Chapter 277 The Dawn of Truth
Facing the giant hand composed of liquid light bands and with the mandala formula printed on the palm, Li Zhao reacted extremely quickly. He suddenly inserted the reverse-time blade into the ground. Powerful energy instantly spread out from the blade as the center, forming a transparent energy shield that temporarily blocked the attack of the giant hand.
The power of the giant hand was too strong. The shield made a buzzing sound under the continuous impact, and cracks spread rapidly.
"We won't be able to hold on for much longer if this goes on!" The spirit messenger shouted at the top of his lungs, beads of sweat the size of beans rolling down his forehead.
She closed her eyes tightly, frowned, and concentrated all her mental strength.
Suddenly, her mysterious and deep eyes of reincarnation opened wide, instantly emitting a dazzling green light.
The light pierced through the darkness like lightning, shining straight into the chaotic law of cause and effect around it.
Under the reflection of this powerful light, the surrounding space, which had originally seemed calm, began to tremble violently.
Immediately afterwards, as if a pair of invisible hands were tearing the void apart, extremely tiny cracks quietly emerged.
These gaps are so narrow that they are almost imperceptible, but they vaguely reveal some incredible and strange pictures.
The images were sometimes blurry and sometimes clear, as if they were fragments from countless other parallel universes.
They are as fleeting as a flash in the pan, and before people can see clearly what they are, they have disappeared without a trace.
Su Mengyao held the baby tightly. Even though the strange twelve-dimensional coordinate system flickered in the baby's pupils, her motherly instinct made her desperately want to protect her child. Her body trembled slightly, but her eyes remained firm as she stared at the giant hand, trying to find a way to respond.
Just as the shield was about to break, Li Zhao suddenly noticed that the lavender on the grassland began to sway in a strange way. Originally swaying gently in the wind, they seemed to be pulled by some powerful force, neatly falling in one direction, forming a giant arrow shape pointing towards a small hill in the distance. Li Zhao's heart moved, and he shouted to his companions, "Look at those lavenders! Let's run over there!"
The three of them immediately ran towards the hill, with the giant hand chasing closely behind them.
Every time it swung, it brought up a gust of wind, raising layers of dust from the surrounding land.
When they reached the foot of the hill, they discovered a hidden cave. The entrance to the cave was covered by a thin veil of light, on which flickered mysterious symbols similar to those on the tower gate.
Li Zhao did not hesitate and reached out to touch the light curtain. Strangely, the light curtain resonated the moment he touched it, slowly dissipated, revealing the interior of the cave.
The three of them hurriedly hid inside. The giant hand lingered at the entrance for a while, seemingly unable to break through the limitations of the light curtain, and finally retreated unwillingly.
The interior of the cave was filled with soft blue light, and the walls were engraved with various strange patterns and words.
Li Zhao observed these patterns carefully and found that they seemed to be telling an ancient story: at the beginning of the universe, there was a supreme being called the "God of Cause and Effect" who controlled all the laws of cause and effect.
Later, due to a huge disaster, the God of Cause and Effect fell into a deep sleep, and the law of cause and effect in the universe began to get out of control, resulting in countless parallel universes and cycles.
The key to breaking the cycle lies in a "ball of destiny" that is closely connected to the core of the law of causality.
"Could the black sphere we encountered earlier be the sphere of destiny?"
Su Mengyao speculated. The spirit nodded, "It's very likely. Furthermore, the information in this cave seems to suggest that we need to find a special kind of energy to truly break the cycle of cause and effect."
At this moment, the baby suddenly started crying, and his cries echoed in the cave, creating a wonderful resonance. As the crying sounded, the wall deep in the cave slowly opened, revealing a stone platform emitting a soft glow, and on the stone platform placed a crystal emitting colorful light.
Li Zhao approached the crystal and found that the surface of the crystal was flowing with patterns similar to the mandala formula, but more complex and mysterious.
When he reached out to pick up the crystal, it suddenly emitted a strong light that enveloped him.
In the light, Li Zhao saw countless pictures that showed the origin and development of the universe, as well as the birth and destruction of various parallel universes.
He also saw himself, Su Mengyao, and the spiritual messenger in countless reincarnations, as well as their efforts to break the cycle.
Suddenly, the scene changed, and Li Zhao saw a scene he had never seen before: in a huge cosmic void, there was a huge golden gear suspended, and the gear was engraved with the formula of the law of causality.
The gears turn slowly, and every turn is accompanied by the birth and disappearance of countless parallel universes.
And in the center of the gear, there is a tiny light spot, which seems to contain the power to break all cycles.
After the light dissipated, Li Zhao told Su Mengyao and the spirit messenger what he had seen.
After a moment's contemplation, the Spirit Envoy said, "This golden gear may be the true core of the law of causality, and that point of light may be the key to breaking the cycle we are looking for. But how do we get there?"
Just as everyone was lost in thought, the crystal in their hands suddenly vibrated rapidly.
Li Zhao discovered that the lines on the crystal began to flicker, forming a three-dimensional map with a route leading to the depths of the universe marked on it.
"This is the route that leads us to the golden gear!" Li Zhao said excitedly.
Before they could be happy, there was a sudden violent tremor outside the cave.
The three hurried out of the cave and found that the originally peaceful grassland had become unrecognizable. Countless huge cracks appeared in the sky, and all kinds of strange creatures and energies emerged from them.
These creatures and energies wreaked havoc on the grasslands, destroying everything in their path.
"It seems our actions have attracted the attention of some powerful beings, and they don't want us to break the cycle."
Su Mengyao's expression turned serious.
Li Zhao held the crystal tightly, his eyes determined: "No matter what difficulties we encounter, we must not give up.
This may be our last chance to break the cycle.”
The three of them moved forward in the direction indicated by the crystal, constantly avoiding various dangers along the way.
Those strange creatures and energies continued to attack them, but the crystal in Li Zhao's hand seemed to have some special power. Whenever danger approached, the crystal would emit light and dispel the danger.
After a difficult journey, they finally arrived at the edge of a huge universe.
Here, they saw a huge golden gear suspended in the void of the universe. The gear turned slowly and emitted powerful energy fluctuations.
The surface of the gear is engraved with complex causal formulas, each of which shines with a mysterious light.
When they were about to approach the gears, countless huge monsters made up of liquid light bands suddenly emerged from all directions.
These monsters have different shapes, some look like giant octopuses, some look like humanoid mechanical creatures, and their bodies are all engraved with mandala formulas. They are obviously controlled by the observer.
Li Zhao wielded the blade of reverse time and rushed towards the monster first. With a flash of the blade, he cut off several of the monster's tentacles.
Su Mengyao handed the baby to the spirit messenger, and her hands condensed an ice-blue light. Although she no longer had an ice blade, she was still able to control the power of ice, and shot ice spikes at the monster.
The spirit messenger protected the baby while using the Eye of Samsara to find the monster's weaknesses, and at the same time released a dark green light to interfere with the monster's actions.
The battle became increasingly intense, with more and more monsters appearing and their strength gradually being depleted.
Li Zhao had several wounds on his body, and blood stained his clothes. Su Mengyao's face also turned pale, as her power to control ice had consumed her greatly.
The spirit messenger held the baby tightly, his forehead was covered with sweat, and the light of the Eye of Samsara became dim.
Just when they felt despair, the crystal in Li Zhao's hand suddenly emitted a strong light, which spread out and enveloped all the monsters around.
Under the illumination of the light, the monsters began to gradually dissipate, turning into countless liquid light bands and returning to the universe.
The three took the opportunity to rush towards the golden gear. When they approached the gear, they found that there was a tiny groove in the center of the gear, and the shape of the groove was exactly the same as the crystal in their hands.
Li Zhao placed the crystal into the groove without hesitation. As soon as the crystal touched the groove, the entire golden gear began to vibrate violently and emit a dazzling light.
In the light, Li Zhao saw countless parallel universes begin to rearrange and recombine, and the law of causality gradually returned to stability.
The loops that once plagued them began to disappear, and the order of time and space gradually returned to normal.
Just when they thought everything was over, the baby suddenly let out a shrill cry.
Li Zhao looked back and was horrified to find that the baby's body began to change. His body gradually became transparent, and the mandala formula on his body began to flicker continuously. Then, the baby turned into a ray of light and flew towards the depths of the universe.
"No!" Su Mengyao shouted and tried to catch up, but was blocked by a powerful force.
Li Zhao looked in the direction where the baby disappeared, his heart filled with confusion and uneasiness.
At this moment, the spiritual messenger suddenly pointed to the sky and shouted, "Look!" Li Zhao looked up and found a huge figure appeared in the sky. This figure was very similar to the observer, but it exuded a sacred and powerful aura.
The figure spoke slowly, his voice echoing throughout the universe: "Do you think that breaking the cycle of cause and effect will end it?
The real challenge has just begun. This child will become the key to connecting all parallel universes, and you will shoulder the responsibility of protecting the universe."
After saying this, the figure gradually disappeared, and the universe returned to peace again.
Li Zhao, Su Mengyao and the spirit envoy stood beside the golden gear, looking into the depths of the universe, their hearts filled with confusion and expectation.
Although they have broken the cycle of cause and effect, more challenges await them in the future.
What secrets does the missing baby hide?
How will they shoulder the responsibility of protecting the universe?
Everything is still unknown, waiting for them to explore and solve.
