Chapter 1063 Breaking into the River of Time

"Gohan, keep quiet and focus on this battle."

Vegeta responded to Goku's words on his behalf. Vegeta crossed his arms, his brows furrowed, clearly also feeling unsettled. "Master Lu Li's level is far beyond ours. Remember your inner resentment; it will help you become stronger in the future."

Clearly, under Lu Li's guidance, Vegeta has completely distinguished himself from Goku, and he no longer believes that Goku's purity is the root of martial arts power.

Even if he has distracting thoughts, those thoughts can still be the driving force for him to become stronger. Just like Gohan, it is because he has a kind and righteous heart that he wants to protect that he can transform into Beast Gohan at the critical moment and comprehend even greater power.

He was the same. Even though he couldn't intervene in this battle, he still engraved this unwillingness in his heart and set the power he saw before him as the goal he would pursue for the rest of his life, giving him great motivation.

"But... Vegeta, as Lord Beerus said, what if the Grand Priest and the Omni-King are truly inexhaustible, and Lu Li runs out of stamina?"

Wukong scratched his head and said, "Speaking of which, why doesn't Lu Li summon his counterpart from other timelines like his opponent does?"

"That's probably impossible."

Beerus said, looking at Lu Li with a slightly meaningful gaze, "The High Priests have mentioned before that Lu Li is probably an anomaly; he only exists in our time and space."

"Huh? Wouldn't Lu Li be at a huge disadvantage then?"

Wukong said in surprise, "He really can only fight alone."

"What's this about losing out? Perhaps the reason he can become so strong so quickly is because of his uniqueness. If there were many Lu Lis, perhaps he wouldn't be so strong."

Beerus, after all, is a God of Destruction who has lived a long time, and he understands better than Goku and the others. "The worst thing right now is the problem of parallel worlds."

"What do you mean?"

Someone asked, puzzled.

Do you remember the laws governing the creation of parallel universes?

Beerus said, "What was that apprentice Supreme Kai's name again?"

"Zamasu."

Vegeta answered from the side.

"Yes, it's Zamasu. Didn't Lu Li already kill one of him back then? So why is the future still the same?"

Beerus asked, "And I had Whis check the records. Vegeta's son from the future world also came here once, but their world hasn't changed, right?"

"right!"

Wukong suddenly realized something; he was sometimes quick to react in these situations. At the same time, he immediately frowned, "Going back to the past doesn't mean the future can't be changed..."

Vegeta, standing nearby with a somber expression, said, “It seems so. Back then, Trunks’ world was ravaged by Androids. We dealt with the Androids, but he still had to go back before he could defeat them. It was the same with Zamasu. Mr. Lu killed one Zamasu, but there will be another Zamasu in the future.”

"What Lord Beerus means is that when the future or a third-party variable interferes with the development of the world, even if the past or present is successfully changed, the future that has already occurred will not change. Our spacetime will separate and embark on a new path, while the original future will continue to exist..."

Gohan analyzed the situation, then his expression changed drastically. "Oh no! Does that mean that, theoretically speaking, Mr. Lu has no chance of killing the King and the Grand Priest?!"

The others also felt heavy-hearted after hearing Gohan's words, and roughly understood what he meant.

Simply put, Lu Li is currently using the power of the Root to trace back and kill the Grand Priest and the Omni-King of the past. This is also a third-party external force interfering with the past, which is no different from Trunks returning to this side.

Suppose we draw a timeline and divide time into points from 1 to 10. They are currently at position 10. Lu Li's sword kills the High Priest and the Omni-King who are at position 6. Will the High Priest and the Omni-King at position 7 disappear?

No, it will cause the world to split again, creating a world without the Grand Priest and the Omni-King starting from position 6, and a world with the Grand Priest and the Omni-King starting from position 7.

In countless fragmented worlds, new timelines will emerge. In those worlds with Grand Priests and Omni-Kings, countless Grand Priests and Omni-Kings will exist in these new timelines.

"its not right"

At this moment, Tianhuang, the pioneer, scratched his head and said, "Gohan, right? You're wrong. Lu Li isn't that stupid. Couldn't he kill his way down from upstream? If we trace back from the most recent timeline, even if a parallel world is created, there won't be an Omni-King or a Grand Priest in that parallel world, right?"

"Hmm, that seems to be true."

Wukong agreed from the side, looking at Tianhuang, "I didn't realize you were so smart."

When Wukong praised him like that, Tianhuang didn't know whether to be happy or angry. He simply took out a new banana from his storage space and started eating it.

"No, Tianhuang, you're oversimplifying things."

However, just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Dao Yan poured cold water on their hopes, saying, "As Beerus said, Lu Li's current killing method is indeed inexhaustible."

"Why? Brother Prisoner isn't stupid, is he? He knows the root of things."

Tianhuang was a little annoyed, but he had to admit that Daoyan seemed to be a tiny bit smarter than him.

"It's not that simple. You've overlooked the prerequisite: Lu Li's initial target wasn't actively chosen by him."

Dao Yan explained.

"What do you mean?"

Tianhuang disliked Daoyan for not explaining things clearly, and Wukong and the others also looked at Daoyan.

“Lu Li’s root ability now uses spacetime correlation. There is a distinction between the two: spatial correlation means killing the Grand Priest and the Omni-King who have already descended into this universe, while temporal correlation means tracing back in reverse.”

Dao Yan explained, "Even if Lu Li's computing power is strong, it is impossible for him to calculate the transmission of each one in detail when faced with such a huge number. He must have a set of filtering methods."

"Damn, I still don't understand. Can't you speak like a human being?"

Tianhuang became somewhat agitated. "Simply put, when Lu Li traces back upstream in the river of time to kill enemies, he can only start with the Grand Priests and Omni-Kings in front of him. How do you know that these Omni-Kings and Grand Priests are from the modern era?"

Dao Yan's single sentence made many people understand what was going on.

Although these high priests and the Omni-King look the same, some may be from 18 years ago, a combination that is very close to the present, while others are from five billion years ago. How can you tell them apart?

After killing them with one strike, and then tracing back and killing them along the timeline of the various high priests, problems will arise.

For example, if Lu Li kills the High Priest in time phase 5, and assuming Lu Li's damage is powerful enough to trace back to the earliest High Priest and Omni-King in this timeline, then the High Priest and Omni-King from time phases 1-5 would all be killed.

However, from the time period of 6 to 10, a new parallel world was created, in which the Grand Priest and the Omni-King are still alive.

At first glance, it seems that the number of Grand Priests and Omni-Kings has decreased overall, but in reality, if Lu Li were to strike a Grand Priest or Omni-King starting from stage 6, a parallel world with a time period of 7-10 would be created.

These are just examples. In reality, the breakdown of time is much more exaggerated, and Lu Li's damage was not so violent that it could be traced back to the source. He may have just killed the Grand Priest and the Omni-King in a few seconds with one strike.

This could lead to situations where Lu Li's single strike creates even more parallel worlds.

The combined number of Grand Priests and Omni-Kings in these parallel worlds actually exceeded the number Lu Li had before he killed them; in other words, the more he killed, the more they multiplied.

The Grand Priests and Omni-Kings of the past sensed the terrifying anomalies in the future timeline. The Grand Priest was a clever man; if he realized that he was being massacred and defeated, he would even prioritize a strategy of having himself, who was closer to the source, fight against Lu Li. This way, after his death, a parallel world would be created where the Grand Priest and Omni-King would exist for billions of years.

If such parallel worlds increase in number, Lu Li will simply never stop killing.

"Hahaha... Lu Li, don't you understand? You cannot defeat us. This is true infinity!"

At this moment, a high priest who had traveled across time and space mocked Lu Li, admitting that he was indeed no match for Lu Li in terms of combat strength, but that Lu Li simply couldn't kill them all.

This is different from the split of Zamas; under the spacetime mechanism, they theoretically seem to be truly infinite.

"Yeah."

Lu Li showed no sign of panic. Instead, a cruel smile appeared on his face, which the High Priest found quite cruel. "Doesn't this mean that I can make you feel the pain of being killed endlessly?"

The High Priest's face was grim, but before he could retort, Lu Li's blade arrived. Not only was he killed, but the power of the Root also spread, annihilating more High Priests and the Omni-King.

Parallel worlds? Time and causality? Infinity?

Lu Li stood at the center of heaven and earth, his tone disdainful, "I don't believe there are truly immortal beings in this world, nor do I believe there can be infinitely divided parallel worlds. If the source of the world is divided again and again, can your true spirits still be rekindled!?"

As he spoke, he swept his blade across the battlefield, unleashing his primal soul intent once more, slaying a large number of Omni-Kings and High Priests—truly an unparalleled mowing-down-grass display.

Lu Li's soul intent surged, and the Martial Scripture resounded as it was activated, causing his blood and qi to tremble in the universe. He had no opponents in front of him, and he was striding through the universe as if ascending to heaven.

As Lu Li took a step, it was as if the river of time was trampled beneath his feet. Wukong and the others could even vaguely see time flowing beneath Lu Li's feet, and could see scenes from other dimensions.

At the same time, Lu Li's Demon-Capturing Blade was positioned beside him. At this moment, the ominous black blade suddenly emitted a dazzling white light. This was the power of faith that all beings of the twelve universes had gathered towards Lu Li over the years, all of which Lu Li concentrated on the blade.

"This strike is for all living beings in the universe!"

Lu Li exhaled, and under the horrified gazes of the many high priests who had just arrived in this time and space, Lu Li's blade slashed towards the river of time.

boom--

In the next instant, a blinding light flashed, and the black and white blade light seemed to sever time, as if everything was about to be annihilated.

"Lu Li, you've actually reached this level!?"

The high priest's voice was filled with horror, for he saw that as Lu Li drew his sword, the River of Time and Space began to tremble, and all the branch lines were reassigned to the main channel in the tremor.

To the High Priest, this was simply unimaginable, as it required an extremely profound understanding of the laws of time.

After the single slash, all the dense branches along the river of time disappeared, leaving only six lines, which were already relatively stable parallel worlds.

Lu Li's strike reversed time and causality, bringing all those parallel worlds into the main path. The people whose true spirits were originally separated were reunited and, guided by the source, became whole again.

Rumbling--

An endless sea of ​​lightning descended from the void. This time, it was not that the Heavenly Dao was actively targeting Lu Li, but rather that the causal force Lu Li was bearing was too great, so that a tribulation of lightning descended on its own, in an attempt to correct certain things.

But Lu Li didn't care about these lightning tribulations at all. He walked through the sea of ​​lightning as if he were riding the wind and waves. So the sea of ​​lightning became a stage to illuminate his figure. The ten thousand bolts of lightning reflected each other, and Lu Li's figure rose against the river of time, just like an emperor walking on the red carpet of coronation.

After Lu Li unleashed his slash, the power of faith on the Demon Prisoner dissipated. He had just used the power of faith to unleash a slash that corrected spacetime, which was already the limit of that power, considering that he had only been in this spacetime for a little over ten years.

But Lu Li's actions did not stop. If he was like a god with his faith power shining brightly just a moment ago, he was like a demon descending to earth at this moment.

A huge, eerie black phantom rose behind Lu Li, roaring silently at the river of time. Excessive black matter surged from Lu Li's body, black demonic patterns clung to his face, and his charm attribute plummeted to rock bottom, even the title of Human King couldn't save him.

Even Vegeta and the others who were familiar with Lu Li felt that Lu Li was like a demon god representing fear.

The terrifying aura emanating from Lu Li seemed to be able to travel through the river of time and reach different times and spaces.

At that moment, all living beings in the river of time, regardless of time or place, felt a sense of suffocation.

Even the Grand Priests and the Omni-Kings, even those who didn't yet understand the future, all felt a chill run down their spines.

The next moment, Lu Li stepped out and actually entered the River of Time. He truly traveled through time and space, looking down at the river, and began to strike at the Grand Priest and the Omni-King from a high position.

The moment the Demon-Slaying Slash was unleashed, the entire River of Time was stained with darkness. The excessive amount of black matter seemed to be even more polluting than Lu Li had imagined. In just an instant, spacetime was distorted in the darkness, and even the source of the world could hardly break through the limitations of this matter.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Li raised one hand, and a ball of shimmering white mist appeared in his hand. This was the World Source he had obtained by killing many Grand Priests and the Omni-King.
