System Possession, One Sword Shocks the Gods

254: Before the throne, the boundless reappears.The energy storm had not yet fully subsided, and spatial fragments scattered everywhere like sharp, glass rain.

Ye Chen transformed his body into a streak of Chaos light, pushing his speed to the limit.

Against the violent turbulence, he fearlessly charged through the death channel he had carved with a single sword strike, aiming directly at the towering throne of bones that exuded a suffocating pressure!

On both sides of the channel were countless monsters, temporarily thrown into Chaos and stunned by the aftershocks of the previous collision.

Their scarlet pupils reflected that resolute figure, and they let out increasingly manic roars, yet they dared not immediately surround him due to the destructive aura that had not yet dissipated.

On the throne of bones, the writhing shadow seemed not to have expected that after taking a hard hit, Ye Chen would not only fail to retreat but would instead charge closer with such determination!

On its gradually clarifying outline, two points of scarlet light, like the abyss of a blood prison, suddenly lit up, locking onto the rapidly approaching Ye Chen.

They were filled with monstrous rage at being offended and a hint of... imperceptible shock.

”Court death!”

The shadow let out a hoarse, twisted roar.

That dark, cracked bone claw reached out again, fingers splayed.

Within its palm, a miniature dark singularity that seemed capable of swallowing all light instantly formed!

Around the singularity, space collapsed inch by inch, emitting a groan of being overwhelmed, and a force of suction and annihilation, far exceeding the previous one, enveloped Ye Chen!

This strike already carried a portion of the true power of the Abyssal Lord; it was by no means comparable to what came before!

Ye Chen’s pupils constricted, and the hairs on his body stood on end!

He felt his forward momentum suddenly stall, and the Chaos Qi flowing around him was forcibly pulled and swallowed by the dark singularity; even light could not escape!

His body felt as if it were about to be dragged into that eternal void and completely decomposed!

He could not retreat!

Nor was there anywhere to retreat!

Behind him was a million-strong demon tide, and ahead was the manifestation of the Abyssal Lord!

There was only moving forward!

”Roar!”

Ye Chen let out a low growl like an injured Vicious Beast.

Inside his body, the chaos minor world vibrated crazily at an unprecedented frequency.

The tender seedling with three-leaf Chaos Dao patterns in the center shone brilliantly, unleashing the Origin power absorbed from the Pool of Origin without reservation!

He forcibly steadied his figure, resisting the terrifying suction.

In his eyes, that ultimate sense of emptiness and void slowly emerged once again!

”Chaos... Limitlessness!”

He no longer attempted to activate a specific Move, but instead forcibly condensed his own brief yet profound realization of the ”Limitlessness” realm within himself!

He wanted to once again touch that Origin power which transcends ”Being” and returns to ”Nothingness”!

In an instant, with Ye Chen as the center, an eerie ”emptiness” spread out.

The surging Chaos Qi, the sharp Sword Intent, and even his own ”sense of existence” around him were all retracting and disappearing at an astonishing speed!

It was as if he were about to transform into the initial ”Nothingness” of this world, untouched by all laws, with no Karma existing!

When the terrifying suction of the dark singularity touched the edge of this ”Limitlessness” Domain, it suddenly seemed to lose its target, becoming chaotic and powerless!

The ”existence” it targeted was disappearing, and its power lost its anchor point!

”This power again!” the shadow on the throne let out a sharp cry of shock and rage, its two points of scarlet light flickering violently.

”Impossible! You mere ant, how can you touch the Origin multiple times?!”

It felt a suppression and threat originating from the level of life itself!

This power of ”Nothingness” happened to counter its manifested body, which was condensed from extreme ”Being” (Devilish Qi of the abyss and the resentment of bones)!

”Condense for this seat!” the shadow roared madly.

Beneath the throne, countless bones and remnants of divine weapons erupted with sky-piercing resentment and Devilish Qi.

Like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, they surged crazily into the shadow’s body, accelerating its condensation, attempting to use absolute power to forcibly burst this eerie Domain of ”Nothingness”!

The power of the dark singularity increased again, and the suction surged, causing even the surrounding space to begin being torn in like a rag!

Ye Chen, in the state of ”Limitlessness,” remained expressionless, his eyes hollow.

He was under immense pressure; maintaining this state was devastating to his Divine Soul and Origin.

He felt his consciousness slipping toward absolute void; once he completely sank into it, he would never be reincarnated for all eternity.

Yet he still firmly stepped toward the throne, one step at a time.

He walked very slowly, as if bearing the weight of the entire world.

With every step he took, the scorched earth beneath his feet, stained by Devilish Qi, briefly recovered a trace of its original color, and the violent resentment and Evil Qi retreated as if encountering a nemesis.

The distance between him and the throne was shortening at a speed that appeared slow but was actually unyielding.

Eight hundred zhang... five hundred zhang... three hundred zhang...

The outline of the shadow on the throne became clearer and clearer.

One could already vaguely make out a blurry humanoid silhouette with twisted horns on its head and clad in bone armor!

The pressure it exuded was infinitely close to that of the true Abyssal Lord, even triggering changes in the celestial phenomena above the Valley of Buried Soldiers as dark red thunderclouds began to gather!

”Stop him! At all costs!” the shadow issued a sharp command.

”Roar!”

The demon tide went completely mad!

Driven by the Abyssal Lord’s will, those high-level monsters that had originally hesitated out of fear launched a suicidal assault on Ye Chen from all directions, like moths flying into a flame!

They burned their demon cores and detonated their bodies, attempting to use the terrifying torrent of energy generated by the self-destruction to disrupt and collapse Ye Chen’s eerie ”Limitlessness” state!

”Boom, boom, boom!”

Continuous self-destructions rang out around Ye Chen, and violent energy impacts attacked him in waves like a tsunami!

The ”Limitlessness” Domain around Ye Chen’s body rippled violently, like a calm water surface into which a giant rock had been thrown.

His face instantly turned as pale as paper, and golden blood began to seep from the corners of his mouth, eyes, and ears!

Maintaining ”Limitlessness” was already extremely difficult; enduring such dense energy impacts brought his Divine Soul and Physical Body to the brink of collapse!

Yet he still did not stop his steps!

His eyes were hollow, yet he looked firmly toward the throne that was within reach!

One hundred zhang... fifty zhang... thirty zhang...

He could already clearly see that on the throne, at the center of the shadow’s brow, a dark divine spark compressed from countless painful Souls was slowly condensing and forming!

That was the symbol of the Abyssal Lord’s authority; once completely condensed, it meant that this manifested body would possess a portion of the Abyssal Lord’s power and would be difficult to destroy again!

”Now is the time!”

The extreme emptiness in Ye Chen’s eyes suddenly contracted, condensing into a single point of resolute cold light!

He abandoned all defenses and poured all his remaining strength, including that wisp of ancient Chaos Origin obtained from the Pool of Origin, into his right index finger!

At his fingertip, there was no brilliance, no fluctuation, only an ultimate sense of ”return to silence” that seemed capable of negating even ”Nothingness” itself!

”Limitlessness... return to silence!”

He pointed his finger, not at the shadow’s body, but at the dark divine spark that was forming at the center of its brow!

This finger strike transcended all his previous attacks; it was the final and most extreme assault he launched against the ”Chaos Limitlessness” realm, with his life as the wager!

”No!”

The shadow on the throne let out a shriek of extreme terror; it felt a fatal threat!

It frantically mobilized the power of the throne, attempting to block, attempting to dodge!

But, it was too late!

Ye Chen’s fingertip seemed to traverse the barriers of time and space, ignoring all defenses of energy and matter, and with absolute precision, struck the dark divine spark that was about to form!

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
