Chapter 171: Big shot? Lab rat? The gaze of the ultimate deity!"
"You are very special."
The moment he appeared, Oblivion's mechanical doll-like face locked straight onto Ryan.
Ryan couldn't find the opponent's pupils anywhere, yet he felt himself being firmly locked onto by the entire vast void.
This indescribable gaze was enough to make one's hair stand on end and shiver from the bone.
"Thank you for the compliment, Great God."
Ryan chose to respond in a low-key manner, his tone steady.
"It is not a compliment."
"I am merely stating a fact."
"Your existence is indeed extraordinary."
Oblivion gazed at Ryan, his tone unexpectedly revealing a rare hint of curiosity.
With a casual wave of his hand,
above his palm, a miniature pocket Universe unexpectedly materialized out of thin air, with Nebula swirling and cycles of creation and destruction endless.
"Looking across this Universe, you are the most unique living being."
"I actually cannot capture any causal threads on your body."
"I cannot trace your past, nor can I see through your past and present lives."
"All traces on your body seem to have been completely erased by some power."
On the surface, Oblivion was calm, but huge waves surged in the depths of his heart.
He was one of the supreme existences at the very peak of the Marvel Multiverse!
Within this endless sea of stars, things he couldn't see through could be counted on one's fingers.
Yet Ryan right before him had become a blind spot that completely baffled him.
Ryan clearly harbored astonishing power, but all his past experiences seemed to have been forcefully wiped away by an invisible giant hand.
No matter how Oblivion circulated his divine power to deduce, he could not peek into even a sliver of the truth.
This counter-intuitive phenomenon deeply shocked this ultimate deity.
"How is that possible?"
"Under the laws of this multiverse, how could there be secrets that even he cannot parse?"
In fact, Oblivion's sudden descent into this star domain was by no means accidental.
The second before, he was still listlessly toying with a few parallel Universes, casually kneading, destroying, and reshaping them, everything within his control.
But at that very instant, he captured an incomparably familiar aura.
That was destruction and termination pure to the extreme.
It seemed to declare that the entire Universe was about to welcome its doom.
Other deities might find it baffling, but Oblivion was more than familiar with this aura.
Because that was his own exclusive power!
The law of oblivion representing absolute nothingness.
In the vast multiverse, apart from his true self, it was fundamentally impossible for a second person to touch this conceptual-level power.
Yet unexpectedly, this power erupted without warning in another star domain.
Following the aura, Oblivion locked onto Ryan at a glance.
He was one hundred percent certain that the source who had triggered the law of oblivion just now was the human youth right before him!
Such a thing was absurd to the extreme.
Oblivion's state of mind, which was like stagnant water, rippled for the first time in a long time.
He was truly curious how a mere mortal had stolen and wielded such supreme great power.
Oblivion gently flipped his wrist.
The surrounding starry sky instantly underwent a bizarre distortion, resembling a rewinding movie scene.
Countless streams of light and phantom shadows rapidly retreated and recombined.
In the blink of an eye, the entire process of Ryan shattering the Planet and obliterating the Skrull deity just now was reenacted before the two of them like a holographic projection.
Ryan watched with the corners of his eyes twitching continuously.
This big shot's methods were simply too terrifying!
With a casual flicker, he could force time across an entire star domain to reverse.
Truly worthy of being an ultimate monster living in legends who could arbitrarily tamper with timelines. Such great power had completely exceeded the scope of ordinary people's comprehension.
"Indeed, it is pure power of oblivion."
"It's just a pity that there are too many impurities, and it's not pure enough."
After watching the playback, Oblivion gave his own commentary.
Ryan listened with full heads of black lines.
"Listen to what that is called? Not pure enough?"
"I'm afraid in the eyes of a conceptual entity like you, there aren't many things in the entire Universe that can be called pure!"
"I am a mere mortal, and naturally cannot compare to your methods, Great God."
Ryan gave a haha and brushed it off casually.
"I am indeed very curious about the exact means by which you wielded this power."
Oblivion didn't seem to have any intention of letting him off, relentlessly pursuing the question.
"Nothing special, purely the magic of Kamar-Taj."
Ryan lied without blushing or his heart beating.
"Such a crude excuse cannot fool me."
"Let me personally dissect and see."
"You don't need to be afraid, it won't be very painful."
"Even if I accidentally kill you, I have a way to piece you back together and resurrect you."
Oblivion said in a flat tone words that made one's hair stand on end.
At the same time, he slowly extended that mechanical and cold palm, attempting to grab Ryan directly into his hand.
Ryan reacted extremely quickly, his figure instantly merging into the void.
When he appeared again, he had pulled apart a safe distance of over a hundred kilometers.
At this moment, Ryan's complexion was so gloomy it was almost dripping water.
"Great God Oblivion, this kind of research is completely unnecessary."
Ryan coldly refused.
Calling you a great god is giving you face, do you really think this young master is made of dough, to be kneaded however you like?
Ryan knew very well that at Oblivion's level, human society's moral views and criteria of good and evil had long become a pile of waste paper.
To satisfy a momentary curiosity of his own, even if the other party crushed a Universe casually, there wouldn't be the slightest psychological burden.
In the eyes of these creator deities, vast galaxies were not much different from glass marbles in a child's hand.
And he, Ryan, was now just a "lab rat" that happened to spark the deity's interest.
Sliced and diced at will for research, and if killed, resurrected at worst—this was the logic of deities.
Wanting him, Ryan, to obediently cooperate? That's simply daydreaming!
Seeing that Ryan actually dared to dodge, Oblivion slightly tilted his head, looking very puzzled.
"Why do you resist?"
"I just want to slightly parse your structure."
"As the only existence in the multiverse not bound by the laws of causality, you should feel honored."
"What is there for you to be afraid of?"
"Even if your physical body collapses, I will grant you rebirth."
Oblivion spoke in a flat, unchanging tone while raising his hand once more, grabbing toward Ryan across the void.
"I advise you to better figure out the situation!"
Ryan's gaze instantly turned incomparably fierce.
Oblivion did bring an unprecedented terrifying sense of oppression, but this by no means meant Ryan would surrender without a fight.
Wanting to use him as experimental material?
Not a chance!
Even if he had to risk his life, he would never allow anyone to arbitrarily manipulate his destiny.
Ryan stood on high alert, the violent magic around his body beginning to churn violently.
Faced with Ryan's tough attitude, Oblivion opposite him grew even more puzzled.
On that cold face of his, a dense bewilderment rarely surfaced, seeming completely unable to comprehend the thought process of this "lab rat".
"Why do you make this meaningless resistance?"
"For a mortal, this should have been a supreme gift."
"I can resurrect you, and even allow you to stay by my side in the future, becoming my only apostle."
Oblivion earnestly put forward conditions he considered extremely tempting.
You must know that among the Five Creator Deities, he had always been an independent existence.
Other deities would more or less recruit a few errand-running underlings, for instance, Galactus had Silver Surferspecifically responsible for finding food.
Only Oblivion had remained entirely alone throughout endless years.
Until meeting Ryan today, he had unprecedentedly spawned a sliver of thought to recruit him under his command.
In the eyes of the vast majority of Universe living beings, being able to be an apostle of an ultimate deity was supreme glory that could not be cultivated across several lifetimes.
Oblivion truly couldn't figure out why the human before him had refused so decisively.
"Wanting me to be your servant? Dream on!"
Ryan unceremoniously retorted.
Simultaneously, his right hand abruptly grabbed into the void, and an iridescent amethyst longsword instantly formed, pointing far ahead toward the deity.
Seeing this scene, Oblivion laughed instead of getting angry, a flash of excited light passing through his eyes.
"Wanting to fight with me?"
"Interesting, truly too interesting."
Seeing that Ryan actually dared to draw a weapon against him, Oblivion felt that the boredom accumulated over long years seemed to have been slightly dispelled.
He could no longer remember how many eras it had been since anyone dared to draw a sword against him.
The last time he made a move seemed to be due to sparring between deities.
And now, a mere mortal dared to face the fear of nothingness head-on and launch a challenge.
In the history of the Marvel Universe, this was definitely the very first time.
"Very good."
"You are the most ignorant mortal creature I have ever seen since my birth."
"I grant you the privilege of making a move."
"Do it, let me see your limit."
"If you can truly touch a corner of my clothes, I might consider sparing your life."
Oblivion stood in place, his tone high and mighty, as if teasing an over-the-top ant.
Ryan tightly gripped the amethyst longsword, his gaze cold.
This supreme existence standing at the pinnacle of the Universe was simply being far too arrogant.
Since you dare to be arrogant and not fight back, don't blame me for playing dirty!
Chapter 172: Can Even Gods Crash and Burn?
"Since Lord Oblivion insists so kindly, I won't be polite anymore!"
Ryan didn't want to waste a single word more. He exerted sudden force in his palm, and the glistening amethyst longsword slashed straight out.
With a single swing of his sword, Ryan held nothing back entirely.
The violent and matchless magic poured out along the blade like an explosion, and the surrounding Universe void seemed to welcome a doomsday collapse.
Several giant stars not far away were affected by the violent pressure, and their light actually began to flicker violently, as if they would go out completely at any moment.
You must know that Ryan had tightly compressed ninety-nine percent of his destructive power within the edge of the sword.
Even just a shred of leaked aftermath created a heaven-destroying and earth-shattering phenomenon.
The giant amethyst sword swelled against the wind to over a hundred meters, carrying the fierce might of cleaving the galaxy as it smashed straight down toward Oblivion's head.
Facing this World-shaking ultimate kill, this ultimate god didn't even blink his eyelids half a time.
He only lightly raised his right arm, and his five fingers randomly clenched toward the void.
"Crack!"
The terrifying giant sword slashed out by Ryan actually disintegrated instantly, just like a tall building whose foundation had been drained.
The previously violent and matchless purple energy was like residual snow encountering the scorching sun, rapidly decomposing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally completely dissipating into invisibility.
"In the eyes of mortals, the great power you master can indeed be considered stunning."
"Unfortunately, to me, it is like a gentle breeze brushing past the face."
"You simply cannot understand the concept of a god."
"I am the endless void, I am absolute great power, I am the ultimate origin of all things in the World."
Oblivion's tone was as calm as water.
While speaking, the surrounding galaxy flowed wildly along with it. Countless massive galaxies spiraled rapidly around him, and the entire Universe seemed to have turned into a small trinket in his palm for him to play with as he pleased.
Ryan's gaze sank completely.
The ultimate god truly lived up to his reputation!
The opponent had long transcended the shackles of the physical level, and was himself the embodiment of the most fundamental laws of the Universe.
Placed in the Eastern immortal cultivation World, he was definitely a supreme existence who embodied the Heavenly Dao and was indestructible through ten thousand tribulations.
Ryan took a deep breath, and the top-tier magic all over his body churned violently like boiling water. Facing such a heaven-defying formidable enemy, he had to use all his strength down to the last ounce.
Just at the critical juncture when Ryan was ready to risk his life, the melodious system prompt tone exploded crisply in his mind.
"Ding!"
"The system has detected the pure aura of the World's origin laws!"
"The host is confronting the World-origin derived creature head-on, and the opponent contains vast divine power!"
"The system forcibly loads the god-slaying buff: All subsequent attacks will deal two hundred percent true damage to gods!"
"Your 'Dimensional Blade' welcomes an epic-level enhancement, and its lethality skyrockets exponentially!"
"If you can successfully defeat Oblivion, the host will have a probability of plundering a massive amount of World's origin, and all magic skills will definitely usher in the ultimate evolution of divinity!"
Hearing the series of prompts, Ryan gasped deeply. The solemnity from just now was swept away in an instant, replaced by full confidence.
What does it mean to have backing?
A man with a cheat plugin by his side is just this overbearing!
Even the system couldn't wait to press the ultimate god before him onto the ground to rub against it, how could he, Ryan, a dignified man of seven feet, possibly retreat!
Ryan gripped with his hands in the air, and a completely transparent glass sharp blade instantly condensed and formed. Inside, it seemed to fold countless overlapping microscopic Universes, emitting a mysterious fluctuation that made souls tremble.
Oblivion stared with great interest at the weapon in Ryan's hand, the corners of his mouth rising slightly.
"Compressed the power of space to the extreme? A bit interesting."
"I have lived for countless epochs, and I have never seen such wondrous magic. Is this a new trick you concocted yourself?"
"It's just a pity that no matter how fancy your methods are, it is futile. You can never hope to break open a single fraction of my divine body."
Oblivion shook his head repeatedly, full of unshakeable confidence in his absolute defense.
"Whoosh!"
Without warning, a transparent stream of light tore through the vacuum.
Oblivion suddenly felt a trace of abnormality coming from his chest.
Lowering his head to take a look, the ultimate god was dumbfounded on the spot.
The transparent blade in Ryan's hand had long since disappeared, and right now it was stably and firmly inserted into his chest!
What was even more absurd was that the transparent hilt was still swinging back and forth in the vacuum, as if ruthlessly mocking his blind self-confidence.
Oblivion looked at Ryan, and completely fell into Death-like silence.
Fortunately, there were no other creation gods present to watch the battle, otherwise he would have been shamed to Death alive today.
They say a person will experience three Deaths. Now, this great creation god experienced in advance what it means to suffer a'social Death'.
He had just boasted to the high heavens, only to be slapped in the face at the speed of light in less than a second.
There's simply no martial ethics whatsoever!
What shocked Oblivion even more was, how on earth could a mere mortal pierce through his defense?
"Just now... I just got a little distracted."
In order to save face, Oblivion seriously found an excuse for himself.
Ryan stared at the opponent and nodded heavily in full cooperation.
"Don't doubt it."
"If you have the guts, try again. If you can still touch a single scrap of my clothing, count it as my loss!"
Oblivion's expression was solemn, as if issuing some supreme Universe law.
"Since you insist so kindly, fine then."
Ryan was not polite at all, and grabbed with both hands again.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Two piercing sounds rang out abruptly.
Oblivion lowered his head again, and two brand-new transparent blades precisely and accurately stabbed right next to the previous wound!
Although it only grazed a tiny bit of skin and the damage was negligible, the insult value was directly maxed out!
The ultimate god felt as if his face had been fiercely slapped twice with big vicious smacks, burning with pain.
He, the dignified Oblivion, the most unfathomable existence among the five major gods, had actually been defense-broken continuously by a mortal?
If this spread out, how could he show his face in the multiverse anymore?
Amidst his shock, the curiosity in the depths of Oblivion's eyes grew richer.
His body was not some carbon-based flesh and blood, but pure abstract laws. Large enough to wrap around the Universe, small enough to hide within quarks.
Back then, when fighting Galactus in his prime to the Death, he hadn't lost a single hair.
Today, he actually flipped over in some backwater countryside?
This human youth was far more bizarre than he had imagined!
However, saving face right now was the top priority.
Oblivion dry coughed and forcibly saved face: "I said I got distracted again just now, do you believe it?"
Ryan nodded very sincerely.
He knew very well in his heart that such a powerful existence as the opponent failing to defend against it must be because of carelessness; there was completely nothing wrong with that.
"Not bad."
"Young man, you are very sensible."
"Seeing that you are so tactful, even if you offend me in the future, I guarantee I will help you reshape your physical body."
"I just like sensible mortals like you."
Oblivion felt very satisfied with Ryan's attitude.
"Many thanks for the Lord God's cultivation."
Ryan said thanks with a smile.
Before his words fell, he waved his hands violently again, and two transparent blades directly burst out shooting!
However, Oblivion, who had suffered two secret losses, had long been guarding against this hand.
"Spatial Barrier!"
Oblivion casually reached out and wiped in front of him.
An indestructible transparent thin film formed instantly.
"Ding! Ding!"
Two crisp collision sounds rippled out, and the razor-sharp Dimensional Blade slammed fiercely into the thin film, finally returning empty-handed.
Chapter 173: One-Ten-Thousandth of the Universe-Tearing Might"
"Young man."
Oblivion's face was filled with the composure of someone who held victory in his grasp, "Since I've been on guard long ago, you absolutely won't be able to catch even a sliver of a flaw."
He put on a supreme posture of ruling the cosmos, as if all things in the world were mere dust. If it were anyone else, facing the divine might and pressure, they would probably have gone weak at the knees and begged for mercy on the ground long ago.
"Is that so?"
Ryan's lips curled up, revealing a strange smile.
Oblivion's heart skipped a beat, and his intuition told him something was amiss.
With a slight movement of his mind, the vacuum within a radius of several meters instantly solidified completely like a copper wall and iron bastion, forming an absolutely enclosed spatial barrier in an attempt to block any sudden attacks.
However, before he even had time to put on a smug expression, he was completely dumbfounded.
Looking up, a heaven-covering dimensional giant blade was slashing down wildly from directly overhead without any warning!
In order to slash out a world-destroying blow, the veins all over Ryan's body bulged, and he even used every ounce of his strength.
Oblivion clearly perceived that the entire starry sky of the Universe was directly split into two!
The deep Universe fissure would probably take an unknown amount of years to slowly heal. The lethality of a top-tier powerhouse was simply appalling.
Crack!
The indestructible giant blade crashed down heavily, and Oblivion's proud spatial barrier was like a piece of scrap paper, instantly cut into pieces.
Seeing that he was about to be split in half, Oblivion still leisurely hovered in mid-air without panicking at all.
Spitting out two words lightly from his mouth: "Oblivion."
Without even the slightest extra movement.
The dimensional giant blade, which was enough to split half the Universe, actually began to disintegrate out of thin air!
You must know that the dimensional blade was not a physical weapon at all, but an ultimate killing move purely condensed from spatial fissures and spatial laws.
But in front of the black might, the giant blade was like snow encountering the scorching sun.
Centimeter by centimeter, inch by inch, the huge blade rapidly turned into nothingness, and nothing could stop the trend of collapse.
Oblivion stood quietly in the dark deep space at this moment, finally regaining some of the dignity of a Genesis God.
"Wasted effort," Oblivion said in a calm tone. "The concept I wield is the end of destruction. Looking across the entire multiverse, as long as something exists, there is nothing I cannot erase."
Ryan touched his chin and threw out a soul-searching question: "What about the Great Eternity and the Great Infinity? Can you erase them too?"
Oblivion was rendered speechless by the retort.
He couldn't help cursing inwardly that the human in front of him must be the reincarnation of the grandmaster of argument!
Eternity and Infinity, just like him, were Genesis Gods formed by the materialization of abstract concepts of the Universe.
His strength did slightly suppress the other party, but wanting to completely obliterate them was simply wishful thinking.
Unless he could instantly delete the concepts of "Eternity" and "Infinity" from the minds of all living beings in the entire Universe, otherwise they would be immortal and indestructible forever.
The key was that he couldn't do it at all!
Facing Ryan's arguing, Oblivion was filled with deep regret.
Wasn't it great to stay quietly deep in the multiverse?
Why did he run to the main Universe to join in the excitement!
Wasn't it just having a little bit of power borrowed by someone? Just let him be, anyway it couldn't cause any substantial damage.
Now look, not only was he slapped in the face by a human, but he was also mocked to his face, losing all his dignity completely.
In order to save face, Oblivion secretly made up his mind that after finishing the fight, he must crush all spatial structures within a radius of several light-years to ensure that no powerful being could trace back time to see his awkwardness today.
Forcibly suppressing the grievance in his heart, Oblivion looked at Ryan again and began to change the subject:
"Young man, you at least count as having stepped into the ranks of the Universe's top powerhouses, so why do you only use base methods like sneak attacks from behind? It damages the dignity of a powerhouse."
He had never seen such a sinister mortal who didn't care about martial virtue at all.
Ryan rolled his eyes and retorted unceremoniously: "Haven't you heard that all's fair in war? Since we've decided to fight to the death, of course we must use all means. Besides, if you had spoken nicely just now and hadn't always thought about catching me to slice me up for research, would I be full and bored enough to pick a fight with you?"
Who would want to hard-clash with a monster that couldn't be killed no matter what, especially when it didn't drop any good equipment.
Oblivion laughed instead after hearing this: "According to you, it's all my fault then? You simply don't understand how great of a fortune it is for countless living beings to be able to follow by a Genesis God's side, yet you actually don't know how to cherish it."
"Stop flattering yourself." Ryan's face was covered with frost, "I have no interest in being someone's dog."
"Enough nonsense, let's see the real deal under our hands! Today, I must experience what kind of heaven-defying abilities the Five Genesis Gods are hiding!"
Ryan was crystal clear in his heart that the formidable enemy in front of him definitely hadn't displayed his true strength, and it couldn't even be counted as a warmup.
"Young man, I truly appreciate you very much." Oblivion still refused to give up, trying to make a final solicitation: "As long as you bow your head, admit your mistake, and submit to me now, I can write off the matter of you offending me previously."
"There's no need for that, just bring it on!" Ryan refused decisively.
He came to the Marvel Universe for the sake of freedom and ease, not to be a beast of burden for others.
Since talks broke down, Ryan immediately entered the highest level of defensive state. Magic surged crazily, and thick shields flowing with dazzling golden light on all four sides instantly formed, protecting him tightly in all directions.
Ryan's expression was solemn, facing the enemy with full preparedness, closely staring at Oblivion's next move.
Looking at the obstinate Ryan, a deep look of regret flashed through Oblivion's eyes.
Mortals were ultimately too young, completely unable to understand what kind of unsolvable despair the four words "Genesis God" represented.
They were the source of energy and all concepts in the multiverse, and with just a tiny thought, they could rewrite the laws of reality at will.
"Young man, you are indeed a rare genius." Oblivion sighed, "It's a pity that you know nothing about true might."
"Since endless years ago, countless madmen have attempted to challenge the Five Gods. Do you know what their ends were?"
Ryan shook his head honestly: "I don't know."
Oblivion raised his eyelids slightly and pronounced the death sentence: "They are all dead. Now, you are next."
As soon as the words fell.
Oblivion didn't even raise his hand, merely moving his mind slightly.
Ryan immediately perceived a hair-raising, fatal crisis. He suddenly looked up, and immediately saw a terrifying picture that he would never forget for the rest of his life.
The sky had actually split open!
You must know that they were not currently located within the atmosphere of some Planet, but were deep in the vast Universe!
Above their heads was a vast and boundless vacuum, and even flying at the speed of light would never reach the end.
But now, the indestructible space of the Universe was directly torn apart.
A terrifying abyss of invisible width spanned across the river of stars.
A majestic pressure that could not be described in words crashed down heavily along the fissure!
Ryan instantly felt as if ten thousand ten-thousand-zhang-high mountains were pressing down on his shoulders simultaneously.
He had to bite his teeth tight, tensing every inch of muscle in his body to the extreme, in order to barely resist the might that seemed like it would grind him into minced meat.
"How does it feel, young man?"
Oblivion's voice echoed in his ears like a muffled thunder: "Are you still going to hold on stubbornly? The attack just now was merely one-ten-thousandth of my power."
With a single thought, the boundary membrane was torn apart.
This was precisely the foundation of Genesis Gods. In their eyes, actions like Thanos casually erasing half of all life were simply as ridiculous as children playing house.
As long as they were willing, a single thought could restart the timeline and instantly resurrect everyone.
Tearing a layer of Universe boundary membrane was truly as easy as breathing for Oblivion.
Chapter 174 Severing the Divine Will! Dimensional Reduction Strike of a Cheating Player!
The Creator Deity was indeed ridiculously strong.
However, he was not a pushover!
"Ding!"
"System detected high-dimensional coercion, the host's mental will has undergone a qualitative change!"
"Mental power has skyrocketed significantly, successfully breaking the shackles of the current World!"
"Congratulations! You have obtained permission to tamper with the underlying rules of the World!"
"Your defense magic is undergoing adaptive evolution!"
A series of prompt tones exploded in his mind.
Ryan nodded in satisfaction.
It seemed that his cheat system was determined today to instigate him into beating up the opposing deity, sending out all kinds of benefits like they were free.
You have to admit, the exhilaration of an all-around upgrade simply made one feel thoroughly comfortable all over.
Opening his eyes again, golden light flowed in the depths of Ryan's eyes.
His entire field of vision had completely changed.
The stars and the void were all gone, and everything in the World transformed into countless interlaced lines, just like the most basic 3D modeling in a computer.
With just a thought, he could freely pluck the threads around him and accomplish many things that defied common sense.
Ryan looked up and stared at the powerful enemy opposite him.
In this special field of vision, the opponent's appearance hadn't changed at all.
Only directly above his head, two incomparably thick pitch-black threads extended, thrusting straight into the split abyss.
Ryan's mind stirred slightly.
The majestic mental power instantly transformed into an invisible sharp blade, ruthlessly slashing down and directly cutting off the two pitch-black threads at the root!
An astonishing anomaly occurred.
The giant mouth of the deep space that had been forcibly torn apart actually rapidly closed like a healing wound, returning to normal in the blink of an eye.
The terrifying pressure weighing on his shoulders instantly vanished into thin air, and Ryan let out a long sigh of relief.
Ryan did not know that the opposing Creator Deity was already dumbfounded.
Having his will connection severed, how could the deity as the party involved not notice?
He was simply too shocked to even speak!
What was severed was the concrete manifestation of the deity's will!
In front of absolute will, the laws of the Universe had to obediently step aside, and tearing the boundary membrane was a piece of cake.
Never had he imagined that a human could actually rely on mental power to forcefully sever the deity's will!
You must know that even a hungry, rampaging Galactus, bursting forth with World-destroying devouring power, failed to shake his will by even a fraction!
Will symbolized the supreme authority of the deity!
Could the human in front of him have a more resilient mental power than the Creator Deity?
It was simply absurd to the extreme!
Staring at the youth in white before him, the deity's eyes were filled with doubt and uncertainty.
What on Earth was going on?
"Young man, you are not an Earthling at all, right?" The big shot opposite suddenly asked.
Ryan's heart skipped a beat.
Could his background as a transmigrator have been seen through?
Although he was panicking on the inside, Ryan remained steady as an old dog on the outside, answering decisively: "Of course I am an Earthling, born and raised on Earthsince I was a child, purer than pure."
"How could a mere remote planet breed a monster like you?" The opposite party was full of confusion, "Your parents are definitely not ordinary life forms."
In the vast sea of stars, bloodline represented everything.
Overlords who could stand at the top of the pyramid were either born deities or anomalies with heaven-defying bloodlines.
The human before him had no traces of a special bloodline at all, so how could he burst out with abnormal strength capable of inversely severing a deity's will?
"If you were an ordinary person, how could your willpower rival a deity?"
The big shot stared fixedly at Ryan, wishing he could strip the person bare to see right through him.
If he hadn't sensed the aura of his own kind, he would have even suspected that the being standing opposite him was an abstract conceptual entity disguised as a mortal.
The more he looked, the more outrageous it felt; he was actually really an ordinary human without any special bloodline?
Ryan didn't care about this at all.
Being able to have today was entirely thanks to the cheat in his head backing him up.
Of course, matters regarding transmigration and the system could not be spoken of even if it killed him.
Ryan casually made up a lie, shrugged, and said: "Perhaps it's because I usually work quite hard? As for practicing magic, as long as you are willing to put in the hard effort and sweat a bit more, that's all it takes."
Hearing this outrageous explanation, the opposing deity almost went berserk, wishing he could directly send down a force of destruction to blast the person to death.
Just hard work?
Go fool ghosts!
If one could become strong just by sweating, top experts in the Universe would already be a dime a dozen!
For powerhouses standing at the peak, talent was the only standard that determined the upper limit, and hard effort at most guaranteed you wouldn't be at the bottom. Without invincible aptitude, don't even think about touching the threshold of deities in this lifetime!
How on Earth did the human before him break the convention?
The big shot was utterly baffled.
In such a tiny single Universe, how could a super almighty deity be holed up there?
With strength this formidable, why didn't he run off to the vast multi-dimensions to reign supreme?
True powerhouses all conquered each other in the multiverse, which was much more interesting than staying in a remote corner.
Yet this kid just loved to hunker down in the newbie village to develop, and he was strong in such an unreasonable way!
The deity fell into a long silence.
Facing Ryan, for the first time in history, he gave birth to a sense of powerlessness beyond his control.
"Young man, I truly did not misjudge you."
"You are definitely a freak peerless through the ages."
"Being able to command the underlying laws to contend with me at the age of over twenty is something I've seen for the very first time since my birth."
Actually, there was half a sentence in his heart that he hadn't spoken out.
Let alone seeing it with his own eyes, he had never even heard of it!
Looking across the entire multi-dimensions, which renowned powerhouse hadn't endured the long years of hundreds of millions or even tens of billions of years?
Even he, the youngest among the five major deities, had lived for who knows how many epochs.
This kid, all things considered, had only lived for some twenty years. What kind of monster defying the rules of the Universe was he anyway!
Chapter 175: The Deity Who Writes His Name Backwards! A Desperate Shield Defies the Mighty Power of Annihilation!
"Thanks for the praise, Great Deity Annihilation."
"But enough nonsense, a fight is still a fight."
Ryan didn't back down at all, cleanly and neatly snapping back.
Hearing this, Annihilation was almost angered to the point of laughter.
At this point, he completely abandoned the idea of capturing Ryan to slice him up for research.
Right now, he just wanted to see with his own eyes what arrogant capital this human kid in front of him actually possessed!
"Young man, I appreciate you."
"Through endless years, you are the first mortal who dares to challenge me like this."
"For the sake of your guts, after you are crushed into dust, I guarantee I will piece you back together and resurrect you personally."
"However, right now..."
"Experience the abyss of Death properly!"
Annihilation's expression suddenly turned incomparably solemn.
His cold face, resembling a mechanical doll, suddenly twisted into a deep void vortex.
"Annihilation!"
Accompanied by a whisper.
Annihilation merely raised a finger and gently pointed forward.
A sudden change occurred!
The cosmic void ahead unexpectedly began to collapse without warning.
All matter, and even light, disintegrated into nothingness in an instant.
The original space was not an absolute vacuum; it was filled with various rays, meteorite fragments, and space debris.
But now.
Ryan clearly perceived that the space in front of him was being completely cleared out!
No matter how hard the meteorite, no matter how violent the cosmic rays.
Before the mighty power of Annihilation, they all melted silently like residual snow under the blazing sun.
Even the physical laws of time and space experienced bizarre distortion and collapse.
As if all existence was forcibly erased.
Leaving behind only a dead silence of nothingness where even concepts no longer existed.
There, time lost its meaning, space had no dimensions, and even the most fundamental laws of the Universe were wailing and perishing.
And this absolute dead-silent domain of nothingness was frantically spreading toward Ryan with unstoppable momentum!
Ryan's expression was grave, but he had no intention of dodging at all.
He knew very well in his heart that facing this kind of conceptual-level attack, mere speed and evasion were of no use at all.
Ryan suddenly waved his hand.
Hum——!
In front of the golden magic barrier surrounding his body, dozens of thick defensive light shields emerged layer upon layer once again.
However.
The surfaces of these pure gold shields, which should have been dazzlingly bright, were unexpectedly plated with a layer of pitch-black light film, as if ink had been splashed on them.
The originally sacred and solemn magic instantly turned pitch black, so ugly that people couldn't bear to look at it.
But at this critical juncture of life and Death, Ryan couldn't care about any magic aesthetics. As long as it could save his life, he would use it even if it looked like a lump of cow dung.
"You plan to rely on defense to hard-resist?"
"This tortoise shell you conjured up is far too shabby in appearance, completely out of style with your moves just now."
"However, all struggles are futile."
"Young man, you simply don't understand."
"What I, Annihilation, rely on to run amok across the multiverse is precisely this indestructible ultimate destructive power!"
"Even if that fellow Eternity came personally, facing my attack, he could only rely on his body to hard-resist, unable to dodge at all!"
"You, a mere human, vainly attempt to use magic to block my mighty power?"
"It's simply daydreaming!"
"If you can really block it with these few broken shields, I will write the two characters 'Annihilation' backwards from now on!"
Annihilation laughed presumptuously.
Perhaps because he had been cooped up in deep space for too long without anyone to talk to, this ultimate deity was chattering endlessly like a chatterbox at this moment.
However, Ryan's mind was frantically driving his magicpower right now, and he simply didn't have time to bother with the opponent's taunts.
"Ding!"
"Your 'Shield of the Seraphim' has sensed a fatal threat and is undergoing an adaptive ultimate evolution!"
"By absorbing enough of Annihilation's mighty power, your shield will permanently acquire targeted absolute resistance!"
"Your 'Shield of the Seraphim' is exhibiting a tragic spirit of defying Death, and it is roaring loudly: Please cherish it, host!"
"The 'Shield of the Seraphim' strongly protests: Never use it to block those third-rate garbage attacks in the future; it has a reputation to maintain!"
Hearing the prompt sounds in his mind, veins throbbed on Ryan's forehead.
Although facing life and Death, he still couldn't help but want to complain: What kind of miraculous neural pathways did his own skills have? A Magic Shieldspecialized in taking beatings, why did it have more drama than the actor!
In the blink of an eye.
The suffocating domain of nothingness crashed heavily into the outermost black shield.
Crack!
The first shield didn't even hold out for half a second, shattering at a touch like fragile glass.
Seeing this, Annihilation nodded with satisfaction.
That's right! A wet-behind-the-ears human kid, what did he have to contend with a deity's ultimate killer move?
However.
When his gaze continued to look backward.
The complacency in the depths of Annihilation's eyes was gradually replaced by a hint of shock and suspicion.
Something's wrong!
He keenly perceived that the speed at which the domain of nothingness shattered the second shield was obviously a sliver slower than just now!
Although it was only a sliver, it definitely couldn't escape a deity's perception.
No way?
Annihilation's heart jumped violently, and a strong sense of ominous premonition instantly surged through his entire body.
Could this kid really hard-resist his attack head-on?
The violent power of nothingness swept away everything like withered weeds and decaying wood all the way, successively tearing apart dozens of defenses in front of Ryan.
Until only the last shield remained.
A sudden change occurred!
This last pitch-black Magic Shield unexpectedly blocked the domain of nothingness half a step away stubbornly like an unsurpassable primeval sacred mountain!
In front of the shield was a doomsday scene of the Universe collapsing and all things perishing in silence.
Behind the shield, Ryan was as steady as Mount Tai, and not even a single strand of hair was affected.
"Actually... really blocked it?!"
Annihilation's eyeballs were almost popping out, and his whole person fell completely into a daze.
Having lived for countless eras, he had never seen such an absurd scene!
This was simply too terrifying!
You must know that what he released was pure, mighty power of Annihilation!
Even Eternity, one of the five major deities, would lose a chunk of flesh if hit by this power!
He could only tough it out by relying on his own undying and indestructible abstract concept.
However.
The insignificant human before his eyes had actually completely blocked the attack relying on a broken shield!
Is there anything more outrageous than this in the World?
Did the Universe laws catch a virus?
Why could this kid's magic become perverted to this extent!
The mighty power of Annihilation represented the absolute law of all things heading toward their end!
Whether it was matter, energy, or any other laws, in front of Annihilation, there was only the fate of being erased.
On what grounds? On what grounds could a mere magichard-resist the ultimate judgment of the Universe!
This completely defies logic!
Annihilation fell completely into deep self-doubt.
If Ryan had mobilized some kind of cosmic law of the same grade to resist, he would at most be slightly surprised.
After all, other deities did the same thing. Having mastered the underlying code of the Universe, everyone had administrator permissions, so a hard collision was normal.
But!
Blocking the power of Annihilation with magic!
What kind of heaven-defying operation was this fucking thing?
He searched through the history of the entire multiverse, and couldn't find a second instance!
Even Vishanti, the ancient deity who created the magicsystem, would definitely not be able to pull out such an unreasonable defensive skill!
What on earth is the background of this human?
Where on earth did this magic pop out from?
Annihilation felt like his brain was about to not be enough.
However, amidst his shock.
A more realistic and incomparably awkward question suddenly surfaced in his mind.
Ryan actually blocked the attack.
Then in the future... did he really have to write his name backwards?!
