Under the Red Dragon.

Chapter 590 The Ultimate Power
What is true power?
Some say that true power lies in manipulating the stars with a mere gesture, holding each material world as a plaything in the palm of one's hand.

Some say that true power allows one to travel to heaven in the morning and to the abyss in the evening, and to traverse infinite distances with just a thought.

But for Charon, true power does not fade with changes in the rules of the universe, nor with differences in the world.

The rules of different universes are very different. Even within the same universe, the rules of different material planes and various higher outer planes are not the same.

But true power will not be diminished by the barriers of time and space; true power is what can be effective under all rules.

Even with the power of Mogyes, the king of the multi-armed giants, who abhorred the blood of the Titans, and was capable of piercing through material space and shattering the void in the present world, he was still far from reaching the standard of Charon Gogmora.

On the ultimate path of power, Dragon Emperor Charon Gogmora and the multi-armed giant king Mogyes are companions, as well as friends who are both teachers and friends.

The starry sky is boundless.

Those beings who fail to reach the legendary realm cannot find a balanced threshold in the starry sky within a coordinate system where their own consciousness is confused about up, down, left, and right. Therefore, for many mortal beings, the starry sky is fraught with endless dangers.

But for the multi-armed giants and the first dragon supreme beings, there are perhaps many powerful beings and creatures in the vast expanse of space that are stronger than them.

But as long as the hatred of the Titans' blood and the First Dragon Sovereign are determined to leave, even if gods descend to earth and fall into the mortal realm, which is separated from the astral plane, nothing can stop these two kings from leaving.

Vast, boundless stars and mortal matter planes hang in the starry sky, eternally revolving according to the laws and trajectories of the universe itself.

Compared to the boundless starry sky, even stars that are thousands of times larger than those in the world of Ekania, even Lady Suren's precious moon, even the sun, the embodiment of the power of the Sun God's domain—the representative of the stars—are as insignificant as an egg.

Above the stars, which resembled eggs dyed in various colors, an ancient giant, hundreds of feet tall, with four arms and four heads, walked through the void.

This multi-armed giant, hundreds of feet tall, was cast from steel as if it were made from mountains. Its taut muscles undulated like mountain ridges, and its bone plates carried the mysterious aura of time.

Even though this multi-armed giant was as tall as a mountain, it could easily disperse the storms in the starry sky with a mere gesture.

But compared to the enormous star that this giant was passing by, such a powerful creature was like an insignificant ant passing by a mountain.

And on the shoulder of this terrifying ancient giant stood a gigantic roc.

This ancient roc has golden eyes and jade claws, and although it is a hundred meters long, it stands as if it were ill.

One of the jade-colored steel claws retracted, while the other gripped firmly on the giant's shoulder blade, which resembled a mountain ridge. The giant lowered its head, drowsy.

But its golden scales, like a small sun, cast layers of golden light on the dim starry sky, illuminating many unseen dangers within it.

"Even the life of a god is not truly immortal, and even the power of a god is not something that can transcend time and space and remain unchanged forever."

The Primordial Roc, the incarnation of the Dragon Emperor, stood on the shoulder of the multi-armed giant. Its golden eyes occasionally swept over the countless stars that the multi-armed giant had traversed through space, while it conversed with the blood of the Primordial Giant, who had become the Dragon Emperor's mount.

The universe contains countless mysterious spaces and nodes.

Many mysterious nodes exist in many worlds, not only as checkpoints connecting different dimensions, but also as hubs connecting different eras.

Many powerful legendary mages were able to use the magic of time travel to easily cross the barriers of time through these nodes, traveling to the past and future to explore the wisdom and knowledge they sought.

The purpose of Mogeyes and the Dragon Emperor leaving the world of Ekania and traveling through the starry sky was to find the mysterious node in this universe that intersects with other universes.

That mysterious node, which is the passage through which numerous other gods and evil spirits, who were lurking in the core of the spiritual realm of the world of Ekania, descended into this universe, having lain on the primordial goddess Ekania and corrupted and devoured her.

Just as geese leave their traces, for Kalon, by accurately grasping the aura and characteristics of those evil gods during his long-term harassment of them, he could find their original origins.

Karon's battles with those evil gods weren't just about harassing and disgusting them, although that was one of the great red dragon's wicked pleasures.

Raven, the little elf, was well aware of the great red dragon's wicked sense of humor, so she often jokingly said that Emperor Goggmora was more like a great evil god in the material world than those evil gods.

Because this big red dragon can do some unbelievable things because of its own whims.

However, Karon knew that these alien gods could not be easily dealt with in the world of Ekania.

Even the gods above the stars don't have a good solution for these alien gods, but perhaps they can find a corresponding countermeasure and solution in the universe where those evil gods originated.

For Mogeyes, this journey was the path to discovering the ultimate mystery of true power in the world.

True ultimate power is not merely physical strength, but a great power that encompasses the mysteries of time and space, penetrating all obstacles of time and space without moving or changing.

To master such power, one must have a profound grasp and understanding of time and space. Therefore, embarking on such a journey through the universe with Caron Gogmora is not only a trip, but also a process of seeking the Dharma and creating the Way.

boom,
Mogeyes stepped through the void, traversing dozens of miles in a single step, and plunged directly into the storm sweeping across the surface of this star.

This star is a star where no life or civilization has ever been born, not only because the living environment on its surface and even inside its interior is too harsh, but also because it is a purely gaseous star.

This star is so enormous that it is dozens of times larger than the sun, the star in the star field where the world of Ekania is located.

Terrifying storms swept through the star's atmosphere, reaching the heavens and the earth. To Mogyes and Caron, they appeared as enormous black spots stuck to the star.

As far as the eye could see, there were only rolling, roaring layers of storm clouds, which, together with the deep indigo and cyan storm vortexes of the stars, formed ocean-like textures.

Thick gusts of air swept past Mogyes, the multi-armed giant, like giant hands, tearing at his muscles and energy defenses. The howling wind could even drown out the roar of an adult dragon. Mogyes felt every muscle in his body being impacted and cut by the high-speed airflow, producing a sharp, grinding sound as the air clashed against steel.

“You’re right, Gogmora,”

Mogeyes glanced down at the massive, slowly rotating cyclone beneath his feet. The tearing force within it was enough to easily grind shale steel into powder. The terrifying storm, moving at speeds of tens of miles per second, filled the horizon.

"Every time I ascend to the starry sky and face its vastness, my arrogance becomes more peaceful, and I yearn even more for greater power."

Mogeyes said in a muffled voice, letting the storm, powerful enough to destroy the city, whip sparks fly across his body.

Kalon, in his ancient form as a roc, slightly raised his crest, the golden feathers gleaming behind his head. He drew in invisible, dazzling streams of light from the starry sky, which transformed into an energy protective layer on his feathers, completely isolating him from the storm.

"This star will exhaust its energy in about a hundred trillion years. At that time, not only will these terrifying storms cease in the long river of time, but the life of this star will also come to an end."

Ancient magical runes and mysterious dragon script flowed through Kalon's golden eyes, and information rushed through his brain, ultimately leading to this calculation result.

"It's not just this star; even the sun in the universe has its moments of complete silence,"

Kalon slightly tilted his steel beak, gazing at the distant sun, and said, "One hundred and fifty trillion years from now, that sun will also cease to shine because it has exhausted its energy."

"The particles of matter and the particles of magical elements will also decay under the influence of the laws of the universe. In another 11 billion years, the matter within them will begin to gradually evaporate."

"Many celestial bodies will gradually evolve into another form, which is also one of the sources of materials I used to create the neutron star armor for you,"

Caron slowly said, "A hundred trillion years from now, only decaying celestial structures will exist in the universe, and celestial bodies like black holes will dominate the entire universe."

"Even the sun god, with his immense divine power, cannot change the predetermined fate of the universe's end,"

"But even black hole-like celestial bodies formed after the decay of stars will continue to decay and evaporate; the weaker these bodies are, the faster they evaporate,"

"What will ultimately await us is a terrifying galactic-scale black hole,"

"And after a Gogol year, the life of the universe will also come to an end. At that time, not only the rules of matter, but also the magical and mysterious rules of energy will no longer be able to easily exert their effects and will be completely paralyzed."

"Until the universe finally succumbs to utter nothingness and dies, returning to the sea of ​​chaos,"

"At that time, even the gods will perish completely along with the demise of the universe, instead of falling into slumber as death does when the rules are in operation!"

Mogeyes punched away the massive vortex in front of him and stepped out of the vortex on the surface of the star once again.

But Mogeyes's actions were not simply to blast open the massive storm vortex that covered tens of thousands of miles of space, but because of a powerful creature hidden within it.

This powerful creature resembles a snake but is not a snake. Its body is long, stretching for tens of miles from head to tail, and its back is thousands of meters wide.

Its long, narrow mouth resembled a large canyon, and its entire body was covered with enormous compound eyes.

The terrifying monster's compound eyes were only slightly concentrated on the bodies of the multi-armed giant and Charon, yet countless heavy suction forces swirled around the two powerful kings, threatening to pull the giant and dragon into its mouth and devour them.

Unfortunately, this being, born with the ability to control great power, is comparable in strength to the legendary dragon among the dragon races—the Mighty Dragon.

If an ordinary legend were to encounter such a terrifying celestial creature, unless they escaped in time or were prepared, they would likely become its snack in an instant.

But for a king like Mogyes, before possessing the mental strength to forcibly change and distort the world with his will, mere physical power is nothing more than duckweed on water, as weak as a rope.

Even Mogeyes and Caron didn't bother to pay attention to this enormous cosmic creature; Mogeyes simply killed it with a casual punch.

"So this is what you mean by true ultimate power being able to transcend the rise and fall of the universe, cross time and space, and reach a state of eternal existence?"

The multi-armed giant turned and looked down at the star, so enormous that even the Abomination was awestruck, and said in a deep, rumbling voice.

Kalon's gaze swept over the cosmic life form that had been casually blasted apart by the multi-armed giant. His dragon instincts led him to the idea of ​​using its flesh and blood as food.

However, Caron ignored this instinct and said, "How difficult it is to achieve such power."

"Based on current information, there are probably more than 200 billion suns in our universe. For the sun god, most of these suns could be one of his sources of power."

"According to the speculation and calculations of the Imperial Magicians, there are approximately two trillion star systems of varying sizes in the universe. Among them, there may not be many intelligent beings and civilizations, but they are still one of the reserve sources of divine power for the gods."

"But even such a powerful sun god, such powerful gods, are nothing more than pigs waiting to die, fish on a chopping board, before the rise and fall of the universe. They either flee to other universes or step into the silence of nothingness along with the universe."

"Mogeyes, the ultimate power we seek is greater than these stars, more majestic than the gods, and more vast than the starry sky!"

Even though Mogeyes possessed a powerful abomination bloodline that could only be born once every countless years in the world of Ekania, he still greatly admired the will of this first-generation dragon.

Otherwise, Mogeyes would not have allowed the Dragon Emperor to rest on his shoulders.

While Mogeyes was resting, he was being held in the dragon emperor's claws.

“That’s why you convinced me,” the head behind Mogeyes rose up and looked at Caron Gogmora, “and that’s why I’ve embarked on this journey with you!”
