Chapter 355 The Void Descends! Karl's Mysterious Ancient Book! Live from the Scene
The Shadow World.
This place has now become a void, or more accurately, the entire Shadow World has collapsed!
All the Void Warriors, including Nusa's puppet clones and Kal's right-hand man Snow, became sacrifices for the Void Descent.
A massive rift, comparable in size to a star, stretches across the center of the crumbling Shadow World.
The crack revealed a purplish-black world, filled with mystery and giving off a sense of unknown terror.
In the far distance, the angel army, led by Yan, stood ready, each of them with an extremely solemn expression.
"Your Majesty, what should we do?"
The angel caught up with Yan, her voice trembling slightly.
Although angels never fear powerful enemies, the scene before her made every cell in her body tremble.
Yan took a deep breath and gritted her teeth, saying, "Where's Chu Yang? What is he waiting for?"
Angel Chaser pursed her lips and said, "Pangu has received our message, and Chu Yang is probably on his way..."
"Nonsense!" Yan's face darkened. "He's the strongest god in the universe! He could get here from Earth in less than ten minutes!"
"But half an hour has already passed since the void descended!"
"That bastard wants to use all the angels as cannon fodder!"
Seeing that the Shadow World was about to be completely destroyed, even Yan couldn't help but feel a little impatient.
They had just witnessed firsthand how those Void Warriors and Karl's researchers were all turned into "sculptures" and instantly lost all vital signs simply by being swept by a beam of light from the Void Rift!
Immediately afterwards, their bodies rapidly dissipated and were swallowed by the void!
It was an unimaginable force, and even Yan felt a strong sense of powerlessness.
She even felt that Chu Yang had been too arrogant before!
Even if he were the strongest god in the universe, he would probably be powerless to resist the unknown and terrifying power of the void.
"The mighty Queen of Angels, actually speaks ill of others behind their backs?"
A mocking voice rang out, and Yan couldn't help but be slightly taken aback.
Looking at that back view that was no different from that of an ordinary person, and that casual outfit that seemed rather incongruous, Yan inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.
Not only her, but the angels behind her also felt the pressure on their bodies ease.
Chu Yang actually blocked the impact of the entire void with his own strength!
This effect is an absolute negative impact of the power of the void on beings in the main universe. Even the strongest god, as long as he has not transcended the concept of beings in the main universe, will tremble all his cells like the angel just now.
But Chu Yang not only ignored this threat, he was also able to intercept it completely!
Could it be that……
Has he transcended the biological level of the three-dimensional universe and become a higher-dimensional being?
The thought had barely crossed Yan's mind when he shook his head.
This is absolutely impossible, because if Chu Yang became a higher-dimensional being, he would be unable to move in the three-dimensional world, as Kilan is an example of.
"Some things happened on the way, but thankfully I arrived not too late..."
Chu Yang stared at the massive void rift without turning around, and said softly, "Yan, take your men and retreat back to the 19th defense line!"
"Leave the rest to me!"
At this point, Chu Yang paused, then added, "I've already spoken with Dukao and granted He Xi some Pangu permissions."
"If the Line 19 is breached, the angels can use Pangu to perform large-scale, long-distance wormhole jumps and migrate to the Chiwuheng star system at any time!"
The Shadow World collapsed, becoming a node connecting the Void and the main universe. Even if Chu Yang could stop the powerful beings in the Void, the angels would face immense pressure as they would be the first to be hit.
Chu Yang has essentially paved the way for the angels' future.
After all, as long as the living forces are not severely damaged, it is not difficult to rebuild the Angel Nebula in the future, even if it is temporarily abandoned.
Yan glanced at the void rift, took a deep breath, and said, "At least you still have a conscience!"
Chu Yang twitched the corner of his mouth. "Don't act like a lovesick woman confined to her chambers. I don't want Xiao Lun to misunderstand!"
Yan snorted coldly, ignored him, and waved his hand to order the angels to retreat.
After the angel legion withdrew in an orderly manner, they began to open a spatial wormhole and awaited Yan's next instructions.
Yan glanced at Chu Yang and said solemnly, "You bear the weight of the entire known universe on your shoulders; you should know the significance of that!"
"in addition……"
She hesitated for a moment, then her icy tone took on a mocking glint, "Don't die, you're practically stealing the soul of our Heavenly King..."
"If you die, she might do something crazy!"
It sounded like a joke, but Chu Yang understood that Yan was still resentful about He Xi secretly leaving Angel City and following him to the Tianyang Star System.
Tilting his head slightly, Chu Yang watched Yan He enter the wormhole and couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle.
Indeed, all women, regardless of their status or power, share one thing in common...
That's holding a grudge!
Turning his gaze away, Chu Yang looked at the void rift again, his eyes slightly narrowed.
On his way here, he did have some things to do, not some trouble, but he resurrected the leopard.
During this process, Chu Yang discovered a crucial problem.
Those are beings from the main universe that have perished under the power of the void, leaving no trace whatsoever; even their life data and genetic code will perish.
That feeling is like...
Everything was swallowed up by the void!
Chu Yang could only revive the leopard by relying on Pangu's data backup to rebuild its physical body.
Of course, a body without a soul is nothing more than a walking corpse.
Fortunately, Chu Yang was always cautious and had long ago separated a wisp of the soul of everyone around him and sealed it away.
Although these souls cannot be brought into the Soul Palace, they are stored on Earth and strictly protected by Earth's higher authorities.
In the known universe, there is absolutely no safer place than Earth.
"Karl, shouldn't we meet him too?"
Chu Yang's voice was very soft, but it resounded throughout the entire universe.
Come to think of it, the only time he met Karl was back on Emerald Star.
At that time, Karl was focused on Keisha, while Chu Yang was studying the power of the void and the explosion of the supernova. The two did not have much interaction.
As Chu Yang finished speaking, a phantom figure slowly emerged in front of the void rift, with an ancient book floating in front of him.
The book cover is full of the feel of age, even giving people a sense of decay and ruin.
Chu Yang's pupils contracted slightly. His intuition told him that the ancient book was very likely related to prehistoric civilization!
"Chu Yang, you are too arrogant."
Karl's voice was calm, as if he had never taken the past grievances with Chu Yang to heart.
"Oh?" Chu Yang raised an eyebrow, shook his head and chuckled, "It seems you haven't grasped the situation from beginning to end..."
Karl was taken aback.
He had always believed that Chu Yang was arrogant and wanted to solve the threat of the void at its root, which was why he allowed himself to connect to the void.
Chu Yang even went so far as to provide some assistance in this regard, in order to restrain the angels.
"Actually, you guessed right, I do want to resolve the hidden dangers of the void..."
Chu Yang said softly, "But that's only one of the purposes."
"Perhaps the void represents the ultimate fear for the known universe..."
"But as long as I'm here, do you think the void can threaten the known universe?"
Carl shook his head and laughed, "That's why I said you're too arrogant!"
"I'm stating the facts... there's no need to argue with you..."
Chu Yang waved his hand, "The reason I allow you to conduct your research is not only for the known universe, but also for the void!"
Karl's expression suddenly changed, and he once again experienced a violent emotional fluctuation because of Chu Yang.
"You...you want to explore the void?" Karl looked incredulous.
Even with his current level of research into the void, he dares not explore it, and can only pursue his "truth" by bringing down ultimate fear.
"The void is indeed of great value to me, but what I'm more curious about is history..." Chu Yang said with a smile.
Carl fell silent. Only now did he realize just how ambitious Chu Yang truly was!
He studied the void simply to prove that prehistoric civilizations once existed, to verify ultimate fear, and to pursue true "freedom."
In Karl's view, the known universe is nothing more than a prison of the gods, and all of us are shackled by them.
He wanted to break free of his shackles, escape his prison, and allow the entire universe to achieve absolute freedom through death.
To Chu Yang, Karl's theories were all utter nonsense!
Damn it...
They're already dead, and completely annihilated by the power of the void, so what's the point of talking about freedom?
Karl felt that his pursuit of truth was already crazy enough, but now it seemed that compared to Chu Yang, it was nothing.
The truth of history?
Even the discovery of some clues about prehistoric civilizations has already filled Karl with awe. How terrifying must the truth of history be?
Suppressing his somewhat chaotic thoughts, Carlson took a breath and said coldly, "Further words are useless. I want to see if the strongest god in the universe can stop the descent of the void!"
Chu Yang chuckled and said nothing more. Looking at the purplish-black energy surging in the void rift, he began to rapidly circulate the source energy within his body.
He had previously tried to probe with his soul power, but found that his soul power struggled to move through the void rift and he was unable to detect any signs of life.
But now, he could clearly feel several powerful auras coming from the depths of the void and rapidly approaching the rift.
Indeed, there were living beings in the void!
"Chu Yang, let us witness together the arrival of ultimate terror!"
Karl suddenly burst into maniacal laughter, his arms outstretched, and his phantom body began to fluctuate violently and erratically.
At the same time, the pages of the ancient book in front of him fluttered, emitting a burst of eerie blue light, and faintly emanating the sounds of countless vengeful ghosts and spirits howling in pain.
Runes surged on the cover of the ancient book, and a vast amount of soul power swept out, instantly enveloping Karl's illusory form.
Chu Yang narrowed his eyes. Through his powerful soul force, he discovered that the void creatures rushing towards the entrance of the rift actually had a connection with Karl.
It's as if...
Karl used that ancient book to control those void creatures!
"No wonder you dared to connect to the void with such impunity..."
Chu Yang narrowed his eyes. Even he was somewhat surprised that Karl actually had such a treasure in his possession.
He became even more convinced that the ancient book came from a prehistoric civilization, and he was certain that it was a treasure no less valuable than the Ascension Amulet!
Runes!
As Chu Yang's understanding of prehistoric civilizations deepened, he discovered a crucial question...
In this technologically advanced, godlike universe, the power that transcends technology seems to be runes!
However, almost no civilization has been able to decipher and control the runes.
So far, the only things Chu Yang has seen that can perfectly unleash the power of runes are the Ascension Amulet and the ancient book in Karl's hands.
Whichever one it is, they are all inextricably linked to prehistoric civilizations!
So...
It seems that after the runes were buried by history and the universe entered the end of the Dharma era, advanced intelligent beings developed technology in order to control the universe.
This conjecture made Chu Yang vaguely understand Karl's mad behavior.
If only the known universe has developed technology due to the Dharma-ending Age, then where does the power of the void beings come from?
It's probably related to runes!
In this light, Karl's claim that the known universe is a prison under the control of the gods seems not entirely unreasonable.
After all, without the constraints of gods and technology, once the void connects with the main universe, the power of runes may truly be able to rise again.
But the price... is far too high!
What's the point of making all living beings in the known universe perish, even if the power of runes rises again?
When that time comes, those who will control the universe will likely be nothing more than void creatures and phantoms like Karl.
As his thoughts raced, Chu Yang quietly awaited the arrival of the void creature.
The Shadow World is on the verge of complete annihilation. After the Void has devoured everything in the Shadow World, it will inevitably be insatiable.
That will be the time when the void launches a full-scale invasion of the main universe!
"Chu Yang, let's see who's really stepping stone for the other!"
Karl laughed maniacally, wanting to trample Chu Yang over him in order to pursue the truth he sought.
Chu Yang, on the other hand, wanted to step on him to glimpse the secrets deep within the void!
But what Karl didn't know was that Chu Yang had already connected to the bottom-level information exchange system using Pangu.
The scene here was also broadcast live to every corner of the universe!
Wherever there is technological coverage, all living beings in the known universe can watch the live broadcast!
However, people can't hear the sound, they can only see the images.
Even so, the fear brought by the void still lingered in everyone's hearts.
In just over half an hour, the entire Shadow World was completely annihilated by the power emanating from the void rift!
Countless eyes were focused on the slightly tiny figure in the virtual projection.
Only this supreme god of the universe could possibly prevent the descent of the void.
Regardless of the final outcome, when Chu Yang stepped forward and risked his life alone, he already deserved the worship of all living beings in the universe.
And so, in a short while, the immense power of faith filled the entire Ascension Amulet!
