Life span plundered, I became a detective and achieved immortality

Qiankun universe, Qiankun ancient palace.

"boom......"

A roar that shook the universe exploded in the Qiankun Ancient Palace, and a dazzling silver light suddenly burst out from the body of the God of Time. The light penetrated his Moon Palace robe and intertwined in the palace like billions of silver lightning bolts, dyeing the bronze altar and the dome star map with a layer of brilliant silver light.

The most precious treasure of the Space-Time God Clan - the Space-Time God Seal suddenly rose from his body. The hourglass patterns on the surface of the seal flickered wildly as if they were alive. Every grain of sand turned into a miniature space-time vortex, and as it spun, it gushed out a force powerful enough to tear the void apart.

Then, an extremely clear silver line extended from the center of the seal, winding and moving as if it had life, pointing directly to a certain direction deep in the ocean of the universe. The light spot at the end of the silver line was bright and stable, like a suddenly lit new star, completely illuminating the area that had been silent for countless years.

Instantly, the Time God flung his eyes open. Within his half-lidded irises, the endless river of time and space surged endlessly, fragments of past and future tumbling and colliding in the water, splashing a cloud of light and reflecting the uncontrollable ecstasy on his face. The wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, deeply wrinkled by this intense excitement, betrayed no trace of age. Instead, they shone with an earth-shaking brilliance, as if he held the very existence of the universe in his grasp.

The next second...

The silver light around him became increasingly blazing, and the flow of time in the ancient temple suddenly became disordered. The bronze bell at the corner of the temple suddenly rang out with a roar that had lasted for billions of years, and then fell silent the next moment. This was the ultimate expression of the way of time, and even the eternal restrictions of the Qiankun Ancient Temple trembled. The mysterious symbols on the bronze beams and pillars shone dimly, as if echoing this unusual movement in time and space.

Qian Leng Divine Venerable suddenly turned his head and looked at the silver line pointing straight to the depths of the cosmic sea. Greed and burning passion surged in his eyes, as if he had seen the shadow of the opportunity for transcendence through the endless void. "Have you completely locked onto that human child?"

"The traces of time and space have been completely formed. No matter where the human child hides from now on, he will be nowhere to hide!" The Lord of Time smiled confidently. Unless the Lord of Transcendence takes action personally, he has lived for so many cosmic eras and has never met anyone who can erase the traces of time and space, including many perfect quasi-transcendence masters whose cultivation is not inferior to his.

Divine Master Qian Leng nodded solemnly, his knuckles tapping lightly on the bronze altar, creating crisp sounds, each one brimming with uncontrollable excitement. "The 'Dual Gods Reincarnation Formation' will be fully completed in a maximum of a million years. Once the formation is complete, the power of our two clans will circulate back and forth. Even if all the quasi-transcendent Lords of the five clans join forces to break the formation, they will have to pay a heavy price. Then, it will be time for us to take action!"

His eyes gleamed with brilliance as he stared intently at the point of light at the end of the silver thread, as if he could already see the opportunity for transcendence within his grasp: "A million years is but a blink of an eye for us."

"That's very good." The Lord of Time clapped his hands and chuckled softly. The Time and Space Seal on his palm trembled slightly with his movements, and the silver thread became increasingly solid. "Then let that human child live for another million years. It's a good opportunity for us to make some preparations to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

His tone suddenly darkened, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes. "This time, we must capture that human kid in one fell swoop. We must not make any more mistakes! If Old Man Hundong and the others find out, it will inevitably cause more trouble."

Qian Leng Divine Venerable nodded in agreement and turned to look outside the hall: "I will go and supervise the formation immediately, personally stationed at the intersection of the Zhou River, and ensure that the 'Dual God Reincarnation Formation' is completed within a million years!"

......

At the edge of the sea of ​​​​the universe, deep in the abyss of death.

Within the invisible boundary separating clarity and darkness, Su Mo sat cross-legged at the core of his ethereal body's natal ocean. The golden light around him had been retracted, leaving only a faint halo lingering on his body, illuminating billions of universes like a sleeping star cluster.

He slowly closed his eyes, his consciousness sinking into the depths of his soul. There, a silver line was emitting an increasingly blazing light—it was the trace of time and space that he had deliberately released from its constraints and accelerated its maturation.

At this moment, it is no longer a hidden danger that needs to be suppressed with great effort. Instead, it is like a precise signal light. Every flash transmits clear coordinates to a certain direction in the cosmic ocean, as if silently calling the "hunter" in the distance.

"Om..."

The trace of time and space trembled slightly, and Su Mo could clearly feel that its connection with the other side of the distant universe was becoming increasingly close, as if a pair of invisible eyes were following this trace, greedily peeping at his position.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, forming a meaningful arc, but there was no panic in his eyes, only the calmness of being sure of victory.

Nearly 1.2 billion years have passed, and he has made all preparations. Not only has he devoured and refined the Chaos Ape Ancestor, the four quasi-transcendent masters such as the Star Yuan God, and the twenty-two Kings of the Nine Heavens and the Sea, he has also upgraded his Yuan Dao Divine Body to the realm of minor success in the Nine Heavens, doubling his combat power. He has also deployed a large number of Kings of the Sea in the surrounding time and space. As long as they dare to come, even if they bring the transcendent treasures of various races, he is confident of winning the battle.

"I just wonder how many Quasi-Transcendent Lords the Space-Time and Universe Clan will mobilize this time." Su Mo twirled his fingers lightly, his eyes gradually filled with anticipation. "It would be best if more could come... Don't let me down."

......

Time flies, and eight hundred thousand years have passed quietly.

In the center of the cosmic sea, in the depths of the Qiankun universe and the space-time universe, strange blood light lit up at the same time.

The light penetrated the barriers of the two cosmic rivers of time and space, and illuminated billions of universes around it, dyeing them blood-red, as if the wails of countless creatures were intertwined in the light - that was the final mark of the two tribes nourishing the great formation with the essence and blood of billions of people.

Immediately afterwards, the crystal walls of the two cosmic rivers were completely shattered, and they truly merged together, turning into a new and huge cosmic river.

In an instant, above this new cosmic river, countless star shadows appeared and disappeared, and billions of regular patterns intertwined into rings, forming a huge formation spanning trillions of cosmic years - the Double God Reincarnation Formation, finally completed!

At the core of the formation, the figures of God Qian Leng and God Shi Guang stood side by side, with the quasi-transcendent lords of the two clans on both sides, their auras resonating perfectly with the formation.

"Alright! The Double God Reincarnation Formation is complete. Our worries are over!" Divine Lord Qian Leng suddenly raised his hand, and golden divine light condensed into a brilliant beam in his palm, seemingly piercing through the center of the new cosmic river. His voice was filled with excitement and enthusiasm that had been suppressed for 1.2 billion years. "It's time to capture that human child and reclaim the opportunity for transcendence!"

The Lord of Time nodded slowly at the side. The hourglass pattern on the Moon Palace robe was intertwined with the rules of the formation. He flicked his fingertips, and the Seal of Time and Space hovered in the center of the two clans' quasi-transcendent masters. The silver line on the seal pointed directly to where Su Mo lay in the depths of the Death Abyss. The light was as blazing as daylight. "Old friend, your clan and I will each retain three quasi-transcendent masters to guard the Zhou River to prevent them from being taken advantage of by the old man Hundong and his group. Everyone else, follow us. This time, we must capture that human child in one fell swoop."

Qian Leng Divine Master responded in a deep voice: "Good!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Time God waved his sleeves, and a silver glow surged around him. A powerful force of time and space swept over him like a tidal wave. The space at the core of the formation rippled, like the surface of a lake where a stone has been thrown, rippling countless fine folds of time and space.

Among the quasi-transcendent masters of the two tribes, three old men wearing Qiankun Taoist robes and three figures wrapped in the gauze of time and space stayed. Their bodies did not move, but their aura was closely connected with the newborn cosmic river. They turned into six monuments guarding the center of the formation, and their eyes vigilantly scanned the four directions of the sea of ​​​​the universe, guarding against any possible abnormal movements.

The remaining quasi-transcendent Lords, enveloped by the power of time and space, gradually became blurred. The divine light surrounding them merged with the ripples of space, like a drop of water merging into a river or sea. Together with the figures of Qian Leng Divine Lord and Shi Guang Divine Lord, they instantly melted into the void.
