Mecha Era, Punch the Stars

Chapter 456 Magnificent
Black Fate Quasi-God and Li Yi gradually ventured deeper into the Palace of the Year God.

"In short, you are now qualified to access the secrets of the Book of Time, and you are no longer afraid that it will backfire on our own universe."

"Could it be that the God of Time himself has a mission such as protecting the balance of spacetime in the universe?"

Li Yi asked in surprise.

Logically speaking, a powerful being like this shouldn't care about the changes in the universe at all, right?

"You don't understand. The Book of Time is a true divine artifact of such rank that even the God of Time cannot resist its power."

Black Life Quasi-God explained.

However, his statement only confused Li Xun more.

If this thing can even influence the Year God, then why would they be willing to entrust the secret to someone else?

Although Black Fate Quasi-God didn't see Li Yi's expression, he clearly guessed what he was thinking and laughed:

"He who does not plan for the future will have trouble in the present!"

"This secret will be exposed sooner or later, and Lord Sui cannot keep it hidden forever."

"When disaster strikes, the God of Time will fall into a deep sleep, and at that time, he will leave our universe with the relics of time."

"Because although he is not afraid of disasters, the power of disasters has indeed become stronger and stronger over the years."

"This time, we must stay as far away as possible."

"At that time, it may not be possible to find the way back on its own."

"At that time, we'll need to find a reliable friend to bring back the relics of time that we've lost in the universe after the disaster has passed."

"The key item to the recall is the Secret Book of Time."

"Since that's the case, I might as well entrust it to you."

"You are already a member of the Divine Armor Saint Clan. If even you cannot escape the calamity, then there is no need for this universe to continue existing. Don't you agree?"

Li Yi was speechless.

The Black Life pseudo-god's statement does make some sense.

"So, Lord Black Fate will also leave our universe with Lord Year God?"

Yes, that's how it is.

"When was that?"

"It's hard to say. Maybe tomorrow, maybe a hundred years from now. It all depends on the God of Time's mood. I only know that he will leave this era, but I don't know exactly when he will leave."

"Very well, then you seem to be having a very carefree time."

"Alas, what kind of carefree life is this? Ever since we decided to hide in the Ruins of Time and become messengers of the God of Time, we have been unable to advance in our cultivation levels for the rest of our lives. We can only say that we have a longer lifespan, but pursuing the highest realm is out of the question."

Black Life Quasi-God laughed at this point:
"No matter what, this is fate. My black destiny has long determined that my upper limit is limited to this. Unless one day I can comprehend spacetime and unite the three divine elements of time, time, and years into one, and reverse time, then I can change my original fate."

Upon hearing this, Li Yi's heart stirred slightly.

Can we change our fate by reversing the future?
But what about the Black Fate Quasi-God who said he had changed his fate of being shrouded in darkness?
"May I ask, sir, you previously said that my fate was shrouded in darkness, but later, due to various factors, it transformed into a sign of soaring fortune. What is the reason for this?"

Upon hearing this, the Black Fate Quasi-God sighed slightly:

"Because you did many things against the heavens, your fate was reversed. That's one way. But I'm different from you. By the time I mastered the Way of Black Fate and reached the pinnacle, it was too late. My fate had already been completely ruined."

"If I had found a trace of something that hadn't yet turned black before my fortune completely turned dark, and maintained and nurtured it, I might have had a chance to break through again."

"As for now, we can only hope for a solution that is even more difficult, more elusive and unpredictable, like reversing time."

Li Yi understood.

It seems that the so-called defying the heavens is probably related to things like the Divine Prison, the Enlightenment Mountain, and the inherited relics.

However, the most crucial thing should be the invention of the Body Tempering Method. He was confident that among all the events he had experienced, only the Body Tempering Method could be considered truly unprecedented and unique.

This is a special method that could only be accomplished based on multiple conditions he met.

Currently, no one else besides him can achieve his level in body tempering techniques.

As they spoke, the number of free-floating mental entities around them gradually increased.

It has reached a level of power that can be seen with the naked eye.

Li Yi's gaze swept across the mental entities, observing them with a silent admiration.

Good heavens, even a random free-floating thought is much larger than the mysterious thought we encountered in the heritage ruins.

It is indeed true that it is one of the greatest beings in the universe.

This level of mental intensity could probably kill a high-level Heavenly Realm expert instantly.

Unfortunately for Li Yi, after the recent dimensional enhancement, his soul strength should have reached the threshold of demigod level.

However, his anticipated breakthrough to the demigod realm and the resulting immortality of his soul did not occur.

Now, seeing the will of the God of Year and feeling its influence on the external environment, he vaguely grasped something.

Other conditions must be required.

The will of the Year God did not attain immortality.

Therefore, the immortality of the soul may not be so simple.

"Could it be that we need to create a truly heaven-defying method, like the Body Tempering Technique, that transcends divinity?"

"If that's really the case, then perhaps I can start by looking at the fragments of memory."

"The vacuum mindfulness method I learned before was good, but it's still far from perfect."

While pondering, Li Yi followed the Black Fate Quasi-God and arrived at a deep pool where spiritual entities were gathered.

It was a two-dimensional water surface located above the void, without any cracks, yet as clear as a mirror.

Above the water, a large number of thick, shark-like, transparent mental entities slowly rose up and then spread outwards towards the outer perimeter of the Palace of the Year God.

Wow!
A mental object grazed Li Yi's ear and flew away into the distance.

Another enormous, whale-like entity of consciousness swam up to Li Yi, stirring up a large amount of void.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of magnificent and vast images were generated in Li Yi's mind.

A slight thought struck him: these vast images contained a wealth of information, instantly giving him a glimpse into the origins of the universe.

"Don't be nervous, this is a gift from Lord Sui to you."

"The God of Year said that this was the initial universe scene he witnessed in the early days of the universe."

"You are proficient in spacetime abilities, so you should gain a lot from seeing these images."

The voice of the Black Life Quasi-God rang in Li Yi's ears.

Li Yi glanced at the Dream Plains subconsciously and saw that a large number of time-space memory fragments had indeed spawned there.

Although these memory fragments are not as numerous as those gained during the previous dimensional ascension, they are still quite significant.

In the blink of an eye, the already vast dream plain was expanded even further.

Throughout the plains, numerous newly added fragments of memory floated, filling the cracks in the ground.

With so much, how long will it take to digest it all?
This is truly a happy dilemma.
