"I finally found it!"
After constantly increasing his superluminal flight speed for over a month, Shin felt that his maximum superluminal flight speed had multiplied several times through continuous training and self-evolution. Only then did he find the entry point for the Zerg into the universe.
Rather than a single entry point, it was more of an entry region. Within an area of one or two light-years, numerous spatial rifts were scattered, some as large as giant stars, others as small as ten to twelve meters.
Countless Zerg were continuously pouring out from here, and the entire region was filled with Zerg warships and high-level Zerg.
Having found his target, Shin didn't hesitate. He transformed into a beam of light and instantly crashed into a regular rift the size of a city.
After knocking away a few small Zerg warships and killing several giant cosmic Zerg, the entire rift was in chaos for a while. The Zerg then confirmed that a humanoid creature had just flown in, but by then, Shin had already entered the negative space and flown an unknown distance away.
Negative space appeared as a void, occasionally dotted with fragmented meteorites and nearly extinguished stars, and around these, large numbers of Zerg were present.
Even more terrifying, the entire negative space had extremely high radiation levels. If a normal human stayed in this negative space, they would turn into a puddle of green pus within ten minutes, their bones melted by the high radiation.
Yet, the Zerg thrived here. These creatures had almost consumed most of the organic matter in the entire universe and had now evolved the ability to absorb radiation for growth. It truly showed their resilience, having evolved from cockroaches.
A species capable of destroying the entire universe and becoming the strongest, even with the cosmic control rod's cheat, inherently demonstrates the terrifying nature of these Zerg.
Upon entering negative space, the cosmic control rod immediately underwent a massive change, its power greatly increasing. Simply holding the control rod, Shin could sense all the Zerg in the entire universe—an astronomical number beyond imagination.
And this was despite three-tenths of the Zerg having already moved into the universe where Shin was; otherwise, the number would be even greater.
In negative cosmic space, the cosmic control rod could almost be considered an enhanced version of the Infinity Gauntlet. The only problem was that its energy wasn't very abundant, likely only usable a few times.
However, Shin didn't need the cosmic control rod to be used many times. In his opinion, three or four uses would be sufficient.
Having arrived in negative cosmic space, Shin didn't need to conceal his actions. First, with a wave of the cosmic control rod, all spatial gates leading to this universe were shut down.
Then, with another wave of his hand, all the matter in the entire universe began to condense, finally forming a continent almost several hundred light-years long and wide beneath Shin's feet.
Normally, such a massive object could not possibly exist in the entire universe. Even a spherical planet would have long since collapsed into a black hole under the force of gravity. However, with the cosmic control rod adjusting it, the gravity of this object was perfectly normal, without any anomalies.
And on this super-gigantic continent, hundreds of light-years across, various sizes of Zerg crawled, piled tens of thousands of meters high, in an incalculable number.
Finally, Shin took out the largest Divine Tree he currently possessed from his hand, and then pointed the cosmic control rod at the entire Divine Tree. The Divine Tree instantly expanded, rooting itself on the continent, soaring into the clouds. Each leaf was like a world, and the flower at the very top was hundreds of thousands of times larger than the sun.
The cosmic control rod was now covered in cracks, but Shin had no reservations. He exerted all the chakra in his body, amplified by the cosmic control rod, draining every last bit of power from the rod to unleash an Infinite Tsukuyomi beyond his imagination!
An Infinite Tsukuyomi with a range of several hundred light-years! One light-year is almost equivalent to eight hundred million times the diameter of the Earth! Several hundred light-years would be equivalent to several hundred billion times the area of the Earth!
An Infinite Tsukuyomi of this magnitude, even with Shin's current Superman physique, would be absolutely impossible to cast. It could only truly be used with the blessing of a cosmic rule-level artifact like the cosmic control rod.
The Infinite Tsukuyomi, imbued with the power of rules, completely ignored the Zerg's mental resistance. Complex symbols instantly appeared in the eyes of all Zerg. The impossibly huge Divine Tree in the sky continued to grow, gradually becoming ethereal. Under the light of the flower at the top of the Divine Tree, the Zerg gradually transformed into glowing orbs and merged into the Divine Tree.
Finally, as the cosmic control rod in Shin's hand turned to ash and gradually disappeared, the entire Divine Tree and continent transformed into a peculiar, tree-shaped alternate dimension. The Chakra Fruit that formed at its very top, like a dazzling sun, fell into Shin's hand.
Looking at this object, which resembled a small sun and had no fruit-like shape, Shin blinked, genuinely hesitant to eat it.
Just by being exposed to this light, Shin could feel his chakra multiplying and increasing. If he ate this, would he explode on the spot?
This was a Chakra Fruit formed from the life force of all the Zerg, and even some remnants of a universe! It was only because Shin possessed a Superman physique that the question of whether he would explode arose. An ordinary person, merely exposed to the fruit's light, would likely be burst apart by the rapidly increasing chakra within their body.
After Shin unleashed such an Infinite Tsukuyomi, all the life force of the entire universe could be said to have condensed into this single fruit. Even with his Superman physique, he couldn't guarantee that he would be fine after eating it.
"Forget it, no matter what, at least I have the Eight-Headed Serpent Fruit as a backup! I'll eat it first!"
Shin gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and swallowed the small sun in one bite.
With a rumble, it was as if a million stars exploded within Shin's body. The Sentry's so-called power of a million stars referred to the primal universe he was connected to, not that his body contained the power of a million stars. But Shin now truly and clearly felt what it was like to have the power of a million stars within himself.
No, even more than a million stars! Even the sun appears incredibly tiny on the scale of light-years, yet Shin had absorbed all the life force from a continent tens of light-years in diameter. This power could truly be described as explosively strong.
Shin felt that the energy within his body might even be approaching that of hundreds of millions of stars!
