The world burned with color, chaos, and collapsing order.
The clash between Li Wei summoned Riders and the twin Ten Thousand Year soul beasts ruptured the very fabric of the forest. Shockwaves thundered across the earth like the fury of enraged gods, ancient trees bowed in agony, and the air itself shimmered and cracked under the strain. Spatial distortions rippled across the sky like shattered glass, distorting light and sound into kaleidoscopic madness. Illusionary mirages spilled forth from the Crystal-Eyed Wisdom Fox, weaving layers of deception that fractured the senses.
"Stay sharp! They're working in perfect sync!" Li Wei voice rang out, sharp as a blade cleaving through chaos.
He stood at the eye of the storm, sovereign and immovable. His Diend Complete armor blazed with silver and blue brilliance, a beacon of cold command amidst the tempest. Data flickered ceaselessly across his visor—Rider vitals, terrain shifts, threat vectors. His mind spun like a cyclone of steel and lightning, weaving intricate patterns of movement and timing. Every decision balanced on the edge of life and annihilation.
The Voidfang Tiger was nightmare incarnate. It flickered between realities like a phantom caught between breaths—solid muscle one instant, intangible the next. Its claws carved through the air, each swipe tearing open raw dimensional rifts that howled as they collapsed seconds later. Each step it took seemed to unravel the rules of reality.
The Crystal-Eyed Wisdom Fox, in contrast, moved with hypnotic elegance. It danced between illusions like starlight through water, its six crystalline tails leaving trails of refracted magic. Its eyes, vast and otherworldly, gleamed with ancient intelligence. Every flick of its tails birthed false worlds, traps, and beguiling phantoms. One glance into its gaze and doubt gnawed at your soul.
These weren't mere soul beasts. They were born of myth and blood—an apex predator duo whose harmony defied the natural order. Their rhythm was flawless. While one blinded, the other struck. When one faltered, the other shielded.

" Disrupt the Fox first! We need to break the illusion net!" Li Wei barked, voice like thunder.
The Riders moved as a unified orchestra of war.
Kamen Rider Skull marched forward with unshakable calm, his Skullmagnum firing with skull-cracking precision. Every shot shattered a phantom, peeling back layers of falsehood.
G4 unleashed a hurricane of smart missiles that weaved through bent space like serpents, locking onto the Fox shifting aura.
Kabuki and Glaive became a tempest of motion—Kabuki a fiery blur of theatrical strikes, Glaive a radiant wave of slashing gold.
At their flanks, the Shrek warriors surged forward.
Liu Erlong roared with the fury of a dragon, her soul power igniting around her like wildfire. She hurled herself at the Voidfang Tiger, fists ablaze, disrupting its phasing state with sheer heat and force. Her inner thoughts flared with protective fury. 'I will not let them fall. Not today. Not on my watch.'
Zhu Zhuqing blurred through shadows, her body a whisper of speed and precision, slipping through chaos to deliver pinpoint strikes at the Tiger exposed flank. 'I have to move faster… hit harder. I must protect him… even if it costs me.' Her eyes stayed locked on Li Wei, the storm in her chest outmatching the one on the field.
Xiao Wu danced between rifts, her braid like a whip of wind and fury, striking pressure points and vanishing before retaliation. 'Keep them guessing. Keep moving. If I stop, even for a second, someone might dies.'
Zhao Wuji stood like a mountain. When space cracked beneath him, he punched through the rift with raw might, collapsing dimensional traps before they could fully form. 'Hold the line. That's my job. Let the kids fly—I'll be their anchor.'
Behind them, Ning Rongrong knelt at the center of a glowing web. Her Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda spun faster than thought, ribbons of power streaming out to weave buffs into every ally.
"Agility boost! Strength boost! Treasure Earth Barrier! Go! Go! Go!" she cried through gritted teeth, her voice strained and bloody. Soul power flickered at the edge of burnout. Her hands trembled, and still she poured every ounce into her team. 'Don't stop. You can rest later. Not while they're fighting. Not while he's watching.'
But the battlefield turned against them.
The Fox illusions began merging with the Tiger dimensional ruptures. False ground collapsed beneath real feet. Phantoms struck from impossible angles. Kamen Rider Zero One that Li Wei to help in analyzing dashed forward—then vanished into a pocket of void, his scream swallowed by silence as it got deleted.
"They're layering traps," Li Wei whispered, sweat cold beneath his armor. "Illusion to confuse… spatial tear to finish. Brilliant… and deadly."
His jaw clenched. The visor's HUD warned of Rider fatigue. G4 systems were overheating. Skull ammo reserves dropping. Kabuki energy signature—waning.
'Not enough.'
Even eight Riders.
Even precise tactics.
Even buffs and sacrifice.
'It's not enough.'
Li Wei mind raced. Every timeline. Every possible move. Most ended in death—Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, Meng Yiran. 'I won't let them die. I won't be the one left behind again.'
He reached to his belt. One hand. One card.
[Final AttackRide: Wizard Infinity!]
Golden light erupted from the void. Kamen Rider Wizard Infinity descended like divine punishment, his Axcalibur dragging a gravitational wake that twisted even light. With one devastating swing, he cleaved through illusion after illusion and smashed the Wisdom Fox into tangible reality.
Liu Erlong seized the chance. She screamed with fire and fury, her fist crashing into the Fox ribs. Crystals shattered. For a moment, the illusion faltered.
But the Tiger retaliated.
It phased through space and materialized behind Erlong, claws raised for the kill.
"Zhuqing!" Li Wei shouted, voice raw.
She moved instantly.
Ten perfect clones leapt from her shadow—Phantom Civet Legion—each a predator honed to lethal precision. They assaulted the Tiger from all sides, trapping it in a cage of synchronized strikes.
The Tiger roared.
Space fractured.
The clones exploded bringing with it a shadow damage toward the attacker.
Zhu Zhuqing screamed. Blood erupted from her mouth. She staggered and collapsed.
"ZHU ZHUQING!!" Xiao Wu shrieked, her heart freezing in terror. She teleported mid-sprint, catching her as she fell. "Don't die. Please don't die, Zhuqing!."
Bones crunched. Her ribs were shattered. Her side was a blackened ruin.
"She's dying! She's dying!" Xiao Wu sobbed, eyes wild with desperation.
Li Wei froze.
His breath hitched.
'Not her. I can't lose her.' So many futures lost. Too many paths paved with corpses. 'Not this one.'
Only one option left.
[Final AttackRide: Diend!]
The battlefield pulsed with radiant power. All eight Riders assembled behind him, forming an astral legion. They became extensions of his will. Li Wei, the conductor of judgment.
"Rider All-Out Charge!"
They surged.
Orga and Caucasus slammed into the Voidfang Tiger, warping space with raw force.
Kabuki carved through illusions, leaving resonance anchors to collapse the Fox's field.
Skull Skullmagnum cracked shots that turned false light into darkness by manifesting Skull shape purple energy it shoot it.
Glaive blade carved crystal into powder after scanning rouzer card.
G4 painted the world in fire using a shoulder-mounted missile launcher, mounted over the right shoulder when in use name Gigant.
Arc stand infront of Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu that holding Zhu Zhuqing to protect them and to shielded the weak.
Then in that anger something happen.
'Hooh, interesting. Use it.' An unknown voice resound.
Ryuga seem to be connecting to him and him seem to be connecting to something else. He felt like he is being control.
Ryuga then seem to be acting as Li Wei mirror as it merged powers with him. On both of them appear Dragsaber in the right hand and Dragclaw on the left hand.
They then move toward the beast.
They moved like a wrath incarnate.
Twin streaks of blue and black as they cut and shooting black fireballs at the illusion—Li Wei and Ryuga—pierced the heart of both beasts in unison after they come close enough.
Li Wei can felt it, the power is different from before. It so strong that it eclipse his own complete form.
The world screamed—and shattered.

Silence.
Ash drifted.
The Crystal-Eyed Wisdom Fox—gone.
The Voidfang Tiger—collapsed, then vanished in a final blink.
Two glowing soul rings hovered… then flickered… and vanished.
Refused as the black hand appear and grab both of the black ring and it disappear beyond the portal that appear suddenly.
The Riders dissolved like dreams, their duty done. Light faded.
Li Wei dropped to one knee. His armor cracked. Energy drained. Mind shattered.
Zhao Wuji rushed to stabilize Zhu Zhuqing. Ning Rongrong collapsed beside her, sobbing and whispering buffs between gasps. Xiao Wu cradled Zhuqing broken form, her hands shaking.
Liu Erlong raised her head, eyes scanning the forest edge.
Li Wei didn't move.
He stared into the dark.
Something… had heard.
Diend Complete eruption.
The soul-space collapse.
The divine charge.
Too loud.
Too bright.
The forest stirred.
Something whispered back.
"The forest remembers power… and power always calls to greater monsters."
