206: Section 206

No matter how many times one grew accustomed to it, it was still a violent shock that would strike awe and shake one's worldview!

Even as a Zongwang Player, you should at least be reasonable, right?

Who grows like this!

When Su Ming first stepped onto the Way of Star Casting, a single hammer strike toward the past timeline to interfere with the limits of causality was only measured in minutes.

But what about now?

It is measured in hours!

That's not called growth; that's called ascension!

However...

From Su Ming's own perspective, this was considered normal.

It was a very simple logic.

The stars themselves inherently carry the concept of chronology!

This was an inevitability determined by a combination of objective astronomical Order and the consensus of the human heart!

Objectively, the movement of celestial bodies is itself a macroscopic time scale.

Conversely, from the perspective of civilization, every civilization's perception of time is established through observing the changes of the stars without exception!

When the two overlap, heaven and man align.

Su Ming's Way of Star Casting naturally touched upon the domain of chronology!

Coupled with the miraculous effect of the heavenly dimension giant hammer in restructuring Order...

This led to the occurrence of Su Ming elbow-striking the normal chronology.

Of course.

This was also inseparable from Su Ming pouring in a massive amount of experience at that time to upgrade his Star-Forging Lord class to level 20.

However.

The act of reversing chronology still carried immense risk!

Without upgrading to the legendary threshold, causing one's own destiny weight to surge drastically...

And without the sub-multiversal level Circle of Reason to share the backlash...

A single wave of rule backlash from the universe itself would have caused Su Ming to dissolve into the Dao on the spot; how could he dare to talk about reversing cause and effect?

Returning to the present perspective.

Seeing the Angel Legion's efficient advance, moving like a natural disaster and about to occupy more than half of the hell sectors.

Su Ming gradually focused his mind, summoning every ounce of his energy.

As the subsequent modifications to the Hells Nest followed closely behind, a certain threshold of rule endurance was finally reached!

"It's coming!"

What was coming?

Hexi and Kaisha were both momentarily stunned.

The next instant.

Su Ming suddenly raised the heavenly dimension giant hammer without any warning.

In that moment.

The remaining Hell Dimensions all came to a standstill!

That was a stagnation at the level of rules, the prelude before the 'General Trend' changed course!

At the very moment the rule fluctuations tugged at the dimensional origin, thereby awakening the many sleeping Demon Lords!

The heavenly dimension giant hammer crashed down!

That strike.

Was like a world-opening titan, a creation hammer carrying the Order of the New World as it smashed down!

Hexi's mouth hung slightly open, speechless with shock!

Kaisha's eyes twitched, and her body trembled slightly!

At the same time, in the void outside all Hell Dimensions, a titan dharma idol holding a giant hammer aloft and smashing it down fiercely manifested out of thin air!

Boom!—

The next instant.

The stagnant rules and Order set sail once more.

But they were surging forward according to the version blueprint depicted by Su Ming!

In just a flash, the Hell Dimensions throughout the entire horror movie dungeon world were the first to enter an irreversible state of version update!

As visitors from outside the domain, the angels were naturally unaffected.

The native demons of hell, however, were unfortunate.

Those with slightly weaker intelligence were struck by a heavenly blade; as their origins were returned to the Hell Dimensions, their flesh and blood essence scattered across the boundless hell!

In this single instant, the number of demons belonging to hell plummeted by more than eighty percent!

This sudden change left the newly awakened Demon Lords completely bewildered.

Who am I?

Where am I?

What am I supposed to do?

Waking up from this sleep, where the hell has Ge Men been taken?

Is this still fucking hell?

However.

The general trend of the version update had only just begun.

With a thunderous boom!

The heavenly dimension giant hammer smashed down again.

Pushing the update trend into an even faster and more violent wild update!

The second wave of rule impact followed immediately.

What was impacted was nothing else.

But the Styx itself!

The Demon Lords, who hadn't even regained their senses, watched with slack jaws and helplessness as the Styx within their own territories abruptly changed course!

An illusory heavenly river manifested out of thin air; the soul husks that had been suppressed by the Styx for eternity and subjected to endless torment rose into the infinite heights along with that illusory river, turning into streaks of light with expressions of liberation and completely disappearing from hell's native system!

Some Demon Lords roared in impotent rage, attempting to stop it.

Unfortunately.

Such resistance was not only useless, but most of the unlucky ones were struck by the manifestation of the heavenly river and exploded into clouds of blood mist on the spot!

Nothing else mattered.

Under the version update.

The many lords lost their original status.

They had truly been demoted from 'He' to 'it'!

And how could such 'its' withstand the crushing weight of the version update's general trend?

Chapter 234: Heavenly Punishment Hangs High! Self-Rescue by Reversing Cause and Effect

As the illusory heavenly river ascended and departed with trillions of soul husks, star rivers lit up one by one across the dark, velvet-like canopy above the various Hell Dimensions.

That was the projection of the Circle of Reason.

Through this.

Even if the Memetic Curses took the opportunity to settle one by one due to the rule fluctuations...

With the starlight positioning, the angel army could still arrive via cross-dimensional teleportation, spreading the flames of war to every unpurged hell sector.

At the same time.

The change in celestial phenomena also signaled...

That all Hell Dimensions not yet touched by the flames of war were now also preliminarily incorporated under Su Ming's command and branded with Su Ming's mark!

On the 72 dimensional battlefields, the brilliant radiance blessed upon the angels bloomed with infinite starlight once more.

Stirring battle cries rose one after another.

The angel ladies, shouting 'Eternal Heavenly Reason,' were like they had been injected with chicken blood, wielding their flame swords and spreading their Angel Wings to slaughter in all directions with the added Anti-Memetic shielding effect.

Seeing this.

Su Ming smiled briefly and then swung the heavenly dimension giant hammer once more.

Boom!—

With this heavy strike.

The rules shook violently!

The ear-piercing sound of a mirror shattering echoed through the universe!

That was the final wail of the will of hell!

Almost at the same moment, Su Ming's divine body exploded, bursting into a sky full of blood mist!

"Su Ming!!!" *2

Kaisha and Hexi's expressions changed drastically.

Before they could even figure out what had happened, they saw the Circle of Reason shining brilliantly with starlight, and the waters of the Nine Heavens Long River surging up into the Star Nest.

Starlight coalesced, and the divine body was reconstructed.

In the blink of an eye, Su Ming stepped out from the crest of a wave stirred by the heavenly river water.

With that leisurely and comfortable posture, he didn't look at all like someone who had just died once!

"Don't worry, I'm fine..." Su Ming approached the two queens with a smile. Seeing that they were still filled with lingering fear, he pulled them into his embrace to offer some comfort.

Kaisha and Hexi were, after all, Angel Queens; after a brief moment of relaxation, they both regained their rationality.

Hexi tilted her pretty face up and asked with a bit of lingering fear:

"What happened just now? Why did you suddenly explode when everything was going fine?"

Su Ming did not hide anything:

"It's normal. That was, after all, the hell of a single universe... just before it met its end, that thing gave me a nasty blow!"

"Let's put it this way: those three hammer strikes just now were each aimed at [Hell]!"

"Mainly because the Hell Dimensions happened to be at the time of a version update, the concept of hell was passively manifested and began to interact with the material universe again."

"The opportunity was rare, so I took the chance to forcibly embed the Order of the Hells Nest into the blueprint of the version update."

"It's fine now. From now on, the idealistic rules of this universe will become active again, and new Hell Dimensions will be derived one by one."

"Without needing my subjective interference, every Hell Dimension born from now on will follow my will and evolve into the shape of the Hells Nest."

Hiss!—

As expected of you, you really have a knack for courting death!

Of course.

This kind of opportunistic behavior...

...was an act of defying heaven by replacing the Heavenly Dao with one's own Dao. It would be unreasonable if this universe didn't give Su Ming an elbow strike!

Looking at it this way...
