Starry Sky Railway: No one understands the Amber King better than me.

Her eyes reflected the light of the stars, like the flames of a burning starry sea, burning in her eyes as well.

Caesar's eyes flickered slightly, as if he had made a decision.

Lin Yuan knew that despite the seemingly harmonious atmosphere just moments before, Krystalla wouldn't trust anyone. In her eyes, everyone was merely a pawn.

But Lin Yuan didn't trust her at all. A silent flame was burning within him.

He simply watched it all, a detached observer and witness.

Until the flames burst forth and burned toward the gods.

Chapter 495 are all the same

As the saying goes, a day in heaven is equivalent to a year on earth.

For Onphalus, this applies beyond mythology as well.

In the brief moment after Xing was captured by Lycus and taken outside the mythology, several years had already passed in Onphalos.

Lin Yuan didn't know what could happen in a few years.

From that day on, he took the anchor and, amidst Caesar's discontented gaze, seized her throne.

In order to suppress the possibility of Laikushi's existence in this cycle of reincarnation, he also dressed up as an emperor.

In that one sitting, the world changed dramatically.

...........

What can happen in a few years?

After failing to track down Lai Gu Shi, the geniuses briefly left and began to investigate from the outside.

Caesar left the banquet with Heather. They had arrived with a large number of guests, but left with only a handful.

But for Caesar, as long as she doesn't lose everything, she still has a chance to turn things around.

Unfortunately, Onphalus's enemies weren't there to play chess with her. Those who can overturn the table decide the fate of the world.

It could be described as an old man teasing a mischievous child.

Caesar: Your elbow!

However, within Onphalus, the empress still wielded overwhelming power.

Not long after, Lin Yuan heard from the visiting Golden Descendants that Caesar had successfully defeated the Ocean Titans.

Lin Yuan warmly welcomed the Golden Descendants' visit.

Like the timid Tibo in this life, and the humane young lady Aglaia, they curiously asked Lin Yuan about things beyond the heavens, and Lin Yuan told them everything they wanted to know.

Before the throne, people come and go, and time flows by.

Xi Lian lingered for a long time at the spot where the star had disappeared before leaving. Not long after, she returned and asked Lin Yuan to take one last look at the spark that held Onpharos's hope.

The purple-gold light reflected in Xi Lian's eyes, making her face look even more beautiful.

She breathed a sigh of relief after reading it, but then became anxious again:

"I wonder how my friend is doing after all this time."

"What's wrong, little pink-haired girl? You don't have confidence in her? I have more confidence than you do. After all, she has quite a few little pink-haired girls around her."

Lin Yuan smiled slightly.

“They definitely have the most confidence in their partners!” Xi Lian put her hands on her hips, but a flash of worry disappeared in her eyes:

"But this time, the enemy we face is too dangerous, and my partner..."

"Are you talking about the Ancient Ones, or the Iron Tomb? Heh, for me, their real enemies aren't them." Lin Yuan curled his lip, not saying much more.

"But no matter who the enemy is, I firmly believe that man can overcome nature."

"You really are...an extraordinary person." Xi Lian looked at his unwavering conviction, slightly taken aback:

"I truly hope that Pharos's tomorrow, and everyone's future, will ultimately be a perfect romantic story."

The girl lowered her eyes, a thousand thoughts swirling within them.

A romantic story? I think it's more like a romantic ancient tale! Lin Yuan chuckled:

"Human potential is limitless. As long as you want to go, the road is right under your feet, and there are no limitations to this body. Little pink hair, I encourage you."

Xi Lian gave him a deep look, then smiled brightly and bid farewell to Lin Yuan.

Time continued to flow.

On one occasion, Heather stayed behind and asked Lin Yuan with some curiosity whether oceans existed in outer space.

Lin Yuan showed her the Scale Abyss Realm of the Immortal Ship, and when Hai Seyin left, a rare satisfied smile appeared on her face.

This fish, which had been wandering aimlessly in the ocean in search of the meaning of its existence, became attached to that flame after encountering it.

...........

Finally, even without the evil deeds of the ancients, the Black Tide's destruction of the world still arrived irresistibly.

Lin Yuan learned from the Black Tower that Xing, influenced by her memories, had broken free from Lai Gu Shi's control. However, due to the different flow of time inside and outside, she had not yet returned.

After some time, in the Cloud Stone Heavenly Palace, Xi Lian, who had been missing for a long time, was greeted by the returning star.

Lin Yuan then left the throne and the Divine Enlightenment Tree Court for the first time, heading towards the heart of the Creation Vortex.

The primordial vortex is now shrouded in the power of the ocean fire, making it inaccessible from the outside.

But it meant nothing to him.

.........

"Tap tap tap".

Footsteps echoed on the ground. Caesar and Heather, who were standing there, turned around and their expressions changed when they saw Lin Yuan.

"Do it, Heather, now!"

The moment Krystra saw Lin Yuan arrive, her gaze suddenly turned to Heather.

Heather hesitated for a moment, a hint of sadness appearing on her face, before slowly raising the sword in her hand.

“Don’t be in such a hurry to die, Caesar. I know what you want to do, but I’m not here to stop you,” Lin Yuan said.

Caesar paused, turned to look at him, his eyes filled with undisguised distrust.

"Stop here, outsider!"

Seeing Lin Yuan stop, Caesar said coldly, "Speak, what do you know?"

"As the embodiment of the Final Agreement of Onpharos, you wish to sacrifice your own life to add a rule to the final re-creation, ensuring that Onpharos will not become a victim of the galactic conflict. Am I right, Your Majesty Caesar?"

Lin Yuan smiled.

"That's true."

Caesar was somewhat surprised, but he explained:

"This law is very simple: if any abnormality occurs during the re-creation process, Onphalus will immediately eliminate all external factors, and the twelve sparks will complete the final re-creation with the purest destruction."

"Clap clap clap." Lin Yuan clapped his hands, his face showing appreciation:

“According to this law, we outsiders either have to defeat the Iron Tomb to save Onpharos, or Onpharos can stand on its own in the interstellar space even if it is only in the form of the Iron Tomb. This is forcing us.”

"Ha, so what if you know? If you're here to stop me, it's too late! I, Caesar, never take back my moves!"

Crydela wore a provocative smile, but Lin Yuan remained calm in response.

“I said I’m only here to witness.”

He opened his hand, and a purple-gold flame appeared within it. A flash of light, and yet another possibility was refined into it.

"Alright. Caesar, as someone from beyond the heavens, I also pay my respects to you."

He slowly lowered his hand, turned and walked away without looking back. After a few steps, he suddenly stopped:

"Oh, by the way. Caesar, you might wonder why I, as someone from outer space, didn't stop you."

Because, no matter what choice you make, it's the same for me.

He smiled slightly and waved his hand.

"You two may never see each other again. I hope you enjoy this part of your story."

Then he left the center of the cosmic vortex.

Tip: Kids, no matter how much you plan, you still can't escape the game's backstabbing. As the company's theme, today's backstabbing is more severe than all other versions combined.

Keep up the good work!

But this is a good thing!

Chapter 496 Towards the End

On the chessboard, the struggle between destruction and survival is determining the fate of the galaxy.

With Lin Yuan knocking down the piece representing protection, the game entered the endgame.

The two sides fought fiercely, with the side representing destruction already at a disadvantage due to the encroachment.

But at the critical moment, a sudden change occurred. A third-party force intervened and began to orchestrate a plan.

With each side gaining and losing ground, the game once again reached a stalemate.

...........

With Lin Yuan's assistance, Black Tower and Screw Gum successfully breached Lai Gushi's firewall and locked onto his true identity.

However, just when the two geniuses thought they had victory in the bag, a third force seized the opportunity to intervene.

The intrusion of the Yiting forces caught everyone off guard, and Laigushi also took the opportunity to escape.

The Memory Thieves flocked to the scene, both to uncover the secrets of Onphalus and to lay the groundwork for the upcoming war of the gods.
