"You can only reach this level of the Supreme Realm. Go in." The golden-armored man suddenly spoke. As soon as he finished speaking, the last two steps that Bai Hao was standing on suddenly disappeared, as if they had never appeared at all, allowing Bai Hao to successfully land on the steps.
Just as Bai Hao's foot landed, the previously tightly closed door suddenly creaked open, slowly revealing a crack. A dusty, weathered atmosphere rushed out, carrying the vicissitudes of time, as if behind this door lay the weight of countless years.
Looking up at the slowly opening door, Bai Hao saw that it was pitch black behind the door, and it was almost impossible to see anything with the naked eye. But he felt as if something inside was calling to him, beckoning him to go in.
"I've already come this far, there's no turning back now." Muttering to himself, Bai Hao resolutely took a step and stepped into the darkness of the palace.
"Bang!"
After he had fully entered, the door suddenly slammed shut, and a bright light shone into the palace, revealing everything before Bai Hao's eyes—
Inside the vast palace, strange patterns were carved on several tall pillars around the perimeter. The content of the carvings was quite peculiar, depicting what appeared to be a ball of fire burning fiercely.
Every pillar is the same, except for the angles which are slightly different.
A red carpet was laid out on the ground, stretching all the way to the throne that represented the supreme emperor!
There, sitting there, was a person.
However, the man was not wearing a dragon robe, but rather a suit of golden armor. A sword was stuck in front of him, with his two heads crossed on the hilt. The golden eyes inside his helmet were as fiery as the sun, making those who saw them dare not look directly at him.
Sun God – Liuli!
The founder of the Divine Origin Dynasty, the seeker of the Primordial Flame, the source of all curses and chaos, now sits there.
"You've finally come..."
An aged voice, heavy with the weight of time, slowly emerged from the mouth of the sun god, its tone filled with relief, yet also tinged with weariness.
It was as if... he had been waiting for Bai Hao here all along, for countless years.
"Are you waiting for me?" Bai Hao asked, somewhat puzzled by Liu Li's tone.
This was the first time he had seen this so-called sun god. Had they met briefly before and he simply forgotten?
“I am waiting for everyone who can get here, whether it is you or someone else, waiting for you to save this country and this world…” Liuli said slowly, her voice filled with vicissitudes.
Bai Hao frowned slightly and looked at the Sun God Liuli, saying in a deep voice, "Isn't the reason this world has become like this because you obtained power from the Primordial Flame, and also brought a curse? The Divine Source Dynasty is what it is today simply because you obtained the power of the Solar Thunder from the Primordial Flame."
The Sun's Thunder allowed the Divine Origin Dynasty to overthrow the rule of the three ancient divine beasts, but it also brought a curse, and the Divine Origin Dynasty gradually entered an irreversible state of ruin.
There is no right or wrong, it's just a matter of choice.
To overthrow the rule of the three ancient divine beasts and lead humanity into the light, Liuli chose the power of the solar lightning and gained it. And he succeeded. However, obtaining the solar lightning also brought a curse of darkness—this was the price.
The Divine Origin Dynasty was clearly unable to cope with the curse, hence its current predicament.
"The power of the Sun's Thunder comes from the Primordial Fire, and it is also the source of my power that enabled me to lead humanity to overthrow the dark rule of the three ancient divine beasts. However, this power can dispel darkness, but it can also bring darkness. The curse was born from this..." Liuli slowly recounted the poignant past.
He once led his people to countless battlefields, slaying countless enemies to bring glory to the Divine Source Dynasty. But a curse descended, and humanity's glory did not last long.
As the world crumbled, the people of the Divine Source Dynasty became souls separated from their bodies one by one. Liuli, who possessed the strongest power of solar lightning, was not corrupted, but could only watch helplessly as the Divine Source Dynasty she had once built gradually decayed.
This is also the king's tragedy.
"The destruction of this world is a foregone conclusion, but I am not resigned to it. So I have found a way to change the past, and I am waiting for the right person to change the cycle of time so that my Divine Source Dynasty can continue..." Liuli continued, expressing his wishes.
"Change the time loop?" Bai Hao frowned. Such an ability was not something an ordinary person could do.
The laws of time are so profound that even the Supreme Realm hasn't touched them in the slightest. Perhaps only the legendary Unspeakable can possess the laws of time.
The sun god Liuli has clearly become something beyond description.
"Now that you have obtained the method to change the cycle of time, why don't you change it yourself?" Bai Hao frowned.
Even if Liuli can alter the laws of time, without reaching the level of the Unspeakable Blade of Cultivation, once she enters the laws of time, she will be powerless to reverse the situation.
It would be safest for Liuli to go in herself.
"I left the power to alter the laws of time behind this seat. I hope you will cherish it." Liuli sighed softly, her voice growing ever softer.
"I never said I agreed to help you. I have no interest in saving your Divine Origin Dynasty. I just want to find a way back to the Divine Radiance Continent." Bai Hao was very disgusted by Liuli's approach of practically arranging all his tasks for him.
While Liuli is indeed the sun god, he is only the sun god of the Divine Origin Dynasty. What he wants to save is this corrupt world, which has nothing to do with Baihaobo.
"I left the power to alter the laws of time behind this seat. I hope you will cherish it..." Liuli continued to repeat her words.
Bai Hao suddenly paused, his gaze fixed on Liuli sitting on the throne. The pair of golden eyes hidden behind the armor were devoid of any emotion, as if she were just a heartless machine.
Suddenly, an absurd thought flashed through Bai Hao's mind, one that even he himself couldn't believe. He took a step forward and slapped Liuli with his palm!
"Bang!"
The palm struck Liu Li without any resistance; the Sun God was completely unprepared.
This palm strike actually shattered the glass—golden armor was scattered all over the ground, and what was wrapped in the armor was not a person, but a skeleton!
Inside the armored head was merely a skull; as it fell to the ground, its golden eyes went out, revealing its true form in the air.
The sun god Liuli is already dead?!
The only clue left here is a skeleton and a lingering thought, meant to guide those who come here on their journey.
But this is a path that even the sun god could not achieve...
