At the same time, but the crazy

Chapter 657 The Ultimate Battle
Above the sky, the crack created by the self-destruction of the two emperors was not a physical shattering, but a more fundamental, conceptual collapse.

It's as if a painting that has been drawn countless times, with the ink already solidified into the only "truth," has been torn open with the most ruthless force, leaving an irreparable gap.

Through that gap, what you can see is not the starry sky, nor chaos, but countless bizarre and fantastical "possibilities" that should never intersect, surging wildly.

"puff--!"

A muffled groan, suppressed to the extreme, rang out, not from any living being on the primordial land.

The giant dark hand that tore through the sky trembled suddenly, and drops of "blood," seemingly formed from the purest resentment and the end, dripped from between its fingers.

Each drop easily pierced through time and space, vanishing into nothingness.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

The roar of the "serpent" is no longer a transmission of will, but a painful scream stemming from the tearing apart of existence itself.

It could clearly sense that a certain authority, which had been with it for countless years and had long been integrated into it, was being brutally stripped away.

At the beginning of the destruction of the era, he integrated the entire multiverse with the Investiture of the Gods, and for this reason, he made contributions to the multiverse.

Because the Investiture of the Gods was his natal magic weapon, he developed a symbiotic relationship with the Multiverse.

This is the foundation upon which it governs the way of heaven and commands all things.

As Dijun and Taiyi transform themselves into a torrent that sweeps away everything, control of this treasure, which they have distorted and altered, is being forcibly taken away.

This means that the "Heavenly Dao Link" that enabled it to remain invincible was ruthlessly severed by Zhang Qi at this moment, using the power of the two emperors!
The invincible status... is gone!
The snake's will was churning wildly; what it found even more unacceptable than losing its power was the loss of control over the chessboard.

It once used countless holy positions of myriad races as "nails," nailing them one by one to key points in the river of time.

Each holy position is a coordinate, an anchor point, forcibly converging countless divergent and diverse timelines into controllable "time states".

All the possibilities of the world, all the future developments, will be secured by these nails, ultimately flowing into the only river they have set.

The fate of all living beings and the course of the world are all under its will.

This is the true meaning of "destiny".

With this ability, and through Kunpeng's talent for traversing time and space, it can easily pull countless Saint-level powerhouses from other time states into this primordial main battlefield that serves as the benchmark.

The entire multiverse has a maximum capacity of about three thousand for the Holy Ones, but as long as those "temporal states" exist, and as long as those nails remain, its manpower is infinite!

Although this will invite rejection and correction from the Heavenly Dao, in the short term, this power is enough to crush all resistance.

But now, it's all over.

The self-destruction of Dijun and Taiyi was like a storm that swept across all timelines, destroying most of the time states that served as the foundation.

The endless army of saints that he relied on had already vanished like a bubble.

Now, all that's left to use are a handful of "finished products," like "World Destruction State," which it painstakingly cultivated to prepare for the worst-case scenario.

"Ha~"

A soft laugh rang out within the "snake's" will, sounding particularly jarring.
"You'll probably never understand what the dignity of life is, or what free will is."

Zhang Qi looked at the endless light and the shattered sky, and said calmly.

As he spoke, his body began to undergo a "change" that could not be described in words.

It's not simply about getting bigger, but a leap in dimensionality, an expansion of the concept.

The primordial world rapidly shrank beneath his feet, transforming into a single point of light. The river of time flowed beside him like an insignificant stream. Finally, he seemed to penetrate an invisible membrane, arriving at the outer edge of the entire multiverse.

Here is a pure "nothingness" that transcends all known concepts.

This is another dimension, far beyond the highest latitudes...

Only three things exist here.

A colossal tower standing atop diversity...

A colossal serpent, indescribably vast, seemingly formed from the very end and darkness of all universes.

And, at this moment, facing the giant serpent from afar, is Zhang Qi, who has transformed into a giant of light.

"Dignity? Freedom?"

The serpent's cold and venomous will echoed in the realm of nothingness.
"How utterly ridiculous! Would you care about the thoughts of the ants at your feet?"
What is the meaning of their dignity, their freedom?

Before the words were even finished, the giant serpent opened its enormous maw, capable of swallowing the heavens and the earth.

Without any hesitation, it pushed the already dimmed "Investiture of the Gods" to its limit.

Now that the chessboard has been overturned, there is only one path left for him!

Then all the pieces and the opponent will be buried together!
Om-!
Three distinct yet shared supreme auras emanated from the scroll of the Investiture of the Gods.

A sense of purity and non-action, as if it were the beginning of all paths.

A force that opens up the world and elucidates all things.

A force that severs all ages, containing endless slaughter.

Taiqing, Yuqing, Shangqing!
Three towering, majestic figures slowly emerged behind the "snake".

They are not immortals of this world, but from the previous era, those who have long been buried under the dust of time... the Three Pure Ones!
However, the moment these three figures appeared, the pure and flawless Dao aura emanating from them was suddenly shrouded in an inescapable twilight.

That sacred aura instantly transformed into a melancholic atmosphere, like the twilight of a hero or the twilight of a god.

This is the world, the supreme law of this multiverse, which is instinctively rejecting these three "uninvited guests" from the previous era.

This is like forcibly transplanting dinosaurs living in the Jurassic period to the modern era. The thin oxygen content in the modern air would not be able to support their enormous life forms, and they would eventually suffocate.

Generally speaking, once beings from the previous era appear in this era, they will collapse and perish directly due to this fundamental problem of "environmental adaptation".

But these three are not ordinary beings.

They possess ultimate power, their status is equal to that of the entire multiverse, and they have long since transcended dependence on the external environment, becoming a self-consistent and perfect "world" in themselves.

Even so, they still constantly suffer from the rejection and suppression of the Heavenly Dao of this world, which is the origin of the "twilight" twilight.

For the world today, this force is like a virus.

Even as dusk fell, what they possessed remained undeniable... ultimate combat power!
The next moment, the battle began.

There was no declaration of war, no words exchanged.

The four ultimate powerhouses, standing in the realm of "nothingness," simultaneously made their move...
