523: The new life

However, investigating something so ancient was far from as simple as Lin Tianwei imagined.

Whether intentionally or not, all information regarding the origin of the Star Refining Art had been erased, leaving only the knowledge that it was a cultivation technique bestowed by some great and benevolent existence.

But Lin Tianwei was not a tiger who would easily give up.

After much inquiry and the expenditure of countless resources, Lin Tianwei finally obtained some vague information: the dissemination of the Star Refining Art might be related to the Star Devouring Behemoth.

The clues about the Star Refining Art ended there completely.

After all, no matter how stubborn Lin Tianwei was, he couldn't possibly investigate the Star Devouring Behemoth.

The Star Devouring Behemoth was a God-King, and even out of respect for Lin Tianwei's God-King friends, it was an existence that absolutely could not be easily offended.

If Lin Tianwei had concrete evidence, it would be a different story; he might be able to ask Chaos and Heavensea God-King for help.

But everything was just his speculation, or even baseless nonsense, so how could he trouble his two good friends?

Therefore, Lin Tianwei could only wait, wait for the day the Star Devouring Behemoth revealed his true colors, or for another opportune moment to arise.

However, Lin Tianwei himself never expected that he would wait for hundreds of millions of years, from the distant past to the present, to the era that belonged to Lin Tianwei.

He even waited until the two great universes were on the verge of decline.

The terror of the Star Refining Art far exceeded Lin Tianwei's imagination; only now did he have the confidence to completely separate himself from it.

If he was like this, let alone other Cosmic Beasts, they couldn't even detect the shackles the Star Refining Art had placed upon them.

However, at this point, the Origin Universe had reached a dead end, and the current Lin Tianwei had already been born, so Lin Tianwei naturally had no need to take such a great risk to cut himself off again.

The only thing he needed to do was to let Lin Tianwei inherit his treasures and accomplish the things he had not yet completed.

On a side note, from Day Tiger's memories, Lin Tianwei also learned a very interesting thing: the mystery of the Law Arena's creation.

One day, the Heavensea God-King, on a whim, sought out his friend Day Tiger and asked him how to cultivate a new generation of Cosmic Beasts.

"I want to create a place, a place where young Cosmic Beasts can become stronger and experience the Alien Battlefield in advance."

"This can be considered a growth gift from me, a God-King, for them, a stepping stone for ordinary Cosmic Beasts to grow."

"It's just that I have the idea, but I don't know how to implement it. Day Tiger, do you have a suitable plan?"

When out and about, especially when he was at a disadvantage, how could Lin Tianwei not wear one or two disguises? And Day Tiger was naturally the most famous of these disguises, which he continued to use until the end.

Facing his friend's plea, Lin Tianwei naturally took on the responsibility and said:

"Since it's a place for young Cosmic Beasts, then an age limit for entry is essential."

"Secondly, there are the rewards. Without sufficiently generous rewards, how can these young Cosmic Beasts be attracted to participate, and how can the gap between them and those born strong be narrowed?"

"Finally, there's the venue setup. I recommend using a virtual venue."

"If such a venue were to be built in the real universe, the resources consumed would be unimaginable, and it would also restrict the arrival of most young Cosmic Beasts."

"If the venue is built in a virtual world, there will be no such problems at all. Not only is the construction cost low, but access is also incredibly convenient."

"That's the general framework; as for the details, you still need to perfect them yourself."

Facing Lin Tianwei's idea, the Heavensea God-King exclaimed directly, "Day Tiger, you are simply a genius! To be able to come up with such a perfect idea."

"Since that's the case, the naming rights for this place will be yours. This is one of the few rewards I can give you."

At this time, Lin Tianwei was already powerful enough, having been stuck at the peak of Universe Master for countless years.

Under these circumstances, resources and the like were not important; reputation was more important, and it was precisely because of this that the Heavensea God-King entrusted the naming rights of such an important thing to Lin Tianwei.

After a moment of thought, Lin Tianwei said, "If you want to become stronger, you must fight."

"However, it is a virtual world after all, so to call it 'fighting' is a bit much. Perhaps 'competition' would be better."

"I've got it! Let's call it the Law Arena!"

The reason for using 'Law' as a prefix was naturally to inform these young Cosmic Beasts of the importance of understanding laws.

Facing Lin Tianwei's naming, the Heavensea God-King's eyes were filled with pleasant surprise, and he said:

"Law Arena? What a great name."

"I will build the Law Arena well, so as not to tarnish Brother Day Tiger's prestige!"

Lin Tianwei never expected that the Law Arena he built on Blue Star was not a copy after all; it was merely a replication of his original idea.

How could he call it copying when he was taking his own things?

After receiving Day Tiger's memories, the most important part was the insights into countless Talents and Laws; that was the most crucial thing.

Lin Tianwei was still a bit too young. With limited time, his understanding of Talents and Laws could not possibly be as strong as Day Tiger's.

Day Tiger was right; if he didn't absorb him, Lin Tianwei would indeed have to take many detours.

Day Tiger's knowledge reserves from these hundreds of millions of years could at least shorten the time it took Lin Tianwei to forge his Law Body by 30%, which could be considered an incredibly valuable asset.

Talent: Avatar (Mythical)!

With a thought, a body identical to Lin Tianwei's own was once again differentiated.

In a hazy state, Day Tiger opened his eyes and said with some confusion:

"What's going on? How am I still alive?"

At this point, he looked at Lin Tianwei and said with some displeasure, "Didn't I already tell you the importance of devouring me?"

"Such feminine compassion is completely unlike your style."

Lin Tianwei shook his head slightly and said, "Feminine compassion is certainly not my style."

"In fact, I have already completely devoured you. The current you is merely an Avatar I have differentiated."

"However, for me, your power is optional. The only thing I need is your knowledge reserves from these hundreds of millions of years."

"Moreover, I have extremely important things that I need you to do. You can't start thinking about shedding your burdens and resting at such a young age."

"Sense carefully, and you will gain abilities like mine, controlling the body left by the Mechanical God-King, instantly obtaining the power of a God-King at the fourth stage."

"This power can help you achieve a surprise victory in the final God-King battle. Even if you can't kill the Star Devouring Behemoth, it can buy me a lot of time."

"A day in the mountains, a thousand years in the world."

"I have a premonition that even with a large amount of sand of time as assistance, the time I spend in this seclusion will far exceed your imagination."

"If I cannot stop the Star Devouring Behemoth's conspiracy in time, the only thing the Origin Universe can rely on might just be you."

At this point, Lin Tianwei's right paw instinctively clenched, becoming incredibly taut.

Time, he was still too short on time.

If he could have hundreds of millions of years like Day Tiger, why would he hide at home to comprehend? He could have gone out and wreaked havoc long ago.

Unfortunately, there are no 'ifs' in this world. All Lin Tianwei could do was try his best.

Of course, while trying his best, Lin Tianwei also had many things he could do, such as what he was doing now: giving Day Tiger a new life.

With the cooperation of the Mechanical God-King's body and having already seen through the Star Devouring Behemoth's conspiracy, Day Tiger could accomplish many things, delivering the most fatal backstab to the Star Devouring Behemoth at the most critical moment.

Even if Day Tiger's backstab of the Star Devouring Behemoth failed, he would absolutely be able to buy Lin Tianwei a lot of time.

Sometimes, even a single minute or second can be a crucial factor in determining victory or defeat.

After Lin Tianwei's reminder, Day Tiger belatedly realized that he was no longer in his original body.

Although his appearance was the same, he possessed even greater power. At this moment, he was no longer an ordinary being, but a terrifying Body of Talents.

Under the effect of the Body of Talents, Day Tiger could easily control the Mechanical God-King's body with his consciousness, gaining the power of a God-King at the fourth stage.

That was the power of a God-King at the fourth stage, which would absolutely play a crucial role in the God-King war.

After understanding the current situation, Day Tiger no longer wasted time and directly controlled the Mechanical God-King's body to cover himself, becoming a powerful mech he controlled.

As for Lin Tianwei?

He had naturally already begun his seclusion.

To forge the Body of Talents into an even more powerful Law Body was an extremely vast project.

A silver light representing the sand of time flashed, and time around Lin Tianwei began to accelerate rapidly. Coupled with his own Time Acceleration Talent, Lin Tianwei would gain a hundred-million-fold increase in time.

A billion years?

This was the most abundant battle Lin Tianwei had ever fought in his life. He would do his best to deliver a satisfactory answer... In the same Day Tiger's hall, the same mech tiger departed, but no one knew that the core of this mech tiger had completely changed, becoming Lin Tianwei's Avatar — Day Tiger.

Although Lin Tianwei could also personally control this Avatar,

for him, who needed to concentrate fully on forging his Law Body, such distraction and splitting of his consciousness would undoubtedly be fatal.

He could only entrust the important task of influencing the final battle to Day Tiger.

However, Day Tiger was Lin Tianwei himself, and Lin Tianwei was Day Tiger, so there was no difference.

After leaving Day Tiger's hall and blocking out the surrounding senses, Day Tiger took out his communication terminal and began to contact some old beasts.

Although he did not know the specific strength of the Star Devouring Behemoth, Day Tiger knew that it would be very difficult to contend with the Star Devouring Behemoth with his own strength alone.

Even Blazing Sky God-King, with the strength of a God-King at the third stage, could not hold out against the Star Devouring Behemoth for long, and Day Tiger did not believe that his strength as a God-King at the fourth stage could make much of a splash against the Star Devouring Behemoth.

Therefore, at this time, he had to contact all possible forces to make the most thorough preparations for the final battle.

For Day Tiger, the first person to contact was naturally his good friend, Heavensea God-King, a Cosmic Beast with excellent beast relations in the Origin Universe.

Facing the call of his former close friend, the Heavensea God-King did not look down on Day Tiger because of the difference in strength. Instead, he rushed to Day Tiger's side at the first opportunity.

For the Heavensea God-King, who was extremely familiar with the Origin Universe, reaching any place in the Origin Universe was merely a matter of wanting to.

The moment he saw Day Tiger, the Heavensea God-King was stunned and asked curiously:

"Day Tiger, I didn't expect that after some time apart, you would have adopted such a unique new look."

"However, in my opinion, this is completely unnecessary. After all, the strongest of the Mech Clan, the Mechanical God-King, is only a pseudo-God-King in strength."

The Mech Clan naturally possessed mimetic abilities, but such abilities could not possibly deceive the Heavensea God-King, so Day Tiger naturally had no need for this useless disguise.

Looking down on me?

Hearing the Heavensea God-King's words, Day Tiger was not angry but pleased. He didn't expect to have the opportunity to personally regain his dignity in front of his old friend, so he immediately swung his right paw and launched an attack on the Heavensea God-King.

At first, the Heavensea God-King didn't take Day Tiger's attack seriously at all. After all, he was a God-King and could completely ignore all attacks from Universe Masters.

However, as the tiger's claw got closer and closer to his body, the Heavensea God-King's expression finally changed.

Because he actually felt a power stronger than his own from Day Tiger's tiger claw.

Even so, the Heavensea God-King had no intention of dodging. He intended to personally experience how powerful Day Tiger truly was.

Zzzzt!

The Heavensea God-King's seemingly indestructible body was easily torn apart like a tattered sack under the tiger's claw, and even a large amount of green blood seeped out, looking quite miserable.

However, the Heavensea God-King was, after all, the most skilled at healing among the God-Kings. Even with such terrifying injuries, he still completely recovered in just an instant.

However, while physical injuries could be repaired, the severe damage to his spirit could not heal at all. The Heavensea God-King said in a daze:

"Day Tiger, how is this possible? You actually possess the strength of a God-King at the fourth stage."

"Could it be that the combination of machinery and flesh can actually produce such a powerful spark?"

"No, this is impossible. If it were that simple to increase strength, there's no reason why so many years have passed without any Cosmic Beasts discovering this."

Seeing the Heavensea God-King's usually calm face show such a shocked expression, Day Tiger was secretly delighted. It was finally his moment to shine.

However, he didn't offer any explanation but instead began to transform his mechanical body.

Before long, Day Tiger transformed into the likeness of his old rival, the Mechanical God-King, under the Heavensea God-King's incredibly horrified gaze. (End of Chapter)
