Chapter 151: S.W.O.R.D. Scared Silly! Rayne's Dimensional Reduction Suppression!
The five great cosmic entities of the Universe were definitely the most top-tier and invincible existences in the main Universe.
Galactus was even more of an outstanding figure among them, daring to go head-to-head with "Oblivion" even in his prime.
How could the power bestowed by a deity possibly be weak?
The Silver Surfer, stepping on a surfboard, steadily stepped into the single-Universe level of combat power, and was by no means comparable to ordinary Father levels.
However, the Earth-shattering and World-destroying violent strike hit Rayne's shield, yet it failed to even produce a single faint ripple.
The S.W.O.R.D. Agents in the space fortress were all dumbfounded.
Nick Fury was even more full of doubt about life.
Hei Ludan instantly understood in his heart that he had made a huge mistake.
Using mortal horizons to measure Rayne was simply extremely foolish.
Rayne was fundamentally not a human, but a monster draped in human skin!
An attack that S.W.O.R.D. tried its best to block couldn't even bubble up in front of the magic casually cast by others.
The vastly different strength gap between the two sides made the spy leader unable to help letting out a long sigh.
Rayne had no time at all to care about Hei Ludan's psychological trauma.
He quietly gazed at the Silver Surfer opposite him.
Today's Rayne was no longer who he used to be, and his insight was exceptionally sharp.
At a glance, he could tell that the enemy's source of power was entirely within the skateboard under his feet, and it seemed endless.
However, in Rayne's view, cultivation purely infused by external force ultimately fell short compared to the skills he cultivated by getting up early and working in the dark.
"Silver Surfer, stop now, and I'll leave you a way out." Rayne kindly persuaded.
As the saying goes, beating a dog still depends on its Master.
If Galactus was truly angered, Rayne himself wouldn't be scared, but it wasn't impossible for the other party to fling Earth away in a fit of rage.
Besides, the five major deities had some friendship with each other; in case Galactus called for people to help, it would always be a troublesome matter.
Therefore, being able to make the other party retreat in the face of difficulties was naturally the best policy.
Regrettably, the alien envoy did not appreciate the kindness.
After being modified, the Silver Surfer's style of action was completely like a cold machine.
"The great Galactus has locked onto this place."
"You are redundant trouble."
"And my task is to clear away trouble."
Before the words fell, he abruptly bent his knees and squatted down.
On the surface of the silver skateboard, the violent energy churned violently like boiling water.
The surrounding Universe space was trembling along with it.
Massive and pure cosmic mighty forces gathered crazily, forcibly whipping up a terrifying energy storm in the vacuum.
Following closely, a brilliant ray compressed to the limit burst forth violently!
Because the pure energy flow was overly condensed, it resembled a materialized giant blue pillar reaching the sky, smashing straight towards Rayne's face.
The violent coercion even caused the surrounding brilliant starlight to be forcibly suppressed until it lost all light.
"Ding!"
"Your 'Bolts of Balthakk' smelled a mouth-watering top-grade delicacy."
"Your 'Bolts of Balthakk' are drooling with greed, frantically begging to feed."
"If it is allowed to devour the energy before it, the skill will awaken the 'Illusion' special effect!"
The pleasant system prompt tone suddenly exploded.
Rayne raised his brows slightly, blooming with joy in his heart.
That's great! With so much pure energy, why not go feed the Master instead of running over to Earth to deliver takeout? Free benefits delivered to your door shouldn't be refused.
"Bolts of Balthakk!"
Rayne opened his lips slightly.
A dazzling golden light suddenly bloomed in his palm, resembling a meteor cutting through the long sky.
The golden lightning shot out, but instead of erupting with destructive power, it acted like a flexible vine, tightly entwining around the thick blue energy pillar.
It was simply like bone-attaching maggots, desperately sucking the nutrients from within.
The Silver Surfer's expression changed abruptly.
Within his heart, which had no ripples, monstrous waves were instantly stirred up.
"What kind of bizarre method is this!"
He horrifyingly noticed that his own energy was frantically leaking out like a breached flood!
The most fatal thing was that the suction couldn't be cut off at all.
The energy supply speed of the skateboard under his feet faintly failed to keep up with the rate of loss!
Having served deities for hundreds or thousands of years, today was the first time he had ever encountered such an evil matter!
Even when Galactus extracted power personally, he had never seen such an unreasonable stance.
What kind of monster was this human before him!
What on Earth kind of evil art was this!
The Silver Surfer desperately wanted to gather his power back, but he discovered in terror that he completely couldn't do it.
The dazzling golden lightning spread all the way up along the energy pillar, greedily devouring everything.
The lightning became thicker and more dazzling, whereas the skateboard under the Silver Surfer's feet grew increasingly dim in light.
"Want to run now? It's too late."
"It seems your foundation isn't endless after all."
Rayne bantered with a smile.
However, Rayne also knew very well how thick the envoy's foundation was.
The magic in his hand had already transmitted a feeling of fullness of being "too full to eat".
After just a few seconds, the Bolts of Balthakk reached the limit of devouring.
The restraint was lifted, and the Silver Surfer finally regained his freedom.
But not only did he not quickly retreat, he was completely infuriated instead.
Transforming into a silver lightning bolt that the naked eye couldn't capture, the Silver Surfer closed in and struck out with a devastating heavy punch straight at Rayne's vital points.
Rayne merely slightly side-stepped, casually dodging the fatal edge.
"As a dignified deity's envoy, you actually resort to close combat; that is not the demeanor a top expert should have."
Rayne's palm erupted once again with dazzling golden light.
The well-fed Bolts of Balthakk transformed into a golden cannonball, slamming solidly onto the Silver Surfer's chest.
Dazzling golden patterns instantly spread rapidly across the silver skin.
The envoy was struck as if by lightning, his entire body freezing stiff in the vacuum, unable to move.
Even more terrifyingly, the golden patterns went all the way down, directly invading the skateboard beneath his feet.
This cosmic supreme treasure bestowed by a deity actually cracked with fine lines on its surface!
The violent cosmic energy spewed outward frantically along the cracks.
Losing his source of power, the Silver Surfer's aura instantly withered to the extreme, becoming extremely weak.
Rayne disgustedly waved his sleeve.
An overwhelming mighty force smashed down abruptly, and the Silver Surfer was forcibly blasted away like a cannonball out of a chamber.
In the blink of an eye, he flew tens of thousands of kilometers away, completely vanishing into the end of the dark and deep starry sea.
"Go back and tell Galactus to stop coming to Earth to make trouble for himself."
Leaving behind a harsh word, Rayne's figure flashed, directly disappearing into the boundless space.
Leaving only the S.W.O.R.D. members in the entire space fortress staring dumbfounded at the starry sky that had returned to silence.
What on Earth is going on?
Is it over just like that?
A monster strong enough to destroy the World was dismissed with a wave of the hand?
Has the World become too magical?
The elite Agents in the fortress were all dumbstruck like wooden chickens, their worldviews shattered all over the floor.
When the fight first started, they had thrown humanity's most cutting-edge ultimate weapons along with all kinds of alien black technologies at the enemy, yet they didn't even break the enemy's defense.
When it came to Rayne's hands, just casually throwing a magic spell ended the battle?
Many people didn't even see the details of the fight clearly before the crisis was inexplicably resolved.
Isn't the gap in combat power way too exaggerated!
What on Earth are everyone's painstaking efforts in doing scientific research and building weapons trying to achieve?
It would be better to collectively resign and go to Kamar-Taj to apprentice and learn magic instead!
Having been through this, all S.W.O.R.D. Agents' outlooks on life were completely reshaped.
Chapter 152: Galactus Descends! The Deity Awakens!
Silver Surfer scuttled away in disgrace, causing not the slightest ripple in Earth's defense line.
If one had to say what changed, it was that after witnessing Ryan's heaven-defying combat power, the high-level officials of various countries finally harbored a glimmer of hope for survival in their hearts.
The atmosphere of despair was swept away, and the global situation gradually stabilized.
However, the various changes in the outside world could not affect Galactus deep in the starry sky in the slightest.
He seemed to have fallen into some kind of deep sleepwalking state, hurtling straight toward the Solar System at a terrifying speed that completely defied physical common sense.
Wherever he passed along the way, whether asteroids or meteorites, they were all swallowed up in one gulp, forcibly biting out a spotless vacuum zone in the deep sea of stars.
Before long, this ancient deity finally charged to the outer periphery of Earth.
Humans on the surface of the Planet discovered in panic that the scorching Sun above their heads had vanished out of thin air.
Above the firmament, it was as if a sky-covering starry behemoth had appeared, and the sky darkened rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The eerie and gloomy black mist was like ink dripping into clear water, spreading wildly in near-Earth orbit, looking as though it was about to tightly wrap around the entire blue Planet.
The panic of the apocalypse instantly detonated globally.
Just as all civilians were despairing and waiting for death,
Hum!
A dazzlingly brilliant expanse of pure gold brilliance suddenly bloomed high beyond the nine heavens, resembling the first ray of dawn tearing through the long night.
The black fog filling the sky seemed to have suffered some kind of fatal blow, instantly retreating backward like a tidal wave.
The globe was in an uproar, with billions of people completely unable to figure out what kind of massive commotion was happening in the sky.
Outside the space defense line.
Ryan stood suspended in mid-air, facing Galactus directly, his expression exceptionally solemn.
Facing one of the five major deities of the Universe, no one dared to lower their guard.
Only by being personally on the front lines could one truly experience the devastating oppressive feeling brought by Galactus.
The monster was simply too massive, resembling an inseparable clump of heavy dark clouds, and its size was fully comparable to an entire Planet.
In comparison, the endlessly costly S.W.O.R.D. fortress was simply like a grain of sand beside an elephant's foot.
As for Ryan, he was even more insignificant, not even counting as a speck of dust.
Facing the exaggerated size difference, the Agents inside the S.W.O.R.D. fortress were all suppressed to the point where they couldn't even breathe evenly.
Only Ryan was as steady as Mount Tai, with his expression merely turning a bit more serious.
"Galactus!"
"Get out immediately!"
"Earth is not your food!"
Ryan shouted angrily. The sound wave wrapped in majestic divine power ignored the vacuum environment, sweeping across more than half of the Solar System like a violent gale.
Whether on the surface or in the space fortress, everyone heard it clearly.
Nick Fury's single eye widened in shock, his face filled with horror.
The giant monster actually had a name?
Galactus? That really is easy to understand!
Having witnessed with his own eyes the celestial bodies along the way being chewed into slag, the black-hearted Agent leader only felt his hands and feet turn cold.
The existence of Galactus simply crushed humanity's existing scientific system—its size was comparable to a Planet, yet it couldn't generate a single shred of gravitational field, and could even completely ignore the Sun's pull! What the hell kind of thing was it!
Can Ryan really hold his ground?
Global humanity could only wager all their lives and fortunes on Ryan alone.
Unfortunately, the situation did not develop in an optimistic direction.
The black substance spreading from Galactus's body was like countless octopus tentacles, once again grabbing toward Earth in an overwhelming manner, completely ignoring Ryan's warning.
Ryan furrowed his brow tightly. He firmly did not believe that a dignified deity would not understand human speech; at the realm of deities, even simple mental power communication had no barriers.
The opponent was still brainlessly pushing forward flatly, which left only two explanations: either they completely looked down on Ryan, or their consciousness was still in a deep sleep, purely acting on feeding instincts.
Ryan leaned more toward the latter.
Immediately afterwards, an Earth-shattering and heaven-destroying pulling force descended with a bang.
Various artificial satellites in Earth's orbit instantly lost control, spinning one after another as they were forcibly dragged into the crimson core in Galactus's abdomen.
Ryan's gaze turned cold. It seemed that unless he was shown a thing or two, this big guy truly wouldn't know what was good for him!
"Ding!"
"System detected abnormal spatial distortion!"
"You are currently within a deity's exclusive feeding domain and are about to suffer dimensional-level traction!"
"Your 'Dimensional Blade' has sensed homologous laws, getting so excited it's about to take off on the spot, eagerly wanting to clash head-on with the powerful enemy's domain!"
Ryan also felt a set of aching teeth. As expected of a creation deity, to eat a meal it actually carried its own gravitational field and spatial domain; being strong truly meant being willful.
However, if you want to eat Earth, first ask the blade in my hand if it agrees!
Ryan spread his palms, and two completely transparent glass sharp blades formed instantly. His arms suddenly exerted force, and two streams of light blasted straight out!
Galactus's gravitational field was indeed terrifying; the Dimensional Blade followed the formidable suction force, heading straight toward the crimson core at a transcendent speed that broke limits.
Rumble!
Two completely different spatial laws violently collided. The surrounding Universe dimensions violently oscillated like boiling water.
Chaotic energy currents ran wild everywhere, even causing the black fog tentacles on Galactus's periphery to look as though they had been struck by lightning, instantly losing their vitality.
Immediately after, another Earth-shaking loud noise rang out!
The Dimensional Blade exploded directly inside Galactus's core, triggering a terrifyingly peerless spatial storm.
Hundreds of millions of incomparably sharp dimensional fragments were like bone-carving sharp knives, frantically butchering inside Galactus's body.
"Roar——!"
A violent roar resembling a primordial behemoth's dying struggle suddenly reverberated throughout the entire galaxy.
The civilians on the surface who had just been cheering instantly stiffened.
Everyone felt as though their hearts were gripped by a cold giant hand, as if they were walking alone in the deep mountains and old forests late at night, only to turn around and run into a fierce white-browed tiger.
A bone-chilling cold rushed straight up the spine to the crown of the head.
Ryan's gaze grew even sharper, staring fixedly at the powerful enemy ahead.
The black fog scattering across Galactus's body surface rapidly rolled backward, compressing in the blink of an eye into a pitch-black celestial body that looked like a physical entity.
Ryan was very clear in his heart: the cosmic behemoth had completely awakened!
At the same moment.
Seated upright within the New York Sanctum, Sorcerer Ancient One was tilting her head to gaze at the fierce battle in outer space. A massive golden magic array flickered in and out of existence under her control, tightly protecting the atmosphere.
Witnessing the scene just then, Ancient One's face was as gloomy as water.
She had thought that the ultimate kill move unleashed by Ryan could already be considered outperforming the predecessor, mostly likely capable of inflicting heavy damage on the enemy.
Only until now did she suddenly realize that mortals ultimately still underestimated the foundation of deities.
Not only did Ryan's attack fail to force the opponent back, but instead it woke up an even more terrifying Destroyer!
The real trouble was only just beginning now.
Chapter 153: The Starving Deity Completely Breaks Down!
Galactus spends the vast majority of his time in slumber.
A dead Universe is sealed within his body, keeping him forever trapped in the torment of endless hunger.
Usually, after devouring a Planet, he falls into a dormant state, acting purely on feeding instincts.
The reason he took Silver Surfer as a herald was to have a scout to pave the way while he was in a sleepwalking state.
Now his scout has been beaten to an unknown state of life and death, drifting somewhere in some corner of the Universe.
The blinded behemoth could only foolishly charge all the way over, only to have his sweet dream directly interrupted by Ryan.
For anyone, being forcibly awakened while sleeping soundly is definitely not a good experience.
Not to mention having to face the awkward predicament of his number one minion missing the moment he opens his eyes.
Galactus instantly fell into a berserk state!
"Courting death!"
Without any nonsense, nor needing to find any excuses.
The boundless black divine power instantly converged into a giant hand that blotted out the sky, fiercely grabbing toward Ryan.
The world-destroying pressure made even Ryan's expression change slightly.
"Shield of the Seraphim!"
Ryan quickly chanted the incantation, and four dazzling golden shields instantly surrounded his body.
Facing a creator deity head-on for the first time, he had to be more cautious. The overlay of fourfold defenses was enough to provide indestructible shelter.
"Creak!"
The pitch-black giant hand of divine power ruthlessly and tightly clenched, and a teeth-aching sound of metal tearing suddenly erupted in the vacuum.
Ryan raised his brows slightly, a trace of surprise flashing in his eyes.
It was not that the enemy's strength was too strong.
Quite the contrary, the deity's attack was simply too weak!
It simply didn't live up to the prestige of a creator deity!
No wonder cosmic behemoths often become the background boards for major superheroes, getting beaten up everywhere.
When he had an empty stomach, his combat power was indeed quite pathetic.
The black giant hand of divine power looked exceptionally ferocious, as if it was using all its might to squeeze and knead frantically.
However, Ryan was as steady as Mount Tai.
The golden shields around him didn't even ripple in the slightest, calm to the extreme.
"What is the situation?"
Galactus was completely dumbfounded.
Compared to a divine body as massive as an entire Planet, Ryan couldn't even count as a speck of dust.
Yet it was precisely such a speck of dust that casually blocked a fatal blow?
It was simply sheer absurdity!
Galactus simply refused to believe it. The massive black divine power within his body surged wildly like a breached flood, continuously pouring into the giant hand.
An even more terrifying squeezing force poured onto Ryan frantically.
Ryan remained calm and collected, without even blinking an eyelid.
"Go to hell!"
Galactus was completely infuriated, letting out a roar that shook the sea of stars.
Striking consecutively without even harming a single hair of a mortal meant his face had been completely lost.
If he encountered other deities like 'Eternity' in the future, what face would he have to call himself the ruler of the Universe?
Not even being able to crush a carbon-based life form, if word got out, people would definitely laugh their heads off!
No, he absolutely could not let the human in front of him go today; otherwise, where would his majesty remain!
Galactus gnashed his teeth in his heart, making a clicking sound.
The immense power hidden within his body, like dark clouds at the center of a thunderstorm, compressed and converged wildly.
The terrifying fluctuations caused the surrounding stars to begin shivering.
Numerous sharp spikes suddenly grew on the surface of the divine power giant hand, looking increasingly terrifying and grim, and even the void was oppressed to tremble violently.
"It seems we can't communicate properly?"
Ryan sighed helplessly.
The behemoth opposite did not answer at all, only intent on desperately driving his divine power, determined to grind Ryan into minced meat.
"Ding!"
"Your 'Bolts of Balthakk' has sensed that you are in a dangerous situation, and feels extremely arrogant and furious!"
"A master's humiliation is a servant's death! Your 'Bolts of Balthakk' has entered the berserk master-protecting mode, and its power has ushered in a geometric multiple surge!"
Ryan raised his brows, too lazy to waste more words.
Dazzling golden lightning suddenly lit up in his palm.
The law of thunder, pure to the extreme, turned into a shooting star and directly blasted out!
The dazzling golden light instantly spread wildly across the black giant hand.
Hearing only a loud rumble, the giant hand condensed from divine power collapsed inch by inch, turning into countless black particles that quickly dissipated in the vacuum.
Not only that, but the berserk golden lightning, as if it had grown eyes, followed the trajectory of the flowing divine power and climbed straight toward Galactus's main body!
"What in the world!"
"It's actually the law of thunder! And its level is ridiculously high!"
Galactus cried out in shock.
How could a mere mortal control such Earth-shattering power of law? If struck by the eerie lightning, he would definitely shed a layer of skin!
In his panic, Galactus immediately cut off his divine power output, attempting to protect himself.
Unfortunately, how could Ryan's magic be so easily evaded?
The golden lightning, following the residual traces of the void like bone-gnawing maggots, lunged straight at Galactus's massive body.
Amidst the thick black fog, Galactus's expression was so gloomy that it was about to drip water.
He hurriedly mobilized a massive amount of divine power, condensing a defensive barrier as heavy as a mountain in front of him.
Bolts of Balthakk fiercely struck the barrier.
The divine power defense line, claimed to be indestructible, actually began to collapse violently like residual snow under the scorching sun, continuously turning into black dust and being wiped out into ashes.
Galactus's eyeballs were almost popping out!
How could the attack power be so terrifying!
Even if he was in a weakened, starving state, the combat power he unleashed should definitely far exceed ordinary Allfather-tier powerhouses, yet it collapsed at a single touch?
"Zzzt!"
The golden lightning tore through the defense line like a withered tree and decaying wood, striking Galactus solidly.
The cosmic behemoth was instantly shocked into full-body spasms, and his painful roars resounded through the void.
"Bastard!"
"If I weren't starving, crushing you to death would be ten thousand times easier than crushing a bug!"
While struggling in pain, Galactus roared angrily, his tone actually carrying a bit of grievance.
Ryan listened with a head full of black lines.
They were fighting, could he be a bit more serious! The dignified one of the top five creator deities could actually shout out such a clumsy excuse as 'not full' in public, his prestige had dropped all over the floor, alright!
"Galactus!"
"Get out of the Solar System immediately!"
"Earth will definitely not become your ration!"
Ryan shouted sternly, his voice rolling in waves.
Although Galactus was continuously twisted by the golden lightning, he had no intention of retreating at all.
"Daydreaming!"
"Today, I must devour the Planet in front of me!"
"Daring to anger a deity must be repaid with destruction! My divine power is endless, and your magic will always have a time when it runs dry!"
Galactus cursed, gritting his teeth.
"Even if we fight a battle of attrition, I will wear you to death alive!"
Having his face shaved publicly by a mortal, Galactusburned with anger, and absolutely refused to tuck his tail and run away so crestfallen.
Even with an empty stomach, he had to make Ryan pay a bloody price.
However, after finishing his harsh words, Galactus couldn't help muttering inwardly.
Ryan's magic was simply fiendish to the extreme.
Even a body purely constructed of divine power could clearly feel the bone-deep excruciating pain.
Ordinary magic could simply not break through a deity's defense.
The human in front of him was truly a freak. If they continued to stubbornly fight it out, would he overturn in a drainage ditch?
Beneath his berserk exterior, a trace of anxiety unexpectedly arose in Galactus's heart for the first time.
Inside Earth, the fully prepared Sorcerer Ancient Onewatched in utter bewilderment.
All defensive magic arrays of Kamar-Taj were running at full power, burning money and energy crazily every single second, and everyone had even prepared their wills.
As a result, they were just shown a farce? A dignified member of the five major deities, with a full-prestige world-destroying strike, was actually casually and lightly dispersed by Ryan?
Ancient One knew very well that although the starry sky behemoth in front of her was not at its peak, it had definitely touched the threshold of the single-Universelevel, and crushing any life Planet at will was as easy as pie.
Facing such terrifying pressure, Ryan actually won very easily?
Kamar-Taj had never produced such a supreme freak in hundreds of years!
On the space battlefield, Ryan continuously urged Bolts of Balthakk for crazy output while keeping an eye on the formidable enemy's movements.
The black fog around the giant god should have grown sparser, but Ryan keenly sensed a trace of abnormality.
The old monster wasn't right!
Ryan was shocked to realize that the opponent was actually secretly and crazily swallowing the thunder law he released!
Chapter 154: Earth-shattering Astral Giant Blade! Even Gods Can Be Driven to Doubt Their Existence!
"Hey, big guy!" Ryan scoffed, "For a god standing at the pinnacle of the entire Universe, you actually stoop to stealing someone else's skill. Aren't you a bit too shameless?"
Caught red-handed, Galactus didn't feel embarrassed at all.
"Since you've seen through it, there's no need to hide it anymore."
Endless black fog churned violently within the giant god's body, and the residual golden lightning was instantly swept away and completely digested.
Immediately afterward, a pitch-black energy countless times more terrifying than before surged across the entire starry sky like a volcanic eruption.
Ryan knew very well in his heart that this wasn't some kind of skill feedback, but rather the enemy using the pure energy just absorbed to slightly alleviate the hunger of the dead Universe within his body, thereby liberating more of his suppressed primordial divine power.
Galactus's aura skyrocketed, steadily stepping into a higher-tier dimension!
With his power surging, Galactus instantly felt full of confidence, and his self-esteem swelled on the spot.
"Mortal, I'll give you one last chance now." A majestic voice shook the starry river, "Swear your allegiance and become the most loyal apostle under my command, and I can make an exception to spare the blue Planet beneath your feet."
Galactus looked down arrogantly at the human who looked like dust before him.
In his view, being a dog for the five major gods was supreme glory that countless living beings in the Universecould only dream of, and the human before him definitely wouldn't have the guts to refuse.
Ryan rolled his eyes straight up, looking at the giant object ahead as if looking at a fool.
"Are you too big, so your intelligence got squeezed out completely?"
Too lazy to talk nonsense, Ryan swept his palms sharply across his chest. Two completely transparent glass blades suddenly emerged.
Having been flatly refused and even insulted in his intelligence, Galactus flew into a rage: "You ungrateful wretch! Do you want to watch your home Planet turn to ashes with your own eyes?"
"My turf, I will naturally guard it." Ryan's face was frosted with coldness, "Want me to be your dog? You don't even deserve it! If you have the guts, bring it on!"
Before the words finished, the Dimensional Blades in Ryan's hands began to grow wildly!
In just a few breaths, the two transparent blades actually expanded to an exaggerated size comparable to an entire Planet!
Compared to the sky-covering giant weapons, Ryan was so tiny that he looked like an ant holding two pillars reaching the sky, and the visual incongruity was extreme.
However, the watching mages didn't have time to process the incongruity; everyone was scared out of their wits.
Sorcerer Ancient One stared at the magical mirror with wide eyes, completely frozen.
The consumption of space magic has always been terrifying. Condensing ordinary Dimensional Blades was already extremely exhausting.
Now Ryan actually conjured up two Planet-sized super lethal weapons directly?
If it were Ancient One herself, she would probably be instantly drained of all magic power and turned into a dried corpse before even condensing the hilt.
Could this kid's magic power reserve be infinite?
It's simply outlandishly absurd!
"Ding!"
"Your 'Dimensional Blade' has crazily absorbed energy and broken through the physical limit!"
"The 'Dimensional Blade' is thirsty and eager to split the eyesore ahead in half!"
Hearing the system prompt, Ryan didn't hesitate at all.
In a weightless space environment, wielding Planet-sized giant blades took virtually no effort.
He exerted force with both arms, and two transparent sharp edges that tore through the river of stars slashed directly across the waist!
Seeing the world-destroying giant blade slashing straight at him, Galactus was scared out of his wits.
A fatal strike constructed purely from space laws wouldn't necessarily kill a god in one blow, but slashing against a divine body condensed purely from divine power would definitely cause excruciating, soul-tearing pain.
Galactus hurriedly mobilized all the great might throughout his body, desperately condensing a huge, angular black divine power heavy shield in front of him.
The two Planet giant blades slashed down fiercely!
Slash——!
Like a hot table knife slicing through a piece of soft butter.
The high-level divine power heavy shield, which claimed to be able to withstand black hole tearing and immune to galaxy collapse, couldn't even last half a second before being instantly cut into two!
Galactus was dumbfounded on the spot, his mindset completely collapsed!
It couldn't be defended against at all! How could it be worse than a piece of paper!
A mere mortal living in a remote galaxy, even if he mastered magic, why could he burst out with destructive power that defied the common sense of the Universe?
Pure physics and space cutting actually ignored even the basic laws of the Universe?
Since his birth, Galactus had seen countless brilliant cosmic overlords, but he had never seen such an unreasonable freak!
It was simply like a cheating player unbound by the rules of the Universe!
Does this make any sense?
Could it be that during this period of his slumber, the underlying code of the Universe was secretly tampered with?
Before Galactus could recover from the shock of his worldview collapsing, the cold transparent blade easily cut through the defense line, smoothly sinking into the giant god's massive body.
The terrifying pain deep into the soul instantly plunged the cosmic giant god into an uncontrollable, frenzied tremor.
What kind of freak was Ryan in front of him?
He couldn't beat him, absolutely couldn't beat him!
After weighing his options, Galactus decisively abandoned the dignity of a god.
His massive body began to shrink rapidly, and the endless black fog squeezed inward frantically, turning heavy and viscous in the blink of an eye.
Ryan keenly perceived the abnormality.
He casually flicked out two transparent Dimensional Blades.
The world-destroying space cutting whistled away, but it was like cutting into thick superglue.
The deeper the blade went, the more exaggerated the resistance, and finally it completely stagnated, getting stuck halfway.
Not only that, the violent Bolts of Balthakk followed closely behind, but it also sank like a stone into the sea, unable to even stir up a single spark of electricity.
"Interesting."
A flash of surprise crossed the depths of Ryan's eyes.
As expected of one of the five major cosmic gods, he really had a few tricks up his sleeve.
Ever since he learned the indestructible Dimensional Blade, it was the first time it had been blocked head-on.
Even a whole solid Planet would be cut in two instantly, but it just couldn't cut through the viscous defense layer before him.
At this moment, Galactus had compressed his volume to a tenth of its size.
The black matter around his body had condensed to an incredible degree, turning into a pure black sphere floating in a vacuum, and even light shining on it would be instantly swallowed.
If it weren't for spiritual lock-on, the naked eye couldn't even capture his existence in deep space.
"As a dignified creation god, can't beat them and now you shrink into your shell like a turtle?"
Ryan's tone was very calm, but his words were piercing, "No wonder you always end up as the combat power unit of the entire Universe, your defense is indeed quite proficient."
Faced with the relentless ridicule, Galactus played dead to the end, refusing to drop his defense no matter what.
As long as he wasn't hacked to death, what did losing a little face matter?
Ryan probed for several rounds in succession, bombarding with various high-tier magic in turn, but all of them failed to break the defense.
If this old monster was determined to be a turtle with its head tucked in, unless his power presented an absolute crushing posture, he simply couldn't crack the shell.
He couldn't just stare blankly at a giant turtle in space, could he?
"Ding!"
"Your 'Crimson Contract Chains' have sensed special divine power, and their internal structure has mutated!"
"The skill has completed targeted evolution, unlocking brand-new special effects. Please experience it yourself, Host."
"Your 'Crimson Contract Chains' send celebratory greetings: Dumbfounded, right? Grandpa is red now, and stronger too!"
A series of prompt sounds suddenly exploded in his mind.
Ryan had black lines all over his head, almost choked by a mouthful of old blood.
His own skill wasn't just a warmonger, now it even learned to talk trash?
Having no time to deal with the system's mischief, Ryan moved his mind, and ten chains as thick as pillars burst out from behind him instantly.
The appearance of the upgraded chains changed drastically, completely losing their once crystal-clear texture, replaced by a pure blood-red that made souls tremble.
Just taking a glance would make one's mind unconsciously fall into trembling.
Ryan didn't hesitate, wildly driving the magic power within his body.
The ten blood-red chains grew wildly in the wind, becoming as thick as dozens of towering mountain peaks in the blink of an eye, carrying a world-destroying momentum as they lunged straight toward the black sphere.
The chains were like face-huggers with eyes, tightly wrapping around the pitch-black sphere, their sharp tips ignoring the viscous defense layer and piercing straight into the interior.
Chapter 155: Even Gods Play the Coward? The Trump Card That Makes Gods Tremble!
Slurp——!
A bizarre sound resembling drinking a beverage with a straw unexpectedly came from the vacuum.
Countless thin black lines surfaced on the surface of the blood-red chains.
Galactus's origin divine power was actually forcibly extracted!
A massive and supremely pure amount of divine power frantically poured backward along the chains.
In just a single instant, the energy Ryan had previously consumed was completely replenished, and he was even bloated and aching all over, as if every single cell was about to burst on the spot.
While Ryan was feeling so good he was about to ascend to heaven, Sorcerer Ancient One on Earth was left dumbfounded.
The Old Sorcerer stared fixedly at the magic mirror in front of him, abruptly magnifying the image, his vision locked firmly onto the ancient runes flashing on the blood-red chains.
"Impossible!"
Ancient One's breathing completely lost its rhythm, her voice even carrying a hint of cracking, "The origin divine power of Cyttorak, the ruler of the Crimson Universe?!"
The Old Sorcerer's worldview collapsed with a bang at this moment.
The crimson mighty power that transcended the main Universe and surpassed the five major gods—other than Cyttorak himself, the entire Universe simply could not find a second person who could invoke even a fraction of it!
Ryan was clearly practicing Vishanti white magic, so how on Earth could he mobilize the core trump card of the Crimson Ruler?
Could the young man be the reincarnation of an ancient demon god?
Simply absurd!
The Crimson Ruler was living completely fine, what kind of reincarnation would he undergo!
The scene, which completely violated the common sense of the Universe, was like a heavy hammer ruthlessly smashing the truths Ancient One had guarded for hundreds of years.
In outer space, Galactus's size once again uncontrollably shrank by a large circle.
This time it wasn't him actively compressing his defense line, but rather his body withering due to too much divine power being sucked away.
The blood-red chains connecting the two had already been dyed pure black by the massive amount of divine power, and the suction speed still showed no trend of slowing down.
Faced with the desperate situation of being sucked dry alive immediately, the cosmic giant that had been playing dead finally couldn't sit still.
Fortunately, his ancient foundation was unfathomable, and massive amounts of divine power continuously gushed out from the depths of his origin to fill the vacancy, thus avoiding the fate of turning into a mummified corpse on the spot.
Staring at the blood-red chains entangling his entire body, deep panic unprecedentedly surfaced in the giant's eyes.
He recognized the terrifying energy before him!
It was definitely the exclusive mighty power of the Crimson Ruler, Cyttorak!
Don't look at how loud the names of the five major gods of the Universe are; placed in front of the Crimson Ruler, they weren't even worthy of carrying his shoes.
As long as the other party was willing, moving a finger could grind him into powder.
Could the young man before him be an avatar of the Crimson Ruler?
No!
The Ruler would never easily step out of the Crimson Universe.
In his absolute home field, all five creation gods combined weren't enough for Cyttorak to beat with one hand, but once he left his lair, his situation would become somewhat more perilous.
The Ruler would never risk descending upon a barren, remote galaxy!
After some quick calculation, the behemoth forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart.
The berserk mighty power exploded with a bang, forcibly snapping all ten blood-red chains wrapped around his body!
"No matter where you stole the Crimson Power from, you must die today!" The giant's killing intent soared.
He had to eliminate the hidden trouble early, and then swallow the entire azure Planet along with the causal lines in one gulp.
Destroying the corpses and wiping away the traces, no one would be able to find any clues!
Accompanied by an angry shout, the black fog all over the sky rapidly contracted inward.
His body, as huge as a star, began to collapse frantically, eventually transforming into a humanoid silhouette over three meters tall in the vacuum.
Compared to ordinary people, he could indeed be considered a small giant, but compared to his previous size that blotted out the sky, he was simply as minuscule as dust.
Ryan's expression turned solemn.
The more compressed the energy was, the more terrifying it became. The current humanoid behemoth's degree of danger had definitely skyrocketed exponentially.
Without any hesitation, barriers flowing with golden light on all sides immediately formed in front of him, overlapping layer upon layer to protect his vital parts.
"It's useless, prepare to hit the road."
The humanoid giant's tone was icy cold, and he raised his hand to point gently ahead.
A pure black speck of light instantly condensed at his fingertip.
All light, energy, and even vision around it were ruthlessly swallowed by it.
With a flick of his finger, the speck of light, carrying a rich aura of Death, swooped straight at its prey.
Seeing this, Ryan immediately thickened the defensive barrier in front of him until it was as solid as a city wall.
"Ding!"
"Your 'Ancient Body of Hoggoth' jumped out and pointed fingers: As an elegant spellcaster, you shouldn't joke with your life."
"The 'Ancient Body of Hoggoth' frantically hinted: Please do not entrust your life and property to a clumsy, beaten turtle shell."
"The 'Ancient Body of Hoggoth' shouted loudly: You clearly carry the most reliable ultimate trump card on your body!"
Ryan was covered in black lines.
His own skills were more dramatic than the last; unable to speak straight, they had to beat around the bush and act like a Riddler!
However, since the system had spoken, hard-resisting was definitely not the best policy.
His thoughts stirred slightly, and he decisively withdrew the golden city wall around him, standing in the vacuum waiting quietly for the fatal move to descend.
The pure black speck of light looked slow, but in reality, it ignored spatial distance, instantly approaching his face.
At the critical moment when he was about to be strangled!
Boom!
Ryan's body burst open without any warning.
There was no flesh and blood flying everywhere; instead, it transformed into emerald-green butterflies dancing all over the sky.
The gorgeous and stunning green butterflies flapped their wings and flew high, filling the surrounding deep space in just a few breaths.
Even more bizarrely, the artificial black hole that swallowed everything had no reaction whatsoever to these fragile living creatures, as if they didn't exist in the current dimension at all.
The humanoid behemoth was stunned for a moment.
"How did he not suffer even a single injury? What the hell kind of thing is this!"
Full of shock, he abruptly reached out his palm, attempting to catch a flying green butterfly to investigate what was going on.
Who would have thought that the moment his fingertips touched the thin butterfly wings, a sudden change occurred!
Bang!
The seemingly harmless butterflies detonated with a bang!
As if dominoes were pushed over, tens of thousands of butterflies exploded in succession!
The blinding glare instantly lit up the deep galaxy, completely overshadowing even the light of the Sun. The entire Earth was illuminated as bright as day.
The terrifying Impact swept away all space debris in the Solar System, and several unlucky asteroids instantly turned into cosmic dust.
The explosion ravaged for a full half hour before gradually subsiding.
The void returned to dimness.
Ryan recondensed his figure amidst a burst of green light, not even a speck of dust staining the corner of his clothes.
On the other hand, the cosmic giant opposite him was in a miserably wretched state.
Although the armor made of divine material withstood the high temperature, his exterior had been smoked pitch black like ink, looking as if he had just crawled out of a coal kiln, and even his remaining hair emitted a burnt smell.
The humanoid behemoth stood stiffly in the vacuum, his two eyes staring wide and round, his whole face written with disbelief.
Why could the human before him always pull out heaven-defying methods that completely subverted common sense!
