Book 8: Chapter 131: Ravages of Time (3)
“This was the motivation for the Second Disciple’s rage. It was even more angered by the Heavens than its Senior Brother. It wanted everything to crash and burn. Working within the confounds of the Heavens wouldn’t work, so it would break them and crush everything.
“The Second Disciple knew how its Senior Brother felt all this time. Those waves of pain, that endless cycle of depression, it felt them all. This was the ability of the True Empath.
“However, unlike its Senior Brother, The Entity succeeded. Maybe not in building a new Heavens, but it most definitely succeeded in crushing all that was.
“So, if you want an answer for how I made it here despite the Timeless Library being a person and not a treasure with its own rules, we have none other than The Entity to thank.
“The structure of the Heavens was completely shattered under its fists. As a result, the Heaven’s Child lost most if not all of their strength. In the end, the true function of the Timeless Library shone through.
“The Timeless Library is simply a vessel that can withstand the ravages of time. After countless travels, its accumulated timeless and spaceless qi was at a ridiculous level. In those moments, the so-called random time teleportation became a reality. Except this time, it was far different.
“In the past, the future was infinite, but the past was finite. However, because the structure of the Heavens was shattered, there was only a finite past, there was no longer a future. As a result, it became impossible to teleport forward along the timeline, which meant that only going backward was possible…
“I took advantage of this.
“At first, I went too far back. It was random, after all. However, I had been prepared for this possibility. Much like Sister Amphorae, I sealed myself away to appear at the appropriate time. But, this was only after I cultivated to the realm of Higher Existences. If I didn’t reach this level, my mind wouldn’t be able to withstand such a long sleep.
“I weathered many dangers and thankfully finally succeeded… I then put myself to sleep and awoke no more than 50 years ago.
“When I awoke, it took everything I had to not seek out Little Husband. Instead, I searched long and hard for a suitable disciple. In the end, I settled on a little girl named Rose. You should know her a small bit, Little Husband. She was the one who prepared your disciple robes for you.” Jade lightly smiled.
“However, this was only a small bit of my task here. Taking on Little Rose is only meant to help my current timeline self grow into an expert who can help Little Husband. But, my true purpose is to accelerate Little Husband’s growth.
“In my timeline, you stood above the whole of the world, and I have no doubt that you can do it again. The only reason you lost is because you gave The Entity too much time… Because your cultivation was sealed for far longer than you expected, many matters were delayed.
“Little Husband, you must grow strong enough to battle The Entity before it completes its absorption of your Universe. Us… No, everyone, underestimated just how important our home universe was.
“It was meant to be a center for the rebirth of the Mortal Plane. But, due to The Entity’s interference, it never fulfilled the purpose it was originally intended to have.
“The Entity completing its absorption is why it was able to ignore the suppression of the already weakened Heavens and erupt with strength that shouldn’t have appeared on this Mortal Plane.
“Though I am quite shameless, the purpose of this Nine Cloud Yang aphrodisiac is to accelerate the breaking of Little Husband’s seal.
“If this seal is broken, you’ll be able to do many things. You can control that snake Elder Nova instead of allowing that rat to fester. You’ll be able to rebuff Head Void and save what will become the base of your foundation. You’ll be able to enter the Golden Flame Mystical Realm and take the Sovereign Flame for yourself instead of being forced to hand it to God Goldeen…
“With these advantages and Little Husband’s unmatched wit and talent, I do not believe you will lose again.
“This is all I have to say, Little Husband. Be wary of Aritzia Sapientia. Take advantage of the Sapientia captives, but also don’t forget about your mortal realm roots. The key to your victory will be fusing the martial and mortal realm, but you’ve neglected the mortal realm too much.
“I also suggest that you establish a working relationship with Lilith Ravana and Saru Shruti. Do not shy away from the devil cultivators, they will be your strength. Though… quelling Higher Existence Ravana will be difficult.
“Do not neglect Damaris Agios either. The Crystal Dragon Clan will be your epicenter for conquering the Drago-Qilin lands… As will Calming Lake.
“Finally, trust Little Rose. Though she is likely very angry with you right now, I know she will be there for you when the time comes…
“…Forgive me, Little Husband… I want to make one final memory with you before I leave this world…”
“Cut it off.” Dyon said, turning his gaze away. He didn’t need to see what happened next, he knew well what scene he would see.
Even if Jade didn’t look disappointed, and even looked eager to allow Dyon to take her virginity for the sake of his better future, how could any woman feel comfortable in such a situation? She wanted so badly to be seen as Dyon’s wife, but his last words to her were about how he didn’t have any feelings for her at all.
A woman who sacrificed so much for him… Yet those were the words he said to her.
The tower spirit did as it was told.
Ri’s eyes glistened with tears while even Amphorae’s expression was stiffer than usual.
Dyon closed his eyes, a deep rage boiling within him.
