Ironclad, but the dungeon is in Hell difficulty.

"To be honest, these are just transactions. There are very few people I can actually talk to. Most of them are just passing through. It's a cash-on-delivery transaction, and then there's no further contact."

Hanabi sat upside down on a small hill hanging from the ground, her twin ponytails cascading down as she played with a white and red fox mask in her hands. Her jade-like feet playfully swayed between her toes as she placed her red shoes with bells on them.

"That's true. After all, the world is bustling with activity, all for profit. Come on, let's unleash the energy within, and I'll try to find the path to nothingness."

Upon hearing Yu Tianyi's words, she raised her head, and intricate patterns lit up in her eyes, spinning like a kaleidoscope. Then she saw that all the faces floating in the space had opened their eyes.

"Wow, it looks a bit creepy at first glance... Found it. If we can use the Void Shadow that covers the entire starry sky, we should be able to establish a connection with the future."

He glanced briefly at the faces of those who were all looking at him, then summoned a wisp of his idealistic destiny that he could manifest and looked toward the void of destiny.

In an instant, all the colors around him began to fade, black and white intertwined, turning into an endless expanse of water flowing quietly. At the end of his vision, a massive black hole that obscured the background suddenly appeared in Tianyi's perception.

"Is this the perspective of those travelers on the path of nothingness? How peculiar."

The ethereal shadow tried to climb onto his body, annihilating all of Yu Tianyi's attributes—his body, his memories, or perhaps even his more fundamental understanding.

Subjective idealism gives rise to all things.

A dazzling golden light emanated from him; he himself was the foundation of all existence, and his philosophy was the essence of all things.

Particles and dimensions quietly emerged, forming a miniature cosmic structure around him. The shadows could only linger outside the golden light, unable to get any closer to Tianyi.

"The opposite of existence, the power of nothingness, is indeed terrifying. If one can draw upon this power of destiny, one's combat strength among the Commanders will be among the top."

He sighed slightly, but Yu Tianyi's own destiny based on his own mind was no different. Even if it was just a trace of power manifested, it was enough to easily resist the assimilation of the void.

However, here, his perception was suppressed to a very weak level, and he could only rely on pure 'sight' to observe everything around him.

What appears here is merely his perception; therefore, apart from Yu Tianyi himself, more complex products such as Yu Zhao will not appear along with him.

However, this did not stump him. Even though this place was a void, his status as a star god was enough to mark an anchor point within it.

Golden flames quietly ignited from his palm, adding a unique touch to this black and white world.

However, this action seemed to have attracted the attention of some beings, as Yu Tianyi saw ripples suddenly appear on the dark water.

The next moment, a figure whose body seemed to be made of countless nested machines and gears broke through the water and leaped out, wielding a black and gold longsword and slashing at Yu Tianyi in mid-air.

"This is why this thing appears in the realm of nothingness. Well, that makes sense, since its name contains the word 'nothingness.'"

He recognized the familiar figure immediately, and with a backhand clench, golden light converged into a huge blade that collided with it.

Imaginary Gods and Bodies: Nihilism.

This thing seemed to be a special individual born from the abnormal influence of imaginary energy. Its energy was almost identical to that in Yu Tianyi's memory. With the sound of gears turning, time stopped flowing.

What would be considered a deadly move by an ordinary person only caused slight fluctuations in his mental domain, but it couldn't affect Yu Tianyi within it.

"There was no reaction when I entered. It seems that my action of trying to set up an anchor point here triggered some mechanism."

To prevent any further accidents, let's leave first.

While fending off the uninvited guest's attack, he pondered the reasons for the emergence of nihilism, and then his eyes flashed.

Yi Jian: Ambush from Ten Sides.

In the stagnant 'world', the image of nihilism manifested as countless images in Tianyi's eyes, easily revealing the opponent's next attack intention.

By leveraging the power of destiny, he skipped the process and went straight to the result, further enhancing the power of the sword techniques he had previously created.

The golden dragon's spine traced an incredible trajectory, slicing away the nihilistic attack after dodging it.

The whole process was as if the other party was deliberately running into Yu Tianyi's blade.

The next moment, he severed his connection with the Void Destiny and disappeared into the void composed of black and white.

Crunch, crunch.

After Yu Tianyi's figure disappeared, the nihilist, having lost its goal, lingered for a while before lowering its greatsword and gradually sinking into the calm water, which was as still as the ground.

Suddenly, a crimson light flashed by, and the entire Nihilism was shattered into countless fragments in the next moment. It was killed before it could even activate its time reversal.

"What's wrong? Judging from your expression, did you fail?"

Seeing Yu Tianyi open his eyes with a somewhat solemn expression, both San Yueqi and Huahuo turned their attention to him, wanting to know what had just happened.

"I guess so. After contacting the Void Destiny just now, I entered that world made up of black and white, with endless water and a black hole at the end of the horizon."

It went smoothly at first, but when I tried to place anchor points within it, something went wrong. To prevent any accidents, I stopped and withdrew.

Yu Tianyi did not tell the two about her encounter with nihilism. Firstly, they were completely unaware of this construct, and secondly, neither of them were travelers on the path of nihilism, which could complicate the situation.

"It seems we have to find another way. The waters of the illusory destiny are too deep. After all, it is the opposite of existence, the shadow of the universe. I was too presumptuous before."

Chapter 232 Unexpected Events

"I just went to the Shence Mansion and looked at the documents there. Unfortunately, I couldn't directly flip through them, so I can only get a general understanding that things here are no different from the timeline where Fu Xuan is before this."

Yu Tianyi left the Shence Mansion and walked onto the streets of Changletian. This time, he did not bring Sanyue and Huahuo with him, but came to the Shence Mansion by himself to collect information.

Of course, even he couldn't sever the realm of idealism and make contact with the outside world; otherwise, he would be subjected to endless dimensional tearing.

"If that's the case, when I entered the Void Path before, I planned to release the anchor point, which meant I was out of this state. Perhaps the nihilism that appears in the Void is the manifestation of this backlash."

In that case, it seems that only through his own destiny path can he communicate with Fu Xuan in the 'future'.

Ruthless Divination Machine (Fu Xuan): I just asked Silver Wolf to optimize our communication line. Now the delay should be reduced to within 15 minutes.

Sheng Tianbanzi (Yu Tianyi): Can this kind of channel also be used to optimize the algorithm?

To be honest, Yu Tianyi really didn't know what Silver Wolf's Ether Editor could do. He never expected that it could even iterate and optimize his destiny channel.

Protocol Zero (Silver Wolf): That's natural. In the end, this channel is just another form of encoding. As long as I use EtherEdit to convert this data into a way that I can understand, I can modify it.

However, this involves many dimensions, but fortunately Fu Xuan was able to help me solve some of them; otherwise, it might have taken ten days to half a month.

She truly deserves to be called a top-tier hacker. With her Ether editing abilities, she can even be effective in areas that aren't strictly computer science. It's no wonder that Tianyi spent a precious jump qualification to recruit her.

"By the way, regarding the issue of the spacetime chain you mentioned, Fu Xuan has made some discoveries."

After a while, Silver Wolf even sent a voice message, although it was filled with background noise. However, it was not difficult for Tianyi to discern the sentences.

Then, Fu Xuan sent over an unusually blurry video. According to the accompanying description, this was the image she obtained by inputting the information she had gathered from Yu Tianyi into the Qiong Guan Array and then using herself as the target.

Even though the picture quality appears to be only around 360P, it doesn't prevent Yu Tianyi from recognizing the main characters.

The demonic star Ketu was seen flying in space; its massive mass caused even simple movement to slightly distort the surrounding space.

Flying around were massive fleets of Bu Li people, and the next moment, a hand far larger than the Demon Star suddenly appeared in the scene, pointing its index finger forward and turning the living planet that had been giving the Immortal Ship Alliance a headache into a firework in space.

"!!!"

It's not that the destructive power of this move is particularly terrifying; Yu Tianyi believes that if March 7 were to make sufficient preparations, he could also launch such an attack.

But if it's just a simple crushing blow with a finger, then that's a different story. And if he wasn't mistaken, this should be the power of the formation that Fu Xuan had mentioned.

"But that alone doesn't seem to be enough to require 'Taiyi' to personally go back in time to obtain it. So what He wants should be something that gives Fu Xuan this opportunity itself, whether it's a person or a thing."

After a moment's thought, Yu Tianyi realized that this thing was indeed very useful, and could be considered a trump card for any civilization. However, it seemed to be nothing special to the Star God.

Of course, one should go to the Fanghu Immortal Boat site to see such a grand event; it's better not to just wait around in Luofu.

After telling Hanabi about this on March 7th, the three of them hitched a ride on a Cloud Cavalry fleet heading to Fanghu to support them, and went to the main battlefield of the Third Abundant War.

Yu Tianyi had witnessed the power of a living planet firsthand, so when he saw the giant hand, powerful enough to blot out the sky, suddenly point out and turn the demonic star into countless fragments, he could feel the terrifying power contained within it.

"This is the Ode to Heaven's Will. Is He finally about to make His move?"

Suddenly, a grand and sacred melody quietly rose up, seemingly coming from the endless depths of space. Hanabi's expression immediately became solemn. As someone who had been active in various cycles of reincarnation since the 'Descendance of Order', she naturally knew that this was a sign of the descent of the Heavenly Dao.

"The notes produced by the vibration of celestial bodies in the universe in a special way, after absorbing the harmonious music, also bring a special effect to this hymn, making those who hear it unconsciously assimilate with order."

Since the target of this attack was not him, Yu Tianyi maintained his idealistic mind realm and planned to see how this time-space chain would end.

A giant purple eye appeared above the galaxy. It was so enormous that even galaxies seemed like dust in its presence. Yet, its image was reflected directly into the perception of all living beings through dimensions, so that even creatures without sight could 'see' its existence.

"So, do you find this kind of Heavenly Way troublesome?"

"It's alright, we probably won't have to use those big machines."

Yu Tianyi calmly answered Hanabi's sudden question, seemingly confident and not at all shocked by the strength that 'Taiyi' was displaying at that moment.

After all, he had already faced off against the opponent several times before (including the times he used 'War God Xing Tian' after his death), so he was naturally aware of this person's strength.

Earlier, Yu Tianyi did not realize the true use of 'War God Xing Tian' until he later discovered that the description of the cheat was not unfounded, and the powerful individuals summoned by this thing were indeed very powerful.

For example, on one occasion after his death, he summoned a female martial artist who could tear apart dimensions with just a few punches and kicks. One punch could annihilate a galaxy, and after his blood and energy erupted, he transformed into a black hole, distorting spacetime and blocking 'Taiyi's' escape route.

If it weren't for the limited duration, Yu Tianyi had no doubt that the opponent could easily kill 'Taiyi' on the spot. Of course, the existence summoned by this method cannot be accounted for, and the damage caused is not counted in his kill, eliminating the possibility of him cheating.

Otherwise, he could just keep using this temporary event to farm resources. Even if only one percent of the boost is retained, it would be enough to cause his strength to skyrocket after he has plowed through the entire universe.

"It has begun. The surrounding dimensions have come to a standstill. Is He intending to use this recurring spacetime chain to discover the true source of opportunity...?"

Before March 7th finished speaking, countless purple lights shone in that frozen space-time, dispelling the stillness of the scene.

PS:

The double artifact event is about to begin again. After four double events, I've gotten nothing. It's just another boring and tedious event of grinding for resources.

After the interlude in Chapter 233

"We're... back?"

In Luo Fu's memory space, three figures suddenly appeared, as if several frames had been removed from a scene.
