Martial Arts Genius with Proficiency System Chapter 976 - 433: Finale!! I Am Among All Things!!
Previously on Martial Arts Genius with Proficiency System...
In this world, every occurrence involves give and take; it's impossible for one to possess all favorable circumstances.
Su Tu harbored no hesitation within his heart.
"With Eternal Life as the wellspring, merging with Celestial Charm, I shall seize, rectify, and wield causality to bear fruit, elevating it to the Final Chapter: I Am in All Things!!"
As this thought solidified, Su Tu sensed certain inner forces beginning to recede, while concurrently, an unimaginable power, surpassing the current realm, started coalescing within his being.
Su Tu recognized this as the initial phase of the fusion, though complete success would necessitate more time.
For the present moment, his objective was to withstand the encroaching World Light before him.
"Should you possess any questions or curiosities, I am willing to impart them, as a gesture of my leniency during this final lifetime."
At this juncture, the World Light also commenced speaking.
"The final reincarnation, a phrase I have encountered countless times. What transpires when this concluding cycle reaches its end?"
Su Tu directed his gaze towards the World Light, his voice measured.
Earlier, within the Ancestor Hall, Su Tu had gleaned from a mysterious figure that this was indeed the ultimate reincarnation, yet he remained uncertain about the events that would follow its conclusion.
"Following the established course, once these final thirty years conclude, this cycle of reincarnation will cease, and the river of time will forge a new path. This Star River will no longer be bound by the cycle."
The World Light responded without reservation.
"The established course...."
Yet, Su Tu was the first to perceive the subtle anomaly within the World Light's declaration.
Under typical circumstances, the reincarnation would not repeat upon the cycle's end, and events would not be replayed. However, the very existence of the World Light was, in itself, an anomaly.
"Indeed, according to normal circumstances. But under my orchestrated plan, the cycle will only conclude for the Human Race, while the cycles of all other races will persist!"
The World Light articulated with composure.
"The Human Race must be eradicated to facilitate the flawless progression of my scheme and ensure the continued existence of this Star River."
"Why?" Su Tu inquired spontaneously.
"Because your advent is the very cause of this Star River's current predicament!!"
As the World Light spoke, it slowly raised a hand, and a faint luminescence emerged, drifting towards Su Tu.
Su Tu intently observed it, beholding within the World Light's recorded memories, spectral reflections of myriad heavens, the eradication of the Silver Throne belonging to potent races, and an Immortal Ship carrying an infant...
Witnessing these visions, Su Tu's expression grew pensive.
He had previously surmised certain truths, but their confirmation in reality left him somewhat stunned.
It was true that the Human Race had been brought to this celestial expanse by the Daluo, and that the Niger Race and other formidable factions had attempted to harm them on the Ancestor Star, leading to their exile and transformation into void spirits.
The majority of the truths he now perceived, he had already partially deduced, but the sight of that Immortal Ship was the most astonishing.
That Immortal Ship bearing countless infants...
It was the very Immortal Ship etched into his memory, the one he had heard tales of in his youth.
At that moment, Su Tu even began to question if he, like those infants, had been transported to this Star River aboard that same Immortal Ship.
"The Human Race serves as Daluo's anchor; as long as the Human Race endures, this Star River can never achieve liberation."
"Our calamities are all a consequence of your existence."
"Su Tu, how conceited your race is. Merely because we, the Ancestor Races, acted in self-preservation, a sliver of disdain became ingrained in your race's heart.
Even now, you still harbor resentment towards us..."
The World Light's words unveiled the underlying reason for the Human Race's inherent detestation and revulsion towards 'beasts'.
It stemmed from the fact that those powerful beings had once attempted to harm the falling infants on the Ancestor Star.
Upon hearing this, Su Tu felt a deeper confusion gnawing at him. How could the disgust of an infant influence an entire race's will, spanning across eternal ages?
It seemed utterly preposterous.
He had previously assumed this aversion originated from ancient conflicts or historical vestiges.
However, he had never anticipated that its source was the disgust of an infant.
He had speculated that these infants were undeniably extraordinary, yet he had still underestimated their profound significance...
"I comprehend your animosity towards the Human Race for being exiled as void spirits and your desire to obliterate them."
"But why perpetuate the cycle of reincarnation?"
"If my understanding is correct, your arduous efforts and meticulously laid plans are all aimed at continuing this cycle."
Su Tu spoke, simultaneously feeling the power within him surge continuously towards his Hundred Acupoints, even breaching the boundary of his Heart and Spirit to merge therein.
"Astute."
The World Light appeared oblivious to the changes occurring within Su Tu.
"My every action is merely to perpetuate the cycle of reincarnation."
"Why? A world trapped in perpetual recurrence and endless repetition is a hopeless existence. You, who retain your memories, understand this truth more profoundly than anyone.
Such a world cannot advance, cannot be elevated, merely drifting aimlessly through the long river of time until it eventually decays. You expend all your strength solely to destroy your own world?"
Su Tu's words carried an icy edge, yet they were the unvarnished truth. A caged beast cannot grow, and flowers hidden in perpetual shadow will never blossom.
This Star River is ensnared within the river of years, ceaselessly repeating and looping. Such a world is irrevocably destined for decay.
"Silence!!! Do you presume I am unaware of all this?"
"But what recourse is there? With the advent of Daluo comes a malevolent gaze; once this Star River breaks free from the cycle of reincarnation, that dire omen will invariably find this world."
