Survival for All: I can deconstruct projections and synthesize everything.

"What's going on?" Lin Xiao frowned deeply, his omniscient rules operating at full power as he analyzed the source of that power.

Then he understood.

That's the repulsive force of the universe.

Deconstruction and projection are two completely different talents, representing two entirely different power systems. Forcibly combining them is tantamount to breaking the rules of the universe and creating a completely new existence.

Although the cosmic consciousness has been devoured by the God of Mist, the rules of the universe itself are still in operation.

These rules are rejecting Lin Xiao's synthesis. They do not allow the emergence of a completely new talent that is neither deconstruction nor projection.

"Interesting." A cold smile appeared on Lin Xiao's lips.

"Even the rules of the universe don't want me to synthesize it?"

"Then I'll show you how to synthesize it!"

His will became unwavering at that moment.

All the power in the miniature universe was mobilized, nine-colored light flowed around him, and hundreds of rules were running wildly in the depths of the universe.

The seven-colored light of the Synthesis Talent became even more dazzling and radiant.

Transparent and silver-white runes, enveloped in a seven-colored light, began to slowly approach.

That repulsive force is still there, and it's getting stronger and stronger.

But faced with Lin Xiao's will, the synthesis could no longer be stopped.

Time flows silently in the miniature universe.

Lin Xiao and the repulsive force were locked in a stalemate, neither willing to back down.

He knew this was a battle of wills.

If he backs down, the synthesis will fail. If he succeeds, the rules of the universe will recognize this new talent.

Lin Xiao, however, is never someone who gives up easily.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Day .

Lin Xiao's forehead was covered with large beads of sweat; he had almost pushed the power of the miniature universe to its limit.

Nine-colored light surged wildly around him, and hundreds of rules operated at speeds beyond limits in the depths of the universe.

The web of rules, amidst the violent tremors, was constantly torn apart and repaired, forming a dynamic balance.

However, the fusion of the deconstruction talent and the projection talent is still incomplete.

The repulsive force from the rules of the universe was far stronger than he had imagined.

It's not just rejecting the fusion of two talents, but also rejecting Lin Xiao's will and his rule-breaking behavior.

It was as if the entire universe was against him, trying to stop him from completing this insane synthesis.

"This guy..." Lin Xiao gritted his teeth, the seven-colored light of his synthesis talent surging wildly in his hand.

He could sense that the synthesis process was already halfway complete.

The transparent and silver-white runes have largely merged, and the boundary between the two runes is now completely blurred.

The two colors, which were originally clearly distinct, transparent and silvery-white, have now merged into a completely new color in the fusion area—a color that flows like mercury, somewhere between transparent and silvery-white.

Only the final core part remains to be completed.

But this last part is also the most difficult part.

Because that is where the essence of two talents lies.

The core of deconstruction talent is analysis, while the core of projection talent is replication.

These two fundamentally opposing forces are far more difficult to merge than the previous pattern fusion.

If even the essence is integrated, then deconstruction and projection are no longer two separate talents, but a completely new existence.

An existence that has never appeared in this universe before.

The rules of the universe will not allow this to happen.

The repulsive force is getting stronger and stronger, and more and more terrifying.

It no longer simply pushed the two runes away, but began to actively attack Lin Xiao's consciousness.

Gray light surged from the void, transforming into countless tiny needles that pierced Lin Xiao's sea of ​​consciousness.

Those needles contain the power of the universe's rules, and each one can cause a brief period of confusion in the consciousness of a ninth-tier powerhouse.

But Lin Xiao's Myriad Realities True Self Rule was operating at full power, dissolving those needles one by one.

Nine-colored light swirled in his sea of ​​consciousness, forming an indestructible barrier.

However, an even bigger crisis emerged.

Cracks began to appear at the boundaries of the miniature universe.

The cracks spread out like a spider web, extending from the edge of the miniature universe all the way to the center.

Countless stars shattered within the cracks, transforming into primordial energy particles that dissipated into the void.

Countless lives perished in the cracks, before they could even scream.

A trickle of blood seeped from the corner of Lin Xiao's mouth, and his body began to tremble violently.

Damage to the microcosm will be directly reflected in his body, because he has become one with the microcosm.

But he did not give up.

"I won't give up," he said softly, his eyes shining with determination.

"This is our hope, the hope of the Eternal Alliance, the hope of this universe."

His will became incredibly strong at that moment.

In the miniature universe, the shattered stars begin to reform.

Nine-colored light surged from the center of the universe, covering every crack and reassembling the shattered stars.

Those lives that had perished began to be reborn. Nourished by the nine-colored light, new cells began to divide, and new life began to sprout.

Nine-colored light flowed around Lin Xiao, repairing the cracks one by one.

The seven-colored light of the Synthesis Talent became even more dazzling and radiant.

It no longer passively guides the fusion of the two runes, but begins to actively attack the repulsive force.

The seven-colored light transformed into countless tiny tentacles, wrapping around the gray light, tearing it apart and devouring it bit by bit.

With each bit of repulsive force it absorbed, the seven-colored light became brighter, as if it were transforming that repulsive force into its own power.

The transparent and silver-white runes, enveloped in a seven-colored light, began their final fusion.

The core part is slowly approaching.

The repulsive force erupted wildly at this moment, almost tearing Lin Xiao's consciousness apart.

Countless gray rays of light surged from the void, forming a massive vortex that attempted to separate the two runes once more.

But Lin Xiao gritted her teeth and persevered.

His consciousness was like a small boat in the gray vortex, ready to be swallowed up at any moment.

But his will acted like an anchor chain, firmly fixing him in place.

Time continues to flow.

Day 10, Day 15, Day 20...

Lin Xiao had no idea how long she had persevered.

His consciousness was blurred, his body was numb, and his miniature universe was on the verge of collapse.

The nine-colored light dimmed, the net of rules broke in many places, and the stars that had just been repaired began to shatter again.

But he still didn't give up.

Because he knew that if he gave up, everything would be over.

If he fails, the Eternal Alliance will lose its last hope, and the entire universe will be devoured by the God of Mist.

This is the final battle, and the last line of defense.
