Chapter 335: The End
Toby instantly grew to a colossal size, towering into the heavens. Even the lightning of divine punishment could do nothing against him. Inside the Pocket World, Toby could no longer be referred to as “he”—he was now “He.”
A hazy, radiant silhouette emanated an irresistible divine might. A grand and sacred voice echoed from all directions, and the world rejoiced. This was the first native “True God” of this world.
“I declare— I shed my mortal form and become truly holy. This realm is the True Saint Realm. The world shall call me True God! You who blaspheme the True God, your sins are unforgivable. Cut off your own Heart Fire and return to the mother body of the world.”
The undeniable voice came from Toby. The World’s Subconscious had merged with him. At this moment, he was the World’s Subconscious, and the World’s Subconscious was him—he was the True God!
The minds of everyone besieging Toby were seized with terror. The Four Thunder Generals lost control of themselves and detonated on the spot, dying instantly.
The others either died or fled, but none could escape the domain covering Toby. They were easily crushed.
Tyrone felt the origin power within him waver, as if it wanted to leave his body. Just then, the Eye of Divine Punishment descended.
Ace, who had been waiting in the “Source” for a long time, finally saw his moment. The World’s Subconscious had left the “Source,” which meant it had also abandoned its status.
From this moment on, it could no longer confine Ace within the “Source.” As it descended to the surface layer of the world, Ace was completely liberated.
The thought fragment of Ace hidden within Tyrone instantly covered Tyrone’s body and soul. The “God” he visualized twisted and transformed, finally taking on Ace’s appearance.
Multicolored divine light spread terror, formless and shapeless. It was the great Outer God, the Supreme God Ai, descending upon the surface layer of the world.
Toby cautiously launched a probing attack. His Heart Fire condensed into a hand that blotted out the sky, swinging toward Ace.
Layers of runes flickered in Ace’s eyes. Behind him stood the six elemental rings. Beneath his feet was a cloud of tribulation lightning. His dreamscape spread out, covering the surface layer of the world. An ancient battlefield manifested, and countless undead crawled out from the ground, wielding ancient weapons.
His divine clone desperately devoured the “Source.” A flame rose in the empty space left by the World’s Subconscious, burning the Divine Kingdom.
Toby’s eyes were cold. “I am the True God of the Great Dao of Heart Fire, the True God of this world. Outer God, begone.”
Waves of torrential fire surged forward. Ace’s expression remained unchanged. Runes swirled around him as the power of order surged.
“Law of Command!”
As Ace uttered this word, the rules of the entire world trembled slightly. The power of order had already penetrated deep into this world, becoming its framework.
“I, the Outer God Ace, am the creator of the path of Heart Fire, the source of Heart Fire in this world. The God of Heart Fire before me shall obey. His power comes from me and shall return to me.”
Ace’s words were like a thunderclap. The world trembled in fear, winds and clouds shifted, and rules shook. Toby had no time to resist. The deepest secrets hidden within the path of Heart Fire turned him into a ball of flame.
A ball of glazed fire appeared in Ace’s hand. With a gentle push, it devoured Toby’s flame completely. The only native True God of the Pocket World and the former World’s Subconscious vanished entirely.
In the inner layer of the world, inside the “Source,” Ace appeared at the clash between the Divine Kingdom and the flames. With a wave of his glazed fire, he easily devoured all the flames. The Great Dao of Heart Fire, which the former consciousness of the Pocket World had exhausted its origin to deduce, became nothing more than a wedding dress for someone else.
Ace’s Mental Imagery World manifested on the surface layer, constantly covering and eroding the reality of the Pocket World. The Pocket World’s reflection emerged, fueling the process.
If someone were outside this space, they would notice nothing unusual. But inside the space, in the interlayer outside the Pocket World, they would see the entire Pocket World gradually being swallowed by a layer of mist.
About ten years passed. As the last shred of reality was covered, all the secrets of the Pocket World were laid bare to Ace.
Ace’s mental imagery dream world completely covered the surface layer of the Pocket World. Using the world’s origin, he deduced his next 3-Ring Spell.
The stars of the heavens revolved—a projection and simulation of the celestial bodies in the real world. At this moment, massive amounts of origin were poured in, and the astrological phenomena rapidly solidified.
“The Celestial Body Hypothesis leads to two important fields: Meditation and Prophecy! I need a ‘Constellation Meditation Method’ that uses the stars of the Prime Material Plane as meditation objects, and a ‘Constellation Divination’ that borrows the guidance of the stars to communicate with mysterious fate and even time.”
With his Eye of Truth (Pseudo) active, Ace’s eyes were dazzling. Ignoring the cost, he burned through the Pocket World’s origin to deduce the 3-Ring Meditation Method.
Ace sat in the center of the world, surrounded by the stars of the heavens. As the origin of the Pocket World was consumed, the space where the Pocket World resided resonated with the Prime Material Plane, slowly outlining and replicating its stars.
About thirty years passed. With only a third of the Pocket World’s origin remaining, the stars of the Prime Material Plane were finally replicated into the Pocket World—that is, into Ace’s Mental Imagery World.
Every projected star appeared to be a celestial body on the surface, but in essence, they were rune groups representing specific stellar characteristics. These rune groups didn’t form structures because the replication wasn’t perfect; only the runes representing the Sun and Moon formed complete rune structures.
“This is the limit, but it’s enough. It works perfectly as a 3-Ring Meditation Method.”
Ace said with satisfaction. Although the meditation effect was poor because he was outside the world, it far exceeded the effect of the 2-Ring Meditation Method.
The brilliant magic power formed by the stars of the Prime Material Plane gradually appeared on the surface layer of the Pocket World, accumulating slowly due to the difference in time flow.
“In the instant of meditation, I felt a distinct difference in time. The flow inside the Pocket World is completely different from the outside. It seems some wondrous underlying rule is at play.”
Although he had become the supreme ruler of the Pocket World, the most fundamental rules of the Pocket World were still like flowers in the fog to Ace—his observation power seemed insufficient.
“If I consider every individual an observer, I am a newly advanced Level 2 observer. Without using the Eye of Truth (Pseudo), I can’t discover the underlying rules. When I use it, I can see them, but not clearly.
“There are two explanations now. First, my life level isn’t high enough; I need to be Level 3 to see clearly. Second, my power is insufficient; if my power increases while staying at Level 2, I might be able to see clearly.”
Ace’s eyes flickered, as if he were making an important decision.
“Before that, I need to use some more Pocket World origin to deduce Constellation Divination.”
As Ace spoke, his words became law. The origin of the entire world surged, and a die slowly floated up. It was covered in dense rune structures, seemingly foretelling something.
The stars revolved in an orderly fashion, and the die spun along with them. Gradually, a brilliant light erupted. The stars fell one by one, plunging into the die. Boom!
A giant die engraved with the stars of the Prime Material Plane was born. The sky, missing its stars, seemed exceptionally desolate. Ace’s mental power surged, replicating the runes of the stars back into the sky bit by bit.
