Chapter 35.6: The Time Loop

  The White Wolf Yao King (SS) advanced amidst the glory and the echoing resonance of the entire forest behind him. His radiance illuminated a vast region of the sky; even the night was transformed into day. He ran through the air, and with every step, a five-colored rainbow bloomed beneath his feet. Behind his head rested a circular disc radiating the Glory of the Sun. The White Wolf Solar Star had entered the fray, wreathed in golden fire, also known as Golden Fire (Soul-Burning Flame). Following him were four Archdruids of the highest rank, who transformed into four White Deities:

  


      
  1. The Archdruid with Deer Antlers (S+): Transformed into a giant white deer, a hundred meters tall. Upon its antlers sat a solar disc. With every step, flowers and grass bloomed beneath its feet (Wood Manipulation). Swirling around it was Black Fire (The Flame that incinerates all things).


  2.   
  3. The Archdruid with Bird Feathers (S+): Transformed into a massive White Phoenix. Its entire body shone like a sphere of light, surrounded by dancing white flames. It was called White Fire (The Flame that purges all demons and heals all living beings).


  4.   
  5. The Archdruid with the Lion Mask (S+): Transformed into a massive White Lion with four white wings. Two wings were for flight, while the other two hoisted a solar disc. The sound of its wings beating was like thunder, and a single roar shook the mountains and forests (Sonic and Wind Manipulation). From its mouth, it spewed Purple Fire, known as Spirit Fire (The Flame that incinerates all Divine Souls).


  6.   
  7. The Archdruid wearing Elephant Tusks (S+): Transformed into a white elephant a hundred meters tall. Wherever it walked, Primordial Water flowed (Water Manipulation). Upon its back was a dazzling solar disc, and in the center of its forehead was a third eye that remained closed. When opened, it would fire Blue Fire, also known as Indigo Fire (The Flame that incinerates the Astral and Etheric bodies).


  8.   


  Together, the five formed the Five-Sun Astral Array, encircling the Great Demon Tower. This was the exact same formation they had once used to defeat and seal the Evil God of the White Race. Their appearance immediately caused a shockwave of astonishment among all races. Although they did not display the full majesty and power of the Great Yao Kings, the pressure alone was terrifying enough to ensure no one dared to provoke the Yao Race.

  The Buddha Race deployed further reinforcements. In addition to Joyful Buddha (SS), there was the Victorious Buddha (SS). His entire body radiated the golden light of merit, clad in Golden War God Armor and wielding a Golden Staff. His body was covered in fur, and he summoned Ape-Form Avatars, with a cloning ability that created a force like tens of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals. Next was the Thousand-Handed Bodhisattva (SS), a Bodhisattva with a thousand hands; on each palm was an eye, and each hand held a Dharma treasure. Finally, the Dragon-Subduing Arhat (SS) joined, enveloped in Lightning Fire (a multi-colored flame accompanied by lightning, the fastest of all fires). The Arhat sat upon the head of a Red Dragon King, and the two moved in perfect unison, ready to enter the battle to assist.

  The Asura Race were originally extraterrestrials who wanted to invade this world because they thought it was too weak. Their fighting spirit was centered on resisting injustice and maintaining universal balance—helping the weak defeat the strong. This spirit was permitted by the Heavenly Dao, allowing them to enter as demigods, from which they developed into their current state. They also brought a powerful force but did not participate directly; instead, they hid their true strength, planning to help whichever side became weaker.

  The Dragon Race did not send many reinforcements, except for the White Wing Dragon (S+) and two Dragon Envoys (S). They were joined by a White Dragon Queen (SS) and many Dragon Slaves. However, they stood at a great distance to observe, primarily present to protect the Small Imperial Kingdom, with no intention of joining the fight.

  The Immortal Race brought hundreds of giant ships that covered the sky. The top twenty great sects all participated with a vast array of forms and types of magic. Leading them were Seven Star (S+) and Nine Star (S+) to watch the battle. Their original purpose was simply entertainment—to watch the battle live—without any intention of helping. To be precise, anyone who wanted to help could help, and anyone who wanted to sit and watch could watch; no one was forced. Life and death were for each individual to decide.

  The Evil God inside the thousand-meter-high tower looked at the Five-Sun Astral Array, chuckled, and said: "White Wolf, do you think I am a fool? Using the same old script over and over won't make things difficult for me. Not to mention, this array is much weaker than the ancient one; it only has a grand exterior."

  He spoke to the Great Arch-Scepter, which contained the wisdom of hundreds of thousands, or the AI Scepter: "Download new knowledge from me. The enemy's formation is based on the four elements."

  "The White Deer uses the Wood attribute to feed the Black Fire. This one is the most dangerous, as he has the ability to control my own Black Fire. In a moment, he will plant a giant Divine Tree as tall as this tower."

  "The White Elephant uses Primordial Water (the first water, from which earth and stone emerged). This flow of water will nourish the Divine Tree, making it stronger and stronger with extreme magic resistance. Be careful with the Blue Fire; it is a flame specialized in destroying energy forms like us (extraterrestrials)."

  "The White Lion and White Phoenix are the primary attacking blades, but their defensive capabilities are poor."

  "The White Wolf has the power to create countless clones and is the most mediocre among them. He is only truly strong when assisted by the other four, who grant him defensive spells, blessings, luck, and many benefits, making every weak clone powerful..."

  After a period of calculation, the AI Scepter said: "Then attack the White Elephant first to prevent him from using Primordial Water to support the Divine Tree. After that, attack the White Wolf to destroy all clones, rendering the support spells useless. Next, direct all power to attack the White Phoenix, the medic of the entire army, who has poor defenses. Then the White Lion, and finally the White Deer. Every step will be calculated meticulously. If it matches the memories provided by the Master, the success rate is 90-95%."

  The Evil God asked: "Is there no need to use the power of the Star Warriors from the Omega Peace Council?"

  The AI Scepter replied: "There is no need to fight this opponent with full strength. We need to conserve energy to fight the other forces. They are standing outside observing."

  The Evil God said: "Good. Then do it."

  The AI Scepter immediately mobilized a massive amount of Living Armor out of the tower. There were many types: Flying Armor, Laser-wielding Armor, Melee Armor, Self-destructing Armor, etc. Additionally, there were Gargoyle Golems, Armored Golems, and Knight Golems. They began to leave the tower and attack the opponent with precision. Every action, attack, and defense was calculated meticulously and with extreme accuracy—devoid of emotion and without a single redundant movement. As the array weakened over several days, the White Wolf knew he could not resist for long. He called out to the Buddha Race: "Help me!"

  The Buddha Race had been observing for many days. Seeing an opportunity, they entered the fray. Joyful Buddha flew up first and used his song to soothe the pain, creating golden energy shields to envelop all allies. His flight speed was extremely fast; the energy beams fired at him had no effect, being deflected elsewhere. He dodged in the blink of an eye, and even if hit, the super-strong defensive energy protected him.

  Victorious Buddha descended from the clouds into the center of the battle. The golden staff in his hand transformed into a long pole; wherever it swung, the enemy was shattered. Once the battlefield was partially cleared, Victorious Buddha closed his eyes and chanted a mantra. Thousands of clones immediately appeared, forming an army armed with staffs that charged into battle everywhere.

  The Thousand-Handed Bodhisattva threw countless Dharma treasures into the sky. They took many forms: blades, swords, spears, and staffs, as well as others like water jars, rings, beads, flowers, and pieces of wood. Their sizes varied—some as large as mountains, others as small as toothpicks. Some were extremely heavy, others extremely light. Each Dharma treasure was unique, carrying different types of magic. Some even transformed into dragons, phoenixes, or kylins; no two were alike.

  The Dragon-Subduing Arhat also began to participate. His entire body was covered in Five-Colored Lightning Fire. His speed was like a flash of lightning, zipping back and forth across the battlefield, sometimes killing enemies, sometimes saving allies. Electricity discharged everywhere, and the fire burned fiercely, continuously sweeping through the opponents. His power was in no way inferior to Heavenly Fire.

  At this time, the Star Warrior force also made their landing. Most of them were war machines commanded by members with Super-Psychic abilities. They were the result of long-term research by the Omega Council over thousands of years, combining alien technology to counter the powers of the creatures on this planet. They were the Version 101 Warriors—though they had flesh and blood, they were completely emotionless. They were brought here as a test to see if this force could overwhelm the most powerful creatures here, and the results were very promising. Both opponents were surprised by their strength, which pushed back both the Buddha Race and the Demon Race.

  The Asura Race, after observing for many days, found this battle very interesting. They realized the races of this world were completely ignorant of the developments outside this world. Thus, they were constantly hit by one surprise after another. They didn't even know the basic knowledge that Laser is a new element—a combination of Light and Fire magic. Because it was a new element, no Elemental God governed it yet, making it impossible to control. One could only dodge; one could not use Fire Resistance or Light Resistance spells to withstand it.

  Therefore, they began to join the war. Believing the Buddha Race and Demon Race to be weaker, they sided with them to fight against the Evil God. Their fighting style leaned toward melee combat and technology; they viewed attacking from a distance as cowardly, wearing armor as a sign of weakness, retreating as a disgrace, and killing the enemy as the only glory. Thus, they went bare-chested, wearing no armor—only simple clothing—while gripping their weapons tightly. Their pets were Dragon-Headed Snakes (Nagas), which could breathe fire or spit poison to support their masters. Their commonly used technology was spatial tech; they wore watches on their wrists that could create Spatial Jumps (Teleportation), helping them close the distance with opponents and unleash extremely powerful blows.

  The leader of the Asura was Asura Bali (Mahabali, S+, lv 895). He was known as the Just King, governing the entire race in fairness, without class, without poverty, and without lies. His entire body radiated a purple light specialized in defense, protected by a Nine-Headed Naga. He also possessed the soul-protection of the Asura Vishnu (lv 999), which provided extremely strong protective power.

  Bali's son was named Asura Bana (Banasura, S+, lv 850), known as the Warrior King. He could transform into a form with 1,000 arms and was blessed and protected by the soul of Asura Shiva (lv 999). He possessed immense combat power, an undefeated war god among the Asura. His entire body radiated a Red Aura. As soon as Bali initiated the war, Bana was the first Asura to use a teleportation bracelet to go directly inside the tower, slaughtering in all directions. Anyone who blocked his path was hacked into a thousand pieces—he was an invincible fiend.

  At this moment, the Omega Council officially joined. All energy gates opened, and giant battleships passed through spatial portals, anchoring right above the peak of the tower. A large force of aliens landed on the tower. Smaller starships flew out from the larger ones, swarming to attack everyone, including the Immortal Race who were sitting on their flying boats watching the fight. Taken by complete surprise, the Immortal ships fell one after another, shocking everyone.

  Right then, Seven Star—who was currently called the King Star temporarily, replacing his recently deceased father—held an important Dharma treasure in his hand called the Key of Time. He held one half, and Queen Moon held the other. When joined, they would form a single key with the power to take the owner back to the Primordial Era (Ban Co), when the Heavenly Dao was first formed, to change its rules or regulations. However, one had to pay with their own lifespan and a corresponding amount of merit, depending on the content of the change.

  But at this very moment, Seven Star's half of the Time Key began to vibrate. He was suddenly pulled into a crimson space filled with red warnings. The mechanical voice of the Heavenly Dao rang out: "Anomaly detected in space and time, causing the world to experience the Apocalypse earlier than scheduled. Requesting the Protector of the Time Key to return everything in the space-time framework back to the original state."

  Seven Star asked: "What do you mean, Apocalypse? What is wrong? How does it need to be fixed?"

  The mechanical voice of the Heavenly Dao rang out again: "Unlock all functions of the Time Key to the maximum level. Skill: Infinite Time Loop. Consequence of use: None. Condition for Time Reversal: Bearer of the key dies, or Deviation from the original arrangement, or Apocalypse..."

  Before Seven Star could understand anything, he was brought back to the moment the Solar Star Array was being formed. At this time, the Heavenly Maiden—wife of Nine Star—was using a Heavenly Eye spell to scan the entire battlefield. She projected those images onto large crystal balls within the Immortal Race's flying ships for everyone to see. she continuously spoke, broadcasting and introducing the abilities of both sides, predicting who would win or lose, and constantly accessing the Akashic Library to look up information on these strangers.

  Seven Star felt suspicious about what he had just seen, yet he remained still and observed. Everything appeared exactly as it had before, and the red alarm space of the Heavenly Dao appeared once more, making it impossible for him to remain seated. He stood up to find out exactly what was wrong here.
