At that moment, behind Old Shui, within the boundless expanse of space-time, a finger slowly extended.
Its mere existence was difficult to imagine.
It was not made of flesh and bone, but woven from galactic fibers and dark-matter veins. Nebula-like haze curled around its fingertip, every fingerprint was a ripple spreading from gravitational waves, and its palm lines extended like the cosmic web, unfolding folds of space-time across billions of light-years.
Each time it pierced through a timeline, a layer of "white haze" wrapped around its surface.
If a certain Yuan saw it, he would definitely find it extremely familiar.
Good grief, wasn't this "vacuum decay"?
And these were no longer individual white marks of "annihilation" level, but something even more numerous and deadly.
The main universe had its own countermeasures. Naturally, parallel universes had theirs as well.
As an experienced "senior agent," Old Shui could only hope to hold on for a while, until the defensive mechanism of this parallel universe had built up to a certain level.
Then it could drive this indescribable monster back.
Things unfolded just as he had expected.
As the "white marks" accumulated, the finger that stirred the constants of the universe gradually became transparent.
This showed that "vacuum decay" was not ineffective against it.
There's actually a ninth-tier species hidden in this universe, trying to invade the main universe. But theoretically, shouldn't only a ninth-level civilization be able to create such a creature?
A conspiracy. A huge conspiracy!
This is an event I'm completely unqualified to participate in!
The so-called "major event" was professionally known as a "multiverse crisis."
Once such a crisis occurred, let alone him—even the several directors of the Space-Time Administration might not be able to handle it.
They might even need the help of a ninth-level civilization to get
