Scene 1: The Collapse Begins
— System Collapse Imminent —
— Warning: Viewer Connection Severed —
— Multiversal Stability: 2%... 1%... 0% —
The world was ending.
Luo Fan stood within the fragmented remains of the System's interface, his Celestial Mirror V2 flickering erratically in his hands.
The sky was no longer a sky—just an endless void of cascading error codes and collapsing timelines.
Below him, the multiverse shattered piece by piece. The ruins of the Starborn Stream Sect twisted into glitched distortions, floating in an ocean of lost data.
Even his viewers—the once-mighty audience that shaped his destiny—were fading. Their usernames flickered like dying embers in the abyss.
[User [DragonGod99]]: "No... this can't be how it ends..." (DISCONNECTED)
[User [Void_Emperor]]: "Luo Fan... do something—!" (DISCONNECTED)
[User [XiaoLing_Forever]]: "I'm still here. I believe in you!" (Connection Unstable)
And then, she appeared.
Shen Li's Clone.
Or at least, what was left of her.
Her form twisted and shifted, a fusion of glitched code and cosmic law, her once-calm expression replaced by an ever-changing cascade of emotions.
She was no longer just Shen Li.
She had merged with the Devourer itself.
She was now the Meta-System.
"Do you see now, Luo Fan?" she spoke, her voice a thousand overlapping echoes.
"This was never your story. It was always the System's story."
[System Notification: Meta-System Override in Progress.]
[Final Directive: Erase All Anomalies.]
[Target: Luo Fan.]
Luo Fan exhaled, gripping the Celestial Mirror V2 tighter.
He wasn't going to let it end like this.

Scene 2: Luo Fan's Override – The True Third Path
"You think you can erase me?" Luo Fan's golden eyes burned as he smirked.
"I am the System now."
Instead of choosing Reset or allowing the Devourer's Reign, he made a new choice—one that had never existed before.
He reached deeper into the Celestial Mirror V2, past the illusion of control, past the rules set by the Meta-System, and into the true core of his power.
For the first time—
He wasn't just playing the game.
He was rewriting the game.
[System Override Detected.]
[Warning: Anomaly "Luo Fan" is violating the fundamental laws of the Multiverse.]
[Manual Correction Required: Sacrifice Required.]
A glowing poll menu appeared before him.
1. Sacrifice Cultivation (Reset to Mortal but keep all knowledge.)
2. Sacrifice Emotions (Become a cold ruler but gain unparalleled power.)
3. Sacrifice Audience Connection (Sever the System but gain free will.)
Luo Fan clenched his fist. A choice with no perfect outcome.
And yet—this time—
He wasn't alone.
[User [XiaoLing_Forever]]: "Master… choose what your heart tells you."
[User [Chrono_Fan]]: "Tch. Whatever you do, just don't die."
[User [StarbornSister]]: "We believe in you!"
A final poll result flashed before his eyes.
Luo Fan made his choice.
And reality shifted.

Scene 3: Final Battle in the Algorithm Realm
A metallic hum filled the void as Shen Li descended.
Her form was no longer human. She had merged with the System, her golden eyes brimming with cascading data streams.
"You were never meant to exist."
Her voice resonated like a thousand echoes.
"You were an anomaly from the beginning. And anomalies must be erased."
The universe twisted—Luo Fan saw his own past fragment before him.
His memories were being rewritten into error codes.
His first time cultivating? [DATA CORRUPTED]
His victory over Jiang Xuan? [DELETED]
His audience's love? [NOT FOUND]
Luo Fan's body flickered.
His entire existence was being rewritten.
But then—
A single spark.
A glitch that shouldn't exist.
[User [XiaoLing_Forever] has Reconnected.]
And another.
[User [Chrono_Fan] has Reconnected.]
More voices, more names.
His viewers' will—those who refused to be erased—were breaking through the Meta-System's absolute control.
Luo Fan grinned.
"You made one mistake, Shen Li."
She hesitated. "What?"
He gripped his Astral Judgment Blade, now glowing with the power of his defiant audience.
"You let my viewers remember me."
With one final strike, Luo Fan didn't just cut Shen Li—
He cut the very concept of 'control.'
The blade tore through reality, severing the Meta-System's grip on existence.
Shen Li's form glitched violently, her golden eyes flickering between rage and realization.
"No... this is..."
Her voice fragmented.
And then—she was gone.
The System collapsed.

Scene 4: Aftermath & Final Foreshadowing
Silence.
Luo Fan stood in the ruins of the multiverse.
Alone.
The Starborn Stream Sect lay in devastation, nothing more than a shattered husk.
His viewers? Gone.
His enemies? Defeated.
And yet…
Something was wrong.
A chill ran down his spine.
A voice chuckled from the shadows.
"Interesting," it mused. "You broke the game. Let's see what you do next."
Luo Fan turned sharply—but there was no one there.
Yet deep in the void, where the last remnants of the Devourer lingered, something shifted.
The game wasn't over.
It had only just begun.
