Truth Although there is no expression on that blank face, the trembling deep in his soul is real.

He stared intently at the five pitch black metal spheres in Ian's hands - Void Core.

"Are you crazy?"

For the first time, obvious fear appeared in Truth's voice.

As a reader of Akashic Records, he knows better than anyone else the horror of Void Energy. It is not an ordinary destruction, it is an erosion of the foundation of existence.

If these five cores detonate at the same time, the released Void Energy will not only swallow the planet instantly, but also burn through a large hole in the law of the universe just like strong acid corrodes metal, causing the entire plane to be poured back by the turbulent flow of Void from outer space.

That would be irreversible Ultimate Destruction.

"I'm not crazy."

Ian played with the core in his hand, his tone as calm as if he was talking about today's weather, "I'm just negotiating terms with you. As an emperor who owns dozens of galaxy territories, I'm used to sacrificing some planets for the greater good. Destroying this place is just a loss of an unimportant resource point for me."

"But for you, it means death."

Truth was silent. He could feel the determination in Ian's words. This alien wizard exuded the aura of a cold ruler, the indifference that can only be possessed after seeing countless life and death.

"What do you want?" Truth asked.

"It's very simple."

Ian suddenly laughed, he threw it casually, and five Void Core flew into the sky like ordinary iron balls.

"Give you a gift."

Boom--!!!

Five cores detonated simultaneously in mid-air.

There was no earth-shattering fire, only silent collapse.

The black Void cracks tore through the sky in an instant, like five greedy giant mouths, wildly devouring all matter and energy around them. The space itself was wailing, and the laws were disintegrating.

"Asshole!"

Truth roared angrily. He ignored attacking Ian and instantly appeared in the center of the explosion.

He must stop this power. If Void is allowed to spread, He, as the collective will of this world, will be the first to be assimilated.

Countless white light ribbons shot out from Truth's body, which were the huge Soul Energy he called. He tried to use these energies to build temporary pocket dimensions, wrap the exploding Void Energy in them, and offset the "destruction" through continuous "creation".

Zizzizi--

Void collided violently with Soul Energy, making a tooth-piercing friction sound.

Ian stood on the ground, watching the struggle between God and Void with cold eyes.

"Morgana, scan him."

"Executing, Master."

In Ian's special vision, Truth is in an extremely weak state at this moment. Due to the "denial" of mankind around the world, his power has been greatly weakened. Now he has to devote most of his energy to suppressing Void, and his defense mechanism has dropped to a historical low.

"Scan results show..."

Morgana's voice was filled with surprise, "Truth is not a pure consciousness, it is an extremely special Pure Energy Lifeform (Energy Species)."

"Moreover, there is a fourth dimension in His Life Code - Energy Dimension."

Ian's eyes lit up.

Prior to this, Arcane Empire's genetic research showed that life is usually composed of three dimensions: body, soul, and blood. The discovery of Pure Energy Lifeform like Truth has undoubtedly filled in an important puzzle piece on the map of life.

"Write it down. This is a priceless treasure."

At this moment, Morgana issued a warning. "Master, Truth is adapting to the erosion speed of Void. The amount of soul reserves he has used is too huge. At this speed, he will be able to deal with us in five minutes."

Ian glanced at the Void crack that was gradually shrinking in the sky and nodded.

"Then add some spice to it."

He took out an inconspicuous remote control from the ring and pressed the red button.

High-dimensional space, the "home" of Truth--Knowledge Dimension.

This was originally where Truth stored the treasure house of knowledge acquired from Akashic Records, and it was also his core territory.

But at this moment, countless dull explosions occurred here one after another.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Those Alchemy divisions who have been induced by "Bio-Puppets" to carry out Human Transmutation and have briefly entered here in the past few decades have actually become the porters of Ian unknowingly.

Each of them left some tiny, extremely unstable Space Bomb here.

Now, these bombs were detonated simultaneously.

Knowledge Dimension's space structure began to collapse, and countless precious knowledge light balls were shattered in the turbulence.

"No--!!!"

Truth, who was suppressing Void in this world, let out a shrill scream. That was his lair and his thousands of years of hard work!

He had to separate part of his consciousness again and forcefully cross the dimension to go back to put out the fire.

"Damn wizard! Despicable thief!"

The roar of Truth resounded through the sky. He finally understood everything. From Meme Virus to Void Bomb, and then to the house theft, all these conspiracies were just for this moment.

Seeing Truth's embarrassed appearance, Ian showed a satisfied smile.

"Now, the stage is finally clear."

He waved his hand and three pieces of Divine Artifact appeared in front of him.

Projection of Invisibility Cloak. Elder Wand. World Gate.

"Morgana, start [Authority Usurpation Program]."

"Target: Truth."

"Execute."

The figure of Ian slowly rose into the sky, and the Elder Wand in his hand pointed at the white god who was struggling to support himself.

"Game over, Truth."

"Now, hand over your Divine Authority."
