Chapter 592: Die For Me
Outside the Solar System, at the edge of the barren and lifeless deep space.
Billions of shattered meteorite fragments floated in the pitch-black void; the once-shattered abandoned star region had long since lost all stellar vitality, leaving only cold cosmic dust and stagnant deathly silence.
This neglected corner of the void was precisely the secret lair where Galactus lay dormant to heal his wounds and accumulate destructive power.
Ever since he was severely injured by Loren's Power of Chronology origin last time and permanently shackled by temporal backlash, this cosmic-grade calamity had abandoned the reckless tactic of attacking Earth head-on, choosing instead to hide and lie dormant.
He no longer wantonly vented his destructive fury; like the most patient void hunter, he silently devoured all the energy in the surrounding barren star regions.
Quietly repairing his physical injuries, making up for the depletion of his origin, and precipitating the Authority of Destruction.
In the nearly eternal scale of the Universe, a mere few days were negligible, but with the enhancement of Galactus's terrifying cosmic origin recovery speed, his combat power had already recovered by seventy percent.
At this moment, there was not a shred of peace left in the entire dead star region.
Deep within the gloomy void, a turbid, dark, and pitch-black sea of fog covering tens of thousands of star regions pulsed slowly; in the center of the fog sea, an extremely towering humanoid phantom sat quietly coiled.
His body was comparable to a small star, and his entire body was wrapped in pitch-black destructive flames that annihilated everything. With every breath he took, large patches of surrounding cosmic dust and shattered stardust melted instantly, and even the void itself collapsed, wrinkled, and trembled along with it.
Galactus, one of the four native primordial creation deities of the Marvel Universe, was rooted in the origin of cosmic balance, representing the constant destruction and reincarnation of the Universe.
He was immortal and indestructible, neither born nor dying, drifting outside the rules of life and death. Ordinary cosmic attacks, rule scourges, and energy bombardments could not truly harm his core origin, let alone completely obliterate him.
Throughout the countless years before, powerhouses of the heavens emerged in large numbers, and star region overlords changed. Countless people tried to resist, seal, and repel Galactus, but never once had a single person truly managed to completely annihilate this cosmic calamity.
At most, they could only severely injure, force back, and seal him, waiting for the passage of time to see him revive once more and reenact the endless cycle of destruction.
This was a destiny engraved into the underlying rules of the Universe: destruction is eternal, and Galactus is indestructible.
At this moment, the dormant Galactus had already shed the wretchedness of his previous defeat; his shattered body was completely restored, his dimmed stellar origin burned fiercely once more, and the rule veins torn by the temporal wounds were also slowly healing under the nourishment of massive star region energy.
Only the temporal backlash brand left by Loren deep within his soul, like bone-eating maggots, constantly tore at his origin, causing every recovery of his power to be accompanied by bone-piercing excruciating pain.
The excruciating pain bred anger, and the shackles brewed murderous intent.
Galactus slowly opened his turbid eyes, and two pitch-black beams spanning the starry sky pierced through layers of the void, locking fiercely onto the coordinates of the azure Earth.
He could clearly perceive that that tiny star, which he had once regarded as an easy-to-reach ration, had recently given birth to an extremely bizarre and transcendent strand of origin aura.
That aura had broken free from the shackles of cosmic energy levels, jumped out of the bondage of rule tiers, and carried the terrifying characteristics of endless vitality, growing stronger the more it was frustrated, and infinite evolution, forcibly shaking the power balance of the entire star region.
That was Spiral Power, the evolutionary origin that broke destiny, subverted reincarnation, and was born anew against the trend.
Galactus, who was rooted in the destiny of cosmic destruction, instinctively produced extreme dread and abhorrence toward this infinitely evolving power.
"Ants... evolving against the trend..."
A low, hoarse roar that shook the sea of stars resounded through the void, Galactus's voice carrying an endless chill of destruction.
"This deity is dormant and recuperating, not lowering himself to argue with a mere variable like you, yet you dare to rise against the trend and breed a threat... Today, we shall settle accounts early, devour your origin, crush your Spiral Power, and completely erase this out-of-control variable!"
He had already prepared himself; once his origin completely recovered, he would cross realms on an expedition once more, crush Earth, devour the stars, wash away his past humiliation, and completely eradicate this strand of Spiral variables that threatened his own destiny.
But Galactus never expected that before he could take the initiative to go on an expedition, that figure who made him wary had already proactively torn through the void and killed his way alone into this dead star region.
"Hum—!"
An extremely dazzling silver-green stream of light instantly pierced through the void barrier on the outer periphery of the Solar System, breaking the balance of the entire dead star region.
Loren stood alone in the center of the vast void with his white robes fluttering. The silvery-white Power of Chronology origin surrounded his body, and the clear, emerald-green Spiral Power surged, rose, and bloomed wildly like a raging prairie fire.
After undergoing the forging and the awakening of the Spiral origin, his power system had already completed a subversive metamorphosis.
Previously, what he relied on were the multiverse-grade temporal laws and principles, the control and checks and balances at the rule level. Although he could check and balance gods, seal authorities, and reverse chronology, he was still within the framework of cosmic rules, following the hierarchical laws of strong-versus-weak game theory.
But at this moment, Spiral Power and temporal laws and principles perfectly blended, allowing him to completely leap out of the shackles of cosmic rules.
Chronology controls cause and effect of the past, while the spiral creates an infinite future.
One static and one dynamic, one regular and one breaking, one defensive and one offensive—these two top-tier origins intertwined and collided, giving birth to a brand-new power that surpassed all systems in this Universe.
Loren raised his eyes, his cold gaze looking straight ahead at the towering deity comparable to a star, with not a shred of fear in the depths of his eyes, only unwavering fighting spirit and the resoluteness to sever destiny.
"Galactus!!!"
He spoke softly, yet his voice shook through layers of the void, clearly transmitting into Galactus's ears, "You lie dormant in the star region, devour energy, and build momentum for revenge, thinking that by quietly waiting for recovery, you can once more overturn the starry sky, slaughter stars, and create chaos across the heavens."
"But you will never understand that the power of the new era has long since surpassed your cosmic destiny."
Galactus's towering body trembled slightly, and the pitch-black destructive flames surged by thirty percent, the surrounding void instantly collapsing and distorting: "Tiny wielder of chronology, surviving after a defeat, yet you dare to proactively provoke this deity?
Last time, this deity was momentarily careless and was injured by your temporal backlash. This time, I will devour and refine your physical body, origin, chronology, and so-called Spiral Power completely, plunging you into eternal damnation!"
In Galactus's cognition, no matter how bizarre or heaven-defying Spiral Power was, it was ultimately just a newborn power, unable to contend with himself who was rooted in the cosmic origin and wielded the cycle of destruction.
He was the established rule of the Universe, the concrete embodiment of destiny; the counter-trend evolution of mere ants was ultimately vulnerable.
"In the previous battle, I spared your life because I was wary of the collapse of cosmic rules and the emergence of catastrophes across the heavens."
Loren slowly raised his palm, the silver-green intertwined origin light in his palm growing increasingly fierce, and the fighting spirit around his body rising steadily, "But today, as I awaken the spiral, I have already broken the shackles of destiny and leaped out of the bondage of rules."
"The established cycle that the Universe is undying and Galactus is immortal is completely annulled starting from today."
"Today, I shall break fate against the trend and completely annihilate you, a cosmic calamity that has lasted for endless years!"
The moment his words fell, Loren no longer held anything back and proactively initiated the battle!
There was no probing, no foreshadowing, only a battle to break the game that forged straight ahead!
"Chronological retrocession, Spiral over-limit!"
The deafening roar of legal principles resounded through the sea of stars. The silver-green light around Lorensuddenly erupted, and the originally slender and introverted Spiral Power, under the blessing of his extremely firm combat will, instantly completed its first over-limit evolution!
The core true meaning of Spiral Power was never talent foundation or energy reserves, but rather the intensity of will, the obsession of protection, and the determination to break the game. The firmer the mind, the stronger the power; the deeper the obsession, the fiercer the evolution, with no upper limit and no ceiling.
In merely an instant, Loren's origin aura completed a violent surge. The foundation of the early multiverse tier was instantly broken through, and his combat power stacked layer upon layer, rising steadily, forcibly breaking through the original energy-level shackles and reaching a brand-new peak realm.
The energy of the entire dead star region was instantly hollowed out, and countless void origins, stellar debris, and cosmic spiritual power were all guided by Spiral Power, converging around Loren to transform into a boundless torrent of spiral energy.
Galactus's pupils contracted sharply, truly perceiving an extreme crisis for the first time.
The climbing speed of the human's power before him had already subverted the common sense of cosmic combat power.
Without cultivation method deduction, without resource piling, and without the precipitation of years, relying solely on a single obsession, he instantly broke through the limit and elevated infinitely. This heaven-defying characteristic completely restrained his destruction origin rooted in fixed cosmic rules.
"Illusionary evolution, vulnerable!"
In shock and anger, Galactus no longer held back, and his full-strength destructive power poured out instantly.
He raised his hand and struck with a palm; a pitch-black destructive giant palm spanning tens of thousands of light-years suddenly took shape, its palm carrying the cosmic-grade Authority of Destruction that annihilated all things. Wherever it passed, the void shattered inch by inch, energy was completely annihilated, and even the fabric of space-time was forcibly torn apart.
This was a full-strength strike from Galactus's seventy percent origin, enough to instantly crush dozens of stars and subvert an entire small star region. It far exceeded his previous tentative cross-border offensive and was the true world-destroying might of a cosmic deity.
Facing the destructive giant palm that covered the entire airspace, Loren did not dodge or evade; he stepped into the air and went straight up, single-handedly waging a counter-offensive against the deity!
"Temporal barrier, Spiral realm-breaking!"
The silvery-white Power of Chronology instantly unfolded multiple layers of space-time barriers, firmly locking the surrounding chaotic void to resist the erosion and annihilation of the destructive power;
the emerald-green Spiral Power condensed into an extreme light blade piercing through the sea of stars, not speaking of rule countering, not speaking of energy crushing, only speaking of breakthrough, shattering, and over-limit!
"Crack—!!!"
Under the cutting of the spiral light blade, the seemingly unsolvable cosmic destructive giant palm cracked, disintegrated, and dissipated layer by layer like shredded paper.
The Law of Destruction that Galactus relied upon to run rampant through the heavens completely lost its advantage of tier suppression in front of the infinitely evolving Spiral Power. Fixed cosmic rules could never withstand the heaven-defying power of continuous breakthroughs and continuous evolution.
"Impossible!!!"
Galactus's mind shook violently, his face full of disbelief, "My Authority of Destruction is a top-layer rule of the Universe! As an acquired variable, what right do you have to sever the innate power of the Heavenly Dao!"
"Because your power is an established destiny and ultimately has a limit."
Loren's figure flashed instantly, breaking through the shattered destructive palm force, and instantly approached Galactus's towering body. His gaze was stern, and every word was clanging: "And my spiral is infinite rebirth, with no end!"
The moment he closed in, the Power of Chronology in Loren's right hand condensed to the extreme, while the Spiral Power in his left hand fully erupted. With both origins combined, he smashed out with a punch!
Chronology locked and trapped the origin, while the spiral blasted and destroyed the foundation!
"Boom—!!!"
The Earth-shattering loud noise oscillated across the entire cosmic airspace, and the terrifying might far exceeding any stellar explosion swept in all directions instantly.
Galactus's massive body trembled violently, the thick destructive flames on his body's surface shattered layer by layer, and his hard divine body was forcibly smashed out with a huge depression by this punch. Pitch-black divine blood gushed out along the wound, instantly staining the entire void red.
The excruciating pain struck, plunging Galactus, who had rarely been injured in hundreds of millions of years, into complete fury and madness.
"You dare to harm my origin!!!"
He completely abandoned all forbearance, exhausted seventy percent of his recovered origin, and initiated a domain-wide destructive bombardment.
Countless pitch-black destructive beams gushed out from his body, dense and overwhelming, covering the entire star region and sealing all of Loren's dodging spaces. Every single beam possessed the terrifying power to shatter stars and cleave the Universe.
At the same time, he mobilized the collapse power of the entire star region, forcibly distorting space-time and sealing dimensions, attempting to imprison Loren in this void dead zone, using endless destruction to scour, grind down his origin, and annihilate his existence.
The entire star region completely degenerated into a destructive purgatory; the void constantly collapsed, reorganized, and collapsed again. The energy was violent and chaotic to the extreme, and an ordinary galaxy would be completely annihilated the instant it stepped in.
Facing the overwhelming desperate offensive, the fighting spirit in the depths of Loren's eyes grew increasingly fierce.
Spiral Power: the more desperate the situation, the more violent it became; the more pressure it bore, the more it evolved.
Under the life-and-death crisis and the crushing of destiny, his obsession with protection, determination to break the game, and conviction of victory all erupted. The emerald-green light around his body surged again, and the Spiral Power completed its second over-limit evolution!
The Spiral origin, which was originally just an auxiliary enhancement, now completely surpassed the Power of Chronology, becoming the core for main combat. The characteristic of infinite evolution was completely activated, automatically adapting to Galactus's rules of destruction, purposefully breaking through the other party's defense system, and disintegrating the other party's Authority of Destruction.
"This power... is it still rising?!"
Galactus was completely terrified. He could clearly perceive that his destructive offensive, which exhausted his origin, not only failed to harm Loren in the slightest, but instead continuously forced the other party's Spiral Powerto continuously break through and climb infinitely. The enemy's combat power surged every moment, with no end and no upper limit.
"Temporal reincarnation, Spiral fate-severing!"
Loren turned around in mid-air, forming hand seals with both hands. The Power of Chronology reversed the space-time of the entire battlefield, completely retroverting all of Galactus's scattered destructive energy and collapsed void power, causing it to backlash against his own body.
At the same time, endless Spiral Power condensed into an ultra-long holy spiral blade that pierced through the river of stars and reached the heavens and Earth.
This slash did not cut the body, nor did it cut energy; it specialized in severing destiny, destroying origins, and breaking indestructible rules!
Throughout countless years prior, no one could kill Galactus because he was protected by cosmic rules and possessed the destiny blessing of "destruction is undying"; all attacks would be offset, weakened, and repaired by the rules of cosmic balance.
But Spiral Power was inherently the ultimate evolutionary origin that broke cosmic rules and subverted the cycle of destiny, inherently restraining all established Heavenly Dao and constant destiny!
The dazzling emerald-green blade light crashed down, instantly splitting open layers of the void, penetrating the endless destructive black fog, and accurately slashing onto Galactus's core origin.
"Sizzle—!!!"
The harsh sound of rules shattering resounded through the sea of stars. The cosmic balance rules protecting Galactus's body shattered instantly, and for the first time, his undying origin rooted in the Universe showed a fundamental, unhealable crack.
"No—!!!"
Chapter 593: I Am the God of Technology (The End!)
Galactus let out the most shrill and agonizing roar in hundreds of millions of years, his towering body trembling violently as his core origin rapidly decayed, dimmed, and disintegrated.
He could clearly perceive that his connection with the fundamental rules of the Universe was being forcibly severed.
His innate immortal destiny was being completely torn apart, and the eternally enduring blessing of the Heavenly Dao was dissipating layer by layer.
"You... You are severing my Universe origin connection! Are you going to completely wipe me out?!"
Galactus panicked completely; his raging fury completely receded, leaving behind only a bone-deep terror.
He could be defeated, severely injured, or sealed, but he had never imagined that one day he would be completely wiped out and utterly perish in this Universe.
"You were born depending on the Universe and exist along with it, yet you view all living beings as mere ants, treat the stars as rations, and take pleasure in destruction."
Loren stepped through the air, slowly closing in, his silver-green intertwined eyes cold and resolute.
"Your existence itself is a catastrophe of the heavens and a calamity of all realms.
Today, I shall use the Spiral Power to break destiny, use the Power of Chronology to sever the samsara, and end your endless karmic debt of destruction!"
Knowing that conventional attacks could not completely wipe out Galactus, Loren no longer clung to physical slaughter or energy countering.
Instead, he activated the most domineering and thorough ultimate execution mode.
The Power of Chronology around his body fully unfolded, enveloping the entire star domain, freezing all spacetime flow, and locking down all escape routes of Galactus.
All origin repair channels and all rule self-healing abilities were sealed.
At the same time, the exquisitely condensed Spiral Powertransformed into hundreds of millions of delicate emerald silk threads.
Dense like a spiderweb, they instantly invaded every inch of texture, every wisp of origin, and every rule meridian of Galactus's massive divine body.
"Spiral Traceback, Over-limit Deconstruction!"
Loren let out a low shout, unleashing the ultimate profound mystery of the Spiral Power.
Since the root of Galactus's immortality was the blessing of the Universe's rules and the closed loop of destiny's samsara,
then he would use the infinitely evolving Spiral Power to deconstruct his origin layer by layer, dismantle his rules, and erase the mark of his existence.
From the surface body to the mid-layer divine power, and then to the deep-layer rule origin.
Finally, severing the top-layer connection of the Universe's balance, progressing step by step, and completely collapsing him.
Wisps of pitch-black destruction origin, under the deconstruction of the Spiral Power, were continuously purified, dissolved, and transformed.
The originally domineering and unsolvable destruction energy had its attributes forcibly reversed by the infinitely evolving Spiral origin, transforming into pure primitive spiritual energy of the Universe to feed back into the entire dilapidated star domain.
Galactus's body withered, dimmed, and shattered at a speed visible to the naked eye!
The towering divine body constantly shrank, and the vast destruction coercion continued to decay.
He struggled frantically, desperately driving his origin to resist, and mobilizing his remaining destruction power to frantically counterattack.
Attempting to break free from the Spiral deconstruction, break through the imprisonment of the Power of Chronology, and flee to the depths of the Universe to survive and prolong his life.
Yet the chronological cage set up by Loren was airtight and impeccable, and the Spiral deconstruction was ubiquitous and omnipresent.
The more he struggled, the faster his origin was consumed; the more he resisted, the harsher the Spiral deconstruction became.
The immortal rules of the Universe he relied on for survival were being completely cleared to zero, bit by bit and inch by inch.
"Stop it!!!"
Galactus's eyes split open, his soul trembled, and he let out a final roar.
"I am the origin of the Universe's balance! Those who destroy me shall inevitably suffer the backlash of the Universe!
The rules of the heavens will collapse, the samsara of the star domains will be disordered, and calamities of all realms will emerge in swarms—you cannot afford this price!!!"
This was his ultimate trump card, and also the fundamental reason why no one had dared to completely wipe him out for hundreds of millions of years.
Galactus represented the balance of destruction in the Universe; life and destruction depended on and restrained each other.
Completely wiping him out would inevitably lead to the imbalance of the rules of the entire Marvel Universe, the fracture of the samsara, and the breeding of endless unknown catastrophes.
Countless powerhouses of the heavens feared this price and could only choose to seal, repel, or keep him in check; no one dared to truly deal a fatal blow.
But Loren had long seen through the key to it all.
Previously, without the Spiral Power, he indeed would not have dared to completely wipe out Galactus, fearing it would trigger the collapse of the Universe and a rule catastrophe.
But at this moment, the Spiral Power possessed the heaven-defying characteristics of reconstructing, evolving, balancing all things, and creating something out of nothing.
He could completely use the Spiral origin to replace Galactus's original cosmic balance function.
Replacing the stale and rigid order of the destruction samsara with the newly born order of infinite evolution!
"In the past, no one in the heavens dared to kill you because no one could replace your balance function, and no one could undertake the vacancy of the Universe's rules."
Loren raised his hand, the silver-green origin in his palm growing increasingly brilliant, his voice resounding through the void, resolute and domineering.
"But today, I have the Spiral Power, and I can act on behalf of the Heavenly Dao to maintain balance!"
"It is time for your curtain call, Galactus."
As his words fell, Loren drove his entire body's origin to unleash the final execution!
"Chronological Sealing of the End, Spiral Rewriting of the Heavenly Dao!"
The ultimate Power of Chronology completely locked down Galactus's last trace of origin vitality, cutting off all possibilities of self-healing, counterattacking, and escaping.
The boundless Spiral Power erupted suddenly, completing the third ultimate over-limit evolution.
Transforming into an evolutionary torrent shrouding the entire star domain, it completely engulfed the body of Galactus, which was on the verge of disintegration.
Boom——!!!
The ultimate energy explosion resounded through the sea of stars, yet not a shred of destruction leaked outward.
All explosive energy, all surviving destruction origins and rule marks, were entirely swallowed, deconstructed, purified, and reshaped by the Spiral Power.
Amidst the endless brilliant emerald light, Galactus's massive body was annihilated inch by inch.
The immortal rules he rooted in the Universe shattered layer by layer, his destruction destiny that had lasted for endless years was completely severed, and all marks of his existence in this Universe were cleared to zero.
There were no earth-shattering aftermaths raging, no catastrophic backlash of a collapsing Universe, and no bizarre phenomena of rule disorders breeding.
What remained was only the curtain call of the stale destruction destiny and the rebirth of a brand-new Spiral order.
A moment later, the entire dead star domain completely returned to peace.
The cosmic disaster that once ran rampant across the heavens and could not be destroyed by anyone—Galactus—had utterly perished, completely dissipated, and ceased to exist entirely.
The unsolvable immortal myth of the Universe for hundreds of millions of years was completely ended by Loren's own hands today.
In the center of the void, Loren stood in white clothes, the silver-green light around his body slowly converging; although his aura was slightly overdrawn, it was incomparably steady and condensed.
The massive origin feedback from slaying Galactus poured into his body in a steady stream.
A massive amount of Universe balance origin, destruction rule insights, and star domain samsara profound mysteries.
Were all absorbed, transformed, purified, and thoroughly integrated into his own system by the Spiral Power.
At the same time, the Spiral Power replaced Galactus, undertaking the balance function of this Universe.
Perfecting the rule vacancy left by the fall of the destruction deity with the newly born order of infinite evolution.
The fundamental rules of the entire Marvel Universequietly iterated and sublimated.
Breaking free from the stale and rigid destruction samsara, it stepped into a brand-new era of infinite rebirth and continuous evolution.
Loren's aura skyrocketed accordingly, his foundation at the early Multiverse Grade completely stabilized, and he smoothly broke through the shackles, climbing to the mid Multiverse Grade!
His power was vigorous and heavy, boundless, far exceeding any moment in the past.
At the exact moment Galactus completely perished, a crisp and grand system prompt suddenly resounded in Loren's mind!
