Chapter 76: The Cracks Spread!
The abyss returned to complete calm, and the golden light from the core of the rules emitted a soft and stable glow, enveloping the entire multidimensional universe in order. However, Isaac's gaze remained cold, fixed on the barely perceptible crack deep within the core.
Although he has cleared away the traces of chaos and reshaped the order of the universe, the crack in the core of the rules is like a seed that has never sprouted, lurking in the foundation of the rules and becoming a hidden danger.
[Warning! The fissure propagation rate in the core of the rule is accelerating, and the current energy stability has dropped to 95%.]
The system's notification made Isaac frown slightly. He gently waved his hand, and the power of the core rules quickly condensed, attempting to seal the rift. However, the runes on the rift became even more complex under the golden light, seemingly resisting the power of the rules.
"System, analyze the energy composition of the fissure," Isaac commanded coldly.
[Ding! Residual chaotic energy detected within the rift, partially overlapping with the origin of the rules. Warning! The rift is absorbing the power of the core of the rules, forming an unknown energy form.]
Isaac's gaze turned slightly cold. He had pushed the rules to their peak, but this rift seemed to have reached the limit of the power of the rules, and was even beginning to transform into some kind of new existence.
Just as Isaac was attempting to further seal the rift, a deep tremor suddenly resounded in the void. This tremor spread outward from the center of the core of the rules, reaching every corner of the multidimensional universe.
[Warning! An unusual energy fluctuation has been detected at the boundary of the multidimensional universe, suspected to be related to the spread of the core fissure.]
"Energy fluctuations?" Isaac raised his head, his cold gaze sweeping into the depths of the void.
He could sense a powerful force slowly approaching from the edge of the universe. This force did not come from the outside, but rather from some kind of echo within the universe, as if a crack in the core of the rules was awakening some long-dormant beings.
"The rift in the core of the rules actually has such an effect..." Isaac muttered to himself, a cold, thoughtful look in his eyes.
Just then, a dazzling light suddenly burst forth from the rift deep within the core. This light was neither gold nor darkness, but a strange color mixed with complex runes, as if it had merged rules and chaos together.
“Isaac…” A deep voice came from the crack, carrying an undeniable pressure that seemed to pierce the soul.
Isaac's gaze turned cold. He raised his hand and waved it, and the golden light of the core of the rules quickly spread, completely enveloping the crack.
"What is it now?" Isaac asked coldly.
“I am the beginning of the rules, and I am also the end of the rules,” the deep voice said. “You think that by controlling the rules you can escape the shackles of chaos? You’re wrong. The rules themselves are just another form of chaos, and you are nothing more than a doomed attempt.”
“Absurd.” Isaac scoffed, his eyes filled with icy fighting spirit.
"Rules and chaos are one," the voice continued. "You destroy chaos, but you cannot change the essence of rules. And now, the rift will become the starting point for them to reunite."
Isaac did not answer. He suddenly swung his hand, and the power of the core rules transformed into countless sharp chains, piercing straight into the core area of the rift.
The chains tore through the void with unparalleled power, heading straight for the rift. However, just as the chains were about to touch the rift, the runes within it suddenly lit up, and an indescribable energy surged out, repelling the chains completely.
boom--!
A massive shockwave erupted from the crack, and the entire core of the rules trembled violently in the impact.
[Warning! The stability of the Rule Core has dropped to 80%. The rate of fissure energy diffusion is accelerating. The host is advised to take immediate action.]
"Take action immediately?" Isaac sneered, a chill flashing in his eyes.
"System, upgrade the core rules to an unlimited capacity state," Isaac commanded coldly.
[Ding! The core rules have been upgraded to an unlimited capacity state, and the current energy carrying capacity has been increased to 3000%.]
With the system notification, Isaac's golden light surged once more, the radiance like a burning flame, enveloping the entire core of the rules.
"The power of the rift will eventually return to nothingness." Isaac uttered, and with another wave of his hand, the power of the core rules transformed into a massive longsword, slashing straight at the core of the rift.
As the longsword slashed down, golden light exploded, causing the entire core of the rules to tremble. However, the cracks did not disappear; instead, they became even more cohesive. The strange runes spun wildly under the impact of the golden light, as if undergoing some unknown evolution.
"Isaac, your power of rules will only make the rift stronger." The deep voice rang out again, carrying an undeniable mockery.
"Make it stronger?" Isaac sneered. "Let me destroy it with my own hands!"
He suddenly raised his hand, and the power of the core rules rapidly condensed, transforming into a massive magic array. The runes on the array spun rapidly, releasing countless golden light blades that rained down on every corner of the rift.
The rift trembled violently, and its radiance began to dim. However, just as the light blade was about to completely annihilate the rift, an even more powerful energy erupted from its depths.
"Isaac, your rules can never shake the power of the source." A deep voice said softly, and then a blurry figure slowly emerged from the crack.
The figure spun like a vortex, its body composed of countless runes and energy flows, radiating an indescribable sense of oppression. Isaac could feel that this being's power even surpassed that of all the enemies he had faced.
"Who are you?" Isaac asked coldly.
"I am the beginning of the rules, and the end of chaos," the figure said in a deep voice. "From this moment on, you will witness the end of the rules."
There was no fear in Isaac's eyes. He stared coldly at his opponent, and the longsword in his hand materialized once more.
"No matter what you are, you cannot shake the foundation of the rules," Isaac said in a low voice, his tone filled with unquestionable authority.
The figure smiled slightly, and his body suddenly expanded, countless runes surging from within him, transforming into a massive halo. This halo carried unparalleled power, directly impacting every corner of the core of the rules.
Isaac did not back down. He suddenly waved his hand, and the golden light of the core of the rules quickly transformed into an absolute barrier, blocking all the power of the halo from the outside.
"System, fully activate the strongest form of the core rules," Isaac commanded coldly.
[Ding! The core rules have entered their strongest form, with current carrying capacity increased to 3500%.]
With the system notification, Isaac's aura surged once more. His gaze was as cold as a knife, and the longsword in his hand transformed into a gigantic blade thousands of feet long.
"No matter what you are, you will be annihilated by the power of the rules." Isaac roared, his figure vanished abruptly, and reappeared in the core area of that figure in the next instant.
As the longsword slashed down, golden light exploded, causing the entire core of the rules to tremble.
