Colonial Suit

The old woman's surprise was not without reason.

Behind the simple term 'rule disruption' lies power and determination.

It can be said that to this day, the evolution of cosmic warriors is still an evolution of their mastery of rules and space. The deeper their understanding of energy rules, the more they can access deeper levels of anti-space, and the more powerful their combat capabilities become. The Planetary level is the most distinct watershed. It is because from the Planetary level onwards that cosmic warriors first possess the ability to sense and utilize binary energy rules! (Meteor levels are similar to Planetary levels; they can also sense binary energy rules after reaching the Planetary energy level, but can only utilize them in a small range before condensing the Source Power Core.)

However, the Stellar level takes it a step further, reaching the point of modifying binary energy rules.

Utilization and modification are completely different concepts. It is precisely for this reason that the Stellar level has become the most admired existence in the universe. Each individual influences the endless starry sky and countless civilizations.

But Old Man Death wants to disrupt the rules. Isn't that madness? It's like a few people playing cards, and one of them, seeing that they're about to lose, flips the table. It's a typical rogue act. What's even more terrifying is that with the disruption of the rules, their abilities will be greatly reduced, even to a dangerous level.

Because everything will change. The familiar binary energy rules will no longer exist, replaced by completely unpredictable chaos. In this process, even Stellar levels will lose most of their power. It's a double-edged sword, hurting others while also cutting oneself to the greatest extent.

But… what else can they do?

Looking at the huge roots rushing towards her, the old woman's gaze gradually focused. At this moment, she really couldn't afford to think too much. Only projecting here, she was not qualified to fight the Managu Tree. In fact, even if her true body were here, facing this legendary plant, she probably wouldn't have much power to fight back.

Flipping the table, putting both sides on the same starting line, was the only chance of survival at the moment.

Green light filled the air, and the space vibrated violently, churned by countless huge roots like a sea tide. Even a trace of fluctuation transmitted destructive energy. Countless roots lunged at the two like venomous snakes. The old woman could even feel the attraction on them. Her own energy was gradually showing signs of leaving her body.

The predatory ability of the Managu root system was one of the most terrifying dangers in the universe. Even for them, being captured by the Managu root system could only result in a hasty escape. Even a moment of carelessness could lead to their fall.

So, after only a brief hesitation, the old woman extended her right hand to Old Man Death.

"Just this once, don't take the opportunity to take advantage of me."

"Do you think I have the leisure for that right now?" Old Man Death was dumbfounded. But he still grasped the old woman's right hand.

Rule disruption is not a simple matter. The entire universe is supported by binary energy rules. So, in a sense, binary energy rules are the skeleton of the universe. Even Stellar levels are greatly limited when modifying them. In particular, they cannot touch the supporting parts of the skeleton, such as the 'spine'; they can only modify the subsidiary rules, such as the 'ribs.' Rule disruption is using modification and confusion to create disorder in this part of the rules, thus affecting the whole body.

This undoubtedly requires great power. If Old Man Death's true body were here, of course there would be no problem, but unfortunately he is only a projection now. A projection with less than half of his power.

Fortunately, he was not alone.

Grasping the old woman's hand tightly, Old Man Death's eyes narrowed. In this brief silence, unimaginable energy was being mobilized. His spirit, will, energy, and thoughts, like countless radiating tentacles, intertwined with the old woman's tentacles. In just an instant, the energy of the two was synchronized.

This was a technique that only Stellar levels could master, called 'Micro-element Balance.' It could unify the power of two, or even more, Stellar levels in a very short time, making them as easy to command as one's own limbs!

This… was the power to change the world!

Green light filled the air, and in just a moment, the Managu root system had lunged in front of the two. Each thick root was like an ancient behemoth, radiating terrifying suction. The excessively dense life energy had become poison. Just a trace was enough to kill billions of living beings. But the most terrifying thing was their projection that reached the third layer of anti-space, making them like a heavy tank rolling over asphalt, crushing the space in front while restoring it behind. At first glance, countless spatial rifts appeared and disappeared, creating an indescribable and terrifying momentum.

But Old Man Death and the old woman remained calm. Looking at this earth-shattering momentum, Old Man Death simply curled his lips and said in a low voice.

"This universe should have more light."

"Light comes from where it disappears. Your will is born, my will is extinguished," the old woman responded in kind, also in a low voice.

Before the words were finished, a super-huge ball of light suddenly appeared between the two and the countless Managu roots, and then spread out violently. In just an instant, it diluted the surrounding green. Looking around, the milky white light drove away the green light and drove away the darkness, as if it had changed the world in an instant.

What an amazing scene… If Robbie were here, he would definitely be dumbfounded. Because wasn't this exactly what the god he believed in had done?

God said, let there be light, and there was light.

Below...

White light surged, and the Managu roots seemed to be confused by this suddenly changed world, but in an instant, they lunged again, seemingly unaffected at all.

Old Man Death's lips curled up, revealing a strange smile.

"This universe is too empty. It needs to be filled, to be full."

"Gas comes from where it disappears," the old woman said softly, looking at her right hand intertwined with Old Man Death's, "Your will decides, my will circulates."

Boom…

The starry sky vibrated again. An invisible wall of gas suddenly appeared between the two and the Managu root system. The strong airflow instantly formed a tornado, sweeping everything around like a raging wave. The vacuum of the universe could not organize its surge. This gas broke through reality and changed the rules, like a wall dividing the universe, incomprehensibly stirring everything.

The Managu root system crashed into this gas wall, immediately losing its direction.

It wasn't that it wasn't strong enough, but that the environment was too unfamiliar to it. It could be said that since the birth of the Managu Tree, it had always grown naturally in the universe due to its excessive size. For it, a full atmosphere was equivalent to another world.

Of course, no matter how violent the cyclone was, it could not shake the roots of the Managu Tree. It was only normal for its movements to be disturbed. So, in just a moment, countless thick Managu roots were confused in the cyclone, even becoming entangled with each other.

Seeing this scene, Old Man Death smiled again, a playful look flashing in his eyes.

After modifying the rules twice in a row, his energy was running low. But he couldn't stop, because he was still one step away from disrupting the rules. He first used two small changes to trigger it gradually, and now it was time for the fatal blow. It could be said that Old Man Death couldn't stop at this moment, and couldn't stop!

If he stopped, the inertia of modifying the rules would crush him, and even his true body would not be spared.

The latest novel is first published on 69shu8!

So, standing outside the endless storm, he just took a slight breath and said to the old woman, "I hope I won't regret this time."

"The only thing you should regret is only one thing, I can't think of anything else that would make you regret it more," the old woman replied resentfully, but her tone faintly revealed a hint of resentment.

Of course, Old Man Death also heard this hint of resentment, but he could only smile bitterly and remain silent.

But their hands were held tighter and more firmly, with their palms transmitting each other's body temperature, thoughts, energy, and pulse.

The cyclone became more violent, already affecting tens of thousands of kilometers of space, and rapidly expanding. Old Man Death and the old woman stood in the center of this storm, their hair flying. Finally, Old Man Death spoke for the third time, saying in a deep voice.

"This universe is too silent! It needs chaos, disorder! Conflict, madness!"

"Power comes from where it disappears," the old woman continued, but her tone paused slightly.

Hesitating again, she glanced at Old Man Death before continuing to speak.

"Your will guides, my will destroys."

"From here to there."

As soon as the words fell, the entire starry sky shook violently, like a picture frame falling from the wall. Immediately afterwards, countless powerful gravitational flows appeared out of nowhere, instantly covering every inch of the surrounding space. The strong gravitational flows intertwined and tore at each other, as if to tear apart this world, this universe!

In just an instant, all the rules became invalid! The starry sky was no longer silent, and the universe was no longer a vacuum. Heaven and earth would be overturned, and energy would flow backwards. Everything, everything, lost its common sense under this starry sky. Even space began to sway, and a large number of fissures were automatically destroyed as soon as they were formed. Anti-matter fell from the deep space, and strangely turned directly into positive energy and returned. The endless power flows collided, entangled, and raged. The whole scene was like the end of the world.

The rules of the universe began to collapse!

Although only a small part of the 'ribs' were destroyed, the resulting riot was simply like doomsday. Large areas of space shattered like mirrors, even revealing the sub-space and anti-space 'behind.' Looking around, it was like 'holes' were all over the starry sky!

In such a destructive environment, the Managu root system could no longer maintain its individual integrity. One thick root after another wriggled frantically, and then shattered in the chaos of the universe. Large chunks of debris flew in all directions, and were swallowed by the 'holes' in the space in a blink of an eye. In just an instant, the original vast green world was ravaged and riddled with holes, and could no longer maintain its original 'maze form.'

Visibly, the fragmented Managu root system began to retreat, and began to 'spit' out the previous starry sky.

And among these continuously collapsing root systems, there was one thing that attracted everyone's attention.

It was a sphere connected to a certain rhizome, emitting a jewel-like emerald green light.

Just as it was exposed, in a certain room of the universe mercenary mothership, Jules suddenly woke up from his sleep and jumped up.

"Is… is it!?"
