Chapter 500 -500-The World-Ending Iser

Chapter 500: Chapter500-The World-Ending Iser

Meanwhile, as the blood rain grew heavier, the World-Ending Iser began evolving at an astonishing rate.

Its aura surged without pause.

Before long—

its power had already reached the level of a Half-Step Supreme God.

And it was still climbing.

As the World-Ending Iser continued to grow, the blood rain became increasingly violent, pouring down like endless crimson tides.

The speed at which it decomposed all things also accelerated.

Some smaller planes had already begun collapsing.

Countless living beings within them perished in droves.

And all of their life essence flowed directly back into the World-Ending Iser, further strengthening its power.

Once the minor planes had been destroyed—

the major planes came next.

One plane after another decomposed.

Then entire universes began to collapse.

And as more universes fell apart, even the greater cosmic domains connected to them started disintegrating.

Every shattered plane meant the deaths of billions upon billions of lives.

Every destroyed universe meant the annihilation of an unimaginable number of living beings.

In just a few short hours—

more than half of all life across the myriad universes and the countless space-time universes had vanished.

And the extinction was still spreading.

...

Within the Myriad Races Universe.

John sat cross-legged in midair.

A moment later, several figures from the Heroic Spirit Corridor appeared beside him.

None of them spoke.

They simply sat down cross-legged in silence.

John slowly lowered his gaze.

"Open."

The moment he spoke—

a hazy halo appeared behind his head.

Within that indistinct ring of light, countless images began to unfold.

John carefully sensed them.

And within those scenes...

he saw another John.

A John who had already reached the Half-Step Supreme God realm.

It was none other than Sovereign Jie.

Sovereign Jie was also sitting cross-legged.

However, before him stood an indistinct figure whose appearance could not be seen clearly.

That figure radiated the aura of a Sovereign as well.

Like Sovereign Jie, it also sat cross-legged.

"Sovereign Jie..."

"You are the strongest among all Half-Step Supreme Gods."

"You are also the one with the greatest chance of breaking through into the Supreme God Realm."

"However, the moment you ascend to the Supreme God Realm..."

"...will also be the moment everything is destroyed."

"Countless rivers of space-time will be buried alongside you!"

Sovereign Jie frowned slightly.

He replied indifferently,

"If becoming a Supreme God requires such a price, then what meaning does that realm have?"

"Does that mean the legendary Supreme God Realm doesn’t truly exist?"

"A Half-Step Supreme God stands equal to the Cosmic Will."

"And a Supreme God stands equal to the Primordial Dao."

"The Cosmic Will..."

"Are you telling me that even the Primordial Dao Realm is false?"

Only then did the truth become clear.

That indistinct figure...

was the manifestation of the Cosmic Will itself.

"The Primordial Dao does exist," the Cosmic Will replied calmly.

"However, reaching it requires the birth of a true Supreme God."

Sovereign Jie narrowed his eyes.

"So the Supreme God Realm really does exist?"

"Then why do you prevent Supreme Gods from being born?"

The Cosmic Will’s manifestation spoke coldly.

"Once the Cosmic Will attains the Primordial Dao, it is no longer the Cosmic Will that exists now."

"Why should I destroy myself merely to create the Primordial Dao?"

Sovereign Jie gave a cold laugh.

"How pathetic."

"For a living being to become a Supreme God, they must destroy everything—including themselves."

"And for the Cosmic Will to reach the Primordial Dao, it must nurture a Supreme God and then allow its current self to perish..."

"Only then can the Primordial Dao be born?"

The Cosmic Will stared at him coldly.

"So give up, Sovereign Jie."

"You cannot succeed."

"And even if you somehow do... it will only be a fleeting illusion."

"Treat the Supreme God Realm as nothing more than a dream."

Sovereign Jie immediately replied,

"Like hell I will."

"I’ll make a bet with you."

"I will become a Supreme God."

"And when I do, you are not allowed to fight me anymore."

"I’ve fought you for endless ages."

"I’m damn tired of it."

"So this time..."

"You listen to me!"

The Cosmic Will sneered.

"You are dreaming."

"You are a Calamity of All Beings."

"And even without you..."

"another Calamity of All Beings will inevitably appear."

"When that happens, not only will you lose your own life—"

"all the myriad universes will still be destroyed."

"You cannot do it..."

"Sovereign Jie."

Suddenly—

Sovereign Jie smiled.

A sly grin appeared on his face.

"I’ll take that as a yes."

"Cosmic Will..."

"Just wait for me to come back."

The Cosmic Will’s manifestation froze.

"What?"

"What are you planning to do?"

"Where are you going?"

Sovereign Jie grinned.

"I’m going to reincarnate."

"Heh!"

"Two Calamities of All Beings existing at the same time."

"Twin Calamities standing side by side..."

"I’d like to see which one is stronger."

"Me—"

"or the next Calamity of All Beings!"

Sovereign Jie abruptly stood.

His figure vanished instantly.

Only the lonely manifestation of the Cosmic Will remained behind.

Along with a long sigh.

"...Sigh."

The scene within the halo behind John’s head froze there.

At the same time—

Whoosh!

The halo suddenly shot into John’s body.

John’s eyes snapped open.

Buzz—

The instant his eyes opened, the surrounding space-time began trembling.

"So that’s how it was..."

"These..."

"are my true memories."

Law-light circulated within John’s eyes.

Decades spent tempering his heart among mortals—

had allowed him to comprehend the true meaning of life.

And in doing so...

he had finally awakened the memories of his previous life.

"In my previous life, I could have chosen to destroy the world and gamble everything on reaching the Supreme God Realm."

"But at the final moment..."

"I gave up."

"Because I refused to believe that annihilating all existence was the only path to Supreme Godhood."

"There had to be another way!"

"At the same time, my previous self already knew that the Infinite Cataclysm, the World-Ending Iser, the Chaos Void Domain, and all these events would inevitably appear."

"A new Calamity of All Beings would be born!"

Complex emotions flashed through John’s eyes.

"So that was the bet I made with the Cosmic Will."

"To defeat the next Calamity of All Beings..."

"while also ascending to the Supreme God Realm!"

"That new Calamity of All Beings is an unimaginable horror—"

"but also an unprecedented opportunity."

"My previous self gambled everything on it."

"That was why he deliberately left behind Valhalla, the mysterious imprints, and all those other preparations."

"All so that I could continue growing..."

"until the day I finally recovered my true memories."

John finally understood everything.

So that was it...

"The members of Valhalla also died one after another."

"Only Holly, Silt, and Odelle—"

"the three who followed my previous self—"

"reincarnated together with me!"

"So..."

"everything was part of my previous life’s plan."

John’s eyes sharpened.

"In my previous life, I had already reached the Half-Step Supreme God realm."

"I was one of those who had truly reached the shore."

"I once stood above countless rivers of space-time."

"I treated all living beings as pieces upon a board."

"I moved across the myriad worlds as I pleased..."

"and commanded the tides of an entire era."

At last—

John understood everything.

"Break through!"

Without hesitation, John began consuming the enormous reserve of Law Comprehension Points he had accumulated.

At that instant—

his aura began rising explosively.

BOOM!!!

In the blink of an eye—

[Ding! Your Law Grade has advanced!]

[Current Law Grade: Level 8!]

[Ding! Your current realm has advanced to Great Sovereign!]

John listened to the system notifications ringing in his ears.

Then he took out the Ultimate Sovereign Template.

"Fuse."

The moment the command left his lips—

the Ultimate Sovereign Template transformed into a stream of light and entered John’s body.

John began fusing with it.

[Ding! Fusion successful!]

[Ultimate Sovereign functions unlocked!]

[Notice: Ultimate Sovereign Template has activated its Peak Ascension Effect!]

[Ding! Your current Law Grade has automatically advanced after consuming a massive amount of comprehension!]

[Current Law: Grade 9 Space-Time Law!]

[Notice: Your current realm has advanced to Great Peak Sovereign!]

John’s eyes flashed.

"Great Peak Sovereign!"
