Sky Shadow's eyes subtly changed, feeling an unusual ripple for an instant. "What's happening, Feng Yi? Your body seems to have undergone a subtle change."

"Very observant. Just now, I increased my personal index to 2 trillion."

"What did you say, 2 trillion? And you reached that level so easily."

"Yes, the Third Rhythm begins with reality, stays close to reality, merges into reality, yet exceeds it. It's a transcendent force beyond the laws of the universe."

"Damn it, damn it!" Sky Shadow was unwilling, so unwilling! "That's impossible, since your strength reached 2 trillion why didn't I sense the change in your body's intensity."

Feng Yi shook his head, "Though it's subtle, you did sense it. The reason your perception is vague is because in this state, I can perfectly control the structure of my aura, freely regulating my power."

Sweat was trickling down everyone's foreheads...

"I can hardly imagine what would have happened if you hadn't controlled your power just now."

"This Sky City would have surely shattered."

But, damn, that's just too exaggerated, "What was the approximate standard of your attack strength at that time?"

"Hmm..."

Feng Yi put his hand to his chin, switching repeatedly to observer status, not too confidently said: "The scale varies, leading to different outcomes. The increment in power comes with many unknown possibilities. Considering the hardness of the material structure and various inertial factors, the stored power of my attack then could roughly destroy half the moon."

"What did you say!?" Sky Shadow was dumbfounded... however, his initial shock was quickly replaced by anger. This was too hateful, why? His continuous improvements should have infinitely closed the gap between him and Feng Yi, but who knew, the result would be Feng Yi easily surpassing him. Sky Shadow couldn't accept this fact.

"Hehe, you don't need to feel disappointed. Personally, I don't lean towards the transcendent state."

"Tch." Sky Shadow spat, "Spare me the comforting words."

"It's not comfort, besides..." Feng Yi shrugged and explained to everyone, "All matter has relative causality. Transcendent power may change some aspects, but it violates the operating laws of the real universe, breaking the balance rules, which might result in many unknown consequences. So even I will use this power only at the micro level."

"How should we correctly understand your words?" The one who asked the question was Kexiao.

Feng Yi said, "The balance of cosmic matter remains unchanged. I've never tried to break the operating laws of the universe. What you see of my current body is still composed of its basic elements—like the battle between me and the Titan Spirit Demon. It pierced my body with a light attribute spear, which was power from 3.5-dimensional alternate space. To balance this, I destroyed it with transcendent power of the dark attribute. Or take the appearance of the 'Bizarre', I could have instantly destroyed it with transcendent power, but I didn't."

Everyone's hearts skipped a beat, that guy really still... Blade Warrior said: "Are you saying the Bizarre isn't dead!?"

"That's right, our battle might not have ended." Feng Yi explained, "I opened the interdimensional gateway linking to this world through the conversion of the basic laws of the universe, which is the 3.5-dimensional alternate space. Lastly, the Bizarre was exiled there by the 'Void' demon of the Titan Spirit. Because spatial ability stems from the Void itself, this doesn't count as breaking the universe's rules—as you all know, Protector Jin and Zhan Yu's bodies, they should have died. I only changed their life structures with transcendent power, preserving their lives through early depletion, at the cost of them never being able to fight again."

Xiu Yi thought for a moment and said: "Brother Feng, I clearly remember during the journey through the Magic Crystal civilization's inner world, you chased that monster with the Third Rhythm, which is the source of my inner fear, a fictional monster from a film called Kayako. In a certain sense, wouldn't that count as breaking the universe's balance?"

"It doesn't count. That space was a disintegrating world detached from reality. Back then, I was on the brink of death, not yet mastering the transcendent power, controlling my final consciousness with only the Third Rhythm to lock onto it. Since its existence wasn't recognized by the Third Law of the Universe, we were mutually contradictory, one of us had to die—in other words, it was a clash between reality and falsehood, a battle where either of us could perish. Either the law's failure leads to a paradox causing unknown consequences, or it dies outright. While there was a gambling element to it, the Third Rhythm law clearly transcended curses. Even within alternate space, the phenomenon of the grand universe remains supreme. Hence, as its existence isn't acknowledged, it gets erased. This didn't break the universe's balance."

Kexiao thought for a moment and said, "That indeed is a power beyond everything, but how would you explain your strength of 2 trillion? Even if it belongs to your power, it could also be considered part of 'transcendence' to some extent."

There's truth in those words. Feng Yi didn't comment on it, but he only altered his structure using transcendent power, raising his strength to 2 billion, 2 trillion—or even higher. Even at a higher level, he hasn't unleashed this power. Digging deeper, even if he did unleash this power, he would alter its release through forms of cosmic matter transformation, not violating universe operation rules. However, his attack on the Titan ancestor was the release of observer power, a dimensional reduction strike, fundamentally different between the two.

"That's how it is." Feng Yi concluded his explanation and suddenly changed the topic, "I think you'd better talk with Allen, as his understanding of this world is more valuable than what humans have to say."

"Let's go, Feng Yi, I don't want to talk anymore. Compared to this, humans always have to rely on their own efforts to progress. Talking more about these concepts is just abstract."

"Won't you talk a bit more?"

"That might not be a good thing." Allen looked towards the endless starry sky and said wistfully, "But I believe in miracles, just as you have created everything. Hopefully, humans can break limitations and attempt possibilities of the heart."

"New possibilities..." chewing over these words, Blade Warrior was thoughtful...

"Indeed, the knowledge that advanced civilizations possess is far richer than humans', but they also abandon many things during their evolutionary stages, either in their rigid thinking or in their desire to explore. Yet humans are different, emotions and thoughts are your distinctive features. Force-feeding growth might accelerate or even alter the original trajectory of humanity, akin to the prematurely advanced labor wealth of nations. Faced with greedy desires, even your so-called white-cloaked angels are constantly trying to extend healing time by reducing medication doses to seek more benefits. The government is colluding with them to exploit tax revenue, forming a huge production body of countless organizations. But I believe there will always be some who will gradually realize and create new miracles amidst oppression. As I said before, you shouldn't merely seek warmth from each other, instead you should try to ignite more souls, like the transcendent power Feng Yi awakened against the current."
