Chapter 1373: Chapter 2: The Void
Even for a Time Lord, it is very difficult to completely kill a time lifeform.
The simplest method is to kill the time lifeform’s weaker past self.
Thus affecting the present.
But changing the past, altering a time lifeform’s future destiny.
Requires enduring significant backlash.
Unless there is an immortal enmity that demands revenge.
Otherwise, a Time Lord wouldn’t pay such a price to specifically kill a time lifeform.
…
“The vessel for this descent…”
Lin Yuan gazed distantly at the vast world.
Becoming a time lifeform, the Myriad Realms Gate unlocking the ability to return to the past, travel to the future, and actively choose a vessel for descent.
In addition, many originally possessed abilities were also enhanced.
For instance, such as observing the source world through coordinates, which originally could only be sustained for a brief moment.
But now?
As long as Lin Yuan doesn’t actively extinguish this thread of consciousness, it can be maintained indefinitely.
A ripple emerged in Lin Yuan’s gaze, and for a moment, the temporal lines of the many beings in the distant source world all appeared within his field of vision.
The beings Lin Yuan chose were all on the verge of complete death, meeting the conditions for his descent.
[At age 1,682, you died]
[And then lived again…]
[At age 2,372, you awakened a special constitution…]
…
[At age 77, you died]
[And then lived again…]
[At age 3,200, you ascended to the thirteenth tier, becoming a time lifeform…]
….
[At age 246, you died]
[And then lived again….]
[From death to life, the power in the depths of your bloodline was triggered…]
….
A vast number of future timelines fell into Lin Yuan’s eyes.
In all of these future timelines, they experienced death and then returned to life.
This rebirth here was the result of Lin Yuan’s descent.
If Lin Yuan chose not to descend, death would truly mean death, with no future of “living again.”
It was through observing future timelines like these that Lin Yuan assessed the potential of each condition-fitting vessel, then chose one to descend upon.
“Which one to choose?”
Within dozens of breaths, Lin Yuan observed over ten thousand timelines, selecting some dozens of vessels more suitable for himself.
These dozens of vessels either had special bloodlines or constitutions, providing benefits for Lin Yuan’s ninth Physical Body Divine Ability.
Or they had noble statuses, sparing Lin Yuan from worrying about early-stage cultivation resources.
“Let’s wait a bit longer.”
Lin Yuan did not immediately make a choice. The third source world was vast and boundless, with countless beings dying at every moment. Among these dead beings, there would undoubtedly be vessels more suitable for Lin Yuan.
Currently, none of the selected dozens of vessels exceptionally satisfied him.
…
A mighty Milky Way swept through time and space, engulfing all things in the universe, continuously surging as if it had no end.
At various positions within the Milky Way, the presences of thirteenth-tier time lifeforms were concealed; this Milky Way was a dimensional space.
Also known as the Heavenly River Dimension.
Nine time lifeforms from the Tai Xu Dimension stood somewhere within the Heavenly River Dimension, facing off against seven time lifeforms of the Chaos Void.
“That Lord Mo Xu is a big problem, with no weaknesses whatsoever. Strong even within the First Realm, found his path to becoming a Time Lord.”
The Master of Taixu frowned slightly.
He was the first time lifeform born from the Taixu Dimension, also the most powerful. Yet he still felt it daunting to face Lord Mo Xu.
Although since the standoff between the two dimensions began, he and Lord Mo Xu had never clashed.
But not having fought didn’t mean there was no understanding. The Master of Taixu had observed many future timelines where ’Lord Mo Xu’ was encountered, and there was no assurance of firmly suppressing the opponent.
In fact, in over sixty percent of the future timelines, he was at a disadvantage, unable to defeat ’Lord Mo Xu.’
If not for the fact that there were two more time lifeforms in the Tai Xu Dimension compared to the Chaos Void.
This time, in the scramble for the soon-to-be-born Heart of the Heavenly River, the Tai Xu Dimension was estimated to fail.
“What to do now?”
Other time lifeforms from the Tai Xu Dimension looked to the Master of Taixu.
Continuing to stalemate like this was not a solution; eventually, it was an expected mutually damaging result for both the Tai Xu Dimension and the Chaos Void.
Time lifeforms are extremely calculated in weighing pros and cons; if at the end, nobody benefits, then it’s better to minimize losses as much as possible.
“Contact that one.”
The Master of Taixu spoke softly.
The open reason for Tai Xu Dimension competing with the Chaos Void for the Heart of Heavenly River was because a time lifeform within needed it to flush their body and dispel hidden dangers.
But this reason was deliberately put forth by the Tai Xu Dimension.
In reality, the Tai Xu Dimension had little interest in the Heart of the Heavenly River.
The reason for competing for the Tai Xu Heart was entirely due to a transaction with a Second Realm time lifeform.
Not long ago, a Second Realm time lifeform approached the time lifeforms of the Tai Xu Dimension, willing to pay a certain price in exchange for their attempts on the Heart of Heavenly River.
The price was irresistible to the Master of Taixu, hence, he agreed.
A moment later.
Outside the Tai Xu Dimension.
The Master of Taixu and nine time lifeforms saw the Second Realm time lifeform.
This Second Realm time lifeform, clad in a gray robe, seemed void-like, quietly observing the nine Tai Xu Dimension time lifeforms.
He was named ’Gray Ancestor,’ not a time lifeform from this dimensional gap, but from a faraway region.
Once time lifeforms leave their home dimension, they choose to explore the vast dimensional gaps, attempting to explore other dimensional spaces.
