scene was so real that the silent world made Bai Cangshu stop.

More importantly, he roughly understood what the image represented...

It's not sorcery, not magic, and not a sacrifice.

That is the ultimate pursuit of another world—the Human Instrumentality Project!
