My attributes are increasing infinitely Chapter 397: Millions of axiom dominion beings
Previously on My attributes are increasing infinitely...
The Kizuki general wasted no time.
He lunged forward, appearing as nothing more than a streak of azure lightning.
Within the Axiom realm, velocity was more than mere physical speed; it was the divine ability to collapse the distance between two points instantly.
A hundred yards vanished in a heartbeat, and his dragon-bone blade was suddenly a mere inch from Goku’s neck.
"Die, peasant!" the general bellowed.
Goku’s gaze remained steady, his eyes not even flickering.
His physical form reacted instinctively.
This was the ultimate state of Ultra Instinct, now fueled by the profound laws of a God.
With a subtle tilt of his head, the sharp blade whistled past his ear, severing nothing but a few loose strands of silver hair.
"Whoa! That was fast!" Goku chuckled.
He countered with a gentle palm strike against the general’s breastplate.
Boom!
The Kizuki general was launched backward, hurtling across the vast, infinite arena.
He slammed into the invisible boundaries of the domain, his reinforced armor shattering like fragile glass.
Golden blood sprayed from his mouth as his eyes widened in utter disbelief.
Despite being a master who had survived countless eras, a mere "tap" from this newcomer had completely crushed his ribs.
"Next!" Goku cried out, his battle lust intensifying.
Driven by sudden panic, four more generals abandoned the rules of honorable combat and rushed forward together.
They unleashed their supreme treasures: a bell designed to freeze the flow of time, a spear capable of piercing through dimensions, a fan that birthed black holes, and a shield crafted from the hide of a primordial star.
Goku showed no signs of concern.
A radiant, blinding white light began to emanate from his body.
"Haaaaaaa!"
The force of Goku’s roar caused the entire Ultimate Domain to tremble.
He moved with such incredible speed that he appeared to occupy four different positions simultaneously.
He struck the dimension-piercing spear, snapping the weapon in two.
With a powerful kick, he sent the star-shield spiraling away into the dark void.
He reached out, catching the time-freezing bell and crushing it within his palm.
In mere moments, five Axiom-level generals were sprawled across the white floor, their divine powers neutralized and their spirits broken.
Goku stood at the center of the carnage, his breathing perfectly calm.
The sixteen remaining generals stared in horror at their defeated comrades.
The Kizuki general struggled to his feet, his features twisted by a desperate and unsightly fury.
It was clear to him now that standard laws and martial arts would never be enough to secure victory.
"You forced my hand!" the Kizuki general shrieked.
He plunged his hand into his own chest, extracting a small, vibrating black box.
This was the Heart of a void creature, a forbidden artifact harvested from a deceased Eternal Sovereign realm void beast.
When the box was unsealed, a tide of "Anti-Existence" surged throughout the arena.
This was a catastrophic power that even an Axiom Dominion expert should never dare to touch.
It represented the absolute negation of life and energy.
Goku’s brilliant silver radiance started to flicker and fade.
He attempted to strike the air, but the shadowy mist clung to his limbs, siphoning away his vitality.
He dropped to one knee, his silver hair reverting to its natural black state.
"It’s over!" the general cackled with manic glee.
"This treasure annihilates the very concept of ’strength’! You are being reduced to a mortal once more!"
Watching from his throne, Ethan tilted his head curiously.
He observed the black box.
"That’s quite a nasty little toy," he remarked quietly.
"However, it is still governed by laws. And in this place, I am the one who dictates those laws."
Ethan gave a sharp snap of his fingers.
"You are no longer just a single man.
You are the King of the Dragon Cluster."
Instantly, the black mist didn't just dissipate; it was violently expelled.
Goku rose, his aura undergoing a profound transformation.
The silver was replaced by a deep, swirling cosmic gold, echoing with the trillions of "voices" belonging to the beings residing within Ethan’s internal worlds.
Goku’s roar resounded like the simultaneous birth of a thousand universes.
He surged forward, completely impervious to the "Anti-Existence" fog.
Then, he snatched the black box and consumed it.
Quite literally.
He swallowed the entire forbidden treasure in one gulp.
"Burp," Goku uttered, as a flicker of dark energy danced within his pupils.
"That tasted like sour grapes."
The generals stood frozen in terror.
They didn't even attempt to flee.
Goku tore through their ranks like a reaper harvesting wheat.
A single punch, a lone kick, a burst of azure energy—none could withstand him.
Within a minute, all twenty-one generals were heaped in the center of the arena, paralyzed and broken.
Ethan rose from his throne and descended the invisible staircase.
"Excellent work, Goku," Ethan praised.
"Those guys were tough!" Goku replied, returning to his usual self while scratching the back of his head.
"Can we have another go sometime?"
"Perhaps," Ethan said with a smile.
With a wave of his hand, a soft sound echoed.
Poof.
Goku disappeared.
The "Warrior of the Narrative" was converted back into raw data and filed away within the Dragon Ball world inside Ethan’s body.
For Ethan, this had merely been a fascinating test to see if his summoned entities could contend with real-world "NPCs."
Ethan gazed down at the twenty-one shattered generals.
"My World Tree is hungry," Ethan murmured.
The floor beneath the generals split open.
Massive, luminous roots bristling with eyes and mouths erupted from the abyss.
The tree feasted upon their Axiom laws, their memories, and their very essences.
Ethan felt a wave of heat bloom in his chest.
The World Tree expanded tenfold in a flash, its foliage now shimmering with the "Positive" energy it had previously lacked.
The requirements for the five positive beings were now not only fulfilled but surpassed.
Ethan deactivated the Ultimate Domain.
He stood once more in the desolate grey void of the trial grounds.
He felt more powerful than ever before.
Yet, before he could catch his breath, the very foundations of the universe began to wail.
A frigid, mechanical voice resonated across every dimension, planet, and soul in existence.
It was the decree of the Will of the Eternal domain.
[WORLD WIDE ANNOUNCEMENT]
[The Anomaly, Ethan Hunt, has surpassed a forbidden threshold.]
[Every participant in the Trial of the Throne of Destiny is hereby granted the temporary strength of an Axiom Dominion Realm being and permitted free passage into all realities.]
[A universal mission has been decreed: Execute Ethan Hunt.]
[The person who delivers the killing blow shall receive two wishes. These wishes can alter any law, resurrect any soul, or bestow the title of Supreme Ruler of Reality.]
[The hunt commences now.]
Boom!
The stars themselves shook from the weight of the announcement.
Every candidate felt an unrestrained power flooding their veins.
They were all elevated to the same power level as the generals Ethan had just annihilated.
Ethan stood solitary in the void.
He could sense it.
Millions of "Axiom" signatures were igniting across the multiverse like a swarm of enraged wasps.
Each one was a "protagonist" of their own story, and they now possessed the ultimate incentive to destroy him.
Ethan let out a long sigh.
He glanced at the "empty" firmament above.
"I simply stumbled upon the truth," Ethan stated, his tone sharp and freezing.
"That is all.
Why must you go to such lengths to kill me?"
He scanned the horizon.
Innumerable portals were tearing open.
The first wave of challengers was already drawing near.
There were thousands of them, each emitting a pressure that would crush a standard Axiom Dominion expert.
They cracked their knuckles, their eyes burning with the greed for those "two wishes."
"You are choosing to make an irreconcilable enemy out of me for no good reason," Ethan whispered.
His hair began to sway as his Origin Paragon aura surged to confront the approaching tempest.
"Once I shatter these chains of yours, you motherfuckers will have nowhere left to hide."
Ethan unsheathed the Sword of Infinity.
The weapon didn’t just radiate light; it vibrated with the collective hum of a billion worlds.
He stood alone against a million "gods," but for the first time, there was no pretense.
He was prepared to paint the void in blood.
