Chapter 881 Sword Art Online (End)
[Also, you noticed that there was another "you" beside the Awakened One. You were a much weaker you, whose origins were unknown. You wore the same cassock as the Awakened One, and your strength was less than ten times that of the Zhu Baokun. Were you defeated by the other and converted to Buddhism?]
The ensuing battle will be one of the toughest you've ever faced. In the Fate series, the prototype for the Awakened One is believed to be Shakyamuni Tathagata, the founder of Buddhism, who attained enlightenment and became the Buddha. His attack and defense are impeccable, and his face exudes invincibility. However, according to his opponent's words, this "He" isn't his true form, but a Servant of the Savior rank, whose abilities are limited to the scope of his Servant. This gives you a chance to defeat him.
A gigantic bodhi tree phantom appeared behind him. This was the opponent's ability, Bodhi Tree Enlightenment, which unconditionally weakened the damage received from physical attacks, conceptual attacks, and interdimensional attacks, and even completely blocked mental interference.
His other Noble Phantasm, the Heavenly Wheel Holy King, has a large wheel that can trigger a "death phase," rendering him nearly invulnerable, granting him immortality that even evades the Noble Phantasms of his Servants. The small wheel is equipped with a massive weapon modeled after the "Seven Weapons" wielded by the "King of War, Chakravartin," and upon striking, it has the special effect of severing the opponent's magic power and sealing them.
Once fully deployed, it boasts a diameter of 7000 meters, making it an all-weather, encircling, automated mobile turret. It possesses autonomous functions, enabling automatic defense. The initial number of small rounds is one. This number increases over time, reaching a maximum of seven.
During the battle with Nero, He used the weapon mounted on his wheel to knock Nero down to the lowest level of the Spirit World, 380,000 kilometers from the Threshold of Blazing Heaven. The massive explosion upon impact blew away the surface of the earth and all structures above it, transforming the underlying terrain into a tomb-like "Border Hell." This blow trapped Nero in a death-like seal that lasted nearly a thousand years.
"Buddha, have mercy on me!" The slightly joyful prayers of His followers echoed around them. Then, as the small wheel slowly unfolded, a massive cannon barrel aimed at you, followed by a terrifying threat of death. This was a blow of mercy!
Instantly, your body is engulfed in a series of explosions. The surrounding ground cracks, sending countless pieces of sand and gravel flying. Amidst a puff of thick smoke, you shoot out like lightning, instantly creating a massive crater reaching all the way to the center of the Earth. As you charge forward, you activate True Sword Immortal mode. Before everyone's eyes, a golden veil of immortal energy drapes over your body.
The ensuing battle was incredibly fierce. Empowered by True Sword Immortal mode, your sword energy was like a spitting green snake, each strike weighing more than the last. With your immensely powerful and endless Five Elements Qi and overwhelming sword intent, you briefly overwhelmed your opponent. However, his defense was nearly invincible, and his close combat abilities were comparable to yours, resulting in a prolonged stalemate.
[Faced with this situation, you had no choice but to go all out. The next moment, you unhesitatingly chose to use True Sword Twenty-Three with all your strength.]
Everything within the sword barrier instantly pauses. You exert all your might, unleashing a sword strike capable of annihilating everything, striking the opponent in an instant. A trace of visibly surprised the Awakener's face. A second later, his body begins to crumble slightly, but at the same time, the phantoms of the twin sala trees, a repetitive cycle of blooming and withering, appear around him. The opponent's collapse halts instantly. For the first time, Sword Twenty-Three, who could only swing twice, fails to achieve a complete victory.
As time passed, the number of small wheels gradually increased. Before long, there were seven small wheels. Then, the seven small wheels became rainbow-colored and combined together to form a huge disk.
"When the Heavenly Wheel declares, all living beings, all suffering, will return to me. With great enlightenment, humanity will become one..." At this moment, the opponent activates the True Name Release, and an extremely huge and brilliant light surges from the center of the disk, rushing towards you.
This is the ultimate "anti-personnel Noble Phantasm," the ultimate attack "Reincarnation," which can only be unleashed when the number of chakras reaches seven. It concentrates energy comparable to the principle of human creation onto a single enemy, freeing them from suffering. Damage value: 5.67 billion.
At this point, all the onlookers thought you were destined to die here, and they all cheered. But only the Awakened One among them noticed that a sarcastic smile had spread across your face. You were actually laughing.
[Since fate has brought you to this world, everything must have been planned long ago. How could you be so afraid of death that you dare not draw your sword?]
[At this moment, you no longer care about the danger of your body fracturing, and swing your sword with all your might, once again unleashing True Sword Twenty-Three. This is a strike that you place all your strength into. Sword!]
In an instant, everything pauses. The three-foot-long sword in your hand suddenly glows like a sword, emitting a trembling sound of metal. It's the sword responding to you. A moment later, you swing with the most powerful sword you can. It's extremely beautiful, and also extremely painful!
The left half of your body began to burn and crumble. The Awakened One's face was first filled with surprise, then relief, a smile. The next second, his body was erased bit by bit, completely dissipating. Only his words lingered for a long time: The Awakened One has long since departed. The Sage has also burned up. The Heavenly Wheel continues to turn.
[In a sense, the other party did not lose, they just left this parallel universe.]
The surroundings were silent. The two wheels, one large and one small, that He had left behind, continued to rotate, now restored to their original size. For a moment, no one dared to approach. You covered your left shoulder, a genuine smile on your face, for just then, you had received a hint.
[Congratulations, you defeated the Awakened One, Zhou Ning. Defeat or kill the other you in this world. Progress (2/3).]
You glance around, bend down, and gently grasp the two wheels, one large and one small. At the same moment, a massive explosion erupts from the wheels. You look grimly at the remaining "you," a smile playing on your lips. You brush off the remaining dust from your hands and take the wheels into your arms, a gesture of respect for your strongest enemy yet. (You obtain the Miraculous Item: Heavenly Wheel Saint King)
"Wait, let me go! I just want to live a peaceful life, as still and tranquil as a plant!" You ignored his pleas for mercy and thrust the sword into his chest.
[Congratulations, you defeated ordinary office worker Zhou Ning. Defeat or kill the other you in this world. Progress (3/3).]
[Congratulations, you have completely comprehended the Law of Annihilation.]
[As expected, the reminder to complete the mission came to your mind again. Fate has indeed arranged everything.]
The moment has arrived for you to choose your departure from this world. At this moment, faint rumbles of thunder echoed from the sky. You glanced back and saw dejected expressions on the faces of everyone in the Sinyel Empire, from top to bottom. Unbeknownst to you, the fruit farmer, the succubus Samantha, the ogre Yagu Yagu, and the others had arrived, staring in amazement at the devastated scene. Despite your disgrace, despite the left side of your body shattered and stained red with blood, you, with your eyes slightly closed, remained unfazed, a presence of transcendence. Amidst the flashes of lightning and the howling wind, you seemed ready to soar into the air.
[Have you already killed that alien god? What are you going to do next? This is the question on everyone's mind.]
Then, you look up at them and smile, hoping they'll have a peaceful and smooth life ahead. You swing your sword and slash through the air. Instantly, a gate of light, shrouded in lightning, appears in the air, ablaze with stars, a holy and solemn aura.
[With your hands behind your back, you step into the gate of light without stopping. This scene has become an eternal classic in this world!]
[Congratulations! You've completed a truly magnificent journey!]
