Black Death Sword

A half-meter-wide shadowy crevice stretched out between Kino and Arishem in this desolate vacuum, from which thick, inky darkness surged forth, and a black longsword, carrying a chilling aura, slowly emerged.

The sword's blade is entirely a deep black, as if it has swallowed up all light, but upon closer inspection, it reveals dark red veins that resemble dried blood.

It sensed something as soon as it appeared.

Celestials!

Hatred for the Celestials!

And the host that possesses the Symbiote!

Three conditions have been met.

The black longsword transformed into a black streak of light, hurtling straight toward Kino.

"Black Death Sword!"

Arishem also recognized the weapon.

The weapon that once killed the multiverse-level observer [Erebus].

His death became an Absolute Point in Time, one that no one could change.

We must not let him get the Black Death Sword.

A vortex-like star will appear in Arishem's hands.

Great Attractor

This is an unknown celestial body with extremely strong gravity, or a mass that could be ten thousand times the mass of the Milky Way.

It can cause the Milky Way and hundreds of galaxy clusters, including the Virgo Cluster, to approach it at a speed of 600 kilometers per second, making black holes seem like ants in comparison.

The moment the Great Attractor took shape, spacetime seemed to be paused, and everything stood still.

Even the Black Death Sword, which was hurtling forward, froze in mid-air.

Immediately afterwards, a terrifying suction force erupted from the Great Attractor, and the surrounding matter, including the Black Death Sword, was sucked into it at an unimaginable speed, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Before Arishem could even catch his breath, remembering something, he was about to erase the Great Attractor in his hand.

Suddenly, a familiar the Snap rang out.

Reality: The Black Death Sword disappeared into the Great Attractor.

False: The Black Death Sword that appeared in Kino's hands.

Replace!

The Black Death Sword appeared in the giant golden hand, but it looked almost like dust.

Just as Kino was about to exit God Mode, the black sword extended tentacles and pierced into Kino's body.

A sinister blackness crept up his palm, covering his entire arm and threatening to penetrate even Kino's brain.

The Black Death Sword possesses self-awareness; apart from Knull, all its hosts are its puppets, puppets that kill gods!

Kino knew this, but he didn't stop him; even if his body consented, it wouldn't matter.

[Roll!]

A roar echoed in Kino's mind.

The black sword that had just passed Kino's shoulder jolted violently and retreated.

He was beaten by his own descendants?

Is it just my imagination?

Try again...

You're giving me too much credit!

Venom's disgruntled voice rang out.

Then, Symbiote with golden markings appeared in other parts of Kino's body and rushed into the Black Death Sword.

The black sword trembled violently in Kino's palm.

Something's wrong with this descendant!

Why were they able to rebel against their progenitor?

Arishem hesitated for only a moment before a black hole appeared behind him, about to swallow him up and take him away from this universe.

In reality: Spatial abilities can be used freely.

False: Spatial abilities cannot be used here.

Replace.

The black hole behind Arishem has disappeared.

"Don't rush off, Arishem, I'd like to hear more of your teachings."

At this moment, Kino's golden body was covered in black, with a demonic pattern made of golden flowers on his chest, and his human features had been transformed into Venom's hideous face.

He carried a massive black sword with gold patterns on his shoulder, and having shed his initial evil and chaos, he now exuded an eerie yet sacred aura.

But this aura made Arishem feel an unprecedented sense of danger.

"..."

"Let me leave, and I promise, no more Celestials will ever appear in this universe again."

Arishem paused for a moment, weighed the pros and cons, and then slowly spoke.

When God realizes that humanity possesses the weapons to kill him, can he still maintain his supreme status?

Answer: No!

"These are your last words?"

Kino opened his sharp-toothed mouth, his long tongue licking his fangs. Perhaps it was because of the Black Death Sword, but he was very excited.

Arishem stopped speaking.

Behind him, countless fragments of stars began to gather frantically.

In the once tranquil void of the universe, quantum flows and dark matter surged wildly, forming a massive vortex of matter under the influence of gravity.

At the center of the vortex, a sphere emitting a ghostly blue light began to condense, and countless silver arcs of electricity meandered across its surface, as if it were alive.

This is Supernova Embryo, inside which hydrogen undergoes nuclear fusion at an extraordinary speed under extremely high temperature and pressure.

"Simulated Big Bang, you intend to blast a hole in this universe. Have you considered that this universe will also be destroyed, Lord Arishem, the creator of peace?"

Kino looked at him with a mocking expression.

"I will confess my sins to the leader, but only if I am still alive."

Arishem's hands moved in a series of mysterious hand seals, and his eyes flashed with various complex cosmic formulas and runes.

Under his control, seven more stars of different colors began to take shape around the Supernova Embryo.

They are a fiery red dwarf star, a softly glowing orange giant star, a gas giant with a storm-filled surface, and four mysterious neutron stars.

At the moment of their birth, these celestial bodies were drawn together by an invisible force, beginning to rotate at high speed around the Supernova Embryo, forming a huge Celestial Matrix.

In just a few seconds, he fulfilled all the conditions for the Big Bang.

"Let me leave now, and I can stop the explosions, repair these star systems, and even give you some Celestials corpses. I will also petition the leader to ensure that no more Celestials appear in this universe."

"Your abilities are powerful, but they also require energy. You've killed me 432 times; you no longer have the energy to stop this massive explosion."

Arishem, in his final moments, also hoped for a win-win solution.

He didn't want to betray his duty, nor did he want to die.

"That sounds really appealing."

Kino thought for a few seconds, then said playfully under Arishem's expectant gaze.

"But I refuse! I'm going to kill you today, no matter what!"

Arishem remained silent.

He is now experiencing anger at being fooled.

"You'll regret this, Demon King!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the core temperature of the Supernova Embryo in his hand rose higher and higher, and the internal pressure reached an astonishing value.

Finally, with a deafening roar, the Supernova Embryo began to explode.

In an instant, an incomparably dazzling light illuminated the entire universe.

This light also attracted the attention of other powerful figures.

[Is it nice? Should we get closer?]

Tempting voices rang in their ears.

These entities have all shifted their focus.
