Chapter 818 - 460: Venerable King and Void Unleash a Blood-Boiling Combined Skill_2

So, this is the key to breaking the situation!

A twisted sound, like glass being scratched, suddenly echoed throughout the Mist Council. In that instant, both the Lord of Mist and the other six Apostles were taken aback.

"The Void Beast, indeed, it truly is you hunting other Apostles!" the Lord of Mist exclaimed, "Damn it, the true Void has arrived! Not good, Mimic Void!"

The nature of the Void is a Cosmic Void, causing all matter within the cosmos to be absorbed by this Great Void, becoming primordial matter obliterated outside the cosmos.

But the Mimic Void is merely an invention created by the Lord of Mist, a simulated form of the Void with no intelligence, no logic, no purpose, making it destined to be fake, merely a tool to complete the ceremony of Mimic Venerable King’s ascension to Godhood.

However, if the true Void arrives, things get significantly worse.

What you fear comes for you. Upon arrival, the Void Beast did not directly attack the Mimic Venerable King or the Apostles; instead, it swiftly pounced on its conceptual counterpart, the Mimic Void, and instantly devoured it completely.

Initially, the entire Mist Council was wholly covered by the Mimic Void, but now it is entirely controlled by the true Void Beast, enveloping the Mist Council in its entirety.

The Lord of Mist and the Apostles felt a chill run through their hearts.

The Mimic Venerable King temporarily escaped from the confines of consciousness, but only momentarily, because although the true Void replaced the Mimic Void, it still aligns with the concept of the former Venerable King sealing the Void.

Thus, only a brief moment remains for reaction, but this brief moment is already enough for Mimic Venerable King!

He does not oppose his ascension to Godhood, only because if he ascends here, the Apostles would ravage the cosmos, meticulously settling scores with the children he watched grow.

Now there is a better plan, even a plan for final resolution!

"Join me in obliteration!" The Mimic Venerable King knows he cannot completely escape this ceremony, and even the external Interstellar Corps and other planets rescued by the Interstellar Corps actively aid him, making the wishes and philosophical concepts he gathers exceed the critical value.

Even if he leaves, he would rapidly become a philosophical True God.

So instead, pull these Apostles and the Lord of Mist entirely into the Subspace’s end!

Just as once the true Venerable King pulled the conceptual Void, as well as all other Evil Gods, into the Subspace’s end, his optimal move now is to drag the Lord of Mist and all six Apostles into it!

If he buries them here, only two Apostles remain in the real cosmos, left to the children he watched grow, and Xue Dili...

This is all I can do...

Besides, not just himself, but also the Void Beast uses the same logic, pulling everyone here into the void!

Therefore, the Mimic Venerable King and the Void Beast, once mortal enemies, appear to perform an exhilarating Combined Skill, one on the left, one on the right, frantically dragging everyone into the void.

"You!" Both the Lord of Mist and the Apostles were utterly shocked.

Even other Apostles wanted to join this ceremony, aiming to both eliminate the Mimic Venerable King as their great enemy and use the ceremony to become Subspace Evil Gods who can operate in the real cosmos!

Indeed, their ultimate goal was never becoming True Gods; despite aligning with the Venerable King, after the Interstellar Corps explored the Subspace’s end, their purpose shifted.

Becoming gods but not becoming those imprisoned at the Subspace’s end, instead becoming True Gods active in the real cosmos.

So they think only of stealing chickens; when the whole cosmos Mimic Venerable King is absent, they can do as they wish, exhaustively turning the cosmos into their desired shape.

Whether it’s the First Apostle’s wish to plant Divine Trees throughout the cosmos, the Second Apostle’s desire to create a cosmos for only the dead, the Third Apostle wanting to devour everything, the Fourth Apostle wanting to control and rule everything, the Fifth Apostle wanting to plunge the cosmos into war, the Sixth Apostle wanting to sweep the cosmos with the swarm...

They must complete their dreams in the real cosmos!

As for their ideals clashing post-ascension?

Then it boils down to their capabilities.

But now, Mimic Venerable King’s intention is to drag them utterly into the void.

Impossible? Absolutely impossible!

The Apostles promptly abandoned the charade, exerting their full strength to flee while the Void Beast hasn’t fully devoured the Mist Council.

However, neither the Void Beast nor the Mimic Venerable King will permit their escape.

With a twisted drag and a hand seemingly controlling the Mist Council, the Mimic Venerable King acted.

Thus, even facing the backlash of their powers, the Apostles had to unleash their Authority entirely!

Instantaneously, the Mist Council resembled a miniature version of the Subspace’s end, with the Void pressing in, the Mimic Venerable King preventing Apostles with other Authorities from escaping, and the Apostles fighting desperately against the Void Beast using their Authorities.

This elevated Mimic Venerable King’s ceremony further.

"Damn! Damn! Damn!" The Lord of Mist cursed furiously, everything about to be ruined, akin to the Mimic Venerable King never anticipating the trap’s nature, and he also never predicted the Mimic Venerable King would be so deeply tainted by the void to unleash the Void Beast!

However, Mimic Venerable King miscalculated one thing; other Apostles employed Subspace Evil God’s Authorities, but he did not!

He wasn’t even part of the ceremony!

He swiftly escaped, with the Void Beast nearly covering the entire Mist Council, leaving only the final gap.

At this moment, realizing the Lord of Mist dared abandon resisting the Void Beast and instead fled without looking back, the Apostles’ resistance swiftly unraveled, even desperate to use their Authorities to drag the Lord of Mist back to the council!

"Creation·Stripping!" the Lord of Mist chanted abruptly.

Soon, the six Apostles discovered, to their horror, their Authorities suddenly unusable!

No, stripped! The powers of their Authorities were stripped from their bodies for the Lord of Mist’s use!

His true Authority is one that deprives others of theirs!

It’s akin to Xue Dili’s Full Domain Forbidden Magic.

"Damn you! We’ll wait for you at the Subspace’s end, waiting for your demise even worse than ours!"

"Hah!" The Lord of Mist sneered, escaping as the Void Beast was about to enclose the last spatial segment, fleeing the Mist Council.

In the final moments, he glanced back to see the other Apostles swept into the ripple effect of the struggle between the Void and Mimic Venerable King, their Authorities stripped rendering them as small as a lone boat in the ocean.

Lastly, he gazed at the Mimic Venerable King.

At that moment, the Mimic Venerable King had profoundly transformed, no longer a glowing humanoid form, but entirely resembling a miniature cosmos...

No! Not the Mimic Venerable King transformed into a miniature cosmos, but he holds such a cosmos in his hands, behind which lies a tightly closed gigantic eye.

At this moment, the giant eye slowly opened, also staring at the Lord of Mist...

"Buzz!!" The conceptual True God is about to be born!

And in this instant, surging power directly rushed towards the Lord of Mist, exploding upon him.

"Crack!"

The Mist Council completely closed, with the void and the newly born Venerable King starting a new cycle.

But at this moment, outside the council, the Lord of Mist laughed, bursting into unrestrained laughter.

Despite his utterly miserable state, half his body severed by the void, head cracking, and half obliterated by the New God’s mere glance, turning into a rain of blood.

Now, calling him a "person" is less apt than calling him a piece of meat.

Nonetheless, he isn’t dead yet! Being alive is victory!

"In my hands, the second New God arrives!"

"Its true name is... Order!"
