Chapter 1156: Destructive Catastrophe (Thanks to Tiantian Tianqing for the Silver Alliance donation to Klein)

With the clenching of one of the arms on Lu Mian's right side, the void in front of him collapsed in its entirety, reaching the end of the world, forming a chaotic vortex containing all colors and all possibilities.

Just as "Apocalypse" is superior to "Disaster," "Chaos" is also superior to "Apocalypse":

"Disaster" causes the overall collapse of a system, "Apocalypse" deepens this catastrophic collapse into a total explosion of contradictions, making all things entangled and return to one, while "Chaos" represents the "One" of returning to one, representing the ending after the total explosion.

Therefore, the "Chaos" of the "Demoness of Chaos" cannot be used directly on a relatively stable and balanced target; it must first create a catastrophic collapse in a designated area, let the contradictions explode totally, form a substantial chaotic vortex, and then it can spread outward, affecting the target.

As soon as the vortex containing all colors appeared, it immediately spread toward that "Evil Dragon."

It touched the formless barrier and failed to directly touch the "Evil Dragon's" giant body.

This was a manifestation of the seal. The "Evil Dragon" could not create disasters or launch attacks in the area it occupied and where the iron-black chains extended, otherwise it would have long ago destroyed the dragon-locking chains through self-mutilation, thereby returning to the "Ocean"—anyway, as long as it had a remnant of flame, it could reshape its body.

This limited the "Evil Dragon," and also limited Lu Mian.

The chaotic vortex stirred the formless barrier rapidly, pulling them in to accommodate, tearing them apart, and swallowing them, but the power of the formless barrier seemed endless, showing no signs of failing in the short term.

Around the Dragon-Locking Well, the high-level beings of the Western Continent like the "Celestial Master" and "Holy Monk" used their own abilities one after another, releasing the coupling layer by layer, allowing the overall seal to appear with a gap at the place of Lu Mian's attack.

The chaotic vortex rapidly broke through the formless barrier and spread onto the "Evil Dragon's" giant body.

On the surface of the chains locking that part of the body, the "evil ghosts" turned from reliefs saw the chaos about to swallow them. Not only were they not angry, but they were full of joy. They all straightened their backs and raised their heads, with pride and liberation showing through their green faces, fangs, bones, and pus.

The vortex containing all possibilities swept them in, causing them to collapse rapidly and disappear without a trace.

More than a dozen dragon-locking chains broke and fell into the chaos.

That part of the "Evil Dragon's" body was also torn apart, and in the situation of losing the fixation of the dragon-locking chains, it ignited with the pitch-black flames that bound madness, bound destruction, and bound chaos.

This large area of pitch-black flames then collided with the spreading chaos, and the entire blood-colored ocean instantly lost light, sound, and movement.

Both were annihilated simultaneously.

Lu Mian was about to take advantage of the successful strike to bring down disaster, welcome the apocalypse, and launch wave after wave of war when a crazy intent suddenly surged from the depths of his spirit.

The "Occasional" on his body ended ahead of time.

He had lost control and gone crazy!

This was because the Evil Dragon belonged to an incomplete "Source of Calamity." As long as it didn't consciously restrain itself, the corresponding symbol would inevitably affect the surrounding area. And for Lu Mian, his main latent disasters were two: first, his own balance was fragile, and second, he was actually already out of control and crazy, relying on the wish of "Fool" Klein to "occasionally" stay awake. The former had been detonated once just now, and the latter now inevitably brought disaster!

When the head in the middle of Lu Mian lost its reason, its eyes filled with madness, and its expression twisted, the chaotic vortex face in the center of the head on his left shoulder suddenly had two more holes, as if someone had forcibly chiseled out corresponding organs in the eye positions.

This face took over the entire body.

Virtual personality!

A virtual personality from the "Visionary"!

Over the past month, besides adjusting his state, stabilizing his spirit, and providing help to other members of the Tarot Club, the people he still valued, and the protected zone, Lu Mian had been pondering what difficulties he would encounter in the battle with the "Evil Dragon."

Thanks to "Fool" Klein having already awakened and accommodated "Sefirah Castle," having a deeper understanding and mastery of symbols, he also knew what symbols "Source of Calamity" and "Destructive Catastrophe" exactly had, and what impact they would have on him.

Regarding this, he used the "Visionary's" ability to give himself psychological suggestions in advance, implanting a virtual personality. Once the main consciousness lost control and went crazy, the temporary virtual personality would immediately emerge, fuse with the chaotic vortex face representing the "Visionary," and take over the body.

The reason for choosing this face was because only its level and layer could suppress the other faces and suppress the loss of control and madness of the main consciousness.

The virtual personality, basically copied from Lu Mian's main body with only certain differences, had just controlled the crazy instinct when a pitch-black, boundless universe suddenly appeared before his eyes, along with a star larger and brighter than the sun.

The core of that star suddenly collapsed on a large scale, then threw out incomparable light and heat.

An exceptionally hot, unimaginable ocean of light surged out, rushing toward Lu Mian, who was only seconds away.

The head in the middle of Lu Mian laughed wantonly and crazily:

"Is this also a catastrophe?"

…………

At the junction of the Western Continent and the Fog Sea, above the gray-white fog.

The ten-thousand-meter peak resembling a bird's nest on the surface of the blood-red full moon suddenly shook and sank inch by inch.

The stalled fusion began again, just not as fast as when the blood moon first rose.

The tens of billions of Kleins surrounding the moonlight world were "infighting," and some were affecting the "Primordial Demoness" from afar, but they could only play a role of interference.

…………

Somewhere in the ruins of the Southern Continent.

Within an area protected and hidden by a little pollution transmitted by the "Mother Tree of Desire" with the help of the "God of Deceit," the believers of the "Mother Tree of Desire"—some dripping with pus, some with eyes and noses growing in the wrong places, some wearing the shapes of rabbits, thin pigs, or sheep, some suffering from curses and wailing in pain, and some still relatively intact—simultaneously received the intent of Suah and Tieri:

"All come to the altar!

"Haha, the 'Primordial Demoness' is about to succeed. She reached an agreement with the Lord and the 'Original God' to provide us with help after accommodating the 'Mother Tree of Desire'!

"This is what we exchanged for the loss of the 'Shadow Tree'!"

Pop, pop, pop—those believers of the "Mother Tree of Desire," after hearing the name "Primordial Demoness," either suddenly grew multiple reproductive organs, or became blood-red, or their bellies swelled, with fetuses about to tear through flesh and crawl out...

【Author's note: Look at it one by one!】

These Beyonders walked shakily toward the altar.

Suah and Tieri didn't care what state they were in, or rather, the crazy them hadn't thought about this problem at all.

…………

Facing the erupting ocean of light, Lu Mian ignited first.

He turned into formless, colorless flames, then transformed into light.

He met the surging, hot, terrifying ocean of light in the state of sunlight wrapped in flames.

Lu Mian merged into it; the flames on the outer layer extinguished and ignited, ignited and extinguished, while the light consciousness inside collapsed and reunited from time to time.

Supporting until the end of such an eruption, he turned into a chaotic vortex again, absorbing the light and heat around him, and reorganized his body.

Relying on the level, layer, ability, and his connection with light of the chaotic vortex face, Lu Mian barely survived the "catastrophe" just now.

Yes, "Destructive Catastrophe" is a symbol of the entire universe; a supernova explosion is naturally a type of catastrophe!

Similarly, because "Destructive Catastrophe" is a symbol at the level of the entire universe, the range of the "City of Calamity" can be infinitely small or infinitely large.

Immediately following, Lu Mian transformed into light, moving at the speed of light, rushing toward the location of the "Evil Dragon" he sensed.

Just then, a mass of indescribable, deep darkness appeared in the starry sky to his side.

That darkness could not be seen directly, could not be truly perceived, and could only be known to exist through the twisted gas and the slowly rotating disk structure around it.

The light that Lu Mian had turned into could not help but bend toward that mass of darkness, entering the rotating structure formed by dispersed matter.

This was also a type of "catastrophe"!

A true "Destructive Catastrophe"!

Lu Mian knew he only had one way to survive at present, and that was to pass through the gap he had opened earlier as soon as possible and enter the area occupied by the "Evil Dragon."

There, the "Evil Dragon" could not launch attacks or create disasters, otherwise it would have broken free long ago!

As the light bent, Lu Mian suddenly returned to his fire giant form.

The formless flames on his body flew toward the center of the rotating disk structure one by one, and the iron-black bones also followed.

Seizing the brief window of opportunity, the banner mark, fresh and dripping, protruded from the center of the head on his left shoulder.

He was using the "Red Priest's" sacrificial ability, sacrificing to the "Evil Dragon," praying for help!

In a normal state, the "Evil Dragon" would definitely ignore this enemy, but now, Lu Mian had already stripped away the external consciousness, spirit, and tendencies that had merged into it in advance. The current "Evil Dragon" was just a monster acting purely according to divine instinct.

And sacrificing to it to obtain help was an ability engraved in the Beyonder characteristics, engraved in the authority, concepts, and symbols of the "Hunter" pathway. The "Evil Dragon" would instinctively and crazily respond to Lu Mian until it suffered a big loss because of it.

This was the reason why Lu Mian, after analyzing with the "All-Knowing Eye," made the "Evil Dragon" return to divinity and instinct at the very beginning!

In the exceptionally slow flow of time, Lu Mian, whose body had lost more than half, obtained the "Evil Dragon's" response.

"Haha!" The head in the middle of him laughed loudly.

That mass of darkness and the twisting around it dissipated accordingly.

Because of whom it came, it would disappear because of whom.

Not giving the "Evil Dragon" a chance to react, Lu Mian triggered a contract mark on his body.
