Chapter 597 597: Limiter Opened! First Threshold Liberated!!!
[Warning, Special Reincarnator EX051, your power massively exceeds the load. The physical body will suffer unpredictable damage]
[Warning, Special Reincarnator EX051, your physical body is about to collapse and cause existential damage] (Note, existential damage cannot be repaired by Instant Self-Healing and Immortality)
Kaito Shirogane directly closed the interface, his face twisted with extreme cruelty. He was always cruel to others, but even more cruel to himself.
Crack!
He felt the sound of something shattering. That wasn't as simple as the physical body shattering, and similarly wasn't the soul either.
Rather, it was something between the physical body and the soul. It was a thing that bound him from formlessness into his current shape.
If one had to say, the AT Field from the Evangelion world was the closest to this kind of thing.
But this kind of thing wasn't that idealistic; instead, it manifested in a form similar to innate aptitude.
This is the [Vessel]!
The [Vessel] that determines the upper limit of an individual's innate talent.
A special carrier accommodating all forms of power.
At this very moment, Kaito Shirogane's [Vessel] shattered.
The power within his body, which had explosively surpassed the limit due to the combined effects of the Furnace of Life, Qilin Armor, Kaioken, and Despairing Savior, crushed his [Vessel].
It was like a water kettle that could only hold a thousand milliliters being magically forced to hold ten thousand milliliters of water out of thin air.
In an instant, the water kettle expanded to the limit and ultimately shattered.
Boom!
Kaito Shirogane felt boundless light envelop his consciousness. At this moment, he felt just like when he was wandering in the [Swirl of the Root].
Unrestrained, without any restrictions. Of course, he also no longer had his own physical form.
But unlike the Swirl of the Root, there was no knowledge here, no known existence.
Everything was nothingness, everything was non-existent. This was like a void with nothing in it, yet also like chaos itself.
Kaito Shirogane forcefully tried to open his eyes, but here, he completely didn't have that kind of thing.
He could only completely spread out his ego, almost instinctively wanting to perceive as many things as possible in this kind of place.
Even though... there was nothing here.
Kaito Shirogane's keen intuition, similarly an innate vessel, was still displaying his extraordinariness at a time like this.
In the next moment, Kaito Shirogane felt as if a line of sight discovered him, cast from the vast void. Subsequently, his feeling of freedom and unrestraint rapidly began to collapse.
He began to perceive weight, smell, began to detect the speed of his mind operating, felt the flow of electrons within his body, felt the jumping of brainwaves...
All sensations began to return. Kaito Shirogane, once again became that specific Kaito Shirogane.
"Is this the process of... being observed?!"
"The Limiter, is this kind of power?!"
Then, that chaos... what exactly is it...
Various anomalies intertwined in Kaito Shirogane's mind. His brain operated at an unbelievably fast speed, almost every moment undergoing the transformation of thousands of thoughts simultaneously.
In the next moment, Kaito Shirogane felt himself return to that scorching Furnace of Life.
At this time, he felt that power, which had once overflowed to the point of completely being unable to dissipate, flowing freely throughout his entire body.
It was as if the power that once merely existing within his body would shatter him was now nothing to speak of; he could easily accommodate it.
Only at this time did he open the Space's interface. He saw through the waterfall-like interface prompts at a glance, directly finding the core few lines.
[Special Reincarnator EX051, your physical body has collapsed, existence begins to disappear]
[Special Reincarnator EX051 has lost existential reaction, currently executing information erasure...]
[Erasure Failed]
[Detected Special Reincarnator EX051's existence begins to return]
[Special Reincarnator EX051's existence returns, physical body begins to regenerate]
[Special Reincarnator EX051, Limiter has broken through the first threshold, current opening extent: 13%]
[Limiter First Threshold Liberation: Basic four-dimensional attributes additionally increased by 100%] (This amplification is not affected by any restrictions and cannot be weakened by any abilities or authorities)
"Phew~"
Kaito Shirogane exhaled a breath of foul air. In the next moment, the flesh-and-blood giant similarly exhaled a breath. Flames erupted from its mouth, and the ocean was instantly ignited.
Boundless white mist spread upwards.
Only at this time did Kaito Shirogane raise his head, noticing the monster composed of massive golden ripples and twisted space that had already descended thousands of meters above him.
That was probably Laurence's form of existence at this very moment.
No, just by slightly utilizing a bit of thinking ability, Kaito Shirogane understood that this flesh-and-blood giant he currently occupied was exactly Laurence's true subsequent body.
It was the true physical body he intended to use to climb the stairway of life to its end and question the creators.
Only a pity, it had already been ravaged beyond recognition by him at this time.
Kaito Shirogane looked down and saw that the thousand-meter flesh-and-blood giant was probably only a few hundred meters tall now. Although the physical body had become extremely robust, the power of the Furnace of Flesh and Blood had indeed been consumed enormously.
No wonder he could clearly perceive a look of astonishment and anger from the complex eyes above his head.
On the other side, that black-red giant dragon, whose body length was probably similarly reaching a thousand meters, also completely unfolded its body from the time vortex.
With a spread of its dual wings, scorching authority had already covered the mortal world.
With just a sweep of his peripheral vision, Kaito Shirogane saw that the originally verdant wasteland had already turned scorched black, and countless wildfires had ignited.
Kaito Shirogane seemed to hear countless wails.
He could even clearly perceive that above the entire mortal world, the despair and distortion that couldn't dissipate had converged into a huge dark cloud, lingering above the ocean.
"It's clearly you guys who made this world into this appearance, why do you all look at me with such bitter hatred~"
The corners of his mouth hooked up in a mocking smile.
The root of this world's distortion was exactly those three upper-level powers simultaneously attempting to completely dominate this world, thereby causing this world to be so chaotic and despairing.
Humans without any special powers were already despairing when facing Dragons. The Old Gods descending upon the world, besides imparting knowledge, also brought the pollution of the starry sky.
Caught in between, humans began endless slaughtering. Wars spawned plagues like the Black Death, and birthed even more distortion. The unspeakable horror had also struck.
"Never mind, never mind. Who let me be the... savior, ha!"
Amidst Kaito Shirogane's laughter, his body slowly rose.
The several-hundred-meter-tall flesh-and-blood giant floated up from the ocean as if weightless. The root-like tentacles connecting various parts of the flesh-and-blood giant's body snapped one by one.
Kaito Shirogane no longer needed the blessing of the furnace's vitality.
Now, he was terrifyingly strong.
Kaito Shirogane raised his hand, pointing from afar at the Dragon King who had its head raised, seemingly about to execute a terrifying Kotodama.
Chirp!
Golden radiance, so dazzling it seemed a sun had appeared, condensed at Kaito Shirogane's fingertip.
When Norton and Constantine perceived that terrifying high temperature, they only had time to turn their heads. Norton raised his wings, protecting the humanoid Constantine sitting on his back.
In the next moment, an unmatched energy broke through the air.
Boom!
The sky was pierced through. The golden light seemed to disappear into the river of stars. The ocean split apart towards both sides due to the terrifying shockwave, generating terrifying ocean waves tens of meters high.
Roar!
Norton let out a miserable cry and fell from the sky. Amidst spurting blood, the dragon head looked sideways, seeing the flesh-and-blood giant let out an explosive shout towards the huge eye falling overhead.
"Ha!"
Heaven and earth abruptly lit up, followed by terrifying lightning submerging everything.
Light, sound, everything disappeared.
