At the same time, but the crazy

Chapter 650 The Arrival of Luo
Underworld
Zhang Qi suddenly looked up at the sky.

The auras of Di Jun and Tai Yi disappeared.

It wasn't a fall, but a more eerie sense of being completely replaced and erased.

He sighed softly; everything was exactly as predicted, down to the last detail.

Forcibly covering the present self with a self from other time states is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst, and it would be a violent blow to the foundation of the entire multiverse.

But precisely because of this... his most crucial piece has already been quietly placed.

Before the two emperors of the Eastern Heaven decided to face death, they signed a contract derived from the same scroll in Zhang Qi's possession, also named "Investiture of the Gods".

His work is essentially similar to the Investiture of the Gods by the snake, both being products that use fragments of the tower as raw materials to simulate the entire multiverse of the heavens, only with slightly different technical approaches and focuses.

Although his book is not as powerful as the previous version of the Investiture of the Gods, which was based on the Heavenly Dao of the previous era, it is functionally the same.

As

Now, the true Di Jun and Tai Yi have transformed into two perfect time bombs, lurking within the enemy's core system. They await only the opportune moment, a moment sufficient to completely overturn the foundation of the "Serpent," at which point they will unhesitatingly detonate themselves, dragging the two manipulated time-state avatars, along with the causal consequences they bear, into the abyss of destruction.

The pieces have been placed; all that remains is to wait.

……

Meanwhile, on the primordial continent.

With the snake's movements, the shadow of war had never been so thick.

It is no longer confined to the battles of a single city or region, but has transformed into an invisible and intangible yet omnipresent aura, permeating the air, seeping into the soil, and staining every inch of it.

Conflict, hatred, anger, despair... these intense emotions converge to form a powerful will.

Deep within the ruins of an ancient battlefield, a pair of eyes slowly opened.

Swords flashing, blood flowing like rivers, stars falling, the world wailing—all scenes related to conflict are endlessly created and destroyed deep within his pupils.

Lord of War, Luo.

His existence predates even the so-called innate saints. His active era spanned the beginning of chaos, witnessed the transformation of primordial chaos into the Dao, and personally experienced the evolution of the primordial world.

Luo had witnessed how primordial beings fought bloody battles in a cataclysmic event that swept across the entire Chaos Sea, ultimately evolving into primordial demon gods who wielded the power of concepts.

He had also witnessed the supreme power of Pangu separating heaven and earth, the separation of the pure and turbid energies, and the division of heaven and earth into black and yellow.

He had also witnessed how the barbaric era, in which giant beasts roamed, came to an end, how the flames of civilization among myriad races were ignited in the ruins, until the two emperors ascended the throne and ruled the world.

He even had a chance encounter, amidst the turbulent flow of time, to travel to a distant future that cannot be measured in years.

There, he witnessed countless wondrous creations beyond comprehension, conspiracies and schemes capable of manipulating people's hearts, and the boundless sea of ​​blood and eternal flames of war that burned countless galaxies.

His experiences are an epic of war.

Even he had never felt such a pure and immense atmosphere of conflict, as if it were about to drag the entire multiverse into war.

His gaze pierced through the earth's layers, revealing everything that was happening on the continent.

Humanity's fury and the greed of all races are pushing the concept of "war" to an unprecedented height amidst the intertwining of blood and fire.

Perhaps... this catastrophe is his chance to attain the ultimate path.

A spark of interest, like a spark, fell into the still, deep lake of his heart, which had been silent for countless years.

He slowly stood up, and the surrounding chaotic energy and war-like power automatically bowed to him.

He examined his body, which was made of concepts, and then, with a thought, began to reshape himself, imitating those fearless and relentless humans on the continent.

Bones grow, flesh and blood develop, and black hair grows loose.

In the blink of an eye, a tall, stern-faced man appeared in the spot. He stretched his brand-new limbs, feeling the fragility and reality of this flesh and blood body, and a smile of interest curved his lips.

"Then let me witness this grand... catastrophe with my own eyes."

……

Far from the hustle and bustle and tragedy of the human city, Gu and Jun walked on the desolate land.

Gu still carried the heavy stone axe on his back, and each step he took made the ground tremble slightly.

After delivering the refugees to the human city, his next task was to find his sister.

In his heart, his sister Xing was invincible. Her power far surpassed that of ordinary beings; even the most powerful saints of all races could never be her match.

Therefore, she must still be alive, somewhere on this continent.

He had intended to travel alone, but Jun insisted on coming along.

In his words, "Your strength paves the way, while my wisdom ensures we are on the right path."

Gu thought about it and felt it made sense, so he stopped refusing.

The two witnessed too many human tragedies along the way.

The slaughtered village, the abandoned ruins, the air forever filled with the stench of blood and dust.

That day, they arrived at a village that was still inhabited.

The village was surrounded by a simple fence, but it was more for enclosure than for keeping out wild animals.

At the village entrance, several members of various races dressed in magnificent armor were laughing and joking idly, while dozens of ragged, emaciated humans were performing arduous labor under their watchful eyes.

"Another bunch of parasites."

Gu's eyes instantly turned cold.

Without the slightest hesitation, he flashed and appeared in front of the several members of the myriad races like a ghost.

The leader was a wolf-headed, human-bodied member of the Myriad Races. Just as he was about to rebuke them, he saw a huge stone axe rapidly enlarge in his pupils.

puff!

Without any suspense, the head of that race member, along with half of his body, was smashed into a bloody pulp.

The remaining nobles of the myriad races were terrified and scrambled back. One of them, a powerful leopard-clan member who appeared to be their leader, pointed at Gu with a mixture of shock and rage, but dared not step forward. Instead, he roared at the enslaved humans:
"You lowly slaves! What are you all standing there for?"
Kill him! Kill him, and your food will be doubled today!

Those numb, hardworking humans trembled upon hearing the command. They slowly turned around, their empty eyes fixed on Gu, who held a stone axe and stood up for his kin.

Then, to Gu's incredulous gaze, they picked up stones, sticks, and even their own fists from the ground and shakily surrounded him and Jun.

When Gu saw such a sight for the first time, his mind went completely blank.

He couldn't understand why they would point their weapons at him when they were his compatriots and he was the one who saved him.

"See that? You idiot!"

Upon seeing this, the leopard nobleman let out a triumphant laugh.

"Slaves are slaves! Their lives and their will belong to us! Today, I will show you with your own eyes how these very people you want to save will tear you apart with their own hands!"

He raised his hand high, dark green battle aura gathering on his claws, ready to blast together the humans, Gu, and Jun.

At this critical moment.

A tall figure appeared in front of Gu without warning, blocking the leopard nobleman's attack path.

boom!
The dark green fighting spirit claws slammed into the figure's outstretched palm, but they were silently annihilated without even causing a ripple.

All sounds are silent.

The leopard nobleman's maniacal laughter froze, his eyes filled with horror.

He was a genuine third-tier expert, and his attack, infused with all his battle qi, was something that even experts of the same tier wouldn't dare to take head-on. Yet, the opponent actually... caught it with his bare hands.
This is a power that ordinary people cannot possess!

"Who...who are you?!"

He roared, his voice filled with bluster but his heart was filled with fear.

The tall figure slowly lowered his hand, turned around, and revealed a resolute face.

He glanced at Gu, who was looking completely bewildered, then at the timid humans, before finally fixing his gaze on the leopard nobleman, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Haha, me?"

"Just an ordinary human being passing by."

You can call me... Luo.
