Chapter 46 The Fourth Core of Evolution! The Horrifying Truth About the Mirror Civilization!

Eternal Divine Kingdom · Departure After the Choice

Lin Feng stood on the high platform of the Eternal Divine Kingdom headquarters, his gaze as deep as the starry sky.

He had made his choice—to continue collecting the civilization evolution core.

"Lin Feng, are you sure?" Li Xue's voice trembled. "The warning from the First Universe... the price of an Eternal Civilization might be the destruction of the Multiverse."

"It is precisely because the price is unknown that we need to collect all ten cores." Lin Feng turned around, a determined light flashing in his eyes. "Only by mastering the complete power can we find a third option."

Tian Jian gripped the void galaxy end sword in his hand: "Then let's fight!"

Li Xue took a deep breath, a flash of resolution in her eyes: "Okay, I will accompany you to the end."

Lin Feng nodded and waved his hand to activate the cross-universe teleportation array.

"Target—Second Universe, departure!"

Second Universe · Mirror World

When the fleet of the Eternal Divine Kingdom entered the Second Universe, everyone was stunned.

The scene before them completely overturned their perception.

Everything in the Second Universe was "mirrored."

The light of the stars was a cold blue, the planet surfaces were covered with crystal-like structures, and even space itself presented a distorted mirror effect.

"This is... a mirror universe?" Li Xue looked at the data on the detector in shock. "The law structure here is completely opposite to ours!"

"Not only that," Lin Feng narrowed his eyes. "The civilization here may have evolved to a degree we cannot imagine."

[System Warning: Strong law fluctuations detected]

[Fluctuation intensity: Unknown]

[Danger level: Extremely dangerous]

Just then, a huge figure appeared in front of the Eternal Divine Kingdom's fleet.

It was a massive entity composed entirely of crystal, over a light-year in height, with its body presenting a complex mirror structure.

[Target detected: Mirror Civilization Mastermind]

[Civilization level: Peak Level 10 Civilization]

"Mirror Civilization Mastermind..." Lin Feng's pupils constricted. "Is this the controller of the Second Universe?"

The Terrifying Truth of the Mirror Civilization

"Welcome to the mirror universe," a grand voice echoed directly in Lin Feng's mind. "I am the mastermind of the Mirror Civilization; you can call me—Mirror."

Lin Feng looked at this crystal giant vigilantly: "What have you come for?"

"To stop you." Mirror's voice was calm. "You are collecting the civilization evolution core, which is a wrong path."

"Wrong?" Tian Jian sneered. "Who said this is wrong?"

"Because the true function of the civilization evolution core is not to create an Eternal Civilization," Mirror said slowly, "but to restart the Multiverse."

Lin Feng was stunned: "What do you mean?"

"The Multiverse restarts every hundred million years," Mirror explained. "The civilization evolution core is the key to the restart. You think you are creating an Eternal Civilization, but in reality, you are pressing the restart button."

Li Xue's face turned pale instantly: "You mean... we are digging our own graves?"

"No," Mirror shook its head. "Worse. Restarting the Multiverse means all civilizations will disappear, and all life will return to nothingness."

"That's impossible!" Lin Feng refuted loudly. "The records of the Level 11 Civilization in the First Universe didn't mention this at all!"

"Because the Level 11 Civilization doesn't know." Mirror's voice carried a trace of sadness. "They only know that an Eternal Civilization needs to consume the origin power of the Multiverse, but they don't know the truth about the restart."

"You... how do you know?" Lin Feng asked.

"Because the Mirror Civilization has already experienced two restarts." Mirror's voice was low. "The first time, we, like other civilizations, were wiped out by the restart. The second time, we discovered the laws of the restart and chose to enter the Second Universe to become the Mirror Civilization, waiting for the next restart."

"You mean... there are other civilizations that know the truth about the restart?" Li Xue asked in horror.

"Yes." Mirror nodded. "In the ten universes, each universe has one civilization that knows the truth. We formed an alliance to stop anyone from collecting the civilization evolution core."

"Then where is the fourth core?" Lin Feng went straight to the point.

Mirror was silent for a moment: "In the core of the Second Universe, in the Mirror Temple."

"I understand." Lin Feng took a deep breath. "You want to stop me."

"We don't want to be enemies with the Eternal Divine Kingdom." Mirror's voice carried a hint of pleading. "But for the safety of the Multiverse, we must stop you."

"What if I insist on taking it?" Lin Feng's voice was cold.

"Then we have no choice but to go to war." Mirror's voice became heavy.

Eternal Divine Kingdom VS Mirror Civilization

"Prepare for battle!" Lin Feng ordered loudly.

The 80 billion Level 10 Civilization members of the Eternal Divine Kingdom attacked simultaneously, and 800 billion law attacks bombarded the crystal giant.

But just as the attacks were about to hit, something eerie happened.

All the law attacks were mirrored the moment they made contact with the crystal giant.

The law attacks that were originally bombarding the crystal giant suddenly reversed direction and bombarded the fleet of the Eternal Divine Kingdom itself!

"What?!" Tian Jian looked in shock as his own attacks returned to him. "How is this possible?"

"Mirror Law." Li Xue's voice trembled. "The Mirror Civilization can mirror all attacks!"

A cold light flashed in Lin Feng's eyes: "Then use attacks that cannot be mirrored."

He closed his eyes, and the two civilization evolution cores in his body began to resonate.

"civilization evolution core—Resonance!"

A power surpassing a Level 10 Civilization erupted. Lin Feng's figure disappeared from where he was and appeared above the crystal giant's head in the next second.

The void galaxy end sword slashed down!

"Sshhh—"

A huge crack was cut into the crystal giant's body.

"Roar!!!"

The crystal giant let out a deafening roar, and a large amount of crystal energy gushed out from the crack.

"How is it possible?" Mirror's voice carried shock. "You broke the Mirror Law?"

"The power of the civilization evolution core is beyond your understanding." Lin Feng said coldly.

"Then I will use even greater power." Mirror's voice became crazy.

The crystal giant's body began to tremble violently, and all the crystal energy in the Second Universe gathered toward it.

"Mirror Civilization · Ultimate Mystery—Mirror of All Things!"

The entire Second Universe began to mirror; stars, planets, space, and even time began to mirror.

"Not good!" Li Xue shouted in horror. "It is mirroring the entire universe!"

"Time Acceleration!" Lin Feng activated the law of time, attempting to stop the spread of the mirroring.

But the law of time was mirrored.

"It's useless." Mirror's voice was triumphant. "In the mirror universe, I am god."

Just when Lin Feng was about to despair, the third civilization evolution core in his body suddenly reacted.

"Wait..." Lin Feng opened his eyes, a trace of shock flashing through them.

He discovered that the third civilization evolution core was actually resonating with the core of the crystal giant.

"The third core... is on the crystal giant?"

Lin Feng instantly understood something.

"The true purpose of the Mirror Civilization is not to stop me from collecting the civilization evolution core." Lin Feng's voice was filled with anger. "You want me to become the next restart initiator!"

"What?" Mirror's voice became panicked.

"The third core is not in the core of the Second Universe, but on you!" Lin Feng said loudly. "You are the carrier of the third civilization evolution core!"

"Nonsense!" Mirror refuted loudly.

"Then tell me, why does my third core resonate with you?" Lin Feng pressed.

Mirror fell silent.

"Because you are the third core, and you have been waiting for someone to activate you." Lin Feng's voice was cold. "And then, through me, restart the Multiverse!"

"No..." Mirror's voice carried despair. "I don't want to restart... I just want to survive..."

"Survive?" Lin Feng sneered. "Your so-called survival is letting all civilizations be buried with you?"

"I have no choice..." Mirror's voice was tearful. "I am the carrier of the civilization evolution core, and I cannot escape this fate..."

"Then let me help you escape." Lin Feng raised the void galaxy end sword. "Today, I will sever this fate!"

Determination of the Eternal Divine Kingdom

"Lin Feng, wait." Li Xue held Lin Feng back. "If Mirror is the third core, how are we going to obtain it?"

"Cut it down directly." Lin Feng's voice was firm. "I would rather restart the Multiverse myself than let it control me."

"You're crazy!" Mirror shouted. "You don't know the consequences of a restart!"

"I will find a third option." Lin Feng's gaze was burning. "I promise you."

"Then come and try!" Mirror's voice became insane.

The crystal giant's body completely collapsed, turning into countless crystal energies that bombarded Lin Feng.

"Eternal Divine Kingdom, full attack!" Lin Feng ordered loudly.

800 billion law attacks bombarded the crystal energy, and the entire Second Universe trembled.

Lin Feng's figure disappeared into the energy storm and appeared at the core position of the crystal giant in the next second.

The void galaxy end sword slashed down!

"Sshhh—"

The core of the crystal giant was cut open, and a crystal emitting rainbow light flew out from it.

[Item obtained: Fourth civilization evolution core]

[Collection progress: 4/10]

"I succeeded." Lin Feng held the fourth core, a victorious light flashing in his eyes.

"You really succeeded?" Li Xue breathed a sigh of relief.

"But the Mirror Civilization..." Lin Feng looked at the crystal giant that had turned into fragments, a trace of sadness flashing in his eyes.

"It has been liberated." Tian Jian walked over and said.

"Yes." Lin Feng nodded. "At least, it doesn't have to be a slave to the civilization evolution core anymore."

"Where to next?" Li Xue asked.

Lin Feng looked at the starry sky, a determined light flashing in his eyes: "The Third Universe."
