NOVEL WEB Chapter 208: Roy vs. Hong Meng
In the Primordial Space, everything was filled with gray Hong Meng Qi, with no up or down, no concept of space or time.
It was infinitely vast, yet infinitely small.
Therefore, in reality, it made no difference where Roy and Hong Meng fought.
However, Hong Meng had created a small world within the Primordial Space as his "home." Even though the Primordial Space itself had no "space," Hong Meng wouldn't allow the battle to affect his "home."
Within the gray Primordial Space, a faint white Space-Time Corridor extended from Hong Meng's "home" into its depths, introducing the concept of "space" to the Primordial Space.
Following the "space corridor" evolved by Hong Meng, Roy and Hong Meng entered the depths of the Primordial Space, far from Hong Meng's "home."
"We've gone far enough, let's do it here."
"Okay."
A faint white light surrounded Roy. This was the "Space Power" from Roy's own Qiankun World.
Space-Time Power was a supreme power that transcended Hong Meng Power.
However, the strength of Space-Time Power was related to the strength of "space-time" itself.
Take the universe created by Hong Meng, for example. The Space-Time Power in the subsidiary universes was so weak that even space rifts couldn't cleave a Lord God Artifact. This showed just how fragile the Space Power was in the subsidiary universes.
Even the Space-Time Power in the main universe could not be called "strong."
The strongest Heavenly Venerates in the main universe were said to have completely comprehended Space Law and Time Law. But after entering the Primordial Space, their "Time Law" and "Space Law" could not evolve space-time to protect themselves. Instead, they were dissolved by the Hong Meng Qi...
This indicated that the main universe created by Hong Meng was not powerful enough.
Roy could guarantee that even if the Heavenly Venerates who had completely comprehended Time Law and Space Law from Hong Meng's main universe were thrown into his "Qiankun World," with their understanding of space-time laws, it would be very difficult for them to even create a space ripple in his Qiankun World.
Not to mention further abilities like space rifts, space shatter, or space transfer.
If they couldn't even budge the Space Power, then their comprehended Time Law naturally wouldn't be able to cause any significant disturbance in Roy's Qiankun World.
Seeing that Roy was ready, Hong Meng said no more. With a thought, worlds were born.
When fighting in the Primordial Space, if the positions of the two were not connected by space-time, they would not be on the same space-time plane. Even if they were face to face, there would be an infinite distance between them, making it impossible to attack each other.
Therefore, the Hong Meng Qi around Hong Meng instantly evolved space-time and connected with Roy's surroundings, allowing the two to exist in the same space.
"Second Brother, be careful, I'm making a move!"
Before attacking, Hong Meng kindly reminded Roy.
"Don't worry, Big Brother. If I can't take it, I'll beg for mercy."
Roy extended his hand, and a miniature bell, carved with birds, insects, fish, and the Four Divine Beasts, appeared in his hand.
This was the Hong Meng Bell, which had experienced the Origin Point Big Bang with Roy and had been strengthened by Space Power.
Facing Hong Meng, Roy dared not be careless in the slightest.
"Good!"
Seeing that Roy was ready, Hong Meng no longer held back. His figure flashed, and he rapidly charged towards Roy.
At the level of Roy and Hong Meng, forget about elements and rules like gold, wood, water, fire, earth, lightning, yin, yang, earth, wind, water, fire, light, darkness, destiny, destruction, life, and death. Even Hong Meng Qi couldn't harm them.
The only things that could cause damage in their battle were powerful Space-Time Power or Xuanhuang Qi, which was a level above Hong Meng Qi.
Hong Meng had already mastered the Xuanhuang Indestructible Body, so his physical body could also cause significant damage to Roy.
Hong Meng's speed was incredibly fast. With just a flash, he appeared before Roy and unleashed a punch.
Roy's mind moved, and the Hong Meng Bell in his hand emitted "dong dong dong" chimes.
Each chime sent out a layer of spatial ripples.
These ripples spread outward from Roy's center.
In an instant, the space between Roy and Hong Meng was infinitely stretched.
"Boom!"
A massive roar erupted from Hong Meng's fist and the space around Roy.
The white space shattered like glass under Hong Meng's punch.
With each layer of space shattered, Hong Meng's fist moved one step closer to Roy.
However, the time it took for Hong Meng to break through these dozen or so layers of space was enough for Roy to react.
Then, the Space Power from Roy's body surged into the Hong Meng Bell, enlarging it to half human height. He then slammed it towards Hong Meng's fist.
"Boom!"
Before the Hong Meng Bell could truly collide with Hong Meng's fist, layers of white Space Barrier were shattered by the immense power generated between them. Tiny worlds were born and destroyed between the punch and the bell.
"Bang!"
Hong Meng's fist broke through layers of space and collided with Roy's Hong Meng Bell.
"Crack, crack..."
Countless dazzling white lights emanated from the body of the Hong Meng Bell. These lights, like sharp blades, spread outward from the interior of the bell, making it look like a piece of porcelain on the verge of shattering.
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang..."
A crisp shattering sound echoed, and the Hong Meng Bell transformed into streaks of gray-white fragments, scattering throughout the Primordial Space.
The Hong Meng Bell, strengthened by Space Power, had actually been shattered by Hong Meng's punch?
No, it wasn't the Hong Meng Bell that was shattered, but rather the dozens of layers of space in front of the Primordial Space that were destroyed by the residual force of their collision. It looked as if the Hong Meng Bell had been shattered and dispersed.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."
Hong Meng took a step back, while the Hong Meng Bell, after colliding with Hong Meng, trembled uncontrollably. Ripples of space spread out as it dissipated the power from the collision with Hong Meng and fell back into Roy's hand.
"So strong!"
Roy was inwardly shocked. The Hong Meng Bell, enhanced by Space Power, had become a Space Artifact, far exceeding the power of a Hong Meng Spirit Artifact. Yet, in its clash with Hong Meng, it couldn't gain any advantage.
Hong Meng was still only using the body of the "Xuanhuang Indestructible Body" to fight him. If he were to also use "Xuanhuang Qi," how much stronger would he become?
"Hahahaha, exhilarating!"
After exchanging a blow with Roy, Hong Meng laughed heartily. The surrounding Hong Meng Qi manifested space-time, connecting with the space around Roy and flying towards him.
"Whoosh!"
With a thought, Roy's figure instantly disappeared. He used Space Power to teleport, evading Hong Meng's attack.
"Boom!"
The space in front of Hong Meng's fist was directly destroyed by Hong Meng's strike. An endless gray Hong Meng Qi surged in from the space that was destroyed.
However, this Hong Meng Qi was affected by the residual force of Hong Meng's punch and instantly shattered. It transformed into wind, earth, water, and fire, creating small worlds to counteract Hong Meng's power. Ultimately, these small worlds were also destroyed by the residual force of Hong Meng's punch.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang..."
Small worlds were destroyed like bubbles, unable to stir even a ripple in the endless Primordial Space.
"Whoosh!"
Roy's figure instantly appeared behind Hong Meng. The Hong Meng Bell flew from Roy's hand and enveloped Hong Meng from below. The ringing of the bell, accompanied by countless Space Blades, submerged Hong Meng.
"Hahahaha..."
Facing the onslaught of endless Space Blades, Hong Meng neither dodged nor retreated. He merely shielded his face with his hands.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom..."
The endless Space Blades struck Hong Meng's body but couldn't even cut a single strand of his hair.
"As expected of the Xuanhuang Indestructible Body, such strong defense!"
Seeing this, Roy was surprised but not entirely unexpected.
After all, he had only just reached the Qiankun Realm, and there was still a major realm separating him from the Cosmos Realm.
Roy's Space Body was stronger than Hong Meng's Body, but weaker than the Xuanhuang Indestructible Body.
However, while he couldn't injure Hong Meng, the possibility of Hong Meng injuring him with just the Xuanhuang Indestructible Body was also slim.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang..."
"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom..."
Within the Primordial Space, Roy's figure flickered incessantly. Various Space Barriers appeared between him and Hong Meng, blocking Hong Meng's attacks.
"Infinite Space!"
"Space Containment!"
"Space Shatter!"
Teleportation allowed Roy to evade Hong Meng's attacks at the most critical moments.
Infinite Space could extend the spatial distance between Roy and Hong Meng, giving Roy enough time to deal with Hong Meng's attacks.
Space Containment could bind Hong Meng's body. Although it would be broken by Hong Meng in just an instant, it was enough for Roy to execute the subsequent Space Shatter.
Space Shatter was Roy's most powerful technique currently.
This move could maximize the destructive power of Roy's Space Power.
Even Hong Meng would have several white marks on his body if struck by this move.
"Hahaha, second brother, your Space Body might be inferior to the Xuanhuang Indestructible Body in terms of toughness, but its profoundness is far superior to the Xuanhuang Indestructible Body."
After fighting for so long, Hong Meng hadn't even touched Roy's body, and he himself had been hit multiple times by Roy.
If not for the strong defense of the Xuanhuang Indestructible Body, Hong Meng might have already conceded.
"Second brother, your big brother is about to get a little serious now, so be careful."
"Okay."
Roy nodded with a focused expression.
The seriousness Hong Meng spoke of must mean he was about to use Xuanhuang Qi, right?
Xuanhuang Qi was a powerful energy born after using Hong Meng Qi to open up the Universe. It originated from Hong Meng Qi but surpassed it, considered a higher-tier energy after the energy level leap of Hong Meng Qi.
Roy's Space Power was also born after the collapse of the Hong Meng Crystal. In terms of energy level, it was also higher than Hong Meng Qi.
However, Space Power was still a notch below Xuanhuang Qi.
Only when Roy advanced to the Cosmos Realm and fused Time Power and Space Power into Space-Time Power could he be on par with Xuanhuang Qi in terms of energy level.
However, to Roy's surprise, Hong Meng did not use Xuanhuang Qi.
Hong Meng formed his right hand into a blade and struck downwards at the endless Hong Meng Qi within the Primordial Space.
In an instant, under Hong Meng's attack, this Hong Meng Qi evolved into the Five Elements and Four Symbols, with the clear Qi rising and the turbid Qi sinking.
Did Hong Meng just create a universe on the spot?
"Boom!"
The universe expanded countless times in an instant, and Roy was directly enveloped within it.
"This..."
After being enveloped by this universe, Roy quickly shielded himself with the Hong Meng Bell, casting down streams of Space Power to isolate his own space from the universe Hong Meng had created.
If the battle between Hong Meng and himself earlier was still within Roy's understanding, then after Hong Meng created a universe, the combat methods of both sides were beyond Roy's comprehension.
He could never have imagined that Hong Meng's "seriousness" would manifest as an entire universe!
When he was in the Magic Universe, Roy had once created a move called "Kingdom in the Palm," which could trap opponents in a pocket dimension he created to launch powerful attacks. He never expected that he would one day be trapped in someone else's universe.
"Boom boom boom!"
As soon as Roy shielded himself with the Hong Meng Bell, the universe seemed to recognize Roy as its enemy. Endless elemental power surged, transforming into weapons or divine beasts that attacked Roy's location.
Fortunately, to Roy's slight relief, the elemental attacks in this universe were significantly stronger than those of the Supreme Gods in the Magic Universe, but they posed no threat to him.
The intensity of these energy attacks seemed to be only at the level of the main universe's "Heavenly Venerate."
This was likely the limit of this universe.
However, he couldn't be sure how much the attack power could be amplified with Hong Meng's involvement.
Roy had no intention of finding out.
At that moment, Roy mobilized his Space Power, preparing to tear through the space of this universe and enter the Primordial Space.
"Screech!"
As soon as Roy tore through the space of this universe and before he could step through, he felt that the flow of time within this universe was very wrong.
The moment the space rift was torn open, it instantly closed.
At the same time, Hong Meng's voice reached Roy's ears.
"Second brother, ever since I heard you talk about that energy transition, I've felt that the power within the universe should be more than what is outwardly displayed."
"After my research over the years, I have finally succeeded in unifying all the powers within the universe, making them into a new kind of power."
"I have named it 'World Power'."
As Hong Meng's words fell, all the energy within this universe—the Five Elements and Four Symbols, lightning, light, darkness, yin and yang, time, space, and so on—merged into a multicolored "World Power" under Hong Meng's mighty will.
This World Power converged into a multicolored, sky-obscuring giant hand that pressed down towards Roy.
"Space Grand Hand Seal!"
Facing the incoming hand, Roy also extended his right hand. Endless Space Power transformed into a massive white palm, striking towards the hand descending from above.
"Boom!"
The colored palm and the white palm collided. In an instant, it felt as if time and space had frozen, and the world lost its color.
Then, a powerful shockwave spread outwards from the center of the two palms. The universe created by Hong Meng was instantly destroyed by this immense power.
After the universe was destroyed, Roy and Hong Meng reappeared in the Primordial Space, their palms facing each other. The white Space Power and the multicolored World Power annihilated each other, and the residual shockwaves from the collision created small worlds within the Primordial Space, only to be instantly destroyed by subsequent shockwaves.
