Chapter 47: Beyond Reality – The Birth of a True Supreme
"You are the void that erases all things. But I am something that was never meant to exist in the first place."

The Abyss Expands
The sky ripped apart.
The Abyssal Beyond continued to widen, stretching further than even the heavens themselves. Reality screamed as the first of its kind—an Abyssal Entity—stepped forward.
It was not a god. It was not a demon.
It was something that had existed before existence.
Its faceless form was wrapped in a darkness so deep that it consumed even light itself.
It had no aura, no presence—yet every immortal in the universe felt it.
Even those watching from distant realms shook in terror.
The Supreme Celestial Lord knelt, his face blank as he whispered:
"I have done what must be done. Now, it is no longer my fight."
The Abyssal Entity spoke, its voice void of emotion, void of sound, yet heard by all.
"THIS WORLD DOES NOT BELONG TO YOU."
It raised its four hands.
The heavens shook. The stars dimmed.
And the laws of existence ceased to function.
Gravity collapsed.
Time shattered.
Space folded inward.
Entire constellations vanished as the Abyss began to erase everything.
And then—
Xiao Tian moved.

The First Step Beyond Reality
He did not teleport.
He did not use any movement technique.
He simply decided that he would be somewhere else—
And he was.
The Abyssal Entity's faceless head tilted, as if it could not comprehend what had just happened.
Xiao Tian stood before it, unshaken, his golden flames burning brighter than before.
But these were no longer Celestial Flames.
They were something… else.
Something outside the Dao.
For the first time, the Abyss recoiled.
"YOU ARE A THREAT."
It raised a hand—
And Xiao Tian punched forward.

The First Clash
BOOOOOOOOOOM!
The entire fabric of reality detonated from the impact.
The Abyssal Entity, a being that had never known resistance, staggered.
It had erased entire dimensions, consumed entire realms, yet this being—this human—had struck it and it had felt pain.
Xiao Tian grinned.
His golden flames surged, but something changed.
They were no longer simply golden.
They shifted—flickering between gold, silver, black, and a color that had no name.
His very existence bent the rules of the universe.
The Supreme Celestial Lord, still kneeling, watched in silent horror.
"He is no longer bound by fate, nor Dao… nor even the concept of existence itself."
He turned his gaze upward, realization dawning upon him.
"What… have I awakened?"

The Final Awakening
The Abyssal Entity lunged, its hands stretching across space, trying to erase Xiao Tian from history itself.
But this time—
Xiao Tian did not dodge.
Instead, he opened his arms, allowing the abyssal force to crash into him.
The universe twisted.
Time froze.
The laws of the Dao shattered.
And then—
He absorbed it.
The Abyssal Entity jerked back, its form unstable.
For the first time in its existence—
It had lost a part of itself.
Xiao Tian exhaled, his eyes glowing with an indescribable light.
He lifted his hand—
And the Abyss obeyed.
The Supreme Celestial Lord's breath caught in his throat.
This was not power.
This was not cultivation.
This was something that should have never existed.
And yet—
Here he stood.
The first being to surpass the Dao.
The first to surpass even existence itself.
The true Supreme.

The Abyss Retreats
The Abyssal Entity froze, its formless body trembling.
For the first time—
It chose to flee.
The Abyss began to collapse inward, desperately trying to retreat into the void from which it had emerged.
But Xiao Tian simply raised a hand.
And reality refused to let it go.
His voice was calm, absolute.
"You cannot run. Not anymore."
And then, with a single step—
He reached into the Abyss itself.
And pulled.
The sky exploded as the Abyss screamed—
And the battle ended.
