Chapter 866: Chapter 808: Stowaways, Arrival of the Outer Domain Celestial Demons in the Cosmos

As the era developed to this point, those present also caught a glimpse of the future grand trends of the cosmos.

The Multi-dimensional Universe...

It might just become the norm!

In the future, countless future multi-dimensional universes with countless exits will emerge.

Everyone will attempt to guide a certain path of the future into the reality they desire, proceeding with the material progress bar map loading: 3%—10%—30%...

Everyone is trying to load the map.

And does it seem like there are only four future dimensional universes at war?

Not necessarily!

Certainly, the dynasties led by the Four Saints are the strongest, but in the dynasties of the four future timelines, no one knows who the manipulator behind the scenes is.

But there must also be a fifth or sixth, outside of the Saints...

Some new powerful figures from certain eras will also seize the opportunity to enter the game and establish their own era of the Multi-Dimensional Cosmic Dynasty!

The future is bound to be a war of countless dimensions.

Thinking of this, everyone present felt their hearts tumultuous.

Along the journey of history, every future has been absurdly incredible, yet logically stunning, and now this grand future trend is no exception!

Everyone had a sudden thought:

The era is about to level up!

The final battle is approaching, heroes from the multi-dimensional universe era emerge, beginning to seize the supreme throne of the Material God on the 0-level diagram.

After a moment of silence.

"Let’s not worry for now about who is controlling the future 90 billion years from now at 3% loading, mutual suspicion is not good for anyone."

The Emperor said:

"My suggestion is, why don’t we first discuss how to solve this problem, how to reclaim the material, how to counteract the attack of that 3% material dynasty, for I don’t think the other side will be satisfied without attacking us."

The mode of dimensional universe warfare?

Everyone pondered for a moment.

The specifics of this dimensional universe warfare make one curious about how it’s fought.

Atabia smiled and said, "First, this mode of warfare is essentially a resource war, a war of material plunder."

"Secondly, apart from me, the Saint of Time, the other Saints cannot venture into other dimensional universes, cannot act across dimensions... Only the Ancient God armies and mighty figures under their command can mutually assault."

The Saints all nodded.

Of course, the Saints cannot cross dimensions to take action.

Except Atabia, who is the only divine entity of the timeline, the other Saints have an alternate self in the other futures.

In the past, even if that self hasn’t been materialized, the two timelines would collide with each other.... it is still another self.

At that time, a supercosmic paradox at the Saint level arises, and the cosmic laws will collapse.

This is the restriction on the Saints.

With the great dimensional catastrophe upon us, the Saints are restricted!

Only Atabia, the Time God, can cross over to other dimensional dynasties without restriction.

But what use is it if this one Saint can act?

He is the most unique of the Saints, his frontal combat power is non-existent.

Because he is a divine shadow of the Long River of Time, without a physical form.

When he fights, he summons historical heroes from the Long River of Time, like Herodotus and Minis, these Tenth-Layer Ancient Gods, to fight for him.

Thus, a certain cosmic order has formed in the mysterious unknown.

They cannot easily step into the world to raid others next door; they can only nurture the heroes and strong under them to become Outer Domain Celestial Demons, and clandestinely descend into the enemy universe’s dimensions to seize and steal other universes’ material.

"So it should be."

"It looks like, if the Saints do not intervene, the future belongs to the new generation."

The Saints continually nodded.

The general future landscape is already set.

Yet under these rules, when everyone thinks, it suddenly seems unsettling.

How developed is the other side’s future era?

How flourishing is their technology?

They have as many as eight hundred thousand Tenth-Layer Ancient Gods!

Their army is truly terrifying.

After Atabia’s crossing, the other side already knows about the Celestial Realm’s nodes, and the Bridgehead is used as a transit station.

If those guys go along the {Past} time path to send troops here, hide here, keep on stealing, then open the tunnel to take the material back, what are we going to do?

They’ll end up stealing the Celestial Realm dry!

"No, that’s thinking too much." At this point, Elis analyzed, "They have {Past}, knowing the coordinates, so they naturally can cross over to the past here, but to return to the future, they need {Future}."

"Without {Future}, it’s just a one-way ticket; they can come to spend money but can’t go back, which actually benefits us."

Elis’ analysis made everyone feel it was quite reasonable.

What’s the point of stealing?

Without complete Time Authority, you can’t steal back at all!

And while they can’t steal here, we can instead steal their 3% material, making the full journey.

As for sending material to manifest some Saints from that side and fight the "Light Ancient God" of the same era?

It’s naturally impossible!

Because the "Light Ancient God" already took the lead, becoming a True Person first, and the next time material overflows, the Saints can’t compete.

As a Saint without physical form, you can’t compete with a Saint with a physical form.

"The Light Ancient God" only needs to keep an eye on those few Saints, not allowing them to take shape, leaving them helpless.

That person scheming in the shadows, naturally monopolizing that era with various technologies, not allowing other Saints to interfere.

Therefore, sending material over is essentially a fool’s errand.

No one present wants to try, because obviously, it’d be foolish, treating the other as a fool.

"Then should we still send people over to continuously steal the material back?"

Sylph frowned, "Sending ordinary Ancient God prodigies, indeed not easy to be discovered, but the 3% material on their side is really too little! It’s not like our side with such a large map... They have lesser quantity, they keep a close watch, not easy to steal."

The Multi-Dimensional Cosmic Dynasty, indeed interesting.

The larger the country, the easier to attack.

The smaller the country, the harder to eliminate.

"But I think it’s still worth a try to steal," Minis said, "Not afraid of a thief stealing, but afraid of a thief thinking about it; anyway, trying doesn’t cost us much."

They were already discussing sending the Outer Domain Celestial Demon to descend upon that universe and attack the other side.

"No, your logic was wrong from the start."

At this moment, Atabia suddenly shook his head, "They too can come to steal our material."

"Why? Don’t they lack {Future}?" Elis was puzzled, "Even if they come to steal, how can they go back?"

Atabia said calmly, "You don’t truly understand the definitions of past, present, and future."

"What do you think {Now} is? Is it just where we live right now? Of course not, the Long River of Time is not centered on us."

"Anywhere with a material node is {Now}, material is the anchor of everything, dividing past and future."

"You mean?" The Emperor furrowed his brow.

"Yes, the other side is already another {Now}, and we are also {Now}, so in a certain sense, we hold equal status."

"For the other side to cross over, they do not need {Future}; with {Now} authority, they can shift {Now} to traverse back and forth."

"And {Now} is only in the tenth part of the Time Diagram; once someone further comprehends the Time Diagram, the other side can come over."

The Time Diagram, the most challenging part, always remains the future!

Taking up over half the entire Time Diagram’s greatest space and difficulty, because the future is the most mysterious and infinite.

"So, we do not have home field advantage."

Elis continued to frown, "We can steal theirs, and they can steal ours. It’s about whose Outer Domain Celestial Demon can better harass each other’s universe, causing disasters, delaying each other’s civilization progress, and assassinating each other’s talents."

As their voices trailed off, suddenly, the sky ripped open violently with a time fissure.

Someone was actually beginning to smuggle through.

With a swift crack.

In just an instant, it closed, and the aura of another’s descent flashed by.

It’s like a presence similar to the previous Eliminate Traces and the main characters in Red Robe sneaking in, hidden in the shadows.

"Trouble, this time they really made it over."

Nokron, who presided over the Celestial Realm, fell into complete silence, ordering, "Activate the previous trap mode, start capturing these Outer Domain Celestial Demons!"

"Yes." Sylph turned and left.
