Mecha Era, Punch the Stars

Chapter 469 Supreme
Li Yi's eyes turned strange.

Is this a coincidence?
Is it related to the high similarity between my soul and Flame's?
He shook his head, patted the doll's little head, and smiled:
"From today onwards, you will be called 'Shi' (Time). You are a life form based on the divine energy of spacetime, and you can naturally move within the spacetime structure, possessing a spacetime perspective completely different from humans. In the future, when I am in seclusion, you will be responsible for helping me with some miscellaneous tasks, understand?"

Shi nodded blankly.

Li Yi smiled.

This little thing may not be very intelligent now, but it has left behind a lot of wisdom codes.

As time goes by, I believe it will gradually grow into a reliable little helper.

As his methods improve, 'Shi' will definitely continue to evolve.

Creating life sounds amazing.

That's truly remarkable.

But it hasn't reached the point of creating a living species yet.

If 'Shi' were not maintained by his intervention, it would probably only be able to last for a few decades at most before the power of the Zhenkong membrane gradually weakens and it becomes unable to lock in this ball of divine energy of time and space.

Therefore, there is still a long way to go before a completely new race can be created.

Regardless, Li Yi finally understood the gourd man's state of mind at that moment.

It is indeed very interesting to create life and explore the mysteries of wisdom when one can live for a very long time.

Even now, with the blessing of the Myriad Translation Realm, Li Yi cannot fully unravel the mysteries of life and wisdom.

He is now simply extracting the codes of intelligence from humanity and piecing them together.

But why does the information represented by this code come to life and intelligence?

The deeper principles and subtle variations have not yet been fully grasped.

It is estimated that this will only be possible when the precision of nanosensing reaches 0.1 nanometers, or even lower, 10 femtometers or 1 femtometer.

Once he reaches that stage, he estimates that he will be able to completely rewrite the underlying genetic system of a life form and create a new species by hand.

At this moment, because Li Yi had previously blasted away the surrounding cloud of divine energy with a punch.

By this time, the surroundings in front of him had become much clearer.

The demigods and quasi-gods who were watching gathered around, seemingly preparing to greet them.

The powerful figure, whose aura far surpassed that of everyone around him, remained standing in a corner, seemingly observing something.

The tall, slender man in turquoise armor, standing a thousand meters away from Li Yi, spoke directly in the language of the First Era:

"Congratulations, friend, you have made great progress."

"I am Lianming, a quasi-god from the first era of divinity, the time of the god of agriculture. You, sir, are a human genius from the sixth era, the chaotic period. Lord Li Yi? Greetings."

The era of the god of agriculture?

A chaotic period?

Li Yi's heart stirred.

"I am Li Yi. Judging from your appearance, you have only recently recovered. How did you learn about us humans so quickly?"

"Your Excellency is unaware of this, but this is the Palace of the Year God, which naturally records everything that has happened since the birth of the universe."

"The so-called Book of Time is the symbiotic treasure of the God of Time."

"Although the later part of the Book of Time was lost, we still have a copy here. Through this Book of Time, we can naturally know everything in the universe."

Lianming, the quasi-god, smiled slightly.

His face looked quite young compared to the other armored men.

He possessed an extraordinary air about him, surrounded by a group of armored figures who clearly regarded him as their leader. It was unclear where the Black Life Quasi-God had gone.

Could it be that he gained a lot before and went into seclusion?
and……

Has the secret book of time been lost?
This aligns with what the Calabash Man previously commented about hiding the Book of Time in the southern section of the Heritage Tower.

A thought flashed through Li Yi's mind, and he understood:
"I see. But I've heard that the text in the Book of Time is obscure and difficult to understand. Without the original code, it's hard to comprehend. Do you also possess the secrets within?"

His question also served as a probe.

I heard from Black Fate Quasi-God that he would try to ask if he could get the corresponding codebook from the God of Year.

However, because the communication in their native language was so profound and Li Yi was so engrossed in it, he completely forgot about it.

Now that I hear it, it's not unreasonable to ask.

Lianming, the quasi-god, smiled and said:
“I naturally do not possess this knowledge, but among our Year God’s messengers, there are some who can see the cosmic phenomena that appear when the Year God enters a dream.”

"In this way, we can correspond with the copy of the Book of Time and understand everything that has happened in the past and present."

"After all, the codebook of the Book of Time is the God of Time himself."

"And we only dare to interpret the images that Lord Sui Shen saw in his dreams."

"Even if what we have is just a copy, as long as we use the physical body of the God of Time to decipher it, the pages of the Book of Time will inevitably be altered due to some interference during the deciphering process."

"A single change in the secret manual could be an immeasurable and terrifying catastrophe for the universe."

Li Yi understood now.

No wonder the Black Life Quasi-God said before that the secrets contained in this Book of Time have an extremely strong destructive power over the universe.

Essentially, the God of Years might represent everything in the universe related to time.

As he changes, everything in the universe and with the passage of time will change as well.

And time is the thing that changes everything the most easily.

Therefore, the importance of the Year God is probably much higher than that of other similar prehistoric creatures.

Unless, there exist prehistoric beings in this world that represent the other two main characteristics of spacetime: time and time itself.

Just then, the mysterious expert who had been standing in the distance suddenly moved, his body flashing as he appeared a hundred meters in front of Li Yi.

This distance is already very close for experts of their level.

This person should be an armored human from the third era. Judging from his appearance, he is quite different from the species that evolved from arthropods and exoskeletons in the first and second eras.

It is an armored humanoid that is more like a miniature evolution of a serpentine divine being.

His half-open eyelids concealed a pair of sharp, vertical pupils. Gray-black scale armor covered half of his body, while plate armor was fastened on his chest, highlighting two massive pectoral muscles.

It has a slender body and a long tail that is thick in the front and tapering to a point at the back. Its scales are delicate and dense, with a lustrous sheen.

He stared at Li Yi and spoke in the language of the second era:

"It's been a long time, Li Mingtuyi. I didn't expect you to survive the second era and only recover in this era."

Everyone was surprised when he said this.

Lianming, the quasi-god, exclaimed in surprise:
"Supreme Dragon Radiance, this person before you is a newly emerged species from the Fifth Era, a race that has only grown strong in this era. Humanity is not like old guys like us. Are you mistaken?"

"Besides, judging from Lord Li Yi's soul characteristics, he is completely from this era!"

"Wrong?"

A slight smile appeared on the lips of Supreme Dragon Radiance, his gaze turning cold: "Even if he were reduced to ashes, I would not mistake this guy."
