Chapter 426

He didn’t give it too much thought and kept going, crushing layers of emptiness as he made his way toward that wisp. He moved extremely quickly, so the barriers of space were not able block his way at all. After going through layers and layers, he finally caught up with that wisp. He was shocked by what he was seeing and didn’t know what to say at first.

“This… this…” In front of him, a gigantic planet was moving at high speed. This planet was not one that was naturally formed, since there were intelligent beings covering its entire surface. But what surprised Su Jin the most was the fact that this planet had spatial abilities. This was the sort of planet that Geppetto had talked about. A planet that possessed spatial ability ever since it existed.

And the moment Su Jin appeared, the planet seemed to have detected him too. Rune creatures surged out of the planet like water and charged at Su Jin.

Su Jin didn’t want to get caught up with these creatures, so he moved at high speed toward the planet. The rune creatures that were charging at him were instantly reduced to ashes once they came close to him. The creatures were as weak as ordinary lifeforms when faced with his maniacal power.

Meanwhile, a frightening glint appeared in the eyes of two people on the planet. They were the lucky survivors of the first cycle, gods from the first cycle – Carl and Phyge.

“This power coming toward us is incredibly formidable and the rune creatures are no match. Who could it be? Could the will of the universe have found us?” Carl started feeling uneasy. Su Jin’s power was extremely destructive, but it was also beyond anything that could exist within the boundaries of the Handbook. It was even capable of killing the rune creatures without much effort. This immediately made them think that the intruder could be the will of the universe.

“We have to stop him from getting here. The Beginning isn’t mature yet, so if the will of the universe discovers us, all our efforts will go down the drain!” yelled Phyge as he leaped up and shot out of the planet to meet with the unstoppable Su Jin.

The gods of the first cycle were very powerful beings. Arutus, the one who had burned himself up, could challenge the will of the universe if he went all out. Phyge was not at Arutus’ level, but he was definitely not that much weaker.

Boom! Su Jin was hit by Phyge’s fist, and his entire body tore into four or five pieces and each chunk went in a different direction. His god-like body was as weak as tofu to Phyge’s iron fist. That was unbelievable.

If his body had merely been broken apart, Su Jin wouldn’t have been that surprised. What really shocked him was the fact that his body was having trouble putting itself back together again. He was having great difficulty connecting his flesh, and sometimes, a wound that just healed would burst open again.

“This sort of power is on the verge of exceeding the Handbook’s, isn’t it?!” Su Jin was really astonished. Phyge’s power still carried the mark of the Handbook, but it seemed like it could surpass the Handbook soon.

“There’s no need for us to fight, I am not here with ill intentions!” yelled Su Jin loudly. He didn’t want to be engaged in a fight for no reason. He had come solely because he was curious about where these rune creatures had come from.

But Phyge couldn’t understand what Su Jin was saying, and once he had gone into fighting mode, it was hard for him to stop. He stretched his hands out and a bright beam of light shot toward Su Jin.

“Damn it!” muttered Su Jin as a colorful glow rose around him to form a shield that protected him from the bright beam of light. That beam could cause immense levels of damage, and if he had been hit by it, he… might have died.

That’s right, he could have died. That was Su Jin’s first conclusion. His opponent was terrifyingly powerful and was capable of killing a top tier god.

And actually, Su Jin was able to display fighting abilities that were greater than a top tier god’s right now, so his opponent was someone who was way above a top tier god.

“Where in the world could such a formidable person come from? Or could it be…” Su Jin’s heart nearly stopped beating. Could his opponent be the will of the universe? Or some fighter created by the will of the universe? That seemed to be the only way to explain why his opponent was this petrifying.

Now that both sides had decided that the other party was the will of the universe, they decided to go all out in their attack. Phyge’s strength had gone through years of refining, and his techniques were even more well-developed, so he was usually in a better place compared to Su Jin. But Su Jin’s maniacal power was outside of the Handbook and was even more aggressive, so Phyge did not dare to push Su Jin too hard or get too near. The battle was at a stalemate for quite a long time.

“This is pretty terrible! I told myself that I would defeat the will of the universe, but now… I can’t even deal with a minion he’s created?” Su Jin’s eyes were seeing red, and his maniacal power was glowing colorfully, as though there was a flickering rainbow in space.

Phyge’s attacks, on the other hand, were bright beams of light. Any planet that those beams hit would shatter in an instant. Nothing could hold up against those fists of his.

Just then, a voice came from the primordial star, “That’s enough, Phyge. Get back here quickly, or else the Handbook will find you!”

Phyge really wanted to continue the fight, but he had to retreat now. He had dashed out because the Handbook had just completed a scan of the void and he had to return before the next scan started. Otherwise, if the Handbook found them, it would definitely destroy them.

Su Jin couldn’t understand what Carl just said, but he sent his psychokinesis out and realized that the other party wasn’t someone from the Handbook at all. These people were like him. They were insurgents too.

That instantly brightened him up. If he could join forces with such mighty fighters, then his chances of winning the final battle would increase greatly. With that in mind, he immediately made a rush for the primordial star.

Phyge instantly flew into a rage after he returned to the planet and started yelling angrily. Su Jin used his psychokinesis to analyze the yelling, and he realized that Phyge was yelling at him to go away from the planet.

“I don’t have any ill intentions! Could we sit down and have a chat?” Su Jin used his psychokinesis to send a simple message. Confusion slowly spread across Phyge’s face and a moment later, he seemed to have received an instruction from elsewhere as he nodded at Su Jin and motioned to Su Jin to follow him.

As Su Jin walked behind Phyge, he couldn’t help but gasp inwardly at this planet. The entire planet had been honed into one invincible body, so unless you managed to make the entire planet explode all at once, it was impossible to damage any part of it. And the spatial abilities it contained was exactly what he had been hoping to find.

Phyge was quite impressed with Su Jin, who was just following behind him without asking any questions. Phyge had no idea where in the world Su Jin had come from, and based on the fight earlier, he was certain that Su Jin wasn’t the will of the universe in human form either. If that was the case, why did this person have a power that didn’t belong to the Handbook?

Also, this fellow didn’t seem to be afraid that there was some trap lying in wait for him. Su Jin just followed behind him without even looking wary.

It didn’t take long for them to reach Carl. Carl took one look at Su Jin, then placed a hand over his own chest and said, “Welcome, insurgent!”

“Insurgent?!” Phyge was surprised at first, then he slapped his forehead as he realized how dumb he was. Anyone who wasn’t the will of the universe in disguise but also had powers outside of the Handbook had to be an insurgent But he had never heard of any insurgent who could escape being hunted down by the Handbook. How did this guy do it?

Su Jin did the same gesture as Carl and returned the greeting. Then he asked, “Could I ask… who are you?”

“Who are we? We are the gods of the first cycle, the sad remnants of the very first universe,” said Carl with a bitter smile. But the words “gods of the first cycle” really shocked Su Jin.

He couldn’t imagine how someone so ancient could have gone through the birth and death of so many cycles and survived until now.

Carl seemed to know what Su Jin was thinking. He smiled and shook his head sadly as he said, “We’ve managed by being fearful tortoises who constantly hide in their shell. Almost all of our companions are dead, and the two of us are the last ones. The gods of the first cycle… are about to become history!”
