Chapter 1035: “Infinite”

All living things have their own limits.

These limits come from birth, or rather, from the will of nature itself. For example, although humans are intelligent and wise, their lifespan limit is only a hundred years or so; although turtles are long-lived, they are slow in action and have low intelligence; cockroaches have super regeneration and rapid reproduction, but their size limit is no more than the size of a palm... This “limitation” is like a cage, imprisoning all organic life, and while endowing them with certain characteristics, it also leaves behind drawbacks.

But now... Lou Yu’s life limit had been broken by his own hands.

From this moment on, Lou Yu clearly felt the changes in himself. His material body was infinite due to “Materials Science,” and his soul self was transcendent due to the Philosopher’s Stone!

From the moment he crossed the chasm of the biological limit, Lou Yu had departed from the category of “living things” and transformed into a special existence that ordinary people could not understand.

Su Zhiwei, who was close at hand, also vaguely felt Lou Yu’s change. She frowned, but her movements didn’t stop at all... She pushed the surrounding “strings” to the limit, approaching Lou Yu’s face, and the moment Lou Yu swallowed the sixth Philosopher’s Stone, she struck with all her might!

Countless “strings” surged like ocean waves, instantly obliterating most of Lou Yu’s body, not even leaving behind a shred of flesh or bone—it was a dissipation from the microscopic level...

The remaining half of Lou Yu’s head was gripped in Su Zhiwei’s hand. He felt Su Zhiwei’s murderous intent, but there was not a hint of fear in his eyes; instead, he looked at Su Zhiwei calmly.

Su Zhiwei didn’t stop.

Two figures flashed rapidly across the sky. Su Zhiwei made up her mind, her aura shook forcefully, and the “strings” around her rolled rapidly like a millstone, directly grinding the Lou Yu head in her hand to nothing!

Boom—!!!

The white-clad figure smashed into the earth like a meteor, and the terrifying power directly obliterated the ground into nothingness.

Rolling dust rose, and the aura belonging to the Red Dust Monarch churned in the air, while Lou Yu’s aura had completely disappeared. Su Zhiwei stood among the ruins, maintaining the posture of crushing the head, her expression not softening at all, but rather becoming more solemn.

After a while, Su Zhiwei seemed to have sensed something...

She suddenly looked back amidst the dust.

……

Tianxue Domain, several streets away.

Numerous figures were nervously crowded on the street, looking far away at the alchemical array that was about to fade...

The Wuji Monarch’s sudden attack had scared almost all the residents of the Tianxue Domain silly, especially when the Tianxue Monarch’s “Star Cluster” was defeated by the Wuji Monarch. They even felt despair in their hearts, but the Red Dust Monarch’s sudden appearance gave them new hope.

Rolling smoke rose from the streets on the edge, and the terrifying pressure of the Nine Monarchs’ battle seemed to remain in the air. At this moment, everyone swallowed nervously.

“...Who won?”

“It should be the Red Dust Monarch who won? Just now I seemed to see the Wuji Monarch’s body being scattered.”

“Great!!!”

“Scared me to death, just now I thought this domain was finished...”

“Who didn’t? That dog Wuji Monarch wiped out two streets at once and also scattered the Star Cluster left by the Tianxue Monarch. If it weren’t for the Red Dust Monarch taking action, we would probably all have died in his hands...”

“Good riddance!! Good riddance!!!”

“……”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to curse the Wuji Monarch constantly to vent the anger and fear in their hearts.

No one noticed that on a brick wall not far behind them, a strange scarlet hexagonal pattern was slowly outlined... That pattern appeared without warning, as if a ghost had silently crossed space and possessed this wall.

As the hexagonal pattern gradually protruded, the outline of a human figure made of bricks also emerged. Skin, hair, limbs, and even eyeballs were made of bricks, just like a brick man walking out of a wall. It had the hexagonal pattern on its brow, and the scene was indescribably eerie.

After he took a step out of the wall, his brick body began to transform gradually, and countless material reactions surged within his body!

With the first step, his body density expanded fifty times from the 2100kg/m3 of brick;

With the second step, the surface of his body changed from rough brick to a flexible material like human skin, even showing the pores and luster unique to humans. At the same time, his eyeballs began to change into normal human eyeballs, and his facial features were quickly reshaped.

With the third step, a wide black robe precipitated from his body, and the whole person had changed from the brick man just now into “Lou Yu.”

His heavy footsteps crushed the ground, making a dull sound. The cheering crowd turned back blankly and saw Lou Yu walking out of the red brick wall, their gazes collectively stunned...

After a brief silence, they let out sharp screams and then fled in all directions like crazy!

“Is this the ‘infinite’ that belongs only to me...”

Lou Yu looked at his hands, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Lou Yu knew very well that his strength came from “Materials Science.” He could convert the basic properties of matter at will, including his own body... As long as he wanted, he could completely turn himself into a mobile super nuclear power plant, or even a real sun. But the problem was that he had to ensure that he could change back to his original state after releasing his body, otherwise he would be no different from a suicide bomber.

And the Philosopher’s Stone perfectly solved this problem. The Philosopher’s Stone could carry his soul. Even if his body disappeared, he could still roam the world in the form of a soul. But for most alchemists, this characteristic of the Philosopher’s Stone was actually very useless... After all, if a person is dead and becomes a ghost to stay in the world forever, they can’t have a physical body, so what’s the point?

But it was different for Lou Yu. As long as his soul was still there, he could reshape his body at any time using “Materials Science.” He could be reborn in a grain of sand, a drop of water, a piece of cotton, or even a cloud of marsh gas. He could discard his material body at will and transform it into any shape. If he used it up, he could just change it... As long as there was matter within the range his soul could reach, he was immortal!

This was the combination of “Materials Science” and the Philosopher’s Stone, the dual extreme of matter and spirit, the “infinite” that belonged only to Lou Yu in the world!

“Wuji Monarch... it’s the Wuji Monarch!!!”

“He actually didn’t die?! When did he appear here?!”

“The murderer is here! Run away!!!!”

“……”

Noisy, terrified cries came from all directions, and the entire district fell into turmoil due to Lou Yu’s appearance.

Everyone had seen the scene where Lou Yu killed two districts in seconds. With this god of slaughter appearing here, their lives were probably not going to be saved... Despair and terror occupied everyone’s brains, and they fled frantically, as if a demon was chasing behind them.
