Just as Johnnie was thinking, the huge Pangor Axe, as big as a mountain, slowly flew toward him.
In the next mont, a flash of white light appeared, and Johnnie's body vanished from the spot.
...
Chaos. Endless chaos!
There was nothing here. Johnnie lost his sense of direction and couldn't tell up from down. He felt like he had arrived in so unknown place.
At that mont, a voice suddenly ca from far away.
"Finally, you're back after so long."An extrely familiar voice said.
Johnnie was a little surprised. He had never heard this voice before, but deep inside, he felt an unexplainable sense of closeness and familiarity.
After a short hesitation, he started walking in the direction the voice ca from.
Soon, a small light appeared in the endless chaos.
As he got closer, the light grew bigger and bigger, eventually becoming like a huge room.
Inside the light, there was a figure sitting cross-legged, smiling and watching him.
"Welco back." the person said slowly.
Johnnie looked at him with confusion and asked cautiously."Creator God Pangor?"
The man shook his head, then nodded, and said."Yes, and no."
"What do you an?" Johnnie asked.
"My na is indeed Pangor, but if you want to understand it in your current way, I'm a system that was created."
"You can also think of as the manager of this world." the person called Pangor said.
A system?
Johnnie suddenly widened his eyes. He never expected that the system of the Universe Continent was actually a being nad Pangor.
Who could have created sothing like that?
Strong curiosity and a desire to know filled Johnnie's heart.
"Sit down for a mont." the man said gently. A small cushion appeared in front of Johnnie.
Johnnie sat down slowly.
"You probably already know sothing about the Great Catastrophe. The creator of this world really was Pangor, but that was just a fake na he gave himself."
"His real na was Johnnie." the man said, and it shocked Johnnie right away.
"Sa as mine?" Johnnie's eyes opened wide. A strange thought appeared in his mind, but it was so terrifying and hard to believe.
The system called Pangor nodded and said."Exactly. You, my Master."
"The Great Catastrophe wasn't an accident. Everything that was born is heading toward destruction. This is an unchangeable law. Even Domain Lords and other powerful beings are not immortal."
"Thousands, millions, billions of years — everything has an end."
Pangor slowly explained. The Great Catastrophe could be seen as sothing that ford the mont life first appeared.
Like a human — once you're born, you're on the way to death. In a way, life is just a path leading to death.
All races, countries, civilizations... everything in the world is constantly moving toward destruction and death.
Of course, this process is often very slow, and most people can't even understand it.
"There are many kinds of disasters. Those that can destroy a civilization or even a world are called small catastrophes. But a great catastrophe can destroy the entire universe."
"After destruction, the universe will fall into darkness and chaos again, until new life appears and starts a new cycle. This repeats over and over."
"This is the only eternal truth." said Pangor slowly.
Johnnie took a deep breath. The system nad Pangor in front of him had actually been created by him. And according to what it said, even the world where Earth was located had been created by him.
So who exactly was he? Why had he been reborn?
Johnnie was completely confused. His mind felt like a ss.
Soon, the Pangor system slowly stood up, and the light suddenly grew brighter, lighting up everything around them.
At that mont, Johnnie realized they were in a space filled with "stars." One by one, glowing stones that looked like stars floated in the air.
"Master, just touch one lightly, and you'll rember so things." the Pangor system said.
Johnnie took a deep breath. He sensed no danger at all — instead, there was a strong feeling of longing.
Without hesitation, he reached out and touched the closest "star."
A flood of image fragnts flashed in his mind: a research lab, genetic drugs, a leak, zombies, monsters...
Johnnie saw himself reborn as a researcher in a world full of viruses and monsters, constantly improving his strength, only to eventually die in a wave of monsters.
"This... this is my life?" His eyes showed confusion.
Pangor nodded and said."Yes, Master. These are all things you've experienced in other worlds."
"Earth's rebirth was the last one, and also the one with the best chance, as you told yourself."
Johnnie caught the key word and asked."Chance?"
Pangor nodded and said."Yes, you were the strongest being in the endless universe after the last great catastrophe. To find a way to survive it, you used a lot of your power and appeared in many different worlds."
"You were even in Earth once before, but at that ti, you didn't succeed, and you had very little power left."
"In the end, you took a big risk and used all your remaining power to reverse ti."
Johnnie suddenly understood. He now realized how everything had happened. His rebirth was actually connected to sothing much bigger than he had imagined.
But did he really find a way to save everything?
Was there really a way to survive the great catastrophe that had destroyed the endless universe again and again?
Johnnie took a deep breath. Before he could say anything, a frozen coffin appeared beside Pangor. Inside it lay soone—Maiev!
No, not Maiev. It was her true body!
"Master, this is your wife. She kept her power by sealing her true body in this frozen coffin, while her clone ca with you to find a way to save everything."
"Now, you can wake her up."
Wife?
Johnnie took a deep breath and gently placed his hand on the frozen coffin.
Suddenly, a powerful energy that was hard to describe rushed into his body. Then, Maiev slowly opened her eyes inside the coffin.
...
He didn't know how long he had been in this chaotic space, but eventually, he rembered everything that had happened.
"Thank you, for all your rebirths and reincarnations. Now, I have a way to survive the catastrophe."
"Ah, I can only take Earth and the Universe Continent and run away from the catastrophe. I can't stop it from happening." Johnnie sighed as he looked at Maiev.
Maiev softly leaned her head on Johnnie's shoulder and whispered."That's already good. After this catastrophe, we'll have more ti. We'll definitely find a better way."
Johnnie nodded. He slowly got up, looking around at the countless "stars" in the sky and the endless chaos. Then he suddenly opened his mouth wide.
In an instant, all the "stars" and chaos rushed into his mouth. At the sa ti, Maiev's body began to glow softly.
Divine King, God-Emperor, Divine Thearch, Source Level, Domain Lord!
Johnnie's power shot up rapidly. In just a blink of an eye, he had reached an unprecedented Domain Lord level.
"That should be enough." Johnnie said slowly. "Let's go. We need to get rid of those pests. Then we can take the others and escape the catastrophe."
He was going back to the Universe Continent now.
Maiev gave a soft nod and followed behind Johnnie. They both took a step forward at the sa ti.
The scene changed again, and Johnnie was now hovering over the Montemar Empire.
The sky was filled with dark, heavy clouds.
No, it wasn't clouds. It was a massive swarm of Star Raiders, like locusts covering the sky.
At the front were a few familiar faces. Johnnie saw Sigurd, and Liliana, and Fiorentina by her side, as well as Astraea and one of her clones.
At this point, Johnnie knew everything that had happened.
He had created this world, and now that he had regained control, he clearly understood what was going on.
"Johnnie! It's been a year — you're back!" Sigurd growled, eyes full of anger. This was the first ti Johnnie had appeared since the last battle in the ancient battlefield ruins.
Since Johnnie had killed Siegmund there, Sigurd had been searching for him nonstop. No matter what thods he used, he never found anything useful.
It was like Johnnie had just vanished.
"Johnnie, today is your day of death!" Sigurd shouted loudly.
On the city walls of the Montemar Empire, the soldiers cheered as soon as they saw Johnnie appear.
"Johnnie guru! It's Johnnie guru!"
"Johnnie guru has finally co back!"
"That's great! We might actually be saved now. Johnnie guru has been gone for a year. He should have beco a Divine King by now, right?"
"Ah, Terra Lady has already beco a Saint, but even she can only deal with a Source Level enemy. Even if Johnnie guru is now a Divine King, it still won't make much difference."
"You're right. The three God-Emperors from the Celestial Clan, plus their strongest Divine Thearch, have already appeared. But even their terrifying power couldn't do anything against those Star Raiders in the sky."
"One year... If only Johnnie guru had a little more ti."
