520: Day Tiger

The first thing Lin Tianwei had to do, naturally, was to build a factory capable of infinitely producing cyber souls; this matter was related to his strength, so it was something he absolutely had to do.

Fortunately, with the Mechanical God-King as a precedent, this matter was very simple for Lin Tianwei.

He only needed to recall Kai and have him be responsible for using Lin Tianwei's data to enlighten data life.

Speaking of which, one must mention Lin Tianwei and Kai's reunion; the scene was truly somewhat shocking.

It was also the first time Lin Tianwei realized that the Mech Clan could possess such a rich range of expressions.

Fortunately, Kai was already somewhat numb to Lin Tianwei's abnormal actions; after the initial brief shock, he returned to his original state.

It's just unknown if his inner self was as calm as he appeared on the surface.

After the cyber factory arrangements were complete, the second thing Lin Tianwei had to do was naturally to inquire about the Day Tiger Merchant Guild's situation.

Knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in every battle!

Information gathering is crucial at all times, especially in the current situation involving a Planetary-level entity.

While Lin Tianwei could easily crush Day Tiger with his strength, he couldn't guarantee that the other party wouldn't resort to a scorched-earth tactic and directly destroy the ownership documents of Blue Star.

In this situation, proceeding gradually and catering to their preferences was naturally the best choice.

This journey was actually faster than Lin Tianwei had imagined; after all, for the current Lin Tianwei, he possessed countless resources, and his strength was incomparably mighty, with no Cosmic Beast daring to offend him.

Almost as soon as he expressed his desire to meet Day Tiger, the meeting was instantly finalized.

It's just for some unknown reason, even when facing a super-big customer like Lin Tianwei, Day Tiger showed no intention of appearing personally; instead, he requested Lin Tianwei to meet him at the very core of the Day Tiger Merchant Guild.

If it were before, prior to acquiring sufficiently powerful strength, Lin Tianwei might have hesitated.

But now, possessing God-King Fourth-tier strength, how could he be afraid to meet Day Tiger? He naturally accepted the invitation with pleasure.

No matter the time, powerful strength is the guarantee of everything.

Following the attendant's guidance, before long, Lin Tianwei arrived at the entrance of Day Tiger's grand hall.

To his surprise, the style of this hall actually made Lin Tianwei feel a slight sense of familiarity.

As he explored his memories, Lin Tianwei quickly arrived at an answer: this hall's layout was somewhat similar to that of the Tiger King Temple.

Whether it was intentional or the most accidental coincidence, Lin Tianwei believed all the answers would be revealed after he met Day Tiger.

Extremely dim, this was Lin Tianwei's first impression upon entering Day Tiger's grand hall.

This powerful being who controlled the Day Tiger Merchant Guild seemed to be an extremely frugal existence, not even bothering to prepare any lighting.

Even so, it had no impact on Lin Tianwei whatsoever.

With his terrifying strength, coupled with the Siberian Tiger's night vision Talent, he was perfectly capable of seeing in the dark.

Following the direction in his memory, Lin Tianwei indeed saw a figure at the very core of Day Tiger's grand hall; presumably, this figure represented Day Tiger.

However, the moment he saw this figure, Lin Tianwei became puzzled.

Because the figure crouching at the very center of Day Tiger's grand hall was incredibly familiar to Lin Tianwei,

So familiar that Lin Tianwei could be said to know it like the back of his hand.

Because it was none other than Lin Tianwei's own figure; the so-called Day Tiger was actually a Siberian Tiger that looked exactly like Lin Tianwei!

Seemingly sensing the surprise in Lin Tianwei's eyes, Day Tiger finally spoke, saying:

"You're finally here."

This sentence was without beginning or end, yet it gave Lin Tianwei a sense of destiny, as if the two tigers were fated to meet.

However, before Lin Tianwei could respond, Day Tiger began to speak to himself again:

"I knew we were destined to meet again, but I didn't expect this opportunity to arrive after billions of years."

"You've really made me wait for far too long."

"Oh well, as long as the Origin Universe still exists, I haven't prepared for too long."

At this point, Day Tiger's massive body descended directly from the throne and walked straight towards Lin Tianwei.

Ignoring the mecha on Lin Tianwei's body, the two Siberian Tigers were like looking into a mirror, identical.

The only difference was perhaps in strength.

Day Tiger's strength was clearly inferior to Lin Tianwei's, possessing only the peak Universe Master Level strength, not even counting as a pseudo God-King.

Day Tiger was indeed a seasoned Universe Master, incredibly powerful, even stronger than Fritz, the president of the Chaos Universe Alliance.

Especially the powerful aura he exuded, that mighty Tigers Might, was not something an ordinary Cosmic Beast could possess.

However, even Day Tiger's formidable strength was nothing more than cannon fodder in front of Lin Tianwei, who possessed God-King Fourth-tier strength.

Lin Tianwei was no longer the Siberian Tiger who was bullied by other Cosmic Beasts!

"If you know me, you should know I dislike such vague talk the most."

"Before I get angry, I think you know exactly what you should do."

Although Day Tiger looked exactly like him and possessed the exact same aura, this did not prevent Lin Tianwei from feeling annoyed.

Riddlers deserve to die, and riddle tigers deserve to die too!

Seemingly sensing Lin Tianwei's impatience, Day Tiger chuckled softly, saying:

"You're still so impatient, even more impatient than I am."

"But then again, the time you've experienced is simply too short, not enough to allow you to become sufficiently composed."

"Perhaps this is the difference between you and me!"

However, Day Tiger also knew that too much idle talk was not good, at least it was very easy to anger the existence before him, who was far more powerful than himself, so he began to reveal the truth to Lin Tianwei, saying:

"I wonder if you still remember that spaceship that launched from Blue Star into space ahead of time, serving as your backup plan?"

The time since Lin Tianwei burst out of the universe seemed very distant, but in reality, it was only about a hundred years ago.

No one could have imagined that Lin Tianwei, this Siberian Tiger who burst out of Blue Star, could have such a huge impact on the universe,

Even changing the pattern between the two major universes as a result.

Lin Tianwei naturally remembered that spaceship; it was entirely a backup plan.

After all, as a Cosmic Beast confined to Blue Star, even if Lin Tianwei had achieved heaven-defying strength through his own efforts, he still wasn't completely confident in dealing with the Star Devouring Beast Avatar.

Facts also proved that Lin Tianwei's backup plan was not wrong; although he ultimately defeated the Star Devouring Behemoth, it was by a narrow margin, a close call.

Regarding this spaceship, which served as a backup, Lin Tianwei naturally chose to retrieve it afterwards.

After all, it contained a piece of his body tissue, so how could he let it wander randomly in space?

However, the attempt to retrieve this spaceship ultimately failed.

That Cosmic Beast did not have the good fortune of Blue Star; it was directly torn apart by an explosion caused by encountering a turbulent current.

Although there were remnants, the piece of tissue separated from Lin Tianwei's body could not be found, and he eventually had to give up.

After all, Lin Tianwei was not strong enough at the time, and his body tissue simply could not withstand the power generated by the spaceship's explosion.

However, from Day Tiger's words, it seemed there was a twist regarding that spaceship, and something had happened to it that he himself was unaware of.

Seeing Lin Tianwei's expression of realization, Day Tiger stopped beating around the bush and directly revealed the truth, saying:

"That's right, I am the product of the evolution and development of the body tissue you once stored on that spaceship."

"By virtue of the powerful Talent I once plundered on Blue Star, I ultimately managed to survive tenaciously."

"However, the turbulent current that spaceship encountered back then was not an ordinary turbulent current, but a temporal turbulent current, crossing the river of time and directly sending me to a world countless years ago."

At this point, Day Tiger's eyes instantly filled with a sense of melancholy.

Who could have imagined that a simple temporal turbulent current would send him back billions of years, to that desolate and silent era?

However, this was not an opportunity, but rather a terrible disaster.

At the dawn of the universe, the rules were not yet complete, and incredibly ferocious Cosmic Beasts lived everywhere.

This was simply a disaster for Day Tiger, who barely possessed Planetary-level strength.

To survive, Day Tiger made many difficult choices, choices that would affect his entire life, and this was also the main reason why he now seemed to be having a difficult time.

Facing Day Tiger's self-disclosure, Lin Tianwei seemed not at all surprised.

In fact, with Lin Tianwei's incredibly strong perception and Day Tiger's obvious demeanor, Lin Tianwei had already determined Day Tiger's identity at the very first moment.

The only thing that puzzled him was the other party's identity, as he had no impression of having left behind such an Avatar.

Even if he had left an Avatar, it shouldn't be so much older than Lin Tianwei in age.

After Day Tiger's explanation, Lin Tianwei finally understood, grasping the truth of the matter, saying:

"So that's it, I didn't expect such a magical thing to have happened within it."

"Sorry, you're really a bit too weak, I almost didn't recognize your identity."

"No wonder you've been clinging to the ownership of Blue Star; it turns out you already knew its importance, something that absolutely cannot fall into the hands of other Cosmic Beasts."

"And I'm not afraid to tell you, no matter how strong you are, you are ultimately a part that branched off from me; through the Talent: Avatar (Mythical), I can instantly digest and absorb you."

"Looking at you, it seems you don't want to obediently return to my body, plus I don't lack your combat power, so I don't necessarily need to reclaim you."

"Hand over the ownership of Blue Star to me, and propose some reasonable conditions,

As long as you don't use my name to deceive other beasts in the future, we can go our separate ways directly."

For Lin Tianwei, who possessed the Talent: Avatar (Mythical), he had absolute control over things that belonged to him.

He could even effortlessly reclaim Day Tiger's power into his own body and completely absorb everything he possessed with just a thought.

However, for Lin Tianwei, Day Tiger was simply too weak; a little more or a little less power made absolutely no difference.

Since that was the case, he wasn't necessarily set on reclaiming Day Tiger.

As long as the other party obediently handed over the ownership of Blue Star, he wouldn't mind letting the other party live.

After all, it was not easy for the other party to have lived for such a long time.

Facing the conditions Lin Tianwei offered, which could even be considered extremely generous, Day Tiger merely shook his head slightly, refusing:

"As expected of me, my magnanimity is truly vast, and the conditions offered are extremely generous."

"But you've overlooked one thing: this isn't what I truly need."

"As long as you and I don't meet, no matter how powerful you are, you won't truly be able to cross the river of time and sense my existence."

"This is the infinite power that time possesses."

"What I truly need has never been to escape you and gain freedom; I have a higher pursuit."

"And what I'm doing now is precisely to achieve my pursuit!"

Pausing, Day Tiger continued: "You are very strong, even stronger than I imagined."

"I have imagined countless times the scene when we meet again, but I didn't expect that you have already obtained God-King Level power through an extremely special method, growing to a degree sufficient to crush me."

"You are clearly a Siberian Tiger less than a thousand years old, while I am an old monster who has lived for billions of years; this disparity truly makes me feel a bit displeased."

"It's very simple to obtain the ownership of Blue Star from me; you just need to convince me completely."

"Let's fight, let's have a hearty battle, a battle unique to Siberian Tigers."

"The victor is king, the loser is a bandit."

"We will fight according to the law of the jungle; the winner will possess everything of the loser: body, mind, and soul."

Day Tiger's words made Lin Tianwei frown involuntarily; he never expected Day Tiger to propose such conditions.

The victor is king, the loser is a bandit?

Did he really think he would adhere to martial ethics and simply hand over the immense power he had accumulated over countless years to another tiger?

How could Day Tiger have such a foolish idea? This was completely wishful thinking.

Thinking of this, Lin Tianwei said with a nonchalant expression: "You seem to have overestimated the importance of Blue Star's ownership."

"Even if we were to make this grand gamble, the stakes you've offered are extremely unequal."

"If you can offer stakes equal to my current strength, then what if I grant you a fair fight?"

"Otherwise, I naturally have no need to agree to your strange conditions and suffer such strange losses."

These were Lin Tianwei's true thoughts; he never feared a so-called fair fight.

After all, Lin Tianwei had cheated; a so-called fair fight was actually the most unfair fight.

But he would never participate in such a completely unequal gamble.

And now, the pressure was on Day Tiger to see if he could offer stakes enticing enough to Lin Tianwei. (End of Chapter)
