Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic Chapter 1188 - 640: He Stood Up

The missive delivered by the Radiant Emperor offered no explanation regarding his methodology for shattering high-dimensional destiny by assuming Su Yu’s identity. However, it did provide one absolute truth: he has achieved a partial breakthrough in deciphering it! This revelation is precisely why he was able to shed his mummified shell, abandon his position on the throne, and adopt the persona of Su Yu upon Azure Star. Though, admittedly, the sequence of events seems somewhat tangled and logically inverted. After all, the Radiant Emperor departed the throne first, then impersonated Su Yu, only to subsequently decode a fragment of this 'high-dimensional destiny.' Yet, from the current perspective, it implies that his departure from the throne depended entirely on that initial deciphering.

Clearly, such 'high-dimensional destiny' exists beyond the constraints of linear causality and cannot be grasped through conventional logic. Having processed this, Su Yu felt he had fully assimilated the data provided by the Radiant Emperor. In reality, Su Yu remained burdened by many questions: What exactly is high-dimensional destiny? How does the Radiant Emperor utilize impersonation to decode it, and are there more concealed enigmas at play? Furthermore, the most pressing mystery remains... does his second awakening panel share a connection with the Radiant Emperor? Su Yu opted not to push for answers; he knew that if the Radiant Emperor had intended for him to know, that information would have been included in the transmission. At present, any silence stems either from an inability to speak or a deliberate act of withholding. Thus, Su Yu decided he must tread this path of discovery alone.

Nevertheless, terms like high-dimensional destiny and Infinite Universe were entirely foreign to Su Yu, leaving him without a starting point for his investigation. 'It would be more prudent to accept the newly unlocked profession first, cast off this mummified existence, and delay the deeper research for later,' Su Yu contemplated. He immediately issued a mandate to the panel to initiate the profession selection. Three new paths appeared: Space-Time Transcender, Spirit God, and Cause and Effect Singularity. After deep deliberation, Su Yu settled on the third option: Cause and Effect Singularity. This profession, he reasoned, held the best potential to resolve his current crisis. The Space-Time Transcender path likely functioned as a mere continuation of his existing Time-Space Mechanic role, offering only incremental improvements to Space-Time Control—a marginal benefit at best. While the Spirit God, a direct evolution of his other Extraordinary Abilities, offered immense raw Spiritual Power, raw power alone was insufficient to bridge his current predicament.

The persistent erosion by the twenty Princes remained an insurmountable challenge, as their ability to revive through mutation and evolution rendered mere slaughter ineffective. Consequently, Su Yu turned to the third option, Cause and Effect Singularity, which was evidently unlocked via his innate 'Source of Cause and Effect' trait. Should the twenty Princes persist in their attempt to consume his Source of Cause and Effect, reshaping it into a specialized Extraordinary Profession would surely provide the necessary leverage to neutralize them. 'Select Cause and Effect Singularity!' Su Yu commanded internally. [Congratulations to the host, you have successfully attained the profession: Cause and Effect Singularity (lv1: 0/100000000).] [Congratulations to the host, you have successfully awakened the Core Ability: Source of Cause and Effect. As a Source of Cause and Effect, it can manifest as the root of causality for all things.] [Source of Cause and Effect: (lv1) As the Cause and Effect Singularity, you inhabit the inception of all causality chains—the very genesis of all power and life. Mastery over this force theoretically grants you near-omnipotence!]

The moment Su Yu issued the command, he felt a strange, latent energy manifesting within his mind. This force defied categorization—it lacked the qualities of matter, energy, spirit, or data, remaining utterly alien to every phenomenon he had encountered previously. In comparison, it possessed a faint resemblance to the causal power he tapped into when assuming the 'Mechanics of Cause and Effect' mantle. However, that former power was merely a sophisticated manifestation of spiritual energy capable of influencing destiny. The force he now wielded was not energy at all; it was, in essence, the substance of cause and effect itself. He had attained the ability to perceive causality as a physical dimension, integrating it into his very being rather than relying on spirit or energy. This was the true nature of his Core Ability.

One might wonder if this was redundant, given that Su Yu already possessed the source of causality prior to this profession. Far from it. Previously, Su Yu’s manipulation of these forces was crude and instinctual, leading to uncontrolled events like those involving the Star Tower and the Dust Universe. Now, by leveraging the panel to harness this elusive force, the process became systematized and stable. No longer did he fear that an errant thought might inadvertently transform him into someone else's ancestor; he now possessed total mastery over his influence. Furthermore, through the panel's interface, he could elevate these attributes, eventually unlocking deep specializations and reaching unimaginable heights of power. 'Let us test it,' Su Yu thought. He focused his will on the concrete strands of causality within his consciousness. The twenty Princes, who had been tirelessly clawing at his mind, suddenly shrieked: 'Cease! What have you done?' 'Causality! Why is our connection to causality unraveling?'

Su Yu turned a deaf ear to their pleas, intensifying his effort. He was systematically extracting the causal threads binding the twenty Princes. His goal was to strip them of their causal foundation to determine if they could still maintain their infinite mutations without it. Initially, this would have been an impossible task, but with the Cause and Effect Singularity and his awakened ability, the chains of destiny lay bare for him to manipulate as he pleased. The twenty Princes, sensing their impending erasure, roared in a desperate attempt to mutate and fight back. Yet, their Power of Mutation was merely a hollow variant of the causal law. Moments later, deprived of their anchor in reality, the Princes dissolved into nothingness, their infuriated shouts silenced forever. Peace returned to his consciousness, and his mummified body shed its constraints, returning to its true form. The danger had been neutralized. For the first time in a thousand years, Su Yu flexed his legs and rose from the Golden Throne. High above, within the Star Tower of the Zhendan Imperial Palace, two Radiant Imperial Guards watched the display in stunned silence, their jaws hanging open. 'The... the Emperor has risen?!'
