Martial Arts Genius with Proficiency System Chapter 975 - 432: In This World, I Am ‘Daluo’!

"You are correct. In this ceaselessly recurring cycle of rebirth, nothing can truly surprise me anymore, yet you managed to catch me entirely off guard."

"I could even sense the karma belonging to these individuals dispersing, and yet, they still remain alive.

Truly a race favored by Daluo; it's utterly… revolting!!!"

World Light gazed coldly at Su Tu, casually raising a single finger.

Rumble!!!

In the very next moment, the monstrous, eerie tree Su Tu had glimpsed within the threads of karma began to manifest.

The interconnected karma of all races ascending to godhood, the future destiny of the Human Race's Immortals, entwined and interwoven, this formidable colossal tree hovered menacingly behind World Light, causing the entire world to quake.

"Slaughtering your own kind, ascending to the pinnacle of power, is merely the most swift path to your demise. You are fated to become the ripened fruit adorning the highest branches of this tree."

"You could have departed this existence with ease, but now..."

World Light let out a sneer, his icy gaze fixed upon Su Tu. In an instant, invisible killing intent coalesced into surging waves, causing the very fabric of space to fracture.

Su Tu felt as though countless blades were descending upon him, an endless tide of blood surging forth, his body instinctively reacting to evade this imminent peril.

However, Su Tu, drawing upon his formidable willpower, forcefully endured the oppressive majesty, remaining utterly still upon his throne...

Rumble!!!

Crack, crack, crack!!!

Space itself was being consumed by some unknown, mysterious power. The colossal tree behind World Light started to tremble slightly, and indistinct voices, belonging to the Human Race, began to emanate from it.

These voices were fractured and sorrowful, as if recounting untold stories, yet they were too indistinct to be clearly understood. Nevertheless, upon hearing them, an unprecedented fear, one Su Tu had never experienced before, began to creep from the deepest recesses of his heart.

This sensation started subtly, then swelled with increasing intensity—a primal dread deeply ingrained within the Human Race, devoid of any discernible origin or cause, compelling an overwhelming urge to flee, to escape.

Both his physical body and his soul screamed a single message to Su Tu: Run! Run! Run as fast as you can!!

But!!

Su Tu refused. He tightened his grip on the throne's armrests, his body slowly straightening, his eyes blazing with fierce, unyielding resolve!!

Whether instinct or perception dictated otherwise, as long as he willed it not to be, not even his body or soul could sway his decision.

And so, he remained seated on the throne, his gaze cold as he faced the god-like World Light, unleashing a devouring power to strike him down.

Whoosh~

That power grew closer, intensifying its ferocity, resembling a chaotic vortex capable of engulfing all existence. Just as it was about to engulf the throne and Su Tu themselves...

Buzz~

Like snow melting away in the warmth of spring, the chaotic power before the throne began to dissipate, transforming into undulating wisps of black smoke, utterly failing to harm Su Tu in the slightest.

Witnessing this outcome, Su Tu knew his gamble had paid off.

From the very moment World Light had revealed his power, every subsequent action was designed to instill fear and terror in Su Tu, compelling him to abandon the throne.

Su Tu had gambled that his presence on this throne was the key, the leverage needed to continue this intricate game. He had wagered that his hypothesis was correct, and thus, he had forcefully suppressed all fear from his body and soul. Now, the events unfolding confirmed his victory.

Indeed, the power World Light had displayed was profoundly terrifying. The ability to freeze time and manipulate space was a feat only achievable by those at the Daluo level. And here, within a meticulously crafted domain, conceived through countless cycles of planning, such extraordinary power could exist – it seemed plausible.

However, Su Tu had identified critical flaws in World Light's facade.

Firstly, World Light was demonstrably incapable of obliterating the Human Race within this specific domain. Even in the dire circumstances just witnessed, the Human Race members remained unharmed, standing exactly where they were. This clearly indicated that he did not possess absolute control as he implied.

Secondly, while this domain was indeed his creation, World Light required a sacrifice to enter it, unable to pass through directly. This suggested that he was not the ultimate master of this realm; some other entity held superior authority.

And the most crucial third point concerned the throne itself. As the very core of this entire grand design, the throne possessed an unparalleled extraordinary nature. The instant Su Tu had occupied it, he felt a confluence of complex and immensely potent forces, energies that, simply by their existence, held the capacity to alter fundamental realities.

This throne was the sole element capable of restraining World Light, serving as the linchpin for a series of layered restrictions upon him. The vanishing black mist before him had definitively validated Su Tu's assumptions.

At this juncture, World Light let out a sigh of resignation. His posture softened, and behind him, a seat remarkably similar to the Blood Throne materialized unexpectedly.

Mimicking Su Tu's relaxed demeanor, World Light reclined upon it lazily.

With a sigh, he finally spoke, "What a tiresome endeavor. Indeed, occupying this throne, you are quite beyond my reach."

"While I'm uncertain how you deduced it, the situation is now quite clear. You truly have me cornered..."

World Light offered a shrug, his tone utterly carefree, as if engaging in casual banter with an old friend.

Su Tu's expression remained unchanged, yet a significant wave of relief washed over him inwardly. The sheer power World Light had demonstrated moments ago was overwhelmingly terrifying; even combined with the might of Celestial Extremes, he would have stood no chance against it.

That oppressive feeling was just as potent as when he first faced Mo Mei.

"Well, there's no need to hurry. You are truly exceptional. As I stated before, once you secure the throne, I will impart some knowledge to you.

I seldom uphold promises made to the Human Race, but for you, I'm prepared to make a singular exception. Ask me anything you wish to know, and I shall reveal it."

World Light now presented a stark contrast to his demeanor moments ago, his carefree attitude leaving Su Tu feeling quite bewildered.

This very individual was proactively offering to answer Su Tu's queries.

However, the more amiable World Light became, the heavier Su Tu's heart grew.

World Light's current disposition only served to underscore his absolute lack of apprehension. Across countless cycles of reincarnation, he had amassed an immeasurable wealth of experience, secret stratagems, and hidden strengths.

Despite Su Tu reaching his current pinnacle, World Light still possessed an arsenal of responses at his disposal.

Consequently, he wasn't anxious. In this final tenure among the Human Race, or perhaps in this concluding cycle involving them, he found himself amenable to extending his conversation with this intriguing human.

Although Su Tu remained unaware of World Light's precise objectives, he could clearly perceive the unshakeable confidence underpinning his actions.

Su Tu did indeed have several questions to pose, and additionally, he required time to devise a method to overcome their current predicament.

Yet, just as Su Tu prepared to articulate his thoughts...

A sudden system notification materialized.

[You are confronting the power of the Silver Throne. At a certain duration, this is equivalent to facing the Silver Throne directly.

Do you consent to merge and unlock the Final Chapter: I Am in All Things with five Divine Skills, inclusive of Eternal Life!!]

This marked the first instance of the system presenting such an extensive prompt, causing a profound tremor within Su Tu's heart.

The power emanating from the Silver Throne!

The strength radiating from World Light originated from the Silver Throne itself, a method devised by the Daluo! It was astonishing that this Foreign Race had managed to harness it.

Furthermore, under these precise circumstances, he had met the upgrade conditions for the Final Chapter: I Am in All Things.

However, the price for this skill's advancement was exceedingly steep.

Beyond Eternal Life, it necessitated the fusion of four other Divine Skills.

The Divine Skills currently under Su Tu's command were Mistake, Eternal Life, Plunder, All Ashes, Celestial Charm, Divine Slaughter, and Grasp Cause and Effect.

These seven Divine Skills constituted Su Tu's entire repertoire.

Among them, Eternal Life was deemed inconsequential. Upon merging and upgrading, the Final Chapter Skill would enhance Eternal Life's potency with minimal detriment.

At present, Su Tu was also willing to relinquish Celestial Charm, as its enchanting capabilities were no longer a necessity for him.

With Life and Death in the Palm and now possessing the Innate Divine Power Grasp Cause and Effect, this imperfect Divine Skill had remained unused by Su Tu, rendering it suitable as material.

Nevertheless, excluding these, the remaining skills held immense significance for Su Tu.

Plunder provided Su Tu with an almost boundless supply of Qi. All Ashes offered a chance for instant enemy annihilation. Divine Slaughter, when combined with Divine Seal, represented a future instrument for god-slaying.

Mistake, in particular, was indispensable. As the skill Su Tu employed most frequently, Mistake functioned as an all-purpose ability.

Thanks to Mistake, Su Tu had not even rigorously trained his Heart and Spirit Divine Powers for the purposes of killing and slaughter.

The prospect of selecting two from these four vital Divine Skills for fusion filled Su Tu with a sense of reluctance.

However, the current power displayed by World Light was simply too overwhelming; even Su Tu's numerous trump cards might prove insufficient to resolve the crisis.

The Daluo Bone within him, recently utilized, now glowed dimly and was unusable.

Considering all factors, the most viable path to altering the course of events at this moment appeared to be the merging of Divine Skills to achieve the upgrade to the Final Chapter: I Am in All Things.

Divine Skills, in their ultimate state, wield unimaginable might. This would undoubtedly be the key to shattering the current deadlock.
