Zzzzt—Splurt!

  The red light blade met no resistance, slashing fiercely upward from the base of the massive finger that resembled a pillar of heaven.

  Like a hot knife through butter.

  Accompanied by a scream that boiled the entire Blood Sea, the Blood Sea Ancestor's finger, along with the infinite mana condensed at its tip, was neatly severed.

  KA-BOOM!!!

  The severed finger crashed into the sea, raising waves a thousand meters high. Scalding divine blood sprayed like magma, dyeing Slayer's shields dark red.

  The Ancestor's giant face twisted in pain.

  "Pain... I... actually felt pain?"

  Since Pangu split heaven and earth, he had embodied the Blood Sea, immortal and indestructible. No one had ever been able to harm his true body.

  But this tiny thing before him...

  The Ancestor's gaze changed. From disdain to solemnity.

  "If so... then let you witness true divine power."

  The Ancestor stopped being arrogant.

  His giant face slowly faded, turning back into formless blood water. Immediately after, billions of crimson lotuses bloomed on the sea surface.

  [Divine Ability: Red Lotus Karmic Fire Grand Array]

  Every lotus represented a thread of karma, a layer of defense.

  They bloomed layer upon layer in front of Slayer, forming a semi-transparent absolute barrier flowing with golden runes.

  This was not a physical shield.

  This was Conceptual Defense.

  On the cliff, Daoist Singularity looked at the frantically alarming data on his tablet, his face pale.

  "Big Hero! Retreat! That's a 'Causality Shield'!"

  Singularity roared through the communicator: "That's 'Invincibility' on the rule level! As long as he is in the Blood Sea, the damage of any physical attack will be judged as '0'! It's like he's modifying the game code and locking his health!"

  Slayer stood on the floating corpse island.

  He looked at the barrier in front of him that couldn't even reflect a shadow.

  The Crucible Blade, which was unstoppable just now, slashed at it and actually passed right through, as if slashing at air, causing no damage.

  Ineffective.

  The Ancestor's voice came from all directions, carrying a hint of mockery:

  "Ignorant barbarian. This is the law of Heaven's Way. Your brute force is useless against me..."

  If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

  Slayer sheathed the Crucible Blade.

  He certainly didn't understand what causality or code-locked health meant.

  He only knew one simple logic:

  If one cut doesn't break it, cut it ten thousand times.

  If the force isn't enough, increase the output power.

  If physical attacks are ineffective, the yield isn't high enough.

  Click-clack.

  Slayer pulled out the heavy M134 Minigun (Chaingun) from his back.

  But that wasn't enough.

  He pressed the transform button on the gun body.

  Click-click-click—!

  The original six barrels instantly split and unfolded, turning into four independent rotating autocannons.

  [Weapon Mod: Mobile Turret.]

  [Fire Rate: Overload Class.]

  [Status: Heat Dissipation Full Open.]

  Slayer stomped his feet, shattering the bone island beneath him, pinning his body to the ground like a nail to counteract the impending terrifying recoil.

  Then, he clamped down on the trigger.

  BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT!!!!!!

  What spewed from the muzzle was no longer tongues of fire, but a continuous, dazzling metal storm.

  Countless enchanted armor-piercing rounds, converging into a blinding whip of fire, bombarded the same spot on the Ancestor's "Causality Shield" at a rate of thousands of rounds per second.

  Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding—!

  Initially, the bullets hit the shield and were all bounced off or disappeared directly.

  System Judgment: Damage 0.

  System Judgment: Damage 0.

  System Judgment: Damage 0.

  The Ancestor sneered: "Futile..."

  However.

  Slayer didn't release the trigger.

  Continuous Output. Continuous Output. Continuous Output.

  One second, three thousand rounds.

  Ten seconds, thirty thousand rounds.

  The divine power of destruction within Slayer poured into the gun body along his arms, coating the bullets made of ordinary iron with a layer of dark red destruction rules.

  On Singularity's tablet, the "∞" symbol representing the Ancestor's shield suddenly began to flicker.

  [Warning: Data Overflow.]

  [Warning: Calculation Overload.]

  The essence of Causality Defense is "Calculation" and "Offset." Every bullet required the Ancestor to consume a portion of divine will to judge it invalid.

  But Slayer's attack speed was Too Fast.

  Fast enough to exceed the limit of the Ancestor's divine will calculation.

  This was like attacking a supercomputer with massive amounts of junk data (DDoS Attack).

  As long as the traffic is large enough, the server will crash.

  Thirty seconds later.

  BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT——!

  The barrels of the minigun were glowing red-hot, even starting to melt. Slayer's armor was also smoking under the high heat.

  But he still didn't stop.

  Finally.

  Crack.

  An extremely faint sound, like glass cracking, seemed exceptionally clear amidst the roar of gunfire.

  The Ancestor's laughter stopped abruptly.

  On his "Absolute Defense" Red Lotus Barrier, a tiny crack appeared.

  Immediately after.

  Crack, crack, crack!

  The cracks spread crazily like a spiderweb.

  "This... this is impossible..." Fear appeared in the Ancestor's voice for the first time. "This is a Rule! This is the Heavenly Way! How can you break rules with brute force?!"

  Slayer didn't answer.

  Because his response was a fiercer roar.

  BOOM!

  The minigun overheated and exploded.

  Slayer casually threw away the scrapped barrels.

  He didn't pause at all. Using the momentary stiffness when the shield shattered, he charged up like a cannonball.

  Although the gun was gone.

  He still had Fists.

  Slayer's right fist clenched, Black Gold Arm Blade popping out.

  Aiming at the Causality Barrier now covered in cracks.

  Charge.

  Heavy Strike.

  BOOM——————!!!

  Accompanied by a loud noise like a mirror shattering, the sky-full of red lotus petals exploded into powder.

  The conceptual shield known as "Invincible" was Physically Penetrated.

  Behind the barrier, the Blood Sea Ancestor, who had just re-condensed his physical face, was now full of disbelief.

  He watched the man who broke through the fragments, radiating an aura more terrifying than a demon, rushing straight at him.

  "Concept vs Brute Force."

  Singularity watched dumbfounded from the cliff, the tablet slipping from his hand and hitting the ground with a snap.

  "He... he punched... Causality to pieces?"

  "This isn't scientific... and it's not metaphysical either..."

  "This is simply... Brute Force Cracking."

  Slayer rushed to the Ancestor's giant face.

  He didn't give this Ancient God any chance to ponder life.

  Arm blade swept across.

  Target: Those eyes filled with fear.

  "Next chapter, Singularity's Panic. Slayer is fighting too happily; he's about to crash the Underworld's underlying server."
