Chapter 104: The Arrival of the Lord of Nothingness
As Isaac's words fell, the void began to tremble violently, and the laws of the entire universe seemed to have lost their power at that moment. The surrounding space seemed to be torn apart, and darkness surged in like a tidal wave, swallowing all light and existence. Isaac stood in this boundless void, his eyes flashing with unwavering determination, feeling the oppressive force emanating from all directions—the power of nothingness, seemingly capable of devouring everything he possessed. However, his body did not yield; instead, it became even more resolute, like steel.
“Nothingness…” Isaac murmured softly, his gaze gradually calming. Facing all this, he felt no fear, but rather a surge of intense fighting spirit. He had once believed himself to be an all-powerful being, his Celestial Dragon status allowing him to look down upon all living beings. But now, standing at the edge of the universe, he understood that this power from nothingness was the true path of the strong. All the rules and laws of the universe seemed insignificant before it; even the existence of time and space was completely obliterated before nothingness.
But Isaac has never feared any challenge. No matter how powerful the enemy, how unknown the force, he has defeated them all. Now, standing before nothingness, he still has no reason to retreat. He has come this far; there is no turning back.
Suddenly, a deep laugh echoed from the void, reverberating like thunder in Isaac's heart, as if it were an echo from the depths of the universe. "You finally understand, Celestial Dragon," the Lord of Nothingness said, his voice calm and majestic. "You thought you could control everything and transcend the rules of the universe, but you are wrong. Nothingness is the origin of the universe."
Isaac's gaze was sharp as a sword. He didn't respond, instead continuing to sense the power emanating from the void. He knew the Lord of Nothingness was no ordinary enemy; it was the deepest power of the universe, immeasurable by simple words. Yet, Isaac was not afraid, for he knew the power he possessed.
"Lord of Nothingness, your power is immense, but that doesn't mean you can decide everything." Isaac's voice was calm, yet it revealed boundless determination. "The course of destiny and the order of the universe are all written by me. What you call nothingness is merely a part of the universe's workings, and it too will eventually be shattered by me."
The figure of the Lord of the Void gradually appeared, its colossal form like an immortal mountain, pressing down on the surrounding space as if crushed by a giant boulder. It emanated a profound light, a light filled with an indescribable pressure, seemingly capable of distorting all matter and existence into nothingness. The Lord of the Void's eyes were cold, as if it saw through all existence and understood the secrets of the universe. "You are right, nothingness is indeed part of the universe," its voice echoed through the void, "but you must understand, nothingness is eternal, it cannot be destroyed. It is the beginning of the universe, and also its end. All power, no matter how great, will ultimately return to nothingness."
A dazzling light flashed in Isaac's eyes, and his voice was firm: "I do not believe in destiny, nor can I allow nothingness to forever dominate the course of the universe. I am here not to submit, but to break free from constraints and redefine destiny!"
Just then, the Lord of the Void suddenly waved his hand, and the power of darkness surged towards Isaac like a torrent. That power carried an aura of annihilation, as if it could erase the existence of the entire universe. Isaac met that power without hesitation, and the mysterious energy within his body surged wildly, transforming into a powerful beam of light that struck directly at the Lord of the Void.
The Lord of the Void did not dodge. Instead, he reached out and gently grasped, easily dissolving the beam of light erupting from Isaac's body. Then, the Lord of the Void's figure gradually blurred, as if merging with the void, becoming elusive. "You think you can defeat me?" The Lord of the Void's voice rang out again, carrying a hint of cold mockery, "You are merely overconfident."
Isaac did not back down; the power within him surged even stronger. He whispered, "Lord of Nothingness, you have never known the power I possess." As he spoke, his eyes instantly shone like stars, and the power of the Eye of Destiny awakened once more. That power, like a star surpassing all others, erupted from his body, instantly illuminating the entire void.
This time, Isaac's attack no longer relied solely on physical strength, but instead invoked the rules of the universe, engaging in a direct confrontation with the Void. He manipulated the power of the rules and the Void, gradually forming a massive energy vortex, and space began to shift under his control. Isaac knew that only in this way could he gain a glimmer of hope before the Lord of the Void and strive for ultimate victory.
A flicker of surprise crossed the Void Lord's eyes. It hadn't expected Isaac to be able to generate such a powerful energy fluctuation in such a short time, thanks to the power of the Eye of Destiny. Its expression changed slightly, but it quickly regained its composure. "Indeed, your power is worthy of my attention," the Void Lord murmured, "but even so, you still cannot surpass the Void."
As the Lord of the Void finished speaking, Isaac felt an unprecedented sense of oppression surge into his heart, as if the power of the entire universe had been concentrated on him. The void began to tremble violently, and the entire space seemed to be undergoing an extremely drastic change. Although Isaac's power was immense, it still seemed insignificant before the Lord of the Void.
However, Isaac's gaze remained unwavering. He knew that this battle was far from over; though the power of the Void was immense, he had no reason to give up. Every pressure was spurring him to unleash even greater potential, and every collision brought him closer to breaking through his limits.
"Lord of Nothingness." Isaac took a deep breath, his voice firm and resolute, "Today, no matter how powerful you are, I will break you, break the shackles of Nothingness!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a deafening roar erupted from within Isaac's body. The energy surged once more, as if countless worlds were exploding within him. All the rules and powers converged into a massive pillar of light, pointing directly at the Lord of Nothingness. The power of the pillar even tore through the void, and space itself began to collapse under its impact.
A look of surprise crossed the Void Lord's face; it clearly hadn't expected Isaac to unleash such power at such a crucial moment. A flicker of alertness crossed its eyes, and it swung its arm, attempting to deflect Isaac's attack.
However, the instant the Void Lord waved its hand, Isaac's attack broke through its defenses and struck the Void Lord's body directly. The powerful energy instantly engulfed the Void Lord's figure, the surrounding darkness seemed to be torn apart, and cracks began to appear in the void.
"Is this what you call nothingness?" Isaac laughed, his voice echoing throughout the universe. "Nothingness has an end, but I am the master of the universe!"
As his voice faded, everything in the void began to change dramatically. The figure of the Lord of Nothingness gradually blurred, as if swallowed by light, and the entire space began to return to calm.
However, Isaac did not let his guard down. He knew that the power of the Void Lord had not completely disappeared; it had only temporarily retreated in preparation for the next round of counterattack.
