Ultraman: The Grim Reaper from Ancient Times

Chapter 162 Spying from the Dark! An Old Acquaintance from the Fourth Dimension?
This is the beginning of the Orb Origin storyline.

The course of history continues to move forward.

Meanwhile, the effects of the previous battle between Raine and Dark Zagi have not yet ceased.

In another time and space.

An unusual event is taking place at this moment.

When Raine fought Dark Zagi, he opened a portal to the multiverse, which also connects to this universe.

Like most universes, this universe contains a similar Earth.

At this moment, humanity on Earth witnessed that great battle.

It left an extremely deep impression on them.

It made them realize the sense of crisis.

A giant radiating light and a giant radiating darkness, like legendary gods, were exposed to people's sight.

It made people clearly aware of their own insignificance.

So the people here began to develop technology at a frenzy, just to offer a little comfort to their helpless hearts.

As technology advances, the humans here suddenly discover that there are things called Spark Dolls scattered all over the earth.

These spark figures seem to possess life and their own consciousness.

This made humanity on Earth realize that if the mystery of the Spark Doll could be solved, human civilization might be able to reach another level.

But just as humanity began its frenzied research into Spark Dolls, a strange solar flare suddenly erupted.

Intense radiation struck the Earth, causing the Spark Dolls on Earth to mutate.

Some of the Spark Dolls actually materialized, thus becoming a disaster on Earth.

This is not actually a simple solar flare.

It is an Ultra Flare.

The instigator was none other than Ax, who was pursuing Grezali.

……

"Have I finally gained recognition?"

At this moment, Ryan, who was enjoying his retirement life even more, gently placed his hand on his color timer.

Feel the earth-shaking changes happening inside my body.

I felt a sense of relief.

It's been so many years, I don't even know how many years have passed.

Ever since he obtained the Hogyoku, he had been looking forward to fusing with it.

Now, having finally gained the approval of the Hogyoku, the first stage of fusion with the Hogyoku is quietly taking place.

During the fusion, he could vaguely sense that his level of life had changed.

Perhaps once the first phase of integration is completed, he will be able to truly reach the level of Shenzhou IV.

Although he previously possessed the strength to contend with the God Four, that was only due to the amplification from his Hollowfication.

Now is his true power.

After this period of fighting, it seems that he has not only gained the approval of the Hogyoku, but also subdued it.

The will of the Hogyoku had now become his own.

"The first phase of integration?"

Renn fell into deep thought.

He remembered that in the original story, Aizen's first few fusions after fusing with the Hogyoku were relatively normal.

But later on, it evolved more and more into a monster.

He doesn't want this.

"This may be a change in mindset."

"Aizen's evolution was somewhat hasty, which caused his body to be unable to keep up with the speed of evolution."

"I absolutely cannot make this mistake."

Thinking of this, he reached out and patted Ye Fu on the shoulder next to him: "Let's go. Lately, I've felt like something's watching me. Looks like I've been targeted by some guys again."

"We need to improve our strength as soon as possible."

This is something he experienced firsthand.

As his level of life increases, his perception also becomes more and more powerful.

He could clearly sense that there was a pair of eyes watching him from the shadows, plotting something.

His strength is already very great.

The fact that he noticed it so late is enough to prove that the other party is much stronger.

The more this is the case, the more we must not let our guard down.

He has always been a cautious person, and he needs to acquire greater power to be more confident in dealing with enemies in the future.

These days, Ye Fu is being raised like a pet.

Although Ye Fu had almost lost his attack power after he used Ultra Charge.

But as the Grim Reaper who controls the power of souls, none of this is a problem for him.

What's more, he also possesses the monstrous Hogyoku.

During this time, he used the Hogyoku to try to create a soul of his own for Ye Fu.

The initial results are already visible.

Ye Fu probably already has the intelligence of a three- or four-year-old child, and has the ability to understand simple commands.

Perhaps soon his soul will be complete, thus becoming a major fighting force by Rein's side.

The opponent's abnormal ability is a major bug in this universe.

Even Noah would probably have to back down.

……

"What a terrifying rate of growth."

In the far reaches of the universe, there exists a planet that radiates a dazzling golden light.

Inside this golden planet, a gigantic pillar of light shoots skyward.

This is an artificial sun, similar to a plasma spark.

However, the power of this artificial sun is dozens or even hundreds of times that of a plasma spark.

This caused the planet to become somewhat overwhelmed by the energy impact, as if it were about to disintegrate at any moment.

Deep beneath the surface of this planet lies a vast, empty space.

it's here.

A colossal figure was sleeping soundly, radiating a soft glow.

These rays act as stabilizers for this artificial sun.

This is the planet Absolut.

The giant's name was Chaos, and he was also the king of the planet Absolut.

He has been sleeping here for countless years, using his power to prolong the life of this planet.

Although he appeared to be asleep, his mind was actually always clear.

During this time, it was Chaos who was spying on Rennes.

"It's unbelievable that such a genius could be born in a place like the Land of Light."

"But his genes seem to be different from those of normal members of the Light race?"

Chaos has been observing Rennes for a long time.

The reason he noticed Raine was because Raine's previous battle with Tartarus from a parallel universe had caused spacetime chaos.

It was he who saved Tartarus back then.

It is not Chaos from a parallel universe.

Because after reaching the level of Shenzhou IV, they all have a common characteristic.

That is the uniqueness of the multiverse.

Although there are many parallel universes, and many life forms have their own parallel spacetime counterparts in these parallel universes.

However, only the Shenzhou-4 level is different.

They are unique from the moment they are born, which is why they are able to gather the power of the multiverse into one, thus enabling them to reach the level of Shenzhou IV.

Chaos was the same.

The reason he saved Tartarus from the parallel universe was because he realized that the Absolut clan's plan in the parallel universe might fail.

That's when they'll take action.

From then on, he noticed Renn and kept observing him silently. If Renn hadn't later improved his strength and become aware of his presence, he might have continued to perform silently right in front of him.

What shocked Chaos the most during this period was the speed at which Rein's strength improved.

Renn's strength has improved very quickly.

In just over ten thousand years, Raine has grown from barely being able to fight Tartarus to now even crossing the threshold of God IV.

It's worth noting that Chaos himself took nearly tens of thousands of years to complete this transition.

And this is already considered fast.

This process may seem very slow, but it represents a leap in the level of life.

The Shenzhou-4 is at a level that transcends the rules of the universe and has become a multiverse-level existence.

Actually, the King of Ultra is faster than him.

However, it took the original King of Ultra nearly 70,000 to 80,000 years.

This was already the fastest that the King of Absolut knew.

It's somewhat exaggerated that Raine reached this level in just over ten thousand years.

It was precisely because he was aware of Renn's rapid growth that Chaos began to feel somewhat worried.

This poses a threat to the plans of their Absolut clan.

That's the judgment in his mind.

Unfortunately, he is now completely unable to move.

If he leaves, it will cause the planet to collapse, leading billions of his people down a path to extinction.

This is definitely not what he wanted to see.

This is why, despite realizing that Rein was a threat to their Absolut Plan, he remained indifferent and did not take any action against Rein.

It's not that he doesn't want to.

The problem is that he has no one to rely on right now.

The previous Tartarus had already proven Rein's strength.

Tartarus is the strongest member of the entire Absolut clan besides himself.

But they still nearly lost to Rennes.

There's nothing anyone else can do unless he takes action himself.

"almost."

Chaos thought to himself, "We'll be at our limit soon. In the meantime, we should try our best to get our people off the planet Absolut."

"Even if the planet is destroyed, we will still be able to leave behind a spark."

"I can finally be completely free."

"That will be the time to go to war with the Clan of Light."

This is a struggle for survival; there is absolutely no room for retreat.

The Absolut's homeworld is about to be destroyed, and they desperately need a place to live.

The only suitable place for them to live in the entire universe is, for the time being, the Kingdom of Light in the M78 Nebula.

That's why he immediately sent the Absolut clan to attack the Land of Light as part of a home-trading strategy.

Therefore, we cannot afford to lose this battle.

Just then, a figure appeared in this underground space.

This is not someone else.

It was Tartarus.

However, the energy fluctuations emanating from Tartarus at this moment were far greater than those he had experienced during his previous battle with Renn.

It seems that a lot has happened in the past period of time.

Even because of Raine's appearance, Tartarus's strength has far exceeded the level in the original story.

"Have we already reached this level?"

Chaos said with satisfaction, "It seems the integration has been very successful. If we want to find a way to completely save our Absolut people..."

"Perhaps the only way is to integrate our forces as much as possible, including other parallel universe counterparts."

Tartarus replied respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
……

Meanwhile, Renn, who was wandering in the universe, was unaware of what was happening on the planet Absolut.

He was in a good mood at the moment.

Because he discovered a very interesting phenomenon.

A fourth-dimensional portal has appeared in the universe.

There was a faint glow in the passage, as if some kind of life form was wandering around.

With his keen eyesight, he quickly recognized the true identity of the entire living being.

It turned out to be the Void Monster Greza.

He originally had no interest in paying attention to the little monster.

But after thinking about it again, he glanced at Ye Fu beside him and finally decided to follow and see.

The growth rate of leaf rot is quite astonishing.

He can copy any form of power and amplify it many times over.

Greeza is a powerful monster.

This may also be helpful for the growth of leaf decay.

"and many more."

Upon entering the fourth-dimensional portal, Renn immediately sensed a familiar aura.

This surprised him somewhat.

This familiar aura is none other than the Dark Zagi from before.

Dark Zagi's body collapsed due to his self-destruction, and only his soul escaped.

Later, he disappeared without a trace, and Renn searched for him for a long time without success.

Unexpectedly, traces were found in this four-dimensional passage.

"Now that we've found you, you can't escape."

Ren smiled.

He will not let a threat slip through his nose.

Now that the threat has been detected, it must be nipped in the bud; this is the only way to be responsible for oneself.

Having the power to directly attack souls, he excels at dealing with these kinds of soul entities.

Even if the opponent is a soul entity at the fourth level of God, the result will be the same.

He quickly followed the scent and found a corner of the space where streaks of black light were scattered.

"Is this right here?"

Raine's gaze was sharp.

But then he discovered that the souls here seemed incomplete.

No, it shouldn't even be considered a soul; it's more like some lingering resentment.

"It seems they left here a long time ago."

Rein shook his head: "No wonder I couldn't find the other party's presence when I sensed their spiritual pressure in various timelines."

"It seems that the reason lies here."

"I have never been to the fourth-dimensional passage, so naturally I cannot detect the presence of Dark Zagi hiding here."

"As expected of Dark Zagi, he even has a knack for self-preservation."

"Huh? There's more than just Dark Zagi's soul here?"

Just as he was about to turn and leave, he sensed a familiar spiritual pressure again.

He was also an old acquaintance.

Moreover, its spiritual pressure is no weaker than that of Dark Zagi.

"It's actually it?"

Raine fell into deep thought: "Could it be that as long as the attack reaches a certain intensity, it is possible to open a fourth-dimensional channel by shaking space?"

The newly discovered soul belongs to Hyper Zetton, who was previously defeated by Saga!
It's a real Hypergryph Jetton.

It was not the Baltan aliens who controlled Hyper Zetton.
