Mu Fan's Shura mecha battles Barr's Solomon King, with both fighters demonstrating incredible speed and destructive power. Despite shattering Solomon King over a hundred times, Barr's mecha continuously reassembles due to its lightning transformation ability, effectively delaying Mu Fan. Mu Fan realizes his opponent's goal is to stall him, preventing him from reaching the Insect Brain. Faced with this, Mu Fan activates his ultimate move, the Threefold Supernova, to break through. However, another mecha, Judge, intervenes and blocks Shura's advance, while its pilot questions why another mecha, Prophet, has not transferred a fourth Gatepost.

The milky-white Mecha [Prophet] hadn't moved again from start to finish.

"...Prophet Mirror Image, Vashak, are you trying to betray Solomon?!" Solomon King glanced back; Barr's androgynous voice finally rose in anger.

A streak of lightning appeared, piercing that [Prophet]; the milky-white Mecha shattered into rays of light just like that.

Meanwhile, twenty thousand kilometers away, on the dark side of a desolate Star Body.

The real milky-white Mecha was holding a staff in one hand, gently raised. A thousand meters before it, two Mecha around forty meters tall were trapped in a cage woven from white beams of light.

Fourth Gatepost, Samikina, the SS‑class Demon God [Punisher], whose whole body was covered in white crystal.

Fifth Gatepost, Marbus, the SS‑class Demon God [Prison Guard], whose whole body was bloated like an Abomination.

"Leader Vashak, this isn't a teleportation force field... we've been isolated in a Concealed sub-dimension... what are you trying to do?"

Samikina, the one who oversaw Solomon's punishments, the foremost beneath the three great leaders, spoke in a cold voice at this moment, yet was not particularly enraged.

The Fifth Gatepost, Marbus, likewise stared coldly at their Third Leader.

"I saw that the Ancient God we worship... will be slowly devoured by another kind of cosmic lifeform. That lifeform is clearly insignificant... yet it is truly eroding the Ancient God's will... Faith collapses, the road ahead returns to darkness. Solomon, which has endured for eras, must leave behind a spark."

The gentle voice sounded by their ears.

"What do you mean!"

"How could the Ancient God be devoured?!"

As calm as the Fourth and Fifth Gateposts were, even they couldn't help losing composure now.

"Solomon King's power is already slowly waning. My King knows this, yet still puts his hopes in the illusory Ancient God... I cannot dissuade the two of them, so I can only stop you two."

Vashak's gentle, ethereal voice slowly rang out, recounting a shocking truth.

"I govern punishment. A Third Leader committing lèse‑majesté, the sin he bears must be..."

"After today, I'm willing to be dealt with by you, Samikina." Inside the milky-white Mecha, a man whose eyes were wrapped in a Black cloth slightly raised his head and spoke gently.

"Samikina..." Marbus in the [Prison Guard] looked toward his companion.

The three great leaders rarely showed themselves; on normal days, most of Solomon's affairs were overseen by him and Samikina.

Samikina, this middle‑aged man whose gaze was as silent as an iceberg, stayed wordless for a full sixty seconds.

"I believe the Prophet."

"But, Vashak, you have to let us see your prophecy actually happening in reality!"

With these words, Samikina directly spoke on behalf of the remaining Solomon Knights, who would all remain on standby!

The massive dark organization [Solomon], at this moment, would have only [Solomon King] and [Judge], these two peak forces, going up against Shura.

"The change in this world's Destiny has already begun... the choice of the Cosmic Will... has arrived..."

In Vashak's murmur, the Prophet Mecha's empty left hand gently pressed to its side.

White light gradually wove itself into a gigantic mirror surface.

And within that mirror surface, everything happening twenty thousand kilometers away was clearly reflected.

...

...

Even fighting Shura hadn't angered Solomon's King.

Yet Vashak's betrayal truly enraged him!

An ultra‑giant, violent thunderball condensed in an instant, once more covering the hundred‑kilometer space around Shura.

"Agares, now come with me and tell those traitors that we are, after all—Solomon's Kings!"

In Barr's fury, the attack frequency of [Solomon King] abruptly doubled.

And the [Judge] controlled by Agares always hid at the farthest distance, using the red, blue, purple, and yellow Light Beads to produce tens of millions of beams.

Every two beams superimposed would generate all kinds of terrifying explosions akin to nuclear fusion.

When four overlapped, they would condense into amber crystals, blocking the path forward.

These two Mecha standing at the peak of SSS‑class used methods as unfathomable as a Ghost God's to obstruct Shura!

Mu Fan's inner rage only grew stronger at this moment.

He had given himself a final ten minutes!

If it was still a stalemate—

Then he would use the Heart of Shura to reopen the Shura Domain!

From then on, it would be a life‑and‑death race between Shura and Kiara.

"You will never know what kind of existence you're about to face!"

Amid scorching breaths, Mu Fan's vision began to be stained with a deep crimson.

Thump, thump...

The half‑blossomed Red Lotus that represented the Heart of Shura began to fully surface.

The Red Lotus burned.

In the sight of Solomon King and Judge, Shura's Energy had already risen to a terrifying height.

Yet now, it climbed again!

"So you're going to unleash your trump card? Heh..."

Barr spoke indifferently.

But in that instant, a bold, unrestrained laugh suddenly cut into the public channel, like a giant stone hurled into a calm lake, sending up layer after layer of towering waves!

"That old bastard Wild by Gu Yunyou's side actually did show me a damn path forward."

"Hahahahaha!"

"You bastard of Solomon, your opponent is me—Ruan! Xiong! Fei!!"

Within that heaven‑shaking laughter—

A Thunderstorm as terrifying as a Nebula suddenly blasted out beyond that giant thunderball.

One step forward, his foot fell in space, stamping out countless arcs of electricity.

The soaring purple scarf behind him flared into a thousand‑meter stream of light.

It was also purple lightning, but unlike the grim majesty of Solomon King, who resembled a Deity.

This charging Thunderbolt Giant was filled with only—

Passion, arrogance, and unrestrained heroism!

"That's... Thunderhawk? Why is his Energy so strong?" Solomon King looked over, that neutral voice tinged with doubt.

"Because I go by Great Thunder Emperor now! You ball‑less idiot."

In that deep voice, he did nothing to hide his curses.

"Taste this move of mine—Netherworld Thunder Dragon!!"

Amid mad, hysterical laughter, that racing Thunderbolt Giant suddenly drew his arm back.

One punch!

From the void he ripped out thousands of twisted thunder serpents, merging them into a surging giant dragon that plunged straight into Solomon King's thunderball domain, which had already spread to a hundred kilometers ahead.

The next second, in utter silence.

It was like a whole planet detonated.

Purple Light Waves swept away every obstacle within a thousand kilometers!

Be it those meteorites, Star Bodies, debris, or…

that sea of thunder that had trapped Shura!

"Teacher!" Mu Fan's violently pounding heart stalled for a beat, his hoarse voice coming through.

"Mu Fan, leave that number-one ballsack Solomon to me. That marble-playing bastard, can you handle him?" Inside the CICH light sphere, Ruan Xiongfei's face twisted into a bloodthirsty grin.

The Great Thunder Emperor, boosted by the ultimate ruins engine[Nether Thunder], was enough for him to clash with Solomon King down to the molecular level.

Lightning versus lightning!

Only after they cancel out, is it a real man's fight.

The[Great Thunder Emperor]kicked out a gigantic thunderball, once again neutralizing[Solomon]'s Ten Thousand Thunder Prison!

The entire Mecha, carrying battle intent so wild it was about to explode, roared forward, crashing into the space a hundred meters before Solomon King.

Ruan Xiongfei's signature berserk Fighting, reappeared in that instant.

This was him—on the path of battle, forever arrogant—the Thunderbolt Fighting God!

A cruel smile tugged at the corners of Mu Fan's cold face as he stared grimly toward the distant[Judge].

"Three seconds!"

Right now, these two words carried a chilling sense of order and Decree.

Like the Executioner's final command.

"Hahahaha, then go fuck him up!"

"And then, go do what you're meant to do!"

Sparks surged all over the Great Thunder Emperor.

Two SSS‑class Emperor Body Mecha that could both enter a lightning state—every clash was like the stars collapsing in illusion; at last, they both began to show damage!

That foul-mouthed Bald man, at the last moment before the Shura Domain was forcibly opened ahead of time, streaked across the night like Lightning, arriving at the perfect moment.

From this point on, on the road ahead, there was only one…

Judge!

"Three seconds? What a big mouth." Agares's furious voice rang out.

Three thousand kilometers away, the[Judge]suddenly flung both hands wide, then slammed them together!

Rotating Light Beads wove into phantoms, countless streams of light blanketing the starry sky, all lancing toward Shura!

"Heh…"

"Hell Eight Gates Realm…"

"Shocking Gate—open!"

Mu Fan jerked his head up, blood mist erupting from every pore of his body.

The Energy gauge before his eyes plummeted straight to the bottom twice in a row!

Behind Shura, that black line separating two worlds surfaced for only a heartbeat.

But that was enough to turn all the burning Red Flame on its body, in an instant, into deep blue!!

[Warning, enemy Energy multiplier x1!]

[Warning, enemy Energy multiplier x2!]

...

[Warning, enemy Energy multiplier x10!]

With the final warning, Agares gaped, staring at that Mecha wrapped in blue flames.

Like a Demon God descending, it grabbed savagely to both sides.

Those Light-Source force fields that could rival ruins beams, even faintly carrying some sort of Cosmic rules…

were ripped open for ten thousand meters just like that!

The right arm drew back.

Then slammed forward with a boom!

The moment the fist swung out, it vanished.

A gigantic blue Light Fist, as tall as the Mecha itself, blasted forth.

The instant that punch appeared, the surrounding space visibly collapsed into starry phantoms.

The Seventh Gate—[Great, Flame, Prison]!

The ultimate move that had once annihilated[Dark South Planet]appeared once more.

That Light Fist was only the opening beat; tens of thousands of blue Stars surged upstream, charging against the opponent's four-colored river of light!

One strike, carrying the savagery to punch through the Galaxy itself, forced its way across three thousand kilometers!

The[Judge]still stood where it was.

The four-colored Light Beads had long merged into a gigantic crystalline Star Body.

Yet with every Light Fist that landed, a ring of phantom was blasted out from that crystal Star Body.

In the end, even light itself was warped by those blue Stars.

The light stream of the Great Flame Prison devoured the Judge, then twisted and vanished…

The Judgement Light Pearl that had filled the stars also disappeared at the same time…

In the place where the Judge had originally stood, a pure black "circle" about a hundred meters in diameter quietly appeared.

That one blow had punched out a micro black hole…

The universe seemed to instinctively try to heal the black hole, yet all around it space kept shattering and restoring like a mirror, grinding all matter into dust.

Withdraw the fist!

The Shura Domain that flared for a single second used its endless Pure Energy to maintain Shura's undying state after two full-on total overdrafts in a row.

And Mu Fan truly felt that terrifying pressure, so close it was almost within reach.

Next… would be the final battleground.

Mu Fan glanced back once at the two Mecha that were tearing through the sky full of thunder shadows.

"I'm going."

The immaturity of the past was gone; what Mu Fan left now was only these three words, carrying absolute belief in victory.

The Bone Fly flickered underfoot, lifting Shura up, slipping into the void.

From now on, there would be no more obstacles on the road ahead.

And within that thunder sea where two pinnacles clashed and surged, a laugh that grew bolder the more its owner was wounded, exploded across this silent space.

"Mu Fan, the thing I'm proudest of in this whole damn life… is that I got to be your teacher!!"
