Chapter 101: The entire universe will face a catastrophe
Tang Yun looked at the teetering Gene Tree, his heart filled with reluctance.
He knew that once the Gene Tree collapsed, the entire universe would face a catastrophe.
"No, I can't leave!" Tang Yun gritted his teeth; he had to stop the collapse of the Gene Tree.
Tang Yun mobilized the remaining Chaos Medical Qi in his body and injected it all into the Gene Tree.
The golden light shone again, and the trembling of the Gene Tree weakened slightly, but the cracks became more numerous and deeper.
"It's useless, the Gene Tree has reached its limit; you cannot stop its collapse."
A cold voice suddenly sounded.
Tang Yun turned his head abruptly and saw a figure in a black robe slowly emerging from the void.
This figure was shrouded in darkness, his face unclear, only a pair of blood-red eyes radiating a chilling light.
"Who are you?" Tang Yun asked coldly.
"Who am I? Heh heh, I am the ruler of this universe, and your terminator!"
The black-robed figure let out a sinister laugh.
"Just based on you?" Tang Yun snorted in disdain.
"Just based on me!" The black-robed figure's voice suddenly became sharp and piercing. "I have absorbed all the energy of the Gene Tree; now, I possess the power to destroy everything!"
The black-robed figure suddenly spread his arms, and a terrifying dark energy erupted from within him, instantly sweeping across the entire space.
Tang Yun felt as if he were in a boundless darkness, everything around him becoming blurry.
"Tang Yun!" The exclamations of Tang Tian and Lin Xiyue came from afar.
Tang Yun wanted to respond, but found he could not make a sound at all.
The dark energy constantly eroded his body, making him feel immense pain.
"Give up, you cannot defeat me." The black-robed figure's voice sounded again, filled with mockery and sarcasm.
Tang Yun gritted his teeth, desperately resisting the erosion of the dark energy.
In his mind, Lin Xiyue's smile appeared, the figures of Tang Tian and the Holy Son appeared, and the encouragement of the viewers in the live stream room appeared.
"I cannot give up! I still have things I must protect!"
A raging fire ignited in Tang Yun's heart; he gathered all his power together and let out a roar.
"Ah—"
Golden light erupted again, dispelling the surrounding dark energy.
Tang Yun's figure appeared before everyone again; his face was pale, and there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were incomparably firm.
"You... how is this possible?" The black-robed figure looked at Tang Yun in disbelief; he did not expect Tang Yun to be able to resist his dark energy.
Tang Yun ignored the shock of the black-robed figure; he walked toward the Gene Tree step by step, each step feeling as if it were stepping on the black-robed figure's heart.
"I said, I will not give up!"
Tang Yun extended his right hand, pressed it on the trunk of the Gene Tree, and injected all the remaining Chaos Medical Qi in his body into it.
The golden light shone again, and the cracks in the Gene Tree began to heal slowly.
Seeing this, the black-robed figure's expression changed drastically.
"No! Impossible! You cannot stop me!"
The black-robed figure let out a hysterical roar; he rushed toward Tang Yun, wanting to stop him.
Just then, the Gene Tree suddenly burst into ten thousand rays of golden light, shrouding Tang Yun and the black-robed figure within it.
"Ah—"
The black-robed figure let out a shrill scream; his body began to disintegrate rapidly, turning into black mist and dissipating in the golden light.
And Tang Yun was wrapped in the golden light, slowly rising into the sky.
His body began to change, the golden light gradually merging into his body, and his aura became stronger and stronger.
Tang Tian, Lin Xiyue, and the Holy Son looked at this scene in a daze; they did not know what had happened.
The viewers in the live stream room were also stunned by this scene; the barrage stopped scrolling again, and everyone held their breath.
The golden light lasted for a long time before gradually dissipating, revealing Tang Yun's figure.
At this moment, Tang Yun had completely changed.
He wore a golden robe, a pair of golden wings grew from his back, and he wore a golden crown on his head, like a heavenly god descending.
A powerful pressure emanated from him, making Tang Tian, Lin Xiyue, and the Holy Son feel suffocated.
"This... is..." Tang Tian murmured to himself, his eyes full of shock and disbelief.
Lin Xiyue was also stunned; she looked at Tang Yun, her heart filled with confusion and unease.
"He... has he become a god?" The Holy Son could not believe his eyes.
The viewers in the live stream room were also stunned by this scene; the barrage erupted again.
"Holy crap! The streamer has become a god!"
"This is too awesome! Simply a miracle!"
"Streamer, you are our eternal god!"
Tang Yun slowly opened his eyes; his eyes were no longer gold, but had turned into a brilliant seven-colored hue, as if containing the mysteries of the universe.
He looked down at his hands, feeling the surging power in his body, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"I... finally did it."
Just then, a voice suddenly sounded in Tang Yun's mind.
"Congratulations, you have become the new ruler of the universe."
Tang Yun frowned slightly; this sudden voice made him somewhat uncomfortable.
"Ruler of the universe? What does that mean?"
The voice sounded again, carrying a trace of a smile. "Literally, you now possess the power to control the entire universe."
"Control the universe?" Tang Yun looked around, seeing the still devastated world, and could not help but smile self-deprecatingly.
"This broken place is the universe? I thought it would be more spectacular."
"What you see is only the tip of the iceberg of the universe."
The voice explained, "Where you are now is a planet eroded by dark forces, and you are the savior chosen to save it."
Tang Yun curled his lips. "Savior? This title is too cliché. Besides, why should I save it? I don't even know it."
"No, you know it." The voice suddenly became serious. "This planet is your hometown."
Tang Yun was stunned. Hometown? He tried hard to recall, but found his memory was a blank slate; he could not remember anything about his hometown at all.
"My memory..." Tang Yun murmured to himself.
"Your memory was sealed by the dark forces." The voice explained. "Only when you fully master the power of the universe can you unlock the seal."
Tang Yun was silent for a moment, then raised his head, his eyes filled with firmness.
"Fine, I accept this challenge. I will unlock the seal, retrieve my memory, and save my hometown!"
Just then, the leader of the dark forces let out a sharp whistle.
His seemingly injured body actually healed rapidly, and the surrounding dark energy, as if summoned, frantically converged toward him. ===== CHAPTER 102 =====
