Chapter 351: Singularity Ruins — at last, the gate appears!

Sun Wukong stepped forward, and his figure had already returned to Yao's side.

Yao's complexion was as pale as paper, as if it could be blown away by the wind at any moment.

But her eyes, which had originally been dim, now shone astonishingly bright!

Like two stars blazing fiercely in the darkness!

"I've caught it!"

Her voice was weak, yet it carried an uncontainable excitement!

As soon as her words fell!

In the void before them, a brilliant star map woven from billions of dream-realm light threads slowly unfurled.

This star map, vast and boundless, encompassed the entire multiverse.

Most areas of the star map were dim and lightless, representing worlds that had already suffered silent extinction or were now sinking into decline.

Only!

At the very edge of the star map, in an inconspicuous corner,

a point lit up!

That wasn't starlight!

It was a point, as small as a needle tip, of ultimate blackness!

It was so pure that not even light could escape—an absolute "nothing"!

It simply existed there, abrupt and out of place.

It was not any known star region.

Nor was it any definable dimensional space.

It was more like, on the grand tapestry of the universe, a ferocious "hole" burned in by a branding iron!

An ancient "scar" that had existed since before the creation of the world!

Sun Wukong's blood-red eyes stared fixedly, fixedly, at that "hole"!

No words were needed!

No deduction was needed!

He could clearly feel it!

That feeling that haunted his soul and drove him to madness—his master's "sense of withered desolation",

whose ultimate source was seeping faintly from within that "hole"!

There!

was the final prison that sealed his master's Dao Heart!

"This is the place!"

Sun Wukong's voice trembled slightly from extreme excitement and overwhelming killing intent!

Each word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, one by one!

Yao withdrew the dream net that had already begun to turn illusory.

Her body swayed, and she weakly leaned against Sun Wukong's broad arms, her voice soft yet utterly certain.

"That place……should be the legendary 'primordial singularity' before the birth of the universe, the sole thing left after the explosion……"

"Ruins!"

"Primordial singularity!"

"The origin of the universe!"

"The source of all things!"

That damned bastard actually hid Master in such a place!

"Good!"

"Very good!"

Sun Wukong no longer had the slightest hesitation!

He extended a finger and touched Yao's forehead.

A stream of pure, ultimate power, filled with domineering vitality from the Way of the Equal Heaven's primordial source, instantly passed over.

Yao's pallid cheeks, as white as paper, quickly regained a hint of color.

Her withering Dao foundation also renewed its vitality.

"Hold on tight!"

Sun Wukong let out a low growl, wrapped his arm around her, and firmly held Yao's soft waist against his chest.

His other hand tightly gripped the gray-white iron staff.

The power within him surged frenziedly, like billions of volcanoes on the verge of eruption!

He pointed at the dark coordinate point in the void that represented the "Singularity Ruins".

He ruthlessly slashed forward!

Screech—!

A piercing sound that seemed capable of tearing apart the divine soul!

The space before them was like a fragile cloth, being torn open by an invisible, sharp pair of scissors!

A massive, bottomless spatial rift appeared, ferociously!

Behind the rift was not a brilliant river of stars.

But a expanse of chaos that made one's scalp tingle at a glance!

Time, space, law, cause and effect…

Everything was there, stirred into a pot, boiling, chaotic paste!

The endless chaos turbulence, like a shark smelling blood, surged wildly toward the rift!

That terrifying energy, capable of instantly tearing a quasi‑saint to shreds, could not even budge the thin golden protective light within three feet of Sun Wukong!

"Go!"

Sun Wukong shielded Yao in his arms, without a hint of hesitation, and stepped right in!

His silhouette was instantly swallowed whole by the violent chaos turbulence!

……

This was a passage that could not be measured by time.

Within this chaos turbulence, distance and time lost all meaning.

It might have been an instant.

Or it might have been billions of years.

Sun Wukong relied only on the faint sensation from his master's Dao heart,

Like a lone boat sailing through endless darkness, he steadfastly charged straight toward that sole direction!

Finally!

No one knew how long had passed.

Before them, the violent, chaotic scene suddenly cleared!

It was as if they had burst through a heavy water curtain, shooting out of the chaos turbulence!

A vast, deathly silent ruin stretched before their eyes!

Here, there was no life.

Here, there was no matter.

Only enormous, unimaginable black debris floated in the void.

Those debris had a glass‑like texture.

Their surfaces were covered in cracks, dense as a spider's web.

They seemed to be the fragments of some indescribable existence, shattered at the very beginning and left behind.

An ancient, desolate, deathly silent aura filled every corner of this space.

This is……

The ruins of the primordial singularity!

Sun Wukong's blood‑red eyes darted wildly across the ruin, trying to locate his master's Dao heart at once!

However!

Just as they took in the ruin's scene, the next moment—

A cold, mechanical voice, devoid of any emotion, yet eerily familiar to Sun Wukong and Yao,

that both felt incredibly familiar, suddenly rang out in this absolutely deathly silent ruin!

That voice seemed to come from all directions.

And it seemed to explode directly in the depths of their divine souls!

【Warning!】

【Unauthorized lifeform detected, intruding into the 'First Graveyard'……】

【Threat level: Maximum!】

【Purging procedure……】

【Activated!】

Boom——!!

The instant the voice fell!

The entire singularity ruin shuddered violently!

Those massive black debris, previously drifting silently in the void, seemed to come alive all at once!

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Countless black debris began to crack and reassemble on their surfaces!

In a series of grating metal screeches, they rapidly deformed and combined into one after another,

towering tens of thousands of feet tall, pitch‑black, hideously shaped war puppets!

Each puppet's body was covered in countless scarlet‑glowing cannon muzzles!

In an instant!

Thousands!

Tens of thousands!

Hundreds of thousands of war puppets sprang up from every corner of the ruin!

Their hollow eyes, glowing scarlet, locked in unison onto Sun Wukong and Yao!

A freezing, pure killing intent, existing only to erase, surged like a tangible tide from all directions!

Sun Wukong's pupils contracted in an instant to the most dangerous pinpricks!

He stared fixedly at the endless sea of iron troops!

That voice!

That tone of speech!

Damn it!

Isn't that the very 'gray civilization' he himself created to fight Hongjun!

That which has already become the Master's prison, the central AI of the Blue Star Federation...

Pangu!!!
