169: The free and easy God of Time

“That would have to be traced back a very, very long time ago. Are you sure you want to hear it?”

“If you want to hear it, it will take up some of your time.”

Hearing this, Time God spoke softly.

“I want to hear it, I want to hear it.”

Su Bai nodded quickly, a hint of excitement in his eyes.

He was finally going to unravel the mystery in his heart!

“That should have been in ancient times, right...?”

Time God looked up at the sky and took a deep breath.

In ancient times, the Heavenly Dao was born, known as the Azure Sky, and it governed all things in the world.

However, the emergence of Professionals broke the original balance of this World.

Because after Professionals achieved Nine Revolutions and became gods, they would become immortal deities.

After Professionals became deities, they needed to Control the power of Law.

This power of Law originally belonged exclusively to the Heavenly Dao. After the existence of Transcenders, the Heavenly Dao had to share a part of it with these deified humans, which was equivalent to taking food from the Heavenly Dao’s bowl.

Originally, the Heavenly Dao did not care about these minor matters, but as time passed, the situation somewhat exceeded its expectations.

Due to the continuous emergence of deities, the Heavenly Dao's authority was gradually diminished, which eventually led to its dissatisfaction.

Under normal circumstances, even if the Heavenly Dao was dissatisfied, it would not have any emotions.

Because the Heavenly Dao is emotionless and does not mix personal feelings.

However, the Azure Sky had Controlled this power for too long, and its obsession with this power caused it to develop selfish emotions.

From that moment, this Heavenly Dao changed.

It began to intensify its efforts to weaken human deities and even started to find ways to obstruct the human path of Transference.

Ultimately, the Azure Sky used the power of the Heavenly Dao to split the World into two, dividing it into the Divine Realm and the Mortal Realm.

Deities lived in the Divine Realm, and for humans to achieve Nine Revolutions and become gods became an unattainable dream.

In order to reclaim its Law power, that supreme Heavenly Dao also created the Demon Race to fight against the deities, with the goal of destroying them.

Time God showed strong dissatisfaction with what the Heavenly Dao had done, and when persuasion was fruitless, he summoned all the gods and began to slay the heavens.

If the power of all the gods were gathered, the Azure Sky could definitely be annihilated.

Unfortunately, a portion of the deities rebelled at the last minute and became vassals of the Heavenly Dao, which resulted in Time God only being able to seal the Heavenly Dao, and he was still unable to erase the Divine Realm again.

“Are you saying that all the deities alive now are those who rebelled back then?”

When Su Bai heard this, a chill ran down his spine.

It seemed that these despicable and shameless villains were still the same as before, unwilling to let humans share their power, and wanting the current human race to become their vassals.

“Otherwise?”

“If they had joined me in slaying the heavens, the Divine Realm would have long since disappeared. These people are unwilling to give up the authority in their hands, and even more unwilling to give up the power they Control.”

Time God sighed, a hint of helplessness flashing across his face.

Being backstabbed by one's own people is definitely a very painful thing.

“Then you must have worked very hard!”

Su Bai looked at this powerful individual before him, his heart filled with respect.

This was a person who truly did great things for the human race, but unfortunately, he was harmed by some lingering scoundrels.

“It’s nothing hard. You both know the secret of slaying the heavens now, so you two can leave.”

Time God waved his hand, sending the two away from this mysterious space.

“This Lord God is truly uninhibited!”

Su Bai stood at the entrance of the vortex, his mouth twitching slightly.

He just sent them away without even a greeting.

“Indeed.”

Mu Yan nodded, still not having fully recovered from her daze when she was directly thrown out of that space.

“Let’s go, it’s about time.”

Su Bai took Mu Yan and turned to leave this secret realm.

The two returned to the camp. Not all of the Meteor Empire faction had returned yet, likely still immersed in the joy of leveling up.

“You kid finally came out!”

“I'm baffled, how did you manage to get everything?”

“Do you have an equipment piece that contains the Forgetting Law!”

As soon as he stepped out of the vortex, Luo Jiuzhou appeared in front of Su Bai and asked.

“You old man truly have sharp eyes, nothing can be hidden from you. Indeed, it’s an Immortal-grade equipment.”

Su Bai smiled slightly and explained in a low voice.

“Good kid, it’s not in vain that I took the blame for you.”

“Perform well tomorrow, and try to get them another zero.”

Luo Jiuzhou waved his hand, patting Su Bai’s shoulder, and said with a smile.

“No problem.”

Su Bai felt a sharp pain in his shoulder and quickly nodded.

Early the next morning, Su Bai slipped onto the battleship early, hiding among the crowd unnoticed.

【World Boss refreshed, please proceed as soon as possible】

As soon as the battleship started, figures sped from afar, blocking their path.

“Lawrence, what’s the meaning of this?”

“You want to stop us here? Are you worthy?”

Luo Jiuzhou, who was leading, looked at Lawrence in front of him, a hint of disdain in his eyes.

He and Lawrence were old rivals, after all, both stood at the pinnacle of the World.

Luo Jiuzhou had often dealt with this guy before, and had also suffered losses at his hands.

“I heard you broke through to the Demigod realm. Please enlighten me!”

Lawrence slowly extended his hand, appearing very elegant.

“Your news is quite well-informed, indeed, I am now a Demigod.”

“Since you know I’m a Demigod, you still dare to come here and block me? You’re quite bold!”

“Aren’t you afraid of death?”

Luo Jiuzhou’s figure landed in front of everyone, with a myriad of radiant lights rising behind him.

Terrifying thunder roared, countless flames burned, and a sky full of floods howled…

“This old man is so cool!”

Su Bai looked through the crowd at Luo Jiuzhou, who was standing at the very front, and whispered with a smile.

“It is precisely because I know you have broken through to become a Demigod that I came to seek guidance.”

Lawrence not only did not retreat but also showed a hint of fanaticism in his eyes.

Then, black light emanated from the people behind him, and those black lights intertwined, forming a huge magic array.

Ink-black energy soared into the sky, slowly injecting into Lawrence’s body, causing his aura to continuously strengthen.

“Do you think your combined attack skill can truly stop a Demigod? A single step of difference is a fall from heaven.”

“You all go first, I’ll handle these people.”

Luo Jiuzhou waved towards the battleship behind him, signaling everyone to leave first.

The next second, myriad brilliant lights erupted from his hand, and a giant dragon exuding terrifying elemental power roared towards the sky, speeding towards Lawrence.

“A Demigod expert, how terrifying!”

The crowd gathered at the assembly point gasped at this sight.
