Chapter 1447: The Interrupted Confession! The Stirrings in the Void!

In the starry void, a blazing star floated silently.

Around this blazing star were many other planets.

On one of these planets, vegetation thrived, oceans covered half its surface, and hundreds of millions of lives dwelled upon it.

At that moment, a colossal entity suddenly leaped onto the blazing star.

This colossal entity was far smaller than the blazing star; its size compared to the star was like a ping-pong ball beside a football.

Yet its sudden appearance still drew the attention of countless lives on the planet.

These beings turned to look and saw the colossal entity suddenly open its mouth.

Then, they saw the blazing star being swallowed into its mouth at a visibly rapid pace.

The blazing star vanished!

No, in fact, the blazing star had already been swallowed before the people on that planet saw it.

Because light from the blazing star took several minutes to reach that planet.

By the time the people on the planet noticed, the blazing star had long ceased to exist, and the colossal entity that devoured it had already left.

This colossal entity cared only for the blazing star; it had no interest whatsoever in ordinary planets or the life upon them.

Yet the disappearance of the blazing star meant absolute world-ending for the life on that planet.

Beside this planet, Lin Yan stood silently, observing everything.

Suddenly, the vision shattered rapidly before his eyes.

Time's up!

"Ten minutes."

Lin Yan murmured.

After years of experimentation, Lin Yan had gained some insight into the use of the Time Rule.

Ten percent of the Time Rule allowed Lin Yan to witness events occurring within a region over ten minutes.

These ten minutes did not mean viewing events from exactly ten minutes in the past.

They meant Lin Yan could sustain the ability for only ten minutes total.

How far back he could see depended on how much power he was willing to expend.

This time, after multiple attempts, Lin Yan used time reversal to witness an ancient god devouring a nearby blazing star.

That had happened long, long ago.

Back then, it was still the Age of the Ancient Gods!

But altogether, Lin Yan could only observe for ten minutes before he had to withdraw.

For these ten minutes, Lin Yan expended a full two drops of Primordial Divine Power.

This cost was not insignificant.

Two drops of Primordial Divine Power, if used in battle, could sustain Lin Yan for a very long time.

If used to create "seeds," they could produce hundreds of millions of "seeds."

Yet to activate the Time Rule and reverse time to witness the past, it could only sustain ten minutes.

And there was nearly a month's cooldown.

Moreover, such reversal placed immense strain on the divine body.

Of course, if Lin Yan reversed time in his flame form, the strain was negligible, though the cooldown remained.

"Seems of little use."

Lin Yan whispered.

Indeed, even if one could witness the past, what could it change?

Nothing at all.

According to Lin Yan's speculation, in this world, even if he mastered the Time Rule to 100%, he could not alter the past.

Time in this world was terrifyingly powerful.

Other Primordial Gods dared not even touch it.

Had Lin Yan not possessed his flame form, his divine body could never have touched the power of time at all!

The faint trace of time power he possessed came from Venerable Tianlan, through his flame form.

And the advancement of time power grew alongside the advancement of his flame form.

In his divine body form, Lin Yan would likely need to waste eons—like other Primordial Gods—to even reach the level of the Time Rule.

"Still, it might help uncover some secrets."

Lin Yan thought.

Some secrets of the Heavenly Realm could be asked directly of the Goddess of Life and the Goddess of the Ocean.

The relationship between the Goddess of Life, the Goddess of the Ocean, and Lin Yan was far from ordinary.

The Goddess of Life had a calm demeanor and revealed nothing.

But the Goddess of the Ocean's gaze toward Lin Yan clearly held something unusual.

When Lin Yan had questions, the Goddess of the Ocean even extracted memories from her divine core to give him, aiding his understanding.

As a powerful Primordial God, after the Goddess of the Ocean became one, Lin Yan no longer needed time reversal to learn most things in the Heavenly Realm.

What Lin Yan was interested in were events before the Heavenly Realm's creation.

After all, at his current strength, he now had the right to approach deeper aspects of this world.

At a certain status, one's experience, knowledge, and insight become part of one's power!

After this experiment ended, Lin Yan temporarily halted his study of the Time Rule and turned his gaze to the dark starry void.

Around him now was empty space, with nothing existing at all.

But Lin Yan knew that eons ago, a living galaxy had existed here.

It seemed that after the Ancient God devoured the Flame Star, the surrounding planets had all changed their orbits and vanished somewhere.

As for the life on that planet, it had most likely gone extinct after losing its sunlight.

Lin Yan felt little emotion about it.

He could roughly understand the mindset of some other Primordial Gods.
