When 'God' Decides To Start Over

Chapter 1087 413: A Glance at the Universe (Part 3)

Although he had anticipated that Li Boyang wouldn't die so easily, he hadn't foreseen that it would ultimately be this kind of situation.

Li Boyang shook his head and said, "Tang Tianzhen turned out to be the founder of the Innocent and Guileless Stream, which was beyond my expectations, forcing me to adjust my plans. If I were to engage in a life-and-death battle with him, the outcome would be uncertain, and even if I won, it would likely come at a great cost, making it difficult to continue my previous plans. Moreover, I have no guarantee of defeating him, so I could only take a risky gamble, abandoning my physical body, leading him to believe I had died. Even he couldn't have imagined I would abandon my own body, as it is my foundation in the main universe. Anyone else wouldn't take such a risk. Fortunately, I won the gamble, and the victory was even greater than I had imagined."

"Spiritual Sense was originally my weakness, but now, using the Spirit Suppressing Stone as a foundation, I have merged with the Spiritual Universe to reshape my body. Even if Tang Tianzhen is resurrected, his Spiritual Sense cannot compare to mine. This body is even more perfect than my previous one, and I have you to thank for that," Li Boyang said.

"Now that you have such a perfect body, can you stop here?" Li Xiu asked, looking at Li Boyang.

Li Boyang sighed softly, "I wish I could stop, but even with such a perfect body, without the key, I cannot return."

"So, does that mean our battle is inevitable?" Li Xiu truly didn't want to fight to the death with Li Boyang if it could be avoided.

"There is no other path to take," Li Boyang shook his head.

"Tang Tianzhen mentioned you have emotional ties; is that true?" Li Xiu looked at Li Boyang and asked.

"Everything I do is for the purpose of returning to the main universe," Li Boyang said indifferently.

Li Xiu took a deep breath, looked calmly at Li Boyang, and continued, "Since that's the case, I'm relieved."

"What do you mean by that?" Li Boyang asked.

"If you had emotional ties, I wouldn't be able to firm up my resolve. Since you do not have any, I can be at ease," Li Xiu slowly explained.

"Even at this stage, you still have the heart to think about so many things. Tang Tianzhen was right; you think too much. Even if you go there, it will be your fatal weakness, and you probably won't get far," Li Boyang said lightly.

"I don't consider thinking a lot to be a bad thing," Li Xiu said calmly, "After all, I am just an ordinary mortal who never intended to live my life for one sole purpose. A colorful Mortal World is my true pursuit."

"I'm sorry, but I can't fulfill that wish of yours," Li Boyang sighed, "Is there any other wish you have? Anything except that, I can help you achieve."

"I don't have a wish, but I do have something I want to clarify," Li Xiu said, looking at Li Boyang.

"Speak."

"What's the origin of Zizai?" Li Xiu stared at Li Boyang and asked.

Li Boyang frowned slightly, "The child from the Jade Gate? You should ask Consort Lan about that; I don't know her origin."

"I asked her already, and she doesn't know Zizai's origin. I thought you knew, but it turns out you don't either," Li Xiu felt a stir inside, but showed no expression.

If Li Boyang truly doesn't know Zizai's origin, that means Jiang Lanling's vision of the future hasn't occurred yet.

Currently, Li Boyang doesn't know that Zizai can help him open the Gate of the World. Right now, Li Boyang still only sees Li Xiu as a key.

"The so-called future of the Time Tunnel is ultimately just a deduction of what could be, not the actual future. As long as I can stop Li Boyang here, I can change the course of the future, and those futures I saw might not occur," Li Xiu had many thoughts running through his mind.

"I really don't know the child's origin, but it's not hard to speculate. The child should be brought out by Consort Lan from the Time Tunnel, though I'm not sure how she managed to bring that child out of the Time Tunnel. Theoretically, the people in the Time Tunnel are illusions, and it's impossible to bring them out without the aid of a Spirit Suppressing Stone. If you want to know the detailed process, I can have Consort Lan explain it to you," Li Boyang said calmly.

"No need, whether I know or not isn't important now," Li Xiu naturally wouldn't let Consort Lan come here, as that would only let Li Boyang discover Zizai's origin, which would be of no benefit to Li Xiu.

While Li Xiu spoke, the Light Energy within him began to gather. His Spiritual Sense was heavily exhausted, but Light Energy wasn't depleted much, as his battle with Tang Tianzhen was purely a battle of souls.

Even without Spiritual Power, Li Xiu was still a Cosmic Level powerhouse.

"You managed to defeat Tang Tianzhen because your Spiritual Sense is extraordinary, able to defeat Tang Tianzhen, who practices the Innocent and Guileless Stream. Even I didn't expect that," Li Boyang looked at Li Xiu and said calmly, "Now I possess the Spiritual Force formed by your Spiritual Sense, while your Spiritual Sense has been overly exhausted. You have no chance left. Those powers of yours were useless against Tang Tianzhen, and they are equally useless against me now."

"I don't believe that," Li Xiu said, then directly punched toward Li Boyang.

This punch was imbued with the peak power of the Ultimate Light. At the moment the fist was thrown, the space began to collapse, layers of space shattering like glass, forming a heavenly scar that shot toward Li Boyang.

The strike that seemed to penetrate the heavens and earth suddenly turned into an illusion in front of Li Boyang.

"When the Innocent and Guileless Stream reaches its peak, all things under heaven are but illusions, and only I am true. To me, everything in the world is just a mirage, unable to harm me in the slightest," Li Boyang said as he reached out a hand to catch Li Xiu's fist.

"All things are illusory... that might just be your fantasy..." Li Xiu's eyes were cold and sharp, a Light Pattern suddenly shone on his wrist, and the white bracelet instantly became thousands of Light Threads, enveloping Li Xiu's body.
