God of Destruction snorted. "Even if some higher being really did create it, so what?"
"I'm more curious about what this 'Sharp Critique' the Light Screen mentioned means!"
"And the 'Top Ten Idiot Women'—there's no way it's going to insult us gods too, is there?"
Goddess of Life spoke up. "The Light Screen said it can connect to every time and place in the Douluo World."
"Even we can't influence time. Could it spoil the future for us?"
"The future..." God of Evil stroked his chin, intrigued.
At this point, God of Evil and Goddess of Goodness were still the first generation. They hadn't yet passed their positions on to Lie Yan and Ji Dong.
God of Evil sneered. "What's the point of connecting to different times? They're all different periods. Could it influence the future?"
"We can't contact the future world anyway..."
"Contact?" Goddess of Goodness looked at the Light Screen.
A sudden feeling came over her. She tried touching the Light Screen with her spiritual power, then sent out a question:
[Douluo Era 1 Goddess of Goodness]: "This thing feels like we can communicate through it."
Suddenly, her message appeared on the Light Screen.
This startled all the gods.
"What is this?"
God of Evil hurriedly looked at Goddess of Goodness.
Goddess of Goodness quickly said, "Th-this thing seems to let us send messages if we touch it with our spiritual power!"
"But I don't know if anyone else can see them."
The instant she finished speaking, other people's messages appeared moments later.
[Douluo Era 1 Tang San]: "What exactly is this? We can actually use it to communicate?" [Douluo Era 1 Tang San]: "Why is there a 'Douluo Era 1' before my name?" [Douluo Era 2 Huo Yuhao]: "Huh, Senior Tang San? Could you be the legendary Senior Tang San?" [Douluo Era 1 Tang San]: "What Senior Tang San? Who are you? Your prefix says 'Douluo Era 2'?" [Douluo Era 2 Huo Yuhao]: "I'm from ten thousand years in your future. In our era, you're XXXXX" [Douluo Era 2 Huo Yuhao]: "You're XXXXXX..." [Douluo Era 2 Huo Yuhao]: "Hmm? What does this mean?" [Douluo Era 1 Tang San]: "What are you saying? What are these X's for?" [Douluo Era 2 Huo Yuhao]: "I was going to tell you about your reputation and circumstances in later generations, but it seems I can't say it..." [Douluo Era 1 Yu Xiaogang]: "Little San." [Douluo Era 1 Tang San]: "Teacher? You can use this to communicate too?" [Douluo Era 1 Bibi Dong]: "Xiaogang? Is that you, Xiaogang?!" [Douluo Era 1 Liu Erlong]: "Xiaogang!" [Douluo Era 1 Yu Xiaogang]: "Let me share my analysis first. I suspect this is what the Light Screen meant when it said it could connect to every era of Douluo." [Douluo Era 1 Yu Xiaogang]: "But since the Light Screen exists to deliver Sharp Critiques, or perhaps to reveal things about the future..." [Douluo Era 1 Yu Xiaogang]: "It's possible that people from the future can't talk about things it hasn't revealed yet!" [Douluo Era 2 Huo Yuhao]: "Is that how it works?" [Douluo Era 3 Tang Wulin]: "Let me try. Senior Huo Yuhao, actually, you're XXXXX too." [Douluo Era 3 Tang Wulin]: "Just as I thought! We can't casually reveal things about the future." [Douluo Era 1 Yu Xiaogang]: "Obviously. As a theoretical master of the Martial Soul world, could I really fail to figure out something this simple?" [Douluo Era 1 God of Evil]: "Interesting. So the Light Screen can connect to different times and places. But it can even connect to our Divine Realm!" [Douluo Era 1 Yu Xiaogang]: "What? The Divine Realm?!" [Douluo Era 1 Bibi Dong]: "The Divine Realm?!" [Douluo Era 2 Mu En]: "Gods?!" [Douluo Era 3 Yun Ming]: "There's a Divine Realm too?! Wasn't the Divine Realm XXXX? Because of that, I spent my whole life XXXX!" [Douluo Era 1 Di Tian]: "Gods! So you're God of Evil!" [Douluo Era 1 God of Evil]: "Oh? Di Tian, wait—you're the Di Tian who served under the Dragon God back then?" [Douluo Era 1 Di Tian]: "Hmph! So you do remember! Where are the others?" [Douluo Era 1 God of Destruction]: "Di Tian, I never thought you were still alive." [Douluo Era 1 Asura God]: "Di Tian!" [Douluo Era 1 Di Tian]: "So you're all here! Hmph! Without the Dragon God, you've all been living quite comfortably these past years, haven't you?!" [Douluo Era 1 God of Destruction]: "Di Tian, what do you mean by that? Back then, the Dragon God himself..." [Douluo Era 1 Silver Dragon King]: "Enough! Di Tian, be quiet! There's nothing to discuss!" [Douluo Era 1 Silver Dragon King]: "The Light Screen is what matters. What's the point of wasting time on this?" [Douluo Era 1 Silver Dragon King]: "Wait a moment. Let me test something!" [Douluo Era 1 Silver Dragon King]: "If my future self can see this, please reply!" [Douluo Era 1 Silver Dragon King]: "If my future self can see this, please reply!"
The Douluo Era 1.
Beneath the Lake of Life.
Deep in the darkest part of the Ferocious Beasts' lair.
Even Di Tian couldn't see what lay in this darkness. It was a special space where Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena recuperated.
Though Gu Yuena was still gravely wounded all over, she could at least think clearly.
As the embodiment of the Dragon God's wisdom, she had no interest in exchanging pointless words with God of Destruction and the others. She had encountered something like this.
She was more interested in figuring out how to use the Light Screen.
So Gu Yuena hurriedly asked whether her future self could reply.
However, after she sent out a large number of messages, she received no response.
Gu Yuena sighed. She had more or less figured it out.
Gu Yuena spoke again.
[Douluo Era 1 Silver Dragon King]: "It seems there's no version of me from another time..." [Douluo Era 1 Tang San]: "What do you mean? And who are all of you? This god, that god... Are there really gods in this world?" [Douluo Era 1 Asura God]: "Obviously, kid. You're from the Douluo World, right? That's right. We're gods from the Divine Realm." [Douluo Era 1 Asura God]: "But Silver Dragon King, I didn't expect you to still be around. That surprised us. We thought that even if you weren't dead, you'd be unconscious." [Douluo Era 1 Asura God]: "Are you testing this because you think people from different times only connect to the earliest time in which they existed?" [Douluo Era 1 Silver Dragon King]: "I'm afraid that's right." [Douluo Era 1 God of Destruction]: "I'll try too!" [Douluo Era 1 God of Destruction]: "Future God of Destruction, answer me!" [...] [Douluo Era 1 God of Destruction]: "Looks like Asura was right." [Douluo Era 3 Tang Wulin]: "What do you mean? What are you talking about?" [Douluo Era 1 Yu Xiaogang]: "I suspect these gods mean that if a character exists across multiple time periods—in other words, if they live for a very long time—" [Douluo Era 1 Yu Xiaogang]: "Then the Light Screen will only connect to the earliest time period." [Douluo Era 1 Tang San]: "That's right, Teacher. You're correct." [Douluo Era 1 Tang San]: "For instance, if I lived a long time, long enough to reach the next era..." [Douluo Era 1 Tang San]: "Then there'd be another Tang San in the next era, while there'd still be me in this era." [Douluo Era 1 Tang San]: "But the Light Screen would only connect to the earlier era—in other words, me now—not the future Tang San." [Douluo Era 1 Tang San]: "Perhaps that's to keep things from getting all mixed up..."
After those words, quite a few people who had been silently watching the spectacle began to understand as well.
They had gotten a rough handle on the Light Screen's basic rules.
It could connect to different times and places, allowing communication across time and worlds. It might also deliver Sharp Critiques and reveal secrets.
But plenty of hidden figures were still shocked. Was the Light Screen really that powerful?
It had even dragged over the legendary gods and the legendary Divine Realm?
They'd never even heard of these Asura God and God of Destruction before...
