Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 814: Omniscience and Omnipotence are ineffective against me
Yhwach is controlling the flow of time in an almost god-like manner, intercepting those timelines that are most beneficial to him and making the operation trajectories of all things in the world conform to his will.

His power comes from his foresight into the future. Every swing of his sword and every step he takes seem to be weaving a grand symphony of destiny. Every note is precise and accurate, pointing to the final chapter he desires.

At this moment, Yhwach condensed the spirit particles around him, and a powerful and pure energy gathered in his hands, transforming into a huge cross lightsaber shining with blue light.

With a low chant, Yhwach's figure blurred in an instant, like a traveler through time and space, and instantly appeared in front of his target, Esdeath. The lightsaber slashed at her with the force of thunder without any warning.

Esdeath gently raised the knife in her hand and blocked Yhwach's fatal blow with almost no effort.

At the moment the two forces collided, a deafening sound of metal clashing broke out in the air, and a "bang" sound echoed throughout the battlefield, shaking people's minds.

However, Yhwach did not stop. He seemed to have foreseen this scene. His body twisted again and appeared behind Esdeath like a ghost. He chopped down her head with his lightsaber without mercy. This time the force was more violent than any previous time.

Although Esdeath reacted in time and took the blow, she couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

It seemed that Yhwach was even more powerful than she had expected, and each attack was more fierce than the last, as if his strength continued to grow with his foresight into the future.

"Don't waste your energy! Your future has no secrets in my eyes!"

Yhwach's voice was filled with unquestionable confidence, and the strange multiple pupils in his eyes trembled slowly, as if he could see through all the vanity in the world and look directly at the essence of fate.

In the face of Yhwach's declaration, Esdeath was not afraid, but instead a playful smile appeared on her lips.

"Interesting, but even if you are omniscient and omnipotent, you can't see things that are beyond your understanding!"

There was a hint of provocation in her words, as well as an implicit expectation for unknown possibilities.

Just as Yhwach was about to launch another attack, Esdeath suddenly pointed a finger at his chest.

This finger, seemingly gentle and weak, actually contains enough power to subvert everything.

Yhwach's pupils suddenly shrank, and he felt an unprecedented sense of crisis. It was a force that he could not predict or control, and it was rapidly eroding his body.

"what?"

Before Yhwach's exclamation had completely died down, a flash of the God of Destruction had already penetrated his body and came out from behind him, like a lightning bolt that split the sky, not only piercing his proud body, but also splitting the entire Invisible Empire into two. Its power was so strong that it made the heaven and earth change color!
Yhwach covered his pierced chest and staggered back two steps, his face full of disbelief.

This was not because of how terrifying the power of that blow was, but because he was shocked that he could not see through Esdeath's attack.

In his omniscient vision, this shouldn't have happened. He was distracted and failed to dodge in time. This sudden sense of frustration was more unbearable than the physical trauma he suffered.

"You...how did you do it?"

There was a barely perceptible tremor in Youhabach's voice. This was the first time he doubted his own abilities, and also the first time he felt fear.

For a long time, he relied on the power of omniscience and omnipotence, as if he held the key to his destiny, walking in the world, knowing everything and being able to do everything. However, at this moment, this confidence was completely shattered.

His ability actually failed when facing Esdeath, as if he was blocked by an invisible barrier and unable to peek into her future.

This made him start to reflect on whether there really was a power that he could not understand and control.

An unprecedented wave of emotion surged deep in Youhabach's heart. It was a fear of the unknown and an uneasiness about losing control.

The omniscience and omnipotence that he had always believed in seemed so fragile at this moment, as if it was a carefully constructed lie that was ruthlessly punctured by reality.

Esdeath stood there, looking at Yhwach calmly. There was no pride of a winner on her face, only a desire to explore the unknown.

She spoke slowly, her voice calm and firm: "In this universe, there are always things that are beyond the scope of any logic and foreknowledge. Your so-called omniscience is nothing more than a cage limited to your own cognition. True power comes from accepting and exploring the unknown, not controlling the known."

In the deep eyes of Yhwach, the failure of omniscience and omnipotence was like a huge rock thrown into his calm inner world, causing ripples.

He frowned and stared at Esdeath, the woman who could hide under his omniscience and omnipotence, with unprecedented complex emotions surging in his heart.

Omniscience and omnipotence, which he had always regarded as the source of absolute power, seemed so powerless at this moment, as if the whole world was hiding some vital secret from him.

"Omniscience and omnipotence are ineffective..."

Yhwach whispered to himself, his voice revealing disbelief and a barely perceptible tremor.

He knew very well what this meant - he was no longer the absolute being who could foresee and control everything in the future.

This realization was like a chill in his bones, causing him to temporarily lose his usual calm and composure.

However, as an old monster who had experienced countless storms and endured for thousands of years, he quickly adjusted his mentality, buried this uneasiness deep in his heart, and turned it into a more ardent fighting spirit and desire for power.

The spirit sword hummed in his hand, an extension of his power and a manifestation of his will. Yhwach took a deep breath, locked his gaze on Esdeath, and turned into a stream of light, suddenly approaching her.

There were no fancy sword moves, only the simplest and most direct strike - a straight stab.

This sword embodies his thousand years of practice and profound understanding of swordsmanship. Even the most insignificant movement is enough to shake the world.

Seeing this, Esdeath's eyes flashed with approval, and then she jumped up suddenly. The blade in her hand burst into dazzling light and collided violently with Yhwach's sword.

The sound of metal clashing was deafening. The space seemed unable to withstand this force and began to twist and tear. The black cracks were like the fangs of a devil, raging in the void.
