"Time."

Li Yan said these two words in his heart.

He has always believed in one truth.

Time will tell.

Anything, after a long time scale, can be answered.

Maybe the result of the answer is a little unsatisfactory, but after all, it can break through the barrier and give an answer.

And at this moment, he also understood another truth.

Time can tell, and it washes everything.

Nothing in the world is set in stone.

Even if it is so-called unchanged, it will change over a long period of time.

No one in the world lives forever.

There is no one in the world who is eternal.

It is as strong as the supreme, supreme, and dominant, and if it is allowed to experience the ancient astral cataclysm, it will be difficult to survive that calamity.

Just as the prosperous and brilliant cultivation world civilization during the Ancient Star Boundary period was almost completely destroyed overnight.

Li Jian realized.

Again, smiling.

Does it all matter to him?

Unimportant.

What he wants has always been just a sign on the lifeline.

Maybe......

It's also time to go beyond yourself and set yourself a signpost.

Just as there is no eternal life in the world, and no one in the world is eternal, then ......

Let him be the first eternal, the first ......

The Eternal.

"To become an eternal is to start with the first step, mastering time."

And then......

Transcend time.

Li Yan smiled.

Immediately afterwards, he turned his gaze to Li Yunyao.

"Thank you."

He sighed.

Li Yunyao was a little confused, and even more overwhelmed.

At that moment, Li Yan stepped forward and touched her head.

This action made Li Yunyao's figure tremble slightly.

That feeling......

If she still maintained her flesh and blood, her body would inevitably become stiff at this moment, and she would not dare to move.

But for a moment......

She met Li Yan's "gentle" gaze, and her somewhat "stiff" body slowly relaxed after all.

It seemed that through this simple action, she had regained the familiarity she had in him for a while.

"The current astral realm is in a cataclysm, the environment is not friendly, even if there is a celestial light to protect your surroundings, it is still inevitable to be eroded by the power of the ruins, the only one who can avoid this situation is yourself."

Li said.

"Hmm."

Li Yunyao nodded.

Better do it than wish it done.

This is a truth that she has understood for all these years.

"I won't let you down......"

"Okay."

Li Yu directly took out the peak celestial light artifact of the Tower of Illusion: "Although this treasure is not helpful in terms of cultivation and comprehension, it has an immediate effect on improving your power control and perfect realm. ”

"It's ......"

Li Yunyao looked at the treasure that Li Yu took out, and suddenly looked surprised.

Now she is no longer a newcomer who has just entered the cultivation realm, or the astral realm.

The astral realm is vast, and each solar statue has a name and a surname, and during their Gaia period, they at least belonged to the elite class like martial arts masters.

The light of the sky further up is comparable to that of martial saints and star refiners.

High up, that is a big man that countless people can't get in touch with in their lives, and they don't belong to the same circle as ordinary star gods at all.

But the value of a pinnacle celestial light artifact, even if he sold a celestial light, he was far from worth the price.

Right now, Li Yi is actually planning to hand over this treasure to her!?

For a while, she pursed her lips and called in a low voice: "Brother...... I can't ......."

"You may feel ashamed, but this represents the high hopes I have for you."

Li Yi smiled and said: "I hope that after the end of this astral disaster, you can enjoy eternal life as the light of the sky, even if I go to a distant place one day, there is no news for several or dozens of years, but when I return, I can still see your smiling face, so that it will be in vain for my dedication and dedication over the years." ”

Li Yunyao looked at Li Wei, a little confused and a little puzzled.

After a while, he said, "Did something happen?" ”

Li Yan's palm brushed Li Yunyao's smooth hair, feeling this kind of caress that seemed to be in the mortal period, a kind of ......

The meaning of "alive".

Eventually, he said, "Maybe something will happen, maybe nothing will happen, but whatever the outcome, it's important." ”

"Important?"

Li Yunyao's eyes flashed: "Me? ”

"Hmm."

Li Yi nodded slightly.

"Why?"

Li Yunyao was a little surprised, but also a little frightened.

"I don't know."

Li Yan shook his head: "It's just a premonition." ”

Immediately after, he glanced at Li Yunyao, thinking of the enlightenment he derived from her just now, and said, "Perhaps...... It's about time. ”

"When?"

"Time."

Li Yi nodded.

He turned his head and looked into the distance, but his gaze was not focused, as if he had passed through matter, energy, space, and reached the essence of time.

"Time represents the measure of life, it is like a river, it is changing all the time, maybe one of our thoughts can cause a ripple in the river of time, so that the direction of the river changes, deriving a new tributary, when driving to a new tributary, there will be new ideas emerging, and then a new tributary will be born......"

He said in a somewhat inexplicable tone: "When countless tributaries are intertwined, densely filled with every direction of the scale of life, we will gradually forget where the main trunk of the river should have flowed, until it is completely submerged by the endless tributaries, and we will not even know where we should go and what we should do." ”

Li Yunyao didn't understand.

But she could know that if she really fell into that kind of environment that was submerged by countless tributaries......

It must be very powerless and desperate.

"So...... Brother you need to have a road sign...... A signpost that can anchor you to where the mainstream is, right? ”

Li Yunyao said softly.

"Yes."

Li Yi bowed slightly, looked at her, and gave her an accurate answer gently but firmly: "It's you." ”

"I see."

Li Yunyao nodded heavily, she stretched out her hand, and took this peak celestial light artifact: "I will cultivate the celestial light as soon as possible, achieve the ultimate life, and survive the disaster of the astral realm." ”

"Okay."

Li Yi smiled and nodded.

He didn't go to the Shenwu Emperor and the others again, and after saying hello to Qingyu, and in her flattered joy, he returned to the cultivation room.

When he arrived at the cultivation room, he did not cultivate for the first time, but quietly sensed his own changes.

Or rather......

Quietly experience a new kind of perception.

A......

Perception called the scale of life.

For a long time, he let out a heartfelt sigh.

"Time is the measure of life and all things......"

At least......

This is the definition of time in this universe.

"I thought that this bottleneck would be stuck for a while, and I was afraid that I would have to break through the life-and-death battle with the Central Golden Gate Supreme Heavenly Emperor, and surpass myself with the pressure of that battle, but I didn't expect it to ......"

At some point, a seed appeared in Li Yan's hand.

His eyes fell on this seed, but it was as if he had seen through the "lifeline" of this seed.

The next moment, he directly reached out and played with this "lifeline" to turn it from virtual to real, projecting it towards the seed itself.

In the process of this projection, this seed grew at an incredible speed in his hand, and in an instant it had grown into a brilliant flower.

The reason for this bright color is that this seed itself is a high-level spiritual object.

"This is time."

Li Jian once again realized himself.

The mind moved.

He had drawn his sword.

But he knew that he had not yet drawn his sword.

Drawing a sword is just a thought.

But when this idea is derived, the traces and scales of time have naturally taken shape.

Next, if he projects these traces and scales onto himself......

The next moment, he put his hand on Ruoxi's sword.

After the scale of this kind of thing was completely delivered, he obviously did not draw the sword, but he had already shot out a sword light, swept through the cultivation room, and accurately landed on a defensive star array at the end of the cultivation room, directly rippling a circle of ripples on the star array.

"As soon as the mind moves, the scale of life begins to evolve, and these evolution processes will be captured by the cultivator through the traces of time, and the stronger the understanding of 'time', the more perfect the evolution of the scale of life."

Li Yijing pondered.

He was deeply aware that if this ability could be carried forward......

No solution.

But why is the gap between the Heavenly Emperor and the Holy Emperor not obvious?

With this doubt, Li Jian quietly observed the traces left by his "life scale".

Finally, he realized something.

"This scale doesn't belong to me!"

Li Yan said suddenly.

This scale......

It belongs to this universe.

From the movement of the universe.

At this moment, he finally realized something.

There is an incredible connection between him and the universe.

This connection makes it impossible for him to completely disconnect his relationship with the universe no matter what he does.

And just now, it is through this connection, using the rules of the universe, that he derives his own life scale, and then presents the events that have occurred on this life scale through "time".

"This connection ......"

Thoughts flickered and flowed in Li Yan's mind.

Substance? Energy? Time? Space?

No!

No.

Neither.

Even the mysterious reincarnation is not counted.

This connection......

"It's cause and effect."

Li Yifu went to his soul and instantly understood the core key.

At this moment, the thoughts in his mind became clearer and clearer than ever.

"It's the cause and effect between me and this universe."

However, if one day does not cut off the cause and effect between the universes, the cultivator will never be able to truly break away from one universe and achieve transcendence.

He thought of the Supreme.

Isn't the Supreme throwing behind all the matter obtained from the astral realm to cut off the cause and effect of themselves and the astral plane!?

It's just that what they cut off is only the cause and effect of the astral plane, not the universe, and the astral realm is only the core of the universe, and it can't represent a universe, so that it ......

No one is truly supreme, and no one is truly supreme.

"Matter and energy constitute mass, which is carried by the light of the first avenue, time and space constitute space-time, and which is carried by the light of the second avenue, reincarnation...... and cause and effect, forming a cycle, carried by the light of the third avenue......"

Li felt as if there was a storm in the depths of his soul, constantly sweeping through.

There is a steady stream of inspiration for the third and fourth layers of the imaginary space method, and the epiphany at this moment continues to emerge.

"Only by having both mass, space, space, and causal cycles can we truly transcend! in order to truly cut off the cause and effect of oneself and the universe, and transform into a ...... By analogy with the individuals of the universe, they can truly 'live' and operate, and exist independently and immortally in the chaos of nothingness! ”

Eternal life.
