At this moment, shatter the dimensional barrier

And it's all so muddled, illogical, without any principle, not even a cause and effect—is this the path to pleasure? So powerful indeed.

"..." Zhongli's cheeks twitched slightly. He couldn't understand it either. It was something that was completely illogical and beyond the comprehension of an old-fashioned person like him, just as he couldn't deal with Hu Tao.

Time flies, and just three minutes later...

【KO! !!!】

A cheerful laugh echoed through the solar system. The evil god had been beaten beyond recognition, resembling a lump of rotten flesh.

"Thank you everyone, thank you for your attention. As the referee and as a participant, I hereby declare the Forbidden Fighting Arena closed." He Xi gracefully bowed slightly towards the Earth and spoke politely.

Snapped!

With a snap of her fingers, He Xi instantly trapped the evil god, now reduced to rotten flesh, inside a jar crafted from the power of the Destiny of Joy.

He Xi and the jar containing the evil god rapidly shrank. He Xi returned to her original size, and the jar became a thumb-sized capsule held in her hand.

"This is so awesome~ Joyful Destiny is just too great." He Xi looked delighted. This absurd and joyful battle was just like a game. No, this is a game, a joyful game.

"Yes, this is joy! Your joy, Aha's joy, everyone's joy~ Ahaha~" Aha appeared in front of Hexi and laughed happily.

……

The solar system has returned to normal, and even the moon has recovered.

Time passed slowly, and after a brief period of chaos, the earth gradually returned to calm, as if everyone had experienced a dream.

The Earth's gods, having gained nothing from the battle, departed with regret, leaving behind only a few low-ranking gods and superhumans on their mission.

The gods and extraordinary beings who remained were there to cleanse the world of harmful monsters and restore normalcy, and incidentally plant a World Tree so that humanity could connect to the 'Ladder to Godhood'.

Everything seemed to have returned to calm, but the internet was abuzz with discussion about what had happened.

The excitement intensified as amateur astronomers uploaded their own recordings.

Everyone was discussing what that masked being was, and what that ugly monster was.

"Anyway, it has nothing to do with me... This kind of outrageous thing definitely can't be pinned on me this time." King said to himself while looking at his phone, and finally said with relief, "This kind of thing can't be misunderstood at all."

"However, that masked one must be the God of Pleasure, the true god."

Having become a traveler on the path of joy, he is very sensitive to the power of that path.

"As expected of a true god... Thank you for giving me power, even though it doesn't have any real offensive capabilities."

dong dong dong.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Mr. King, are you home? This is Sitch from the Hero Association." Sitch was sweating profusely with nervousness, and his legs were trembling.

At this time, he was summoned by the Hero Association to visit their ace, King, to learn about that dreamlike event.

The solar system has become a club. What exactly is going on in the battle between two terrifying giants who can easily destroy Earth—no, destroy the solar system?

The Hero Association believes that the only person who might understand this is King. If they don't understand King, then no one in the world could possibly understand him.

Child Emperor even speculated that there was a 1% chance that the masked giant was King.

If he discovers a resemblance between King and the masked giant during his visit, then the probability becomes 100%.

"Gulp~" Sitch felt like he was suffocating just standing at the door of King's house. A terrifying sense of oppression was pressing down on him, and sweat was already forming streams on his face.

Creak—the door opened, and King, dressed in ordinary plaid clothes, stared at Sitch with a blank expression.

"Is something wrong?" King was a little uneasy. Was he going to be sent to fight those monsters who could destroy the city again?

Sickey has always been his contact person and the one who recruited him as an S-class hero with an extremely high salary.

"Ten, I'm very sorry to disturb your rest, Mr. King." Sitch blurted out hurriedly, his tongue seemingly tumbling out, "I, I'm here on behalf of the Hero Association to inquire about the anomaly in the solar system." He then quickly explained.

"Of course, it doesn't matter if there are any inconveniences."

"Solar system anomaly...isn't it all over now?" King asked, scratching his temple as he spoke, but something in his hand made him stop.

He's studying the Fool's Mask that the Star God of Joy gave him; maybe he can develop some powerful attack abilities.

"Gah—" Sitch stared wide-eyed at the Fool's Mask in King's hand, his throat gripped by an invisible hand.

Face, face, mask... a mask similar to the Masked Giant, no, no, I remember there was one exactly the same among those countless mask phantoms!

That's right, King is definitely the masked giant who saved the solar system and restored the moon!!!

The legend of the king is still too conservative!

Chapter 354 Devouring Multiple Structures, Even Heaven's Law Cannot Repay the Kindness

the other side

Los Saint has now arrived at the origin of the One-Punch Universe, located at the center of the cosmic giant's brain. This place is composed of hundreds of universes, and it is the largest of them all, with no trace of life yet.

This cosmic giant sees itself as a living being, rather than the universe itself. Life and civilization are, in fact, destabilizing factors for the universe.

“But something that doesn’t align with my values ​​cannot exist.” Luo Sheng laughed: “Therefore, I will crush the will and devour the truth.”

After saying that, Los Saint instantly unleashed all his power, including his primal force, the 'Truth of Existence', and the cosmic power of all his universes.

From the perspective of the multiverse, the head of the multiverse giant, composed of hundreds of thousands of universes, instantly emitted a dazzling golden light. The light was so bright that it illuminated all of the hundreds of thousands of universes, and the order rules that conflicted with the universes constantly collided directly with the original order.

Click—click—click—

The hundreds of cosmic barriers surrounding the head shattered layer by layer, one universe after another collapsed, order broke down, rules were annihilated, and the logic of the universe was rewritten.

This is the most direct clash between the source and the truth, like two stones; whichever source has weaker source power and weaker quality of truth will be crushed.

If the Cosmic Giants possessed a unified self, then Los Santos would undoubtedly lose. But it lacks a clear self-awareness; at most, its instincts are very strong.

It's already quite good that it can mobilize one ten-thousandth of the power of the multi-structure; how could such a small amount of power possibly stop Los Saint's attack aimed at a single point?

There was no explosion, only shattered dimensional fluctuations. The first core universe was broken, and the shattered universe returned to its original chaotic form under the power of the Root Force and the Truth, and was recycled back by the Root.

It's as if a black hole larger than the universe is restoring the fragmented universe to a state of pure energy.

Los Saint did not stop, but continued to unleash his power, aiming to shatter the core and head of the Cosmic Giant, revealing the origin and truth.

Click—click—

Los Saint raised his hand, and a long spear in gold and silver appeared. This was the 'Declaration of the Great God' that he hadn't used in a long time.

It can no longer be called a 'Declaration of the Gods'; it has long been a 'Root Weapon' within Los Santos's body.

If the 'Root Weapon' is randomly thrown into a dimensional rift, the power it emits will naturally construct a universe, just like the 'Star Cup'.

The 'Star Cup' is actually a 'source tool' created by a God of Truth.

A god capable of creating 'Root Items' must be an existence that grasps the truth; in short, it must be a supreme god similar to the Four Great Truths of the Little Garden.

"Go!" Los Saint declared to the shattered cosmic barrier.

A flash of golden and silver light streaked across the universe, like a thin thread cast into the boundless cosmos, as if nothing had happened.

But the next moment, universes shattered and disintegrated completely.

The rupture of these universes is like a soap bubble bursting in the air. Everything within the universe turns into nothingness in the instant of disintegration. The broken rules and cosmic logic are all recycled back by the Root Vortex.

Only then did the slow-witted cosmic giant react, his rage and instinctive will descending, unleashing a massive beam of truth imbued with primal power as it hurtled toward Los Saint.

The attack is invisible; it's no longer an attack of energy, matter, rules, or even philosophy. The attack of truth is indescribable, akin to 'I think, therefore I am; I think, therefore the world exists; I want to think, therefore everything exists; I want to reduce everything to nothingness.'

"What a simple, brutal, and skillless attack." With a casual wave of his hand, Luo Sheng transformed his own Truth into a long sword, splitting the attack of the cosmic giant.

"If you are the cosmic will that cherishes life, I don't mind your existence, and we might even become friends. However, your form of existence is completely opposite to ours, so you must die."

Luo Sheng said coldly, continuing his attack: "As the saying goes, the greatest respect for the enemy is to exterminate them completely. Don't even think that a wisp of their will can remain."

One after another, the universes burst like soap bubbles, and the head of the cosmic giant was replaced by a pitch-black vortex of origin far larger than the universe itself.

The core of everything about the cosmic giant is in this vortex.

Without hesitation, Luo Sheng rushed in, unleashing his power in a continuous stream, reaching the limit of his infectiousness.

He wants to infect from within the vortex of the root, for a root without self-awareness is no different from an unclaimed object, just like the Star Cup.

"Let me see what your truth really is!" Luo Sheng had already entered the core of the Root Vortex. Before him was the 'Ring of Truth,' which was only the size of a galaxy, and at the center of the Ring of Truth was an even smaller 24-sided crystal, which was only 12 meters in diameter.

The 'Ring of Truth' is the embodiment of truth. It has no concept of size; it can be infinitely large, spreading into the multiverse, or infinitely small, even existing within the cell of an ordinary human being.

The central icosahedral crystal is the 'source' of the power generated by the operation of the 'Ring of Truth'.

That's right, that's how the 'root' was born. Truth is the supreme existence that comes from nothing, and the root is the product that represents 'coming from nothing'.

Therefore, he said that Los Santos was the source of the mystical side, or more accurately, the embodiment of 'existential truth'.

The name of truth is 'existence', which is the fundamental basis for the existence of everything, whether it be rules or energy, the visible or the invisible, or even the worldview itself, all are under the truth of 'existence'.

Even the fact that the multiverse itself can be recognized is due to the effect of 'existential truth'.

【akdifik#-@&-@8()99@91)@)——】

A violent voice of truth erupted, a death throes of this multiverse, but to no avail.

“Ha…” Luo Sheng, defying the violent rejection of truth, arrived before the source.

Reaching out, the truth of its own existence enveloped the 24-sided crystal, shrinking it to the size of a basketball and holding it in the palm of the hand.

"Ha ha—" Luo Sheng's body became transparent, and a golden ring of truth appeared around him, surrounding him. The ring of truth seemed to have turned into a black hole vortex, continuously sucking up the truth of this universe.

Strands of light were disassembled from the enormous Ring of Truth, which was as vast as the Milky Way, and revolved around Los Santos.

“Limited truth?” Los Saint was a little puzzled. The term “truth” was merely a subjective and forced assertion.

Just as humans name the plants and animals on Earth, truth itself has no name; it is only that truth may be biased in a certain aspect according to its own subjective consciousness.

When the Lords of Law ascend to the Truth, he will simultaneously acquire their Truth. This is not plunder, but replication.

Once you reach this level, the superior-subordinate relationship no longer exists.

However, the gods will still take him as their leader and obey his will, since without him, the gods could not have reached such heights.

This is why he resolutely adopted the Pure American system; the truths that emerged from this system are something we cannot help but be grateful for.

Even the greatest kindness in the world can never be fully repaid.

As Los Santos devoured the truth of the One-Punch Universe, the entire multiverse's order began to collapse.

The cosmic logic that the cosmic giants instinctively established is being overturned.
