Tartarus

Chapter 696 Tartarus

"Successfully?"

Kara stared in disbelief at the large ball of light that exploded in the darkness.

"It seems so."

Ultraman—or rather, Superman and Ultraman—landed behind her and chuckled.

"Thanks to your idea."

Kara felt a little embarrassed by the praise and scratched her head: "It's alright. Actually, the tin can did help a little."

Tony: "."

The ultimate nightmare of the multiverse, the Anti-Monitor, seems to have finally been defeated. The heroes of both worlds, all those who stood up to fight for their homelands, and the Ultra Warriors from the Guard—it was the combined light of all of them that defeated this seemingly invincible foe and destroyed its immortality.

However, Shen You did not let his guard down.

Is it really that simple?

Although it was only for a moment, a sign that might not even be detectable to Superman's eyesight, he noticed it.

Shen You suddenly burst into the air, soaring into the sky. Lightning and lightning exploded on his body, and a vortex suddenly appeared in the void in front of him. He transformed into a beam of light and plunged into it, and the spatial rift disappeared immediately.

"Huh? Shen?"

Kara reached out her hand, but it was so fast that she didn't even have time to react before Shen You had disappeared.

Following a strange aura, Shen You rushed into a space shimmering with golden light. This was a very well-hidden subspace region that had always overlapped with different phases of their area, but it was difficult to detect because of its sophisticated concealment methods and the powerful energy of the anti-monitor.

Almost the instant he rushed into this space, an energy surged toward the back of his head.

Shen You reacted with lightning speed, turning around and slapping away. The shadow of the golden giant flashed out from the corner of his eye, and an incomparably domineering punch came straight at his face.

Tartarus!

"really."

Shen You deftly deflected the punch with his left palm, saying...

"The anti-surveillance agents aren't completely dead, are they?"

They destroyed the Anti-Monitor's outer shell, destroyed his body, and even nearly dissolved his energy with light. But as an individual member of the Creator race, his existence is difficult to eradicate.

Taking advantage of the moment when they delivered their final blow, Tartarus made his move under the cover of that domineering energy.

He absorbed the body that was in a near-death state and had been imprisoned.

"Surprisingly sharp, young Ultra Warrior."

Tartarus slammed his left palm down, aiming straight for Shen You's chest. Shen You flicked his wrist, releasing light energy from his palm into a vortex that dissipated the energy that struck him. At the same time, he countered with a backfist punch from his left hand.

But before he could throw a punch, Tartarus's free hand had already reached out from a concealed angle and grabbed his cheek. Shen You immediately abandoned his punch and launched a series of kicks, aiming straight for the little golden man's waist, clearly adopting a strategy of trading injury for injury.

He knew that Tartarus's physical skills were on par with experts like Leo Zero, and his mediocre skills would certainly not fare well in a direct confrontation. However, the amount of energy within him was now so immense that it was astonishing even in the multiverse, so theoretically, he could overpower him without much trouble.

But Tartarus also changed his move, dodging the kick while throwing a punch. Shen You countered with a punch, their fists colliding, the explosive recoil at that moment seemed capable of turning hundreds of universes into dust in an instant, both of them taking a few steps back.

Shen You was quite surprised.

Is the Oscar really that powerful?

With a thought, he activated his Divine Speed ​​Force, accelerating his way out from the opponent's flank. His fleeting afterimages shifted positions several times, launching a sneak attack from behind. But the little golden man still kept up with his speed, turning around and throwing another punch. The two fists collided, creating a tremendous shockwave.

As Shen You retreated, his arms immediately formed a cross, and the Specium Ray was released. Tartarus crossed his arms and thrust his palms forward, unleashing his ultimate attack, "Ultimate Destruction."

In the instant the light energies clashed, Shen You could clearly sense various mixed energies within them. Among them were some high-level and powerful special attributes, as well as antimatter annihilation resembling anti-monitoring energy, and fluctuations tinged with anti-life energy.

Even a dark red beam of light radiated from the energy boundary at the moment of impact, making several turns in mid-air, attempting to sneak attack him from behind.

Omega rays!

Shen You spun around, accelerating into the air. White light flew into the air as he spun like a top, and the radiance he emitted instantly blew away all the energy attacking from both sides.

"Omega." Shen You hovered in the air, staring directly at Tartarus. "So that's it. The hole in the Origin Wall, the missing Yuga Khan... it was you?"

"it's me."

The little golden man shouted, his palms crackling with lightning as he sped forward.

"I found those N-metal puppets, god-slaying weapons left behind by a long-vanished god. Absolut's technology cracked the puppets' programs, making them work for me."

I even found a way to exploit God within the program!

He attacked with alternating strikes, his palms crackling with golden lightning. Shen You focused his mind to parry, and the surging white light dissolved the raging lightning and annihilating fluctuations one by one.

"It's very interesting. Those puppets contained the method to release Yuga Khan. He probably hoped these puppets would help him regain his freedom. But we intercepted the puppets and deciphered the method."

Thus, the strongest god race was frozen on the Origin Wall, utterly powerless to resist.

"You absorbed him, so you possess the power of Omega."

Shen Youge unleashed a devastating burst of lightning and swung his light wheel down at him.

"Yes! The power of a former strongest being in a multiverse, the pinnacle of the new gods, is now at my disposal!"

Tartarus used golden light to materialize a spear-like weapon to block his halo, and the spinning eight-part halo continuously sawed out dazzling sparks on the spear.

"But that was just the beginning. I found the lost gods in the universe you call 'Marvel,' and I killed one god after another, absorbing their energy one by one."

I'm getting stronger every day!

Shen You finally realized where the somewhat familiar energy attribute he had sensed when he interacted with the wave came from.

The last time he saw a similar fluctuation of attribute was on Zero.

That's something from before the Big Bang in the Marvel Universe, cosmic energy, the source of the Celestials' power. Tartarus killed countless Celestials and absorbed countless amounts of cosmic energy, which is why he felt so powerful.

"And just now, thanks to you, I absorbed the residual concepts of the most powerful destroyer in this universe, the Anti-Monitor."

Tartarus's punches became even more ferocious, as if the entire world was filled with his violent energy fluctuations.

"It was an unexpected oversight that you used the hole left in the wall after taking away Yuga Khan. You are indeed an obstacle that I had to remove in my plan."

I originally planned to deal with you after making better preparations, but I didn't expect you to come to me on your own.

His eyes suddenly turned blood red, and the beam of Omega light and the golden light on his hands erupted at full power simultaneously.

"Then I'll see you off first. I'm much stronger than you now!"

"That's hard to say."

Shen You spun his palms, and the shield of life light blocked the domineering impact. Even the laws of destruction contained within were reprogrammed by the power that overwrote reality.

"They are indeed very strong, but I've done much more than just that lately."

Tartarus spun his palms around, his body radiating golden light, and began charging up his attack again.

"It was I who opened the passage between the two worlds, and it was I who revealed to the Anti-Monitor that there was a new multiverse in a place unknown to him."

I put the demon in this universe so that he could attract enough attention for me.

That way, while the gods in this Marvel world are busy dealing with the Anti-Monitor, I'll have the chance to take this right under their noses!

He made his move again as he spoke.

Ultimate Absolute Destruction!

Shen You's arms also formed the shape of an "L".

The Sinnera Ray!

The forces clashed once more, and this time he sensed something stronger and more surging within it—a more fundamental law of the universe, deeper and purer than cosmic energy.

Suddenly, he understood.

Why would the Oscar statuette need the Anti-Monitor to fight against Marvel's gods, and what he seized to obtain something that even the gods would tremble over?

The Heart of the Universe!
