Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: Sovereign Return

The simulation ended.

The Naruto world collapsed behind him, the last remnants of its energy consumed and refined into the core of his being. As the swirling light of the Dimensional Simulator faded, Ryan Carter—now Si Feng—stood once again on the familiar soil of Earth.

But he was no longer the same.

He was no longer human.

His cells pulsed with power, every strand of DNA rewritten by simulation feedback. The energy within him surged, deeper and denser than anything Earth had ever seen.

Simulation complete.Genetic evolution in progress...Perfect genetic level achieved: 10,081.Lifeform classification: Special Lifeform.

His body resonated with the voice of the simulator, even as reality itself seemed to ripple around him. The sky remained calm. The wind blew gently. But deep within, in the hidden folds of his internal world, storms of raw power roared.

He had created his own world core—a compressed reality space that existed within him alone. Only he could access it. Only he could survive within it. It was the perfect place to continue cultivating in absolute secrecy.

He opened his eyes.

A message shimmered before him.

You have exceeded the threshold of mortal evolution. The Will of the Universe has acknowledged your existence.Reward: Supreme Space-Time Secret Technique granted.

The technique downloaded directly into his soul. Knowledge—dense and ancient—flowed into him.

Devouring Time-Space Method

A technique born from cosmic instability. By absorbing fragments of distorted time and fractured space, one could forge pseudo-eternity within the soul and accelerate cultivation far beyond linear progress.

As the knowledge settled, his body surged.

Planetary level 123579

The transformation was absolute. He was now the most powerful being on Earth—and no one knew.

He made sure of that.

He cloaked his aura. Suppressed his genetic fluctuations. He wouldn't reveal his cards until the board was ready.

Then, without a word, he vanished into his internal world.

Within the world core, time obeyed him. Space bent to his will. He used the Devouring Time-Space Method to create temporal acceleration zones. For every day outside, weeks passed within.

He trained like a madman.

He fused the chakra constructs with his origin force.

He honed the power of the tailed beasts, merging their chakra cores into a single energy lattice embedded deep within his spiritual sea.

He refined his body, breaking through bottlenecks before they could form.

Outside, the world moved on.

People speculated. Some noticed his disappearance but dismissed it. Others, especially those in the upper ranks of the HR Alliance, began to feel unease. Rumors whispered of Si Feng's rise. But without proof, no action could be taken.

He was a ghost, even more dangerous than a known threat.

But he watched everything. His mental network extended silently across the globe. He monitored breakthroughs, beast tides, secret meetings, the movements of wargods and governments alike.

All while growing stronger.

He studied not just power, but structure. Politics. Cosmic paths. He simulated futures in his mind, predicting where the world would go and how he could control it.

And more importantly, how he could transcend it.

He was no longer bound to Earth. His eyes looked to the stars, to the wider cosmic sea, to the Domain Lords and Sector Lords that governed entire star systems. And beyond even them.

His simulator pinged.
