Chapter 359 -359-Space-Time Confinement, Law Subversion
Kelly’s gaze was distant, as though it could see through layer after layer of the void.
She said softly, "Go. I might... come as well."
"You too?"
The little girl’s eyes were filled with astonishment.
"You also want to..."
"He will soon encounter a crisis."
Kelly smiled, and hidden within that smile was an indescribable resolve.
"If he cannot survive this crisis, he will be unable to break through to Divine-grade."
"And I am the only one who can help him. If he cannot succeed, then your wish will be nothing more than fishing for the moon in water."
The little girl nodded heavily.
"As expected! When you first came here, I already felt that there was some kind of connection between us in the unseen."
"I never thought our fates would be entangled this deeply!"
Kelly stroked the little girl’s head, her gaze turning toward Daniel’s location.
...
Beside the Time River.
Eternal Sage Kelly quietly watched the flow of the long river.
When she caught the moment Daniel was preparing to construct his sage rank, a cold smile tugged at the corner of her mouth.
"The critical moment has arrived."
Daniel constructing his sage rank was the most critical moment.
It was just unknown whose tribulation this truly was, and who would have to endure it.
The long thread of fate was finally about to be drawn tight!
...
Within the endless Chaos Starsea.
Several massive Primordial Supreme Treasure-grade Starships tore through the mist of the starsea and flew at extreme speed.
Synros stood at the bow of the foremost Starship, his gaze fixed upon the endless distance.
Suddenly, his brows furrowed, and a trace of solemnity flashed through his eyes.
"Is he finally about to construct his sage rank? The key node is coming."
His voice was swallowed by the winds of the starsea.
"Egoless Judgment is truly troublesome. If I had been one step later, I could only have watched helplessly in the face of this tribulation. But now... I already have a way to deal with it."
Jingle—!
A bell appeared before him.
The bell was half-transparent, like solidified morning dew. Golden radiance circled and flowed around it, emitting a pressure that made the soul tremble.
"With this Eternal Sacred Artifact in hand..."
Synros’s fingertip brushed across the surface of the bell.
"Even if I cannot completely break the deadlock, I can at least delay it for a little while. Once enough time passes, even an unsolvable deathtrap can be brought back to life."
He glanced at the bell hovering before him, his gaze burning like a torch.
"Go."
His low call was like both a command and a blessing.
The golden bell flashed slightly and vanished into the depths of space within the Endless Starsea in the blink of an eye.
At the same time,
within the Chaosverse, a bell glowing with golden light appeared.
From disappearance to reappearance, its speed was so fast that it was as though it had completely crossed the barrier of space-time, unbound by distance.
At that very moment, the bell gently swayed.
Jingle!
Jingle!!
...
The bell released clear, crisp sounds.
The sound was not loud, yet it seemed to pierce through space-time across the ages.
The sound transformed into countless golden runes that fell like torrential rain, scattering into every inch of the void within the Chaosverse.
Under the soaking of those runes, the Laws of the Chaosverse instantly underwent a fundamental change.
What did a change in the rules mean?
It meant an overturning at the root, at the level of the great universe will itself!
Originally, flowing river water could extinguish blazing flames.
But now, that principle was reversed.
The flames instead evaporated the river dry!
The eternal order of living beings being born, aging, falling ill, and dying could be completely overturned. Death could come before illness, illness before aging, and aging before birth.
The sky overturned, and the earth flipped upside down.
The very foundation of the entire universe trembled beneath the chime of that bell!
The Chaosverse welcomed an indescribable upheaval!
...
Synros’s Eternal Sacred Artifact bell crossed space-time and descended upon the Chaosverse.
As it jingled, the bell sound transformed into runes and sank into the void, immediately altering the Laws of the great universe will of the Chaosverse beyond recognition.
In truth, the instant the bell rang for the first time, the first ones to sense the change were those lofty great Oracle-grade beings.
They were constantly comprehending the pulse of the Laws of the great universe will, and changes to the Laws affected them the most deeply, like fish in water suddenly discovering that the sea had turned into wine.
Almost at the same instant, the great Oracle-grade beings of the Chaosverse turned deathly pale.
...
The Chaos Humans.
A Forefather who had meditated for millions of years burst out through the doors.
At this moment, his hair was disheveled, and he stood atop a mountain peak with a lost expression.
"How is this possible... The Laws of the great universe will of the Chaosverse have suddenly been changed. All living beings no longer have any path of advancement!"
His voice was hoarse and trembling, like a candle flickering in the wind.
"A mighty power from beyond the universe has completely blocked the path of advancement!"
"The terrifying part of this Strength is that it affects living beings of every single Rank, from the humblest apprentice to the lofty Oracle-grade. No one can escape it."
"To be able to alter the foundation of the universe will of an entire universe... This must be the work of an Eternal Sage!"
Thinking of this, the human Forefather trembled all over, his eyes filled with shock.
"Could it be that an Eternal Sage... wants to target the Chaosverse!?"
...
The Order Faction.
The three strongest T9 Oracle-grade beings gathered urgently, their expressions grave.
"The Laws have been tampered with. The shackles of Rank have already descended."
The first Oracle-grade said in a deep voice, his voice echoing as though from an abyss.
"Right now, all living beings in the Chaosverse can no longer take even half a step forward or break through their current Rank."
"And this is still far from the worst of it."
The second Oracle-grade took over with deep worry, his brows locked tightly.
"Measured by galaxies, the entire space-time has also been nailed in place. This means that even we T9 Oracle-grade beings cannot step even half a step beyond the borders of our respective starfields! We are like birds trapped in cages, able to see the sky but forever unable to touch it."
The entire Chaosverse had undergone a heaven-shaking transformation under the clear chime of that bell.
The third T9 Oracle-grade sighed repeatedly, his eyes filled with exhaustion and despair.
"There is another point—the energy of the Chaosverse has also been locked down. Energy has solidified like a frozen river. Even the most basic portal can no longer function, let alone advancement. Everyone can imagine what kind of profound disaster this will become!"
The Chaosverse had been bound tightly by three invisible chains.
The first layer: Rank Lockdown!
All paths of advancement had been completely severed, like an eagle with its wings cut off.
The second layer: Space-Time Lockdown!
The current space-time had been firmly anchored. No one could step even half a step beyond the starfield they were in, like prisoners trapped on lonely islands.
The third layer: Energy Lockdown!
The universe’s energy had solidified. Even the most basic advancement could no longer be carried out, like a river that had run dry.
Under these three layers of lockdown, the Chaosverse was like a giant beast bound by countless chains, struggling in vain yet unable to move.
The truth that the universe’s Laws had been tampered with would inevitably spread to every corner like wildfire.
A catastrophe sweeping across the entire universe was coming, and no one would be spared.
"Our most urgent task right now—"
The Oracle-grade of the Order Faction had solemnity filling his eyes.
"—is to find the manipulator hidden in the shadows. But only a sage who has stepped into the realm of eternity is qualified to tamper with the Laws of the universe will and play everything in the palm of their hand!"
Another Oracle-grade drew in a deep breath and added,
"An existence of that level can make stars shift with a single thought. Even if we find traces of that Eternal Sage, how much confidence do we have in making them show mercy?"
"Or perhaps we can still beg another existence of the same level to descend. Otherwise, the entire Chaosverse will become a prison!"
