Gao Wu: You have science, and I have magic!

Fine cracks began to appear on the cocoon shell, and an indescribable pressure could be felt even across the barrier of time and space.

"Faster...faster..."

He muttered to himself, but it was unclear whether he was urging the fleet or praying that the thing would break out of its cocoon later.

Inside the cocoon, time flows in another way.

The three faces of Brahma floated in the silver-blue slurry - the face of the past was like a dead tree, the face of the present had glaring eyes, and the face of the future maintained a mysterious smile.

His body has basically taken shape - the humanoid torso is covered with moon-white scales, the full text of the Vedas grows naturally on the four pairs of translucent insect wings, and the tail segment extending from the spine flashes with ripples of time.

“Not enough…”

Three faces spoke at the same time, their voices rippling through time and space: "We need more... time..."

He suddenly looked up. Although he was in the cocoon, he seemed to be able to directly see the great army of the void outside the heavens, especially the red figure sitting on the throne of the void.

"Emperor Fierce..."

The smile on the face of the future widened, and the corners of his mouth almost split to his ears: "You came... just in time..."

The cocoon suddenly shrank violently, and then expanded suddenly.

The cracks on the cocoon shell spread rapidly, and silver-blue light burst out from the cracks. All the creatures in Tianzhu that had not yet melted stiffened at the same time, and their eyes all turned pure silver-white.

In the cracks between time and space, some kind of existence that has never awakened since ancient times is opening its eyes.

The Fierce Emperor suddenly crushed the armrests of the Void Throne.

He stood up, his scarlet cloak fluttered without wind, and the fire of the end formed a roaring tornado around him.

"Emperor?"

The attendant stepped back in horror.

“Attack early.”

Liedi's voice was filled with a rare solemnity: "That bug... is about to wake up."

Just as he finished speaking, the observation water mirror suddenly exploded.

In the last image displayed, the cocoon had completely split open, and a figure with four pairs of insect wings on its back was slowly stretching its body. Around it, the space was twisting and peeling like an aging film.

The Fierce Emperor laughed wildly, and pale flames shot up into the sky: "Good! Very good! This emperor has not encountered a decent opponent in three thousand years!"

He took a step forward and appeared directly in front of the fleet. The fire of the end condensed into a spear in his palm, and even the vacuum began to burn wherever the spear tip passed.

"Belongs to the Taixu Divine Dynasty!"

The voice of the Emperor Lie resounded throughout the sea of ​​stars: "Follow me—crush them!"

Following this order, the last barrier of time and space shattered. The burning fleet smashed into the atmosphere of the Blue Star like a meteor shower, and waiting for them below was Brahma, who had just been resurrected and was surrounded by turbulent time.

The two peerless masters stared at each other from a distance of thousands of miles, and their gazes collided in the void, creating sparks that tore apart dimensions.

On the land of Tianzhu, the last survivors looked up at the sky and saw the red-white and silver-blue lights fighting above the clouds. That was the last scene they saw in their lives.

Because in the next second, the real war between gods began.

The moment the cocoon exploded, time seemed to stand still.

The silver-blue slurry poured down like a galaxy, but solidified into millions of suspended water droplets in mid-air.

Different fragments of time are reflected in each drop of water - the ancient Indian kingdom of the past, the tragic blood sacrifices of the present, and the countless possible outcomes of the future.

Brahma's divine body slowly rose from the cocoon.

His form is beyond the scope of mortal understanding.

The human-shaped torso is covered with flowing moon-white scales, and the four pairs of translucent insect wings block out the sun when fully spread. The naturally grown Sanskrit words of the Vedas on the wing membranes flicker with the breathing.

The colorful moth down on the neck moved without wind, and the scattered scales turned into miniature time insects in the air.

The most terrifying things were the three faces - the face of the past was as silent as a dead tree, the face of the present had a furious look, and the face of the future maintained a strange smile. It had no eyes, only a crack running across the entire face.

"time……"

Three mouths opened and closed at the same time, and the sound was not transmitted through the air, but sounded directly in the minds of all living beings within a thousand miles.

Millions of people in India who had not yet melted into submission knelt on the ground at the same time. Their eyes all turned silver-white and they began to recite the Vedas unconsciously.

Brahma raised his golden chitin-covered gauntlet and snapped his fingers lightly.

slap~
The Shiva Temple in the center of Rajgir suddenly began to grow backwards.

Fallen pillars were re-erected, broken statues were restored to their original state, and even melted monks reappeared like a reverse film.

But when the flow of time returns to normal, everything immediately disintegrates into smaller particles.

"finally……"

The Face of the Future's smile widened. "I have regained... full authority over time."

He suddenly looked up, and all the Sanskrit words on the insect's wings lit up.

Four pairs of wings vibrated at the same time, making a buzzing sound that made the space tremble.

"coming."

A crack was torn across the sky from east to west.

First, a red light oozes out like blood, followed by the deafening sound of war drums.

When the first Burning Sky Warhorse crushed the clouds, the entire sky began to burn.

The vanguard of the Taixu Divine Dynasty has arrived.

The burning cavalry fell like a meteor shower, leaving behind everlasting fire wherever their hooves passed.

The leading general, Luohou, raised his sword high, and wherever the sword pointed, a city with a population of one million was instantly vaporized.

“Ants!”

His voice was amplified by magic, resounding through the heavens and the earth, with unquestionable absoluteness and tyranny: "You lowly people in the lower realm, why don't you kneel down and welcome the emperor quickly..."

Before he could finish his words, Luohou suddenly discovered that the edge of his sword was rusting.

No, it's not rust - it's the metal corroding over millions of years at a rate visible to the naked eye.

He looked at his arms in horror and found that the skin was rapidly aging, drying up, and eventually turning to dust.

“The Worm of Time.”

Brahma's voice rang in his mind: "Savor the taste of time."

Luo Hou didn't even have time to scream before he turned into a skeleton wearing armored stone, and then even his bones turned to ash. The 30,000 Burning Heaven Iron Cavalry behind him also couldn't escape the bad luck, and experienced the whole process from prime to decay in a few breaths.

But the crack in the sky is still widening.

Boom~
A pale pillar of fire pierced through the sky and earth, and wherever it passed, even space itself was burned into a pitch-black void.

A figure slowly descended from the pillar of fire - the Fierce Emperor with red armor, flaming white hair, and the fire of the end dancing in his eyes finally arrived.

"insect."

Emperor Lie sneered: "Do you think that just killing a few soldiers will...?"

Brahma didn't let him finish. The corners of the Future Face's mouth suddenly tore to the roots of his ears, and a scream beyond the range of human hearing was emitted.

squeak~
Space and time began to develop spider-web-like cracks like glass.

The pale flames around the Fierce Emperor shook violently, and the sound wave tore a gap in it. The silver-blue Time Insect Swarm took the opportunity to rush in and began to devour the Fire of the End.

"interesting."

The Emperor Lie did not get angry but laughed, and clasped his hands together: "Let's see who will eat who - Nine Turns Burning Star Art!"

Boom~
Nine pale suns erupted from his body, and in each of them sat a miniature version of the Fierce Emperor, with an expression of unattainable majesty, as if he were the blazing sun being worshipped by all the stars.

The swarm of time insects was instantly evaporated by the high temperature, and even the nearby space-time cracks were burned and healed.

The two peerless masters stared at each other from a distance, and lightning that could tear apart dimensions burst out where their eyes met.

Brahma Emperor took the lead.

The face of the past suddenly opened its empty eyes and formed the "Nirvana Samadhi" seal with its hands.

The space and time within a kilometer radius instantly solidified into a huge piece of amber, even light was frozen in it. In this area, all attacks, defenses, and even thoughts were forced to regress to a "not happening" state.

The Fierce Emperor found that the power of his fist had inexplicably dissipated, and even the Fire of the End was retreating back into his body.

But he was not in a hurry. The third phantom among the nine scorching suns suddenly opened his eyes.

"break."

It was just one simple word, but it contained the supreme law of negating existence. Fine cracks appeared on Brahma's space-time amber, and eventually it exploded into spots of light all over the sky.

"It's my turn now."

The Fierce Emperor grinned fiercely. The shadow in the seventh sun stood up and raised a pale fireball with both hands, which was constantly collapsing. "Try this move - Burning Stars and Destroying the World!"

The moment the fireball left his hand, the space was distorted like a piece of paper crumpled by an invisible hand.

Wherever it passes, matter directly skips the combustion process and turns into elementary particles. Even the flow of time is distorted by the high temperature.

Brahma's present face was wide open with anger, and his four pairs of insect wings vibrated rapidly, weaving layers of space-time folds in front of him.

But when the fireball touched the first layer of defense, something unexpected happened - the fireball suddenly split into millions of small fireballs, each attacking along a different timeline.

Boom~Boom~Boom~
Amid the continuous explosions, half of Brahma's body was blown into a bloody mess.

The silver-blue divine blood spilled onto the ground, and every drop of it corroded a bottomless hole in the ground.

"Do you think I don't understand the laws of time?"

Emperor Lie laughed, "This move, 'Eternal Burning Flow' is specially designed to deal with those of you who play with time..."

His words stopped abruptly.

Because Brahma Emperor, who should have been seriously injured, suddenly appeared behind him, and his intact insect wings slashed down like a heavenly sword.

puff~
The right arm of the Emperor was broken at the shoulder.

But there was no blood on the wound, only pale flames twisting wildly. Even more terrifying was that the broken arm automatically flew back to its original position before it hit the ground, and it was restored to its original position after being licked by the flames.

"it's useless."

The Fierce Emperor turned around and grabbed the insect wings of the Brahma Emperor: "This emperor has already imprinted his own existence in the fire of the end. As long as this flame of burning the universe does not go out..."

Brahma's three faces simultaneously revealed strange smiles: "Really?"

The Face of the Future suddenly split open in the middle, revealing the densely packed Time Worms inside.

These silver-blue bugs instantly crawled all over Emperor Lie's body and began to frantically devour the source of fire in his body.

"what!"

The Emperor finally let out a painful roar: "How dare you...!"

Nine blazing suns exploded in his body at the same time, and the terrifying energy fluctuations razed everything within a hundred miles to the ground.

When the smoke and dust cleared, the two strong men each retreated a thousand meters, and the ground in the middle had turned into a bottomless canyon.

Karna lies prone on a suspended rock, the only remnant of Rajagriha.

His left leg had disappeared, and the wound was not filled with blood, but with silver-blue threads that kept wriggling.

These threads are slowly spreading upwards, and wherever they pass, the flesh and blood becomes transparent.

“Dad…Mom…”

The boy looked at his arm in despair as it began to turn into a worm and something was wriggling under his skin.

In the sky, the red-white and silver-blue lights were still colliding violently.

Every confrontation caused strange changes in the world - sometimes gravity suddenly reversed, sometimes rain flowed back into the clouds, and the most terrifying thing was those space-time rifts that suddenly appeared and disappeared. If someone accidentally touched them, half of their body would be left in another timeline forever.

Karna saw a surviving old woman kneeling down to pray in the distance, and the next second she was burned to ashes by a pale fireball that fell from the sky. Closer, several soldiers who were transforming into insects suddenly began to walk backwards, and finally retracted into the womb state.

"Is this... the power of God..."

The boy coughed up a mouthful of silver-blue blood and his vision began to blur.

Before he completely lost consciousness, he vaguely saw the three bodies of the Brahma Emperor in the sky suddenly merge into one, turning into a constantly collapsing point of light. The Fierce Emperor roared and compressed the Fire of the End into a spear that pierced through the sky and the earth.

“Three phases… the wrath of God!”

"Nine turns... Burning Star!"

At the moment when two forces beyond the world's endurance limit collided, Karna's body finally completely transformed into an insect.

His consciousness did not disappear, but was dispersed into tens of millions of time worms, which were scattered to different timelines with the aftermath of the explosion.

At the very end, he seemed to hear a third voice—cold, precise, and emotionless:
"Observation record of the 90721st God War experiment, data collection completion rate 93.7%, it is recommended to start the harvesting protocol."

The sound came from the moon overhead.

…………

In the silver-blue turbulence of space and time, Brahma's four pairs of insect wings were fully extended.

The verses of the Vedas on the wing membranes moved like living things, dyeing the sky within a radius of 3,000 miles into a spectacle of upside-down stars. His three faces simultaneously stared at the Emperor, and his voice carried the humming sound of a swarm of insects:

"Coming across the border, your power is blocked by the spirit world. Even if you open the gate of heaven and teleport across the heavenly dimension, your cultivation will still be reduced to one tenth of what it was."

The dead wood lines on the face of the past twisted into a sarcastic arc: "How can you be my enemy?"

The Fierce Emperor's End Fire did indeed dim a bit in the silver-blue area.

But he suddenly laughed wildly, his white hair dancing like flames: "Insects are insects, their vision is only a few inches."

He suddenly tore open the armor on his chest, revealing nine tattoos of blazing suns. Three of them were already lit, and at this moment the fourth began to emit dazzling golden light: "Since this emperor dares to set foot on Blue Star, how can he not be prepared?"

Before he finished speaking, a sudden change occurred!
The void behind Brahma suddenly split open, and a scepter wrapped in starlight broke through the air and accurately pierced into the crack of His future face. The cosmic wonder inlaid on the top of the scepter was exactly the "Heavenly Crystal Jade" sacrificed by the Goddess of Wonderful Sound!
“Hera!”

Brahma's present face was wide open with anger, and silver-blue divine blood gushed out from the wound on his future face.

The queen of heaven, wearing a gorgeous long dress decorated with stars, stepped out from the void, with the Olympian fire dancing between her golden curly hair.

She swung the scepter gracefully, and the Celestial Crystal Jade suddenly emitted twisted gravitational waves: "Brahma Emperor, you shouldn't have broken your promise... Since I dared to give you the Celestial Crystal Jade, I have already taken your betrayal into account." (End of this chapter)
