LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 576 A glimmer of hope
"You can't go back to the past."
The Lord of Time strode forward.
The golden river continued to flow and escape around him.
Along with it, there were also timelines that had been heading towards him, but at this moment they were gradually collapsing and breaking.
But at this time, the Lord of Time no longer had the intention to pay attention.
He has consolidated countless timelines and successfully cut off the future. All timelines that started with him as the starting point have only two results in the end, one is to break, the other is to be fused by him, there is no other choice.
But Liu Chengyuan...
As he said, although he has the ability to interfere with time and space, he is not truly eternal.
He doesn't know how many attempts it will take to create a perfect past and let it grow to the point where it can be eradicated and satisfy him.
It's like setting a cause and an effect, but no one knows what will happen in the middle process.
If an ordinary person gets a coin, he will become the richest man in the world in the future.
The former is the cause and the latter is the effect.
In the end, the person who gets the coin will inevitably become the richest man in the world.
But the day he became the world's richest man, he died.
Or he is not dead, but is paralyzed, or has his arms and legs broken, and is subsequently investigated and punished by state departments, etc.
Cause and effect are controllable, but the process is uncontrollable.
Liu Chengyuan's "Law of Cause and Effect" page is the best example.
Under such circumstances, he naturally did not want Liu Chengyuan, a masterpiece that had finally produced perfect fruits, to rot.
"You have cut through the past, which means that there is no past. In other words, you cannot go back to the past even in a special environment like the long river of time. What's more... you and I are one. This, You can tell from the long river of time that carries you and keeps coming to me. Affected by this, even if you exhaust your energy, at best you can only allow yourself to reverse the past a little bit, but this little bit of reversal cannot give you If you want to change my past or my future, you have no choice but to integrate into me.”
The Lord of Time.
He has calculated everything, so he will naturally not make trouble on these issues.
Liu Chengyuan blends into him. This is a decision of time and will not be changed by Liu Chengyuan's will.
"No matter how correct and reasonable you are, I just don't want to integrate into you. Rather than die in your hands, I choose to commit suicide."
Liu Chengyuan burned himself and tried his best to return.
The power of one's own and the power of the river of time continue to collide, causing thousands of waves, and even manifesting into a burst of extremely gorgeous golden light, illuminating the entire section of the river of time.
pity……
The long river of time that was originally a great help to Liu Chengyuan has now become a burden to him, dragging him down.
Even if he wanted to go back in time and choose to commit suicide, he would still be carried by the power of the long river of time, making it difficult to retreat.
Just like trying to swim upstream in a fast-flowing river, no matter how hard the people in the river struggle, they are still inevitably carried by the current and rush forward.
"I lost."
Liu Chengyuan's entire body was enveloped in a brilliant golden light.
His spirit, will, and even heart are all burning. Also burning is his unwillingness, denial, and disobedience.
As he said, I can't beat you, but I just don't accept it.
The golden flames continued to burn fiercely on Liu Chengyuan's body, and the brilliance shone to the extreme.
So much so that even the figure of the "future" Time Lord gradually became blurry.
"My life was given by you. Everything about me was arranged by you. The character I want to live in was also shaped by you. Without you, I would not have a past or a life." Now, there will be no future...Now, let me destroy everything you gave me!"
Liu Chengyuan was in an open-minded mood.
He opened his hands, as if to release the wantonness and freedom in his heart.
"The past that forged the foundation, the infinitely possible present, the ultimate and only future...all are destroyed."
Liu Chengyuan burned with abandon, like a moth that had been ignited by the flame. Even though he knew that he would die, he still wanted to burn himself to his heart's content and die vigorously.
He couldn't choose his origin, his character, his achievements, or his path, but at least...
He can choose his own death.
"Either...let me try."
At this time, a ripple of consciousness rippled in Liu Chengyuan's mind.
This sudden realization made Liu Chengyuan, who was starting to burn himself, slightly stunned.
"Number one!?"
"It's me."
Number One responded.
"you also……"
Liu Chengyuan wanted to say that she had also reached the end of time, but he swallowed his words before he asked.
Number 1, but he has always carried her with him. In addition, she has also become a supreme and transcendent person. Why can't she enter the long river of time?
"Is this... the source of your incredible performances time and time again, and the methods beyond my understanding? The Lord of Time in the future?"
No. 1 is constantly calculating some data.
Back then, she thought she had understood Liu Chengyuan time and time again, but Liu Chengyuan was able to use incredible weapons to reverse the situation time and time again. This was the biggest mystery in her heart.
And now...
The mystery was finally solved before her.
That is the power of the future time lord.
It was also the power of the person who arranged Liu Chengyuan's life.
"You just said..."
"I'll try."
No. 1 said: "What this future Lord of Time will do is to integrate you into himself, so that he can smoothly cut off the future and past, and then become the only true self and achieve ultimate eternity. And your cultivation... Is it also necessary to cut off the future and transcend the future? "
"yes."
Liu Chengyuan said, looking at the vaguely visible figure of the future shrouded in bright golden light: "It's just... I can't surpass the future."
He cannot transcend the future when all the rules are controlled by the future.
"Actually, over the years, you have given me a lot of information about ultimate eternity, including information about the road to eternity. I sorted through this information and found a question that I can't tell right from wrong."
No. 1 said: "There is a saying that... whether a person can achieve eternity is already determined the moment he steps into the long river of time."
"What's the meaning?"
"Perhaps...I mean based on what I know, you have not transcended the future to achieve eternity, and the Lord of Time has not transcended the past to achieve eternity."
No. 1 said and thought for a moment: "This leads to the possibility that you were not fused by the Lord of Time in the end. Of course, there is also a possibility that even if the Lord of Time fused you, he could not truly fuse you. Cut off the past and cut off the future, the only true self will achieve eternity.”
"I have not transcended the future to achieve eternity, and the Lord of Time has not transcended the past to achieve eternity..."
Liu Chengyuan was a little confused: "That's all I am, a dying person, but the Lord of Time, with such calculation and layout, still failed in the end?"
For a moment, he didn't know whether to feel gloating that the Lord of Time had failed, or to feel lost and melancholy because of the difficulty of the road to eternity.
"A person who is about to die... If you are in the outside world, this is indeed the case, but in a special environment like the long river of time, it may not be the case. Perhaps, there is still a glimmer of hope."
Lane 1.
As soon as these words came out, Liu Chengyuan was shocked: "Vitality?"
"The road to your future has been decided. The Lord of Time who has completed the contraction of the future is a hurdle that you cannot overcome no matter what. All the rules are under his control and formulation, but... your past... It’s something beyond his control.”
Lane 1.
"My future?"
Liu Chengyuan seemed to have thought of something: "My past?"
"Yes, if you cut off the past, you will naturally no longer be restricted by the Lord of Time. If you really have any vitality, you will rest on the past..."
No. 1 said: "This is a possibility that I calculated based on that speculation. Maybe it is wrong. Maybe you can't change anything, but...it depends on whether you are willing to do it."
"I have always believed that there is no big deal in life, only by living can you have everything. This is also the strongest belief in my heart."
"Okay, I will get an opportunity for you, an opportunity that allows you to get rid of the past and walk out of a past that is completely yours. At that time, you will be a brand new you, a person who will not be affected by the future. The Lord has no influence on you. When you can do this, you will naturally transcend the future. "
Lane 1.
"The past...you mean, first transcend the past, and then transcend the future."
"It's about shaping the past, a past shaped by you. This past only belongs to you, completely you."
Number 1 repeated, and at the end, added: "To be precise, it is reversing time and space."
"Reverse time and space?"
"I came up with this method based on the actions of the saints in the prehistoric universe. They sent a space-time magic weapon named Qingping Holy Sword to the past with the help of the long river of time. If you cut through the past, it also has a trace of eternity. , plus you happen to be in a unique environment like the long river of time in the prehistoric universe. Can you, like the Qingping Holy Sword, transcend the past shaped by the Lord of Time, walk out of a brand new life, and then start from that? A new life, beyond the future.”
"Reverse time and space..."
Liu Chengyuan felt the long river of time transformed by his eternal path.
This long river restrains him, making it impossible for him to even go back in time and commit suicide, let alone reverse time and space at the past node, walk out of a new past, and interpret a new life.
"Leave this long river of time in you that belongs to the Lord of Time to you."
"you?"
"Don't forget, we two share the same origin."
No. 1 smiled: "I will take your place to integrate with the Lord of Time. The reason why I can achieve supreme transcendence is because I have integrated part of the power of the Lord of Time, plus the commonality between the two of us, And at this moment, the Lord of Time can’t wait to merge with you. If I deceive him, the possibility is very high..."
Speaking of this, she said leisurely: "Perhaps we will be noticed and seen through by the Lord of Time soon, but as long as you seize this opportunity...by the time he reacts, the worst outcome for you will be to go back to the past and go smoothly. Suicide, if you're lucky..."
"Stepping out of a brand new past and interpreting a brand new life... a life that, to some extent, is equivalent to transcending the future."
Liu Chengyuan murmured.
With the bond between No. 1 and the Lord of Future Time, it may not be impossible to deceive him and give him hope.
"yes."
No. 1 nodded: "This is your chance of survival."
"Then if you are fused with the Lord of Time in the future..."
Liu Chengyuan looked at No.1.
"I have my own way to get out of this."
No.1 said, urging: "You don't have much strength left, so let's get started without further delay."
