Chapter 610: The Strong Should Wield Their Blades Against the Stronger

【If you are determined to track me down, I can give you a chance. Go to the origin and the end of the Time-Space Mother River; if you can reach them, I will leave something for you.】

Li Heng frowned, feeling somewhat surprised in his heart.

Was this a case of hitting the mark by mistake, that the message left by that person was just like this? Or did that person truly perceive that he was investigating this matter? This matter was something he had decided on the spur of the moment.

However, regardless of which possibility it was, it meant that the person who left these messages was not simple. To actually involve the origin and end of the Time-Space Mother River, it was enough to show that their strength was truly terrifying.

Up until now, he had never heard of anyone who could reach the origin or the end of the Time-Space Mother River, not even that Heavenly Emperor.

"Interesting, then I must see what you have left behind."

Li Heng smiled and spoke to himself. Although he could not reach the origin and end of the Time-Space Mother River at this moment, it did not mean he would be unable to in the future, so he gladly accepted this "challenge."

"Eh, this fellow Daoist, are you also one who has just attained the Dao?"

At this moment, in the Xu Wu Zhi Di where the Time-Space Source Point was located, the place of origin for everything in this era, a figure suddenly appeared, dressed in sky-blue Daoist robes, looking like a Daoist.

The Daoist was very surprised when he saw Li Heng and asked.

Li Heng glanced at this Daoist and immediately discerned the Daoist's origin: he came from the future of this era, had just attained the Dao, verified the supreme status of this era, and was currently flowing upstream against the Time-Space River, gathering all his other-selves, arriving at the Time-Space Source Point of this era to carve his own mark, thereby reversing cause and effect to change his own background into a noble and ancient one.

"You could say that, I have just attained the Dao not long ago."

Li Heng responded with a smile.

"Then congratulations, fellow Daoist. This poor Daoist has also just attained the Dao. Before attaining the Dao, I inherited the lineage of Guangfa Tianzun. I do not know which lineage you belong to, fellow Daoist? I actually have no impression of you at all?"

After the Daoist congratulated Li Heng, he asked with suspicion, his peripheral vision inadvertently glancing at the Time-Space Source Point manifesting beside Li Heng; clearly, he had become suspicious.

The Daoist felt puzzled in his heart: what was going on?

Was he not the only fated person to attain the Dao in this epoch? How could there be another one now? Could it be that he had evaded the sight of the various Heavenly Venerables and Great Sages who had already attained the Dao?

Or was he a well-connected person even more heaven-defying than himself?

And what was that thing beside the Daoist? It was somewhat strange, emitting the aura of the origin of all time and space. But this was the Xu Wu Zhi Di, still before time and space, belonging to the state of 'nothingness' in the stage from nothing to something; logically, such an object should not exist here.

"Why must you be so secretive, fellow Daoist? What you want to ask is surely not which path I come from, but rather what this thing beside me is, right?" Li Heng smiled, piercing through the Daoist's thoughts.

"Then I ask fellow Daoist to enlighten me."

After his thoughts were spoken by Li Heng, the Daoist was stunned for a moment, then laughed self-deprecatingly and asked aloud. He was indeed curious about this thing; if someone could enlighten him, that would be for the best.

"This thing is called the Time-Space Source Point."

"Time-Space Source Point?"

The Daoist repeated it, feeling it was not simple.

"The function of this Time-Space Source Point is also very simple: it is to use this as an anchor to separate various eras, so that each era develops independently and does not see one another."

Li Heng smiled calmly.

Various eras, what did that mean? Could it be that there were even more ancient eras before their own? But how could that be possible? He had already traced back to before the origin of all time and space, arriving at the realm of nothingness from nothing to something; how could there be more ancient eras?

"This joke of yours is not funny, fellow Daoist."

The Daoist's expression turned slightly cold, and he said calmly. In his view, the person before him was just fooling him, and it was the kind of fooling that didn't even want to spend time making up a reason.

He was no longer a three-year-old child in a village who would be bewildered by a string of candied haws. He was a supreme being who had attained the Dao, transcended above the Time-Space River, and whose thoughts could create or destroy the Great Thousand Worlds!

"Is it really just a joke?"

Li Heng gave a playful smile.

"As the saying goes, there are heavens beyond heavens, and people beyond people. Fellow Daoist, do not be complacent. Although you appear to be able to gather infinite other-selves, project into the Heavens and Myriad Worlds, reverse cause and effect, modify the Time-Space River, transcend above time and space, and possess an indestructible innate spiritual light..."

"However, do you truly believe this is the ultimate, and have you truly transcended time and space? Those who are truly on the shore of time and space are immune to all kinds of time-space methods. Not injured by time and space, not destroyed by time and space—this point you have yet to achieve."

Li Heng shook his head and tapped his finger lightly on the Time-Space Source Point.

In an instant, the Time-Space Source Point shattered. The only obstacle separating the two eras disappeared, the two eras merged instantly, the roots changed drastically, causing the powerhouses of the former and latter eras to notice.

In the former era, countless Demon Gods and powerhouses were shocked.

The Time-Space River had suddenly and inexplicably doubled in length! And on a newly emerged section of the Time-Space River, many powerful auras were entrenched, strong enough to rival them, causing the future possibilities that had already been absolutely controlled to transcend control.

In the latter era, many Heavenly Venerables and Great Sages were puzzled.

They felt their own backgrounds falling.

Originally, at the beginning of attaining the Dao, by reversing cause and effect and returning to the beginning of all origins to carve their own marks, their backgrounds had become incomparably ancient and precious, but suddenly they became much more ordinary. All those Chaos Demon Gods and Heaven-Opening Sacred beings lost much of their divinity in this instant!

Then the next moment, they discovered that the Time-Space River had become longer, twice as long, and it was connected to the place of the origin of all time and space. Could there actually be even more ancient eras!?

Whether they were Demon Gods or Heavenly Venerables and Great Sages, they could not sit still at this moment and flocked to the place where these two eras met and merged. After both sides noticed each other, they were greatly alarmed and hurriedly confronted one another.

"Xuan Yuan, what exactly happened here! What accident happened here when you attained the Dao!" The top powerhouse among the Heavenly Venerables and Great Sages, Guangfa Tianzun, looked at that Daoist Xuan Yuan and asked in confusion.

Daoist Xuan Yuan was somewhat bewildered and incredulous.

However, being a powerhouse who had attained the Dao, he quickly recovered his composure and told everything that had just happened to Guangfa Tianzun and the various Heavenly Venerables and Great Sages confronting the Demon Gods.

A Time-Space Source Point that separated two eras? A Daoist who appeared inexplicably, disappeared, and shattered the Time-Space Source Point? Our level is not the ultimate, and we have not truly transcended time and space?

After listening to Xuan Yuan's words, thoughts churned and boiled in the minds of the powerhouses, and they were incomparably astonished.

It was said that there is no limit beyond the limit, and they had long since reached this level and had also played the game of infinite ascension. But at this moment, this concept had actually been broken; did a new heaven really exist?

Regardless of how puzzled or astonished both sides were.

But they all knew that a true, great change had arrived!

Li Heng was currently on his way back to the Multiverse Alliance, feeling very happy. He had checked Xuan Yuan's era; although there were powerhouses who could modify timelines and transcend time and space, these powerhouses were intentionally or unintentionally preventing latecomers.

This was undoubtedly a stagnant pool, lacking variables.

Then, in that case.

He, the great merciful Li, would naturally save this era and introduce new variables to it. From a long-term perspective, this was a great thing for both eras.

Shattering the Time-Space Source Point, making the powerhouses of both eras leave their cradles, so that their attention would not be on internal strife, playing games, modifying timelines, and toying with all living beings, but rather on the strong wielding their blades against the stronger.

Hmm, truly a great Merit Virtue.
