"There is no need to pay attention to the one-digit Wind of Decline. That itself is the final trial prepared for gods and Buddhas, a product meant for amusement."
In other words, to people like Rin, who come from outside the world, the Wind of Decline, which cannot even leave Little Garden itself, can be completely ignored.
After all, Little Garden is only a special world within that universe, roughly the size of a stellar surface area.
The Little Garden multiverse is greater than the single Little Garden universe, which is greater than Little Garden itself.
And the place where Rin is located is still outside the Little Garden multiverse, belonging to a realm beyond even that!
"Rin."
Just as Rin was explaining information about Little Garden and some of the powerful beings there to the three women, Violet's voice came over. "The analysis is almost complete. Now only the final step remains."
"Mm."
Rin stopped chatting with the women and took a single step, instantly appearing at the core of the Void Universe.
"Ah! Ah!"
As soon as he moved, the three women hurriedly followed and arrived at the core of the void as well.
Inside that core, five spheres of light were rising and falling. They were the five supreme powers from the Campione Universe that symbolized the Ultimate Authorities.
"I thought it would be one at a time."
Luo Hao was somewhat surprised. She remembered that Rin had said that by absorbing just one, or at most two, he would be able to break through to a higher realm.
She had not expected that in only this short time, Rin would directly finish analyzing all five Ultimate Authorities.
"At first, I also thought it would be troublesome."
Rin explained, "But these five powers are ultimately of the same origin."
While Rin was analyzing "In the Name of the Father," the other four Ultimate Authorities, Solar Calendar, Ragnarök, Brahman and Atman as One, and Eight Million Heavens, were also merging into the Void Universe.
In the end, not only did those latter four powers not hinder Rin's analysis of In the Name of the Father.
On the contrary, they resonated with Rin's will and accelerated the process of fusing In the Name of the Father into the origin.
Thus, in just a few short days, Rin completed the analysis of the Ultimate Authorities.
These five powers were almost equivalent to drawing away half of the Campione Universe's origin.
The Campione Universe, in terms of scale, was not inferior in the slightest to an ordinary multiverse.
If one spoke only of the richness of the Campione Universe, that is, its diversity, then even compared with Little Garden, it was no less impressive.
After all, the mythological systems that exist in Little Garden also exist in the Campione Universe.
The two were evenly matched, with no real difference between them.
To put it bluntly, if the two-digit Buddha Shakyamuni from Little Garden ran to the Campione Universe, then you could see whether the world's restraints and suppression would turn Him into a Heretic God, and then have some Campione kill Him under the immune system of the world's will.
Do not think that is impossible.
One must know that even Velgrynd and Velzard, whom Rin had prepared earlier, did not dare to directly risk their true bodies.
Many people might not understand this.
The Campione Universe is not a single spacetime or a single world.
The story line involving Kusanagi Godou mentioned in the original work was merely something that happened in one parallel world.
But from the perspective of the entire Campione multiverse, the events that happened on that timeline, as well as the final boss Mārā, were still only so-so.
"What do we do next?"
"Do we need to do anything?"
"Could it be that some blind fool will show up and cause trouble?"
Luo Hao, Velzard, and Velgrynd all dropped their playful attitudes from earlier and became incomparably serious, while vigilantly watching the surroundings and guarding against enemies coming to interfere.
"I have already isolated outside observation to the greatest extent possible."
Violet was also here and had been standing guard the entire time. "But even then, it is better to be safe than sorry."
"Please take the form of your Dragon God bodies and guard the outside of the Void Universe."
"Before Rin breaks through, you must repel all prying eyes!"
Luo Hao closed her folding fan, her eyes fierce. "I will not let any fool who does not know life from death harm Rin!"
As for the Dragon God sisters, the two women exchanged a glance, and both saw the seriousness in each other's eyes.
The next moment, accompanied by three dragon roars.
The three women revealed their true forms and, as three Dragon Gods that reflected across the universe, stood guard around the Void Universe, protecting it firmly behind them.
"I'll leave it to you."
Rin needed to fuse with the new power, and during this process, he could not divide his attention.
Fortunately, there was still Violet.
When Rin's consciousness fell into slumber, most of Violet's computational power would accompany him and enter the five supreme powers together with him.
But Violet would leave behind a portion of her computational power.
To Rin, it was like sealing off his mind, leaving behind only instinct, remaining silently inside the Void Universe.
Doing this did not mean Rin would become a robot.
Rather, it was a safety measure he had left for himself.
If, during his advancement, the three women were to face mortal danger, then regardless of how far Rin's fusion with the supreme powers had progressed, he would stop the breakthrough without hesitation.
Compared to power, Rin cared more about the safety of the people around him.
"If you truly encounter danger, remember to wake me immediately."
Rin handed the key to waking himself up to the three women, allowing them to rouse him on their own initiative.
As for the computational power Violet left behind, it was only insurance.
It could not be helped.
Based on Rin's understanding of the three women.
They would absolutely be willing to risk their lives for his sake in order to ensure that his breakthrough proceeded smoothly.
It was precisely to prevent such a situation from happening that Rin was being so cautious.
As for failing the breakthrough or something like that.
That kind of thing simply did not matter.
If it failed, then it failed.
Even if it failed, the five supreme powers would not decrease, nor would Rin be injured or suffer any major problem.
At most, it would just mean swallowing all five supreme powers in one gulp, and afterward needing a longer time to slowly digest them.
The power was already here.
If Rin had not decided to preserve the purity of his power and use the Ultimate power of the base-axis world as his core ability.
He could have directly absorbed the Authorities and formed a complementary state between Authorities and Ultimate.
"All right, let's begin, Violet."
Thinking that, Rin slowly lowered his head.
His eyes became empty and lifeless, and his entire aura seemed to withdraw and sink to the bottom.
Most importantly, Violet's consciousness also sank into complete immersion.
Having lost Violet's control over the Void Universe on both the microscopic and macroscopic levels, for the first time, the Void Universe was exposed to the observation of other worlds.
And this was precisely the most dangerous situation Rin had spoken of!
