267: Chapter 267 The Collapse of the Laws of Physics

“BOOM————!!!!!!!!!”

The moment Chen Xi uttered the words “Cosmic Singularity: Big Bang,” the physical laws of the entire Sirius Sector seemed to completely collapse.

It wasn't a convergence of magical elements, nor was it a conventional buildup of high-dimensional energy. Instead, it was the collective [Will to Survive] of ten billion humans on Earth—mortals whom the High-dimensional Deities regarded as “low-dimensional carbon-based bugs”—erupting with a purity and madness that reached the absolute extreme!

“Aaaaahhhhh——!!!”

As the relay station for this will of ten billion, Ye Fei was currently enduring an unimaginable, horrific torture.

Her radiant, pure golden long hair danced wildly in the void. Because of the overload, the [Myriad Spirit Divine Seal] at the center of her brow had turned from gold to a branding-iron crimson, and threads of golden divine blood even began to seep out.

Her skin constantly cracked, healed, and cracked again!

If she hadn't advanced to the SSS-rank [Divine Maiden of Ten Thousand Spirits] and possessed the absolute divinity to encompass all living beings, any other person—even a Lv.99 Demi-god—would have had their mental sea blown into cosmic dust the instant they touched this torrent of ten billion souls!

“Captain... I... I can't hold on much longer!!!”

Ye Fei was bleeding from all seven orifices, and her vision was completely blurred. Yet, she still gritted her teeth, maintaining that golden spiritual bridge connecting Earth to the Sirius Sector on the brink of collapse, continuously pouring that massive willpower into Chen Xi's body.

“Hold on! A-Fei! Just a little bit more!”

Chen Xi's current appearance was ten times more wretched than Ye Fei's.

His demi-god body, which had fused the core of the Tower of Heaven and the laws of the star gate, was as fragile as thin paper before this trans-dimensional “Power of Creation.”

The flesh on his right arm had long been torn away by the terrifying gravity emitted by the forming “Singularity,” revealing white bones shimmering with dark golden divine runes.

His eyeballs were blood-red from extreme congestion, but within those reddish-gold pupils burned a madness and defiance enough to set the entire universe ablaze.

In his palm, a card unlike any before was struggling to condense.

That card had no color—or rather, it devoured all surrounding color and light. It was like a miniature black hole, but purer and denser. At the center of the card, an infinitely small [Point], which seemed to contain the mass of an endless universe, was frantically collapsing and throbbing!

“Warning! Warning! Detected an anomalous mass body severely violating the underlying logic of the universe!”

“Physical constants in this area are collapsing! Gravitational constant failing! Laws of thermodynamics failing!”

In the distant starry sky, within the vast, boundless shadow of the Star Abyss Tyrant, millions of blood-colored giant eyes simultaneously flashed with extreme terror.

This High-dimensional Deity, who had survived for an unknown number of cosmic eons and devoured countless galaxies, actually felt a [Creation Pressure] from that tiny human's hand at this moment—a pressure originating from the depths of the soul that a low-dimensional being should never possess!

“Madman! You absolute low-dimensional madman! You actually dare to forcibly create a primordial Singularity within the existing framework of the universe?!”

For the first time, the Star Abyss Tyrant's grand divine voice lost its lofty arrogance and playfulness, replaced by undisguised fury and horror.

“Once the Singularity goes out of control, not just me, but your fleet, that blue planet behind you, and even this entire Sirius Sector will be instantly blasted into a void of subatomic states! You're trying to drag everyone down with you!!!”

“Drag you down? Old monster, you're overestimating yourself.”

A raspy sneer, like a broken bellows, came from Chen Xi's throat. His right hand, now nothing but bone, tightly gripped that [Cosmic Singularity] card that felt like it weighed billions of tons; fine cracks even began to appear on his hand bones.

“I am the [Miracle Card Maker]. Since I can create it, I can damn well control whose stomach it explodes in!”

“[Concept Erasure: Galactic-Scale Annihilation]? Come on! Let me see if your ‘Nothingness’ is stronger, or if my ‘Origin of All Things,’ containing the unyielding will of ten billion people, is harder!!!”

The moment his voice fell, the absolute pitch-black void released by the Star Abyss Tyrant—enough to level a galaxy—slammed into the front of the expeditionary fleet like a silent tsunami.

The meteorite debris that failed to retreat didn't even turn to dust upon contact with the void; they were completely erased from the level of “existence,” turning into a blankness that was nothing at all.

“We can't stop it... This is impossible to stop...”

Inside the flagship's command bridge, countless soldiers of the Southern Sector looked at that void defense line representing absolute death, their eyes filled with despair.

“Captain Chen! Throw it out, quickly!!!” Li Murou and Su Xiaoxiao cried out at the top of their lungs.

In the split second of life and death, when that annihilating void was less than a meter from Chen Xi's nose!

“Go—to—hell!!!”

Chen Xi roared, exhausting the last bit of strength in his body. He didn't even hesitate to detonate three mana nodes within him to hurl that [Ultimate Creation Card: Cosmic Singularity: Big Bang], which was heavy as a galaxy, fiercely toward the annihilating void and the Star Abyss Tyrant behind it!

“Sizzle————!!!”

There was no earth-shattering explosion.

When that tiny [Singularity Card] crashed into that massive [Annihilating Void], time in the entire Sirius Sector seemed to be stretched countless times over.

Under everyone's horrified gaze, a scene appeared that completely defied conventional logic.

That high-dimensional conceptual void, capable of erasing everything, was like a piece of rag thrown into a super shredder the moment it touched the [Cosmic Singularity].

Instead of erasing the Singularity, it was frantically pulled, sucked, and collapsed inward by the Singularity's infinite gravity and mass!

“Concept Erasure” was itself a rule.

But before a [Cosmic Singularity], all rules, time, and space were meaningless! Because the Singularity was the state before the birth of all rules! All existing laws had to be reforged in its presence!

“No!!!”

The Star Abyss Tyrant let out a shrill, agonizing scream.

It discovered in horror that the origin laws it had released had actually become the nourishment to feed that Singularity!

Not only that, but the Singularity that had sucked the annihilating void dry was now moving at a speed that seemed slow but transcended the concept of space. It ignored all high-dimensional shields surrounding its massive body and plunged straight into its giant shadow form, which was pieced together from countless star cores!

“Click.”

An extremely faint, crisp sound, like something being unlocked, echoed from within the Star Abyss Tyrant.

Chen Xi's right hand, now only white bone, hung down weakly. On his blood-stained face, a smile bloomed—one of relief, yet also bloodthirsty and arrogant to the extreme.

“Blow up.”
