Then let them offer their loyalty!

A deafening roar, seemingly from the dawn of the world, resounded across the entire multidimensional world without warning!

In that instant, the six extraordinary phenomena that pierced through the heavens and earth each separated into a beam of light that converged towards the center.

And then, the six tiny beams of light slowly touched it.

The next second, a dazzling river, seemingly woven from countless fragments of time and lines of cause and effect, appeared out of thin air. Standing amidst the six extraordinary phenomena, it connected the past, present, and future of the entire multidimensional world!

In that instant, countless living beings and deities looked up, staring blankly at the long river that stretches across the ages.

A name silently surfaced in the minds of all living beings:

The river of time!

'Is this what Qiu Tu has been searching for?'

In the area where the six people attained enlightenment, Elena raised her head and silently gazed at the dazzling river of time, lost in thought.

Meanwhile.

As Elena was thinking this, Qiu Tu, who was advancing in the next round, slowly opened his eyes.

He glanced at the river of time before him, then looked up at the five people silently advancing amidst other phenomena, a thoughtful expression creeping into his eyes...

'It seems... I was right after all.'

'Attaining the highest level of enlightenment is indeed related to time.'

Thinking about this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but recall all his guesses and preparations over the years.

Just like he had analyzed with Zeki and Jasmine before:

Advanced God-Kings have already acquired authority through various means, theoretically reaching the pinnacle.

But why are there things like "the path to the highest" and "the supreme god-king"?

Furthermore, combined with the Supreme God-King's proof of eternal life, immortality, and coexistence with the world.

And then there's that mysterious "Millennial God King"....

Qiu Tu believes that the only possibility is that the path to the "Supreme Path" and the "Supreme God King" is not only aimed at the "present", but also includes the "past" and the "future".

In other words, once one attains the status of "Supreme God-King," one will exist forever, whether in the past, present, or future.

Even if there is some powerful deity or ability that can travel through time and space and change the timeline, the Supreme God-King will remain unaffected.

Of course, these were all just Qiu Tu's previous guesses, and he didn't dare to be 100% sure. But now, with the appearance of the "River of Time," Qiu Tu knows that his guesses have become reality.

However, even though he had figured out the secret of the Supreme God King long ago, there were still some things that Qiu Tu didn't understand.

For example... why was it he who became the Supreme God-King?

How did he travel through time?

Throughout the ages, there have been so many outstanding talents and heroes. Why was it he who ultimately ushered in this new era?

At this moment, just as Qiu Tu was thinking this,

The golden sun behind him, representing "order," suddenly shone a thousand times brighter.

Golden chains of order, thicker than mountains, shot out from it, like ancient golden dragons awakening, rushing into the vast river of time!

"Boom—!"

The river of time surged violently, as if in rebellion.

But those golden chains of order seemed to possess a life of their own. Some of them flowed upstream, imprinting Qiu Tu's existence into the distant past little by little; others flowed downstream, spreading his power into the infinite future.

At this moment, Qiu Tu's consciousness was also drawn by an invisible force, and began to rise and extend infinitely.

His vision pierced the barriers of the world, and his perception transcended the dimension of time.

He witnessed the birth of the universe, the origin of all things. He saw order emerge from chaos, and he also saw... his own life and the life of "Earth".

However, things were a little different from what he had imagined.

He thought that when he closed his eyes and opened them again, he had come directly from the "spectacular" explosion in the northern Myanmar industrial park to this world.

But when he saw the entire timeline of his life, he realized... in fact, the moment he died, he... was dead.

Aside from making a few minor news reports, the explosion he caused left no trace in the long river of time, or even in history...

No one paid him any attention, and time continued to flow forward.

After that... Earth's technology became increasingly advanced: AI, robots, controlled nuclear fusion, starships, lunar bases, Mars colonization...

As times progress and technology becomes more advanced, everything seems to be moving in a positive direction.

Until... humanity discovered that no matter how advanced its technology, it could not break the speed of light, nor could it discover other civilizations.

Humanity is like living on an isolated island in the universe, without any of its own kind...

But that wasn't the end of it. Soon, something even more terrifying happened: as human society accumulated more and more knowledge, it became impossible for a person to learn all the knowledge in a single subject from birth to death...

At that moment, all hope turned into despair...

Humanity began to fight amongst itself, wage war, and perish...

From God's perspective, Qiu Tu saw even more.

It turns out that there are not only human civilizations in the universe, but countless civilizations.

However, because the universe is expanding at a speed exceeding the speed of light, those countless civilizations, like humanity, simply cannot find other civilizations.

These countless civilizations are like dark, isolated islands in the infinite universe, flickering with barely perceptible light in the endless river of time.

After that, countless years passed—perhaps billions of years, or perhaps only hundreds of thousands—the structure of the universe began to slowly change, transforming from an infinitely distant and infinitely large world into a multidimensional and three-dimensional structure.

Spiritual energy began to revive, and the rules of the world began to be reshaped.

Thus, a cataclysmic event that affected countless civilizations and planets was born, gradually forming a multi-dimensional world structure with the "Ancient Continent" at its core.

Throughout this process, human civilization has been destroyed and reborn countless times. However, because it is on the edge of a multidimensional world, it has not been greatly affected.

Until several hundred years ago, when the human world once again developed into the information age, the medium-sized world of "Boundless Heart Sea" inadvertently approached the human world and began to trigger a fusion.

Thus... the human world began its first true cataclysmic awakening, and started rebuilding post-apocalyptic civilization.

Qiu Tu, a soul that didn't rank much in the "Origin of the World," finally regained the chance to reincarnate after countless years and came to this era.

He... became an orphan in the New Territories, a disaster zone in the human world, with neither any talent nor any family background...

And they lived in a daze.

It wasn't until the formation set up by Lao Bai to "capture" La Ri Luo stimulated Qiu Tu, causing a qualitative change in Qiu Tu's soul, that his memories of his past life suddenly awakened!

That's right, Qiu Tu didn't time travel, but rather... his memories awakened.

He was the one who slept with Qin Shuman, he was the one who "saved" Lao Bai, and he was also the one who grew up with Atai and Lao Ying...

Upon seeing this, Qiu Tu's face showed a hint of realization.

No wonder he always felt that his time travel was strange, and he also felt that Lao Bai's way of repaying his debt of gratitude was strange, and there were always some things that couldn't be explained.

So that's the reason for everything.

However... Qiu Tu still didn't quite understand after seeing this.

If he was truly just an ordinary soul, how did he end up like this?

Could it be... that he really is some kind of chosen one?

Just as Qiu Tu was thinking this, the river of time before him suddenly began to change.

It is no longer a river flowing straight ahead, but... it has split into billions of dazzling ribbons of light, branching infinitely like a tree diagram, full of endless possibilities.

Looking at those branches of the river of time, Qiu Tu's face showed a hint of realization.

Because... each of those light bands represents a possibility.

Some cities in the New Territories were completely destroyed, and Qiu Tu died in the war.

Some, like Qiu Tu, achieve nothing and die alone in misery.

In some cases, Qiu Tu died at the hands of Yan Chen.

And some... even the protagonist of the world isn't Qiu Tu...

Among those countless world lines, some worlds rise to glory, while others perish...

This represents countless possibilities for the future development of the entire world.

However, among those countless possible futures, there is only one path, a path woven from countless coincidences and inevitabilities, that leads to the ultimate conclusion where all six paths are perfected and the six supreme god-kings witness to it together.

In that instant, Qiu Tu understood completely.

He was never the protagonist, nor was he a chosen one.

The world never chose him.

He was just one coincidence among countless possible futures in the world.

In fact, since his birth, or rather... since the birth of the world, there have been countless protagonists, countless parallel worlds, and countless parallel timelines.

These main characters exist simultaneously in parallel worlds and parallel universes.

Only when six supreme god-kings, who are immortal and indestructible, are born will the other "worldlines" suddenly "collapse".

All those countless different "pasts" have "collapsed" into a single "past".

Countless different "futures" have been "collapsed" into a single "future".

Countless different "world lines" "collapse" into one real "world line".

This is "attaining the highest truth," realizing that one is both "oneself" and "the world"!

Thinking about this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but recall a theory he had heard in his previous life: the inevitability of the past.

In China's five thousand years of history, with countless years of war and chaos, the chances of a person surviving and leaving descendants are actually very, very small.

But... when you are truly living in the "present" moment, and you look back, you will know for sure that no matter how difficult or cruel history was, your ancestors went through thousands and thousands of years to finally bring you into the world.

And so it was with himself: his "time travel," his rescue of Zhao Ji, and his schemes against Lao Bai were all illusions until now, when he became the "Supreme God King," when everything was finally confirmed.

It is because of the "future" that all the "past" and all the "cause and effect" came into being.

"I see...."

Thinking this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but look at the ever-flowing river of time, his eyes filled with a complex mix of emotions and感慨.

He finally understood why he was able to become the Supreme God-King.

It wasn't because he was smarter than others, it wasn't because he worked harder than others, and it wasn't because he was lucky.

Rather, it is because, among the countless surging tributaries of the river of time, only this one is capable of supporting six supreme god-kings, or the fastest tributary to allow six supreme god-kings to exist simultaneously.

Only in this timeline, Jasmine orchestrated Zhao Ji's scheme, splitting her into two souls with the talent of "Supreme God-King," and sending them to reincarnation.

Only in this timeline did I happen to appear, save Lariel, and reconcile the two sisters, Lariel and Zeki, allowing Lariel to embark on the "Path to the Supreme" through her connection with Zeki.

Only in this timeline did Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji help Princess Hui escape from the Destruction Tyrant and even kill him.

In this single timeline, Qiu Tu suppressed Jasmine, using a calculated strategy to make Order Tianyan kill all the high-level God-Kings, and then using a conspiracy to force Order Tianyan to self-destruct, thus gaining immense fortune and the power of the gods, allowing the world to support six high-level God-Kings...

Thinking this, Qiu Tu's gaze seemed to pierce through the layers of mist in the river of time, reaching back a thousand years...

If this deduction is correct, then... he may still need to do some things to make the entire timeline complete and perfect.

For example... going back a thousand years to mentor Old Bai, allowing him to grow and eventually come to the New Territories to protect you a thousand years later...

For example, you could create a "golden finger" for yourself by hand and then give it to your past self...

Thinking this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but reveal a complex expression mixed with relief on his face.

"As expected... that Thousand-Year God King was myself."

Qiu Tu was so certain that he was the Millennium God King not only because of his previous guesses, but also because of another important reason.

That is... In these five years, besides comprehending the "Path to Supremacy", he also studied the "Cataclysmic Equation" with Zeki and Huiming.

With the help of the "Order Space", they not only cracked their own "crisis sense", "loyalty game" and "punishment divine realm", but also cracked Huiming's innate divine skill "shadow empire".

As a result, they discovered that Huiming's innate divine skill was indeed almost exactly the same as his "Dark Legion," with only slight differences.

This suggests that Huiming is most likely Qiu Tu's companion.

This is also why Qiu Tu said he had secured more spots when he discussed the identity of the Millennium God King with Lao Bai that day. (Chapter 995)

And now it seems that everything is exactly as he predicted.
