The Lord of the Rift had long forgotten the contents of the recruitment ceremony.
The more it fought, the more excited it became.
Fu Qi's use of spatial power had evolved from what the Lord of the Rift considered 'clumsy' to its current state of smooth mastery, even allowing him to perform ingenious defenses and counterattacks by drawing inferences.
The trajectory and essence of his movements increasingly gave it a sense of familiarity that was etched into its very marrow.
It was the feeling of sparring and playing with its own long-extinct kin!
“The feeling you give me is becoming more and more like my clansmen!”
Its sense of loneliness gradually faded.
The Lord of the Rift was enjoying this familiar sensation amidst the slaughter.
Under such intense 'emotion,' its spatial power erupted further, as if treating this as a situation that would never occur again in its long lifespan.
Spatial storms, spatial distortion, spatial folding...
A massive number of techniques capable of instantly killing a Super S-Class expert swept toward Fu Qi like a torrential storm.
However, what the Lord of the Rift did not know was that Fu Qi had already completed his preparations.
To decide the victor in a battle between spatial experts, one must find ways to prevent the enemy from perceiving the timing of one's moves.
Against such high-mobility experts, one could only set a lethal trap in silence.
The Fu Qi from the beginning of the fight could never have done this.
But now, he had achieved something that even the Lord of the Rift could not imagine.
Fu Qi stood motionless, staring at the Lord of the Rift with cold, piercing eyes.
As the violent killing moves hit and then subsided, he still showed no signs of injury.
“Did you merge into the void at the critical moment? Quick reflexes, but that's useless against me.”
Just as the Lord of the Rift prepared to lock onto Fu Qi again, an even stronger sense of crisis caused it to freeze completely in place.
What was this aura?
Why couldn't it sense this human's presence?
He was clearly not far away.
Just how many spatial layers had he opened up for himself?
In an instant, the Lord of the Rift finally realized something was very wrong.
It suddenly looked around; the familiar planets had long since vanished.
Just a moment ago, they were still fighting within the range of the Solar System, even jumping frequently between the orbits of various planets.
But they were all gone.
Even the most dazzling star had disappeared from its sight.
Had it unknowingly fought its way out of the Solar System with that human?
No.
That wasn't right at all!
It was the opponent's trap!
The Lord of the Rift suddenly turned back to look toward Fu Qi's position.
A container wrapped in spatial power appeared in his hand.
The Lord of the Rift could even sense its own aura inside it.
It then looked up abruptly, as if meeting the gaze of a giant eye outside the spatial wall.
“I see... I see...”
Space was overlapping infinitely.
The Lord of the Rift had silently wandered into this world that Fu Qi had specially created for it.
It seemed to be moving freely across the battlefield, but in reality, it had already fallen into Fu Qi's hands.
Space was wrapped layer upon layer.
Fu Qi seemed to be holding a small world, and outside that small world was another world.
Even if the Lord of the Rift escaped, it could not escape the palm of Fu Qi's hand.
No matter how it fled, it was always inside that container that held it.
The Lord of the Rift quieted down completely, and the spatial power on its body gradually subsided.
“Since I am the only one left, complete extinction seems like a good choice. Human, what is this move called?”
“Void Form—The World Beyond.”
“Do it.”
Fu Qi easily crushed the container in his hand, and space shattered layer by layer, as if destroying an entire world.
The Lord of the Rift, merged into that space, could no longer escape and was completely annihilated along with this small world.
At this moment, Fu Qi's Spiritual Power was one million; he had merged into the void, and his source of power was precisely the territory of the Solar System.
If Lou Wei's source of power was that dazzling star, then Fu Qi's source of power was this space called the Solar System.
One million was not the limit of this star system, but rather the current upper limit of what Fu Qi could bear.
If it were raised even a little more, he would completely lose himself and merge into this space.
“...Release!”
As the silent shattering swept through.
Fu Qi finally disconnected from this space. If he had been any slower, he might have been assimilated and vanished.
His consciousness blurred as he stared at his hands.
His two hands had lost their distinct boundaries, like a painting that had lost its lines, giving a sense of imminent dimensional reduction.
Fortunately, he did not die immediately.
His exclusive Form Technique was far safer than Lou Wei's 'Corona Form'.
Although both came at the cost of self-destruction, [N O V E L I G H T] he could at least act as a firecracker twice within a short period.
Compared to Lou Wei, who could only be a firecracker once, he won!
This scene was transmitted back to Blue Star by the All-Knowing Magic Eye.
Many people were slow to react, completely unaware of what had happened.
They only knew that the figure of the Lord of the Rift had disappeared, and Fu Qi had crushed a small orb that looked anything but simple. Had the victory been decided just like that?
Was the battle between experts always so abstract?
“Did the Director of the Countermeasures Bureau win?”
“Probably. That Lord of the Rift is gone; it couldn't have just run away as a deserter, right?”
“Their battle must have been on a completely different dimension from the previous battles on Blue Star...”
“Now the enemies in space have been defeated, and the enemies on Blue Star have also been defeated. Does this count as the end?”
“Wait, there's still a massive Biological Warship parked there. It might not be over yet!”
“What? There's still a BOSS battle to fight?”
Inside the dormitory.
Ye Yao's eyelids twitched as she stared at Fu Qi's eerie state on the screen.
She didn't even care about the 20 Attribute Points provided by Fu Qi alone anymore.
She only heard Tu Sheng's explanation ringing in her ears.
“Don't worry, he won't die for now. This is the price of his exclusive Form Technique, 'Void Form'. It's normal for such great power to have a price.”
“It would have been better to let me provide backup; at least there's no price for me.”
Ye Yao muttered, a sentence that made Tu Sheng shake her head slightly.
If this little girl's words got out, how much would they damage the self-esteem of so many experts?
However, this also further proved the value of her World-Ending Ability.
The exclusive Form Technique others worked so hard to create was not even as good as her simple Fission.
From the beginning, she was destined to stand above everyone else; no one could compare to her.
Ye Yao looked at her unallocated Attribute Points, which totaled a full two hundred and eighty-five.
This Blue Star Defense Battle had provided her with so many Attribute Points.
Even after putting her Spiritual Power up to five hundred, there were still many left.
A full sense of security.
Then Ye Yao turned her gaze toward the Biological Warship in space.
Now that the cannon fodder, elite monsters, and mini-BOSSes had all been dealt with.
Was it time for the Big BOSS to make its appearance?
At the same time.
Near Blue Star's orbit.
Fu Qi was doing his best to adjust his condition, trying to restore the requirements for using Void Form once more.
There was likely another battle to fight; he couldn't rest yet.
Just then, a domineering wave of spiritual intent came through.
“It seems you are the strongest warrior on this planet. The ceremony is over; I will eliminate the remaining life.”
Fu Qi's heart skipped a beat.
Here it comes, the Interstellar Overlord who orchestrated everything!
