Chapter 98: The Truth of Reincarnation! A Game Beyond the Rules
The deep rumble from the depths of the rift was like an invisible torrent, constantly crashing against the boundaries of the core domain of the rules, tearing at the balance of nothingness. The golden runes, still under Isaac's control, spun rapidly, forming countless streams of light that covered the entire space, firmly sealing off the aftershocks left by the enormous divine figure. However, the rumble did not diminish; instead, it grew clearer with the advancement of the rules, as if containing some undeniable summons.
Kizaru stood behind Isaac, his expression more grave than ever. Looking at the expanding crack ahead, he murmured, "Young Master, this thing is no ordinary thing. That guy was already terrifying, and now it's still moving? Could this crack be connected to something even bigger?"
Isaac said coldly, "Wherever the power of the rules extends, all hidden threats will be exposed. Whatever it may be, it cannot escape final judgment."
Kizaru scratched his head and said with a wry smile, "From what you're saying, it seems the rules are about to reach their true limit. Hopefully, what comes next won't be too difficult."
Isaac ignored Kizaru's worries, his gaze remaining fixed on the depths of the crack. The radiance of the core of the rules continued to intensify, the runes rotated faster and faster, and the golden net of light gradually seeped into the interior of the crack, attempting to completely seal off the faint sense of unease emanating from it.
As the power of the core rules gradually penetrated deeper into the crack, a completely different energy fluctuation began to spread out from it. This fluctuation was neither like the chaotic power before, nor like the oppressive feeling of the higher-dimensional will, but rather an indescribable etherealness and purity, as if it transcended the opposition between rules and chaos.
The system alarm sounded again:
[Warning! Pure energy reaction from an unknown dimension detected. The target state is completely incompatible with the known rule system, and is suspected to be a direct mapping of the foundation of the universe. Current domain coverage has decreased to 30%.]
Upon hearing this, Kizaru's expression instantly became even more complicated. He said in a low voice, "Young Master, even the system says this thing is beyond the scope of the rules. Do you think we still have a chance to suppress it?"
Isaac's gaze turned cold, his voice filled with absolute authority: "The core of the rules is the foundation of the universe's order, and its power is without limit. Even the foundation of the universe must submit."
Having said that, he gently waved his hand, and the radiance of the core of the rules instantly surged. Countless golden runes surged into the depths of the crack like a tide, attempting to completely devour the indescribable energy. However, a dazzling white light suddenly shone from within the crack. This white light carried an irresistible aura, instantly piercing through the domain of the core of the rules and shattering all the runes.
As the white light spread, a blurry outline appeared at the center of the crack. The outline floated in the void, surrounded by countless tiny points of light. These points of light resembled fragments of stars or some kind of unfinished runes. They slowly rotated along a strange trajectory, forming a huge array.
"Lord of the Rules..." The voice emanating from that silhouette was deep and ethereal, seemingly echoing in every corner of the universe. "Have you ever considered that the existence of rules is not absolute, but rather part of the cycle of reincarnation?"
Isaac stared coldly at the silhouette, his voice filled with murderous intent: "The power of the rules never needs to be questioned. No matter who you are, you cannot change its authority."
The silhouette chuckled softly, its voice tinged with a strange mockery: "Authority? The authority of rules is merely a tool for the universe's self-repair. And you are nothing more than a temporary controller of this tool. True truth has never belonged to the rules."
Kizaru's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but whisper, "Young Master, this guy doesn't seem like an ordinary enemy. Instead, he seems like... some kind of antithesis to the rules?"
Isaac's gaze remained icy. He slowly raised his hand, and the radiance of the core of the rules condensed once more. Countless golden runes, under his control, transformed into a massive battle blade. His voice was cold and resolute: "The rules have no opposites. All that attempts to resist them will be utterly annihilated."
The silhouette seemed unaffected by Isaac's threat; its voice remained ethereal and calm: "The existence of rules is merely a cycle, and at the end of the cycle lies an insurmountable truth. What you can control is only a temporary balance."
Isaac snorted coldly, and his battle blade shone with an even more dazzling light: "The power of the rules has no end, and your existence will become the nourishment for its continued expansion!"
The battle blade, carrying a world-destroying momentum, hurtled straight towards the core of the outline, its golden light streaking through the void like a meteor. However, just as the blade was about to strike, the conscience of the outline suddenly erupted with an extremely intense white light, and countless complex runes surged from within it, colliding fiercely with the runes of the core of the rules in mid-air.
The system alarms sounded one after another:
[WARNING! The target rune possesses extremely high dimensional adaptability, and the energy of the rule core is being gradually weakened. The current stability of the domain has decreased to 20%.]
Kizaru stared in disbelief at the scene before him and couldn't help but ask, "Young Master, this guy can actually weaken the core of the rules in reverse! Can we still hold on?"
Isaac ignored Kizaru's question, his attention completely focused on the core of the rules. He slowly raised his battle blade, his voice low and firm: "The power of the rules will not collapse; all resistance will be reduced to ashes!"
Isaac slowly placed his palm on the core of the rules and whispered, "System, remove all restrictions, activate the ultimate form of the core of the rules, and raise the energy to the highest level!"
[Ding! The ultimate form of the Rule Core has been activated... Current energy output increased to 1200%. Warning: Overload may cause a temporary collapse of the Rule Domain. Please operate with caution.]
As the brilliance of the core of the rules reached its peak, the entire void was covered in golden runes. Isaac's figure merged completely with the core of the rules, transforming into an even larger golden battle blade that pierced straight into the core of the outline.
"Under the rules, all resistance will be annihilated!"
The battle blade pierced through the void, colliding violently with the core of the outline, unleashing a deafening roar. Golden and white light intertwined, and the entire rift space trembled violently under the impact of this energy. Countless fragments of runes danced in the air, as if even the foundation of the universe was beginning to shake.
The outline gradually distorted under the pressure of the core of the rules, and its voice revealed a trace of unwillingness: "The victory of the rules is only temporary, but the cycle of truth will never stop..."
As those words fell, the core of the outline finally collapsed, turning into countless points of light and dissipating into nothingness. However, just as the crack was about to close, a deeper darkness slowly emerged from the end of the nothingness, as if some greater threat was about to descend.
Isaac sheathed his blade, his gaze coldly fixed on the depths of the crack, and said in a low voice, "The expansion of the rules will not stop. Whatever threat lies ahead will be completely eliminated."
Kizaru sighed and said with a wry smile, "Young Master, I truly hope this is the last time..."
