Chapter 1214 - 555: Inheritance! (Part 2)

The gray-white Dao domain, at this moment, has transformed into a real entity, possessing a black-and-white sky, embellished with countless Dao principles and stars... a world prototype!

"Today, I am not devouring, but... redeeming!"

"Reincarnation world, suppress!"

Xu Ran lifted his hands towards the sky, and that newly-born reincarnation world unexpectedly emerged from his body, infinitely expanding, turning into an expanse larger than the Prison Suppression, and in turn, enveloping Prison Suppression’s gigantic form!

Within this world, Xu Ran is the sole sovereign!

"Order of reincarnation, strip away!"

With Xu Ran’s words, laws followed.

Prison Suppression’s enormous form began to peel away layer by layer at a speed visible to the naked eye, disintegrating inch by inch!

The Divine Gold, Immortal Bone, and war relics melted within it were decomposed by the power of reincarnation, transformed into the most pure source material, integrating into this world, becoming the "soil" of the world.

And those imprisoned powerful souls were drawn by a gentle force, released from their cages.

"Thank... you..."

The shriveled silhouette of the Divine Court Emperor was the first to break free. He nodded weakly at Xu Ran, and then his remaining soul transformed into a streak of golden light, not dissipating, but actively merging into Xu Ran’s reincarnation world, becoming the brightest star... the Emperor Star!

Following that was the Heaven-Reaching Sword Master from the Sword Dao era, whose remaining soul transformed into a sword-shaped mountain range that spanned the world!

Then came the logical dominator of the mechanical Divine Dao, whose remaining soul became the web of laws maintaining the world’s operation!

...

One supreme figure after another who had once shaken an era, after liberation, chose to transform their last power into a part of Xu Ran’s reincarnation world!

They are using this way to continue their "Dao" and for this latecomer, forging the most solid foundation!

Prison Suppression’s form is shrinking rapidly.

Xu Ran’s reincarnation world is swiftly being perfected and expanded!

This is a tragic yet magnificent... legacy!

However, just as Prison Suppression was about to be completely decomposed, and all Heroic Spirits were about to be entirely redeemed, a terrifying will capable of freezing the entire furnace core descended without any premonition!

It was not the power of Prison Suppression, nor was it the power of the furnace core itself.

It came from... beyond the furnace core! From that higher, further, unfathomable... unknown place!

Buzz—

The entire furnace core space was utterly solidified.

Time, space, laws, energy... everything, before this will, fell into absolute stillness!

Even Xu Ran’s reincarnation world, which was frenziedly expanding, halted. He felt as if he was pressed by an invisible cosmos, unable to move even a finger!

Only a cold, emotionless mechanical synthesized voice sounded slowly in everyone’s sea of consciousness.

"Detected abnormal energy fluctuation in ’furnace core’..."

"Detected ’firewood’ being transferred in an abnormal manner..."

"Error recognition: Code Geng Chen 739 ’firewood’, elevated to ’anomaly’."

"Threat level assessment in progress... Assessment complete. Level: Extinction."

"Initiating final cleanup protocol... ’Zero’ program loading..."

The voice, without a source, yet omnipresent. It seemed to sound from within each Dao principle Crystal Stone, from every inch of void, and from the deepest part of Xu Ran’s Divine Soul at the same time. Cold, merciless, without any wave of life that it should carry, as if it were an iron law etched since the birth of the cosmos, the embodiment of ’law of the skies’!

Before this will, Xu Ran had just broken through to Daoist Monarch Fourth Heaven, and the reincarnation world that merged with the will of countless Heroic Spirits was as fragile as a sheet of thin paper. That newly established "order of reincarnation" before this absolute "law of the skies" was as if a child’s doodle, easily frozen, suppressed, unable to maintain even the most basic operations.

The power within him seemed to be sealed in Profound Ice for millennia, his Divine Soul nailed in the sea of consciousness, unable to even turn a single thought.

This is... the law of the skies?

Merely a descending will, without even revealing the true form, could turn all his resistance and struggles into a joke.

That newly ignited flame of hope seemed to be extinguished completely by this ruthless ice at an instant.

Within Pioneer, Zhen Shan, Cang Shi, and others also fell into thought stasis, their eyes filled with shock and despair, frozen into eternal moments. They couldn’t even comprehend the greatness of the existence they were facing.

"Zero program... 10%... 20%..."

The cold voice, like the countdown to the apocalypse, struck in Xu Ran’s consciousness.

He could "see" a formless light constructed of pure "order" condensing outside the furnace core. The light contained an ultimate erasure power; it wasn’t meant to destroy but to eradicate all existence from the roots, as if they never existed.

Once this light falls, not just him, Xu Ran, but the entire furnace core, along with all the civilization remnants and indomitable Heroic Spirit imprints carried within it, will return to "nothing".

Unwilling!

A wave of unprecedented unwillingness erupted like subterranean molten lava from the deepest part of Xu Ran’s will!

I, Xu Ran, have risen from insignificance, treading through Corpse Mountain and Blood Sea, undergoing countless trials before arriving where I am today! I carry the trust of the Ancient Tree of Light, bearing the expectations of countless ancient Heroic Spirits! I am not anyone’s "firewood", nor am I data that can be arbitrarily "zeroed"!

My fate, decided by myself!

"Roar——!!!"

A silent roar exploded in his Divine Soul! This pure will miraculously broke through the absolute stillness blockade, allowing his thoughts to regain a trace of flow!

And just at this moment, the countless Heroic Spirit remnants that had merged into the reincarnation world seem to have also sensed his unyielding will, burning their last brilliance at the same time!

"Young friend... The law of the skies... cannot be resisted... But... order, also has... loopholes..."

The Divine Court Emperor’s weak yet majestic Divine Thought sounded like a thunderbolt in Xu Ran’s sea of consciousness. His remaining soul, that form which had become the Emperor Star, at this moment, burned incomparably bright, releasing a light of will surpassing its peak during life!

"With my remnant form... for you... open a chance of survival!"

"Sword come!" The sword-shaped mountain range formed by the Heaven-Reaching Sword Master emitted an ancient, reverberating sword chant, counter-cleaving upwards!

"Logical... overload... calculation... breaking wall... possible!" The dominator of the mechanical Divine Dao, pushed the web of laws it formed to the extreme, countless rays intertwining, seemingly searching for the only, that one in a billion... flaw in the "law of the skies"!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

One after another, epochal figures, one unyielding Heroic Spirit after another, at this moment, made the same choice!

They chose not to eke out a living, nor choose to attain another form of "immortality" within the reincarnation world. They chose to transform their last existence into the most brilliant fireworks, for Xu Ran, for this chosen "breaker", to offer the final rite!

Countless rays of will converged into a torrent, fiercely crashing into that invisible "law of the skies’ prison"!

Buzz—!!!

The entire furnace core space trembled intensely!

That absolute still state, astonishingly showed a bit of... looseness!

"Zero program... 54%... unknown interference detected... recalibrating..."

For the first time, the Executor of the law of the skies showed a trace of fluctuation in the voice, albeit still cold, yet no longer that smooth.

This is the moment!

Xu Ran’s eyes suddenly turned blood-red! He knew this was the only opportunity bought for him by the ancient Heroic Spirits with their lives! Perhaps only a brief instant, perhaps not even an instant!

Escape? Where to escape?
