224: Chapter 224 What kind of monstrous ability is this?!

"He attempts to lure the true high-dimensional predators of the universe—those terrifying existences known as 'Void Gods'! He wants to sacrifice the lives of billions of ordinary people on Earth to the gods in exchange for his personal ascension and a ticket to becoming a high-dimensional lifeform!"

Boom!

Hearing this truth, Li Murou and Su Xiaoxiao felt as if they had been struck by lightning, their entire bodies turning cold.

Sacrificing all of humanity on Earth?! Just for his own path to godhood?! This was no longer just madness from the Wu Tian; this was the absolute pinnacle of being anti-human!

Black-Robed Shen Ye's projection continued, his tone carrying a hint of entreaty:

"Now, there are only two paths laid out before you."

"First, while the charging has not yet reached 100%, Ye Fei can use the highest authority to completely cut off the energy supply of the Source Stone and shut down the Tower of Heaven! But the price is... all Professionals on Earth will lose their source of power. Including yourselves, everyone's panels and skills will completely dissipate within a few days. Humanity will revert to being defenseless mortals, left to face the ferocious beasts that already remain on Earth!"

"Second, do nothing and watch helplessly as the Wu Tian completes the ritual, and then everyone becomes cosmic dust together upon the descent of the Void Gods."

"There is not much time left for you. Chen Xi... will it be saving the world and becoming a mortal, or embracing destruction... make your choice."

Zzzzt...

Accompanied by a burst of static, Black-Robed Shen Ye's projection completely dissipated.

Silence.

A suffocating silence spread within the Star Sea space.

Losing all power? Reverting to a mortal?

For the Nirvana Battle Team, who had struggled so hard to reach their current positions and mastered power capable of destroying the heavens and the earth, this deprivation was undoubtedly more painful than death. However, if they didn't shut it down, billions of people would die!

"Captain..." Li Murou bit her lip tightly, her eyes reddening. "Are we... really going to become ordinary people?"

Su Xiaoxiao's knuckles turned white as she gripped her staff, but she took a deep breath, her gaze becoming firm. "If it's for the sake of all humanity... I am willing to give up this power."

Ye Fei took a step forward, preparing to place her hand on the console. "This is what I owe this world. I will be the one to shut it down."

"Wait."

Just as Ye Fei was about to touch the console, Chen Xi's weak yet extremely domineering voice suddenly echoed through the space.

He slowly stood up straight and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. His crimson-gold eyes stared fixedly at the giant Source Stone, and the corner of his mouth curled into an extremely arrogant, even insane, arc.

"A multiple-choice question with only two options?"

"Black-Robed Shen Ye, you've underestimated me, Chen Xi, far too much."

Chen Xi strode toward the Source Stone, his voice carrying a wildness that looked down upon heaven and earth:

"You want me to give up my power and be a lamb for the slaughter? Keep dreaming!"

"You want me to watch Earth be devoured by alien monsters? Also dreaming!"

"Since the rules given by this world are black and white, then today... I will personally smash these bullshit rules and carve out a third path!!!"

"Captain, what are you doing?!" The three women looked at Chen Xi in shock.

"What am I doing?"

Chen Xi abruptly raised both hands, fingers spread wide. A power of creation, more terrifying than when he summoned the xingtian mecha—one that had even touched the laws of the primordial Great Dao—erupted without reservation from his riddled body!

"I am a Miracle Card Maker! Everything in this world, as long as there is energy and rules, is nothing but material for card making in my eyes!"

Chen Xi's eyes stared fixedly at the giant core of the Tower of Heaven, letting out a roar that shook the soul:

"Since shutting you down means losing power, and opening you lures disaster..."

"Then I shall take this Source Stone, this entire Tower of Heaven... and seal you alive into a card for me!!!"

Crazy!

This was absolute madness!

Forcibly turning a hundred-story alien ruin containing high-dimensional energy—the source of power for all Professionals in the world—into a single card?! This was practically challenging the authority of creation with a mortal body!

"Miracle Creation! Open for me!!!"

"Miracle: Sublimation! Full power—Overload!!!"

Boom—!!!

As soon as Chen Xi's words fell, the entire hundredth-floor space erupted with an unprecedentedly brilliant golden light! This golden light transformed into countless chains, tightly entangling the giant Source Stone like an inescapable net!

Crack crack crack crack—

The Source Stone seemed to sense a fatal threat and began to struggle and resist frantically. Violent high-dimensional radiation carved countless deep wounds into Chen Xi's body, instantly staining him red with blood.

"Chen Xi!! Stop right now!! That is my divine throne!!!"

Just then, accompanied by a desperate and tyrannical roar, the Wu Tian's blood-soaked figure, looking like an evil ghost, finally smashed through the doors of the hundredth floor and charged in!

When he saw that Chen Xi was actually trying to 'card-ify' the divine artifact he had dreamed of, he went completely insane!

"Demigod Domain: Deprivation! Die!!!"

The Wu Tian exhausted his last bits of demigod power, transforming into a pitch-black pillar of death aimed straight for the center of Chen Xi's back!

"Captain, watch out!!" Su Xiaoxiao and the other two cried out, trying desperately to block it, but they were pinned to the ground by the demigod's pressure, unable to move.

However, facing the Wu Tian's killing blow.

Chen Xi didn't dodge; instead, he turned his head and gave the Wu Tian a wildly mocking laugh:

"Old dog, you've come at just the right time!"

"I was just worried that this card's energy was still a bit lacking. Since you insist on delivering yourself to my door..."

"Then use this demigod body of yours to be the sacrifice for my Mythical Card!!!"

"Sovereign Judgment: Absolute Deprivation! Fusion!!!"

Chen Xi's right hand suddenly clawed backward, and a terrifying black hole of rules that transcended planes generated in his palm.

The Wu Tian's demigod-level destructive strike was sucked into the black hole like noodles the moment it made contact! Not only that, but the terrifying suction directly locked onto the Wu Tian himself!

"No!! This is impossible!! What kind of monster ability is this!! Let go of me!! Argh!!!"

Amidst the Wu Tian's shrill and utterly desperate screams.

His century-old demigod body and the power of order and rules within him were forcibly shredded by Chen Xi's card-making vortex, turning into the purest energy nourishment and being sucked into the Source Stone that was currently being card-ified!

An Lv.99 demigod fell just like that, becoming a stepping stone for card making!

"Condense... for me!!!"
