Soul of Negary

“New data observed, a new life signature is attempting to break through the limit” in an unknown hidden place, inside of a tattered old phone booth, a half-mechanical Rip suddenly spoke up.

“Who is it? Which parallel world?” a black gorilla quickly arrived to see the report, his two thick arms were being used to prop himself up like a normal gorilla, but his body contained colorful patterns like that of a machine. A perfect amalgamation of biological and mechanical lifeforms, a unified carbon-based and silicon-based entity.

“Let me check, parallel world #8775… it’s Xu Fu” the half-mechanical Rip scowled: “Can this person really break through the limit?”

“I’ve seen his profile, the inheritor of living statues, huh?” the gorilla general pressed his head with his large finger. A large volume of data flowed through; Xu Fu’s information was then added to the gorilla general’s database.

“He is qualified to join the Unified Front” the gorilla general glanced at the half-mechanical Rip and said: “I know what you’re feeling, you were the enemies with your parallel world version of him, but right now, anybody with the potential to break through the limit is part of the strength that we need”

“Go and help him break through the limit, we need him to join us” the gorilla general said honestly.

“But that garbage doesn’t have anything resembling a cooperative spirit, he only knows how to flaunt his desires as he pleases. It was that entity’s power that created him” the half-mechanical Rip refuted.

“And I was also put together by that entity’s power. Do not equate that entity’s existence with evil, his actions against us do not contain good or evil. From certain standpoints, that entity is actually helping us” the gorilla general looked at Rip, once again telling him: “Go and help Xu Fu, Rip Z”

…

「 Damn it, Natasha… 」the Dino Sapiens roared in fury, then proceeded to be skewered by bright-red flesh spikes that rose from the ground. Being hung in mid-air, they struggled for just a bit before thoroughly losing their lives.

Black Widow’s body had already been split in half, Xu Fu holding a mass of her flesh in his hand soaked in blood.

“Inferior biological modification measures, but it is a harvest, nonetheless” Xu Fu then tossed the mass of flesh away, everyone from the Ultra Space-Time Squad were either dying or already dead around him.

Half of Rip’s body had sustained severe burns and had already lost his consciousness, a flesh feeler had plunged into his head to extract his memories.

On the other side, The Doctor’s Sonic Screwdriver was already broken in half while he was completely catatonic, similarly, his memories were also being extracted.

Constantine had banished herself into an outer-dimensional space to protect herself, but as Xu Fu was growing increasingly more powerful, his flesh feelers would eventually reach her within that outer-dimensional space.

T-800 was now completely broken. His layer of living tissues had already been ripped completely off, exposing the mechanical components underneath. Both his hyper alloy rib cage and the connecting electrical wires within had been completely ruined; some bits and pieces of black substances were still writhing above that, seemingly the anomalies that he had brought.

On another side, the situation wasn’t any better. One of Mi Ze’s arms had been completely ripped out of his torso, another arm that didn’t belong to him was reaching out from his back, his good friend Central Fu had also been reduced to a mass of flesh, currently supplying Xu Fu with nutrients.

Mi Yi who had betrayed Xu Fu halfway through was also in a similarly terrible state. His body was rapidly changing, slowly growing closer to Xu Fu’s appearance. The opportunity that he grasped this time around was a bit lacking, so he ended up being ripped apart by Xu Fu. Xu Fu’s split soul was currently assimilating Mi Yi’s body.

Major Cage was still piloting his exoskeleton, a compartment on his shoulder opened up and shot several missiles towards Xu Fu. As soon as he distracted Xu Fu, he activated the machine’s self-destruct function without hesitation, afraid that he wouldn’t even have the chance to suicide if he acted even one second later. The explosion ripped both him and the exoskeleton apart, killing him instantly.

A mass of bluish blood took Major Cage’s soul that contained that day’s memories and floated to the past. The Mystic Blood inside his body had anchored to today’s morning.

Both the energy and matter of this world had gotten so sparse that the timeline became exceptionally easy to disturb, it only took a single person’s ability to reset this entire parallel world’s timeline.

Major Cage had committed their tragic failure to mind and opened his eyes once again, his comrades were all still with him. They were currently inside the house of an imperial civilian discussing how to kill Xu Fu who had been promoted to Prime Minister.

“Tonight is a trap, the emperor has been converted into an undead” Major Cage immediately reported in detail what happened to everyone here. Xu Fu’s strength far surpassed their imaginations, not to mention his diverse set of abilities that were completely out of their expectations.

“Xu Fu shouldn’t be that powerful. He had only awakened about half a month ago, how did he suddenly gain so many hyper-advanced abilities?” Rip frowned.

When an individual was talented enough, it made sense for them to be able to develop one or two hyper-advanced abilities, but when everything they used was advanced abilities after only awakening for a short period of time, the only possible explanation would be that they had literally achieved Godhood while still in the orphanage.

…

In the royal palace, Xu Fu who wore luxurious clothing also changed. He opened his eyes wide, confusedly looked at his surroundings, then quickly became intrigued.

“A time reset ability?” Xu Fu’s advancement was beyond any beliefs. For the past half month, he had been madly absorbing every last bit of knowledge he could as nutrients to improve himself. Under immense pressure, his inspirations hadn’t ceased since that first moment, which resulted in his diverse capabilities.

In the future, when Major Cage chose to suicide and reset the timeline, Xu Fu also managed to take advantage of that to bring information back from the future.

This is exactly it, as long as I become more powerful, I’d be able to surpass this parallel world and head to other parallel worlds to absorb my other selves.

Xu Fu’s mind was moving quickly. The ability he awakened from his [Origin] was [Soul Split], the other Xu Fu from parallel worlds were essentially his involuntary split souls, which was the reason why they were able to share information with one another.

When Xu Fu could travel to other parallel worlds, he fully intended to fight against the Xu Fu of those worlds to see who was stronger. The stronger individual would become the main soul, capable of manipulating the other split souls.

This was Xu Fu’s ambition, to gain enough strength to break through the world’s limit, figure a way to travel to other parallel worlds, then devour his parallel world selves to make himself whole again.

He had a feeling that once he successfully made himself whole, he would sublime like never before.

Those little rats are certainly full of potential. I need them to become stronger, pressure me enough to complete the World – Man – Will triple synchronization and finally, break through the limits of this world.

Xu Fu stood up. After absorbing information that his future self sent back, he understood that he was a single step away from achieving the first step of his plan, but became stuck at a bottleneck. He needed stimulus, and the Ultra Space-Time Squad, as well as Mi Ze’s group, were the best possible stimulus.

“Mi Yi!” Xu Fu called out to Mi Yi who was next to him, grinning: “I need you to do something”
