Eighteen-Winged Radiant Angel!
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Ancient war drums resounded throughout the universe, as if offering the grandest welcome to the new Supreme who had stepped into the River of Time.
But Jiang Yuu knew that this was the sound of the River of Time flowing through the Multiverse.
The River of Time is not a real "river"; it is the flow of everything, and the eternal cognition.
The moment Jiang Yuu stepped onto the river, He knew its true nature.
Fate builds the dam, change creates the flow, and time itself flourishes within it.
It is the lifeblood of the Multiverse, and every inscription leaves its mark in the long river of time.
Those who dwell on the River of Time can only Transcendence supreme will.
When he finally understood all of this, everything about his past and future, everything about his present, was being "stripped away" from him in the River of Time.
This is a detachment from the essence, like leaving new marks on the past.
As he stepped into the River of Time in the Multiverse, he suddenly felt the mysterious weight of the entire Multiverse.
Splash!
The River of Time that suddenly appeared in the Original Universe vanished in an instant.
The beings of the Original Universe only heard the rumbling of war drums and felt the overwhelming weight of history and the mystery of the future before losing all perception of this mystery.
Looking up at the Star Sea, they could only vaguely see a Monarch wearing Supreme Crown gradually ascending to "heaven" and leaving their current dimension.
"The Glory of the Lord is shining, the majesty of the Lord is spreading!"
"Lord, walk in heaven!"
Countless Angel and beings who believed in Jiang Yuu were struck by this sudden, heartfelt emotion. They immediately stopped pursuing the fleeing Gray Legion and knelt in the starry sky, praying and worshipping in fervor!
Meanwhile, the soldiers of the other races in the Holy Legion suddenly saw a large group of people kneeling around them. Although they themselves felt nothing, they moved and knelt down with a thud, beginning to pray.
Deserters are fleeing; where else can they escape to? They're all just somewhere like the Original Universe.
But Lord of Heaven's majesty Glory cover the universe; He is watching!
On the River of Time.
Jiang Yuu walked slowly, moving forward along the river of time, following the flow of the present moment.
To remain still is to be history, to move quickly is to be the future; He walks at the speed of the River of Time itself, which is to walk in the present!
The River of Time crawls at His feet, yet it can no longer wash away His spirit!
As He walked, He looked ahead, above, and below.
He saw a dazzling and endless Milky Way.
It hovers and rises and falls in an infinitely hazy and mysterious dimension, seemingly without any pattern, yet possessing a beauty full of Order.
He understood that this magnificent silver river appeared only in His eyes. In the eyes of different powerful beings and great beings, it could be a continuous mountain range, a vast and boundless sea of clouds, or even enormous divine chains connecting the past, present, and future!
The Mountain of Time, the Sea of Time, and the Chain of Time—though each has its own distinct form, they are all mysterious, magnificent, and awe-inspiring.
Jiang Yuu raised his head again, looking up at the winding, boundless River of Time above, where he saw imposing figures exuding powerful auras, sitting high on noble and ancient Throne.
Those were Supreme beings!
They exist Transcendence the River of Time; neither the past nor the future can affect them.
They exist only in the present moment, yet they can travel through the past and the future.
This is the essence and difference of Supreme.
Of course, this is just a privilege they enjoy in the Multiverse.
They are able to receive the blessing of the Multiverse itself, because those dazzling Throne on the River of Time are the marks they have etched upon the Multiverse.
Walking along the River of Time, Jiang Yuu occasionally looked at the two banks of the River of Time.
He saw powerful beings standing on tributaries of the River of Time, drifting with the current, just like seeing his former self.
They are all Quasi-Supreme beings who have not yet been proclaimed as sovereigns, still trapped in the prison of the River of Time, unable to reach their ultimate goal.
Achieving the Supreme is not easy.
Most of them, throughout their lives, could not Transcendence the River of Time and, with their own will and core, forge the great Supreme Throne that symbolizes Supreme.
This is the most exalted position in the Multiverse; it cannot be obtained or bestowed lightly!
Jiang Yuu's insights grew stronger and deeper as he traveled.
He felt the weight he was bearing gradually increasing, yet also gradually becoming lighter.
He understood that it was not that the weight He carried had decreased, but rather that His power had become even greater.
The weight of the universe, the weight of civilization, the weight of race, the weight of bloodline... all converge into the burden of a Monarch.
Every Supreme is a Monarch.
Only by bearing the weight of all living beings and the weight of countless lives can one become the Supreme.
Even those Supreme who do not cherish their people or respect life bear the weight of an entire universe.
This is the Multiverse's measure of the Supreme essence, ensuring that every being in every universe, regardless of how difficult their survival may be, has the possibility of existence and continuation.
The River of Time flows slowly.
One after another, the tributaries of time from different universes converge in the long river, and Jiang Yuu passes by them one by one.
As He walked, behind Him, a pair of incomparably radiant white wings slowly unfolded once more on His back, which originally had sixteen radiant wings!
Unbeknownst to him, he had become an eighteen-winged, radiant Angel.
The Multiverse began to etch His mark, His race, and His bloodline!
The names of the Angel began to be eternally etched into the depths of the Multiverse.
His steps began to become light, as if he were about to take flight.
He continued on his journey and passed by another tributary from an unknown universe.
Coincidentally.
This tributary, connected to the River of Time, began to surge, and a new energy broke through some kind of constraint.
He saw a newly born Quasi-Supreme rise from a tributary of the River of Time, struggling to cross the barrier of time, looking at everything before him with excitement and joy.
He suddenly stopped, his face showing endless surprise and astonishment.
He saw a Holy Angel with eighteen pure white, Radiance wings walking radiantly along the river of time.
He didn't know what Angel was, but the moment he saw Jiang Yuu, the name "Angel" was easily etched into his mind!
He was amazed.
"A great being who roams freely across the River of Time!"
