Chapter 25: Confined to Cultivation, Rebirth from the Ashes!
"Is this the end?" he asked himself, a surge of resentment and anger rising within him. He had already embarked on the journey to conquer the heavens, yet here he was being suppressed to such a wretched state!
Isaac gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and calmed himself. He knew he couldn't give up easily in this desperate situation. Although Beerus's binding power was almost indestructible, he still didn't give up his last hope.
"System... are you still there?" Isaac murmured to himself, feeling a deep loneliness wash over him. He had used the system's power to defeat powerful enemies many times, but now the system was unresponsive, seemingly having severed all connection with Beerus's power.
Just as Isaac felt a surge of intense despair, a faint glimmer of light quietly appeared in his mind. His consciousness was drawn to it, as if he had entered another strange space. The scene before him was not real, but an illusory spiritual realm. There lay an endless starry sky, the brilliant starlight outlining strange patterns, as if telling of some ancient power.
Isaac was stunned, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
"The Chosen One..." The distant voice echoed in the starry sky, as if it had traveled through billions of years and came from the depths of the distant future, carrying endless mystery and majesty.
"Who is it?" Isaac asked tentatively, a premonition creeping into his heart. The voice was deep and resonant, as if from some mysterious being deep within the universe.
The voice did not answer directly, but continued: "You are no longer a mortal, nor are you bound by the rules of mortals. Chosen One, you are the bearer of destiny for all realms, the executor of judgment for all heavens... and destiny is your unshakable origin."
A flicker of shock crossed Isaac's eyes, but a surge of fighting spirit and confidence welled up within him. Whatever the voice might be, he knew he bore a far more sacred mission and could not give up.
"I will not fall!" he said coldly, his eyes flashing with fierce fighting spirit.
As if in response to his resolve, the light in the starry sky gradually coalesced into a golden longsword. This longsword exuded a sacred and magnificent aura, with mysterious runes wrapped around its blade, as if it were formed from the power of the stars.
"This... the true form of the Blade of Destiny?" Isaac stared in astonishment at the long blade before him, a surge of emotion coursing through him. He had used the Blade of Destiny before, but had never seen it in such a realistic form. This long blade seemed to contain boundless power, enough to shatter all constraints!
No longer afraid, Isaac reached out and grasped the Blade of Destiny. In an instant, the power of the starry sky surged into his body like a tidal wave, breaking through his sealed confinement and pouring directly into the depths of his soul. His consciousness instantly returned to clarity, and the power was once again under his control.
Isaac suddenly opened his eyes, which were filled with intense light. The purple chains that bound him gradually loosened under the activation of the power of destiny, and could no longer restrain him.
He sneered, brandishing the Blade of Destiny, severing the chains completely! He stood up again, his confidence restored. At this moment, he seemed to have become once again the confident and invincible Chosen One.
“Berus! Do you think you can bind me with a chain?” Isaac roared, staring coldly at the sky.
Not far away, Beerus noticed Isaac's change, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He had never imagined that this imprisoned fellow could break free from the seal of the God of Destruction's power. Whis stood beside Beerus, sighing softly, his eyes filled with solemnity and doubt.
“Isaac, your power has actually broken through the limits,” Weiss said, his eyes showing an unusual seriousness.
Isaac ignored Whis's assessment, instead pointing a finger at Beerus, his eyes filled with defiance and resolve. "Beerus, since you cannot tolerate my existence, then I will use the Blade of Destiny to utterly destroy your destructive power!"
Before he finished speaking, Isaac's Blade of Destiny erupted with golden light once more, a powerful force surging within him, transforming him into an invincible war god. Every ounce of power surged wildly within him, converging into a powerful shockwave that instantly shattered the surrounding space!
Beerus snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with ruthless killing intent. He wielded the power of the God of Destruction in his hand, meeting Isaac head-on without flinching. The two destructive forces collided again in mid-air, the resulting explosion tearing through space and reducing the surroundings to nothingness.
Goku and Vegeta watched nervously from a distance, their eyes filled with shock. Goku exclaimed, "This power... it's beyond our imagination! Isaac's strength is actually on par with Beerus!"
Vegeta snorted coldly and said in a deep voice, "He is indeed powerful, but we cannot give up so easily!"
The moment the two spoke, the battle between Isaac and Beerus intensified. They exchanged blows, each collision as powerful as thunder, dimming even the distant stars. Isaac's Destiny power had reached its limit, and he was now evenly matched with Beerus's destructive power.
The battle had reached its climax, with Isaac concentrating almost all of his Destiny power into this single attack. He knew that if he couldn't secure a decisive victory, his strength might be completely depleted. Gritting his teeth, he raised the Blade of Destiny high and roared, "Beelzebub! You will utterly fail at my hands!"
Beerus's gaze turned cold, and he simultaneously gathered the power of the God of Destruction in both hands, his eyes filled with killing intent. He no longer underestimated his opponent, unleashing his full power with determination to utterly defeat Isaac.
"boom--"
With the final collision between the Blade of Destiny and the power of the God of Destruction, the surrounding space instantly collapsed, as if the laws of the world were torn apart, and a burst of light formed an energy pillar that pierced through the heavens and the earth.
However, the energy fluctuations gradually subsided, and Isaac stood there, panting heavily, the Blade of Destiny still gleaming in his hand. Beerus watched him coldly, his surprise barely concealed despite not being defeated.
Whis nodded slightly and smiled, "Lord Beerus, perhaps we should admit that this chosen one is indeed extraordinary."
Beerus's killing intent gradually subsided, and he said in a low voice, "Isaac, I acknowledge your power today. However, if there is a next time, I will never tolerate your existence."
Isaac sneered and said firmly, "Berus, I will be stronger, and the heavens will ultimately be under my control!"
Although this earth-shattering duel had come to an end, Beerus's threat still echoed in Isaac's ears. He coldly stared at this God of Destruction of the universe, yet an uncontrollable excitement welled up within him. Beerus was powerful, but Isaac clearly knew—he was not without a chance of victory. If it weren't for the fact that the power of the God of Destruction complemented the laws of the universe, Isaac firmly believed that, relying on the power of destiny, he would sooner or later be able to shake everything in this world.
