All-Heavens Game, the Strongest Player

Chapter 372 Speculations about the "Silence of the Long River"
"Not only here, but bosses in dungeons of level 10 and above should also be able to invade the River of Time!" Chu Xiu said, "From the very beginning, we've gotten many things wrong, such as the preconceived notion that the 'Game of All Heavens' created all the myriad worlds!"

In fact, that was his initial belief.

After all, games control the heavens.

However, in this instance, he discovered that this was not the case: the birth of the myriad worlds was far earlier than the game of the myriad worlds, and possibly even earlier than the river of time!
This does not refer to time.

For beings at a transcendent level, time is the most meaningless thing, practically non-existent.

This refers to the order.

The myriad worlds were first born in the endless space-time, and then the myriad worlds were born and destroyed. The scattered power of time gathered into a river and surged out from the Fountain of Time, thus forming the River of Time!
Therefore, the river of time has nothing to do with "spacetime" itself.

Endless space and time are there, not a river!

After that, Chu Xiu still doesn't know how the "Game of All Heavens" came into being in the long river of time, but he learned from the Ruthless Man that she had followed the scattered time and reached the outside world during the first "reincarnation".

And he searched for a period of time throughout the myriad realms, trying to find a way to bring his brother back.

He only returned to the world of Shrouding the Heavens after ultimately failing.

During that process, she went to the "Tianlong" world and was seen by Xiaoyaozi, who observed her Daoist essence being incorporated into the "Beiming Divine Art".

This allowed Chu Xiu to use it and break through the limits to unleash the "Devouring Heaven Demon Art".

According to the ruthless person, there was no "Game of All Heavens" at that time, and the evolution of the world, the birth and death, were all automatic.

Later, the ruthless man fell into a deep sleep for a long time.

She didn't know exactly how long it had been, only that the world she lived in had been reset many times by unknown rules.

Initially, there were some "time travelers" from places like Earth.

Later, there were some reincarnated beings, supposedly from a certain "main god," but they quickly disappeared.

Finally, and the longest-lasting, is the current "player".

However, players don't appear all the time; instead, they appear in large numbers only every so often. These intervals are so long that they cannot be measured in years.

During this time, even the world will be annihilated, and ruthless people will fall into a deep sleep.

In other words, the interval between each appearance of the player is longer than the time between the first awakening of the ruthless person from their slumber and the disappearance of the "main god".

A "millennium-old" outfit is not actually a millennium outfit, nor is a "ten-thousand-year" outfit.

The long river has fallen silent, and this is not measured in years.

In terms of time and space, a month outside can pass in a day here, or it can pass in a hundred million years; the time spans between them are not equal.

But the frequency can be felt.

In summary, it is a long period of annihilation, and the duration of this annihilation is far longer than the time players exist within the interval between annihilations.

And it has grown quite a bit.

It's not just a blink of an eye, but the difference between the birth and death of the universe!

"You mean that the myriad worlds were not created by the game of the myriad worlds, and this place is not a copy of the game of the myriad worlds?" Li Changhe asked.

He immediately realized what was happening.

With a dark expression, he said, "How do we obtain marks above the tenth rank? The rules of Heavenly Heart and Ascension have no effect on these worlds that don't belong to the Heavenly Games, right?"

Chu Xiu nodded upon hearing this: "No!"

This completely shattered Li Changhe's already despondent spirit!

"Then what's the point of playing?"

Without the ability to obtain the mark, he will never be able to advance to the nineteenth level. His path will be completely blocked, and his cultivation will reach its limit. When the river of time is extinguished one day, he will surely die.

What meaning does it all have now?
"Then what are you still struggling for? Waiting for me here for hundreds of millions of years, even if it's just a dungeon time, wouldn't it be better to just log out and see me?" Li Changhe said.

But he quickly realized what was happening.

He glared at her and said, "You're not going to tell me you have a way to deal with a bizarre Heavenly Dao that's comparable to a 'nineteenth-order', are you?"

Only those at the nineteenth level can deal with those at the nineteenth level.

Could it be that Chu Xiu has found a way to advance?
"Actually, the nineteenth level is just a term used in the game of the heavens!" Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "Its true name is 'Transcendent One'! And it's not a realm, but a path, a path from pseudo-transcendent to true transcendence!"

This is what he has come to understand through ninety million years of exploration.

To be precise, it was after Zhou Wushang discovered this that the two of them realized together that over the years, Zhou Wushang had used his "super comprehension" to reach the "above the Dao of Sacrifice".

She was the one who directly confronted the strange Heavenly Dao.

When she reached this level, she was also ranked "19th" in the game system's assessment, and could even view the "final dungeon" interface.

It seems that we have reached the limit of the entire multiverse game.

It should be said that we have indeed arrived.

Whether it's reaching the tenth rank with nine marks or completing the match advancement after the eighteenth rank, the ultimate goal is to reach Zhou Wushang's current level, which is the maximum level.

But what happens after reaching the maximum level?

It's completely useless!

The final version says "You can enter at the nineteenth level", but in reality, the key to opening it is the "Transcendence Mark". You can't even think about entering without clearing the Primordial Realm!
Ultimately, it's because ordinary level 19 is not worthy.

Whether it's breaking through dungeon worlds, climbing levels to advance, or obtaining the nine marks above the tenth rank, they are all merely the "threshold" to transcendence.

But in reality, they are in a "pseudo-transcendence state," or rather, a "quasi-transcendence state."

It's just that I've embarked on this path!

As for the end of this road, no one knows where it is, or even what to do next—this detachment can only be called "minor detachment".

Ruthless people transcend the world of "Covering the Sky," and Zhou Wushang transcends the game of all heavens.

That's it!

It can ignore the ten-thousand-year limit, but it still has no way to deal with the annihilation of the long river. At most, it can only hide in the tenth-order world and eke out a living.

But then you're no longer a player.

To be precise, it means that the possibility of further advancement in rank has been lost.

"And my 'Infinite Man' talent is true transcendence, utter and complete transcendence!" Chu Xiu said, "The idea of ​​infinite leveling up is just nonsense that the Heavenly Game can't analyze. In reality, I can infinitely improve my rank by acquiring Heavenly Marks!"

This surprised Li Changhe.

"So, you're even stronger than the unpredictable Heavenly Dao?"

"That's not the case!" Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "I'm currently only at the 'Sacrifice Dao' level. Due to my inherent 'transcendent' nature, I can't advance; I can only keep getting stronger. But by joining forces, we can suppress the strange Heavenly Dao without injury. There's hope of eliminating it, and we must eliminate it!"

Then, he paused for a moment, and then said, "Do you know where the annihilation of the long river comes from?"

Li Changhe shook his head upon hearing this.

"Power entities like the bizarre Heavenly Dao, which possess erosive and fusion properties and are chaotic and disordered, will continuously pollute the River of Time. When they reach a critical point, they will affect all the heavens and myriad worlds, causing all worlds to cease functioning!" Chu Xiu said, "Without the scattering of time, the River of Time will naturally stop flowing, and the 'Game of All Heavens,' which relies on the River of Time, will also completely shut down, causing all players below the nineteenth rank to perish!"
