Chapter 602

A brilliant light erupted from the subspace, and then this light quickly turned into a torrent and swept toward the surroundings, finally dissipating when it flowed to the core domain of the four Evil Gods.

At the core of that brilliant light, the bird-shaped demon god and the bloated demon god were scorched black, and their bodies were evaporated by more than half. But strangely, as the light dissipated, their bodies were healing at an incredible speed. This healing was not even the invincible special effect they obtained by relying on the subspace, but a fact that happened naturally.

"This... this is!?"

"... What on earth are we..."

The worldviews of the two demon gods were almost broken, along with the Slaanesh core held by Wu Pifu, which was struggling violently.

"This is your power, that's why I call you weak ones, non-humans!"

Wu Pifu appeared in the light, no longer in the infinite form that seemed to fill the universe, just a simple Hero Race body, as if everything just now was fake.

One second later, the two demon gods had completely recovered, with only a few slight black marks on their bodies. However, relative to them, the subspace demons that were rushing toward the Emperor who was guarding the Earth in this subspace were cleared out in a large wave. These demons did not recover or resurrect, but were really directly eliminated by this white light.

"This is your trick, it's nothing more than this being your home field, so the fakes you create will be preserved for a longer time, and then as long as the vast majority of other sentient lives think it is real, it will become real in this subspace. This is your mind-phase, this is the truth of the subspace. But I am not affected, so even if you imagine the destruction of the universe, it has nothing to do with me. Otherwise? Use your heads to hit my blade?"

While Wu Pifu was speaking, he lifted his blade and went up again, slashing wildly around the two giant demon gods, cutting the two giant demon gods until they were bloody and bruised, and their whole bodies were slashed thousands of times. Although they were healing rapidly, Wu Pifu's damage was real damage. As long as they were hit within five steps, annihilation was true annihilation. It was just that the subspace volume was huge enough to allow them to keep healing and recovering.

However, this time, the two demon gods let Wu Pifu attack constantly, and they actually stood still, not even the Slaanesh core held by Wu Pifu stopped struggling. For a time, the atmosphere was very strange.

Wu Pifu still didn't speak, just attacked frantically. Finally, the two demon gods suddenly exploded with a bang and disappeared, along with the Slaanesh core, which also exploded and dissipated. All three disappeared from Wu Pifu's attack range.

Seeing this, Wu Pifu also stopped his blade and stood still on the spot.

"... Why tell them the truth about this subspace?"

The Emperor's voice sounded, still with anxiety and blame: "Isn't it good to let them be blinded and consume their essence? You told them, and it immediately made them burn their bridges! They just didn't know, once they knew, they were the four Great Evil Gods after all, and they had determination and courage!"

"That's even better!"

Wu Pifu shouted loudly and decisively: "If you don't kill a strong enemy, how can you win? Just killing the bodies they imagined, how many days will you and I have to kill? Dozens of days? Or hundreds of days? When the source of the subspace really emerges, its essence is still preserved a lot, and you and I go to fight with our heads? It's better to force them to use the true essence of the subspace now, kill one when one comes. If we are not enemies, you and I can also kill to our heart's content. At worst, we will be beaten to death, but we must splash blood on them!"

The Emperor was stunned and said repeatedly: "You, you, you are too reckless, aren't you?"

Wu Pifu chuckled: "I don't have your patience, your high awareness, so you are the Emperor, you are a great man, you can watch human development quietly for tens of thousands of years, you can also rise up to lead humanity to counterattack, and you can even sit in the Golden Throne for ten thousand years. I can't do it. I am just a mere Pifu. You want to talk to me about ten thousand years? No, I only fight for the morning and evening! Today..."

"If we don't win, then let us die on the road of charging!"

While speaking, Wu Pifu held his blade horizontally and looked toward the three directions of the subspace.

While Wu Pifu was talking to the Emperor, the core territories of Tzeentch, Nurgle, and Slaanesh also changed.

These three core territories were their respective rule domains, the places where their respective rules were manifested in the subspace, named Crystal Labyrinth, Plague Garden, and Palace of Pleasure, respectively. There was still one not present, still shrinking and recovering in the material universe, Khorne, whose core territory was named Brass Fortress.

For a long time, the core territories of the four Great Evil Gods were forbidden areas in the subspace, and all existences who knew about these four core territories, including the Emperor and the four Great Evil Gods themselves, only thought that these four territories were the manifestation of their great authority.

But until this moment, the three evil gods, the Emperor, and all subspace existences knew that the core territories of the evil gods were not just the manifestation of authority, but the true essence of their power in the subspace!

The three major territories began to dissolve, but did not disappear, but solidified and wriggled, finally mixing into one. The demons, souls, and various essences in these territories all merged together, finally manifesting three giant demons.

A bloated and rotten flesh fungus, a collection of bird wings and bird beaks with sharp teeth and no head or tail, and a long wriggling piece of meat that seemed to be a snake, a beautiful woman, and a muscular man, each a thousand meters tall. Compared with the previous demon god bodies, they were not eye-catching at all, but the moment they appeared, three subspace hurricane cores began to appear, and a vast amount of subspace essence began to gather toward these three points, and the speed of absorbing subspace essence was second only to the black hole transformed by the Spiritual Civilization.

Seeing this scene, the Emperor was silent, and then he laughed loudly: "Good, good, good, the subspace that never changes, actually has such a day... No matter what the result is, just this appearance, the subspace will never be complete in this world again. At most, the material world and the subspace will each take half. In this way, even if you and I are both dead, this battle is not a loss!"

Wu Pifu said: "Just the three of them want me dead? It's still too early!"

The Emperor nodded in agreement: "That's right, they are just three of the eight expression faces of the subspace. Adding Khorne, it's only four of them. The true source of the subspace hasn't emerged yet, why should we die? So... I take one, you take two?"

"Good!"

Wu Pifu looked left and right, chuckled, and ran toward Slaanesh with his blade.

The sun symbolizing the Emperor suddenly shrank, and a Golden Throne emerged from the sun, followed by infinite heroic spirits, including Space Marines and ordinary humans, seemingly turning into a torrent of humanity. An old man holding a long staff bowed and said: "Your Majesty, is it the final moment?"

"Malcador..." The Emperor murmured.

Another handsome man with wings on his back flew down: "Father, is it the final battle?"

"Sanguinius..." The Emperor said in a trance.

Countless giants taller than Space Marines walked over: "Your Majesty, is our sacrifice valuable?"

"Thunder..." The Emperor lowered his head with tears in his eyes.

Countless Space Marines, countless ordinary humans, countless ordinary people, they raised their hands and swarmed over: "Your Majesty, do we still have hope? Can we still win? Will our descendants still be threatened by the subspace?"

The Emperor looked up, light appeared in his eyes, and he said the words he had said ten thousand years ago with the firmest tone.

"I swear..."

"I will win!"

The torrent of humanity accompanied the Golden Throne, and merged with the sun, and a golden-armored humanoid figure a thousand meters tall emerged.

The golden-armored humanoid figure also looked left and right, and then rushed toward the rotten fungus.

At the same time, Wu Pifu had approached Slaanesh. Before he got close, a snake tail in Slaanesh's flesh and blood shook, and a spike smashed toward Wu Pifu.

Wu Pifu blocked with his blade, and a majestic giant force enough to shatter stars hit the blade. In one strike, Wu Pifu's arms burst, and the whole person was blasted back, retreating for dozens of seconds before gradually stopping. His arms were already bloody, although they healed in an instant, but this was real and undeniable power, not a brain-game of "circling the land to be cute."

"Hahaha, this is enough!"

Wu Pifu laughed, continued to rush up, and fought dozens of blades against this snake tail spike, finally seizing the opportunity to chop it off with one blade. The entire snake tail exploded and annihilated. At the same time, the piece of meat that made up Slaanesh had completely finished taking shape, and a thousand-meter-tall, beautiful humanoid figure that looked both male and female finally emerged.

"Otherworlder brother, thanks to you, I finally know my true self today, so..."

Slaanesh smiled sweetly, holding a spike in each hand, with blue light faintly visible on the spikes, obviously carrying some kind of poison.

"... Let me repay you and let you ascend to ultimate bliss!"

Slaanesh came to meet him, and Wu Pifu also rushed up with his blade. The broken blade and the spike collided. There was no star birth and death, and no destruction of heaven and earth, but it was this collision that truly revealed his true colors!

Wu Pifu had completely understood what a sublimated body was and what a Source was... perhaps it did not include all Sources, such as the 0.2 life Seven Deadly Sins level Source, or the 0.1 level Source of the First Immortal and First Buddha, but at least he understood what the 0.3 level Source was!

The so-called sublimated body is the self-perfection of a life form.

Maybe this is not vivid enough. To put it in a more vivid and concrete way, the so-called self-perfection is... My Dao!!

Taking Wu Pifu's Tiger Demon Skill as an example, its upgrade direction is from the first threshold, to entering the hall, to reaching perfection, to reaching the peak, until finally achieving the Supreme Manifest Saint. And when he reached the Supreme Manifest Saint, he had actually reached the limit. There was no way to go further unless he obtained sublimation!

Wu Pifu's Tiger Demon Skill sublimated from the Supreme Manifest Saint.

"My Dao, surpassing the theoretical limit, creating my own path."

This is the sublimation beyond the limit of the Tiger Demon Skill, and this is actually the ladder of sublimation!

But the Tiger Demon Skill is only one of the countless martial arts in martial arts, not the whole of the extraordinary path of martial arts, so it cannot rely on the Tiger Demon Skill to push martial arts beyond the limit, so in the end, only this skill broke the limit.

A true sublimated body is the sublimation of an extraordinary path after reaching the limit, the self-perfection of a life form. For example, if Wu Pifu's martial arts surpassed "Seeing the Body Indestructible" and sublimated another layer, then he could achieve a sublimated body by relying on martial arts.

This is the sublimated body, the self-perfection of a life form, forming a system by itself, itself is one, itself is the beginning, itself is a circle!

Of course, this is small perfection, the self-perfection belonging to a life form, not yet reaching great perfection, not yet able to do without external help, absolute self, but it can also produce huge resistance to all non-self pollution, erosion, distortion, or the infinite cycle and self-closed loop of the Source.

And as for the Source...

Merging with the Dao, Dao-dyeing the universe!

For non-sublimated bodies, the Source is unsolvable, because the Source can easily include it in the infinite cycle and perfect closed loop, making all non-sublimated bodies become brains in a vat in the Dao-dyeing universe of the Source!

This is also why in the Lost Lands, people from lost forces all say that they can only fight across one rank, such as mortals fighting sublimated bodies, and sublimated bodies fighting the Source, because mortals cannot break the fourth wall brought by the Source at all. This is also the reason why Wu Pifu's strength could clearly defeat a sublimated body at the time, but once he encountered pollution at the Source level, even a tiny bit, he almost died.

Dimensional energy suppression, strength numbers are useless!

And if it is changed to a sublimated body fighting the Source, the Source can only rely on its true self to bombard it to death. Whoever has stronger power wins. There is no situation where the Source can crush a sublimated body with one thought.

But in most cases, the Source can still crush a sublimated body because the volume gap between them is too large. The sublimated body is still the accumulation of individuals, but once the Source Dao-izes, it can immediately use the world as resources, easily Dao-dyeing the world, and turning the heaven, earth, and all things in it into brains in a vat in the infinite cycle and self-closed loop of the Source. In the same time and state, the resources the Source can absorb are ten thousand times more than the sublimated body!

Therefore, Mortal—Sublimated Body—Source, these three major ranks still belong to the absolute rank suppression under the entire Dream World system, unless there are extremely rare individual cases...

Supreme Path Sublimated Body!

Being able to learn multiple extraordinary paths without hindrance, and once each extraordinary path sublimates, it can immediately condense sublimation characteristics, and multiple sublimation characteristics plus multiple extraordinary paths can be stacked and reinforced. If this kind of stacking and reinforcement is collected, it is not just a simple qualitative change in numbers!

Rule complementarity, numerical multiplication, the changes brought about are truly qualitative changes!

And coincidentally... Wu Pifu is the seed of the Supreme Path!

"Monster! I saw at a glance that you are not human! Hmph! Little tricks, dare to show off in front of me?"

Wu Pifu roared with inexplicable meaning, one hand presented a palm, dragon-shaped Qi burst out, and the other hand held the blade and pushed forward.

Under the palm blade, Slaanesh's arm broke, and Wu Pifu slashed at his chest with one blade.

But at the same time, a bird claw suddenly flashed, and also pierced into Wu Pifu's belly from his back.

Slaanesh was severely injured, Tzeentch ambushed!
