Close of a Thousand Years! One-Below-All?
Chen Ji suddenly realized.
At this moment, he had understood the true nature of Black Winter.
This also explains why energy entities and Entity also became part of Black Winter.
It turns out that the Black Winter is a parasite.
It can parasitize all things in the Aether Universe.
Including... Aether!
Therefore, Black Winter can exist for a long time because everything has a Black Winter host; even if one host dies, another will survive.
And so it is reborn Infinity with the Cosmic Cycle.
To solve the Black Winter, all the parasites must be found and wiped out.
But that's impossible.
Because the Black Winter has permeated everything.
Unless you can reset everything in the universe!
"So... the occurrence of the Cosmic Cycle wasn't just for restarting; the redistribution of resources was also to guard against the Black Winter and prevent it from growing stronger?"
"Everything has come to light."
"Perhaps the only place without Black Winter is my own Painted Realm Universe."
Chen Ji squinted.
The Black Winter Parasitic Flame Lord transformed into Black Surtur.
They indirectly invaded the Battleworld.
However, in his Painted Realm Universe, everything submits to him.
Even with spiritual awareness reaching every corner, no trace of Black Winter could be found.
This must be the only pure land in the universe.
Therefore, the purpose of the Aether Universe in providing him with the system and helping him becomes clear.
The goal is to cover the Aether Universe through the Painted Realm.
This would allow them to eliminate Black Winter once and for all.
Completely eliminate all parasites.
The concept of Black Winter must disappear from the Aether Universe it to be spared and restored to its healthy state.
Chen Ji understood immediately.
But before that, he must first deal with Black Surtur.
After the Flame Lord exposed his identity, Black Surtur stopped pretending and revealed a cold expression. All the flames turned into black haze, making him look like a fallen and decaying god!
"How boring."
"I originally wanted to continue playing the role of you."
"You actually saw through my disguise."
"But this farce should end now."
"I will conquer the Battleworld."
Black Winter's lips curled into a cold smile.
Immediately, he gripped the Twilight Sword tightly, but the bright Twilight Sword was also like a dark cloud, evil, cold, and terrifying.
The next second.
Black Winter swung the Twilight Sword, its blade wreathed in Rune —all Supreme Runes originating from the Dark Matter Universe and the Antimatter Universe.
All the life and Entity that he parasitized.
Parasitic.
As the Origin Rune of the Aether Universe.
It surpasses even the System Rune.
Because the system is singular, but the parasitic nature is diverse; everything can be parasitized.
This is even more advanced than the Reflection Rune!
It allows Black Winter to mobilize almost all the supreme power of the Aether Universe.
Completely equivalent to the Creator Deity.
It is almost equivalent to the Aether itself, but due to its life level not reaching the Tenth Dimension, it cannot exert its full power, which can be considered Black Winter's weakness.
Because the strength of a parasite does not depend on the parasite itself, but entirely on the strength of the host.
The current Black Winter is only at the 5.5-dimensional level.
As for the Flame Lord Surtur, who was also at the 5.5 dimensional level, it gave God Emperor Tony an opportunity!
"Black Winter?"
"Your appearance in my Battleworld is nothing short of suicide."
God Emperor Tony chuckled.
Immediately, he waved his hand, and an Unknown Rune shone brightly, suddenly unleashing a power of law that instantly suppressed Black Winter!
Even though Black Winter has reached 5.5 dimensions.
But ultimately, he was not the master of the Battleworld.
Faced with the counterattack of the Lord of the Battleworld, he undoubtedly showed signs of fatigue. The light of the Twilight Sword dimmed, and he curled up like a shrimp.
Meanwhile.
Surtur, the Flame Lord, seized the opportunity.
He suddenly unleashed a punch!
He knocked Black Winter down instantly, then gripped the Twilight Sword in his hand, and brilliant flames rose from his body, instantly dispelling the Twilight Sword's corruption.
Let the Twilight Sword once again become the supreme divine sword!
Even if you can kill me.
"I can't kill myself either."
Black Winter wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
The level dropped, and weapons were taken.
Faced with five Celestials beings, he knew he couldn't escape this calamity, but even if this vessel died, he still had countless other vessels!
He will reopen the door to the Antimatter Universe.
He manipulated all the puppets, appeared within the Battleworld, seized control of the Battleworld, and then destroyed the Aether Universe!
"Not good."
"He's actually going to self-destruct?"
"It's not your own body, so you really don't care about the pain?"
The God of Steel, the God of Technology, keenly sensed the danger and hastily retreated.
However.
Chen Ji took a completely different approach.
They actually charged straight at Black Winter!
Swirling currents surged from his palms, absorbing all the energy overflowing from Black Winter. After being purified by the Origin Rune, it was completely transformed into his own magic power!
A self-destruction capable of destroying the world...
And just like that, it all melted away.
God Emperor Tony's eyes were deep and profound.
Looking at Chen Ji's figure standing in mid-air, he was filled with both fear and admiration.
The fear lies in the fact that the God of Knowledge seems poised to break into the Seventh Dimension at any moment.
The admirable thing is that the God of Knowledge saved the Battleworld and did not choose to ally with Black Winter.
If it were any other life form, it might have been corrupted and fallen into slavery of the Black Winter.
"I will never become Black Winter's slave."
"Beyond Aether..."
"That's my goal."
A glint of light flashed in Chen Ji's eyes.
Immediately, a Supreme Runes swirled at his fingertips.
Above it are the two characters for "civilization" written in Pictographic Script.
But there was only half.
The other half resides in the Flame Lord.
"You have avenged me, and I will give you the Civilization Rune."
Surtur waved his hand.
The other half of the Civilization Rune flashed out.
The Rune on Chen Ji's fingertips rotated and combined together.
The next second.
The Civilization Rune burst forth with dazzling light.
It went directly into Chen Ji's body.
It has been integrated into the legal system of the Painted Realm Universe!
Through the interface, the Civilization Rune were also copied to the Battleworld Universe, which God Emperor Tony treasured.
"So you can reflect the Supreme Runes?"
"God Emperor Tony exclaimed in delight."
That's just like the abilities he possesses.
However, it was completely beyond his comprehension, because he was a knock-off, while Chen Ji was a direct copy.
The copied Civilization Rune also possess the full power of the original.
As long as he refines this Civilization Rune, he will be able to reach the Sixth Dimension level.
Furthermore, even the God of Steel and the God of Technology received the gift, their bodies radiating light as they stepped into the Fifth Dimension!
Because of the Origin Rune and the Supreme Runes, the Painted Realm Universe has become nearly complete, forming an independent Multiverse.
Furthermore, based on the different choices made by the residents of the Painted Realm, different parallel universes were born, which further amplified the power of the Painted Realm.
The Heavenly Dao draws upon the emotional energy of intelligent life.
It has consistently maintained the operation of the Painted Realm Universe.
"Good."
"With Black Winter dealt with, we can finally rest for a while."
"This Battleworld is more exciting than the Painted Realm. Would you mind if I found a place to go on vacation?"
Chen Ji's eyes flickered.
He saw a different dimension of the world.
It's just like the Weird World he once inhabited!
The Weird World is made up of planetary fragments.
It seems that when God Emperor Tony merged the Battleworld, he also incorporated the Weird World into Battleworld.
He had long since wandered the Weird World.
At this moment, the Weird World is no longer eerie; a completely new civilization has emerged, and the eerie has replaced all life, which is scattered throughout the Weird Plane.
The Sugar he named became the queen of this Weird Plane, ruling over all the strange things.
"I don't mind."
God Emperor Tony also needs time to refine the Civilization Rune.
He then disappeared from everyone's sight and returned to his secluded place.
"God of Steel, God of Technology."
"You can also go on adventures."
Chen Ji nodded.
Then, just like God Emperor Tony, he instantly appeared through the air.
They descended into Weird Plane.
He returned to the place where he first appeared.
Weird Plane.
Inside a magnificent palace.
The stunningly beautiful queen, dressed in a floor-length gown, suddenly opened her eyes and vanished in the blink of an eye, causing her guards to gasp in surprise.
A moment later.
The Weird Queen's beautiful eyes trembled as she looked at the familiar figure, whose memory had not become blurred but rather grew clearer. She hurriedly rushed into the arms of the uninvited guest.
"Big brother."
"Sugar."
"Haven't seen you for a long time."
Chen Ji stroked the Weird Queen's head, a relieved smile appearing on his lips.
I believe Sugar must have put in a lot of effort for the Weird World to live to see this day.
"It doesn't matter."
"As long as I wait for my older brother, that's enough."
Sugar smiled sweetly.
This doesn't match her style at all.
The strange inhabitants nearby were also astonished, having never seen the Queen with such an expression before.
Clearly, this uninvited guest is extremely important!
"Is everything alright?"
Chen Ji asked.
"Not long ago, an earthquake occurred in this Weird Plane, but I couldn't find out the truth. I always feel that there is a pair of eyes watching this place from the shadows."
The Weird Queen recounts her story in a captivating manner.
She vaguely understood that the Weird Plane had appeared in another universe.
However, the truth is unclear.
Moreover, this feeling of being watched never disappeared; on the contrary, it persisted!
"Stare?"
"It seems to have nothing to do with God Emperor Tony..."
"The Weird Plane has arrived in a place called the Battleworld, but don't worry, I'll handle it and incorporate Weird Plane into my universe."
"And you will become the Lord of the Weird."
With a wave of Chen Ji's hand.
This revealed Weird Plane that appeared out of nowhere within the Painted Realm.
It also moved all the eerie elements to the Weird Plane of the Painted Realm Universe.
The strange residents were not bothered in the slightest.
At this moment, the Weird Queen and the eerie creatures have become part of the Painted Realm.
As Chen Ji's relatives, they immediately received a response from the Painted Realm, and almost all of the strange creatures shone with a dazzling light.
An endless cosmic aura surged towards the Weird Plane.
Even the Weird Queen Sugar instantly rose to the Fourth Dimension level!
Furthermore, it is still in the process of dimensional ascension and may break into the Fifth Dimension at any time.
Because it's 'weird'.
It is also Supreme Runes.
Chen Ji had already discerned the potential within the strange entity. Because the strange entity was indescribable, it belonged to a chaotic order, approaching Chaos Entity.
If this trend continues, the bizarre may even become Chaos Entity, completely comparable to the Entity and even the Omega Titan God!
But this will take time.
Chen Ji also needs to refine the Origin Rune and the Supreme Runes he has mastered.
Until others can no longer plunder or steal it.
I will be going into seclusion for a while.
Chen Ji spoke softly.
Yet it resonated in every corner of the Painted Realm Universe.
Knowing of his existence, almost everyone heard this voice, and a sense of awe arose in their hearts. They also realized that the Creator was about to fall asleep, and they would have to rely on themselves from now on.
"Big brother."
I will protect you.
Sugar smiled.
Immediately, after watching Chen Ji disappear and appear in a bright space, he drew himself into his Vision Realm.
Located at the deepest part of the Painted Realm Universe.
Only the Composite that governs the Heavenly Dao can discover his whereabouts.
If danger arises in the Painted Realm Universe.
Then, the Composite will also emit a roar, reminding him to appear in time.
One year later.
Ten years later.
A hundred years later.
Time flows like water, ceaselessly rushing forward.
Looking back, a thousand years have passed.
Chen Ji awoke from his deep sleep.
At this moment, he had fully mastered the Supreme Runes he had comprehended, and he had integrated the Supreme Runes and the Origin Rune into his flesh and bone marrow, using the Rune as DNA molecules!
With the blessing of the Origin Rune, he has already reached the level of the Seventh Dimension.
It's only one step away from reaching the Eighth Dimension level!
Fortunately, no problems arose in the Painted Realm Universe during this period.
Chen Ji stepped out of the Vision Realm.
We've returned to the Painted Realm Universe.
A powerful and surging energy spread to every corner of the Painted Realm, making Painted Realm increasingly prosperous.
During this period.
The Painted Realm Universe has truly become a Multiverse.
Various rules and order operate smoothly in the Painted Realm.
Furthermore, due to the evolution of the Aether Universe, a large number of intelligent life forms and intelligent planets have applied to relocate to the Painted Realm Universe.
The God of Steel and the God of Technology, as pillars of the Painted Realm Universe, tacitly approved this migration through their respective judgments.
The Aether Universe is on the verge of collapse and reboot.
One by one, worlds collapsed.
But the Painted Realm Universe will endure forever.
God Emperor Tony made the same choice. Although a thousand years have passed, the Battleworld and the Painted Realm Universe have not declined. On the contrary, they have both reached the Seventh Dimension!
God of Steel, God of Technology, God Emperor Tony.
It has also reached the Sixth Dimension level.
The Black Winter Legion's attack can be completely blocked and neutralized.
However, with the appearance of Darkseid, a crisis was also secretly spreading.
Darkseid?
Chen Ji appeared in a flash.
An expression of amusement appeared on his face.
"The God of Knowledge"
"You've finally emerged from seclusion?"
"Your aura has actually reached the Seventh Dimension?"
"However... I'm afraid you don't know this, but Darkseid also reached the Seventh Dimension. He killed all the variants and also gathered an army."
"The Void Hand and Thanos, Set, Chthon, and One-Below-All..."
"They've all been summoned to the Aether Universe."
"Furthermore, it has hijacked Eternity One-Below-All, seeking to replace the Creator Deity and become the Cosmic Avatar of the next generation."
God Emperor Tony's expression was solemn.
This is the information he obtained!
In particular, it was heard that One-Below-All, the Aether Universe also appeared.
He almost felt a wave of despair.
