Systemless in a Parallel World



Expanding the soul singularity with his sheer willpower was not an easy task, but Zayn accomplished it after countless attempts.

The soul singularity formed into a golden disk, which was further shaped by piercing a hole in the center of the disk. The center was the location of the Soul Core. Zayn tore it apart slowly, layer by layer. As a result, the hole in the center of the golden disk expanded.

The golden disk turned into a ring that looked similar to the Soulrings Zayn had created in the past. However, there were a few apparent differences.

First, the ring was much larger than the Soulrings he had created before.

Second, the soul energy released by tearing apart the soul singularity was unable to move further than the golden ring that had formed around it.

The Omni Soulring formed slowly; a ring with various symbols inscribed on its surface, and a shimmering golden pool of energy at its center.

The soul energy released through the destruction of the soul singularity was locked inside the golden ring, constantly colliding with Soulring, strengthening it the more soul energy the Soul Core accumulated by transforming and compressing soul particles.

With the soul particles he had absorbed within a range of 1,000 kilometers and the millions of Soul Orbs he devoured, his Omni Soulring advanced rapidly.

It refined his divine physique, allowing him to cross the boundaries between a mortal existence and a Divine Lifeform. It was a unique experience as his body felt extremely light and as powerful as ever before.

However, Zayn also noticed a change in the center of the Omni Soulring, where the soul singularity had been located. A seed had been planted.

'The first trace of my Divinity…a sign that I've been acknowledged by the Universe's Will.' Zayn thought.

But at the same time, he could also tell that something pulled at him. It was a weak sensation that grew stronger slowly but steadily.

It was almost as if the realm fused earth revolted against him. The sensation was weird, but Zayn acknowledged it as a sign that he finally transcended the threshold of a mortal being.

He had only one task left in this place, either way; to kill the Divine King. After the Divine King was dead, Normies and Blessed would have to depend on each other to grow stronger and survive in this world. The imbalance created by the Gods and their Blessings had to be removed, and killing the Divine King was the easiest way to achieve that.

An existence just beneath a Divine Lifeform, which was the Divine King. He was not yet rejected by the realm fused earth, but he was the strongest at the same time. If he attained this with his own strength, the realm fused earth wouldn't be at an imbalance. No, it would be balanced, and everything would be fine. However, the Gods influenced the natural cause, more than they were allowed to.

Thus, Zayn had to face the Divine King before his final departure.

He spent the next few hours digesting the new power he attained until the Divine King's presence entered his range of perception. Zayn completed what he began before he descended to the ground.

Not long after, a middle-aged man whose body was covered in dozens of tattoo-like Blessings entered his sight. Not a single inch of his body was not covered in Blessings, but that was already what Zayn expected.

'A living being with the power to destroy planets, a mortal at that. To think that these Lesser Gods have gone insane…what a shame!'

The Divine King descended to the ground, following Zayn. The moment his feet touched the ground, the environment around him changed suddenly.

The battlefield to the left was frozen and cut off by earthen walls that had been engulfed with huge ice spikes while the right side of the battlefield was covered in a sea of blazing flames and crackling lightning serpents.

A moment later, the Divine King disappeared. Zayn shifted his head slightly in response, only for his expression to distort a little.

Divine King crossed the remaining distance between them in an instant, his eyes gleaming vibrant emerald. He pulled back the longsword held in his hands, getting ready to slash down with all his might. When the sword slashed down, Zayn found himself trapped in a strange sensation suddenly.

He felt dizzy as if he was drunk.

'What the?' he should be dodging the attack, not remaining unmoving in the face of danger.

All sorts of emotions wept past in his heart, wind brushed against his face, and it was only then that Zayn realized that he was already moving.

'His Divine Blessing's passive influence?' Zayn wondered while his body moved on its own. It reacted to the Divine King's attempts to influence him.

The boiling hot soul energy inside him circulated fiercely. It crashed into the boundaries of his body with the force of violent storm waves as he made his move.

The world around him moved much faster all of a sudden, and Zayn's breathing stopped for a second.

Wind blades sliced into his flesh, searing hot flames attacked him from the right, and frigid air shot toward him from the left. However, Zayn never let go of the Dragontale Twin Sabers. He grasped them tightly, gritted his teeth, and glared at the descending Divine King.

He slashed out with all his might, overcoming the influence of the Divine Blessings, blocking the longsword that slashed down at him as if it wanted to split apart the world.

The moment they collided, a terrible mixture of disorienting noise rang around his ears, and his vision blackened for a moment. The right side of his body was searing hot while the left was frigid cold. The other sensations he perceived simply disappeared.

There was no metallic screeching either, and Zayn couldn't feel that he cut through something or that he was being cut, either. It was almost as if time itself had been cut off.

Suddenly, he felt tremendous pain spreading through his entire being.
