Ultraman: Invincible from Saving Tiga.

Chapter 360 Dark Universe
The four-dimensional train finally came to a stop in a desolate expanse of space.

This is the edge of the universe, an invisible boundary.

Ahead lay a powerful seal erected by the Land of Light and Lin Yu, creating a strange sense of distortion in the space, like a giant funhouse mirror constantly flowing with light and shadow, separating two completely different universes.

On the other side of the mirror lies unfathomable darkness.

"After going around in circles, I still have to come here." Lin Yu stood at the train door, looking at the seal, and smiled self-deprecatingly.

He took a deep breath, and his mental energy began to slowly circulate. Just as he was about to tear open a gash in the most brutal way, a hand suddenly pressed down on his shoulder.

That hand was steady and powerful, carrying an unquestionable resolve.

Lin Yu's eyes narrowed instantly, his body reacting faster than his brain.

Without turning around, he suddenly lowered his shoulder, twisted his waist, and his right hand, like lightning, grabbed the other person's wrist in reverse, while his left elbow, at a tricky angle, directly hit the other person's ribs.

The entire movement was executed in one smooth motion, at an extreme speed.

However, the expected impact did not occur.

The owner of that hand reacted just as quickly. The moment his wrist was grabbed, he used the momentum to turn around and precisely blocked Lin Yu's elbow with his other hand.

Their arms crossed, their muscles tensed instantly, and they were locked in a strange struggle.

Lin Yu then turned his head, and when he saw the person's face clearly, he was completely stunned.

His face was resolute and angular, and his eyes seemed to burn with flames.

"Senior Leo?"

Leo did not answer; a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, clearly not expecting Lin Yu's reaction to be so swift.

He tried to break the deadlock with his unparalleled fighting skills.

He flicked his wrist, trying to break free from Lin Yu's grip, while simultaneously lowering his center of gravity and sending a subtle force through his arm to disrupt Lin Yu's balance.

This is the fighting style of Leo, a supreme skill capable of dominating the universe.

Then, Leo fell silent.

He used all his skills, even secretly adding a bit of force, but Lin Yu's hand gripping his wrist remained as if welded shut, completely unmoved.

Faced with absolute numbers, all techniques seem so pale and powerless.

Leo never expected that he had witnessed Lin Yu's terrifying physical strength on planet K76, but only after experiencing it firsthand today did he truly understand what kind of unreasonable power it was.

Are all young people this fierce?
I can't even bend it!

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

The two remained in a fighting stance, staring at each other in the silent universe.

"cough."

Lin Yu was the first to release his grip, breaking the eerie silence. "Senior, what are you doing?"

Leo withdrew his hand, flexed his slightly numb wrist, and looked at Lin Yu with a serious expression: "That's the question I should be asking you. What are you doing here? Do you know what's on the other side of the seal?"

"I know."

Lin Yu nodded, his tone calm, "A hell filled with alien beasts."

"Then why did you go in?"

Leo's voice carried a hint of anger, "What's the difference between you going in alone and committing suicide?"

"Because there are some things that someone has to do."

Lin Yu's gaze passed over Leo and looked at the twisted darkness. "In order to become stronger, and to protect more things, I will also venture into hell."

Looking at the determination in his eyes, Leo was momentarily at a loss for words.

Are they really that determined?
Leo originally wanted to use his SUV to bring the young man to his senses, but after thinking it over, he realized that the other man was already a mature warrior who knew what he was doing.

Leo remained silent for a long time before finally shaking his head: "No, I can't let you take such a risk."

Lin Yu sighed. He knew that reasoning with an Ultraman like Leo was pointless.

He didn't argue anymore, but instead took something out of his pocket.

It was an antique-style wind chime, carved with ancient patterns of the Ultra race.

Leo hesitated for a moment when he saw the wind chime.

"Ultraman wind chimes?"

"Senior, you should know what this means."

Lin Yu gently shook the wind chime, and the crisp sound rang out eerily in the vacuum. "I'm not fooling around, nor am I courting death. I'm just doing what I have to do."

Upon seeing this divine artifact that could summon the King of Ultra at any time, Leo's last stand wavered.

He knew he could no longer stop the man in front of him.

"I understand."

Leo gave Lin Yu a deep look, took a silver armlet from his wrist, and handed it over.

“Once you go in, I will immediately reseal the seal, and it will be even stronger than before.”

Leo's tone was extremely solemn, "When you have completed your training and want to come out, activate it. I will sense it and open a passage for you."

Please understand, this is the only thing I can do.

"I see."

Lin Yu took the armband and put it on his wrist. "Thank you, senior."

Without further hesitation, he turned to face the massive spatial seal, unleashing his full power.

The immense psychic power intertwined, transforming into a torrent that tore everything apart, crashing fiercely against the seal.

The spatial barrier let out a mournful cry of despair, and a pitch-black vortex was forcibly torn apart. Lin Yu turned and nodded to Leo, then resolutely plunged headlong into the vortex.

The process of traversing the treacherous terrain was incredibly difficult.

This is the space between universes and dimensions, where there is no time, no space, only chaos.

Countless bizarre and fantastical scenes flashed by rapidly before my eyes, and the raging energy turbulence was enough to tear apart any intruding matter.

Lin Yu maintained his psychic shield and struggled to move forward in this chaos.

After an unknown amount of time, he finally saw the "exit".

It was a gigantic, swirling cosmic bubble, like black mud, emanating a nauseating, malevolent aura.

"Multiverse?"

He took a deep breath, transformed into a streak of light, and rushed into the bubble.

The moment he entered, Leo immediately attacked, a crimson beam of light striking the crack in the seal, causing the vortex to quickly close and disappear.

Almost at the same moment he entered this universe, an indescribable malice, like a flood bursting its banks, surged towards Lin Yu.

It was endless despair, a lament, fear and resentment.

This torrent of malice was so vast and so pure that Lin Yu's thoughts came to a standstill for a moment.

He hovered in the pitch-black universe, gazing out at the endless, deathly silence before him, not a single twinkling star. Countless planetary remnants floated in the darkness like tombstones.

Lin Yu looked around at this world of death and realized a fact.

"This universe is dead."

Just then, the passive ability of "Wailing Devouring" within him was completely activated by this endless despair.

Streams of cool, pure energy surged uncontrollably into his body from all directions, nourishing every cell. The progress bar began to jump upwards at an unprecedented speed.

He could feel himself becoming stronger rapidly.

Become powerful in every way.

But he felt no joy, only a deep-seated coldness and heaviness.

He silently took out the Ultraman wind chime and looked at it quietly.

Should we shake it?
Summoning the King of Ultra, with his immense power capable of repairing the universe, might truly purify this hell.

But in Lin Yu's mind, there was an image of the old man in the Geed universe who, in order to repair the universe torn apart by the Impack Crisis, exhausted his power and became one with the universe.

Perhaps he can do it.

But the cost would be too high. If they just called in a Kami 4 to fill the gap, then the Land of Light would really have no trump card left.

Lin Yu slowly put away the Ultra Wind Chime.

"So, I'll take care of it!"

He closed his eyes, extending his senses to their limits, searching for even the slightest sign of life in this desolate universe.

Finally, at the edge of his perception range, he caught a faint glimmer of light, like a candle flickering in the wind.

A planet that has not yet been completely swallowed by darkness.

Lin Yu suddenly opened his eyes and flew in that direction without hesitation.

Lin Yu transformed into a streak of light, tearing straight through the planet's dim, yellowish atmosphere.

His mental power surged forth like a tide, instantly covering the entire continent as far as he could see. He saw the continuous mountain ranges, the dried-up riverbeds, and vast forests that had been reduced to scorched earth.

However, on this desolate land, a patch of green caught his attention.

It was a basin surrounded by mountains, and a small village was built against the mountainside. The villagers, dressed in simple linen clothes, were working diligently in the fields.

Lin Yu was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised.

What puzzled him even more was that everyone, whether they were farmers working in the fields or children playing at the village entrance, wore a small, polished mirror around their necks.

Under the sunlight, the entire village shimmered with twinkling lights, like an ocean of light.

"What kind of custom is this?" A question arose in Lin Yu's mind.

Just then, the earth suddenly began to tremble violently.

In the distant mountains and forests, a colossal creature slowly stood up.

It was as big as a cactus, with a huge yellow crown in front of it. Inside the crown, three tentacle-like "eyes" emitted an eerie yellow light, vigilantly scanning their surroundings.

"Roar!"

The monster let out a roar and strode forward with its root-like legs toward the village.

Lin Yu's expression instantly turned serious; he recognized the origin of this monster at a glance.

"A plant-like alien beast, Leviathan?"

He slowly raised his hand, and the cold, evolved trustee appeared in his palm, ready to transform and fight.

But the sight of the village the next second made him stop.

In the center of the village, in front of a huge mirror, all the villagers raised their small mirrors and focused the sunlight into beams, reflecting them onto the huge main mirror.

hum!
The main mirror emitted a buzzing sound and shone brightly.

A colossal figure, towering to the heavens, stepped out from the mirror and stood between the village and Lefriya.

The giant was made entirely of some unknown crystal, with a lithe and graceful form that refracted a rainbow of light in the sunlight.

"What the hell, the Mirror Knight?"
