It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 488 Dragon God
"What?! How could you—?!"

In an instant, the Moon King was struck by lightning.

It was as if he had suffered an invisible, devastating blow from the void, as if an invisible force had pierced his chest.

The deity staggered backward, the waves beneath his feet exploding into pale foam, each step causing the entire divine realm to groan in despair, on the verge of collapse.

When she finally regained her balance, she suddenly looked up, her pupils contracting sharply—

It was as if the cold, divine mask had been shattered in an instant, revealing a shock and unease that was almost human.

A turning point has appeared!
In that split second, almost everyone had this thought subconsciously.

Like a ray of dawn appearing in endless darkness, or like parched earth receiving sweet rain.

Now that she no longer needed to contend with the power of the falling moon and the collapse of the heavens, Watatsuki Yorihime also dissipated the immense divine power surrounding her, which was as vast as the ocean.

However, it was only a brief moment of collision...

This still caused the princess's condition to deteriorate rapidly.

When the overwhelming divine power ceased to flow, and the vast divine phantoms also dissipated and disappeared, she swayed precariously in the void, almost losing her footing and falling.

But immediately, Princess Toyohime appeared like a streak of light and brought Princess Yorihime back.

The movement was so swift that the opening of the gap felt somewhat belated.

The dark crack had barely torn open the space when the person was no longer there.

"..."

"..."

The golden-haired demon in the distance twitched the corner of his mouth, gently waved his folding fan, and closed the gap that had just been opened.

This minor incident did not affect the tense standoff on the other side.

"Hmph, don't think that the battlefield outside is just being held back by those rabbits..."

A light, bell-like laugh came from the void, carrying a sly, teasing tone.

"They're just a cover to lower your guard."

"After all, if you think they're not worth mentioning, you naturally won't bother paying them any attention..."

"And the people here have indeed caused you trouble; that's the battlefield where you really need to focus your attention..."

“Hi Hi——”

"That's how it is. The real killing move is actually launched by me!"

Before the words were finished, a fragrant breeze suddenly swept by, and countless illusory flowers fluttered down. Amidst this rain of petals, a figure appeared silently, as if emerging from a dream.

A white-haired girl hovered in the void, her red eyes like blood, her porcelain-white skin glowing faintly in the moonlight.

Her lips curved slightly upward, forming a charming arc, and her eyes were filled with a triumphant smile.

"You?!"

The Moon King seemed to be extremely enraged, his killing intent locking onto his opponent like a tidal wave, and his divine power suddenly erupted.

She suddenly raised her hand, and a thunderous power was about to unleash upon her—

However, the white-haired girl simply smiled faintly, raised her slender fingers, and a dazzling light suddenly burst forth from the tip of her staff.

In that instant, it was as if some kind of signal had been triggered—

Above the divine realm, the massive structure responded with a deafening roar, the terrifying gravitational field instantly collapsed, and a beam of dark blue light pierced through like divine punishment, precisely capturing the Moon King's divine body!
"Hmm... what is this?!"

The Moon King froze, his power abruptly cut off before it could be released.

She instinctively tried to struggle, but found that she couldn't even move her fingertips an inch, as if an ancient and boundless heavy sacred mountain had suddenly pressed down on her.

The beam of light acted like invisible shackles, completely imprisoning the Moon King in place.

"Graviton beam locking... I think that's it, but I don't really understand it either."

Miss Meryl said with a smile, making a few gestures in the air as if browsing a page that only she could see; the movements were light and elegant.

Then, she shook her head slightly, a troubled look on her face.

"Anyway, it should be the gravity generator on the War Moon. I've only just taken over and don't know much about it. I'm only responsible for issuing commands. What function to use to suppress you is the combat system's own judgment..."

"This is impossible!"

Like a chilling voice emanating from an ice cave, the deity sternly denied it, the voice filled with disbelief and resistance.

"What's impossible? My authority is above yours!"

Miss Meryl gave a light hum: "I know, you are now like a star-headed being, and have even become the first UO in this world..."

"If it were still the same moon, I might not be able to deal with you like this..."

"But the moon now has been transformed into a completely mechanical world..."

That's the truth.

Miss Meryl knows all too well what UO is.

That is the agent of the celestial bodies, one of the original entities on the corresponding planet, Aristotle who possesses the planet's contribution and support.

No matter how you look at it, it is an extremely powerful and extreme existence.

It is a monster among monsters, capable of single-handedly annihilating all living beings on earth.

They can't even be killed... because UO doesn't have the concept of death. Or rather, the concept of death on Earth is different from that on Earth.

And such an existence—

In today's world, it is naturally impossible...

This world has its own operating rules, its own balance and order, and its own unique server rules.

However, this god of the lunar capital had no choice but to accept a gift from a higher realm. That mysterious power, like a sudden storm, altered the course of her destiny.

Therefore, in this world, Tsukiyomi became the first UO (Ultimate Online).

Moreover, because it was originally an ancient god, the result of this transformation is likely not as simple as one plus one equals two.

As an ancient deity, it already possessed profound knowledge and powerful strength, and now it has also incorporated the characteristics of UO.

The chemical reaction produced by the fusion of these two forces is absolutely beyond imagination.

This story is somewhat terrifying.

Based on Miss Meryl's past experience, UO is not invincible, but she has never seen UO defeated in a fair and square confrontation.

—Whether it's the worldline of Steel Land, where all the Ultimate Zeroes of the solar system descend to Earth, and the back-and-forth battles with Ariha from the end of the century, with both sides having their victories and defeats…

—Still in a timeline where the Dead Apostles have grown stronger and vampires have risen to dominance, the True Ancestor Princess who descended was destroyed by the Jewel Mage…

Those seemingly impressive achievements all stemmed from the same underlying circumstances.

That means the UOs are fighting on Earth, far from their home base, and don't get much support from the celestial bodies behind them. Anyway, Meryl has never heard of a battle where someone set foot on the territory of Saturn, Jupiter, or Uranus and wiped out the corresponding UO.

And now...

Are they going to face off against the Moon King on the moon?

Haha. So, what kind of ghost story is this?

To be honest, Miss Meryl wasn’t really sure until she discovered that the moon itself had been terraformed.

This is debatable.

It would be better if it hadn't been modified; she wouldn't know where to begin with a purely celestial body.

The interior of the modified moon is a mechanical behemoth, a collection of countless nanounits, processor arrays, and artificial intelligence.

This was a different story for Meryl, who had accessed the Pan-Galaxy faster-than-light communication link and gained high privileges.

Simply put -

Electronic warfare, viruses, quantum hacking tactics... and so on, suddenly became top-priority options.

Miss Meryl, as a top-level magician and a professional in the mystical world, simply lacked this awareness.

The nanomodules she carried with her never unfolded, multiplied, or increased in size.

This greatly suppresses its functions.

This was very frustrating. Even high privileges couldn't overcome the drag from low performance, causing her to be delayed for quite some time while trying to crack and seize the main control hub of the lunar core.

Otherwise, we wouldn't have almost missed it.

Fortunately, the outcome was still successful.

She seized control of the War Moon and severed the connection between this mechanized celestial body and the Moon King, dealing a heavy blow to the latter.

"..."

"..."

The Moon King fell silent, a sinister look appearing on his pale face.

A faint rumbling sound could be heard again from the void.

Within the space surrounding the deity, the ground state field seemed to be boiling, and the boundless power surged violently within the gravitational field, causing spatial distortion with every struggle.

Gravitational lensing rippled through the divine realm, tearing even light into fragmented rainbows.

"so troublesome."

Miss Meryl curled her lip and raised her staff: "Now—eliminate her!"

"and many more!"

However, Eirin Yagokoro stepped forward, her silver hair flying in the turbulent gravitational currents.

"She seems to have recovered quite a bit of her emotions now... Maybe, just maybe, it's time to try and negotiate..."

As if to confirm her words, the Moon King suddenly froze.

—It was as if excruciating pain seeped into the core of the soul from an invisible wound, burning and awakening the lingering warmth of dormant humanity.

The god looked down at his trembling fingers, feeling a strange heat spreading from his fingertips, and a trace of almost painful confusion flashed in his eyes.

But the next second—

An even more terrifying divine power erupted, and the gravitational beam suddenly dimmed.

The Moon King suddenly looked up, and all the trembling receded like a tide, replaced by a coldness more chilling than the extreme ice.

Divinity once again enveloped his face, leaving only an inorganic, ghostly light in his pupils.

"Negotiation... Ridiculous."

The voice of the gods was like an ancient, frigid abyss: "How dare ants compete with the bright moon?"

The entire divine realm emitted a deafening wail.

"Get to work—show your trump cards now. If that doesn't work, I'll have to use the Star Destroyer."

The Flower Magician started shouting.

At the same time, the colossal structure above the divine realm also began to roar.

That is the moon now. Thanks to the functions it has been given, it exists both in the physical universe and manifests in this divine realm.

However, this has also created a kind of spatiotemporal nesting phenomenon.

For example, the divine realm is on the moon, and the moon is within the divine realm.

"Do it!"

The boundary demon was also extremely decisive; she didn't want to fail at the last moment.

Therefore, without consulting Yagokoro Eirin, she simply pointed her finger, a seemingly casual action that concealed the full force of her impending attack.

This is also the strongest power of the Yokai Sage to date.

—The fluctuations of the power of the realm are unleashed!

—The goal is to completely merge the realms of existence of all people, making them indistinguishable from one another!

Logically, that should be the case.

But at the critical moment, a figure flashed across the battlefield like a crimson lightning bolt.

"Reimu?"

Someone paused for a moment, then recognized the figure.

no……

Is the Hakurei Shrine Maiden really this brave? I've never seen her fight this hard before, so what's she up to now?
next moment--

The question was answered immediately.

At first, it was just a ray of rainbow light, like the first rays of dawn, but in an instant it transformed into a dragon shadow that blotted out the sky.

A single scale, as large as a mountain, emerged from nothingness...

The half-dragon claw pressed down, and the trajectory of its tip caused cracks to appear in the space itself...

The dragon's head remained hidden deep within the swirling clouds, only its drooping beard cascading down like a celestial river...

--roar!!
Before the dragon's roar could be heard, it had already resonated deep within the souls of all living beings.

That wasn't a sound, but a pressure directly imprinted on the very essence of existence, causing people to instinctively kneel down.
