On campus.
Figures formed from faint light appeared one after another.
They exercised on the sports field, attended classes in the classrooms, and ate in the cafeteria, living through every part of high school life day after day.
Time flashed by.
One group after another appeared, then vanished.
Suddenly.
"This is the moment."
Xu Yuan spoke without warning.
The Ancient God had just appeared on campus, and he had found it.
In an instant, everything concerning the Ancient God turned into countless pieces of information, taking shape in Xu Yuan's mind as scenes of light and shadow.
These scenes flickered in and out of Life and Death without pause.
Then.
Most of the scenes vanished from Xu Yuan's mind.
Only the simplest, most representative sequence remained.
The Ancient God.
The images followed the Ancient God as it went through countless events, made every kind of preparation, cultivated many Immortal Species and human Cultivators, and plotted more battles and killings than anyone could count.
Among those countless images, the most important scene drifted into view.
It was the moment just after the Ancient God had devoured the Three Realms.
It gathered its trusted subordinates and said:
"At the end of the plan, we must back the Universe into a corner and force it to perish with me."
"I have already mastered a special method of Truth."
"In the sleep of death, I can use this method to seize everything it has, and ultimately even become it."
"This is the grand process of fusing the two aspects of Truth into one."
"From then on, I will stride into eternity!"
"Remember this, all of you: keep harassing humanity so they suspect nothing."
"Yes!" everyone answered in unison.
Suddenly.
The Giant looked toward Xu Yuan.
No!
This was only an event from the past
