Apotheosis

"Shatter!"

Zen didn't care how thick the black crystal shields were. He was only aware that time was running tight.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

After several punches, the black crystal shields and the white spot below shattered into pieces.

"The last one!"

Zen gritted his teeth. Looking down, he saw that the countless four-legged black snakes had coiled around one another to form an incredibly massive black crystal shield. The interior of this translucent crystal shield presented a complex pattern.

Narrowing his eyes, he willed the wings on his back to launch himself towards the black crystal shield, arcing gracefully in the air.

Bang!

With a violent collision, cracks appeared on the Regal Jade Crystals on the surface of Zen's body. However, the black crystal shield remained unscathed.

"Again!"

Zen jumped high and dashed down toward the black crystal shield once more.

Bang!

An ear-piercing crash sounded, but to Zen's frustration, the black crystal shield still stood firm.

By burning the world, the Evil God had gathered more energy than Zen did. The black crystal shield he had conjured was made from an unimaginable amount of energy, rendering it practically unbreakable.

Zen took a deep breath. He knew that if he wanted to destroy this shield, he'd have to burn the Regal Jade World.

But there was no way the Regal Jade Spirit would allow it, and even Zen wasn't willing to do it. He was nowhere near as crazy as the Evil God, who burned an entire civilization that had supported him.

Whoosh!

Zen jumped high again and kept striking the black crystal shield, over and over again.

As he crashed into the shield, huge black meteorites fell down, one after another.

Fortunately, these black meteorites fell relatively slowly-- which gave enough time for those below to dodge. However, upon impact with the ground, they'd release a tidal wave of energy.

If anyone was hit by the wave of energy, they would definitely be smashed into pieces.

Screams pierced the air as unfortunate creatures were unable to avoid the waves of energy.

As another meteorite crash landed, several members from the Separate Abyss race were caught in the wave of energy. Among them was Hamzah, a core

always creatures who would painstakingly devote their entire lives to studying these things.

Once, someone had even discovered a unique civilization on the Other Shore. It was known as the Calculation Civilization.

This civilization could hardly be ranked in the top 1, 000 among all civilizations. It was only considered as a secondary ruling force. In that round of chaos where the Calculation Civilization emerged, there was also another powerful ruling force.

The Calculation Civilization was actually considered extremely weak in terms of strength. Hence, not long after they had entered the Other Shore, they had grown extinct.

However, it was this very civilization that had managed to almost complete the Finale Way!

The methods they had used were quite different from other civilizations'. They didn't focus all their energy on the Other Shore, and concluded that they wouldn't be able to complete the Finale Way by merely relying on the Other Shore's strength.

In order to complete the Finale Way, one had to understand the nature of the whole chaos. Consequently, one needed to grasp the three essential natures of the chaos: space, time, and energy.

This civilization had inferred that time and space were transformation forms of the energy in the flowing process, hence, the essence was energy. As long as the energy flow was affected on a higher level, it could rebuild or even destroy everything.

And the key to achieve this was exactly the Energy Shaft.
