Arad's unruly savior
Chapter 4022 The Illusion of Tomorrow
Rigel the Tomorrow, a member of the original time-space rulers, possesses a small portion of the power over time and is a powerful primordial god.
Sirocco's wave of his hand unleashed a supernova, revealing the ruler of spacetime. The two gods confronted each other in the dark starry sky, their auras clashing, their light illuminating the entire star field. They had already exchanged a blow, and although they did not continue to fight, the tension was palpable, and the atmosphere could break down at any moment.
Countless fragments of spacetime surround Tomorrow's Riggel, varying in size, each unfolding its own changes and stories. Rizz and the others were astonished; each fragment seemed to be a piece of past history, and the location it appeared in was none other than the Demon Realm.
Where the Lord of Time and Space resides, the past, present, and future will all manifest.
"That is...?" Queen Sulfana of the Goruda race has now reached the Transcendent realm. She is charming, alluring, and stunning. She is currently staring intently at one of the spacetime fragments.
The fragments reveal glimpses of the past... The Demon Realm is like a lonely island, traversing the dark and cold starry sky... One day, the Demon Realm slowly approaches an unknown, yellowish planet.
The eight regions roared and pierced the atmosphere, tearing through the white air currents along the way, falling like meteorites, and finally presenting a strange scene of the demon realm hanging upside down in the sky. It lingered there briefly, alarming the native inhabitants of the entire planet.
Some time later, a group of winged humanoid races took to the skies. They wielded metal weapons, wore metal armor, and could use magic. They were fast and agile, and their racial superiority was extraordinary. Some winged humanoid races rode a mysterious, wingless creature that could fly and resembled a giant python. Led by several powerful individuals, they invaded all sides of the Demon Realm.
In an instant, war and dust erupted on several sides of the Demon Realm, and the invaders brought great trouble to the Demon Realm... until a seemingly not very tall but godlike figure coldly made a move, crushing most of the invaders with overwhelming force. Even the strongest among the invaders was defeated by him and barely survived three rounds.
Moreover, those three rounds were actually a figure of speech. It was the powerful figure with godlike features who calmly and unhurriedly observed the opponent's fighting skills with his arms crossed, allowing the opponent to attack. Finally, in the fourth round, he defeated the strongest member of the invading race with a single blow.
The demon realm has also left this planet.
Astrologer Rossello looked thoughtfully at Sulfana, who had also discovered the fragment of time. The invading race depicted in the fragment was remarkably similar to the Goruda race... humanoid, with wings on their backs, riding creatures resembling giant serpents, namely the Bagul.
The difference lies in the fact that the Goruda race in the fragments of time are more human-like, with legs like human feet, and their bodies are clad in sophisticated armor. When they move, their armies blot out the sky and move in perfect order.
Even the current Goruda race, including the former queen-level high-evolutionary form Sulfana, has legs resembling bird claws.
As for that powerful demon from the demon realm with the appearance of a god, everyone present recognized him immediately... He was not tall but extremely imposing, and his attacks were always deadly. He was always calm and composed, with a divine halo hanging in the air on his back. He had an invincible aura and wore a handsome fur-collared coat. He was none other than the First Apostle, Cain!
Now things are clear: the Goruda race is not a native race of the Demon Realm, but a race that invaded the Demon Realm from a certain planet. After being defeated by Kahn, their power in the Demon Realm was greatly reduced, and they barely survived by occupying a small area.
At the same time, due to the special environment of the Demon Realm, the bodies of the Goruda race gradually mutated, with human characteristics decreasing and bird characteristics increasing... Such changes cannot be called degeneration. The Goruda race's legs and bird claws can easily grab heavy objects, and adults can easily disembowel their prey. The claws of some evolved forms can even cut through steel.
Therefore, the change in the appearance of the Goruda race from near-human to bird cannot be called a degeneration, but rather a mutation. The human body is not perfect in every aspect.
"So, if we look at the scene from that fragment of time, our Goruda might have a home planet somewhere in the universe?" Sulfana raised an eyebrow slightly, thinking that her family group had such a glorious history.
She had long known from Ye Lin that the Goruda race was one of the races that invaded the eight directions of the Demon Realm, but she had always regarded it as a small place or a small force on a certain planet. After all, if their ancestors were really capable, they should have become one of the Nine Apostles. If they had left some foundation, they wouldn't have ended up making a living in a godforsaken place like the Gale Zone.
Rossello joked, "When you evolved, you didn't have any memories of your ancestors' legacy."
It is said that races whose ancestors were once "prosperous" possess an incredible power within their bloodline.
Take, for example, the Aura Master Niwu. Her ancestors were Terrans from the mythical era, and her bloodline is imbued with the power of the goddess of light and justice, Beyana. Once she rose to prominence, her body radiated a dazzling golden light.
“No.” Sulfana shook her head; there were no abnormalities during her breakthrough.
She strongly doubted that her ancestors had ever produced a transcendent being; the strongest being depicted in the fragments of time seemed to be at most at the origin level.
Therefore, she is now the strongest of the Goruda race, she is the source of the bloodline, and according to Sophie, she is the original Goruda.
Of course, the ancestors of the dragon race were indeed very powerful, and there were primordial dragons among them.
The eight aspects of the Demon Realm's past they saw included not only the Goruda race, but also scenes of the Demon Realm near the power planet Greenbrad, a world dominated by giants. The giants roared, and with each step they took, the earth shook and the mountains trembled as they invaded the Demon Realm.
I also saw scenes of the Demon Realm approaching worlds like Tayberrs, Hebron, and Zhuyaropa...
As Ragnarok descended upon the eight directions of the Demon Realm, His laws of time and space automatically manifested past scenes of the Demon Realm, unfolding a vivid and grand history book before everyone's eyes, bringing to life the stories of the Demon Realm one by one.
He governs tomorrow's time and space, but that doesn't mean Rigel can't appear in the past.
A dangerous smile curved at the corner of Sirocco's lips. He said with great interest and eagerness, "I want to turn you into a tool. As long as the tool is brought close to something I want to know, it will automatically reveal that thing's past. It's very interesting."
Rigel of Tomorrow remained indifferent and silent, surrounded by the laws of the divine realm, his power overwhelming. A cosmic hurricane suddenly swept up the nearby spacetime, sweeping away the fragments of the past and making them disappear. In turn, new fragments of spacetime emerged from the void, and he began to use his most proficient time-related powers.
Rigel represents tomorrow, or the future.
A fragment of spacetime appeared, quickly attracting everyone's attention.
They witnessed the connection between the eight sides of the Demon Realm being torn apart, the octahedron being unfolded by an invisible force, many mountains collapsing, the sky trembling, turning into a flat plane, and then embedding itself back into the original site of ancient Terra, returning to the Terra that had reunited from the past. Countless blinding beams of light flew from the depths of the universe, piercing the ancient, deathly darkness, illuminating the cosmos, all landing on the planet Terra, the light reaching to the heavens and the earth. At this moment, Terra seemed to be the center of the primordial universe, bearing the radiance of all directions, the absolute center of time and space, past, present, and future. The entire planet radiated a sacred light, as if it were ascending to heaven as a whole.
Ritz opened his Eye of Knowledge and said calmly, "A harbinger of the future? You want to tell us that if the Demon Realm returns to Terra, it will receive the creation of the universe?"
"Heh, boring..." The Moon Sumira scoffed. She could conjure up such strange scenes at will; there was nothing magical about them. They might work for fooling children.
A transcendent being who had descended spoke coldly: "The laws of the rulers of time and space illuminate this. This is the true future, the path that follows the trajectory of destiny. Those who defy the future shall die."
Another fragment of spacetime has materialized... The eight sides of the Demon Realm were shattered in the great battle. The eight sides were torn apart and then exploded. Countless fragments carried countless wails, and countless lives withered tragically.
Even more terrifying was that the transcendents were also perishing. They saw the magic master Niwu break the ancient spear, cough up blood and collapse to the ground; they saw Monica's magical creations all shattered and she herself disappeared in the explosion; they saw a large number of summoned beast corpses fall beside the elf wielder Katie, and she herself fell into a pool of blood...
I also saw a black and red invisible flower wither and die, its petals turning to ashes, devoid of any life.
The powerful figures of the Demon Realm were immediately displeased. They continued to stare intently at the spacetime fragment beside Tomorrow's Rigel, their eyes fixed on it. For a moment, a chill ran down their spines, and fear rose in their hearts. Was that the future? Was it an inevitable glimpse into it?
Just as they were captivated, a ripple of time silently spread over, radiating a strange, tranquil light. It then split into more threads, wrapping around the powerful beings of the demon realm and climbing towards their heads, the places where their souls reside.
The leaders of the major forces in the demon realm seemed completely oblivious, still intently watching the fragments of tomorrow's time. However, their faces showed expressions of struggle, and their bodies trembled slightly, as if they were being suppressed and unable to make any move to resist.
Herder's tear-filled mask suddenly turned into a cloud of white mist, but she seemed unaffected.
Sirocco frowned deeply, his eyes sometimes clear as if he wanted to say something, then turning into fear and panic, sinking into a daze, then clearing again, finally seizing a fleeting opportunity, just about to speak...
"wake up!"
From the darkness of the deep universe came a profound voice, followed by the sudden opening of many pairs of deep blue eyes, so deep they seemed to connect to a bottomless abyss. Then, they shone brightly, illuminating the darkness and unleashing a sharp mental storm that roared across the sky. The material space itself groaned under the weight of this storm, crumbling inch by inch.
The eyes of the powerful demons quickly regained their clarity, and they immediately attacked to destroy the time ripples that were approaching them. Their emotions were filled with astonishment and anger. Tomorrow's Rigel had used some special means and secret techniques to deceive everyone, including Sirocco. That moment was really dangerous; they had actually been brought close by the opponent's power.
Even if they surpass the indestructible and the divine realm is immortal, if the opponent seizes a moment to launch a full-scale attack, they can directly and severely injure them, making them pay the price. Including Terra, which they are protecting, it will probably be shattered as the prophesied scene suggests.
In the depths of darkness, several eerie blue eyes slowly went out, only to light up again a few seconds later. Each blink was like a star silently dying and being rekindled. In the reflection of the eerie blue light, they saw eight enormous tentacles covered in sharp thorns and twisted like vines, silently sliding in the darkness.
“Apostle Lotus.” The Eternal Holy Spirit Rize used the Source of Knowledge to see through the appearance of the other party’s true form hidden deep in the void: an eight-clawed behemoth swimming in the dark void, its eyes connected to the abyss of the spiritual world, the eighth apostle of the demon realm, Lotus.
This powerful aura indicated that Lotus had already reached the Transcendent realm, and had thoroughly explored the Primordial Darkness within her. Her attainments in the spiritual realm also put immense pressure on them.
It was that thing that unleashed the mental storm that destroyed the future illusion constructed by Tomorrow's Ragnarok.
Lotus rapidly approached from the extremely distant void. It had returned from the water planet Solaris, broken through to the Transcendent realm, and was quickly closing in on the Demon Realm. It had previously shared Night Forest's vision and was fully aware of everything that was happening now.
"The Illusion of Tomorrow, interesting. You want to turn a fictitious future into reality? Is this your power?" Sirocco chuckled a few times, his face extremely cold, and his eyes were already filled with murderous intent.
As expected of a veteran Primordial God, she has some skills; she had briefly succumbed and struggled back to her senses.
The main problem was that she was a bit careless. She treated the fragments of the past that materialized near Tomorrow's Rigel as a passive ability, reading them like a history book and finding it interesting.
When the light near Rigel transformed into fragments of the future, the first foreshadowed future once again lowered everyone's guard. Then, as everyone's attention focused on the second fragment, the other party quietly constructed a dangerous illusion of tomorrow.
If one remains trapped in the fragments of tomorrow, then the future depicted within those fragments will become the real future, and one will transform from the tangible to the intangible, truly becoming a part of the unfolding of those fragments.
"You deserve to die." Sirocco coldly locked onto Tomorrow's Rigel, and an invisible flower phantom unfolded behind him, its petals and leaves enormous, involving the power of the realm of fate.
Before the battle, she turned to Hilder and asked with extreme displeasure, "You bitch, were you unaffected just now?"
She keenly observed that while the leaders of the major powers were all affected by Tomorrow's Illusion of Tomorrow's Glory, only that bitch Hilder remained calm and composed, always appearing undisturbed and indifferent to everything, as if nothing in the world could shake her emotions.
Sirocco was genuinely surprised and deeply puzzled. She herself had been unintentionally affected, and the other party was, after all, a veteran Primordial God with unfathomable strength and a realm that far surpassed Hilder's. How could she have remained unharmed?
If Lotus hadn't shouted in the mental realm, Hilder would have been the key to breaking through the illusion of tomorrow.
It's true... no matter how much time has passed, Hilder's appearance is still infuriating and repulsive.
“Because you’re stupid,” Hilder said, referring to Sirocco as stupid. Her voice was neither cold nor sarcastic, as if she were stating something perfectly ordinary.
"You wretch, I'm fighting for the Demon Realm, you'd better show me some respect!" Sirocco roared, his anger rising, wanting to beat Hilder up first. (End of Chapter)
