The System's skill progression operated on an exponential curve. At Level 1, a skill's power was vastly inferior to the original character's baseline. At Level 3, it perfectly mirrored the original character's absolute peak.
But at Level 4... the skill completely transcended the conceptual limits of the original template, reaching an entirely new, apocalyptic dimension of power!
Throughout the recent battles, Su Mu had been continuously firing off Cursed Technique Reversal: Red, steadily accumulating experience points. And just moments ago, Red had finally crossed the threshold!
An impossibly massive deluge of esoteric knowledge and conceptual mastery violently flooded Su Mu's mind. The data load was so astronomically dense that, for the first time, even the Level 4 Six Eyes couldn't instantaneously and effortlessly process all of it!
Merely assimilating a fraction of this new knowledge caused the destructive yield of Red to skyrocket uncontrollably!
Previously, a direct hit from Red would only inflict minor injuries on the hyper-durable physical vessels of the Eternals. Aside from Hollow Technique: Purple, Su Mu had lacked a quick, casual method to reliably execute them.
But with Red reaching Level 4, that dynamic was absolutely, fundamentally flipped!
Because the conceptual power of Red was expanding so violently and rapidly, Su Mu temporarily lost his perfect grip on his cursed energy. A fraction of the apocalyptic power leaked out!
BOOM!
A catastrophic storm of black-red lightning—which was actually hyper-condensed spatial repulsion—violently erupted around his body!
The terrifying repulsive force instantly shattered the stone island Sersi had transmuted beneath him, sinking it into the abyss. Using Su Mu as the epicenter, the ocean itself was violently pushed away, carving a massive, perfectly spherical crater into the sea with a radius of hundreds of meters!
Every single arc of black-red lightning that struck the churning walls of water instantaneously vaporized dozens of cubic meters of seawater into nothingness!
Makkari attempted to breach the storm, hoping to decapitate Su Mu with her molecular blade. But before she could even get close, the dense net of repulsive lightning violently swatted her away, leaving her bleeding from multiple lacerations!
Kingo, a master of energy manipulation, stared at the storm in absolute horror. "We need to kill him right now! For some reason, his energy output is continuously spiking!"
Ajak's heart plummeted as she instantly recalled a heavily highlighted section from The Leader's intelligence dossier:
The White Demon's evolutionary potential has no theoretical limit. He grows stronger every single second, and the rate of his growth is actively accelerating!
Could a mutant—a mere genetic offshoot of the Deviants—truly reach this level of absolute, cosmic godhood?!
Ajak stared in paralyzing disbelief at the blinding storm of black-red lightning. The energy radiating from the White Demon currently vastly eclipsed even the absolute peak of Ikaris! And terrifyingly, the readings were still climbing!
"Attack him!" Ajak shrieked desperately. "Before he fully adapts to this new power!"
Makkari, the cosmic speedster, charged again. Pushing her physical vessel far beyond its absolute limits, her velocity multiplied exponentially!
Miraculously, she managed to weave through the apocalyptic storm of black-red lightning, breaching the repulsive field and arriving directly in front of the White Demon. She raised her molecular blade, ready to thrust it through his heart.
But just as she moved to strike, she realized with absolute dread that the White Demon's crystalline blue eyes were already locked dead onto her.
In the next microsecond—an unprecedented, catastrophic wave of absolute repulsive force erupted from the White Demon's body in a perfect, 360-degree omnidirectional blast!
It was as if he was deliberately venting his overflowing power, violently annihilating everything in his vicinity!
Being at point-blank range, Makkari took the absolute brunt of the blast. Her cosmic armor—forged by the Celestials to be infinitely harder than Adamantium—violently cracked and shattered! Her bones pulverized instantly.
Launched backward at dozens of times the speed of sound, her mangled body violently collided with Sprite, who was hiding in the rear. The sheer kinetic transfer of the impact instantly obliterated Sprite's hands!
Having vented the excess energy, Su Mu finally stabilized his absolute control over the Level 4 Cursed Technique Reversal: Red!
As the second most destructive technique in his arsenal behind Purple, the absolute baseline power of Red was inherently twice that of Blue!
If a Level 4 Blue could violently compress space to forge a localized black hole... what apocalyptic nightmare would a Level 4 Red—which was conceptually twice as powerful—manifest?!
The black-red lightning was still violently arcing around him, but Su Mu made absolutely no effort to suppress it or conserve his energy. He wanted to let loose. He wanted to test the absolute, terrifying ceiling of his new power!
Three Infinity Stones seamlessly floated out of his invisible pocket dimension. The yellow Mind Stone, the blue Space Stone, and the crimson Reality Stone slowly orbited his body, violently pumping an unfathomable, infinite ocean of cosmic energy directly into his cursed pathways!
Looking down at the terrified Eternals, Su Mu flashed a brilliant, sadistic smile and slowly raised his right arm to the heavens!
Under his absolute, micro-level manipulation, the chaotic storm of black-red lightning abruptly stopped striking the ocean and began converging directly above his open palm!
A hyper-condensed singularity rapidly formed and began to expand exponentially. But as it grew denser and more terrifying, its color began to shift. The deep, pitch black-red slowly lightened, burning brighter and brighter until it radiated a blinding, incandescent red-white light!
Because of the inherent nature of cursed energy, the original Blue was an azure blue, and the original Red was a dark, bloody crimson.
But as their conceptual boundaries were pushed to the absolute extreme, Blue darkened into the pitch-black void of a literal black hole.
And Red, mirroring the absolute zenith of explosive divergence, brightened until it perfectly replicated the blinding, incandescent fury of a true Supernova!
It was as if Su Mu was casually holding a literal, newborn star in the palm of his hand!
Even without him actively directing the attack, the sheer, ambient repulsive force radiating from the miniature supernova violently pushed the ocean waters apart for thousands of meters, completely exposing the barren seabed beneath them!
The resulting displacement of millions of tons of seawater triggered a colossal, apocalyptic mega-tsunami that threatened to wipe out the coastlines of several surrounding nations.
High above the clouds, a sparking golden portal spun open. The Ancient One stepped out, looking down at the apocalyptic waves. She let out a profound, weary sigh as she began casting massive containment spells to neutralize the tsunami and save millions of lives.
"I knew it would come to this..." she murmured helplessly.
Far across the cosmos, in the golden halls of Asgard, Odin abruptly paused his conversation with Frigga. He turned his single eye toward Midgard, his expression incredibly complex.
"What an absolutely terrifying young man..." the All-Father whispered.
Back on Earth, inside the subterranean bunker, William Stryker and the three super-geniuses stared at the apocalyptic energy readings spiking on their monitors. Their minds completely broke.
"This is impossible... this is mathematically impossible!" Stryker mumbled in absolute despair.
Meanwhile, hovering over the exposed seabed, the Eternals stared up at the blinding, apocalyptic Supernova in the sky.
"Quick!" Ajak shrieked, absolute panic tearing at her voice. "Inject the Red Hulk Serum!"
Without hesitation, every single Eternal pulled out a vial filled with a glowing, crystalline red liquid. Using specialized Adamantium needles, they violently injected the serum directly into their veins!
In an instant, their skin mutated, turning a deep, violent crimson! The synthetic gamma radiation violently and perfectly fused with their innate cosmic energy. Their muscles bulged grotesquely as their already terrifying physical stats multiplied exponentially!
But even as they roared, pulsing with the combined might of Gods and Hulks... standing before the blinding fury of a literal Supernova, they still felt like completely insignificant ants.
In the next microsecond, Su Mu brought his arm down.
The Supernova violently shattered the fabric of space as it plummeted toward them!
It was as if the sky itself was collapsing!
