Experiment Moderator: Cheng Shi!

When the dry hot wind brushed Hu Xuan's cheeks, this Sage of 【Birth】 stood on the hillside under the mine, looking up at that unmistakable 【Abyss Volcano】, full of shock.

She certainly recognized where this was, but she wasn't sure where exactly underground she was.

Not bad, this place could only be underground!

After Cheng Shi in the experimental field mastered the key of the limit of truth that pried the whole experiment, not long after, the few players who intercepted the Great Scholars outside the experimental field felt the shaking of the world spinning at a certain moment.

Immediately after, their vision went black, and when they opened their eyes again, the scene in front of them had changed.

Tusnat was gone, the Yu Hui Sect was gone, the Great Scholars were gone, and even Galiusha was gone. All that remained were six—no, five—players!

Everyone looked back in shock and suspicion, but saw that Cheng Shi had long disappeared in the direction of the experimental field that was originally behind them. All that remained was Wei Zhi, and at this time Wei Zhi was also looking at everything in front of him in a daze, muttering to himself:

"Gate of Downfall..."

"Gate of Downfall!?" Fang Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and he felt that the trial seemed to have gone wrong. "How could it be the Gate of Downfall?

Isn't this the front-line position of the Extreme Desire Brotherhood, Galiusha's old home underground?

What is Cheng Shi doing? Why did the experiment change instead of ending?"

Hearing this, everyone had different expressions.

Meng Youfang and Chen Yi looked at Wei Zhi, always feeling that this resurrected president of the Reason Association had played tricks, causing the experiment to go wrong.

Hu Xuan, on the other hand, looked around with some worry, trying hard to find Cheng Shi's figure. She wasn't worried that Wei Zhi would pit Cheng Shi. After all, in her eyes, no one could pit this shrewd Fate Weaver.

She wasn't afraid that Cheng Shi would do anything out of the ordinary either. If he hadn't been out of the ordinary, she would never have survived under Zainjier's gaze and plucked the identity of the Eternal Sun.

The Sage was just thinking about whether there was any accident that the experiment didn't end in time. Did Cheng Shi need her help at this time? After looking around and not seeing Cheng Shi's figure, her heart was put down instead.

Not seeing anyone meant that this liar had started lying again. At this time, compared to worrying about the other party, it was better to worry about the person in front of her. For example, was the Wei Zhi standing behind everyone really Wei Zhi?

Wasn't his flesh and blood used to reorganize the limit of truth? Then what backup plan did this Wei Zhi resurrect through?

At the moment of losing the enemy, the five players looked at each other and fell silent at the same time.

It has to be said that the Sage guessed correctly. Cheng Shi did indeed start operating—no, I should say he started lying.

And this time, he even lied to himself!

This place was indeed the Gate of Downfall, and it was also the place where the six players witnessed the legend of 【Time】.

When Cheng Shi entered the "Creator" mode and began to examine this experiment, he was thinking that the will of 【Truth】 could be transmitted to the trial and influence the Great Scholars' decisions, letting them steal the player's identity to get rid of the shackles of history, which showed that 【Truth】 must have a plan.

Plus the ubiquitous hints of 【Time】, he once thought he was witnessing 【Truth】 stealing the authority of 【Time】.

In the past, even if true gods stole authority from each other, Cheng Shi would only think it was a normal thing. But this matter happened to be that 【Truth】 attempted to steal the authority of 【Time】, and precisely, 【Time】 was the key to breaking the space-time barrier and "connecting" countless slice universes, so Cheng Shi couldn't help but think more: was 【Truth】 using this way to explore the "truth" of the universe He thought?

This set of logical thinking was so correct that it was almost impeccable. From Cheng Shi's perspective, it was difficult to add anything extra. Until now, he had always thought so.

When he couldn't master the limit of truth, his idea was very simple: end this trial quickly and tell the God of Fun about 【Truth】's intentions. Regardless of whether the other party knew or not, at least in this way, no matter what actions 【Truth】 had, he, as a member of the Fear faction, would feel at ease.

But ever since he mastered the limit of truth and opened the "Creator" perspective of the experiment...

Everything changed.

You know, Cheng Shi is not just Cheng Shi; he is also Cheng Xiao Tan, the Greed Lord, and the man who mastered the 【Filth】 container.

Under the influence of 【Filth】... forget it, show your cards, it's just greed, but it's not pure greed; he has his own considerations.

First, he is an undeniable believer of 【Time】. No matter how much the Lord casts His gaze on him, 【Time】 is also one of the Fear faction after all. So when a god tries to seize his Lord's authority, as His believer, Cheng Shi has no reason not to retaliate.

Second, after the Clown's meeting, the clowns set many directions, one of which was to try to break through the time barrier, explore other slice universes, and absorb various experiences from another universe to preserve their own world.

In fact, under the protection of 【Time】, Cheng Shi had many opportunities to contact other people in other slice universes using the 【Time Deduction Method】 talent, but the communication with others was always a bit lacking, feeling like there was a layer of window gauze, hazy and blurry. So he had been thinking about whether there was a chance to see another himself.

A few months ago, Cheng Shi, who didn't know the truth of the universe, didn't have this idea at all. He always kept to himself. Even if he saw another himself, he would at most hide in a corner and watch the other party's fun.

But now his thinking has changed. He is indeed a bit confused about the road ahead. He doesn't deny that the ultimate purpose of his living is to comply with Old Jia's "will," but just for the sake of living, he doesn't seem to have such great motivation to talk about "saving."

Just because he simply wants to live, he goes to approach a "rebellious" god and gets the smartest players in this game to work together to break the situation. This is a self-deceiving pseudo-proposition in itself, because in this process, he has inevitably been doing the act of saving the world.

Cheng Shi feels that he is not that great, but he is unwilling to give up his life, so he can only be pushed, stumbling forward on this blurry road ahead.

He had been asking himself long ago, but he couldn't ask for an answer, so he decided to ask another himself.

Other Cheng Shis must also be struggling. From the feedback from Cheng Dashi and Long Jing in another world, they are not just struggling, but also passing hope outward.

Since everyone wants to say something to the outside, it's better to bump into each other and make it clear face to face.

And right now, it was the best opportunity he had encountered in such a long time.

Using the power of 【Truth】 that attempts to steal the authority of 【Time】 as a base, pry the power of the limit of truth to reproduce the scene of that trial at that time.

You know, the limit of truth is a small-scale 【Truth Ritual】, and the 【Truth Ritual】 has the power to reshape the "world." So in Cheng Shi's view, the way 【Truth】 seizes the authority of 【Time】 is actually very simple. He doesn't need a trial at all. He just needs to change the power of the 【Truth Ritual】 to reshape everything to reshape the "position" of a thing, and he can complete the mastery of the authority of 【Time】. And this authority might be... "backtracking."

Based on this understanding, Cheng Shi reconstructed this experiment. He decided to pull time back to the Gate of Downfall, create a himself who is a variable of the experiment, and then turn himself into the variable "Qin Xin" in this experiment...

Then when "Qin Xin" meets himself, can he launch the time deduction method on another himself in the experiment, so as to see another himself in the slice universe in the identity of "Qin Xin"?

This is not impossible, but it is still a big gamble!

Cheng Shi must bet that his understanding of the 【Truth Ritual】 is correct, and also bet that 【Time】 will allow himself to use the 【Time】 power that breaks through the space-time barrier under the covetousness of 【Truth】.

As for 【Truth】, He naturally won't refuse, because He is already stealing the authority of 【Time】, and it seems that He is about to succeed. Being able to use the power of 【Time】 to drive the Truth Ritual might be one of the proofs.

Since the matter of 【Truth】 stealing the authority of 【Time】 is a foregone conclusion, it is natural to strive for the greatest benefit for himself on this established conclusion.

Therefore, out of all kinds of considerations, Cheng Shi personally hosted this "reunion" experiment that spanned time and even space, and came to another himself in the identity of "Qin Xin."

And when he said meaningfully, "Do you want to make a move on me?", the experimental variable Cheng Shi immediately launched an offensive, throwing a headless corpse straight at him! ===== CHAPTER 1058 =====
