Chapter 673: 镇世级武器

“A snake?”

“No, it’s the Ruins World.”

The gods widened their eyes.

The Ruins World had always existed in the minds of all beings, a vague and ethereal concept, accessible only in the dimension of thought. They had never imagined it could materialize.

“This is a causality weapon,” Di Mu Qingteng said, her eyes gleaming with a smile. “It contains the endless malice of all beings. The Ruins World is like a god-beating whip, a holy sword of causality, the ultimate end of all things, the paramount killing treasure of the Six Realms. It’s difficult for anyone to withstand its blow; they could suffer the Five Decays of Heaven and Man, or be assimilated alive. Who can bear the immense malice accumulated by a world over endless eons?”

Everyone felt a profound shock.

Aberration No.: 000Name: Primordial Serpent of the Void.Aliases: Serpent of the Ruins, Serpent of Causality.Origin: An aberration born from the profound hatred and fear of all beings towards aberrations, and their intense desire to destroy them.It is the source of all evil, existing far above the Three Realms in the ultimate abyss. Its essence is indescribable; it is absolutely unknowable, incomprehensible, and inconceivable.Characteristics: Its form is a colossal spatial cage, infinitely tall, wide, and long. It instinctively seeks to devour and suppress all malevolent thoughts in the world, and is known to people as the Void Realm. Its consciousness is vast and chaotic; it cannot give birth to a self and only obeys its creator mother—Goddess Qingteng.

“The Ruins World, which gathers all aberrations, is itself the greatest aberration.” Bai Xiaosheng opened his eyes and gazed at the overwhelming aura of terror, feeling an uncontrollable shock. He murmured, “The entire Ruins World, the dumping ground for the evil thoughts of all beings, the birthplace of aberrations, is actually a living entity...”

“No, it’s a true weapon of manifested law, housing various paranormal phenomena from the entire world.” The entirely black whip shone with a lustrous glow, emitting an uncontrollable sense of destructive chaos and madness that surged boundlessly, immeasurably. The entire azure sky seemed to be stained black, as if a full moon night had suddenly descended. This wasn't true darkness, but extreme darkness born from human hearts, an extreme hallucination induced in those who witnessed it.

Everyone watched the terrifying weapon in awe. It resembled the Xuanyuan Sword, with landscapes, sun, and moon etched upon it. Strange, grotesque demons moved and lived within it; it was filled with various bizarre aberrations, as if it were an ancient ‘Book of Mountains and Seas’.

“Next, this is our world’s arcane art, our world’s law phenomenon!” She lightly tossed it. “They have it in their world; how could we not?”

*Whoosh!*

The whip vanished into the void.

Aileimin's expression turned cold. She reached into the sky and fiercely grabbed a black whip from the void, sending it smashing into the distance with a powerful rush of air.

“A world, the Ruins, a causality weapon...” Caroline’s eyes widened in disbelief, and she retreated repeatedly. The story of Cat Jump had not mentioned this. Moreover, Mengmei and others were fond of keeping secrets, extremely cunning; how could they reveal their true trump cards to ordinary players?

Caroline's expression became completely solemn. “So that’s how it is? One side speaks of arcane arts that twist laws, and this side speaks of hidden causality, retribution, and the Five Decays of Heaven and Man... Essentially, they are all the same.” Both the Ancient Lava World and the Six Realms possessed world-class war weapons. No wonder they dared to confront the Ancient Lava Land.

“Mirror Reflection.” Caroline extended her hand, and a mirror coalesced in the void. It was the Great Joy Emperor’s supreme art from back then, capable of reflecting all energy attacks. However, the moment the whip struck, the mirror silently shattered, losing all its inherent properties.

“Corrupting all things, the Five Decays of Heaven and Man...?” Aileimin gripped the god-beating whip, her face filled with delight. “The malice of the entire world resides here, enough to corrupt any law phenomenon... In the words of the Three Pillar Gods, this is a true, supremely powerful aggregate arcane weapon! It madly distorts universal laws, mastering the laws of dark destruction. Ordinary arcane arts shatter with a single strike.”

She flashed forward. With a swing of the whip. Sakura Emperor raised her white porcelain bone umbrella. This umbrella was her core weapon, even a part of her body, like her limbs. She typically cultivated three major systems simultaneously, making it incredibly resilient.

*Crack!*

The umbrella sank, and its white porcelain turned black, as if contaminated by something terrifying, beginning to decay. “It corrupts the physical body; it’s practically the bane of all physical cultivators.” Caroline retreated, her expression suddenly turning grim. “It seems there’s no longer any point in continuing.”

“You want to stop?” Aileimin’s expression was calm as she flicked the long whip. “Do you think that’s possible?”

“It’s the best option.” Caroline smiled, still appearing unconcerned. “If I could easily defeat you without effort and then rule this world, that would be ideal. However, reaching this stage, waging further war would already come at a cost to me.”

“We don’t have a life-or-death vendetta. I’m not like the Three Pillar Gods, who need to absolutely invade you and become mortal enemies, because I still need to develop my own world.” She spoke earnestly. “We have no direct conflict; we’re not desperate to gain something from each other.”

Aileimin still smiled, waving the whip. “Do you still believe you can escape unscathed?”

Caroline chuckled, “Just now, I only used fifty percent of my combat power.”

Aileimin stared at her.

The gods were horrified. The Mother Earth Goddess had revealed this world’s greatest trump card, the Six Realms’ foremost causality killing weapon, yet the opponent still had a trump card? Was it possible that she had only used fifty percent of her power so far?

“I’ve been using your cultivation systems: arcane arts, body cultivation, Nine-Turn Mystic Arts... But do you know what ‘Death God Immortality’ means?” She suddenly raised her arm high. “This is our true civilization’s cultivation method.”

“This Pangu body of mine is too vast. Without an inner world as a power source, continuing would simply be a waste of energy. So, I’m handing over all this clay to you!”

Caroline’s mind reeled.

A gate to the Void Paradise opened, as if revealing a passage to a cosmic world. Endless, ethereal, transparent powerhouses—the souls of deities—slowly emerged. This included not only the two lava deities they had just killed, but also patriarchs from ancient times such as Hailan Dong, the Nine-Headed Serpent, and Dragon Pearl. One by one, powerful deities instantly carved away Caroline’s giant body, turning her flesh and blood into numerous smaller, physical deities that descended upon this world.

“It’s really a Pillar God! The Fourth Pillar God has opened her racial civilization’s passage?”

“She’s distributing her physical substance to those virtual deities in the mental universe!”

“She’s truly bringing a terrifying, unknown, vast civilization to this world!”

Everyone’s expressions changed.

One, ten, more than seventy deities continuously poured out. There were many intermediate deities, including Hailan Dong, a high-level deity. Most terrifyingly, these deities from the mental realm had all utilized the clay and flesh to create formidable bodies through the Nine-Turn Mystic Arts, body cultivation, and the three major cultivation paths of the All-God system. Having cultivated several methods simultaneously, their combat power was incredibly exaggerated.

“The rest, condense!” She reverted to her ordinary body, stepping out of the colossal giant’s corpse, and blew lightly. It was as if inflating a colossal balloon. After more than seventy deities materialized, the remaining bulk of her giant body astonishingly transformed into a massive mechanical white porcelain battle armor. Countless deities took flight and positioned themselves within it.

“This is Death God Immortality.”

“By combining the substance of all gods to create life, I can, at any moment, materialize an entire civilization from a mental universe and manifest it in this dimension.”

“One person is the Pillar God of a civilization’s destiny. As you said before, I am the opposite of a Pillar God.”

Caroline, having returned to her small stature, stood on the head of the mechanical battle armor giant, holding her umbrella. “This is the Isuldars’ strongest combat machine, driven by over seventy true gods. I also possess world-class weapons. Do you truly wish to wage full-scale war against me?”

This was a mechanical armored warrior, appearing from afar like refined ceramic clay, massive yet intricate, as if a terrifying killing weapon from an unknown ancient civilization. Just standing there, it distorted laws.

“Is this construct also a twisted law phenomenon formed by the convergence of tens of billions of beings, a civilization’s?” Aileimin’s expression slightly changed. At their level, individual combat power was certainly important. However, before breaking through to the Ninth-Order World, what was truly terrifying was having a sufficiently profound civilization as a foundation—a pseudo-world-class weapon formed by billions of beings from a single world. Generally, the number of cells a single individual could integrate was far inferior to the collective thoughts and spiritual power gathered from a true world. After all, sheer numbers could indeed lead to qualitative change. This was precisely why vast numbers of beings could converge to form a law phenomenon. This was both their foundation and their trump card. Only super civilizations approaching the Ninth Order could possess such power. It was also a byproduct weapon explored along the path to the Ninth Order.

Whether it was the Three Pillar Gods, who gathered hundreds of millions of beings, or the Ruins World, which gathered hundreds of millions of grievances, or the mechanical armor that gathered countless beings, they were all merely different manifestations of the same path. While various transcendent civilizations appeared to develop differently, they were all converging, coincidentally, at various crossroads, onto the same ultimate path: They were researching how to construct beings in this manner, to walk the true Ninth-Order World path that belonged to living creatures.

“Then, we truly must stop,” Aileimin said softly.
