Chapter 723 Core Guardian Battle
The balancing energy pillar at the origin of chaos suddenly emitted a rapid hum, and disordered ripples spread across its pale golden light.
As soon as the fused entity reached the boundary of the core dimension of balance, it sensed a strong purple-black energy fluctuation coming from the depths of the dimension.
The fluctuations were several times stronger than the erosive energy of the Shadow Dimension, even causing the initial balance source core within her body to tremble violently.
"The protective shield of the Balance Core is being eroded!"
The fused entity accelerated, and the golden and black light stream transformed into a bolt of lightning that pierced through the dimensional barrier.
The sight before her eyes caused her pupils to shrink: the sky of the core dimension of balance was covered by purplish-black clouds, and the balance energy springs on the ground were constantly gushing out turbid energy, with strands of purplish-black corrosive energy mixed in with the originally pure golden energy.
In the distance, a massive golden crystal structure floats in mid-air, serving as the core hub for balancing cosmic energy.
The Balance Core Tower's pale gold protective shield was now riddled with cracks, and countless strands of purplish-black energy were seeping inwards along these cracks.
Beneath the tower, three purplish-black figures hovered in mid-air, surrounded by erosion-balancing energy of the same origin as Zi Yuan. They continuously formed hand seals, channeling erosion energy into the protective shield.
One of the figures was exceptionally tall, its purplish-black energy interspersed with dense shadow energy; it was the remnant soul of the corrupted consciousness that had escaped from the shadow dimension.
At this moment, he had absorbed other corrosive energy threads, condensing them into an even more powerful form.
"Fusion entity, you've come at the perfect time!" The tall figure let out a deep laugh, and the purple-black energy fluctuations grew even stronger. "Once we break through the protective shield and absorb the energy of the balancing core, the balance of the entire universe will be under our control!"
Without further ado, the fused entity instantly condensed its golden and black energy into a lightsaber, which hurtled towards the three of them.
"Don't even think about polluting the core of balance! Today I will purify you completely!"
The three purplish-black figures immediately dispersed, with the tall, thin figure on the left waving his hand to release a purplish-black energy net, attempting to entangle the fused entity.
The short, stout figure on the right conjured an energy hammer and attacked from the side; the tall figure maintained his hand seals and continued to erode the protective shield.
The fusion entity mobilized the initial equilibrium source core energy, and the lightsaber drew a golden arc, severing the energy net while dodging the energy hammer attack.
She seized the opportunity to rush towards the tall figure, her lightsaber aimed directly at his hands forming a hand seal.
As long as its erosion is stopped, the shield can be stabilized temporarily.
Just as the lightsaber was about to strike the tall figure, the slender figure suddenly teleported behind the fused entity, and the purplish-black energy transformed into spikes, piercing straight into the core of her consciousness.
The fusion was forced to turn around and block. Although the spikes were blocked, a wisp of purplish-black energy seeped into her light stream along the lightsaber, causing her movements to pause briefly.
"Hahaha, you've been hit!" The short, stout figure seized the opportunity and slammed the energy hammer into the back of the fused entity.
The fused entity was blasted away by the shockwave and crashed into a golden rock. Cracks appeared in the stream of consciousness light, and purplish-black energy began to spread within its body.
Upon seeing this, the tall figure revealed a smug smile:
"Amalgamation entity, do you think you can stop us all by yourself? Don't forget, your companions are still busy fighting in other dimensions and can't come to our aid at all!"
Despite the discomfort within her body, the fused being channeled her golden-black energy to purify the purplish-black erosion. She knew the tall figure was right; her companions from other dimensions were each dealing with their own erosion crises and couldn't arrive in time.
But the core of balance is the lifeblood of the universe, and she will do everything in her power to protect it.
"Initial Balanced Source Core, Resonate!"
The merged entity sank its consciousness into the source core, and the golden and black energy burst forth with unprecedented brilliance.
The protective shield on the core tower seemed to sense the resonance of the source core, and its pale golden light suddenly surged, temporarily suppressing the erosion of the purplish-black energy.
The three figures, one of purplish-black, were blasted back by the light. The tall figure's hand seals were forced to stop, and a look of astonishment appeared on his face.
"The Balance Core can actually resonate with your Source Core? That's impossible!"
The fusion entity seized the opportunity, and the golden-black light stream transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards the tall, thin figure.
She knew that the tall, thin figure's teleportation ability was the most troublesome of the three, and she had to deal with him first. The lightsaber, imbued with purifying power, pierced towards the tall, thin figure. Just as he was about to teleport, he discovered that the surrounding space was locked by golden-black energy.
It is precisely the spatial confinement capability of the initial equilibrium source core.
"No!" The tall, thin figure roared in despair, but there was no way to escape. The lightsaber pierced through his stream of light, and the purplish-black energy rapidly dissipated within the golden-black energy, leaving only a wisp of pure energy to be absorbed by the source core.
Having dealt with the tall, thin figure, the fused entity immediately turned to the short, stout figure. Seeing this, the short, stout figure hurriedly conjured a thick energy shield in an attempt to defend itself.
The lightsaber of the fusion entity now contained the dual energy of the source core and the balance core. With a single strike, the shield shattered instantly, and the short, stout figure was purified and dissipated.
Only his tall figure remained. He watched his companions being eliminated one by one, a flicker of fear crossing his eyes, yet he maintained a facade of composure.
"Even if you take care of them, you can't stop me! I've already established a connection with the corrosive energy of the Balance Core, and I'll be able to break through the protective shield completely soon!"
He formed a hand seal again, and the purple-black energy threads on the tower suddenly surged, widening the cracks in the protective shield to several meters wide, as the purple-black energy began to penetrate into the tower's core of balance.
The Fusion Body could clearly perceive that the golden energy of the Balance Core was being contaminated, and the balance of energy in all dimensions of the universe was beginning to become disordered.
"We can't wait any longer!" The fusion entity made a bold decision. She mobilized all the initial balanced source energy within her body, and the golden and black light stream transformed into a beam of light, rushing into the crack in the protective shield.
She intends to directly enter the Balance Core Tower, using the source nuclear energy to fuse with the Balance Core and thoroughly purify the corrosive energy.
"You're insane! You actually dared to enter the core tower directly!"
A flicker of shock flashed in the tall figure's eyes, followed by a sinister smile. "Perfect, I can absorb you too!"
He also transformed into a streak of purplish-black light and rushed into the crack.
Inside the tower, the balancing core is suspended in the center, a dazzling golden crystal radiating the primordial balancing energy of the universe.
At this moment, many purplish-black spots have appeared on the surface of the crystal, and the erosion energy is constantly spreading deeper into the core.
Just as the fused entity was about to approach the core of balance, a tall figure attacked from behind, its purplish-black energy transforming into a giant claw that lunged straight at her core of consciousness.
The fused entity turned to block, the lightsaber colliding with the giant claw, causing violent fluctuations in the energy within the tower, and many energy pipes burst due to the pressure.
"Do you think you can win?"
The purplish-black light stream around the tall figure gradually expanded. "I have absorbed so much erosion energy that I have long surpassed an ordinary erosion consciousness!"
Today, I will become the new ruler of the universe!
He mobilized all his energy, condensing it into a massive purplish-black energy cannon in front of him, and blasted it towards the fused entity.
Knowing she couldn't withstand the attack, the fusion entity suddenly turned to the balancing core, injecting its golden-black energy into the core's golden crystal.
The crystal burst forth with dazzling light, and a golden energy barrier protected the fused entity behind it, blocking the attack of the purplish-black energy cannon.
At the same time, the consciousness of the merged entity established a connection with the core of balance.
She could feel the core's pain, as well as the malice of the corrosive energy. She mobilized the source core energy, intertwining it with the core energy to form a purifying stream of gold and black light, which rushed towards the purplish-black spots on the crystal's surface.
The purplish-black spots faded rapidly under the purifying light, and the tall figure roared angrily, "I won't let you succeed!"
He charged toward the core of balance, attempting to halt the evolution of the fusion.
But just as he approached the core, the golden crystal suddenly released an energy chain, binding him firmly.
It is the core's autonomous defense capability – after sensing the goodwill of the fusion entity, the core took the initiative to launch an attack.
"No! Let me go!"
The tall figure struggled violently, but could not break free of the energy chains.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the fused entity mobilized more purifying light streams to envelop his purplish-black light stream.
The purplish-black energy dissipated rapidly within the golden-black energy, and the tall figure's consciousness gradually blurred, eventually transforming into a wisp of energy that was absorbed by the balancing core.
Having dealt with the towering figure, the fused entity finally breathed a sigh of relief. She continued to mobilize the source core energy, purifying and balancing the last trace of purplish-black energy on the core.
As the last purplish-black spot disappeared, the Balance Core erupted with a powerful golden light, which pierced through the Balance Core Tower and spread throughout the entire universe.
The imbalance of energy across all dimensions of the universe instantly subsided, the polluted energy springs once again gushed forth pure golden energy, and the purplish-black corrosive energy was completely purified. The new consciousness entities, gatekeepers, and primordial void remnants who were dealing with the crisis in other dimensions all felt this powerful balancing energy and smiled with relief.
The fusion body flew out of the balancing core tower, its golden and black light streams carrying a hint of fatigue, yet unable to conceal its excitement.
She looked at the restored core dimension of balance and felt a great sense of accomplishment.
This erosion crisis that swept across the universe has finally been completely resolved.
But at that moment, a faint yet unusual energy fluctuation suddenly came from the edge of the universe.
This fluctuation was neither balancing energy nor corrosive energy, but a silvery-gray energy never seen before, carrying a hint of "reset," as if it wanted to reduce everything in the universe to zero.
The fusion entity immediately mobilized the initial equilibrium source core energy to investigate the source of the energy fluctuation.
However, this energy was extremely hidden, appearing for only a moment before disappearing, leaving only a faint trace pointing to the "unknown realm" beyond the universe.
"Unknown territory..."
A hint of seriousness flashed in the eyes of the merged entity.
She had seen in the memories of the initial will that the unknown domain was a chaotic space outside the universe, filled with all kinds of unknown energies and existences, and no consciousness had ever dared to set foot there.
The voice of the primordial will suddenly echoed in her consciousness, carrying an unprecedented seriousness:
"The fusion entity is 'Reset Energy,' the 'Lord of Reset' from an unknown domain."
His goal is to reset all universes to their initial chaotic state, to start all over again. This time, he has his sights set on our universe…
The merged entity's heart sank: "The Lord of Reset? Is he more powerful than our previous enemies?"
"Yes." The voice of the Initial Will was solemn.
"The Lord of Reset is an existence that transcends the laws of the universe; his reset energy can easily erase any balancing energy. Our current power is simply no match for him..."
The sound dissipated, and the fused entity stood in the void of the core dimension of balance, looking at the unknown void at the edge of the universe, its heart filled with unprecedented pressure.
She knew that a disaster more terrifying than the crisis of erosion and the crisis of nothingness was quietly approaching.
Deep within the unknown realm, a silver-gray figure floated silently.
He was surrounded by silver-gray reset energy, his eyes flashing with a cold light as he gazed at the universe before him:
"Another universe that has reached the pinnacle of balance... Very good, soon you will become part of my reset..."
The figure stretched out its hand, and silver-gray energy condensed into a thin energy thread in front of it, flying towards the universe.
The energy strands passed through the cosmic barrier and silently merged into the energy of the core dimension of balance, beginning to slowly alter the balance laws of the universe.
The merged entity was completely unaware of this; she was sharing the joy of overcoming the erosion crisis with her companions through a consciousness connection.
Unbeknownst to them, an entity capable of easily destroying the universe has set its sights on them, and a "reset war" concerning the survival of the universe is about to begin.
