119: Chapter 119 Erasing everything in Japan, is the disaster over?

"Stay... everyone stay and play together..."

"Giggle... Hee hee hee... Mm-hmm..."

This voice was soft and sweet, like the whisper of a gentle lover in one's ear.

But everyone present felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.

Because every single one of those pink petals dancing in the sky emitted an eerie aura that seemed capable of freezing the Soul.

"Idiot!! What are you doing?!"

At this moment, White Rose snapped her head around, her arrogant and cold face twisted to the extreme.

She barked at the priest's shadow, her eyes filled with shock and fury.

No one expected that at this critical juncture, the priest's shadow would make such a move, which was no different from suicide!

And it wasn't just suicide.

He was going to drag everyone down with him!

"No... it wasn't my Lord..."

Petrovsky's face was deathly pale, his tall frame trembling uncontrollably.

He stared fixedly at the priest's shadow, his voice carrying an unbelievable terror.

"My Lord's medium... has been controlled!!"

What?!

Hearing these words, everyone's heart sank abruptly.

That priest's shadow was the medium Projection of the [taboo of sin], an S-rank high-level existence!

Yet he had been silently controlled!!?

While everyone was trembling in shock, the priest's shadow began to shake violently, as if engaged in a tragic struggle against some kind of Rule.

The miniature Black Church in his hand suddenly broke out in a dense web of cracks!

Crack! Crack!

The outer walls of the Black Church turned into fragments and peeled away, revealing the churning Chaos black mist within.

And deep within that black mist, there seemed to be a pair of malicious eyes Peeping at everyone present.

At the same time.

Far away in the Rebirth Temple, Lin Chuan's panel deep within his consciousness suddenly flashed a series of information prompts:

[Warning! Extremely dangerous taboo revival detected!]

[Name: Izanami (Yin Shadow)]

[Status: Demigod! Ruler of the Yin-Yang Domain of the Chaos Void Realm!]

[Sequence Number: 1!]

[State: Awakening / Extremely Unstable]

[Description: An ancient deity who once dominated the entire territory of Neon Country, wielding the dual authorities of 'Life and Death' and 'Creation and Destruction'. Once her Yang side also awakens and the two undergo Fusion, she will ascend to become an ultimate existence infinitely close to a 'Fallen God'!]

Demigod?!

Sequence 1?!

Looking at this string of shocking information, even Lin Chuan, who had just promoted to SS-rank, couldn't help but feel a surge of heart-pounding dread.

A top-ten sequence!

This was the first time Lin Chuan had encountered such a sequence status!!

"Cough, cough..."

Just as Lin Chuan fell into deep thought.

An old, raspy sigh that seemed to have traveled through countless space-times abruptly rang out in his consciousness.

"Young man..."

"That fan... must not be broken."

This voice?!

Lin Chuan's heart tightened.

The voice was exactly that of the mysterious old woman he had seen in Neon Country!

The existence who called herself the "The Gatekeeper"!!

"Elder?"

Lin Chuan tried to respond to the old woman in his consciousness.

Soon, the old woman's voice rang out again:

"Sigh..."

Her voice was filled with exhaustion and helplessness.

"Izanami... she is a twisted existence in the Chaos Void Realm who rules over a Demigod Domain."

"The Neon Islands you see, and even this sea area... are actually a 'pseudo-divine kingdom' she once constructed out of the Void Realm using supreme Rules."

"This place... is a gateway."

"A gateway leading to the depths of the Chaos Void Realm, connecting countless terrifying taboo domains!"

Although the old woman's voice was weak, every word exploded in Lin Chuan's mind like a thunderclap.

"Back then, Neon Country had millions of Izanami's subordinates—those so-called 'Eight Million Gods' ignorantly worshiped by the Mortals of Neon Country... they were all chaotic taboos kept by her!!!"

"I have guarded this place for endless ages just to prevent that door from being opened and to stop those things from pouring in."

"That folding fan... was a Rule sealing object I left behind with all my strength when I was still alive."

"It was already on the verge of collapsing..."

"And now it has been forcibly broken by external force..."

At this point, the old woman's voice paused, carrying a deep sense of powerlessness.

"All the 'gates' on the Neon Islands... are about to swing wide open."

"Although the barriers of the real world still exist and those SSS-rank old monsters can't cross over for now..."

"But taboos and anomalies below SSS-rank... will pour into this world like a tide."

"This realm... will be turned into purgatory."

After hearing this, Lin Chuan's heart sank to the bottom.

Although he had already promoted to SS-rank, in the face of such a massive influx of taboos, his power... still seemed insignificant.

If it was truly as the old woman said.

It probably wouldn't be long before the Dongsheng Continent, and even the entire world... would truly be finished.

"Is there... really no way?"

Lin Chuan asked in a heavy voice.

"There is."

The old woman's voice suddenly became resolute.

"But this... requires paying a price."

"And it can only be a temporary stop."

"Because even without Neon Country... there are still many other 'gates' in this world being quietly opened."

"What is the way?"

"Obliteration."

The old woman spat out two cold words.

"Completely erase the entire Neon Islands!"

"Not just physical destruction."

"But to erase all traces of its existence in space-time—past, present, and future!"

"Let this land, along with those gates, return to nothingness together!!"

Erasing a country's space-time traces?

Such a method was simply unheard of!

Let alone with the Rule Power Lin Chuan currently controlled, he felt that even an SSS-rank taboo Dominator, or even a Dominator... probably couldn't do it!

"With your current power... you can't do it yet."

The old woman seemed to see through Lin Chuan's thoughts.

"But... I can help you."

"Although I am already at the end of my life, this last bit of residual Rule Power can still burn one last time."

"At the same time, I hope to use your hand... to send me on this final journey."

The moment the old woman's voice fell.

A vicissitude-filled, ancient, yet incredibly pure Rule Power flowed into Lin Chuan's body through that mysterious connection.

In an instant, Lin Chuan's evil buddha golden body, sitting atop the Lotus Pedestal, suddenly blazed with Chaos black light, as if to plunge the entire world into eternal polar night... Boom!!!

An unprecedentedly terrifying Rule fluctuation began to spread wildly outwards with Lin Chuan as the center.

Neon Country, Capital City.

Before the sacrificial altar.

The pink petals filling the sky fell like a rainstorm, and each one was like a sharp blade, cutting the surrounding space into fragments.

The controlled priest's shadow had already been swallowed by the petals at this moment, completely dissipating and becoming part of the countless petals.

"It's over... it's all over..."

Petrovsky knelt on the ground in despair.

White Rose's hand holding her long blade was trembling violently; she wanted to resist, but found she didn't even have the strength to lift her arm.

Under that demigod-level pressure, these so-called S-rank experts were like ants in a storm, completely powerless to resist.

Just as everyone thought they were doomed.

"A... mi... ta... bha."

A low, grand Buddha chant, carrying endless compassion and slaughter, suddenly rang in everyone's ears.

Immediately following that.

The sky above, shrouded in pink mist, split open.

A massive, boundless black Buddha palm that blotted out the sun slowly emerged from the crack.

Upon that Buddha palm circulated countless golden sanskrit characters, and every palm line seemed like a flowing river of stars.

And in the center of that palm.

A hunched phantom of an old woman sat quietly, a smile of liberation on her face.

"That is..."

Zhou Kai looked up at the black Buddha palm descending from the sky, his eyes full of fanaticism and shock.

"The True Buddha... has descended!!"

Boom!!!

The Buddha palm fell.

There was no earth-shattering explosion.

Only an eerie silence.

The pink petals filling the sky instantly melted under that Buddha palm, like early snow meeting a blazing sun.

Furthermore, that ancient sacrificial altar and the entire Capital City began to silently disintegrate under this single palm strike.

It wasn't shattering.

It was... disappearing.

Like being erased from a drawing by an eraser.

This disappearance was spreading toward the entire Neon Islands at an alarming speed.

Mountains, rivers, cities, ruins... everything was turning into nothingness.

Even everyone's memories began to grow blurred.

They seemed to forget why they were here, forget the existence named "Neon Country."

"Go!"

Lin Chuan's voice suddenly rang in the minds of Zhou Kai and the others.

A gentle force enveloped them, instantly sending them away from this space-time that was about to return to zero.

When they regained their senses again.

They were already standing atop a Rule Buddha Hand ten thousand meters up in the air.

And on the sea surface below.

In the position where the Neon Islands should have been.

At this moment... only a vast, boundless ocean remained.

The waves surged, sea and sky meeting in one color.

Where was there even a hint of land left?

It was as if... that country had never existed.

Only a massive, pitch-black vortex slowly rotated on the sea surface, emitting a heart-palpitating aura of dead silence.

"Is it over?"

White Rose looked at the empty sea surface below, her eyes full of confusion.

"No."

Zhou Kai tightly gripped the prophecy pen in his hand, looking at that pitch-black vortex, his voice low.

"This is only... the beginning."

...Land of Rebirth on the Other Shore.

In the dark and eerie main hall of the Buddhist temple.

With a thought, Lin Chuan withdrew the Rule Buddha Hand and simultaneously dropped Zhou Kai and the others at the border of the Yanlong Empire!

The Rule Power from the old woman inside his body had completely dissipated.

Although this strike relied on the burst of the old woman's residual power, his own consumption was not small either... but fortunately, everything of Neon Country... had temporarily come to a close!!

And those most dangerous 'gates' had been temporarily closed.

The disaster seemed to have been temporarily contained...
