Chapter 1833: River of Ages

The world's authority is shifting.

The Dark Sect Master stands upon the heavens, as if the sun, moon, and stars all gather around her, accompanying her breath, flickering uncertainly.

She seems like a true creator god, her will beginning to replace the world's will.

Countless beings are terrified by this; even Jiang Tianwang, Yan Jie, Yan Changsheng, and Su Ying, who have just ascended to the Lord Realm, feel a terrifying will gradually rising in the world, leaving them as if mired in a swamp.

The heavenly and earthly energy of the entire world begins to roar at this moment, and like turning into a toxic substance, it starts to resist and erode the world's living beings.

The position of World Sovereign designed by Li Luo is now falling toward the Dark Sect Master.

And once this supreme position completely settles upon the Dark Sect Master's head, then this world will be under her control; at that time she will be sufficient to break the power balance between her and Li Luo, and win this Ten-Pinnacle Contest.

Li Luo thought of the road to end the Ten-Pinnacle Contest, but unfortunately, this road, the Dark Sect Master actually possesses greater advantage than him.

Because she has inherited the fortune of the Sect Master and the Source of Myriad Evils, the fame of these two existences, inscribed in the River of Ages, after one era after another of reverent sedimentation, their names are profoundly weighty.

If Li Luo is the fortune's child of this present era.

Then the Sect Master and the Source of Myriad Evils are the fortune's children of the past.

The Dark Sect Master relies on their fame, and naturally will more easily grasp world authority and achieve the so-called "World Sovereign" position than Li Luo.

Li Luo gazes at the Dark Sect Master's silhouette, his face showing a hint of solemnity.

This contest between the two sides has already reached the most perilous point.

However, it is not truly a dead end, after all, this "World Sovereign" road was pioneered by Li Luo, so he naturally has prepared some countermeasures.

Li Luo's eyes are deep; the true names of the Sect Master and the Source of Myriad Evils span the River of Ages, having undergone sedimentation through many eras; although he has now achieved Ten-Pinnacle Supremacy, he has not experienced the passage of ages, so the depth of his true name is inferior to theirs.

But it is also not without countermeasures.

"Ages."

Li Luo whispers; in his deep pupils, a magnificent long river visible only to him is reflected, the long river vast and boundless, without end, precisely this world's River of Ages.

Although the Aspect of Ages has been sacrificed by Li Luo, as long as this aspect once came into being, Li Luo can directly transform into nothingness through the "non-aspect" of "nothing is not."

In the River of Ages of the Shenzhou world, the Sect Master and the Source of Myriad Evils are the most radiant sun and moon, one possessing endless reverence and awe, the other possessing endless fear.

No one can compare with them in the foundation and weight accumulated across eras.

Therefore Li Luo forges another path; he alone cannot achieve this naturally, but he can, in the River of Ages, gather the fortunes of the many brilliant beings who once shone in each era, using their fortunes to unite myriad into one.

These beings individually are naturally far inferior to the Sect Master and the Source of Myriad Evils, but if the heavenly talents of many eras ultimately gather together, that remains an不可小覷 fortune.

Although the sun and moon are dazzling, the power of gathered stars is equally bright.

Gathering from the past River of Ages the fortunes of those heavenly talents who once shone in their respective eras, this method sounds utterly unimaginable, but for Li Luo at this moment, it is not impossible.

The River of Ages in Li Luo's pupils gradually becomes clear.

The River of Ages represents the past, and according to common sense, no one can affect the past, because no one can return to the past; even spirits cannot do so.

But Li Luo can.

He uses the Aspect of Ages to communicate with ages, to reflect the River of Ages.

At the same time, he possesses the Non-Aspect.

Where the mind is, there is nothing absent.

Naturally, this also includes the past.

Although in this past, he will not possess his present might, merely existing like a shadow, yet it is already sufficient.

At this moment, Li Luo's intent becomes a hundred million, appearing in the past River of Ages; he seeks within it those powerhouses who ascended to the peak in each era, gathering their fortunes one by one.

Thus in the River of Ages, threads of fortune-light flow rise upward,

and vast fortune gathers in Li Luo's hands.

His gaze becomes ever deeper.

Time flows within the ages; Li Luo seems to have merely experienced an instant, yet also seems to have passed through one long era after another.

But the gathered fortune still falls far short.

For this, Li Luo can only sigh in his heart; that Sect Master and Source of Myriad Evils are truly too terrifying; they have, in effect, shaped everything; all subsequent eras have been shrouded and covered by their fame.

Li Luo can only continue along the River of Ages, moving forward, gathering more fortune.

Unknowingly, he has already passed through many eras.

Numerous eras flow past in Li Luo's heart like water; his steps suddenly begin to slow, and finally even begin to halt abruptly due to a shock.

"How could this be?"

Li Luo's gaze sweeps the River of Ages; in the depths of his eyes, an incredulous hue appears.

For as he walks through one past era after another, he suddenly discovers that in this River of Ages, an extremely important existence is missing.

That is...

That is!

The founder of the Non-Aspect Holy Sect!

Li Luo's gaze suddenly deepens; his heart surges with unprecedentedly tumultuous waves.

He surveys the vast and boundless River of Ages of the Shenzhou world, yet finds not a trace of that founder who established the Non-Aspect Holy Sect!

The founder who established the Non-Aspect Holy Sect seems to have never appeared in the past River of Ages from beginning to end.

But if there were no such founder, how could the Non-Aspect Holy Sect possibly have come into being?!

Moreover, in her previous conversation with the Sect Master, she said that in her childhood, she once obtained an opportunity; in that opportunity, she received guidance and instruction from the founder of the Non-Aspect Holy Sect, and only then did she enter the Non-Aspect Holy Sect and achieve those astonishing accomplishments across many eras.

But now, that founder does not exist; then who is the person she spoke of who taught her?!

A heavy doubt brings a chilling sensation that arises spontaneously from the heart.

Li Luo gazes at the surging River of Ages; his whole person remains still and motionless, as if turned into a stone carving.

But in the depths of his eyes, there is surging the light of vast deduction.

Until a certain moment.

Bang!

It seemed a crisp sound rang out, spreading from Li Luo's brow.

That was a... forehead flick.

In Li Luo's pupils, a delicate face was reflected—Jiang Qinge.

Li Luo stared at her in some surprise; this forehead flick was not something they usually shared in their pastimes, but Jiang Qinge had done it... and that action was something the sect master had done before.

Gazing at Li Luo's surprised look, Jiang Qinge gave a light smile and said softly: "At the moment her traces completely vanished, her memories also appeared in my heart, so I too came to know much."

The sect master's memories appeared in Jiang Qinge's heart... the relationship between these two has truly become unusually complex.

"Do you know?"

Jiang Qinge's eyes shone with deep interest as she gazed at Li Luo and said: "Do you know what I saw in one of those memory scenes?"

Ripples appeared in Li Luo's eyes, yet he still smiled and asked: "What did you see?"

"I saw... your figure."
