What Is the Price? (Bonus Chapter for Dunguang, Who Loves Hui Steamed Mugwort)

"Because you are the master of the Lei Fa, while He is observing the Lei Fa, He is also observing you, and then He noticed the traces of time on you."

"Ah?"

Iksil reassured him, "Don't panic. If it weren't for Esti's power, any high-level god could detect the traces of time within your body. Without Esti's cover, you would shine like a light bulb in the starry sky, dazzling and incongruous."

Upon hearing about the traces of time, Su Xi was indeed quite flustered. After all, she didn't want to tell anyone about these memories, and now not only Yuan Yi knew, Iksil knew too...

"Moreover, your body is currently nourished by my divine power, so it would be easy for me to obtain memories from your genes."

"Do you remember what I just said about cosmic genes?"

Su Xi: "Hmm..."

"If we consider your body as the universe, and I am a being from outside the universe, with Life Level that is even High Kami, wouldn't it be a very easy thing for me to understand your life information?" Iksil explained calmly.

Su Xi replied dryly, "It seems that's indeed the case..."

"So don't give your personal belongings, including your hair and blood, to others casually, otherwise a discerning deity might discover the problems within you."

Su Xi nodded firmly. Fortunately, she hadn't registered her life information at the Silver Vortex Center because she thought it was troublesome and unsafe. Otherwise, the Silver Vortex Center would definitely have noticed something was wrong with her by now.

"Being able to reverse time is enough reason for the Beast God's will to take action against your body."

"Although there are many orcs in the Silver Vortex Society, they are everywhere, but among so many orcs, there is not a single high-level orc god, and they do not have their own Homestar. As the will of the orcs, do you think He would not be anxious?"

"He was so anxious, and then he noticed your presence. You're probably now seen by Him as the hope for restoring the Orc Race's prestige."

Su Xi: "... But you stopped me."

Iksil said with a half-smile, "Are you getting soft-hearted?"

Su Xi waved her hands repeatedly. "No."

"I'm just lamenting that such a big event happened, and I couldn't even take control of it."

"Who can control destiny? Look at my Senxing, if I could control destiny, would it have turned out like this?" Iksil said helplessly.

Now, through Iksil, Su Xi also understands the meaning of the images displayed in the Destiny.

The Tree People represent the Sen Star Race, and the Kangaroo represents the Orc Race.

These two wills fought fiercely for control of her body, resulting in mutual destruction.

Finally Elysia, acting as the referee, stepped forward and declared a tie, which led to the sixth effect of [Transcendent Gene]: she can switch between human, beastman, and elf forms.

As for why Elysia is the referee, she herself is completely baffled.

Su Xi knew even less.

Having received too much information, Iksil asked Su Xi to sit down and rest for a while.

Let's also talk about her health.

Because she is currently only level 91, and is still far from the level 100 godhood, Su Xi cannot generate divine power on her own. Therefore, her body still needs to be immersed in Iksil's divine power. Only in this way can Su Xi use divine power and maintain the state of the [Gate of Reality].

Moreover, divine power is overwhelming against most attributes. Ordinary attributes can only deal with life forms that also use ordinary attributes, such as creators, but forget about dealing with gods.

Even if Su Xi reaches level 99 and her attributes are ridiculously exaggerated, it will still be very difficult for her to face a god.

Of course, if special abilities of the avatar are used, then they cannot be discussed together. Yūko's [Word Spirit Art], Flandre's [Destruction], and Remilia's [Fate] are all highly advanced applications of the rules.

However, using magic to drive rule-based abilities is ultimately no match for using divine power to drive rule-based abilities.

Therefore, divine power is still very important to Su Xi at the moment.

Iksil's divine power at least gave her the ability to retaliate after a conflict with the gods.

Another reason is that after regaining her memories, [Iksil] will be killed by a mysterious force. She needs to use Su Xi's [Dimensional Avatar] to be reborn so that she can hide under [Esti's ] protection.

However, if Su Xi wants to be reborn using this method, her body will need to be soaked for several months.

Su Xi didn't have any objections to this. Since she already had one Yuan Yi, adding another Iksil wouldn't be a big problem.

Finally, the question to Iksil was about how to resolve the aliens' covetousness of the Yuan Yi.

"How do we solve Ubite Star's problem?"

Iksil is, after all, a veteran deity of the starry sky, and he certainly knows more about the situation in the starry sky, as does Ubite Star.

Iksil: "Do you know that the proto-gods who are eyeing the Yuan Yi are the Ubite Star civilization?"

Su Xi: "... It's fate that told me."

"Oh, you're quite cautious. Did you already know all this before you came to the starry sky by using the power of fate? Including our conversation right now?"

Su Xi scratched her head and said awkwardly, "No, fate doesn't tell me in a very straightforward way. It only uses some images to hint at it. If I don't have one of the key pieces of information, or if I have a flash of inspiration, I might not even know what fate is trying to say."

"Is that so...?"

It must be to avoid the price of prying into fate.

Iksil thought to himself.

Using any rule-based ability comes with a corresponding price. However, for ordinary rule-based abilities, the price can be offset by paying divine power. But for something like peering into the river of fate, the price will inevitably be enormous.

What Iksil really wanted to tell Su Xi was that using the power of fate comes at a tremendous price, and reversing time is no exception. However, her power of fate automatically avoided this price, so there's no need to mention it. She just didn't know whether she should tell Su Xi that reversing time required paying a huge price...

After thinking about it, I've decided not to talk about this for now.

After all, she didn't know what price Su Xi or Su Jiang paid for reversing time, and saying it now would only increase her worries.

Iksil: "Regarding Ubite Star, they seem to be members of the Myriad Stars Society. If things go wrong, it could have far-reaching consequences, making the entire Myriad Stars Society aware of Yuan Yi's existence..."

"Yes, I know. I have also observed through my ability to determine fate that the chances of Ubite Star successfully reaching Earth are very slim. But I'm afraid that Ubite Star will report Yuan Yi's existence to the Myriad Stars Society. If that happens, there will be no way to reverse the situation."

Ubite Star possesses three gods. If Iksil were at its peak, she could handle it, but Iksil cannot possibly recover to its peak so quickly.

"Let's move."
