Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue.

Seeing Qian Renxue still charging towards her, Chimera couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.

Intense flames exploded around him, caused by Qian Renxue's attack. These flames did indeed affect him; no matter how strong he was, he was now facing an opponent of equal strength.

Despite having the upper hand earlier, the chimera knew that it was because it was winning by sheer numbers.

He waved his head once more, unleashing a torrent of spatial and temporal energy, attempting to distort the spacetime in front of Qian Renxue, hinder her progress, or even trap her completely.

However, Qian Renxue ignored the other party's obstruction. The spacetime turbulence was useless to her. It seemed that the other party could not completely control what would happen after she reached the cosmic level.

Qian Renxue ignored the effects of these powers; she could do what the Chimera could do, and she instantly smoothed out the disrupted spacetime.

The only worrying thing is the energy within her body. She knows she doesn't have time to recover, because once the other party realizes what's happening, they won't give her that chance.

Suddenly, the space around the Chimera shattered. It was shocked to discover that the explosion Qian Renxue had triggered earlier was not intended to harm it, but rather to burn up the space with flames comparable to those produced by a cosmic explosion!

"Are you insane?!" the Chimera roared in shock. "You shattered the universe, are you trying to be annihilated by the power of the Void?!"

The place outside the universe is called the void.

Qian Renxue nodded inwardly.

This aligns with the previous statement that the God of the Universe said he reincarnated in the universe to gain the power of innovation and to fight against other Gods of the Universe.

Perhaps there are other universes beyond our own, different from parallel universes, truly other universes.

However, now is not the time to think about these things. Qian Renxue only needs to know one thing—there are some powers that can frighten the chimera in front of her.

It seemed to have been truly injured by some force from beyond the universe, letting out a chilling roar that shattered countless stars into dust.

Its roar became chaotic and violent, as if the soul of divine punishment was exerting its power, forgetting to protect, and issuing a curse after destroying all planes. Upon hearing this sound, both humans and gods would be consumed by fear.

But Qian Renxue laughed. She withstood the roar and energy torrent from the giant beast, using her own blade and body to withstand it. Then, she raised the angelic holy sword, which had transformed into a heavy sword, and leaped high into the air!

At the same time, Qian Renxue's eyes narrowed; she had noticed!

She noticed the other person freeze for a moment!

Countless threads shot out from her body—the power of the little devil. In that instant, countless threads entangled the giant beast before her, each thread carrying the ultimate laws of space and cutting.

The laws of space and cutting cannot harm the behemoth in front of them, but they can slowly prolong this moment of stun by a little bit!

Qian Renxue was not afraid of the "void power" that the Chimera mentioned, because it was not even on her radar at the moment.

A chanting sound rang out, accompanied by a platinum-gold figure. Qian Renxue descended from the sky, wielding a giant sword that looked even larger than herself. Her body appeared to be only one-hundredth the size of a chimera; such a target should have been easily torn apart.

But the Chimera finally sensed something was wrong; its nine heads and eighteen eyes emitted a light that was somewhere between ferocity and fear.

The blade disappeared during the swing, leaving only a white radiance. A surge of divine blood shot out, and Qian Renxue severed one of the Chimera's heads!

The Chimera writhed wildly in agony, breaking free of the threads binding it. Then, its other eight heads began to attack Qian Renxue, but Qian Renxue landed directly on its mountain-like body, wielding her sword to continuously block the incoming attacks.

The explosions around her had ended, and Qian Renxue's attack had only happened once. Now she was fully focused on dealing with the monster beneath her.

After one of its heads was severed, the Chimera somehow refined it and used it to mend the cosmic rifts.

It seems this guy is genuinely afraid, afraid of something.

During its battle with Qian Renxue, it sensed her strength. Although she was just a tiny humanoid, she was very powerful. As the two fought, the surrounding star systems were constantly destroyed. It was as if it was carrying Qian Renxue and crashing through the universe, hoping to throw her away at some point and then crush her into powder with its own body!

Qian Renxue coughed up blood again from the intense shock. The Angelic Holy Sword left wounds on the giant beast's body, but apart from the initial strike that severed its head, the other attacks could only damage the chimera's skin, and sometimes even sparked brilliant flames.

The Chimera roared, while Qian Renxue gritted her teeth and occasionally let out an even more chilling howl.

The chimera's body crashed into a star system, scattering surrounding stars and creating a massive stellar wave. Qian Renxue was also thrown away by the impact, flying off the chimera and crashing into a star-studded area.

But she dared not slacken her efforts. She gave herself an order, just as she had once commanded the Infinite Spear. She commanded herself to kill the Chimera at all costs!

Because if he doesn't die, not only will he die, but the people of the Douluo Galaxy will also become experimental subjects. Because if he dies, then no one will remember the true history anymore.

She plunged the Angelic Sword directly into a nearby star, absorbing its power, and then, dragging her weary body, launched another attack on the Chimera.

"There's no place for you here." The chattering voices reached Qian Renxue's ears. "As someone born from my universe, you should just behave yourself. Why are you doing this?"

Ignoring Chimera's questions, Qian Renxue's eyes burned with fury. She knew she could no longer rely on skill to win; Chimera had recovered from her earlier panic, and she could no longer use the explosive fire she had just witnessed to threaten her.

"What exactly is he afraid of?"

As Qian Renxue pondered, she used the stars as stepping stones to dodge her opponent's attacks, and the blade in her hand grew brighter and brighter.

"He is afraid of humanity itself."

Suddenly, an idea flashed into her mind.

He fears that humans will surpass him, which is why he suppresses evolution. However, he also covets the creativity of the humans he created, because creativity is priceless and limitless!

He wants to guide humanity through countless cycles of reincarnation, ultimately reclaiming that creativity for himself. Yet, ironically, he also confines humanity within his own framework.

This is similar to a soul tool. If a soul tool were not bound by the condition that it "must be based on soul power", it would surely achieve great things in the future. However, the highest level soul tool is the natal soul tool, which is linked to the martial soul, thus limiting it. Therefore, a soul tool master can never surpass a soul master.

Qian Renxue's lips curled into a smile.

I also evolved from humans, so he's afraid of me.

"I want true freedom." A fire burned in Qian Renxue's eyes, and the flames began to spread, engulfing her.

"sacrifice".

The Angel Clan's secret technique: Sacrifice. Qian Renxue last used it when facing the God of Asura.

"So-called freedom is nothing but a synonym for nothingness."

Qian Renxue no longer answered its words, but instead drew the Angelic Holy Sword directly at that moment, the blessing brought by the sacrifice engraved upon it. This was a thought only a human would have, a choice only a human would make.

At the last moment, Qian Renxue's humanity returned, and she suddenly understood herself and realized what she really wanted.

If there is no place for you here, then I will become home itself.

She should have realized it sooner; this was originally a pact between a little angel and a little devil.

God wanted to become human, and always has!

Amidst the surging tide of countless stars, Qian Renxue unleashed her strongest sword light!

The chimera roared in fury, and its attack became tangible, like a galaxy... no, like a miniature universe collapsing, forming a vast expanse of white. Just as after the universe collapses, only nothingness remains.

However, the vast expanse of white was forcefully sliced ​​open by Qian Renxue, and the sword light slashed towards the Chimera's body, causing it to tilt backward and its massive body to become unstable, as if it had lost its weight.

The chimera was beheaded again by this attack, this time a total of four heads were severed. This was the great power brought about by sacrifice, a miracle belonging to mankind.

Its body collapsed, but after swaying a few times, it regained its balance. It looked at Qian Renxue in disbelief, whose body was now completely engulfed in nameless flames.

Qian Renxue jumped again, finally landing on the Chimera's body, which had just stabilized. Molten light flowed around her body, and death energy swirled around her.

At this moment, her angelic sword finally succeeded in piercing the body of the giant beast. Because half of its head was cut off, it lost control of about half of its body.

But it was still roaring furiously, while Qian Renxue plunged the Angelic Holy Sword deep into its body and gripped the hilt tightly.

The blade no longer shone only with golden-red light; the other half was now flowing with a dark, eerie blue glow.

"Void?" Qian Renxue coughed, panting heavily, and then exerted force again. She had found the weak point of this guy's body.

It's funny, the reason Qian Renxue was able to find the opponent's weakness, including being able to cut off his head, is because she had just analyzed the universe core she had captured.

Perhaps this Chimera was the same, analyzing her past self when she was still a mortal, which is why she was able to grasp her "unpredictable" form.

"You've reached your limit, and then you've gone through another cycle. What tangible result have you gained?"

Qian Renxue slammed her palm against the sword hilt, and at this moment, the last bit of energy she had used after her sacrifice was also extracted and poured into the other's body through the Angelic Holy Sword.

"Boom—"

This time, a sound like a cosmic explosion resounded within the chimera's body.

"You, you stuffed a universe into my body?" Chimera exclaimed in shock.

"You thought you were so capable?" Qian Renxue spat out another mouthful of divine blood. "Back when I was in your universe, you didn't seem affected at all. Why are you so concerned about a universe appearing within you now?"

Qian Renxue took a deep breath and swallowed back a mouthful of blood that tasted sweet and metallic: "Besides, this isn't just one universe, it's many, many universes... The biggest difference between you and me is probably that you don't dare to risk your life."

Since the God of the Universe feared that the beings in his universe would surpass him, Qian Renxue, after breaking through his defenses one after another, stuffed the universe she created into it.

The universe that Qian Renxue raised will likely be inhabited by humans who are very similar to her. In that case, they will all want to surpass the universe and end up being devoured by the chimera.

"You treat humanity as pawns," Qian Renxue smiled. "Now, you will bleed because of these pawns."

"Mortals have never killed gods; only gods can."

Chimera's voice seemed to weaken as the universes within it began to develop. In those few short seconds, some of those universes had existed for hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of millions of years.

"...One day, you too will seek out...your own executioner."

The light emanating from Qian Renxue began to dim gradually, and the blessing brought by her sacrifice began to fade. This was her greatest trump card, one that she had never used since her resurrection.

Because subconsciously she believed that no one was worthy of her using this move.

She doesn't even deserve it.

She also did not incorporate this move into her own "all techniques into one" melting pot.

Because she knew that even if she became a god devoid of emotion, she wouldn't be worthy of it.

This move, however, is precisely her final proof as a "human being." In the current situation, she is willing to sacrifice herself once again. Last time it was for Bibi Dong; this time, it is for herself, for her family and friends, and for everyone.

Unbeknownst to everyone, the Sacrifice Arcane increases with one's mental strength. For instance, in the parallel universe she witnessed, the angelic families that survived due to the influence of the fragments of divine power after her fall also employed the Sacrifice Arcane, but they could only amplify their divine power threefold.

Now, Qian Renxue has finally used this move.

As the effects of her sacrifice began to show, the light in her eyes began to fade.

"Should I thank you for your advice...?" She was still coughing up blood. "But what 'I' am and what I want are my own decisions. Similarly, what humans want should also be their own decision. As a god, guidance is what I should do, not nurture them."

"I will do better than you, that's for sure. It's just a pity that you, who have integrated yourself into the rules of the universe, will never know that."

As soon as she finished speaking, the Chimera's body suddenly exploded.

Sparkling specks appeared, representing countless living beings flying out from within it.

Qian Renxue poured her last bit of energy into it, just as she had said before. She would transform her virtues and emotions into pure seeds, and then follow different paths to guide and help all living beings in the universe... until eternity.

"That's something to look forward to..." Chimera's last words came, and then his body began to turn into nothingness.

"So..."

Qian Renxue's figure also began to fade, but as she looked at the remains of the Chimera, she stretched out her hand: "Farewell, nothingness."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qian Renxue's figure vanished. (End of Chapter)
