Chapter 583: Advancement to Grand Mage (Part )
“If all time is stripped away, can I still call myself?”
His consciousness began to break down, his memory began to fade, and he saw hundreds of his "future possibilities" surging before his eyes. Some of them fell into demons, some died in wars, and some sat on the throne and died alone...
At that moment, countless "Future Starfalls" whispered to him: "We have failed. Becoming the Lord of Time is a dead end."
But he gritted his teeth, went against the trend, and raised his hand to condense the last ray of divine flame.
“You are not me. Because I haven’t made it to the end yet.”
The flames were cast into the void, like stars tearing through a dome that ignored space.
In the final stage of the breakthrough, Xingluo must "stitch" his own timeline - just like weaving broken threads back into the web of fate.
The price of failure is to be lost forever in the long river of time and to be wiped out as an enemy of the law.
He began to use his own will, magic power and the origin of the divine flame to reshape a "self of time".
He wrote the past with his past choices;
Use the faith that has not yet burned out to ignite the future;
And now - write the present with blood and unyielding will.
Above the entire ruins, a triple magic circle was spinning rapidly, with interlaced lights.
Xingluo raised his head and looked at the sky. At that moment, he felt that his eyes were not looking at the sky, but - seeing through time itself.
He reached out and grabbed a silver thread of law.
It is a divine thread condensed by the "power of time" and exists between the past, present and future.
Xingluo wrapped it around the Divine Flame Crystal.
--boom!
Above the sky, the flow of time in the entire world suddenly paused for a moment.
The magic tide surged in the opposite direction, and even the existence of light and the depths of the abyss instantly raised their heads and sensed the fluctuations of the "time layer".
"Someone... shook the main sequence?"
At that moment, Xingluo's body began to reorganize, his magic power surged dramatically, his soul was purified by the divine flame into a space-time magic core, and all magic circuits automatically arranged into a huge space-time magic array.
It was a magic circle covering the sky and the earth, emerging in the void at the end of the abyss, as if projected from the earliest time cracks in the universe. It was not attached to the ground, nor suspended in the air, but existed in a "sandwich" beyond dimensions, with each line as precise as a star track and each rune as ancient as the imprint of fate.
The entire magic circle was a multi-layered three-dimensional structure, like an inverted time and space clock tower - the bottom layer was a huge circular ring, translucent like crystal, engraved with mixed symbols of the ancient abyss and divine texts, those words were flowing slowly, and each flow caused the surrounding space to vibrate slightly, as if the whole world was breathing.
In the middle layer, there are twelve suspended light towers, rotating at high speed around the core, forming a huge star track chain. Each light tower represents a "time domain", mapping out twelve possible destinies: destruction, rebirth, betrayal, redemption, and sinking... The towers are engraved with symbols of ancient gods and demons, as if a being who judges fate is sleeping in each tower.
At the center is the "spindle core" - a clock-shaped structure constructed by countless timing devices, array nodes and light. It is neither a physical entity nor an illusion, but a "projection" of the origin of time. It is embedded with a crystal core that beats like a heart. That is the [Heart of Time] - the legendary source that connects all the world's timelines.
The entire magic circle was silent, but the whisper of time could be heard. As Xingluo approached, he felt as if his soul was being pulled by countless "selves", and each self was telling the direction of a different destiny.
In the array, stars were falling slowly, mountains and rivers were rolling up, and one could even see the interweaving of afterimages of the past and the future: him laughing and joking with Mo in the academy, the inevitable pain on the rainy night when Pandora left, and the planning of operations when the Moonfall Organization was first established... Those fragments became the "fuel" of the array, and were poured into the core of the main axis bit by bit.
Countless gears began to mesh, as if the entire magic circle had been waiting for billions of years for this moment.
His eyes turned into golden and blue pupils, like the hour and minute hands, and the mark of time appeared on his reconstructed skin.
Xingluo stood quietly in the wind of the abyss ruins. The entire sky darkened for a moment, then quickly recovered.
There was no thunder, no oracle.
But from today on, the entire plane will no longer have time to limit him.
He doesn't just walk in time.
He is an undeniable existence in the world.
He slowly looked towards the west.
"It's time to stop the sundial of the Holy See."
The Divine Flame Crystal was no longer a foreign object attached to his body, but had completely merged with his soul, body, and core to become a new existence.
A blue-gold magic mark slowly appeared on his forehead.
At this moment, the world responded to him.
The space around him automatically folded towards him.
The flow of time failed around him.
Even the sky began to twist slightly according to his will.
He slowly opened his eyes.
The world around him was still for a moment, then suddenly began to flow again - but Xingluo was no longer the same person he was before.
He stood at the top of time and space, and could not only burn his enemies.
He is the "master of space and time itself."
Xingluo stood up slowly. The altar had been burned to ashes. He was wearing a tattered robe, but behind him slowly spread a pair of illusory wings made up of time and space rifts and divine flames.
"It's done." He whispered, "Now I can break through the shackles of fate."
During the process of Xingluo's breakthrough, he used the Divine Flame Crystal to break up his body. Everything he had before was gone, and the new him was more powerful than before, an existence between matter and elements. He was not a magic elf, but he could easily mobilize time and space magic. He was not a paladin, but his speed and defense were better. Because in order to hit him, not only space must be broken, but time must also be penetrated.
Xingluo's consciousness awakened in it.
"I...reinvented myself."
He no longer has a heart, but the Divine Flame Crystal is his heart;
There is no more blood, but magic is his blood;
He no longer has human flesh and blood, but his existence itself is a crystallization of magic.
This is the new form——
The soul body condensed by high-density divine flame magic can independently control its form, energy flow, and spatial position, and is no longer subject to the physical limitations of traditional dimensions.
His eyes opened, but there was no pupil in his pupil, and there seemed to be a rotating hour hand. When his fingertips extended, the space was automatically squeezed and distorted. He no longer needed language to release magic, his existence was a spell.
Xingluo stretched out his hand and clenched it. All the magic chips, soul fragments, space marks, and time scattered around him returned to his body. His body finally solidified completely in the darkness, like an elemental body constructed by space and time.
——"Starfall, complete the remodeling."
But that alone is not enough.
He was still out of bounds.
Although he was reborn at this moment, he had not yet touched the barriers of the rules of the main material plane. He still needed to open a door - to the main material world where war was raging and his companions were still waiting.
The core fragment of the Divine Flame Crystal vibrated slightly at the position of his heart, as if in response.
"Use my will to connect the gate."
He closed his eyes, and a magic mark appeared on his forehead.
This is the fragmented knowledge he seized from the "depths of the origin of magic" when he broke through time and space - using the soul as the key, the divine flame as the medium, and himself as the door.
He began to chant.
Not language, but the resonance of consciousness.
The magic flames rose to their peak, and Xingluo's figure turned into a silhouette of the flames, and the silhouette turned into a vortex, slowly advancing towards the weakest part of the void.
That is the "barrier" of the main material plane.
"open."
Xingluo whispered softly and suddenly punched out.
With one punch, the entire void wall was torn apart!
The space roared, light poured out like a torrent, the breath of the main material plane rolled into the darkness like a raging tide, and he saw... a familiar sky, a familiar continent, familiar war and blood? .
"I'm back.!"
He took a step forward, and at that moment, all the laws came to a standstill.
In the main material plane, a star suddenly fell, the earth roared, and the clouds burned.
A figure made up of the divine flames of time and space slowly walked out of the flames, clad in a robe of magic flames, with time light particles floating around him. With every step he took, the real space trembled slightly.
Starfall - the body reshaped by magic returns to the main plane!
This is not a resurrection.
This is Nirvana.
He is no longer the Xingluo of the past, but the master of time and space, a thorn in the side of the God of Light.
