Chapter 876: A Peek at the Void Zone’s Secret!

“What? Not dead yet?”

The Great Light Honorable Lord’s face shifted dramatically. Unquestionably, his last attack could not have been withstood by any third-grade ultimate existence. However, there Merlin was, standing unharmed before him.

Merlin’s expression was very calm but his gaze was extremely harsh as he watched the Great Light Honorable Lord like a hawk. To be honest, the Great Light Honorable Lord’s last attack indeed had made Merlin feel threatened.

If he was an ordinary third-grade ultimate existence, for sure he would not be able to withstand the hit. Even if he somehow did not die, he would have been grievously injured and unable to fight the Great Light Honorable Lord.

Nevertheless, Merlin was wearing none other than the Golden Ray Armor. Perhaps, Merlin could only manipulate the Golden Ray Armor’s abilities up to the level of a third-level ultimate existence. However, the Golden Ray Armor could only be destroyed by a supreme existence such as the ancient Thirty-six Emperors.

Therefore, Merlin was not severely injured, merely shaken. With the Golden Ray Armor in hand, Merlin held an impregnable edge in his fight with the Great Light Honorable Lord.

“It’s my turn!”

A cold glint flashed past Merlin’s eyes. His figure instantly multiplied into countless duplicates. Endless fists began to rain down relentlessly on the Great Light Honorable Lord’s body.

This violent attack was made up of pure power. Not only a second-grade ultimate existence but even an ordinary third-grade ultimate existence would not be able to withstand it.

“Haha, I couldn’t kill you but what makes you think you can harm me? Your abilities may be powerful but my power of the natural order is incomparably immense. Your attacks are far from the power of the natural order on my body. So, you can’t harm me either!”

The Great Light Honorable Lord exuded a white light. Regardless of hundreds of thousands of Merlin’s fists slamming down on the Great Light Honorable Lord, he was unable to injure him. Just like the Great Light Honorable Lord had said, despite Merlin’s abilities, he was not powerful enough to crush the Great Light Honorable Lord.

Furthermore, the Great Light Honorable Lord’s power of the natural order was incredibly immense. The subspace which was consolidated by the power of the natural order inside his body was unbelievably enormous. Hence, even if Merlin were to spend a few months constantly attacking the Great Light Honorable Lord, his power of the natural order would not be exhausted.

Moreover, the Great Light Honorable Lord was able to continuously consolidate more power of the natural order from the Void Zone. Thus, there was no point for Merlin to continue attacking him in this manner.

“Swish.”

Hence, Merlin stopped. He looked at the Great Light Honorable Lord disdainfully.

“I can’t harm you? Don’t be too sure of that!”

Merlin took a deep breath. Although he had colossal amounts of energy transmuted by the original Dimension Core, Merlin was unwilling to use this energy unless he had no other choice. Hence, there was still a lot of energy left, at least ninety percent of it.

Right now, however, Merlin could no longer save it for another day. He had to kill the Great Light Honorable Lord. Thus, he must unleash his most powerful strength.

“Annihilation function!”

As soon as Merlin’s voice fell, the energy inside his body began to combust. At least thirty percent of the energy was consumed by Merlin to unleash the annihilation function.

The annihilation function was pure destruction and obliteration. Therefore, just its aura alone was enough to make anyone’s blood run cold. Even the Great Light Honorable Lord, who was initially unconcerned, gradually turned fearful.

This aura struck fear into his heart!

This was not the first time Merlin had wielded the annihilation function. However, unleashing an annihilation function that consumed so much energy felt completely different than before. From Merlin’s perspective, the world seemed to transform before his eyes. All he saw now was threads of the power of the natural order.

The power of the natural order was like faint threads which connected every dimension. Even the Void Zone which did not have any time and space was filled with the power of the natural order.

“It turns out that the power of the natural order indeed controls everything…”

Merlin was contemplative. Such a sight could not be seen by a third-grade ultimate existence but instead, only the legendary Emperor Lords or fourth-grade ultimate existences.

The first-, second-, and even third-grade ultimate existences were accumulating the power of the natural order. Even though the power of the natural order accumulated by the third-grade ultimate existences could evolve into a subspace, it was still for the purpose of collecting more power of the natural order.

At fourth-grade, it was a substantive transformation which was different than all the other ultimate existences.

However, in the past, despite having the Golden Ray Armor, Merlin’s abilities had never achieved the level of a fourth-grade ultimate existence. Right now, as he had spent almost thirty percent of energy to wield the annihilation function, he had finally broken through the critical point and achieved the level of a fourth-grade ultimate existence. The faint threads of the power of the natural order before his eyes could only be seen by a fourth-grade ultimate existence.

“These faint threads, I’m afraid, represents that the entire Void Zone will eventually meet the same outcome, which is becoming part of the Void Zone… Overcoming the power of the natural order is to break every constraint!”

It was at this very moment that Merlin had realized how difficult it was to overcome or reverse the natural order. It was virtually impossible. This was because any life form which was born in the Void Zone was already a part of the Void Zone to begin with. So, it was impossible to detach every single constraint.

The power of the natural order was created as an enticement to induce life forms in the Void Zone to integrate themselves with the origin of the natural order. This denoted placing one’s personal imprint into the origin of the natural order and becoming inextricably linked with the Void Zone. In other words, they would rise and fall with the Void Zone!

This was the true reason why the Void Zone could not give birth to any existence which could overcome the natural order. Previously, Merlin did not know what overcoming or reversing the natural order signified.

Right now, however, he finally understood. Moreover, he understood why Aruba warned him not to integrate with the natural order and become an ultimate existence. The reason was that any life form which was born in the Void Zone was already inextricably linked to the Void Zone. So, overcoming the natural order, in the first place, was already a monumental challenge.

Subsequently, integrating with the natural order and becoming an ultimate existence was further entrenching the linkages with the Void Zone. Hence, taking this step meant that it was impossible to overcome the natural order. Even the powerful ancient Thirty-six Emperors would not be able to overcome it.

Multiple threads of the power of the natural order materialized before Merlin, allowing him to examine himself properly. His connection with the Void Zone was indeed quite entrenched but compared to his surroundings, his linkages seemed to be the least.

In contrast, the person with the deepest linkages was the Great Light Honorable Lord a distance away. Since he was already a third-grade ultimate existence, he was inextricably linked to the Void Zone. There was no way for him to overcome the natural order.

“The power of the natural order threads connecting my body and the Void Zone is much less. Firstly, it’s because I haven’t become an ultimate existence but most importantly, it’s probably because my consciousness came from another world.”

Merlin now discovered his advantage. He had originated from a different world hence, his connection with the Void Zone was very limited. It was only because he had occupied the body of a life form born in this Void Zone thus, he was somewhat linked.

However, compared to a life form which was born in the Void Zone, Merlin possessed a distinctive advantage.

“Annihilate!”

Merlin resumed his focus. He saw that the Great Light Honorable Lord’s face finally showed a hint of fear. A highly respected ruler of a region – a third-grade ultimate existence who controlled two Vestigial Tribe’s confinement dimension – finally sensed the danger of death.

“No…”

The Great Light Honorable Lord roared as he mobilized every last ounce of the power of the natural order. The subspace inside his body which contained the power of the natural order almost manifested itself. Therein contained an endless supply of the power of the natural order which would never run out.

Nonetheless, a gap in power was not something that could be compensated by mere numbers. By relying on the Golden Ray Armor, Merlin’s abilities had been enhanced to a fourth-grade ultimate existence. As a result, the Great Light Honorable Lord could barely put up any resistance. As soon as the power of the natural order on his body came into contact with the annihilation function, they melted away like snowflakes under the sun.

The Great Light Honorable Lord was truly terrified now. Ever since he had created the Great Light Region and controlled two of the Vestigial Tribe’s confinement dimensions as well as amassed countless first- and second-grade ultimate existences under him, he had never felt the threat of death.

No one dared to provoke the Great Light Honorable Lord. Right now, however, he was going to be defeated by Merlin. Surely, this battle was destined to propel Merlin from a nobody to a famous legend!

On the other hand, the Great Light Honorable Lord would only be mentioned occasionally, in passing, when people spoke about Merlin.

“Phew…”

Merlin’s annihilation function, upon consuming nearly one-third of his energy source, was forcibly enhanced to nearly on par with a fourth-grade existence. The resulting power was beyond imagination. Even the Great Light Honorable Lord could not put up any resistance. Wherever the annihilation function traveled, everything was annihilated and turned into ashes!

Slowly, the golden light on Merlin’s body dimmed and dissipated, revealing the magnificent Golden Ray Armor underneath. Earlier, when he was battling the Great Light Honorable Lord, his Golden Ray Armor could no longer remain concealed. Hence, the Golden Ray Armor had been exposed to everyone.

Regardless, at this moment, the Void Zone was inexplicably silent. There was no noise, and almost no looks of greed. So, what if that was the Golden Ray Armor? Who could take it away from Merlin?

Moments ago, Merlin had just vanquished the Great Light Honorable Lord. If even the Great Light Honorable Lord was dead, who would dare to covet Merlin’s Golden Ray Armor? It would not be just greed but absolute foolishness!

Merlin still did not open his eyes. He was carefully savoring the wonderful sensation from earlier. There was certainly a substantial difference between a fourth-grade ultimate existence and the other grades.

Once his annihilation function was unleashed, his power had diminished rapidly, and the faint threads of the power of the natural order, too, disappeared without a trace.

Merlin knew that it was not because the threads had disappeared but because he no longer had the ability to see the “threads” that connected the Void Zone.
