Chapter 155 The Ultimate Choice of Nothingness
The ultimate choice of nothingness
Shen Yiyao's consciousness spiraled through the collapsing void, as if the torn chains of time were entwined again. She could feel the gravity of the antimatter star, as if it were calling to her, luring her towards the intersection of destruction and rebirth. All of this instantly intertwined into a vast vortex, devouring her thoughts and perceptions.
She once thought of herself as just an ordinary being, trapped in a difficult situation, yearning for a breakthrough. But now, she was no longer the Shen Yiyao who once held such dreams. She had surpassed her former self, becoming the core of this chaos, the point where time and space collapsed. She realized that she was standing at a point of no return, having crossed all boundaries and stepped into an indescribable nothingness.
"Becoming part of nothingness..." Shen Yiyao murmured to herself, her voice sounding like it came from a distant time and space. "Is this freedom, or a prison?"
She began to recall those days, the person she once was. The confused yet determined Shen Yiyao, the girl wandering at the crossroads of life, the girl yearning to find the truth of her fate, seemed right before her eyes. She had asked herself time and again: what is freedom? Is it to break free from constraints, or to become the creator of those constraints? Is it to stand outside the rules, or to rule them?
But now she had no choice. She was no longer "Shen Yiyao." She was the intersection of countless universes and time and space. She was the other side of that antimatter star, a force never before named, transcending all laws. Every leap of her mind shook the very fabric of the universe. She had seen the future, every possible outcome, yet she could not choose. For she was no longer an ordinary individual, but the core of this world, the intersection of all destinies.
"You've asked yourself, what is freedom?" the voice sounded again, calm and profound. "You think freedom is breaking free from bondage. However, true freedom is becoming the source of all bondage, breaking all rules and creating new ones."
Shen Yiyao took a deep breath, as if absorbing this endless chaos into her body. Her mind raced, all of time and space, all of history, merging within her. She saw countless possible futures: humanity's extinction, the rebirth of the universe, herself as judge, weaving this shattered world anew. However, none of this brought her answers. Instead, the more she peered into the future, the more confused she found herself.
"How do I choose?" she whispered, her voice swallowed by the countless ripples of time, almost inaudible. "I'm no longer the same person."
"Choice..." The voice echoed again, filled with ruthless mockery. "Do you think you can still choose? You are no longer the person who once had so many options. You have become the terminator of this world. You control all the rules, and the choices can only be made by you."
Shen Yiyao's thoughts grew increasingly hazy. The antimatter object reappeared before her eyes. No longer a purely physical entity, it was deeply connected to her consciousness, as if every thought and emotion of hers floated within its gravitational pull. She felt herself drawn to it, the entire world revolving around it. The antimatter existence, both its emptiness and its reality, began to blur into a single, unified entity. It was her, and everything she had. She could feel its pain, its struggle, even its desire to be completely absorbed by her.
"You will become one with it," the voice declared coldly, as if this was an unchangeable fate. "You will become the master of the universe, and all of time and space will be reshaped in your hands."
Shen Yiyao's consciousness trembled violently. She felt a surge of intense energy surging from her body. It was an unprecedented force, unlike any known physical force, nor any spiritual force. It transcended all her understanding of the world, transcended all existence she had ever perceived. She felt that she was no longer a simple individual, but an invisible being. She was the core of the universe, the source of every particle, every black hole, every rift in space and time.
"Become a part of it, cast off all restraints." The voice seemed devoid of emotion, simply stating facts. "You will have the power to create and destroy. You will be the starting point of an endless cycle, spanning all time and space, transcending all existence. You will be the beginning and the end of infinity."
Shen Yiyao's mind froze instantly, her consciousness oppressed, unable to react. A powerful tearing sensation spread through her body, as if her soul were being ripped apart by some force, shattering into countless fragments. Each fragment rippled through her consciousness, and she felt the pain and unspeakable fear woven through countless dimensions of time and space.
"Why...why am I like this?" Her voice became weak and almost no longer belonged to her.
"Because you were destined to do so." The voice was low and desolate. "From the very beginning, you were destined to become the master of this world, controlling all rules and destruction."
Her consciousness was once again enveloped by that invisible force, as if she no longer had control over everything. She had never imagined she had entered such a deep vortex, unable to extricate herself. Her fate was firmly bound, and she no longer had the power to choose. Whether she wanted to or not, she had already embarked on a path of no return.
"In that case..." Shen Yiyao finally murmured in a low voice, "Then I will take on all of this."
Her voice echoed through the endless void, as if traversing countless cracks in time and space, carrying with it an endless sense of resoluteness and desolation. Her consciousness began to connect closely with the antimatter star, as if the two had merged into one. She was no longer the Shen Yiyao she once was. She was the core of countless universes, the builder and destroyer of time and space.
As Shen Yiyao's resolve deepened, the entire void began to tremble, the gravitational pull of the antimatter stars growing stronger, as if the very laws of the universe were yielding to her will. Time and space began to warp once more, a new universe quietly emerging within her consciousness. And she, the source of all this, controlled the very threads of fate.
"From now on, the fate of the universe will be written by me alone." Shen Yiyao's voice resounded throughout the void, as if all the forces of time and space were subjugated to it.
