Chapter 496: [Determine Destiny]: Flaws and Countermeasures

Su Yu quickly thought about the flaws of the powerful ability "Determine Destiny".

In fact, Su Yu had already known the flaws of fate.

That is, the so-called "inevitable destiny" is not a complete timeline.

It is just a "point" on the timeline.

[Destiny] is bound to happen, but what happens before and after it happens is no longer important.

Therefore, as long as you are aware of the existence of fate, you can find ways to avoid it, or even make use of it.

For example, the first destiny that Su Yu encountered was the prophecy given by the little girl who was a prophet in the materialized space:

Everyone will die except Su Yu.

In that prophetic scene, the mechanical city was corrupted and corpses were everywhere. Only Su Yu stood alone on the bloody land, roaring at the powerful enemy in the sky.

Later, this fate did come true, and the Mechanical City was completely destroyed, so everyone died, leaving only Su Yu.

However, this fate was created by Su Yu himself.

Even all the people in the Mechanical City were killed by Su Yu on his own initiative.

Su Yu also used this fate and the strong emotional impact when everyone died to allow him to maintain his humanity and deal with the spiritual erosion of the evil god of pain.

In the end, Su Yu won the battle and transformed the Evil God of Pain into an Evil God Soldier Mecha.

After winning the battle, Su Yu used the power of time to resurrect everyone in the Mechanical City.

Fate only says that everyone will die, but it does not stipulate that there can be no resurrection after death.

In this way, destiny is indeed fulfilled, but the person does not die.

This is the flaw of the ability [Determine Fate]! It can be avoided.

However, the fate predicted by the little girl Zhou Qing was very simple, with only one picture and one fate node.

So it is very easy to circumvent.

Of course, this is easy to avoid, especially for Su Yu. If it were someone else, without the power of time, those people would be truly dead if they died.

But for Su Yu, this single node of fate is indeed easy to avoid.

However, if it is a [complex] fate, it will be a bit difficult.

The so-called [complex] destiny is a form of destiny guessed by Su Yu.

It is composed of multiple destiny nodes that are bound to occur, connected in series.

For example, after the Mechanical City was completely destroyed, another fate node followed: Su Yu was suppressed and sealed and lost his power.

Su Yu lost his power, so naturally he couldn't resurrect the dead.

When the [present] time node moves forward a sufficient distance, those people will really be dead.

Even if Su Yu regained his power, he could not be resurrected because he could not afford the price.

This is what is called a complex destiny.

Faced with this complex fate, it is much more difficult to avoid it.

Of course, it is not completely unavoidable.

For example, in Destiny, Su Yu lost his power, how did he lose it? If it was like the previous "dream setting", then Su Yu could prepare the power of the spiritual realm in advance.

Also, has Su Yu’s mechanical creation, the Evil God Soldier Mecha, lost its power?

Anyway, as long as you are willing to think of a way, you can always solve it.

But if this fate is followed by a third, fourth, fifth... series of fate nodes, the difficulty of avoiding them will increase exponentially.

Another important difficulty is that you need to know your fate first before you can find a way to avoid it.

If you don't know at all, you can only wait for death.

Fortunately, after Su Yu's space-time mechanic reached the maximum level, he unlocked the core specialization [Destiny Prediction], which made him a true prophet.

In this way, when the person behind the scenes activates [Determine Fate], Su Yu will be able to see it in advance.

Thinking of this, Su Yu immediately launched the destiny prophecy.

He wanted to see what fate he would have in the future! Would there be a fate against him, Su Yu?

However, it was the same as what was seen the last time the Destiny Prophecy was activated.

What Su Yu saw was: Fifteen years later, Song Ming led the resistance army to the top floor of the dark city and faced the "Supreme Ruler Su Yu".

There is only this picture of destiny, nothing else.

The person behind the scenes has not yet activated the ability of [Determine Fate] to target Su Yu.

This made Su Yu feel a little relieved. It seemed that the person behind the scenes didn't care about him too much.

The person behind the scenes controls everything with fate and has everything under control, so he really doesn't need to care too much about Su Yu.

Even when Su Yu went to the Dream Star Core and gained control of the star core, the person behind the scenes did not jump out to stop him.

However, if Su Yu wants to interfere with the plan behind the scenes next, he may face an attack at the fate level.

Maybe the fate that will come out directly is: "Su Yu is bound to die and cannot be resurrected."

Then Su Yu is finished.

Su Yu couldn't be sure to what extent the ability of "Determining Destiny" that existed behind the scenes could reach.
Is he really omnipotent? If Su Yu provokes him, won't he die?
And now it’s not Su Yu who is provoking the person behind the scenes, but the person behind the scenes who is targeting Su Yu.

The evil god of pain is already in the fate he has woven, so what about Su Yu?
Fifteen years later, when the fate of the rebellion is fulfilled, how will the person behind the scenes arrange Su Yu's original body?

I don't think anything good will happen.

"I guess I can't really be omnipotent."

Su Yu thought for a moment and concluded that the existence behind the scenes that determines fate must have its limits.

It is impossible to have the destiny you want.

For example, deciding a fate: the universe will be completely destroyed in the next second.

Could it be that the universe is really destroyed? It's not even possible to think about it.

Since there is a limit, there should also be consumption and cost.

In this regard, Su Yu had no specific information and did not know to what extent the other party could achieve.

But at least, the existence of the Evil God of Pain proves that the other party can use fate to create a fifth-level evil god. As to whether this is the upper limit, it is hard to say.

Maybe fate really is such that Su Yu will die completely in a billionth of a second and cannot be resurrected.

He wasn't even given the chance to find a way to avoid it in advance.

That's it.

This kind of fate-determining attack is truly terrifying.

Fortunately, facing such a terrible and powerful enemy, Su Yu was not completely helpless.

Because, the person who can decide fate is not just the mysterious person behind the scenes, there is another one.

That is……

"Glorious Emperor!"

That's right, the Emperor Guangyao must have the ability to decide fate! The Emperor Guangyao himself was betrayed, which affected all of humanity, causing Zhang Chenfeng, Su Yu, and other leaders of human civilization to be betrayed as long as they met certain requirements.

This is obviously also a way of [determining fate]!
However, due to Emperor Guangyao's poor condition, this ability seemed to be out of control.

However, Su Yu believed that with Emperor Guangyao's strength, he would not completely lose control and would definitely still have a certain degree of self-control.

Even Emperor Guangyao has used his ability to decide fate to help Su Yu!
The evidence is...

Su Yu suddenly looked at Zhao Mengsheng next to him again.

The reason why Su Yu was able to suddenly realize and appreciate the terrifying and powerful enemy lurking in the dark was because Zhao Mengsheng appeared next to him.

Why didn't Zhao Mengsheng sit anywhere else but sat next to Su Yu? He even asked him a question, which attracted Su Yu's attention.

All this made Su Yu feel like it was destiny!

Su Yu believed that this was probably Emperor Guangyao controlling fate and using Zhao Mengsheng to remind him.

However, when Su Yu used his ability to predict fate on Zhao Mengsheng, he was unable to see any picture of fate.

"Perhaps it is because this kind of fate is too weak..."

Su Yu thought to himself.

Compared to powerful destinies such as the complete destruction of the Mechanical City and the rebellion of hundreds of millions of people, Zhao Mengsheng sat next to Su Yu and asked a question. This kind of trivial matter was really too insignificant.

Compared to the [inevitable fate], the fact that Zhao Mengsheng sat next to Su Yu was more like the normal development of the time and space trajectory, a "normal" fate, so it could not attract the attention of the [fate prediction] ability.

The so-called "normal fate" refers to the one with the highest probability among the infinite possibilities in the future, so basically unless there are any accidents, things will develop in this way.

For example, Su Yu entered the quantized state through the subspace analyzer and saw the future "destiny".

In that future, Su Yu was killed by the evil spirit.

But after hard work, Su Yu emerged from the brink of death and successfully reversed the future, and finally killed the enemy.

Obviously, the future that Su Yu saw in the quantized state at that time was not the so-called "inevitable destiny."

But it can be reversed and changed.

Although this normal fate was very difficult for Su Yu at the time to reverse, it was not inevitable.

And the fact that Zhao Mengsheng sat next to Su Yu seemed to be disguised as this "normal fate".

This should be to avoid observation from the person behind the scenes.

The person behind the scenes can decide fate and can naturally observe.

If there were no such disguise, the sudden emergence of a new [inevitable fate] would definitely attract the attention of the person behind the scenes.

Now, it's much more hidden.

Thinking of this, Su Yu secretly prayed to Emperor Guangyao in his heart.

The light before his eyes flashed and disappeared, and it seemed that Su Yu was temporarily unable to withstand the power of the Glorious Emperor.

However, in the fleeting flash of light just now, Su Yu received some information conveyed to him by the Emperor of Glorious Glory.

"destiny!"

Emperor Guangyao was as frugal with words as ever, but fortunately these two words were enough clues for Su Yu to confirm that his previous guesses were correct.

"It looks like this is a battle between the two big guys, the Emperor of Glory and the one behind the scenes."

"Luckily, I have a big boss protecting me, otherwise, I would have died without knowing how I died..."

Su Yu secretly rejoiced.

However, even with the help of Emperor Guangyao, it does not mean that Su Yu can sit back and relax.

The condition of the Glorious Emperor was too bad, and the hints he gave were too obscure. Someone with a weak brain wouldn't be able to find them at all.

"This Zhao Mengsheng may have some information about his destiny left by the Emperor Guangyao. We should observe him carefully."

Su Yu thought very quickly. After he figured it all out, less than a second passed before he told Zhao Mengsheng his name.

This was because it involved the terrifying existence behind the scenes, so Su Yu was cautious and a little "slow" when thinking.

At this moment, Zhao Mengsheng's expression changed from surprise to admiration.

After a while, Zhao Mengsheng reacted and said, "Brother, you picked a good name!"

Su Yu chuckled and said, "Haha, it's just a name, what's the big deal? Others are afraid of the tyrant, but I am not afraid of him!"

Zhao Mengsheng immediately admired Su Yu even more and pulled Su Yu aside to talk to him.

He had been training in Song Ming's secret base before, and had just been released. Everything he saw was new to him, his thoughts were relatively simple, and he had a lot to say at this moment.

Su Yu just dealt with him casually.

With Su Yu's knowledge and wisdom, he casually gave Zhao Mengsheng some pointers on psychic power and mechanical knowledge, and soon the young man Zhao Mengsheng admired him so much that he almost wanted to ask Su Yu to become his sworn brother.

As Su Yu spoke, he observed Zhao Mengsheng, wanting to see what kind of fate he would have.

As he observed, Su Yu actually found some clues.

There seems to be a strange power in Zhao Mengsheng.

Su Yu felt this power and had a feeling that... [Determines Destiny]!
That’s right, Su Yu felt that by utilizing the power of Zhao Mengsheng, he could activate the incredible ability of [Determine Destiny].

Su Yu was immediately overjoyed. It seemed that this was the help given to him by Emperor Guangyao.

The Guangyao Emperor actually directly infused the power of [Determining Destiny] into Zhao Mengsheng!

However, looking at Zhao Mengsheng's appearance, it was obvious that he had no ability to utilize this power. He knew nothing at all.

This power was obviously prepared for Su Yu.

Unfortunately, when Su Yu tried to extract power from Zhao Mengsheng, he failed.

That power was hard to fathom, and Su Yu couldn't grasp or touch it at all.

If Su Yu was not a time mechanic with the specialized ability of [Prediction of Destiny], he wouldn't even be able to sense this power.

It is probably because of Zhao Mengsheng's special physique that he can store this kind of power.

Su Yu was studying when, at this moment, on the tall and majestic podium in the center of the gathering space, "Grand Commander Song Ming" appeared.

Song Ming was wearing a neat mechanical military uniform at this time, looking very mighty and domineering.

Behind him stood Feng Ying, Yang Lie and other acquaintances of Su Yu. At this time, these people had already become Song Ming's subordinates, fighting for him.

Seeing Song Ming appear, Zhao Mengsheng quickly shut up, looked up at Song Ming with a face full of admiration.

So does everyone else.

After many times of going back in time, Song Ming has gained a huge amount of popular support, and almost everyone regards Song Ming as the savior of mankind.

Su Yu also raised his head and looked at Song Ming with deep eyes.

Su Yu activated holographic perception towards Song Ming.

In the holographic star tower signal scan, Song Ming is still that "dream creature".

This guy isn't even human.

Su Yu's heart moved and he increased the power of holographic perception. He wanted to conduct a thorough scan of Song Ming to see what secrets he had and why he was chosen to be the savior?
