Ch: 312-317
Chapter 312
"Freeze!"
Rumble—!!!
The underlying logic of the entire Universe was forcibly rewritten in that instant.
The lightless power linking that pure-white domain to the real cosmos—
the back-stage code that let the Beyonders do as they pleased—
at this moment, all of it was frozen in place by Bai Ye's brute will!
The three lofty Lower Transcendents showed surprise.
They discovered their link to the supreme Source had been severed by an utterly unreasonable force.
No longer omnipotent programmers, they had been dragged by Bai Ye from the server's backstage straight into the game's foreground.
[Warning… authority… lost…]
[Warning… connection to Source… interrupted…]
"Now—"
Bai Ye gazed at the three towering white robotic forms he had yanked inside the Wall.
A cold smile touched his face.
"Welcome to our World."
"Knull!"
Knull understood at once; his compressed darkness erupted anew.
It became countless black chains, brimming with endless spite and madness, coiling round one of the Beyonders!
The Celestials finally shook off their shock, voicing furious roars!
The rage of being playthings for eons now detonated.
Seven Cosmic Deities joined to blast the mightiest Genesis Energy at another Lower Transcendent.
Bai Ye, alone, advanced unhurriedly toward the last and strongest Lower Transcendent.
"The game is over."
He slowly raised his fist; violet-gold god-light gathered upon it, as though he held the weight of an entire Universe.
"Now it's my turn to write the rules."
The pure-white Lower Transcendent Robot hung motionless in the sea of light.
Its mirror-smooth face turned toward Bai Ye—featureless, yet conveying a calm indifference greater than any expression.
It regarded Bai Ye the way a mathematician eyes an unexpected integer.
[Paradox Entity.]
A frigid voice sounded directly in Bai Ye's mind.
[Your existence pollutes established reality; you are an error code that should not exist.]
It slowly lifted an arm, pointing at Bai Ye, and stated icily:
[All errors will be corrected; all contaminants will be purified—this is the bedrock upon which the cosmos stands, the sole truth under entropy's law.]
[What you call rule-making is merely meaningless garble before program collapse.]
Bai Ye stopped, looked at the Robot still preaching its arrogant philosophy, and suddenly smiled.
"Truth? Bedrock?" His voice dripped scorn.
"You voyeurs hiding outside the Wall dare speak of truth?"
"The so-called truth you cite is nothing but the user notice printed on page one of your lab manual—whereas I…"
The red glow in Bai Ye's eyes burned ever brighter.
"…have never bothered to read your lousy instructions."
"Move!"
Bai Ye's cry rang like the final trumpet, igniting the other two battlefields at once!
"Rooar—040!"
Knull threw back his head and unleashed a deafening roar!
The darkness suppressed by the white will burst free the instant the Beyonders' Source-link snapped.
A boundless ocean of Symbiotes became millions of writhing black tendrils, lunging from every direction at the Lower Transcendent who had just broken his chains.
"Let's see what remains of your so-called divinity once your privileges are stripped away!"
At this moment Knull's heart surged with bloodthirsty zeal.
He cared nothing for experiments or truths; these beings who had threatened and humiliated him had to be devoured utterly!
He would forge their corpses into the throne that carried him toward a higher Abyss!
On the other side, the Celestials moved again.
Seeing their earlier joint strike finally take effect, the long-suppressed Celestials naturally battered the foe while he was down.
They were makers of many Universes, incarnations of order—yet outsiders Beyond The Wall had treated them as lab rats.
That was the gravest insult to their very existence!
Now their formerly suppressed fury and shame erupted as full-fledged power.
Facing the downgraded Lower Transcendents, the Celestials held nothing back.
Arishem the Judge raised his hand; pure Genesis Energy condensed into a singularity capable of birthing a Universe.
the Seeker's eyes fired destructive cosmic rays.
Exitar the Exterminator drew the colossal blade that could slice reality itself.
Seven Celestials combined, turning violent cosmic might into a multicolored sea of ruin that slammed into another Lower Transcendent!
On two battlefields, a terror great enough to make the Multiverse quake erupted in an instant.
Knull's Dark Tendrils tore and corroded the pure-white bodies of the Beyonders.
The Robot rewrote the rules around it, turning those tendrils into harmless sand, into fragile glass.
Darkness and whiteness, devouring and rewriting—two utterly different forces clashed in the most primal contest of strength.
The Celestials' Genesis Energy met another Beyonder in an even grander showdown.
The Beyonder Robot kept deleting the energy that struck at it, while the Celestials kept forging new forces of ruin.
Creation and deletion, existence and void—two opposing concepts collided head-on.
Yet these two Lower Transcendents, even severed from their source, remained terrifyingly powerful.
They were like two Super-Computers with independent databases.
They could no longer update online, but the authority and processing power they had stored still far exceeded that of the Celestials.
In the constant clash, the seven Celestials were steadily losing ground.
But Knull was different; as the god of darkness, his might could not be underestimated.
"Hahaha…~"
Knull let out that familiar, maniacal laugh once more.
"Erase me? You lot Beyond The Wall think you're worthy?!"
His pitch-black form swelled explosively; behind him the sea of Symbiotes turned into boundless darkness, roaring as it surged toward the pure-white Robot!
"I was born of the void, raised in darkness!"
"You think you can erase reality? To me it's meaningless—I am the nothing that came before reality was born!"
With those words, Knull fully erupted, holding nothing back as he released the power of the primordial dark god.
His entire body merged into the Symbiote horde, becoming a vast Abyss that devoured every concept.
At this moment his strength truly reached the Multiverse's pinnacle.
Darkness and whiteness—two ultimate forces, diametrically opposed yet both born of the void—smashed into one another once more.
At the very center, Bai Ye's fight with the last and strongest Lower Transcendent turned strangely surreal.
"Analyzing Paradox Entity; constituent matter unresolvable."
"Execute command: Disassemble."
The Beyonder Robot slowly reached out, pointing at Bai Ye.
Instantly the space around Bai Ye began to collapse; the matter forming his body was forcibly dismantled at the most fundamental particle level!
Yet Bai Ye simply stood there, unafraid, letting that force capable of turning everything to dust act upon him.
His body disassembled, only to reassemble even faster in the same instant.
It was as though his very existence defied this Universe's laws of matter.
"Disassemble?"
Facing the Lower Transcendent's rule edits, Bai Ye's mind was utterly calm.
As a Transmigrator, his soul and body had, from birth, become partially detached from the Multiverse's underlying rules.
"My very existence is a Bug you can't comprehend."
"You want to delete me with the Antivirus you coded? Laughable."
"Command: Disassemble—failed."
"Execute command: Reality Paradox Purge."
Seeing disassembly fail, the Beyonder struck again, this time seizing control of reality itself.
The reality surrounding Bai Ye twisted frantically into nothingness; it tried to erase his existence from this reality entirely!
Yet Bai Ye still stood quietly.
His past lay in the real World beyond the true wall.
His future likewise did not rest on this Multiverse's original timeline.
Neither reality nor time held any sway over him.
"Useless."
Bai Ye slowly lifted his head, black pupils glinting with mockery.
"Every attack you launch is built on your understanding of this Universe's rules."
"But my soul's essence has already transcended this Universe, and I've learned how to wield those rules."
"Warning: target's Causality cannot be located."
"Warning: target's existence cannot be erased."
Within the Beyonder's eternally unchanging electronic voice, confusion surfaced.
Countless complex streams of pure-white light appeared across its face—clearly it was overclocking itself, trying to comprehend this paradox it could not purge.
"Still analyzing?"
Bai Ye shook his head, disappointment on his face.
"Looks like you're nothing special; my Divine Talent let me grasp this power at merely a preliminary level."
"Yet you can barely even understand the basics."
"Then… it's my turn."
Chapter 313
As he spoke, Bai Ye slowly raised his fist…
In truth, Bai Ye had long ago discovered one weakness of the Beyonders.
Although the Beyonders are supremely powerful—almost Marvel's top-tier combat force—
it seems no one could ever defeat them.
Yet they have a fatal flaw: they cannot manipulate time!
Yes, the Beyonders who surpass the Omniverse in power cannot control time… the déjà vu of an invincible time king being time-stopped is exactly the same brand of absurdity.
Don't ask if it makes sense; that's simply how Marvel's writers set it.
In the comics, Doctor Doom and Molecule Man schemed by exploiting time-based abilities.
Ultimately, they blew up the Lower Transcendents who came to help, using countless Molecule Men.
Then, through tech and the joint sacrifice of the Gray God of that era, Starbrand, Hyperion, and others, they perished alongside the Beyonders.
Don't ask how an Earthling like Doctor Doom could absorb Beyonder energy with technology.
And don't ask why a skyfather-level Thor, a Starbrand with great lore but poor showings, and Hyperion—an Eternal who mimics Superman—could beat multiversal Lower Transcendents.
It's plot armor; the goal of saving Earth must prevail, so even the One-Above-All would get slapped.
Of course, some will ask: if the power scaling is so unreasonable,
why didn't the Scarlet Witch Wanda step in? Or Phoenix, or Franklin—they're all mighty, right?
That involves other factors; in short, if those heavy-hitters actually acted,
how could Marvel showcase mortals defeating gods?
They might as well assemble Marvel's top might and wage total war against the Beyonders.
Iron Man, Doctor Doom, Captain America, Spider-Man—those street-level heroes—would be stuck clapping on the sidelines, unable to interfere.
But none of that concerned Bai Ye; he closed his eyes.
That utterly unreasonable power to set rules awakened within him once more!
"You call yourself a Beyonder, but you're just a robot at heart."
"A mere servant of the true Beyonders."
"The core directive of the Lower Transcendents is to erase paradoxes."
"A robot bound by programming yet unable to fulfill its prime directive—that itself is a logical paradox."
"An existence that is a paradox should
Bai Ye's eyes snapped open; violet-gold divine light shot forth like twin judgment blades, piercing the void.
To the frantic Lower Transcendent still computing how to analyze him, he issued his command.
"Erase yourself!"
Buzz!!!
The Lower Transcendent robot's body jolted rigid.
Countless data streams across its face turned into chaotic red static.
[Conflict of directives!]
[Core program: erase paradox…]
[Paradox detected within self…]
[Executing: self-erasure…]
[Error! Error! Error! System crash…]
Then, under the shocked gaze of the distant Celestials who had been taking a beating,
the terrifying being that had remained arrogant from start to finish began to disintegrate!
Its body weathered like a sandcastle, edges silently crumbling into primordial particles that dispersed within the Court of Creation.
It wasn't destroyed by outside force; its own base logic erased it completely.
The battle ended in an absurd fashion.
Yet it made the terror of rule-setting logic all the clearer.
While Bai Ye easily disposed of his foe, on the other side Knull's abyssal darkness ravenously devoured and corroded the Lower Transcendents.
The white robot kept rewriting rules, trying to purify the darkness, but Knull's burst of power was too horrifying.
The primordial darkness born at the Universe's dawn began to suppress the enemy's rule-force!
"Devour! Devour! Devour!"
Knull's mind roared within the dark; he would turn this servant of gods into fuel for his next ascension!
Yet just as he was about to consume it completely,
the Lower Transcendent robot suddenly unleashed power far greater than before.
[Initiating final purge protocol.]
Boom!!!
Pure white light erupted from inside the darkness; Knull let out a muffled grunt as his vast dark form was blasted open with a gaping wound!
"Damn it!"
Knull went completely berserk, throwing every ounce of power into the assault.
Dark and pure-white light clashed and intertwined, until—amid a thunderous roar—both annihilated one another.
Knull's silhouette re-emerged from the void, gasping for breath.
His already pale face turned even whiter, his aura wildly unstable.
Although Knull had destroyed his foe, he had paid a steep price.
The unleashed power had been so overwhelming that even his own consciousness began to blur.
His body flickered ceaselessly between darkness and solidity, teetering on collapse.
Meanwhile, the Celestials' battlefield had ground to a stalemate.
The seven Cosmic Deities were mighty, yet their power structure still operated within the Beyonders' rules.
Their creation energy was continually erased, their colossal forms glitching like missing data; defeat was only a matter of time.
Seeing this, Bai Ye—who had planned to simply watch—was forced to act.
He glanced first at the tottering Knull, then stretched out a hand; a gentle healing force streamed from his palm.
The healing power condensed into a beam of white light that sank into Knull's body.
It was the horse talisman's ability, evolved across Bai Ye's Multiverse into a law that dispelled every negative effect.
The dark energy about to run rampant inside Knull met its nemesis and swiftly calmed.
His flickering form stabilized, though he remained weak.
Still, the restored balance of power let him stand.
Knull stared at Bai Ye in shock, unable to grasp how the man possessed a healing law so opposite to his own darkness.
Ignoring his astonishment, Bai Ye turned his gaze to the Celestials' fight.
The seven Celestials were on the verge of defeat beneath the Lower Transcendents' assault.
"How pathetic."
Bai Ye's voice echoed in the Celestials' minds.
Without further words he slowly raised his right hand…
After mocking the seven Celestials, Bai Ye lifted his hand and snapped his fingers.
At that snap, the Lower Transcendent robot pressing the Celestials froze.
The source connection Bai Ye had severed was now re-linked—by Bai Ye himself.
[Reconnected to source!]
[Receiving supreme directive!]
Knull and the Celestials were stunned; they couldn't understand why Bai Ye would do this.
The next second, they knew.
The Lower Transcendent received the new command.
An icy voice resounded in its core program.
[Supreme directive updated: eliminate all Lower Transcendent units.]
[Target locked.]
Boom!!!
Under the dumbstruck, thunderstruck eyes of Knull and the Celestials, the once-invincible Beyonder began to commit suicide.
It attempted to erase itself on the conceptual level.
In a spectacular self-annihilation the Lower Transcendent turned to cosmic dust.
The Court of Creation fell silent once more.
Bai Ye hovered quietly in the sea of light, lowering his hand as though he had done something trivial.
He looked at the distant Celestials, now utterly dumbfounded.
Then he glanced at Knull, equally silent, eyes filled with complicated emotion.
He knew that from this day forward the Multiverse would never be calm again.
"Now…"
Bai Ye spoke slowly, voice serene.
"Does anyone else object to my rules?"
The words carried no emotion, yet pressed down harder than any furious energy.
The Court of Creation sank into an unprecedented hush.
The crimson fire in Knull's eyes dimmed, frantic will to battle replaced by something complex.
He looked at Bai Ye as though gazing upon an ultimate being born of the same source yet walking a wholly different path.
"Objections?" Knull ranted inwardly.
"Of course I have objections—but this is no longer about objections."
He could sense that Bai Ye's power—rewriting supreme directives and toying with concepts—was beyond his comprehension.
Knull understood he might destroy countless Universes,
but the man before him could decide how all those Universes ought to exist.
That was a qualitative difference.
"It seems you're even stronger than I imagined," Knull murmured in the depths of his mind.
His seething darkness began, for the first time, to feel genuine awe toward something not of darkness.
Chapter 314
On the other side, the seven Celestials reacted even more intensely.
They are the embodiment of cosmic order and the Guardians of the rules.
Their way of thinking is like the most precise cosmic computer.
At this moment, their core logic was being violently impacted by the uncalculable paradox before them, nearly causing them to crash.
[Cannot comprehend.]
[Threat level cannot be assessed.]
[Existence transcends known dimensions.]
Arishem the Judge's enormous head, composed of pure energy, slowly turned toward Bai Ye.
Confusion appeared for the second time in his vast consciousness.
Over billions of years, they had judged countless civilizations and ruled over countless Gods; everything was within their calculations and comprehension.
But today, an existence that could not be calculated, understood, or even observed...
...solved the crisis that had caused their first moment of incomprehension and confusion, doing so in a way they could not imagine.
Then, with a calm and arrogant tone, he asked if they had any objections.
This was no longer a provocation; it was a redefinition of power itself.
Finally, Arishem the Judge's voice sounded in Bai Ye's ear once more.
But this time, it carried a clear tone of humility.
[We have no objections.]
[Please instruct us on your rules.]
Hearing this answer, Bai Ye showed a satisfied smile.
He knew that from this moment on, the old order of this Multiverse had completely collapsed.
"My rules are very simple."
Bai Ye slowly ascended, reaching a height level with the Celestials.
His gaze swept over every God present, including Nall, who was still observing in silence.

"First."
Bai Ye took a deep breath, and his voice became majestic and solemn as he stated directly:
"Starting today, all Universes are forbidden from internal strife."
"Whether it is cosmic collision or your so-called judgment."
"Any act of sacrificing one Universe to preserve another will be considered a provocation against me."
He paused, his gaze resting on Arishem the Judge.
"Your duty is no longer to maintain that ridiculous balance, but to be Guardians."
"Guard every World you created, and guard every life within it."
"Second..."
Bai Ye's gaze turned to Nall, and he smiled faintly.
"My army, the Vitruvian Empire, will continue their hunt throughout the Multiverse."
"Their target is every pawn placed by the Beyonders."
"Any civilization that dares to obstruct them will be considered an accomplice of the Beyonders and will be completely eradicated."
A vicious arc curved across Nall's mouth; he liked this rule.
"Third, and most importantly."
Bai Ye's voice seemed to penetrate all dimensional barriers, echoing throughout the entire Court of Creation.
"Prepare for battle."
"Because this is no longer their testing ground."
"From now on, this place is our battlefield."
After hearing this, the seven Celestials did not engage in any further communication.
They simply turned slowly and merged into the Sea of Light of the Court of Creation, vanishing soundlessly.
They chose to retreat, choosing to acquiesce to the rule of this newly ascended God.
Because they understood that the old era had ended.
The inaction of the Living Tribunal and the silence of the Four Great Gods represented everything.
Those aloof, abstract Cosmic Gods are unreachable when there is no crisis.
Now that a crisis has appeared, they have not intervened, and have even sacrificed several Gods.
The order of this Multiverse is slowly collapsing.
With the departure of the Celestials, only Bai Ye and Nall remained in this vast Court of Creation...
"Hmph, a bunch of cowards."
Nall looked in the direction where the Celestials had disappeared and snorted disdainfully.
Bai Ye smiled, walked over to him, patted his shoulder, which was still radiating dark energy, and said frankly:
"For them, perhaps this is the best choice."
"After all, the end of order is often absolute obedience."
Nall did not refute. He simply withdrew his energy, looking at Bai Ye with complex eyes.
After staring at him for a few moments, Nall spoke in his hoarse voice:
"You fellow are truly becoming harder and harder to see through."
"I've always been this way, haven't I?"
Bai Ye's gaze swept over the darkness behind Nall, which, although stabilized, was still filled with madness and the desire for destruction.
"097" "You're not bad either; the power you unleashed just now was indeed very strong."
They were the only beings capable of speaking to each other as equals—both allies and potential adversaries.
This complex relationship always made their conversations full of honesty and probing.
"So what?" Nall's tone carried dissatisfaction.
"I still nearly lost control and had to be saved by you using that strange power."
He could feel that the Healing Power Bai Ye injected into him was not mere energy.
It was a higher form of Law Power, which deepened his wariness of Bai Ye even further.
"Alright, since the trouble is solved..."
Bai Ye didn't dwell on the previous topic, changing to a relaxed tone as he asked:
"What are you planning to do next? Go back to your Dark Throne and sleep?"
Upon mentioning this question, Nall's expression became solemn again.
He looked up at the Spatial Barrier, which had already healed due to the arrival of the Beyonders, his eyes flashing with killing intent.
"No." His voice was low.
"I will go to every Universe, find places where the Beyonders might leave traces, and hunt them."
"I will also search for ways to become stronger." Nall slowly clenched his fist.
His powerful self-confidence had been hit by an unprecedented shock during the recent battle.
"I am not strong enough yet."
Hearing Nall's words, Bai Ye couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"You're not strong enough?"
He sized Nall up and down, as if listening to a huge joke.
"In terms of raw power, you just unleashed the peak strength of the Multiverse, solving a Lower Transcendent single-handedly. Tsk tsk, that's much stronger than me."
Nall: ...Do you even hear yourself??
After a moment of speechlessness, Nall said irritably:
"You can't measure me using conventional Combat Power."
"What I did is nothing; your power is truly unreasonable."
Nall pointed at Bai Ye, ranting wildly:
"Your energy fluctuation looked similar to mine before I erupted, but your fighting is ridiculously outrageous."
"Directly rewriting someone else's Core Instructions? Making enemies kill each other? And that strange power at the end."
"I haven't even heard of those strange methods!"
The more Nall spoke, the more aggrieved he felt about his own peak Multiverse strength.
"To use your Earth terminology, fighting you is like a seasoned swordsman encountering a hooligan who only uses Dirty Tricks—there's no way to start!"
Bai Ye couldn't help but laugh at his victim-like appearance.
"There are many forms of power, Nall," he said with a smile.
"You pursue ultimate destruction and consumption, while I just want to make this game a bit more interesting."
"Interesting?"
Nall snorted, but the solemnity in his eyes dissipated considerably.
"Fine, say whatever you want. Anyway, I'm going my own way now."
Nall turned around, and the pitch-black Symbiote substance gathered around him once more.
"The Beyonders must die, but before that, I will use my own methods to become stronger than them."
"Go for it!" Bai Ye nodded, making no effort to stop him.
"You too." Nall's voice came from the darkness.
"Don't die too soon. This Multiverse would be much more boring without you."
Before he finished speaking, his figure had completely merged into the darkness, vanishing without a trace.
Bai Ye floated alone silently in this empty Court of Creation...
He watched the direction Nall had left, and the smile on his face slowly faded.
"Yes," he muttered softly, "it would be much more boring."
He knew that the war with the Beyonders had begun.
Nall chose to fight back using the most direct method: hunting.
As for him, he needed to return to his own World and enjoy himself first.
After all, all plans had already been implemented; he just needed to wait for the Beyonders to personally step into the arena.
Bai Ye stopped lingering and raised his hand to carve open a golden Teleportation Gate.
On the other side of the gate was that familiar place, a warm beach filled with sunshine and the sound of waves... white night universe, Long Island Villa.
Bai Ye stepped out of the Teleportation Gate, bathed in the perfect afternoon sun.
Chapter 315
Wanda, Susan, Martina, and Ju Ziyun were all seated around the sofa on the balcony, leisurely playing a board game.
Dijiang, Fire Phoenix, and Ink Qilin were dozing off nearby.
Sensing Bai Ye's return, they simultaneously stopped what they were doing and turned their heads in unison.
"You're back."
Wanda showed a gentle smile, stood up, walked over to Bai Ye, and naturally straightened his collar.
"Yes, I'm back." Bai Ye smiled and held her hand.
He could feel the trust and reassurance conveyed in the girls' eyes.
"Is everything resolved?" Martina asked curiously.
"It's resolved for now."
Bai Ye nodded. He walked over to the sofa, sat down, and gently pulled Wanda into his arms.
Susan handed him a glass of iced juice and also asked curiously:
"So what do we do next? Continue our Universe simulation training?"
Bai Ye took a sip of the juice, savoring the long-lost sweetness, and shook his head.
"No."
He looked at the family members before him—those who had fought alongside him and had long become the most important part of his life—and a tremendously relaxed smile appeared on his face.
"Next..."
Bai Ye paused deliberately before slowly saying:
"We're going on vacation."
Bai Ye's sudden suggestion stunned the four ladies who had been discussing their next training plan.
"Vacation?"
Susan was the first to react, blinking her eyes.
"I didn't hear that wrong, did I? Us? Going on vacation?"
In her perception, ever since she followed Bai Ye, his life seemed to consist of moving from one World-ending crisis to the next.
A real holiday was an extremely unfamiliar word to him.
"Of course."
Bai Ye leaned back on the sofa and said in a matter-of-fact tone.
"We've solved so many problems; it's time we properly relaxed."
"We can't keep our nerves constantly strained; that doesn't align with the principle of balancing work and rest."
A hint of yearning also appeared in Martina's eyes.
As a warrior who survived the apocalypse, she was used to constantly staying vigilant.
But deep down, she also longed for a moment of peace.
Martina asked with curiosity, "So... where are we going?"
"A good place."
Bai Ye smiled mysteriously. He stood up and walked to the center of the group.
"A place where absolutely no one will bother us."
He raised his hand, not opening any portal, but simply drawing a line in the void.
Instantly, the space around the five people began to twist violently like water ripples.
The living room, the beach, the ocean—everything before them was instantly stretched, disintegrated, and transformed into multicolored streams of light... Vacation Star, Crystal Coast.
When their vision cleared again, the four ladies found themselves in a fantastical World beyond description.
Under their feet was a beach composed of energy crystals, emitting a soft white glow.
Whenever a wave washed over them, these crystal-like grains of sand would collide, producing music as pleasant as wind chimes.
Before them was an ocean made of liquid light.
Countless glowing, jellyfish-like creatures floated in the warm seawater.
They dotted this boundless Sea of Light like stars in the night sky.
And above the sky, there were three Suns of different colors.
One was gold, one was blue, and one was purple.
They hung high in the sky, their light interwoven, coating the entire World in a layer of dreamy color.
"This is..."
Wanda looked at the beautiful scenery before her, her eyes filled with shock.
She could feel that every inch of space here was filled with primal life energy.
"Crystal Coast."
Bai Ye's voice came from the side; he had already changed into a pair of beach shorts.
He was now leisurely lying on a beach chair that had appeared out of thin air.
"The absolute top vacation spot in the entire Universe, bar none."
"The stellar system here provides the most perfect energy replenishment, and the Sea of Light can cleanse the deep fatigue of the soul."
"Wow!"
Susan was the first to cheer. The cells in her body were wildly rejoicing under the light of the three Suns.
A warm and powerful feeling filled her entire body.
"I feel like I could punch through ten Universes right now!"
Having said that, she excitedly rushed toward the Sea of Light like a child.
Martina and Ju Ziyun were equally captivated by the beautiful scenery before them.
They took off their shoes and walked barefoot on the beach, soaking in the tranquility.
Wanda smiled and walked over to Bai Ye, sitting down quietly beside him.
She watched Susan playing in the Sea of Light and Martina and Ju Ziyun strolling on the beach.
Then she looked at Bai Ye, who was resting with his eyes closed beside her, and a wave of happiness welled up in her heart.
"This is truly wonderful," she thought to herself.
"No fighting, no crises, no heavy pasts."
"If only time could stop forever at this moment."
Bai Ye seemed to sense her feelings. He didn't open his eyes, but simply reached out and gently held her hand.
"Don't worry," he whispered.
"As long as I am here, days like this will happen every day from now on."
Time slowly flowed by in this peace and beauty.
They completely let go of all fatigue and vigilance, playing to their hearts' content like ordinary girls amidst this miracle of the Universe.
They swam alongside strange creatures in the Sea of Light.
They chased and played on the singing crystal beach, sharing their secrets under the radiance of the three Suns.
For Wanda, this was happiness she had never experienced in her life.
There were no nightmares of the past, no fear of the future, only the present tranquility and his warm hand.
Susan also rediscovered the joy of a young girl, no longer needing to constantly play the role of the strong career woman she had adopted since her time as a reporter.
Martina and Ju Ziyun, two warriors who had also seen countless battles.
In this paradise, they too put down all the vigilance and killing intent in their hearts, enjoying this hard-won peace.
Bai Ye simply lay quietly beside them, keeping them company.
Watching the heartfelt smiles on their faces, a corner of his heart seemed to be filled by this warm light.
As a Transmigrator, even one whose physical body crossed over, he had once thought he would forever be just a passerby in this World.
But now, he had family, he had attachments, and he had a true home he would guard with his life.
A parallel Universe, New York
Despair permeated the ruined residential building.
"ROAR!!!"
Outside the window, an inhuman roar sounded, causing the entire building to tremble violently.
It was a gigantic, crimson skeleton, dozens of meters tall.
Behind it, several massive tentacles made of flesh and bone were wildly thrashing, easily smashing the surrounding buildings into fragments.
It seemed to be searching for something, its massive eye sockets, burning with Hellfire, scanning the ruins viciously.
Meanwhile, inside the residential building, a group of heroes who should have been the brightest in this World were now miserably hiding in the shadows, gasping for breath.
"Damn it!!"
Wolverine Logan leaned against the wall, a trace of blood still hanging from the corner of his mouth.
"That guy is an absolute monster! My claws can't even scratch his bones."
"It's not just physical defense..."
Storm wearily rubbed her brow, her face etched with pain and self-reproach.
"His psychic power is ridiculously strong, too. I just tried to resist it and felt like my brain was about to be torn apart."
"That's Charles's power." Colossus's voice was filled with sadness.
"Steve, what do we do now?"
Sam Wilson, the current Captain America, anxiously asked their Commander, who was also the former Captain America, Steve Rogers, via the communicator.
"Tony is unconscious, and Doctor Strange and Wanda have been captured. We can barely hold on!"
From the other end of the communicator came an aged voice suppressing rage.
"Hold on a little longer, Sam."
The voice of Elderly Captain America came from the Tactical Command Center.
"I'm figuring something out. There must be a way!"
But everyone knew these were just words of comfort.
They had run out of options... The reason this situation occurred began several months ago.
The plight of the Mutants was becoming increasingly difficult globally, as human fear and prejudice gave rise to countless acts of oppression and crime against them.
To survive, some radical Mutants also began using their abilities to resist, and even commit crimes.
Chapter 316
Conflicts escalated through repeated clashes, ultimately triggering a complete split among the superheroes.
The Avengers, led by Captain America, believed that the X-Men could not effectively restrain all Mutants.
Their very existence posed a threat to World security.
Meanwhile, the X-Men, led by Cyclops, firmly believed they must protect their own kind in their own way and would never compromise with human prejudice.
The clash of ideals eventually devolved into war.
The Avengers versus the X-Men.
It was a brutal Civil War worthy of being recorded in history.
Heroes turned against each other, and former comrades became enemies on the battlefield.
Just as they were fighting to a mutual defeat, causing the entire Earth to become unstable, the true apocalypse arrived.
A Multiverse collision event occurred.
What was even more despairing was that, besides the Universe Collision,
A giant cartographer tore through space and descended upon their battlefield.
Just when everyone thought the two Worlds would perish together, a group of warriors, dressed in White Battle Suits and as powerful as gods, walked out of a golden Portal.
With absolute power, they destroyed the cartographer in mere seconds.
Then, under everyone's stunned gaze, they departed, as if they had only accomplished a trivial task.
The crisis was temporarily averted, but the rift in the heroes' hearts could no longer be healed.
The war continued.
Ultimately, Cyclops, who had obtained the Phoenix Force, completely lost control during the final battle with the Avengers.
His Phoenix Fire, capable of incinerating the entire Universe, mercilessly consumed his most beloved mentor.
Professor Charles Xavier died.
His Death became the final straw that broke everyone.
The Civil War ended.
Due to his mental breakdown and remorse, Cyclops also lost the favor of the Phoenix Force, becoming a sinner despised by all Mutants.
However, no one expected this was merely the beginning of a greater tragedy.
Red Skull, this demon who should have long been forgotten by history, found the Professor's grave.
He dug up Charles's skull, which contained the Earth's most powerful brain.
And used a Forbidden Technology to transplant that brain into his own body.
Don't ask why the Phoenix Force, which destroys all things, left Charles's head intact; just assume it's necessary for the original plot... Thus, a disaster once again descended upon this World.
Red Skull, having gained Telepathic Ability, became a terrifying entity capable of destroying the entire World on a mental level.
He easily manipulated the brains of all Super-powered Individuals globally, triggering a worldwide super Riot.
However, Red Skull's plan did not go smoothly.
At that time, Red Skull underwent a horrific mutation because he couldn't withstand Charles's overly vast Psychic Power.
He transformed into a Red Skull Monster, dozens of meters tall, with tentacles growing from his back.
Scarlet Witch Wanda and Rogue were the first heroes to find his true body.
Prior to this, Wanda of this Universe had met Bai Ye and received some guidance from him.
Her understanding of Chaos Magic had advanced, and her power had increased.
But the cost was that her power became increasingly unstable and easier to lose control of.
She feared she would cause an irreversible tragedy, just like Cyclops.
Therefore, she dared not use her full power in this battle.
She and Rogue quickly fell into a disadvantage.
Just as they were about to fail, the X-Men and the Avengers arrived one after another.
Just when the superheroes thought victory was certain, Red Skull revealed a secret in front of everyone that sent chills down their spines.
"Tony Stark,"
His voice roared inside everyone's mind.
"Thank you for your generosity, and thank you for that analysis report on all the superheroes' weaknesses and abilities stored in your Database!"
"Based on your data, I have prepared three special gifts for you!"
Three Sentinel robots, dozens of meters tall, slowly rose from the ground.
Their bodies shimmered with the particle light representing Pym Technology.
"This is impossible!?"
Tony Stark looked at the three robots in disbelief.
"My database... How could you..."
"I truly couldn't break into your database, but your genius brain holds no secrets from me, Tony!"
The battle erupted again.
But this time, the heroes faced enemies that completely countered them.
The Sentinel robots knew all of their abilities inside and out.
They could release Gamma Rays that suppressed the Hulk's rage.
They could simulate Special Frequencies that countered Wolverine's Healing Factor.
They could even use a magic Barrier to block Thor's Lightning.
What was more despairing was that they could also fire miniaturizing Pym Particles Beams, shrinking the heroes one by one and locking them inside Energy Cages!
Doctor Strange and Wanda had originally found a Spell that could reverse the situation.
The two flew high into the sky, preparing to Joint Cast the spell.
But the Incompetent Teammate Nova rushed towards one of the Sentinels to cover them.
His reckless attack had no effect whatsoever.
Instead, it caused the Sentinel to fall to the ground, look up, and spot Doctor Strange and Wandachanting the spell.
Two Pym Particles Beams shot out instantly.
The plan failed.
Iron Man was also hit head-on by the Sentinel's Energy Cannon while protecting Spider-Man in the subsequent battle, falling into a deep coma.
"What should we do?"
Inside the ruined residential building, Sam Wilson's voice, filled with despair, echoed in the dead silence.
No one answered, because the answer was already obvious.
Wolverine was still leaning against the wall, the blood oozing from the corner of his mouth already dry.
He tried to activate his Healing Factor, but a Strange Energy was clinging to his wounds, constantly suppressing cell regeneration.
This was a Sentinel Weapon specifically targeting his healing ability.
His heart was filled with fury, not because of the pain, but because of his powerlessness.
He had fought his whole life and never feared Death, but being manipulated by the enemy and waiting to be trapped like a turtle in a jar—this was his greatest humiliation.
Cyclops took off his shattered Red Quartz Glasses and sighed helplessly, his face etched with pain and self-reproach.
Charles's Death was like a poisonous thorn deeply embedded in his soul.
He once possessed the Phoenix Force, a mighty power capable of resetting the Universe.
But he was consumed by it and committed an unforgivable crime.
And now, even the strength he had to protect his comrades seemed so insignificant.
He could feel Red Skull's Psychic Pressure, mixed with Charles's power.
It surged in waves like an invisible tide, each impact seeming to remind him:
It was you, Cyclops Scott, who killed him.
Outside the window, Red Skull's voice continued to sound, the roars of pure anger and madness drawing closer.
His gigantic eye sockets had locked onto the residential building where they were hiding.
Three Sentinel robots also slowly surrounded them in a triangular formation, like three moving cages of Death.
"I've found you, my little rats!"
Red Skull's whisper sounded in everyone's mind, carrying sickening Psychic Contamination.
"It seems we have no choice but to fight to the Death."
Wolverine slowly stood up, a Beast-like glint shining in his eyes.
He no longer cared about life or Death; he just wanted to leave a few eternal scars on that damned skull face before he died.
"For Charles."
Cyclops also stood up, his eyes filled with the determination to die.
He wanted to use his life to make the final atonement for his mentor, and for himself.
The surviving Avengers and X-Men all stood up.
They stood back-to-back, forming a circle, protecting the unconscious Tony Stark in the center.
They knew this might be their final battle.
"Everyone."
Steve Rogers' resolute voice came through the Communicator.
"It has been an honor to fight alongside you."
"Avengers..."
Just as he was about to give the final Charge Command... BOOM!!!
The entire World suddenly began to tremble violently.
It wasn't due to Red Skull's attack, but a mournful cry from the Structure of Reality itself.
The sky was instantly stained a strange crimson red.
Everyone felt a chill deep in their soul, as if the entire Universe was wailing beneath their feet.
"Wha... what is that?!"
Little Spider, relying on his Spider-Sense, was the first to notice the anomaly. He pointed at the sky, his voice trembling with fear.
Everyone looked up, their pupils suddenly contracting.
Above the crimson sky, a massive Planet—which was also an Earth—was slowly appearing.
The surface of that Planet was engulfed in raging flames, radiating the aura of the end of the World.
This reflection, resembling hell, was slowly pressing down upon the World they inhabited.
A Universe Collision had descended upon this Universe once again.
All the superheroes were stunned!
"What kind of joke is this!" Sam's voice was filled with despair.
Chapter 317
"Such a thing is happening a second time?"
They fell into despair. Was it really going to end?
Even Red Skull and the Sentinel robots outside the window temporarily stopped, looking confusedly at the doomsday-like scene in the sky.
However, before they could recover from this double despair...
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Three golden teleportation gates, familiar to everyone, unfolded without warning in the center of the battlefield between Red Skull and the heroes.
Under everyone's incredibly shocked gazes...
Three squads, totaling twelve warriors in uniform white battle suits, slowly emerged from the teleportation gates.
They were Vitruvian Warriors.
The Vitruvian Squad that emerged from the teleportation gates looked around.
Their indifferent gaze swept over the two colliding Universes.
It swept over the giant Red Skull monster, and over the three ferocious Sentinel robots.
Finally, it swept over the disheveled heroes.
There was no emotion in their eyes, no sympathy, no curiosity, only an indifference towards trivial matters.
"Captain, the situation has changed."
One of the Vitruvian Warriors reported to his Captain.
"The indigenous creatures of this Universe seem to be engaged in a civil war? And the Universecollision has already begun."
The leading Captain frowned slightly, but quickly said in a cold voice:
"No need to bother."
"Our mission is simply to eliminate the cartographer. Do not concern yourselves with these natives' internal conflicts. Find the target, eliminate it, and then leave."
The Vitruvian Squad originally didn't want to meddle.
However, the three Sentinel robots didn't think so.
Their database stored information about all known super-powered individuals on this Earth.
But these twelve beings, whose energy readings were off the charts, completely exceeded their cognitive scope.
[Warning! Unknown high-threat unit detected!]
[Threat Level: Omega Class!]
[Executing highest directive: Priority elimination!]
The three Sentinel robots immediately changed direction, aiming all their weapon systems at the twelve Vitruvian Warriors!
"Oh?"
The Vitruvian Captain noticed their actions and a smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"It seems a few tin cans want to die early."
The next second, the three Sentinels attacked simultaneously!
Beams of miniaturized Pym Particles, energy sufficient to shrink and contain Hulk, shot towards the Vitruvian People.
At the same time, the energy cannons in their chests began to charge, preparing for saturation bombing.
However, the Vitruvian Warriors were completely unconcerned.
"Too slow."
The figure of one of the warriors instantly vanished from his spot.
The next second, he had already appeared in front of one of the Sentinel robots.
"What?!"
In the distant command center, an elderly Steve saw this scene through the monitor and let out an unbelievable cry of surprise.
That Vitruvian Warrior simply gathered all his strength into his right fist, and then, punched out.
Boom!!!
The Sentinel robot, capable of fighting the entire Avengers, was forcefully punched through by that tiny figure, creating a huge hole from front to back, as if it were made of paper!
This scene stunned everyone present; they couldn't believe what they were seeing.
Immediately after, another Vitruvian Warrior rushed towards the second Sentinel at an even faster speed.
He didn't even use his fist; he simply used his body, like a white meteorite, to directly crash into it.
Boom!!!
Under everyone's shocked gaze, the tall Sentinel robot was forcefully split in half down the middle.
The explosion's firelight illuminated the figure of that Vitruvian Warrior like a demon god.
Seeing this, the last third Sentinel immediately tried to ascend and escape.
But the Vitruvian Captain merely glanced at it disdainfully.
The next second, he appeared directly in front of it, and then, threw a punch.
Bang!
An irresistible force struck, and the Sentinel was immediately hit, slammed down from ten thousand meters high, crashing heavily to the ground, turning into a pile of twisted scrap metal.
Three Sentinel robots, which had driven the Avengers and the X-Men to despair, were completely destroyed in less than five seconds.
The giant Red Skull finally reacted from his shock.
He looked at this group of incomprehensibly powerful beings before him and felt a genuine fear for the first time.
He tried to activate the psychic power of Charles within him to control and destroy these enemies.
However, it was already too late; the moment his thought arose...
The Vitruvian Captain's gaze had already locked onto him, and then his figure vanished from his spot again.
Red Skull was greatly alarmed and hurriedly looked behind him.
But he was too slow; he only saw a white figure punching towards him.
That white figure, in terms of size, was so tiny, yet its strength was strangely immense.
That fist, with a speed beyond thought, accurately struck Red Skull's massive head.
The Red Skull, who had integrated Professor X's brain and controlled global super-powered individuals...
And left all the heroes helpless, had his head instantly explode.
His massive body, now headless, collapsed with a crash, turning into a pile of meaningless flesh and blood.
The battle ended just like that, simply and easily.
The Vitruvian Squad floated quietly in mid-air, as if they had merely done a trivial task.
"Alright, the flies have been cleaned up."
"Now..."
The Vitruvian Squad Captain's gaze turned to the Earth slowly pressing down in the sky.
"It's time to deal with the real business."
With that, twelve white figures soared into the sky, transforming into twelve destructive meteors, rushing fearlessly towards that Earth, which represented another Universe.
Leaving only the stunned Avengers and X-Men on the ground.
Soon, a tremendous roar came from the sky; it was the sound of the cartographer on the other Earthbeing completely crushed under the iron fists of the Vitruvian People.
The crimson sky slowly receded, and the New York firmament returned to its normal color.
As if the doomsday-like scene from before was just an illusion.
But the devastated houses below and the slowly dissipating remains of the giant Red Skull.
All reminded them that everything was real.
"So..." Sam Wilson broke the silence.
He said with disbelief in his voice:
"Our crisis has been resolved once again?"
No one answered him; all the heroes stared blankly at the sky.
Their hearts were filled with complex emotions.
There was the relief of surviving a catastrophe, the frustration of their own powerlessness, and the shock of those white-clad warriors.
"That's not the most important thing right now!"
Cyclops suddenly rushed excitedly to the center of the monster's remains.
Everyone was startled, but soon they followed.
They saw that after the monster's massive body completely dissipated, a man wearing a Nazi officer's uniform, with a head like a Red Skull.

Was lying quietly in the ruins, unconscious.
He was the true Red Skull, the mastermind behind all this! The final boss who caused the great war!
"Professor." Pain flashed in Scott's eyes.
He looked at Red Skull's bizarre head and said with a trembling voice:
"Professor's brain is still inside! We might still have a chance to save him!"
He remembered Professor X; because of his loss of control, he had killed the Professor.
He became a sinner, a sinner whose hands could never be truly clean!
"That's right!" Storm Ororo also stepped forward excitedly.
"As long as the brain is still there, with our technology and magic, we can definitely find a way to separate the Professor's consciousness!"
Hope rekindled in the eyes of the X-Men members.
However, Sam immediately stepped forward, blocking their way, his expression serious.
"No."
"What did you say?!"
Scott's face instantly turned cold as he glared at Sam.
"With Steve gone, are you going to start ordering us around now?!"
Everyone knew what that meant; this current Captain America was merely a substitute in everyone's eyes.
If Steve Rogers hadn't lost his super soldier serum fighting a villain and become an old man...
Then Sam would not have had the opportunity to become Captain America.
"This isn't my intention, Scott, these are the rules!" Sam's tone was equally firm.
"Red Skull caused a global super Riot, resulting in tens of thousands of casualties!"
"He is a criminal, a war criminal, and he must face trial and be held at the Avengers Base until we find a way to completely neutralize his threat!"
"We will not hand him over to you!"
Colossus stepped forward, issuing a dangerous warning.
"Charles's brain must be taken back by us, the X-Men!"
"You want to take away a threat capable of disrupting the World?"
Sam also didn't back down, raising his shield.
