Chapter 1706: Power of Negation

~7 min read 1,338 words

"They also entered that world!"

Almost the instant the roaring sounds of battle disappeared, Black Spades J, who had been constantly observing the battlefield on the distant street, immediately spoke.

Han Meng similarly saw this scene. He took out a piece of glass he had prepared long ago and shined it toward the direction where the two disappeared. Sure enough, in the reflection of the glass, one could vaguely see two figures sweeping across the sky one after the other.

Chen Ling had already heard of the existence of the Imaginary Number World from Han Meng beforehand. Therefore, when he was forcefully dragged into this world, he didn't panic too much. Instead, he immediately chose to avoid those bricks and stones piled up by formulas on the ground, his figure soaring into the air in the void.

And not far behind him, that weak figure in a monk robe half-kneeling on the ground raised his hand and pointed at Chen Ling from afar.

Buzz——!!

Lines of formulas prepared long ago were activated one after another, turning into countless streams of light, surrounding Chen Ling!

Those Rank 8 combat powers that were dragged into the Imaginary Number World previously were killed in battle one after another under the siege of these formulas. After all, in front of the absolute power capable of tampering with physical rules, the vast majority of abilities would not have any effect.

Moreover, there were simply too many of these formulas. If one or two lines of formula couldn't kill, then use seven lines, eight lines... Not everyone understood mathematics. They might not even know what exactly these formulas changed before dying under the drastically changed rules.

Right at the instant those formulas were about to submerge Chen Ling, he opened his lips:

"[Cut]——!"

In an instant, a domain power that negated everything spread around Chen Ling.

The entire world seemed to stagnate under Chen Ling's ability. Those mathematical formulas flying from all directions were like signs embedded in the void, motionless... Under this kind of situation, Chen Ling could even clearly see the symbols of every single line of formula.

However, seeing them clearly was one thing. With Chen Ling's educational background, he couldn't even understand one-tenth of these formulas.

But to Chen Ling, this was already enough.

As Chen Ling's thoughts stirred, everything that happened just now turned into a text script scrolling before his eyes. Chen Ling continuously flipped upward and, sure enough, found lines of complex mathematical formulas.

Chen Ling's [Cut] could casually negate reality and falsify reality. As long as he could clearly see the composition of these formulas, naturally he could also...

Falsify the formulas.

[Fate Weaving]!

Chen Ling was like a true director-screenwriter holding the pen tip that falsified the world. He altered those formulas flying toward him, erasing every single Universal Constant within them!

This was Chen Ling's domain, the Calamity of Mockery's most powerful core ability, the most direct and pure power of "negation"!

After Chen Ling crossed out all the Universal Constants of these few lines of formulas around him, the world continued to operate. As the Lord of Spirit Void raised a finger, a large number of formulas flew toward that black and red figure soaring in the air!

Following closely, the Lord of Spirit Void seemed to have noticed something, and his gaze condensed.

As those formulas approached Chen Ling, they faded at a speed visible to the naked eye. The rules contained within them were not changed by the Universal Constants. It was as if some invisible power of negation directly erased the Lord of Spirit Void's ability!

The black and red figure twisted in the air, turning into a bolt of lightning, and actually took the initiative to rush toward the Lord of Spirit Void!

Having experienced so many battles, this was the first time the Lord of Spirit Void encountered an enemy who could ignore the wash of his formulas and even launch an attack toward him!

Seeing this scene, speckles of glimmer surfaced in the Lord of Spirit Void's exhausted pupils.

"It seems these methods of yours have no effect on me."

Chen Ling spoke coldly.

The glimmer in the Lord of Spirit Void's eyes was once again replaced by profundity. He looked at the speeding Chen Ling and spoke indifferently, "That's not necessarily true..."

"If you were a true Rank 9 Calamity of Mockery, I indeed wouldn't be able to do anything about your Power of Negation... But right now, you are still lacking a bit."

The Lord of Spirit Void raised his hand and pointed at Chen Ling again.

Bang——!!

In the next second, large swathes of bricks and walls soared into the air. Over a hundred lines of formulas were fully activated at this moment, like a sun-and-sky-blotting hail of bullets, rushing toward Chen Ling!

The formulas that encircled Chen Ling previously numbered only around ten. Now, the formulas activated by the Lord of Spirit Void were a full ten-plus times that of just now. This scale was even more than the torrent of formulas that almost killed the Lord of Wuji before.

This torrent of formulas shuttled around Chen Ling. Even though Chen Ling activated his domain again, continuously negating the Universal Constants within, Chen Ling was after all only infinitely approaching a Demigod. His speed of negation was not as fast as the speed of the formula siege. Occasionally, there were still a few formulas he couldn't modify in time, roaring and rushing toward his body.

Boom, boom, boom, boom——!!!

Continuous explosions sounded from the Imaginary Number World. Chen Ling's figure instantly burst out several blobs of blood mist, becoming torn and broken. But in the next second, a massive amount of red paper began filling his body, sweeping up monstrous killing intent, forcefully shuttling through the torrent of formulas!

At the same time, in the ruins of the Spirit Void Domain.

"Are you done yet?"

Han Meng stood on the Clock Tower, relying on the glass reflection to clearly see Chen Ling's situation in the Imaginary Number World, his brows tightly furrowed... He looked to the side and spoke anxiously.

On the other side of the Clock Tower, Black Spades J took off his monocle and aimed it right at the blood-colored sky...

Within the reflection of the monocle, Black Spades J's dark red shadow was clearly reflected.

"A complex game... requires time."

Black Spades J responded in a deep voice.

If one carefully observed Black Spades J and the reflection in his monocle right now, they would discover that card phantoms of "Rock", "Paper", and "Scissors" were constantly flashing behind them. Except the rock-paper-scissors they were currently playing was not quite the same as the traditional game. Every card face was divided into three grades: "White Iron", "Gold", and "Obsidian", and the corners of card faces of different grades also carried different costs...

At the same time, there was also a total limit on cards, a turn-based countdown, and even shattering and recombination between cards... A dizzying array of rules converged in a simple "rock-paper-scissors", forcefully turning it into another complex game requiring massive calculations.

And at this moment, Black Spades J was playing a game of wits against himself in the monocle!

Han Meng couldn't understand what Black Spades J was doing and could only return his gaze back to the glass in his hand. In the Imaginary Number World, a figure seemingly human yet not rushed out from the sky-filling explosions, gripping the Bone-Stripping Knife, roaringly slashing toward the Lord of Spirit Void's figure!

The Bone-Stripping Knife slashed across the air. Following the stirring of the Lord of Spirit Void's thoughts, its speed slowed down, and as Chen Ling negated the Universal Constant, its speed returned to normal again...

The Lord of Spirit Void draped in a monk robe could only flash his figure, and a blood-colored full moon sufficient to chop down a small half of the domain brushed past the Lord of Spirit Void's body and flew by!
