Li Xiu frowned slightly. So much purple dragon energy was flying in different directions, and it was impossible to absorb it all back with just the Hand of God.
He raised his arms, and his ten fingers were like gun muzzles, continuously firing white light bullets. Countless light bullets flew towards the purple dragon energy as Li Xiu's arms danced.
The expected collision and explosion did not occur. All the purple dragon energy hit by the light bullet was sucked in by the high-speed light bullet, as if the purple dragons were trapped inside the light bullet. The light bullet was suspended in the air and did not damage the time tunnel.
In the blink of an eye, all the purple dragon energy that Li Boyang had waved out was trapped in the light bullet. The people who watched what happened cheered.
"God is God. He is so powerful and invincible."
"Haha, God, fuck that bastard, give him a taste of his power."
“Luckily there is God.”
People were celebrating with joy, but there was no trace of happiness on Li Xiu's face.
"How long... can you hold on..." Li Boyang said lightly, purple air rising from his body like a volcanic eruption, his long hair standing on end, countless purple air emanating from his body, as if poking a dragon's nest, turning into endless purple dragon air and bombarding the time tunnel.
Li Xiu waved his ten fingers and light bullets kept spraying out, but even so, it was difficult to stop all the purple dragon energy.
He knew that Li Boyang was using this method to force him to submit, but he had no other choice now and could only stop as many as possible.
He couldn't really fight with Li Boyang, otherwise it would only make the situation worse. Li Boyang didn't really want to fight him to the death, but Li Boyang could do whatever he wanted, but Li Xiu couldn't ignore it.
As the light bullets intertwined, most of the purple dragon energy was trapped by Li Xiu within the light bullets, but a part of it still bombarded the time tunnel, and explosions continued to be heard.
This time the explosions were more numerous and denser than the last ones, causing more and more frequent distortions of time and space to appear all over the world. Even in the kingdom of demons, time and space distortions appeared, and the demons that had been killed walked out of the time and space distortions.
In Changshengtian, time and space are distorted everywhere, and countless evil spirits walk out of it.
All the trial-takers and magic armor masters of Changshengtian had to join the battle. Even the old immortal, Wan Chaochun, Han Minghui and others who had been promoted to the status of gods had no choice but to go into battle and kill the evil spirits continuously.
There were screams everywhere on Earth, and a large amount of distorted space appeared in many cities. The demons that were killed outside or inside the city in the past kept rushing towards the city.
Buildings collapsed and flames shot up into the sky. Many ordinary people died in the collapsed buildings or in the sea of fire before they could be rescued. Those who escaped were also massacred by evil spirits on the streets.
The magic armorers and trial participants from various major forces have all rushed towards the evil spirit, but they cannot predict where the evil spirit will rush out from. By the time they arrive, many people have been killed or injured, and there are cries of crying and wailing everywhere.
Li Boyang continued to release the purple dragon energy while looking at Li Xiu with a half-smile and said: "This is just the beginning. If you continue to fight with me, it will not only be these humans who will die, but the whole world will be destroyed. Not to mention humans, even few demons will be able to survive. How do you choose? Do you want to sacrifice your life to save the world, or fight with me, even if it means destroying the world, you must decide the outcome with me?"
With the continuous bombardment of purple dragon energy, the situation on Earth and the Demon Kingdom became very bad.
It is understandable that the earth was massacred by the demons that rushed out from the distortion of time and space, but in the demon kingdom, those demons that rushed out from the distortion of time and space actually rushed towards other demons, killing them desperately and not even sparing their own kind.
"You have seen your future, right?" Li Xiu suddenly said this.
Li Boyang paused for a moment, and Li Xiu continued, "You know you failed, right?"
Li Boyang stopped emitting purple dragon energy, squinted his eyes and looked at Li Xiu and said, "It seems that you have been to the theater of life."
"Isn't that what you want me to see?" Li Xiu looked at Li Boyang calmly and said.
"That's right." Li Boyang laughed. "I have indeed been to the theater of life, and more than once. Every time I tried to do something to change the future that didn't exist at all, I would find that the theater of life did change, but one thing has not changed, that is, I failed."
"Since you have been to the theater of life a long time ago and know that I can definitely defeat you, why didn't you kill me early?" This was the doubt in Li Xiu's mind.
"Do you think I haven't thought about it? Unfortunately, the ending is still the same." Li Boyang licked his lips and said.
"Still the same?" Li Xiu was slightly stunned.
"At the crossroads of destiny, I have made many choices," Li Boyang said lightly.
"Will the choices made at the crossroads of fate affect the ending of the drama of life?" Li Xiu finally understood.
Li Boyang nodded and said, "That's right, but the choice you make at the crossroads of fate will only be valid that one time. When you enter again, it will return to the original state."
Li Xiu frowned slightly. In other words, the Crossroads of Destiny and the Theater of Life together are equivalent to a machine that can deduce the future.
Li Boyang had deduced the future time and again, constantly correcting mistakes, hoping to achieve final success, but no matter how he tried or what choices he made, the final result was failure.
So Li Boyang had no choice but to win without fighting and force Li Xiu to sacrifice himself.
"But I still don't understand, since I'm already dead, why would you fail?" Li Xiu said slowly.
"I don't understand either." Li Boyang said indifferently: "You don't have to look at me like that. After all, the time tunnel is not the real future. It can only deduce the future. The crossroads of fate is the cause, and the theater of life is the result. I can only see the cause and the result, but not the process in between. So I only know what I chose and then saw what the result was. I also have no idea what happened in the middle."
"That means I will definitely win." Li Xiu was not happy about this.
As expected, Li Boyang continued, "You don't have to be happy too soon. In each future deduction, the result is always the same. The world will inevitably be destroyed."
"It seems that we are all stuck in a dead end. You can't escape the fate of failure, and I can't save the world." Li Xiu sighed.
"So we all have only one way to go." Li Boyang said calmly: "You sacrifice yourself for the whole world, including me."
"Why do you have the illusion that I will sacrifice myself? Since you have seen the future so many times, you should know what choice I will make." Li Xiu said.
"After all, deduction is just deduction. As long as something has not happened, there are countless possibilities." Li Boyang said.
"Is there any possibility that you took the child to the Gate of the World?" Li Xiu suddenly asked.
"What do you mean?" Li Boyang frowned.
Li Xiu immediately realized that Li Boyang really didn’t know anything about Zai Zai, but he had been to the crossroads of fate so many times, how could he not know about Zai Zai?
There is only one possibility. The crossroads of Li Boyang's destiny is constantly changing. When Jiang Lanling went there, Li Boyang did not go, but Zai Zai appeared at that time. However, Li Boyang did not know the future of that time, so he did not know about Zai Zai's existence at all, nor did he know that Zai Zai could help him open the door to the world.
"Even if Li Boyang didn't go that time, didn't he see Zaizai when he went there again?" Li Xiu realized something and thought to himself, "Could it be that because Zaizai followed Jiang Lanling out, there was no Zaizai in the future deductions, so no matter how many times Li Boyang went there, he couldn't see Zaizai again?"
Li Xiu felt that he had finally connected all the clues. Li Boyang once took Zai Zai with him to the crossroads of his future destiny, but now he didn't know whether he might be able to open the door with Zai Zai in the future.
"Then where did Zaizai come from? Why could she help Li Boyang open the door?" Li Xiu kept thinking.
Suddenly, Li Xiu trembled, as if he thought of something.
"You want to delay time to reach the future station and fight me there, right? Unfortunately, you are wrong. The future of the Time Tunnel is not the real future world, and it cannot withstand a battle of our level. As long as you choose to fight me, the outcome will remain the same." Li Boyang said, and the purple dragon energy on his body burst out again: "Now we have entered the future stage, let me show you how terrifying the future is."
Li Xiu could only burst out his strength again to intercept the purple dragon energy, but there was still dragon energy bombarding the time tunnel.
The wall was broken, and time and space distortion appeared again all over the world. However, the monsters that rushed out from the time and space distortion this time were no longer ordinary monsters.
Above the sky of Hongsha City, a demon spirit larger than an aircraft carrier flew out from the distortion of time and space. The flames it spewed out of its mouth directly turned the surrounding dozens of kilometers into a sea of fire. Countless people screamed and wailed in the sea of fire.
The weeping of women, the screaming of children, and the wails of the elderly before their death all blend into one, like the painful and tragic songs of countless evil spirits in hell.
Not only in Red Sand City, but also in the time and space distortions that occurred all over the world, there were god-level demons appearing. Those were demons from the future.
"Please God... please save us..." A white-haired old man sat numbly in the ruins, crying loudly at the sky that was turned blood red by the fire.
"Please... save my child... You can even let me die... but my child... my child..." A woman holding her child stood on the roof in despair, looking at the evil spirits around her slaughtering the city like demons. Suddenly she knelt down and kowtowed desperately to the image of Li Xiu in the sky, even though her head was broken and bleeding.
"If you are really God... please save us..."
"What kind of God are you? We are all going to die and you are just going to watch?"
"What a bullshit God! Why are you still worshipping him? He is just a human being after all. How could he sacrifice his life for us? Even if everyone dies, he can still live. He doesn't care whether we live or die."
"Damn it, what are you yelling about? You bastards, why should you let others exchange their lives for yours?"
"God, kill him. We'll make that bastard be buried with us when we die."
"Please...save me...I don't want to die yet..."
Many people begged Li Xiu to exchange his life for theirs.
The situation in Changshengtian was the most tragic. There were several gods in charge of Changshengtian, and it was also a bloody storm at this time.
The demonic equipment was roaring, the sword light was groaning, and all of this seemed so weak and powerless amid the flood of demonic spirits.
"Li Xiu...you selfish ghost...you bastard...do you want everyone in the world to be buried with you? If it were me, I would rather use my life in exchange for the lives of everyone. Even if you don't do it for us, look at your own relatives and friends...they are all going to die...their lives are in your hands..." A trial-taker from the Li family, covered in blood, roared angrily to the sky.
"You want to die, I'll grant your wish." A flash of a knife appeared, and the head of the Li family trial-taker was chopped off. After Jing Li, who was covered in blood, killed the trial-taker, he turned around and continued to fight with the evil spirit.
"Did you see it? This is just the tip of the iceberg. If you and I fight, the future will be a thousand times more miserable than this." Li Boyang did not continue to release purple dragon energy, but looked at Li Xiu coldly and said.
How could Li Xiu not see it? Not only did he see it, he also saw Chu Jun, A Fei, Sha Chu and others fighting bloody battles.
Although they can still hold on under Li Ming'er's protection, they should be able to withstand this attack from the evil spirits.
But just like Li Boyang said, this is just the beginning. If the world is really completely destroyed, how long can they last?
By then, let alone them, even Li Ming'er himself might not be able to protect himself. In the fragmented world, only a few lucky ones could survive by chance, lingering on in a corner of the broken world, exchanging their own lives for the continuation of future generations. Even so, they would inevitably be completely submerged in the long river of history.
"Is there really no choice?" Li Xiu murmured to himself.
"Yes, you live and the world dies, you die and the world lives, what will you choose?" Li Boyang's voice echoed throughout the world.
"God... You are our God... Please save my children... If one life can be exchanged for another... I will exchange my life for theirs... God... Open your eyes and look... I give you my life..." An old man took a look at the child behind him, turned around and slammed his head against the wall with determination, causing his brain to burst and he died.
"dad……"
Li Xiu remained silent. These people had nothing to do with him, and he could harden his heart and ignore them. However, if the situation continued to develop, the next people to die would be those he cared about.
Li Xiu retracted his gaze and looked at Li Boyang, then slowly pulled open the veil of the magic costume, revealing his true face.
When people saw Li Xiu's true appearance, they realized that he was just a young man in his twenties. In an ordinary family, that age would still be like a big child.
"Li Xiu... He is Li Xiu, the lord of the City of Light... It turns out he is God..." Someone screamed and recognized Li Xiu.
It was only then that people realized that the world-famous magic costume master God was actually the lord of the City of Light.
"Li Boyang, since you want me to make a choice, let's take a gamble." Li Xiu looked at Li Boyang and took something out of his arms.
When Li Boyang saw clearly what Li Xiu took out, he couldn't help but squint his eyes, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.
The eyes of all humans and many demons were focused on Li Xiu's hand. They saw that what Li Xiu was holding was actually a small gold coin.
"What do you want to bet on?" Li Boyang asked, looking at the gold coins in Li Xiu's hand.
"Do you know how to use this gold coin?" Li Xiu said, holding the gold coin.
"Do you want to use its power to suppress me? If the person who made it was here, there might be a little possibility. But it's useless in your hands. What's more, it has no energy of its own. To me, it's just a tool." Li Boyang said calmly.
Li Xiu ignored Li Boyang and just looked at the gold coin and said to himself: "I want to bet my life with you, do you dare?"
"I never gamble, and you are not qualified to gamble with me." Li Boyang said with a curled lip.
"That's not up to you." Li Xiu held the gold coin and suddenly injected his light energy into the gold coin.
The gold coin suddenly shone with golden light, turning the green time tunnel into gold.
Li Boyang watched Li Xiu continuously injecting his own light energy into the gold coins, his eyes flashing with excitement.
"This is also a good idea. You put all your energy into it. As long as you can turn it into a key, you can save your life." Li Boyang said, staring at the gold coin shining with golden light.
Li Xiu just said contemptuously: "President, you really treat me like a three-year-old child. If you want to turn it into a key, you probably need more than just energy, right? Otherwise, you don't need to go through so much trouble. You can turn it into a key by just absorbing the energy of this world. Why take such a big risk and force me to this point? If you want to turn it into a key, you need me as a person."
"You are right. The soul and the body are inseparable." Li Boyang did not deny it, but said lightly: "But you have no other choice."
"Of course I have other choices. I can bet my life with you." Li Xiu looked at the gold coins in his hand with burning eyes.
Li Boyang seemed to have figured something out, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately wanted to rush towards Li Xiu.
Unfortunately, he was still a step too late. Li Xiu directly flicked the gold coin between his fingers out. The gold coin, with a dazzling light, spun and flew into the depths of the time tunnel.
