Chapter 1134 - 515: The Source Code Contaminated!_2

Rumble!

The entire supermassive black hole suddenly trembled!

This "millstone" of the cosmos, this ultimate celestial body from which nothing escapes, at this moment... began to reverse!

It was no longer devouring, but being... devoured!

Xu Ran, taking himself as the singularity and using the essence of "Wild" as propulsion, was forcibly devouring a supermassive black hole!

Endless material and energy compressed to the extreme, along with the law of "gravitational cessation" represented by the black hole itself, transformed into a violent torrent, pouring into Xu Ran’s body, becoming the fuel for his resistance against the "Reset Protocol"!

His body expanded in the devouring, then contracted under the pressure of "Reset." His breath, in this mad banquet, climbed step by step, breaking through shackles one after another, reaching an indescribable, incomprehensible new realm!

His body could no longer be called "flesh and blood."

It was a "monster of Dao" constructed from the essence of "Wild", the will of the "Wall Breaker", the termination law of the black hole, and countless cosmic concepts erased by the "Reset"!

"So that’s how it is..."

In the extreme balance of devouring and resistance, Xu Ran’s consciousness touched a deeper secret.

"The ’Reset Protocol’ is not invulnerable."

"The reason it can erase everything is that it is above this cosmos in ’dimension’. Its commands directly affect the underlying code of the cosmos."

"I can’t prevent the code from being deleted, but..."

Xu Ran’s eyes flashed with a hint of madness.

"What if... I find the ’programmer’ executing the delete command?"

"What if... I smash his keyboard before he hits the enter key!"

This thought, like a spark igniting a prairie fire, instantly ignited all his will!

He wanted to fight back!

Not passively devour remnants, but actively... strike!

What he wanted to do was something this cosmos, the myriad cosmoses treated as "experiments", had never seen a being accomplish—

Breaking Wall!

To strike with the fury of an "experiment" at the lofty "Matrix"!

"With my body as a furnace, smelt the doomsday of the cosmos!"

"With my Dao as the fire, burn the eternal dirge!"

"With my will as the blade, sever the chains of dimension!"

Xu Ran’s voice transformed into a grand Dao sound, resounding through the last corner of this cosmos about to return to the void.

All the power he had devoured—the termination of the black hole, the remnants of the cosmos, the defiance of the Wall Breaker, the Dao Principles shards of the Cleanser—everything was unreservedly infused into his right fist.

His right fist became incomparably radiant at this moment.

That was not light but the ultimate concentration of "existence." As if all the weight of the cosmos from birth to destruction was focused on this single point.

Then, facing the void, facing the "null" that represented the cosmos’s boundary, slowly, he extended a punch.

This punch did not tear the space apart.

Because the concept of space had long become chaotic.

This punch did not shake time.

Because the river of time had long dried up.

This punch shattered "rules"! Shattered "boundaries"! Shattered the cold, insurmountable "wall" between "high dimension" and "low dimension"!

Crack—

A crisp sound, like glass shattering, echoed in the deepest recesses of Xu Ran’s soul.

The "void" before him, that absolute darkness representing "Reset", twisted and caved in as though struck by a boulder, and finally... was pierced through!

An indescribable "hole" appeared on the membrane of the cosmos.

It wasn’t the chaotic void outside the cosmos but... another world!

Xu Ran’s gaze followed that "hole."

He saw it.

He saw a corner of the "High-Dimensional Matrix."

It wasn’t a cold data torrent, nor the Divine Country or Celestial Palace he imagined.

What he saw was a vast land paved with gray-white skeletons.

These bones varied in form, some as enormous as stars, others as meandering as divine dragons. Every skeleton bore an earth-shattering aura, belonging to the "Wall Breakers"! Belonging to those who had reached the peak of their own cosmos, attempted to break through barriers, but ultimately failed and were "harvested"!

This was the graveyard of the "Wall Breakers"!

And at the end of the skeletal land, stood towering "towers" constructed from countless pulsating runes and logic chains.

Each "tower" monitored countless cosmoses.

And at this moment, atop the tallest and most magnificent "tower", an eye slowly opened.

What kind of eye it was!

More vast than nebulae, deeper than black holes. In its pupils, there was not a trace of emotion, only endless "causality" and "logic" in computation. It was the embodiment of "reason," the source of "rules."

The moment this eye opened, it saw Xu Ran.

Saw this daredevil fish who dared to break the "fishbowl" and peek outside.

"Variable... exceeding threshold."

"Initiate... final eradication program."

A cold will, transcending the barriers of dimensions, directly descended upon Xu Ran.

It wasn’t an attack, but a sort of "definition" overlay.

It intended to redefine Xu Ran’s existence from a "variable" back to "null."

However, at the instant this will descended, Xu Ran laughed.

This was the moment he had been waiting for!

He threw that punch, not to escape, nor to demonstrate.

He aimed to... establish a "coordinate"!

A coordinate that could enable him to lock onto the enemy’s location!

"Finally... I’ve found you!"

Under the pressure of the "final eradication program," Xu Ran’s body began to frantically disintegrate and vaporize. But with all accumulated power, his will surged against that gaze, reversed along the "eradication" will-built dimensional pathway, launching a desperate charge toward that colossal eye!

He intended not a physical "Breaking Wall," but a willful "invasion"!

If you perceive me as data, I shall transform into the most terrifying "virus," infecting your "system"!

"Desolation... is my name!"

"Devouring... is my Dao!"

"Today, with the death of this cosmos as an offering, using myself as the medium..."

As Xu Ran’s will entered the dimensional channel, it transformed into the most primordial form of "Wild." It became an infinite stretch of "desolation" capable of devouring all concepts, surging toward the rational embodiment represented by that enormous eye!

"...pollute your ’Dao’!"

Rumble rumble rumble—!!!

The pupil of that gigantic eye, the world composed of countless causal logic chains, for the first time, exhibited a hint of... chaos.

A trace of insignificant "gray" stained that pure "reason."

The giant eye atop the tower, for the first time, displayed an emotion akin to "shock."

It had never considered that a low-dimensional "data" could reverse-pollute its "source code"!

Although the pollution was insignificant, like a drop of ink in the ocean, its very appearance was a taboo, an "error" that should never have occurred!

"Error... must be corrected!"

The grand will transformed into endless "antiviral" runes, frantically slaughtering Xu Ran’s invading will.

Yet, in the already completely reverted "null" Gengchen Cosmos, Xu Ran’s disintegrating body bore the final, victorious smile.

His body could be eradicated.

This cosmos could be reset.

But he had successfully planted the seed of "Wild," the unyielding will of the Wall Breaker, into the heart of the enemy!
