Chapter 569: The Long-Term Foreshadowing
Bai Yan had remained inside the witch’s body all along.
Through Merete Chambers’ senses, he could experience the outside world, and an overwhelming urge to touch Kaluoer and Maryse’s cheeks and hair arose within him.
However, he ultimately resisted the temptation.
The time had not yet come.
He reminded himself sternly.
If he didn’t keep his composure now, it would be difficult to explain himself later.
After the light faded, the group departed amidst the crowd’s embrace.
They were heading for a different world.
Bai Yan soon sensed a shift in the surroundings.
The scene before his eyes abruptly changed.
Had they arrived?
They were now looking at a canyon entirely made of crystals. An extraordinary view greeted them: vast fields of translucent, pale blue crystals stretching endlessly, an incredibly beautiful sight.
“Looks like this is the Tylor civilization,” he commented telepathically through the witch.
“Hmm, that’s right,” Merete Chambers responded with a soft nod, her lips forming her usual smile.
Alan furrowed his brow. “Is this the Tylor civilization? We’re supposed to go to the main planet of the Tylor civilization. According to Merete Chambers’ intelligence, the Final Stele is located on the first main planet.”
Amy, sitting in her wheelchair, explained, “This is actually a satellite planet of the Tylor civilization. We can’t go straight to the main planet. We need to stop at one of its satellites first… Going directly could lead to complications.”
Maryse blinked in confusion. “What do you mean by ‘complications’?”
Amy continued, “The Tylor civilization’s main planet is guarded by the powerful ‘God of Law.’ Anyone—human or not—who tries to travel there without proper authorization will face immediate attack. Most would be obliterated. The God of Law is a major force among the higher gods.”
Her words implied that even someone as powerful as herself would be wise to respect the God of Law.
Amy paused before adding, “What I mean is, we need to follow the correct procedures to get there, not just sneak in. Understand?”
Aurora nodded in agreement. “I get it now. It’s a defense system based on the authority of higher gods… After all, this civilization is immense, having agreements with a dozen gods, ruling hundreds of universes, and countless planets. They’re truly formidable.”
Bai Yan was already aware of this. Among the countless civilizations in the multiverse, the Tylor civilization was undeniably one of the most powerful, ranking among the top tier.
For such an enormous entity, annihilating individual gods was trivial.
“So, what’s next?” Ganis asked, folding his arms.
“Amy said, ‘We just need to wait,'” replied Amy.
“Is that all we can do—wait?” Ganis inquired.
“Mmm, I’ve already done some research. Soon, I’ll…”
Before Amy could finish her sentence, a “figure” suddenly appeared before them. It wasn’t a human shape, but rather a “horse.”
It appeared to be a unicorn made of liquid silver. This unicorn stood over two meters tall and lacked facial features. Instead, there were six circular openings on its chest—resembling eyes, though they might have been air vents. Its horn, glowing with platinum light, bore a halo filled with shifting, incomprehensible symbols. It was clearly linked to the so-called “Great Law.”
A voice resonated in their minds.
[Greetings, esteemed guests! Welcome to the Silver Horn Manor… My name is ‘Pie’.]
Alan and the others were completely baffled. “The Silver Horn Manor? ‘Pie’?” they asked.
[Yes, this is where I, along with fifty-two other Silver Horn unicorns, reside. This planet is our home.]
On a planet resembling a grand manor, a family of beings resided. Most of them, except for Merete Chambers and Amy, found it hard to believe.
The unicorn stood in front of them, continuing its telepathic message.
[Please, come and take a look. The people of the Tylor civilization are very friendly.]
Evie, looking worried, spoke up. “Wait, we need to go to the first main star of the Tylor civilization. How do we go about applying for the necessary procedures?”
Kaluoer had been silent throughout the journey, but her expression showed concern.
[Alright, I will assist you with the application process, but please be patient—interstellar communications take time…]
The silver unicorn nodded, and its horn—the “Great Law”—glowed twice, seemingly sending some kind of signal.
Everyone stood still, surprised by how accommodating the unicorn appeared to be.
[Still no reply? In the meantime, would you like to see my work?]
The group hesitated but reluctantly agreed and followed the unicorn named “Pie.”
They soon reached the place where “Pie” worked.
In truth, Pie wasn’t doing anything urgent. He was merely adjusting the ground and sky in a crystal field… sometimes forming meadows, sometimes creating oceans, altering the sky’s color, or filling the land with stones of different colors.
“What’s the point of this? Why are we constantly changing the landscape, resetting it again and again?” Ganis questioned.
[I am painting.]
[To secure a top-three ranking in the Universe Painting Contest and earn appreciation from the Council, along with points from the Great Law, I must do this.]
Painting?
Ganis couldn’t comprehend it anymore. Creating such chaos and altering the natural environment, all just for painting?
Merete Chambers interjected, “Some extraordinary beings may possess tremendous individual strength, but compared to these ancient, colossal civilizations, they’re like newcomers who don’t understand the ways of the world.”
Ganis shook his head. “As long as I can fight, I don’t care if I’m primitive!”
[Look here, everyone. This new patch of sea I’ve created—its waves per minute don’t align with current aesthetic standards, but it’s a challenging detail to manage…]
[And this grass patch—it doesn’t align perfectly with the nearby stone wall. There’s a 0.05mm deviation. Embarrassingly, my skills aren’t refined enough, and the deviation is quite noticeable.]
The unicorn’s voice grew more animated.
But no one knew how to respond, so they remained silent.
Bai Yan suddenly took control of Merete Chambers’ body and spoke through her:
“It’s said that the Original People, the most powerful beings in the multiverse, often nurture primitive civilizations like they’re playing a simulation game…”
[The Original People are indeed very powerful. We admire them greatly. In fact, the Tylor civilization also received enlightenment from the Original People long ago… Just a moment.]
Pie paused, seemingly a bit embarrassed.
[Apologies, but your application to visit the first star of the 416 universe has been rejected.]
“What?” Alan clenched his fists.
This situation was getting complicated. They couldn’t just immigrate illegally, or they’d provoke the God of Law.
“No matter what, even if we get attacked, we should try anyway.”
Before he could say more, Amy showed him a video. Alan watched as the God of Law effortlessly extinguished a sun.
“Forget I said anything,” he muttered, feeling terrified.
The unicorn continued.
[However, the situation has changed. One of the immortal dragon princes from the council wishes to meet you all.]
Immortal dragons?
One of the nine divine-level dragon clans, which led the Tylor civilization?
Alan nodded. “Alright, where should we meet him?”
They had to try for a chance to reach the main star. Everyone agreed with no objections.
[“No need to meet him. He is coming here right now,” Pie informed them.]
The next moment.
A powerful vortex shook the air.
Soon, a magnificent silver-white dragon, hundreds of meters tall, appeared out of nowhere, exuding a terrifying presence.
Its gaze was fiery, fixed on the group, yet despite its imposing appearance, there were noticeable dark circles beneath its eyes.
[“Ah, it’s you, the one who summoned me back then,” it spoke.]
A voice full of ancient wisdom rang out, and everyone realized it was addressing Maryse.
Everyone glanced at Maryse, who stood frozen in shock.
“What?” she exclaimed.
She couldn’t remember anything about this.
The witch squinted and observed the giant dragon. “Hmm, a Divine Dragon of Time.”
