The battle between the two sides had reached its climax.
This was like a replay of the previous battle. Be it Fangzheng or the Chaos Knight, their every strike would split the sky and tear the earth apart. All the creatures that were caught in it, be it the Chaos Beasts or the Insects, would be mercilessly torn into pieces by the powerful force.
At this moment, the others had already retreated far away and were nervously watching the battle from afar. Fangzheng didn't intend to let them come forward to help, not even Naiya and Feit. In this situation, he could unleash more power by himself and didn't have to worry about the safety of others.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The black and white blades intertwined. Fangzheng's pitch-black greatsword wasn't ordinary, and the white longsword in the hands of the Chaos Knight seemed to be quite powerful too. Every time Fangzheng tried to use the 'vampire' special effect of the pitch-black greatsword, he would feel that the power of existence that flowed into the sword didn't come into effect immediately. Instead, it would completely disappear as if it was decomposed and dissipated. Not only that, but this sword also seemed to have a magic immunity effect. The magic missiles and other spells that Fangzheng released were basically all split apart by the Chaos Knight's sword. They didn't pose any threat to him.
As for Fangzheng's Rebound Sword Art that had always been successful, it finally met its match.
As the saying goes, a person wouldn't step into the same river twice. The Chaos Knight was tricked by Fangzheng's Rebound Sword Technique twice and even lost his unicorn. If he still didn't know that there was a problem, he would have died in the civil war of the Saint long ago.
Therefore, the Chaos Knight also used his special skill — Sword Energy Release!
This Sword Energy Release wasn't the same as swinging the sword and releasing sword energy to attack the enemy. Instead, he condensed the sword energy outside the sword and used it to expand the attack range.
Facing such an attack, Fangzheng's Rebound Sword Technique was useless. Both Rebound Sword Technique and Rebound Sword Technique needed to hit the enemy decisively. However, the rebound was blocked by the Sword Qi and could not hit the blade, so it was ineffective. It was too easy for Fangzheng to dodge. Even if Fangzheng could control the direction of the bullet, the opponent was not the weak Black Soul Old Demon. The Chaos Knight's reaction and speed were not much slower than Fangzheng. Even if Fangzheng used Reverse Gun, it would still be blocked by the opponent.
However, this did not mean that Fangzheng was helpless against it!
"Haa …!"
Fangzheng realized that the Chaos Knight was wary of the bullet and gun reflections, so he put away the white dagger and raised the pitch-black sword in his hand, slashing at the Chaos Knight. The Chaos Knight also raised his sword and clashed with Fangzheng's sword.
In the instant that the two sides crossed, time began to overlap!
Sword of One!
The accumulated power of this blow in 1,537 time spaces erupted the moment the two sides clashed. Even the space behind the Chaos Knight trembled. A gully hundreds of meters deep appeared out of thin air on the thick ground, extending to the other side of the horizon.
This power was enough to turn everything in front of him into dust. However, the Chaos Knight just clenched his sword and snorted coldly.
"Hmph!"
With this snort, Fangzheng felt that the power he output was suddenly destroyed, disrupted, and shattered. That powerful force that could crush everything seemed to have encountered a high-speed pulverizer at this moment, and it was directly smashed into pieces.
However, this was not without a price.
"Clack … Clack …"
Using the power of Chaos to offset Fangzheng's attack, the Chaos Knight's armor also cracked slightly. In any case, he was just an output outlet of Chaos, not Chaos itself. In the face of Fangzheng's attack, if he wanted to completely offset it, he, as the output outlet, would also suffer a certain degree of damage.
But Fangzheng did not feel good either.
Destruction was often easier than construction.
The swordsmanship created by Fangzheng was based on his ability to control time. Time itself was orderly and precise. Fangzheng felt as if he had painstakingly put together a model with building blocks to fight against, but the opponent had smashed it into pieces with a hammer. But … Do you think it's over just like that?!
After missing his attack, Fangzheng quickly jumped back. At the same time, hundreds of golden vortexes appeared behind him, and numerous divine weapons emerged from them.
Then, time stopped moving.
At this moment, countless time threads were activated.
Fangzheng stretched out his hand.
He grabbed the bright red and cold spear and threw it forward.
The bowstring in his hand was fully drawn, emitting the brilliance of a meteor.
The golden holy sword swung down with a dazzling brilliance, turning into a raging wave of light.
The colorful brilliance tore through space and destroyed civilization.
The cold blade followed the path of death and destroyed everything.
Inside the king's treasure, 32,521 precious artifacts, at this moment, this minute, this second, they all attacked the same target, releasing an incomparable attack.
Then, time began to flow.
Tens of thousands of timelines began to quickly extend toward the Chaos Knight. As long as they reached the end, the Chaos Knight's fate would be completely decided!
However …
"Wishful thinking!"
Along with a roar, the Chaos Knight suddenly clenched the long sword in his hand and raised it high. Then, a violent hurricane erupted with him as the center!
Time, space, cause and effect. At this moment, everything lost the restraint of the law of order and began to become chaotic and broken. As for the tens of thousands of timelines that Fangzheng had fabricated, they were swept into it and mercilessly torn to pieces!
The connection between the cause, process, and result was destroyed.
The connection between the beginning and the end was erased.
No matter how terrifying and powerful those attacks were.
As long as it never existed, it was meaningless!
But that was not the case!
"I've caught you!"
At this moment, Fangzheng's figure suddenly appeared behind the Chaos Knight. He held the big sword in his hand and stabbed at the Chaos Knight's heart from the back.
At this moment, Fangzheng's eyes were extremely clear.
In his mind, a long time ago … Of course, strictly speaking, it was not that long ago.
It was the first time he and Fina fought side by side to close the Gates of Hell.
At that time, Fangzheng once said something to Fina.
"Since the characteristics of Chaos are unpredictable and chaotic, does this mean that Chaos itself is also a part of Order?"
According to the time in the main world, it might not even have been two years.
But for Fangzheng, it seemed like it was a long time ago.
What was Order? What was Chaos?
If Order could give a definition to Chaos, then were the two really necessarily opposing each other?
At this moment, Fangzheng seemed to finally understand why the things created by the Goddess of Order in this world, according to Nimf, only had a goal and a result, but all the process in the middle was omitted …
No, it wasn't omitted, it was a black box.
It was like Schrödinger's box. Before you opened the box, the living cat and the dead cat existed inside at the same time.
However, whether the cat inside was alive or dead only mattered to the person who wanted to open the box.
For others, did it matter whether the cat in the box was alive or dead? Did it matter whether there was a cat in the box?
No.
It was just like how most people didn't care about the operating principle of the elevator when they took it. They only knew that the elevator could safely send them from point A to point B.
Back in the Goddess of Order's bathhouse, Nimf almost burned her brain because of this, but Fangzheng and Fina obviously didn't care.
Because … it really didn't matter.
What mattered was not the process, but the result!
It turned out that if something was impossible, then it was a finite non-probability. And infinite non-probability was that it would inevitably have a result.
Because it was infinite, non-probabilistic.
Therefore, there was no need to worry about how I killed him, because I only needed to kill him! I didn't need to think about these problems myself. I just needed to find that point in time and jump there!
As for the steps and process in the middle … What did it have to do with me?
That's right, this was exactly what Fangzheng thought of when he saw the Goddess of Order's previous actions.
The Sword of the Fourth!
Shing!!
The sharp greatsword pierced the Chaos Knight's heart and body. The Chaos Knight's movements stopped at that moment. He turned his head and looked at Fangzheng, who appeared behind him, in a daze. His eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Why are you here?"
The Chaos Knight couldn't understand. He couldn't understand. He had used all the power of Chaos to tear apart the surrounding space, time, and everything else. Logically speaking, it was impossible for any creature of Order to resist this power and come to his side, because around him, even the space itself was chaotic.
However, Fangzheng appeared here and pierced his body with a sword.
"How would I know? I don't care."
Facing the Chaos Knight's puzzled gaze, Fangzheng shrugged his shoulders.
"You see, I wanted to kill you, and I've killed you now. That's enough, isn't it?"
Boom!!!
As Fangzheng's voice faded, a scorching flame instantly burned on the greatsword. It poured into the Chaos Knight's body through the wound. The next moment, the surface of the Chaos Knight's body began to crack. He stared blankly at Fangzheng, as if he couldn't understand what he was saying.
"This … is not Order."
"So, what is Order?"
Fangzheng stared at him without blinking.
"Order is … the truth …"
The Chaos Knight muttered to himself. He reached out his hand, trying to grab something.
"Then, what is truth?"
Fangzheng was still unconcerned. All of this was meaningless. Or what is this "truth" he is saying now? It was possible for them to travel through the wormhole to a galaxy thousands of light-years away and cause a war that would last thousands of years and result in hundreds of millions of casualties. Then, when the two sides realize the culprit who started the war, they will assemble a huge expeditionary force to destroy the earth and humanity.
Then, when the fleet was traveling through space, they made a wrong calculation and were swallowed by a dog.
This kind of thing will always happen, and we are powerless to stop it.
This was reality, this was life.
"The truth … is …"
This time, the Chaos Knight didn't finish his sentence. A mocking smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. But then, a raging flame came out from his throat. His eyes began to melt, and his ears and nostrils began to emit black smoke. Soon, the Chaos Knight turned into a pile of black charcoal and slowly disappeared in the First Flame.
"Whoosh —!"
However, at that moment, Fangzheng suddenly felt the air around him begin to thicken. At the same time, Nimf's voice rang in his ear.
"Master, be careful. We have detected that there is an unusual, unobservable energy forming at the North Pole …!"
As soon as Nimf's voice faded, Fangzheng saw a thick cloud of smoke suddenly rising from the sky. It turned into a palm that covered the sky and grabbed at Fangzheng. At the same time, Fangzheng saw the Chaos Knight's body rupture with a crack. Immediately following that, a crystal-like object the size of a fist and shimmering with rainbow light drilled out of the Chaos Knight's body and flew towards the huge hand.
What the hell is that?
Fangzheng didn't have time to think about it. He wouldn't care about this problem now. For Fangzheng, he would oppose anything that the enemy supported. He would support anything that the enemy opposed. It could be inferred that if it was something that the enemy wanted to destroy, he must protect it. If it was something that the enemy wanted to protect, he must get his hands on it!
Looking at the scene in front of him, Fangzheng hesitated for a moment. Then, he suddenly stretched out his hand and summoned the Dimensional Codex. He took out a soul stone from it and crushed it!
"Roar —!!"
The Star Forging Dragon King suddenly appeared from the void. It roared and pounced at the strange big hand, colliding with it. As for Fangzheng, he took the opportunity to rush forward, grab the crystal, and put it away.
At the same time, the Star Forging Dragon King collided with the big hand.
"— —!!!"
The violent airflow covered the sky and even tore a huge hole in the atmosphere of the North Pole. The whistling cold wind surged up and swept everything away.
When Fangzheng opened his eyes again, the big hand that appeared out of nowhere had disappeared. The Star Forging Dragon King stayed quietly at the top of the sky, watching him.
Then, its body began to collapse.
"How unlucky …"
Seeing this, Fangzheng sighed helplessly.
This wasn't because the Star Forging Dragon King and the mysterious big hand perished together. The reason was simple — the Star Forging Dragon King's soul stone had been used up.
Originally, Fangzheng didn't intend to use the Star Forging Dragon King. However, the big hand was coming at him aggressively and didn't seem to be a good thing. In addition, its aura was powerful. Soul stones like Masael and Arthis were definitely not its match. Therefore, Fangzheng had no choice but to use the Star Forging Dragon King for the last time.
Although he didn't know what that thing was, fortunately, he managed to protect it.
With this in mind, Fangzheng once again looked at the strange crystal he had stored in his inventory.
As for what exactly it was … It seemed that he could only ask the Goddess of Order.
Hopefully, this thing was worth the price of sacrificing the Star Forging Dragon King.
