Chapter 1035: "Limitless"

~7 min read 1,342 words

"Limitless"

Every biological creature possesses intrinsic boundaries.

These boundaries originate from innate nature, or perhaps from the will of nature itself. For example, although humans are intelligent and possess high wisdom, their lifespan limit is only about a hundred years; although turtles live long, their movements are sluggish and their intelligence is low; cockroaches possess super regeneration and rapid reproduction, but their maximum size is no larger than a palm... This kind of "restriction" is like a cage that imprisons all organic life. While granting them a certain characteristic, it also leaves behind drawbacks.

But right now... Lou Yu's Life Boundary had already been broken by his own hands.

From this moment on, Lou Yu clearly felt the changes in himself. His material body was limitless due to Material Science, and his soul ego was transcended due to the Philosopher's Stones!

Beginning from crossing the heavenly chasm of the biological boundary, Lou Yu had already divorced himself from the category of "biology" and transformed into a special existence that ordinary people could not understand.

Su Zhiwei, who was close at hand, also faintly felt Lou Yu's changes. Her brows furrowed slightly, but her movements did not stagnate in the slightest... She pushed the surrounding "Strings" to the extreme, closing in on Lou Yu's face. In the instant Lou Yu swallowed the sixth Philosopher's Stone, she struck out a full-force palm!

Countless "Strings" surged like ocean waves, instantly annihilating the majority of Lou Yu's body, without even leaving behind the slightest bit of flesh, blood, or bone fragments. That was a dissipation from the microscopic level...

Lou Yu's remaining half of a head was grabbed in Su Zhiwei's hand. He felt Su Zhiwei's Killing Intent, yet there was not half a bit of fear in his eyes. Instead, he calmly gazed at Su Zhiwei.

Two figures rapidly streaked across the sky. Su Zhiwei made up her mind. With a forceful shock of her aura, the surrounding "Strings" rapidly tumbled like a millstone, directly grinding the head of Lou Yu in her hand completely into nothingness as well!

Boom——!!!

The white-clothed beautiful silhouette smashed into the earth like a meteor. The terrifying power directly annihilated the ground into nothingness.

Rolling dust rose up. The aura belonging to the Lord of the Red Dust tumbled in the air, while Lou Yu's aura had already completely disappeared. Su Zhiwei maintained the posture of crushing the head as she stood amidst the ruins. Her expression didn't ease up in the slightest, but instead became even more solemn.

A long while later, Su Zhiwei seemed to perceive something...

Amidst the dust, she suddenly turned her head.

...

Tianshu Domain, several streets away.

Numerous figures crowded nervously on the main street, gazing from afar at that Alchemy Array that was about to fade away...

The sudden attack from the Lord of Wuji had frightened almost all the residents of the Tianshu Domain silly. Especially when the "Star Cluster" of the Lord of Tianshu was crushed by the Lord of Wuji, despair had even risen in their hearts. But the sudden appearance and attack from the Lord of the Red Dust gave them new hope.

Rolling thick smoke rose from the blocks at the edge. The terrifying Oppressive Aura of the clash between two Nine Monarchs still seemed to remain in the air. At this moment, everyone nervously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"... Who won?"

"It should be the Lord of the Red Dust who won, right? Just now I seem to have seen the Lord of Wuji's body being scattered."

"Great!!!"

"Scared me to death, just now I thought this Realm was finished..."

"Who isn't? That dog Lord of Wuji destroyed two blocks at once, and even scattered the Star Cluster left behind by the Lord of Tianshu. If the Lord of the Red Dust hadn't taken action, we probably all would have died by his hands..."

"Good riddance!! Good riddance!!!"

"..."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief one after another, and began to incessantly curse the Lord of Wuji, using this to vent the anger and fear in their hearts.

No one noticed that on a brick wall not far behind everyone, a bizarre scarlet hexagonal marking was slowly being sketched out... That marking appeared without any warning, just like a ghost silently crossing space and possessing this wall.

As the hexagonal marking gradually protruded, the outline of a figure formed from bricks also surfaced right after. The skin, hair, four limbs, and even the eyeballs were formed from bricks. It was like a brick man stepping out from the wall. The hexagonal marking rested at its glabella, painting an indescribably bizarre picture.

After he took a step out from the wall, the brick body began to gradually transform. Countless material reactions surged within his body!

With the first step taken, his body density instantly expanded fifty times from the 2100kg/m³ of the bricks;

With the second step taken, the surface of his body transformed from rough bricks into a flexible material resembling human skin, even presenting the unique pores and luster of humans. At the same time, his eyeballs began to transform into normal human eyeballs, and his facial features also rapidly underwent Reshaping.

With the third step taken, loose black clothing precipitated from his body. His entire person had already changed from the brick man just now into "Lou Yu".

His heavy footsteps crushed the ground, emitting a muffled sound. The cheering crowd blankly turned their heads to look back. Seeing Lou Yu stepping out from the red brick wall, their gazes collectively went dull...

After a brief silence, they let out sharp, explosive screams, and then frantically fled in all directions like crazy!

"Is this the 'Limitless' that solely belongs to me..."

Lou Yu looked at his hands, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Lou Yu was very clear that his power originated from Material Science. He could casually transform the fundamental properties of matter, which also included his own body... As long as he wanted to, he could completely turn himself into a mobile super nuclear power plant, or even a true sun. But the problem lay in that he had to guarantee he could turn back to his original state after unleashing his body, otherwise it would be no different from self-destructing.

And the Philosopher's Stones perfectly solved this problem. The Philosopher's Stones could carry his soul. Even if his body disappeared, he could wander the mortal world in the form of a soul. But for the vast majority of alchemists, this characteristic of the Philosopher's Stone was actually very useless... After all, once a person died, turning into a ghost to remain in the world forever without possessing a physical body, what meaning was there?

But it was different for Lou Yu. As long as his soul was still present, he could use Material Science to Reshape a body for himself at any time. He could be reborn in a grain of sand, a drop of water, a piece of cotton batting, or even a cloud of methane gas. He could casually discard his material body and remodel it into any appearance. If he used it up, he could just change it... As long as matter existed within the range his soul could reach, he was immortal and imperishable!

This was the combination of Material Science and the Philosopher's Stone. It was the dual pinnacle of matter and spirit. It was the "Limitless" in this world that solely belonged to Lou Yu!

"The Lord of Wuji... It's the Lord of Wuji!!!"

"He actually didn't die?! When did he appear here?!"

"The God of Slaughter is here! Run quickly!!!!"

"..."

Noisy and terrified shouts came from all directions. Due to Lou Yu's appearance, the entire block thoroughly fell into turmoil.

Everyone had seen the scene of Lou Yu insta-killing two blocks. With this God of Slaughter appearing here, their little lives would probably not be guaranteed either... Despair and terror invaded everyone's brains. They frantically evaded, as if a demon was chasing behind them.
