Out of Control

CKFBS—Supernova Instant Freeze.

There was no earth-shattering sound.

An icy blue wave of light spread outward from Caesar. Everywhere it reached, everything fell into stillness.

The world suddenly became silent.

Unlike the ultimate explosion of Supernova Overload, Supernova Instant Freeze focused on freezing everything.

Now, everything in the sky, including space itself, had become completely stagnant.

Only Yu Wuyi could still move freely.

In the distance, Di Tian, who had used Dragon God Claw, remained poised to strike, unable to make any further movements.

Clearly, he had been restrained by Instant Freeze.

But Yu Wuyi knew it was not over yet, because the rainbow flames in Di Tian's eyes were still burning.

The temperature of Instant Freeze was the lowest limit of this world, while Dragon God Claw was essentially something from the Divine Realm, naturally superior to this world.

Therefore, it was only natural that Instant Freeze could not freeze it.

Crack—

Just as Yu Wuyi had expected, the rainbow light at the tip of Dragon God Claw suddenly blazed brilliantly.

All the elemental power in this world was contained within that light, chaotic and violent!

As its power continued to grow, countless enormous cracks spread outward from him.

Boom—!

At last, accompanied by a deafening crash!

The blue sky shattered like a mirror, spreading across several thousand meters!

That was also the attack range of Instant Freeze!

If anyone near the Star Dou Great Forest looked up at the sky, they would see a sight they would never forget for the rest of their lives.

A massive hole hung high in the sky, as though the heavens themselves had been punctured!

And this time, the spatial fracture was different from before.

Caesar had frozen space itself, and Di Tian's dragon claw had then destroyed it.

That exchange had directly damaged space's foundation.

As a result, endless spatial turbulence erupted from within, grinding everything to pieces.

"This is bad!"

Di Tian was shocked. He had not expected this human's attack to directly reach the foundation of space.

Originally, space possessed an invisible barrier. Even if experts shattered space, at most they would only damage its surface.

This was also why many experts could travel through space—so long as they remained on its surface, they would not be attacked by spatial turbulence.

But now, that barrier had been damaged in their clash, across a span of several thousand meters!

That meant countless turbulent currents from within space would pour out of this opening, shredding everything they touched!

More importantly, the turbulence was mixed with all sorts of chaotic, terrifying energies that would surge from the opening like a tide.

Even ordinary experts would be severely injured by merely coming into contact with them!

And directly beneath that opening was the Star Dou Great Forest!

Without time to think further, black light flashed, and Di Tian transformed back into his enormous true form.

The two soul cores within him spun madly, and intense light erupted from his thousand-meter wingspan!

That light instantly enveloped the entire opening, forcibly blocking the spatial storm and violent energy!

A barrier covering such a vast area consumed an enormous amount of energy, and the soul power within him was dropping at a visible rate!

Because its foundation had been damaged, space's self-repair had become extremely slow.

At the current rate, it would likely take decades at minimum. Yet at his current rate of consumption, Di Tian could hold on for no more than seven days.

After seven days, once his soul power was exhausted, he could only watch helplessly as the void destroyed the Star Dou Great Forest.

Things had developed in a direction no one had anticipated, and even Di Tian could not help but grow anxious.

Now, he had only two ways to preserve the great forest.

The first was the worst option: during the seven days he could hold the opening back, have Bi Ji and the other savage beasts lead all the soul beasts of the great forest in a mass migration elsewhere.

But the problem was that after so many years of development, the territories across the continent had long since been clearly divided. They might not be able to find another place to settle at all.

Moreover, such a large-scale migration would inevitably attract human attention, and there was a high chance they would be intercepted by humans.

The second was to gather several Limit Douluo or stronger experts to take his place and hold back the massive void, while he used his own spatial power to accelerate space's recovery.

They would take turns in pairs until it was completely repaired.

But either of those conditions was incredibly difficult for Di Tian to fulfill.

Among the people he knew who could reach the level of an Ultimate Douluo, there was one human and two soul beasts.

But none of those three had any reason to help him with such a thankless task.

As for stronger beings from before, the only one he could think of was that lord who was currently slumbering.

But that lord had yet to fully recover. If he asked them to act now, he feared it would ruin the plan prepared over countless ages.

On one side were the soul beasts of the Great Forest now; on the other was the future of all soul beasts.

No matter who had to make this choice, it would be equally difficult.

"Did this cause a huge commotion?"

Yu Wuyi was surprised. Judging by Di Tian's actions, he knew their clash had caused a major problem.

Otherwise, Di Tian would never have diverted most of his power away from the battle.

"System, what's happening now?"

[The host and Di Tian both used abilities that exceeded the limits this space could withstand.]

[At the same time, Caesar's Supernova Instant Freeze froze this space and its foundation, while Di Tian used Dragon God Claw to destroy it, resulting in this space being truly damaged.]

[This allowed spatial turbulence and chaotic energy from the reverse side of this world to flow out through the opening.]

[The vast majority of living beings in this world cannot withstand these two forces. If remedial action is not taken in time, the Star Dou Great Forest below the opening will face a crisis of destruction.]

[Di Tian is currently using his own power to forcibly control the outflow of spatial turbulence and chaotic energy.]

Yu Wuyi finally understood.

"Then is there any way to remedy this?"

After all, he and Di Tian had caused this opening together. There was no reason to let Di Tian bear the burden alone.

And just as the system said, once the energy within that opening fell into the Great Forest, it would become an unimaginable catastrophe.

He had no desire to suddenly add so many wrongfully slain souls to his account.

[After Caesar's mode is upgraded to its Final Form, simply freeze the entire opening.]

"Final Form? Can't it be done with the current mode?"

[Caesar in Type I Mode can only freeze the opening temporarily. Within at most 30 days, the spatial turbulence and chaotic energy will break through.]

"I see. Treating the symptoms but not the root cause, huh."

[Yes.]

Yu Wuyi's gaze swept over the enormous black dragon that blotted out the sky. Di Tian's golden eyes were filled with resolve.

Even I need to reach the Final Form to solve this. He's probably thinking about how to handle the problem right now, isn't he?

The moment something went wrong, he stopped it to prevent harm from coming to his people. In that respect, he truly deserved to be called a qualified king.

But with this unexpected development, their battle would probably end here.

Barely a draw?
