Evolving infinitely from ground zero Chapter 573 326, Ultimate Sublimation! Breaking the limits of carbon-based life!_2

In a heartbeat!

Radiant golden light flared in every direction as massive vines surged upward, obscuring the heavens and blotting out the sun. Celestial waters coalesced and poured down while subterranean fires erupted from the depths, causing the very earth to fracture and crumble… The combined might of the Five Elements exploded at once, concentrating their full destructive force upon Lin Zichen.

Sensing the overwhelming pressure of the Five Elements, Lin Zichen’s expression shifted slightly.

Then, with a sudden burst of speed, his form blurred as he tore through the void to evade the onslaught.

Regrettably, the strength of the Five Elements surpassed his expectations. The energy tracked his path through the spatial rift, and before he could make his escape, the force slammed into his back.

A single impact was all it took for Lin Zichen—a master who had reached the Ninth Order Great Perfection in Biological Level—to be pushed to the brink of death.

"Puh!"

As he was hurled out of the void, the severely maimed Lin Zichen sprayed a mouthful of crimson blood. The color that had returned to his face thanks to the Bloodbath Pill vanished instantly, leaving him deathly pale once more.

"Buzz… buzz… buzz!"

Thick vines lashed out like whips, ensnaring Lin Zichen’s body with lightning speed. They bound him tight, hoisting him high into the air.

Moments later, the Water God stepped through the vacuum of space, manifesting before Lin Zichen with an indifferent gaze.

"You are unworthy of the Abyss Power. It belongs to me, and the time has come for it to return to its true master."

Having spoken, He projected His spiritual power into Lin Zichen’s Sea of Consciousness, scouring the depths for the Abyss Power hidden within.

Refusing to submit, Lin Zichen immediately ignited the final remnants of his Essence Blood. He tore himself free from the constricting vines and, with a mere thought, flickered through the void to put distance between himself and the Water God.

A flicker of genuine surprise crossed the Water God’s brow at this unexpected resistance.

Lin Zichen had nearly drained every drop of Essence Blood and Blood Qi Power in his system, yet he had still managed to break those bindings. It was truly remarkable.

Intrigued, the Water God remarked, "Your strength does not originate solely from the Abyss; it appears you harbor secrets that even I am unaware of."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zichen realized that the system and the Abyss might be entirely separate entities.

However, he had no time to ponder such mysteries now.

Steadying his turbulent emotions, Lin Zichen demanded, "What exactly is this power of the Abyss?"

The Water God’s voice was as chilling and clear as ice as He answered, "The power of the Abyss is the very origin of the world."

He was well aware that Lin Zichen was only talking to stall for time and recover.

Yet, He was unconcerned.

He did not believe that any amount of stalling would alter the final outcome.

At this moment, the Earth was almost entirely depleted of the Origin Force required for Lin Zichen to absorb and continue his Cultivation.

There was no path left for Lin Zichen to turn the tide of battle.

"The origin of the world?"

Lin Zichen repeated, sounding dazed.

He knew the Water God saw through his delay tactics.

But he also understood that the Water God would not lift a finger to stop him.

He was familiar with the sheer arrogance of a being who had achieved Five Elements Unification. To the Water God, this was the pride of a titan.

Like a massive, powerful elephant, He would never be bothered by the posturing of a pathetic ant.

"I seek to ascend as the Creator God and fashion a realm of my own making," the Water God continued in His frigid tone, allowing Lin Zichen his borrowed time. "To accomplish this, two requirements must be met."

"The first is the mastery of the Five Elements Origin."

"The Five Elements Origin serves as the foundational building blocks for a world’s structure. By commanding it, one gains the power to forge all matter and kindle the spark of life."

"The second is the possession of an unclaimed void."

"And the Abyss, the so-called Life Forbidden Zone, is exactly such a void."

"Now that I have seized the Five Elements Origin, only the Abyss remains for my collection."

The Water God explained these cosmic truths to Lin Zichen with strange patience.

This was His final gesture of pity toward the human ant before Him—a reward for Lin Zichen’s service as the vessel for the Son of the Abyss.

"I have provided the answers you sought."

"Now, it is time for the cycle to close."

"Perish along with this Earth and the Origin Land."

The Water God spoke without a shred of feeling.

As His sentence finished, He once again channeled the might of the Five Elements toward Lin Zichen, intending to extinguish his life and reclaim the Abyss Power currently dwelling in his Sea of Consciousness.

Facing certain death, Lin Zichen resolutely burned every scrap of Essence Blood and Blood Qi Power he had managed to regain. He converted it all into raw force, concentrating it into his fist. He soared toward the sky, plunging into the maelstrom of the Five Elements to throw a desperate punch at the Water God.

The moment his flesh met the elemental energy, agonizing pain ripped through his entire being.

Gritting his teeth against the torture, Lin Zichen forced his way through the elemental storm, pouring every ounce of Blood Qi Power from his fist onto the Water God.

In a flash, the boundless, surging Blood Qi Power swallowed the Water God whole, the sheer heat evaporating the surrounding atmosphere into a vacuum.

That single strike nearly emptied Lin Zichen’s reserves, leaving his complexion ghostly white once more.

Without hesitation, he willed a massive quantity of Bloodbath Pills into his mouth, swallowing them greedily to force the recovery of his Essence Blood and Blood Qi Power.

Simultaneously, familiar system notifications flickered into existence within the void.

[Your strike has reached the limits of Earth's carbon-based lifeforms.]

[Achievement: Equal the limits of Earth's carbon-based lifeforms 100 times.]

[Current progress: 98/100]

Lin Zichen’s heart leaped at the sight.

Only two more strikes were needed to complete the achievement!

While his spirit surged with hope,

The fading remnants of the Blood Qi Power began to clear, revealing a flickering figure wreathed in green light.

It was the Water God.

Sustained by the dual protections of Vajra Invincible and Everlasting, the Water God remained in nearly flawless condition. He stood before Lin Zichen once again, seemingly invincible.

"Your desperate struggle is meaningless," the Water God stated in His hollow, crystalline voice.

Lin Zichen offered no verbal reply.

His only response was another fist heavy with Blood Qi Power.

"Boom!"

With a thunderous roar, the Water God—who had just fully mended His form via Everlasting—was once again engulfed by the limitless Blood Qi Power.

[Your strike has reached the limits of Earth's carbon-based lifeforms.]

[Achievement: Equal the limits of Earth's carbon-based lifeforms 100 times.]

[Current progress: 99/100]

Just one last punch!

With grim determination, Lin Zichen sacrificed the very last thread of Essence Blood keeping his heart beating. He unleashed one final, terrifying surge of Blood Qi Power toward the Water God.

"Boom!"

As that world-shaking explosion rang out,

A cascade of text notifications flooded the void all at once.

[Your strike has reached the limits of Earth's carbon-based lifeforms.]

[Equal the limits of Earth's carbon-based lifeforms 100 times, achieved.]

[You have gained the Biometric Attribute: Multiple Forms.]

[Multiple Forms: Your body is no longer constrained by the frailties of Earth's carbon-based flesh and can achieve evolution beyond standard life forms.]

[Your Biological Level has successfully evolved from "Ninth Order Great Perfection" to "Primordial."]

As the final notification manifested, the exhausted Lin Zichen began a violent transformation. The Blood Qi Power in his veins vanished into nothingness, replaced by a profound and ancient mysterious energy. This power sparked a radical metamorphosis in his broken body, weaving his very essence into the fabric of the void.
